                          INVOICE DISCOUNTING AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT IS MADE ON: the last date shown for the signatures of the parties
at the end of this document.

BETWEEN:

        (1)     THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND COMMERCIAL SERVICES LIMITED

                ("We/Us") and

        (2)     THE CLIENT NAMED IN THE CLIENT PARTICULARS ("You")

1.      INTRODUCTION

1.1     This Agreement applies only to those Debts specified in the Schedule at
        the end of this document created by you under whatever trading name or
        style you may ever carry on business. We may later extend or reduce the
        scope of this Agreement to such Debts as we agree in writing signed by
        both you and us. Certain words used in this document have special
        meanings which are explained in the Annexe of Definitions. Their first
        letter is in capitals.

1.2     You will sell to us with full title guarantee and we will purchase from
        you all Debts to which this Agreement applies which are created after
        the date of this Agreement and until its termination. You will also
        Offer to us all Debts to which this Agreement applies which are
        Outstanding on the date this Agreement is made.

2.      START AND LENGTH OF RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US

2.1     This Agreement shall start on the date it is made and it will run for
        the minimum period shown in the Schedule. After the end of the minimum
        period our relationship with you will then continue until ended by
        either you or us giving to the other notice of at least the minimum
        shown in the Schedule. Such notice may be given at any time, even during
        the minimum period, provided it runs out on or after the end of the
        minimum period. During any period of notice you will continue to comply
        with all your obligations to us.

2.2     Should this Agreement end within the minimum period shown in the
        Schedule you must pay us a sum equal to the shortfall between the amount
        of the minimum service charge that would have been earned had this
        Agreement continued for the minimum period, and the service charges
        actually earned.

2.3     Should you wish to end this Agreement but give us notice of less than
        the minimum shown in the Schedule we may still agree to your request,
        subject to an additional fee. For each month or part of a month that
        your notice falls short of the minimum notice period the fee will be the
        higher of:

        2.3.1   the monthly average of the service charges earned in the six
                calendar months

<PAGE>

                before we agree to accept your request; or

        2.3.2   one twelfth of the minimum service charge for the twelve
                calendar months before we agree to accept your request.

2.4     We can also immediately end this Agreement by giving you written notice
        at any time after a Termination Event.

3.      OUR OWNERSHIP OF DEBTS, OFFERS AND CLIENT ADVICES

3.1     As soon as possible on or after the date of this Agreement you will
        deliver an Offer in respect of each Initial Debt Outstanding together
        with its Related Rights. If we wish to accept an Offer, this will be
        done by crediting the Notified Value of each accepted Debt to the
        Receivables Purchased Account. Upon doing so our ownership of such
        accepted Debt shall be complete and the Debt thereby assigned to us.

3.2     You hereby transfer to us the ownership of all Debts and in addition you
        hereby assign to us all Scottish Debts (in each case together with their
        Related Rights) created after the date of this Agreement until the
        ending of this Agreement. Our ownership of such Debts shall be complete
        and they shall vest in us the moment they are created even though such
        Debts may not yet be Notified to us.

3.3     During the life of this Agreement you will enter the Debts and any
        relative credits onto your Customers' accounts following Delivery of the
        Goods and send us a Client Advice of them, unless they are
        Non-Notifiable Debts. Immediately you make any Adjustments you will send
        us details of them on a Client Advice.

4.      PURCHASE PRICE OF DEBTS

4.1     The Purchase Price of the Debts covered by this Agreement is to be the
        amount received by us towards the discharge of the Debts but less:

        4.1.1   Customers' prompt settlement discounts later claimed; and

        4.1.2   any other later claimed Customers' deductions, abatements or
                set-offs; and

        4.1.3   the discounting charges and service charges; and

        4.1.4   all other sums due to us.

5.      LIMITS AND PERCENTAGES

5.1     The Limits (except Funding Limits) shall, to start with, be as stated in
        the Schedule. We may at any time increase or decrease any or all of the
        Limits with immediate effect.

5.2     We will tell you of any changes to the Limits (except Funding Limits).
        We can tell you by written notice, oral advice or making the same
        available through FacFlow, even if no enquiry be made.

5.3     We may also set up a Funding Limit for each Customer, and will tell you
        of any balance which exceeds it.

5.4     No Prepayments will be available against Debts in excess of a Funding
        Limit. If, following a reduction of a Funding Limit, the amount of
        Prepayments already made exceeds your

<PAGE>

        Availability, the excess must be paid back immediately to us.

6.      DECISIONS

6.1     We need not give reasons for any of our decisions and all decisions and
        information given by us are confidential. You must treat any information
        regarding Funding Limits as legally privileged and will indemnify us
        against all claims arising from breach of your duty of confidentiality.
        You must not take Funding Limits as our view of the creditworthiness or
        otherwise of a Customer. We do not operate a credit reference service.

7.      DISPUTES

7.1     If any Customer disputes a Debt or his liability to pay by its due date
        or asserts any counterclaim or claim for reduction of or retention or
        set-off against a Debt (except for a settlement discount not exceeding
        7.5%), then:

        7.1.1   you must promptly give us full details; and

        7.1.2   you must do your best to settle all such disputes and claims
                promptly and directly with your Customers.

7.2     You must promptly raise a credit note if a Customer is entitled to one.
        Unless we have brought clause 7.3 into effect you must immediately
        deliver the credit note to the Customer and include its details on your
        next Client Advice. The credit note will be debited to the Receivables
        Purchased Account.

7.3     We may at any time write and tell you either that no credit notes can be
        despatched to your Customers without our prior consent or that any
        credit notes must be sent to us for our consent before we then despatch
        them.

7.4     Clauses 7.1 to 7.3 shall not affect those rights which we may have
        because this Agreement has been breached.

8.      OUR ACCOUNTS

8.1     The Notified Value of all Debts will be credited to our account known as
        the "Receivables Purchased Account". The balance on this account is our
        record of the prospective Purchase Price of Debts before any of the
        deductions used under clause 4.1 to calculate the Purchase Price.

8.2     You may also take Prepayments from us in respect of Debts credited to
        the Receivables Purchased Account. These payments will be debited to
        both the Receivables Purchased Account and to the Memorandum Discounting
        Statement. The amount taken must not exceed either your Availability or
        the Prepayment review level set by us from time to time. In our absolute
        discretion we may permit payments in excess of the Availability or
        Prepayment review level but subject to clause 9.8. Your Availability
        will immediately be affected if any Debt later becomes an Ineligible
        Debt.

8.3     We may debit the Receivables Purchased Account and the Memorandum
        Discounting Statement with all other sums you owe us. If the debit
        balance on the Memorandum Discounting Statement results in a negative
        Availability you must immediately pay the excess to us without our
        having to ask you.

<PAGE>

8.4     The value of any Remittance received by us will be credited to the
        Memorandum Discounting Statement with an effective date for calculating
        discounting charges as follows:

        8.4.1   if in cleared funds by electronic means to the specific account
                we tell you for such purpose - the working day following the day
                that we actually obtain an advice from our bank that they have
                received the Remittance;

        8.4.2   other Remittances paid into our bank account - four working days
                after the date of lodgement by you of such Remittance, provided:

                o       for FacFlow users, you record the lodgement in FacFlow
                        on the same date it is made and tell us by means of a
                        FacFlow Transmission within such four working day
                        period. If your FacFlow Transmission takes place later,
                        the effective date for calculating discounting charges
                        will be the date of this transmission; or

                o       for non FacFlow users, we receive a duplicate bank
                        paying-in slip, duly stamped by the receiving bank,
                        within the four working day period. If we receive the
                        paying-in slip later, the effective date for calculating
                        discounting charges will be the date of such receipt.

8.5     The balance on the Memorandum Discounting Statement will reflect:

        8.5.1   payments taken by you;

        8.5.2   any sums owed by you to us; and

        8.5.3   any Remittances received by us.

8.6     If the Memorandum Discounting Statement shows a credit balance we will
        normally pay this to you without your asking us but, at our discretion,
        we may withhold amounts equal to:

        8.6.1   any credit balances on Customers' accounts; and

        8.6.2   the amount of Your Responsibility.

8.7     We cannot let you take any credit balance from your Memorandum
        Discounting Statement after we have been told of the issue of a petition
        for your sequestration, bankruptcy or winding up. Provided that we do
        not exercise any of our rights under clause 17 we shall need to see a
        court order dismissing the petition before starting payments again.

8.8     We may at any time add together the balances on all accounts recording
        transactions between you and us. We may also at any time apply or
        set-off any amounts owing by you to us and the amount of Your
        Responsibility against any amounts owing by us to you. Where any amounts
        due by you to us, including those prospectively and contingently due,
        cannot immediately be found out we may make a reasonable estimate.

<PAGE>

8.9     We will provide you with statements of the Receivables Purchased Account
        and the Memorandum Discounting Statement. These shall be treated as
        correct and binding upon you, except for those errors which shall be
        obvious or contrary to law or where we receive your written notice
        within 10 days of our despatch of such statements to you.

8.10    You will accept a certificate signed by our Company Secretary or a
        director of ours as to all or any of the following on the date referred
        to in the certificate:

        8.10.1  the balance on the Memorandum Discounting Statement;

        8.10.2  the balance on the Receivables Purchased Account;

        8.10.3  any loss or damage suffered by us;

        8.10.4  the amount of Your Responsibility;

        8.10.5  any other amount payable to us.

        In any proceedings such certificate shall be conclusive evidence as to
        the balance, loss, damage or amount on the date so certified.

8.11    If we ask you to do anything you will pay all costs and expenses of
        doing so. If you do not carry out anything which we have a right to ask
        for then we may do it and you will pay all our costs and expenses.

8.12    All payments due from you to us shall be made in immediately available
        funds free and clear of any right of retention, set-off or counterclaim
        or any other withholding or deduction. If you are required by law to
        make any withholding or deduction, you will pay such additional sum
        needed so that we receive the full amount due to us under this
        Agreement.

9.      CHARGES AND INDEMNITIES

9.1     You will pay us the discounting charge which shall accrue from day to
        day. It will be worked out at the rate shown in the Schedule on the
        debit balance on the Memorandum Discounting Statement. Any payment to
        you will be debited to the Memorandum Discounting Statement on the day
        that we initiate the transfer.

9.2     The discounting charge shall be debited daily to the Receivables
        Purchased Account and to the Memorandum Discounting Statement. Any debit
        to the Memorandum Discounting Statement shall be treated as a Prepayment
        for the purpose of working out the discounting charge.

9.3     We shall be entitled to a service charge at the rate shown in the
        Schedule for each Notified Debt. The service charge covers:

<PAGE>

        9.3.1   licence to use FacFlow;

        9.3.2   provision of a monthly statement; and

        9.3.3   assisting reconciliation of your and our respective sales ledger
                records and cash receipts.

        We shall debit the service charge to the Receivables Purchased Account
        and to the Memorandum Discounting Statement at the end of each calendar
        month. No refund of any service charges can be made either if a credit
        note is issued or if this Agreement ends.

9.4     If the total of all service charges in each period shown in the Schedule
        falls short of the sum needed during that period to reach the minimum
        service charge you will pay us the shortfall. If we consider such
        shortfall likely then we may debit it to the Receivables Purchased
        Account and to the Memorandum Discounting Statement.

9.5     If this Agreement does not end on the last day of a period for the
        calculation of the minimum service charge then when the Agreement does
        end you will pay us the minimum service charge to the end of such
        period.

9.6     Payments to you will be made by BACS or CHAPS or such other method we
        may at any time advise you. Any administration charges to you for such
        payments will be at the rates advised in our pricing tariff, from time
        to time.

9.7     If our bankers charge us, you will repay to us their charges for:

        9.7.1   dealing with dishonoured Remittances;

        9.7.2   collecting any Remittances in a currency other than Sterling;

        9.7.3   collecting Remittances in Sterling drawn on a bank outside the
                United Kingdom.

9.8     You will pay us a facility fee at the rate shown in the Schedule on each
        anniversary of this Agreement. You will also pay us an arrangement fee
        for any variation of this Agreement requested by you or any additional
        service provided outside its scope. If we permit payments in excess of
        your Availability, we may also make an additional facility charge until
        the excess is repaid. This will not affect any other rights we may have.
        For setting up FacFlow for you, providing training in its use, providing
        new versions or updates, you will pay the related fees as from time to
        time set out in our pricing tariff.

9.9     If we make special visits to your premises or anywhere else then you
        will pay all our costs and expenses.

9.10    You will fully indemnify us against all losses, costs, demands,
        disbursements, fees and expenses of:

        9.10.1  obtaining the release of Debts from charges, trusts or other
                encumbrances or enforcing such release;

        9.10.2  assignments or reassignments of Debts or Related Rights or
                giving notices of assignment or reassignment;

        9.10.3  taking guarantees or indemnities from any person, including a
                receiver;

<PAGE>

        9.10.4  enforcing either this Agreement or any guarantee or indemnity
                given in respect of it;

        9.10.5  all matters arising from any breach by you of this Agreement or
                the occurrence of a Termination Event;

        9.10.6  any Customer failing to pay a Debt at its full Notified Value;

        9.10.7  any solicitor or agent engaged to collect Debts or conduct legal
                proceedings concerning Debts and all legal fees and
                disbursements payable to any other party to such proceedings.

9.11    Changes to the discounting charge, the service charge and the minimum
        service charge shall only be effective if in writing signed by both you
        and us.

9.12    VAT, if applicable, will be added to all fees and charges quoted by us.

9.13    You will pay us immediately on demand any amount which we have to pay to
        any Customer by way of refund claimed under a direct debit guarantee
        given by us.

10.     REPURCHASE

10.1    We may at any time require you to Repurchase an Ineligible Debt from us.

10.2    Should we require you to Repurchase Debts from us we will continue to
        own all such Debts until we receive the price for all Repurchases. At
        this point we shall transfer them back to you. We shall then account to
        you for any further sums received by us from your Customers in respect
        of such Debts.

11.     AGENCY

11.1    We alone shall have sole and absolute discretion as to how to collect
        and enforce payment of Debts. We can do this in whatever way we see fit.
        Until we exercise our rights under clause 11.5 you must, at your
        expense, collect Debts and manage Customers' accounts for us as our
        undisclosed agent. You are not our agent for any other purpose.

11.2    Throughout the term of this Agreement you must ensure that all Debts are
        promptly and correctly recorded in your Accounting Records and that your
        sales ledger control bears a conspicuous notation that Debts have been
        sold and assigned to us.

11.3    During your agency we may communicate in your name with Customers for
        the purposes of Debt verification.

11.4    You must act promptly and efficiently when carrying out your duties as
        our agent.

11.5    We may at any time vary the terms of your agency as we see fit. If we
        request you will give notice to each Customer that we are the owner of
        all your present and future Debts. We will tell you the wording of the
        notice which we can also give on your behalf. Unless we state otherwise,
        such request will act as a cancellation of your agency, whereupon we
        alone shall be entitled to collect and enforce payment of all Debts in
        whatever way we see fit. You will fully co-operate with us and, as we
        direct, will help us to collect Debts.

<PAGE>

11.6    After the cancellation of your agency:

                11.6.1  you must not say you are our agent;

                11.6.2  you must immediately send us your Accounting Records to
                        do with Debts;

                11.6.3  we will maintain your Customers' accounts in the form of
                        a sales ledger;

                        which is less than the Notified Value of the Debt

12.     TRUSTS AND OTHER RIGHTS

12.1    From the moment that you receive any Remittance, you will hold it
        absolutely in trust for us. We may give notice to anyone that such trust
        exists.

12.2    When you receive a Remittance you must:

<PAGE>

        12.2.1  immediately pay it into our bank account, or into a trust bank
                account in your name;

        12.2.2  not pay it into any other account or deal with or negotiate it.

12.3    A trust bank account must be run according to our instructions. This
        means that we may irrevocably appoint our officers as the only people
        who can authorise transactions on the account.

12.4    You must authorise and indemnify our bankers so that they can credit our
        bank account with any transfers received from your bankers or your
        Customers' bankers and so they can collect the proceeds of any
        Remittances payable to you or your agents.

12.5    You must give us a letter addressed to your bankers instructing them to
        transfer to our bankers any cheques, bank giro transfers, BACS, CHAPS
        and other electronically transferred funds that may be received by your
        bank from Customers. You will not be able to cancel such instructions.

12.6    If we do not become the owner of any Debt or its Related Rights covered
        by this Agreement for any reason then you will be treated as holding
        such Debt or its Related Rights on trust for us free from all
        encumbrances.

12.7    You must promptly tell us about all Returned Goods. We may require you
        to set these aside marked with our name as the owner. You will then
        deliver them to us, or deal with them as we direct. We can, without
        notice, enter any premises where we believe Returned Goods or any other
        items comprised in the Related Rights are kept. We can take possession
        of or sell any Returned Goods on such terms and at such prices as we
        consider appropriate. We shall credit the net proceeds towards the
        discharge of the relative Debts. If we ask, you will deliver to us or
        allow us to take away any other items included in the Related Rights
        which we may deal with as we see fit. 13. YOUR UNDERTAKINGS TO US

15.13   Subject to clause 15.12, you and we will give each FacFlow Transmission
        the same status as if it had been in writing, signed on behalf of the
        sender and physically delivered to the recipient, unless the FacFlow
        Transmission can be shown to have been corrupted as a result of
        technical failure. FacFlow Transmissions shall be treated as satisfying
        any legal requirement for a communication to be in writing. You waive
        any rights to challenge the validity of any FacFlow Transmission on the
        ground that it was prepared and/or sent and/or received only in
        electronic form.

15.14   A FacFlow Transmission regarding Initial Debts shall be treated as
        including the following words:

        "IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INVOICE DISCOUNTING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ROYAL
        BANK OF SCOTLAND COMMERCIAL SERVICES LIMITED AND OURSELVES THE DEBTS
        REFERRED TO IN THIS FACFLOW TRANSMISSION SHALL BE CONSIDERED AS BEING
        SUBJECT TO AN OFFER

16.     INFORMATION FOR US

16.1    You must give us a signed copy of your full set of accounts, including
        your directors' or partners' (as the case may be) and auditor's report
        or such other financial reports as we request, for each of your
        accounting reference periods (as defined in the Companies Act 1985). You
        must give us these items as soon as you have them, which must be no
        later than six months from the end of each accounting period.

16.2    You must give us your management profit and loss account and balance
        sheet at such intervals as we tell you. You will also give us such other
        financial reports that we may ask for and you will ensure that your
        auditors or external accountants report to us directly any information
        that we require. If we ask you will provide us with a copy of your
        partnership agreement and any amendments, if you are a limited liability
        partnership.

        Schedule:

        16.3.1  an aged analysis of Debts on the basis specified in the Schedule
                and correct to the last day of the preceding month. The ageing
                must also identify those Customers' accounts which are either in
                dispute or have been passed to solicitors, debt collectors or
                other third parties for collection;

        16.3.2  copy Customers' statements for the same period as in clause
                16.3.1;

        your business premises or locations under your control in order to:

        16.4.1  inspect Goods, stocks, Sale Contracts and evidence of their
                performance;

        16.4.2  verify, check, remove or be provided with copies of all

        to act on your behalf and the same shall be binding upon you.

17.     TERMINATION EVENTS

17.1    In addition to the right of either you or us to give notice to the other
        to end this Agreement under clause 2.1, we may immediately end it at any

        17.1.4  if you have an obligation to a third party for repayment of

                maturity date or you do not pay it when due;

        17.1.5  any change in your directors or partners (as the case may be)

                referred to in the Schedule;

        17.1.9  your Insolvency including but not limited to the appointment of,
                or the giving of notice of intention to appoint, an
                administrator under the Insolvency Act 1986 or the coming into
                effect of a moratorium under the Insolvency Act 2000 or taking
                any steps towards such moratorium;

        17.1.10 the Insolvency or death of any person who has given a guarantee
                or indemnity for your obligations to us, or the service of a

                legal disability of that person;

        17.1.11 if any Associate factors or discounts its debts with another
                party or is threatened with Insolvency proceedings or becomes
                Insolvent;

        17.1.12 your failure to comply with the minimum notification
                requirements shown in the Schedule.

17.2    Upon your Insolvency, ceasing to trade, failure to repay the entire
        Repurchase price under clause 17.4.1 or our cancelling your agency
        referred to in clause 11.5, we may:

        17.2.1  immediately debit your Receivables Purchased Account and
                Memorandum Discounting Statement with an additional service
                charge of five per cent of the Notified Value of the Debts then
                Outstanding or Notified to us thereafter in order

<PAGE>

                to cover our additional administrative work; and

        17.2.2  immediately increase the discounting charge by two per cent.

17.3    Upon or at any time after a Termination Event, which in good faith we
        reasonably and honestly consider prejudices our position (whether or not
        we use our right immediately to end this Agreement), we may do any or
        all of the following:

        17.3.1  upon making the information available through FacFlow (whether
                or not you access FacFlow):

                o       reduce the Prepayment percentage to zero or such other
                        figure as we may decide;

                o       designate all or any Outstanding Debts as Ineligible
                        Debts;

                o       create a special reserve against your Availability to
                        cover Your Responsibility;

                o       consolidate the balances on all accounts recording
                        transactions between you and us;

        17.3.2  demand that you pay us immediately any debit balance on the
                Client Account that exceeds the lesser of either your
                Availability or the Prepayment review level set by us from time
                to time or any balance due to us after such consolidation plus
                in each case service charges and discounting charges accrued but
                not yet debited and an amount equal to all credit balances on
                Customers' accounts;

        17.3.3  require you to Repurchase any Debts then Outstanding;

        17.3.4  delay at least ten calendar days, to allow for cheque
                clearances, before paying to you any credit balance on the
                Memorandum Discounting Statement.

        In connection with a Termination Event set out in clause 17.1.1 we want
        you to be aware that the following matters will usually be considered as
        prejudicing our position:

                o       your breach of sub-clauses 7.1, 7.2, 11.1, 11.2, 11.5,
                        11.6, 12.2 and 12.7;

                o       your failure duly to honour any payment obligation to
                        us;

                o       your breach of any undertaking in clause 13 or any
                        warranty in clause 14;

                o       your breach of clause 16.

        However this list is not exhaustive and there may well be other
        situations where a Termination Event prejudices our position.

        Within 30 days of our exercising our rights under sub-clauses 17.3.1
        (points 1 and 2) or

<PAGE>

        taking action under clause 17.3.2 or 17.3.3 you may give notice to us
        immediately to end this Agreement.

17.4    Upon the ending of this Agreement, for whatever reason:

        17.4.1  you must Repurchase all Outstanding Debts from us at a price
                equivalent to the debit balance on the Memorandum Discounting
                Statement and all other sums due to us;

        17.4.2  you will not attempt to cancel any notices of assignment given
                to Customers or attempt to collect Debts until you have paid the
                Repurchase price under clause 17.4.1 and we shall continue to
                own all Debts until so paid;

        17.4.3  you will be responsible for all credit balances on Customers'
                accounts and indemnify us in respect of all claims for them;

        17.4.4  you will not Notify us of any Debts arising after the date on
                which this Agreement ends; and

        17.4.5  we shall pay you any credit balance on the Memorandum
                Discounting Statement less the amount of Your Responsibility but
                allowing at least ten calendar days for cheque clearances.

17.5    Except as otherwise provided, the ending of this Agreement shall not
        affect our respective rights and obligations in respect of:

        17.5.1  any Debts which shall have come into existence prior to such
                termination; and

        17.5.2  all transactions or events having their inception prior to such
                termination, including the continued running of the discounting
                charge and our rights to set-off monies or combine accounts.

        Such rights and obligations shall remain in full force and effect until
        all monies due from you shall have been received by us and all monies
        due from us to you shall have been paid.

17.6    Any discharge of your obligations to us shall be of no effect to the
        extent that any receipt by us shall later be set aside under insolvency
        law.

18.     POWER TO ACT IN YOUR NAME

18.1    To ensure that you carry out your obligations to us and as security for
        all sums which shall become due to us, you irrevocably appoint us and

        Agreement. They are not exclusive of each other or of any rights or
        remedies given to us by law. If we choose not to enforce or cannot
        enforce any term or condition, this will not affect our right to enforce
        the rest of the Agreement or to enforce that term or condition at a
        later date. Also, such rights and remedies shall not be affected if we
        compromise with any Customer.

24.3    This Agreement is considered by both you and us to be reasonable. Should
        any part of it be

<PAGE>

        valid only if some other part were deleted then the Agreement will apply
        as if it were so deleted. The remainder of this Agreement will not be
        affected by such deletion.

24.4    Except where clauses 5.1 (where we may change Limits at our complete
        discretion) and 9.11 apply, changes to the Agreement can be made between
        you and us in any way but will only come into effect on the date stated

        stated upon despatching such confirmation.
