Participant by such time, then by 10:00 a.m. Elkhart time on the next banking
day.

<PAGE>

         The participation sold under this agreement shall constitute a sale,
without recourse to the Lead Bank, of an undivided interest in the Lead Bank's
interest in the Loans, the Lead Bank's commitment (if any) to make the Loans,
the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents
including principal, interest, and fees, and any collateral securing the Loans.

         Participant represents and warrants to Lead Bank that Participant has,
independently and without reliance on Lead Bank, made its own credit analysis
and performed such due diligence as Participant deems appropriate and will
continue to be responsible for making its own independent evaluation of the
credit, financial condition, and all other matters concerning the Borrower.

         Section 3. Application of Collections. Lead Bank shall receive all
Collections and apply them on each Resettlement Date pro-rata, together with
pro-rata interest, in accordance with the respective percentage participation of
Lead Bank and Participant in the Loan. If after Lead Bank has paid Participant
its pro-rata portion of any Collections such payment must be paid back by Lead
Bank for any reason, Participant will pay on demand to Lead Bank the
Participant's pro-rata portion of the amount that must be paid back by Lead
Bank, together with Participant's pro-rata portion of any interest or penalties
payable thereon. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Lead Bank
shall have no obligation to attempt to collect any Loan in preference and
priority over the collection and/or enforcement of any other debt of the
Borrower to the Lead Bank. The Lead Bank, however, agrees that the proceeds of
all collateral directly securing repayment of the Loans shall be applied first
to the payment of the Loans.

         Section 4. Documentation. Lead Bank has delivered to Participant a copy
of the Loan Documents and Lead Bank will deliver to Participant copies of all
future extensions and modifications thereof and replacements therefor. All
additional documents on file with Lead Bank concerning the Loan Documents, the
Loan or this Participation Agreement shall be available at Lead Bank's office
for Participant's inspection at reasonable times on reasonable notice to Lead
Bank. The Lead Bank shall promptly furnish to the Participant copies of all
financial statements received from the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Documents.
The Lead Bank shall promptly notify the Participant of the occurrence of any
event of default under any of the Loan Documents of which the Lead Bank has
actual knowledge and of any information as to any actual or potential event of
default received by the Lead Bank from any source which the Lead Bank believes
to be accurate and reliable. The Lead Bank shall, however, have no
responsibility to the Participant for any errors or omissions in any such
reports, financial statements or other information. The Participant may at any
time request other information and/or documents in the Lead Bank's possession
relating to the Loans. That information and/or documents shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

Section 5.  Lead's Administration.

(a) The Note, all Collateral and the Loan shall be held by Lead Bank and dealt
with in Lead Bank's name on Participant's behalf. Lead Bank will service, manage
andcollect the Loan and the Collateral in the ordinary course of business and in
accordance with Lead Bank's usual practices. It is agreed that Lead Bank may use

<PAGE>

its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising
Lead Bank's rights, or waiving Lead Bank's rights, with respect to the Loan.
Subject only to considerations of prudent banking practices, Lead Bank shall
have the sole discretion concerning the initiation, prosecution, settlement or
termination of collection proceedings if the Loan becomes in default. Lead Bank
will examine the Collateral and Borrower's books and records relating to the
Loan as Lead Bank deems necessary.

(b) Lead Bank may, in its sole discretion, without notice to or consent by
Participant, and subject only to considerations of prudent banking practices,
extend, modify or replace the Note or release or otherwise deal in any of the
Collateral or release any guarantor of the obligations of Borrower.

(c) The Lead Bank shall exercise the same care in administering the Loans as it
would if the Loans were made entirely for the Lead Bank's own account, but Lead
Bank shall not be liable to Participant for any action taken or omitted or for
any error in judgment, except for Lead Bank's own bad faith.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 5(a) (b) and (c) above, the Lead Bank shall not
without the consent of the Participant (a) agree to any material amendment or
modification of any of the Loan Documents, including any waiver of any financial
covenants and any amendment which would extend the maturity of any Loan,
increase the amount of any Loan, or reduce the interest on any Loan; (b) release
any security for any Loan other than in accordance with the express provisions
of the Loan Documents; (c) commence any legal proceeding to collect any Loan; or
(d) take any action to seize, foreclose, sell or transfer any collateral. If the
Participant's consent shall be requested but denied, the Lead Bank may (but
shall have no obligation to) repurchase the participation evidenced by this
agreement for a price equal to the outstanding balance of the Participant's
interest in the Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees payable under
the Reimbursement Agreements to the date of such repurchase.

         Section 6. Expenses. All expenses of receiving Collections, including,
but not limited to, attorney's fees, court costs and disbursements, shall be
shared pro-rata by Participant and Lead Bank in accordance with their respective
percentage interests. Participant's portion of such expenses shall be payable to
Lead Bank on demand. Lead Bank may receive Participant's portion of such
expenses by deducting them from any amounts required to be remitted by Lead Bank
to Participant hereunder.

         Section 7. Offset. Lead Bank may offset against amounts owed to
Participant under this Agreement any amounts Participant may owe Lead Bank under
any agreements or circumstances.

         Section 8. Disclaimer. The Lead Bank makes no representation or
warranty, whether express or implied, to the Participant with respect to (a) the
collectibility of the Loans, (b) the financial condition or solvency of the
Borrower or any other party obligated on the Loans, (c) the accuracy of any
information, statements, or certificates provided to the Participant under this
agreement; or (d) the existence, sufficiency or value of any collateral securing
the Loans.

<PAGE>

         Section 9. Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Participant shall
reimburse the Lead Bank on demand in proportion to the Participant's pro rata
interest in the Loan, for all out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable
attorney's fees, incurred by the Lead Bank in connection with the making or
collection or the Loans, to the extend not recovered from the Borrower. The
Participant shall indemnify the Lead Bank for the Participant's pro rata share
(determined in accordance with its pro rata interest in the Loan) of any costs,
expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements), claims,
damages, actions, losses or liabilities, incurred by the Lead Bank in connection
with the Loans unless they result from the Lead Bank's own gross negligence or
willful misconduct or are paid in satisfaction of a judgment, settlement
agreement, or arbitration award arising out of the Borrower's allegations of
fraud, deceit, misrepresentation, or lack of good faith (other than allegations
that arise out of conduct of the Participant or conduct of the Lead Bank
specifically directed, authorized, or concurred in by the Participant).

         Section 10. Notices. Except as provided in Section 2 above, all notices

         (a) Participant shall not sell, pledge, assign, sub-participate, or
otherwise transfer its rights under this Agreement, the Collateral, or any

Bank to Borrower or any guarantor, or in any property in Lead Bank's possession
or control, or in any deposit held or other indebtedness owing by Lead Bank,
which may be or become collateral for or otherwise available for payment of the
Loan by reason of the general description of secured obligations contained in
any security agreement or other agreement or instrument held by Lead Bank or by
reason of the right of set-off, counterclaim or otherwise, except that if any of
those items or the proceeds thereof are applied in reduction of amounts
outstanding under the Loan, then Participant shall be entitled to its pro-rata
share in such application.

"ADVANCE" means a Eurodollar Advance or a Prime Rate Advance and "ADVANCES"
means all Eurodollar Advances and all Prime Rate Advances under this Note.

"APPLICABLE MARGIN" means with respect to any Prime Rate Advance or Eurodollar

The Applicable Margin shall, in each case, be determined and adjusted quarterly
on the first day of the month after the date of delivery of the quarterly and
annual financial statements required by the Credit Agreement, provided, however,
that if such financial statements are not delivered within two Business Days
after the required date (each, an "Interest Determination Date"), the Applicable
Margin shall increase to the maximum percentage amount set forth in the table
above from the date such financial statements were required to be delivered to
the Bank until received by the Bank, and provided further, that after such
financial statements are received by the Bank, the Applicable Margin shall be
determined and adjusted retroactive to the date the financial statements were
required to have been delivered to the Bank. The Applicable Margin shall be
effective from an Interest Determination Date until the next Interest
Determination Date. Such determinations by the Bank shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. The initial Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Advances is 0.00%

for all other purposes, a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on
which national banking associations are authorized to be closed.

"EURODOLLAR BASE RATE" means, with respect to the relevant Interest Period, the
applicable British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate for deposits in U.S. dollars
as reported by any generally recognized financial information service as of
11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period, provided
that, if no such British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate is available to the
Bank, the applicable Eurodollar Base Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall
instead be the rate determined by the Bank to be the rate at which BANK ONE
CORPORATION or one of its affiliate banks offers to place deposits in U.S.
dollars with first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately

<PAGE>

11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, in the approximate amount of the principal amount outstanding
on such date and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period.

"EURODOLLAR ADVANCE" means any borrowing under this Note when and to the extent
that its interest rate is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate.

"EURODOLLAR RATE" means, with respect to a Eurodollar Advance for the relevant
Interest Period, the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin plus (ii) the quotient of
(a) the Eurodollar Base Rate applicable to such Interest Period, divided by (b)
one minus the Reserve Requirement (expressed as a decimal) applicable to such
Interest Period.

"INTEREST PERIOD" means, with respect to a Eurodollar Advance, a period of one
(1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) month(s) commencing on a Business Day
selected by the Borrower pursuant to this Note. Such Interest Period shall end

(3) or six (6) month(s) thereafter, as applicable, provided, however, that if
there is no such numerically corresponding day in such first, second, third or
sixth succeeding month(s), as applicable, such Interest Period shall end on the
last Business Day of such first, second, third or sixth succeeding month(s), as
applicable. If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a
Business Day, such Interest Period shall end on the next succeeding Business
Day, provided, however, that if said next succeeding Business Day falls in a new
calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding
Business Day.
"PRIME RATE" means a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of interest
announced from time to time by the Bank or its parent (which is not necessarily
the lowest rate charged to any customer), changing when and as said prime rate
changes.
"PRIME RATE ADVANCE" means any Advance under this Note when and to the extent
that its interest rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate. "PRINCIPAL
PAYMENT DATE" is defined in the paragraph entitled "Principal Payments" below.
"REGULATION D" means Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System as from time to time in effect and any successor thereto or other
regulation or official interpretation of said Board of Governors relating to
reserve requirements applicable to member banks of the Federal Reserve System.

aggregate reserve requirement (including all basic, supplemental, marginal and
other reserves) which is imposed under Regulation D. INTEREST RATES. The
aggregate number of Eurodollar Advances outstanding at any one time evidenced by
this Note may not exceed five (5). The Borrower shall pay interest to the Bank
on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of each Prime Rate Advance at the
Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin and each Eurodollar Advance at the
Eurodollar Rate. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number
of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. In no event shall the interest rate
applicable to any Advance exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Any interest
payment which would for any reason be deemed unlawful under applicable law shall
be applied to principal. BANK RECORDS. The Bank shall, in the ordinary course of
business, make notations in its records of the date, amount, interest rate and
Interest Period of each Advance hereunder, the amount of each payment on the
Advances, and other information. Such records shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive as to the outstanding principal balance of and interest
rate or rates applicable to this Note.
Notice AND MANNER OF ELECTING INTEREST RATES ON ADVANCES. The Borrower shall
give the Bank written notice (effective upon receipt) of the Borrower's intent
to draw down an Advance under this Note no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time,
one (1) Business Day before disbursement, if the full amount of the drawn
Advance is to be disbursed as a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business Days
before disbursement, if any part of such Advance is to be disbursed as a
Eurodollar Advance. The Borrower's notice must specify: (a) the disbursement
date, (b) the amount of each Advance, (c) the type of each Advance (Prime Rate
Advance or Eurodollar Advance), and (d) for each Eurodollar Advance, the

may not elect an Interest Period ending after the maturity date of this Note.
Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in a minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand
and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00). All notices under this paragraph are
irrevocable. By the Bank's close of business on the disbursement date and upon
fulfillment of the conditions set forth herein and in any other of the Related
Documents, the Bank shall disburse the requested Advances in immediately
available funds by crediting the amount of such Advances to the Borrower's
account with the Bank. CONVERSION AND RENEWALS. The Borrower may elect from time
to time to convert one type of Advance into another or to renew any Advance by
giving the Bank written notice no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time, one (1)
Business Day before conversion into a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business
Days before conversion into or renewal of a Eurodollar Advance, specifying: (a)
the renewal or conversion date, (b) the amount of the Advance to be converted or
renewed, (c) in the case of conversion, the type of Advance to be converted into

outstanding after a renewal or conversion shall be Two Hundred Fifty Thousand
and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00); (ii) a Eurodollar Advance can only be
converted on the last day of the Interest Period for the Advance; and (iii) the
Borrower may not elect an Interest Period ending after the maturity date of this
Note. All notices given under this paragraph are irrevocable. If the Borrower
fails to give the Bank the notice specified above for the renewal or conversion
of a Eurodollar Advance by 11:00 a.m. Eastern time three (3) Business Days
before the end of the Interest Period for that Advance, the Advance shall
automatically be converted to a Prime Rate Advance on the last day of the
Interest Period for the Advance.

<PAGE>

INTEREST PAYMENTS. Interest on the Advances shall be paid as follows:
A. For each Prime Rate Advance, on the thirtieth day of each month beginning
with the first month following disbursement of the Advance or following
conversion of an Advance into a Prime Rate Advance, and at the maturity or
conversion of the Advance into a Eurodollar Advance; B. For each Eurodollar
Advance, on the last day of the Interest Period for the Advance and, if the
Interest Period is longer than three months, at three-month intervals beginning
with the day three months from the date the Advance is disbursed.

PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. All outstanding principal and interest is due and payable in
full on May 31, 2006, which is defined herein as the "Principal Payment Date".

DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST. After a default has occurred under this Note, whether
or not the Bank elects to accelerate the maturity of this Note because of such
default, all Advances outstanding under this Note, including all Eurodollar
Advances, shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate, plus
the Applicable Margin for a Prime Rate Advance, plus three percent (3.00%) from
the date the Bank elects to impose such rate. Imposition of this rate shall not
affect any limitations contained in this Note on the Borrower's right to repay
principal on any Eurodollar Advance before the expiration of the Interest Period
for that Advance.

PREPAYMENT. The Borrower may prepay all or any part of any Prime Rate Advance at
any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower may prepay any Eurodollar
Advance only at the end of an Interest Period.

FUNDING LOSS INDEMNIFICATION. Upon the Bank's request, the Borrower shall pay
the Bank amounts sufficient (in the Bank's reasonable opinion) to compensate it
for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of: A. Any payment of a
Eurodollar Advance on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for
the Advance, including, without limitation, acceleration of the Advances by the
Bank pursuant to this Note or the Related Documents; or B. Any failure by the
Borrower to borrow or renew a Eurodollar Advance on the date specified in the
relevant notice from the Borrower to the Bank.

ADDITIONAL COSTS. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government
rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the
Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental
authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by
the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether
or not having the force of law), shall (a) affect the basis of taxation of
payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Note or
the Related Documents (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the
Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of
the jurisdiction in which the Bank has its principal office), or (b) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by
the Bank, or (c) impose any other condition with respect to this Note or the
Related Documents and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost
to the Bank of maintaining any Eurodollar Advance or to reduce the amount of any
sum receivable by the Bank on such an Advance, or (d) affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank (or any corporation
controlling the Bank) and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is
increased by or based upon the existence of the Bank's obligations under this
Note or the Related Documents and the increase has the effect of reducing the
rate of return on the Bank's (or its controlling corporation's) capital as a
consequence of the obligations under this Note or the Related Documents to a
level below that which the Bank (or its controlling corporation) could have
achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material,
then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, upon request by the
Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased
cost or reduced sum receivable. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances
described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the
Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis
for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A
statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable,
prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the
Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error in computation.

ILLEGALITY. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or
regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or
the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged
with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any
guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the
force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or
fund the Eurodollar Advances, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the
outstanding principal amount of the Eurodollar Advances, together with accrued
interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the
Related Documents on account of the Eurodollar Advances shall be repaid (a)
immediately upon the Bank's demand if such change or compliance with such
requests, in the Bank's judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the
expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of
any such change or request provided, however, that subject to the terms and
conditions of this Note and the Related Documents the Borrower shall be entitled
to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar
Advance repaid in accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the
same amount.

<PAGE>

INABILITY TO DETERMINE INTEREST RATE. If the Bank determines that (a) quotations
of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of
Eurodollar Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the
relevant maturities for purposes of determining the interest rate on a
Eurodollar Advance as provided in this Note, or (b) the relevant interest rates
referred to in the definition of Eurodollar Rate do not accurately cover the
cost to the Bank of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the Bank
shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i)
the obligation of the Bank to make Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended until
the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the
suspension no longer exists, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then
outstanding principal amount of each Eurodollar Advance, together with accrued
interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the
Advance, provided, however, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Note and the Related Documents, the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously
replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar Advance repaid in
accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the same amount.

OBLIGATIONS DUE ON NON-BUSINESS DAY. Whenever any payment under this Note
becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, if no default then
exists under this Note, the maturity of the payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, except, in the case of a Eurodollar Advance, if
the result of the extension would be to extend the payment into another calendar
month, the payment must be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

MATTERS REGARDING PAYMENT. The Borrower will pay the Bank at the Bank's address
shown above or at such other place as the Bank may designate. Payments shall be
allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of the Bank
unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law. Acceptance by the Bank of
any payment which is less than the payment due at the time shall not constitute
a waiver of the Bank's right to receive payment in full at that time or any
other time.

LATE FEE. If any payment is not received by the Bank within ten (10) days after
its due date, the Bank may assess and the Borrower agrees to pay a late fee
equal to the greater of: (a) five percent (5.00%) of the past due amount or (b)
Twenty Five and 00/100 Dollars ($25.00), up to the maximum amount of One
Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($1,500.00) per late charge.

BUSINESS LOAN. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Note evidences a
loan for a business, commercial, agricultural or similar commercial enterprise
purpose, and that all advances made under this Note shall not be used for any
personal, family or household purpose.

CREDIT FACILITY. The Bank has approved a revolving credit facility to the
Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The
credit facility is in the form of advances made from time to time by the Bank to
the Borrower. This Note evidences the Borrower's obligation to repay those
advances. The aggregate principal amount of debt evidenced by this Note is the
amount reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank. Until the
earliest of maturity, the occurrence of any default, or the occurrence of any
event that would constitute the occurrence of any default but for the lapse of
time until the end of any grace or cure period, the Borrower may borrow, pay
down and reborrow under this Note subject to the terms of the Related Documents.

LIABILITIES. The term "Liabilities" in this Note means all obligations,
indebtedness and liabilities of the Borrower to any one or more of the Bank,
BANK ONE CORPORATION, and any of their subsidiaries, affiliates or successors,
now existing or later arising, including, without limitation, all loans,
advances, interest, costs, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness,
lease obligations, or obligations relating to any Rate Management Transaction,
all monetary obligations incurred or accrued during the pendency of any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceedings, regardless of
whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding, and all renewals, extensions,
modifications, consolidations or substitutions of any of the foregoing, whether
the Borrower may be liable jointly with others or individually liable as a
debtor, maker, co-maker, drawer, endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise, and
whether voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute or
contingent, direct or indirect, liquidated or unliquidated. The term "Rate
Management Transaction" in this Note means any transaction (including an
agreement with respect thereto) now existing or hereafter entered into among the
Borrower the Bank or BANK ONE CORPORATION, or any of its subsidiaries or

equity or equity index option, bond option, interest rate option, foreign
exchange transaction, cap transaction, floor transaction, collar transaction,
forward transaction, currency swap transaction, cross-currency rate swap
transaction, currency option or any other similar transaction (including any
option with respect to any of these transactions) or any combination thereof,
whether linked to one or more interest rates, foreign currencies, commodity
prices, equity prices or other financial measures.

RELATED DOCUMENTS. The term "Related Documents" in this Note means all loan
agreements, credit agreements, reimbursement agreements, security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust, pledge agreements, assignments, guaranties, or any
other instrument or document executed in connection with this Note or in
connection with any of the Liabilities.

SECURITY. The term "Collateral" in this Note means all real or personal property
described in all security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages, deeds of
trust, assignments, or other instruments now or hereafter executed in connection
with this Note or in connection with any of the Liabilities. If applicable, the
Collateral secures the payment of this Note and the Liabilities.

<PAGE>

BANK'S RIGHT OF SETOFF. In addition to the Collateral, if any, the Borrower
grants to the Bank a security interest in, and the Bank is authorized to setoff
and apply, all Accounts, Securities and Other Property, and Bank Debt against
any and all Liabilities of the Borrower. This right of setoff may be exercised
at any time and from time to time after default by Borrower, and without prior
notice to the Borrower. This security interest and right of setoff may be
enforced or exercised by the Bank regardless of whether or not the Bank has made
any demand under this paragraph or whether the Liabilities are contingent,
matured, or unmatured. Any delay, neglect or conduct by the Bank in exercising
its rights under this paragraph will not be a waiver of the right to exercise
this right of setoff or enforce this security interest. The rights of the Bank
under this paragraph are in addition to other rights the Bank may have in the
Related Documents or by law. In this paragraph: (a) the term "Accounts" means
any and all accounts and deposits of the Borrower (whether general, special,
time, demand, provisional or final) at any time held by the Bank (including all
Accounts held jointly with another, but excluding any IRA or Keogh Account, or
any trust Account in which a security interest would be prohibited by law); (b)
the term "Securities and Other Property" means any and all securities and other
property of the Borrower in the custody, possession or control of the Bank
(other than property held by the Bank in a fiduciary capacity); and (c) the term
"Bank Debt" means all indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank, to or for the
credit or account of the Borrower.

covered by this Note.

or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to
a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or
otherwise (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential
Payment"), then this Note shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated,
as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in possession of this Note,
and, to the extent of such payment or repayment by the Bank, the Liabilities or
part thereof intended to be satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment
had not been made.

     collateral account for the Liabilities;

9.   No financing statement  covering  all or any part of the Collateral or any
     proceeds is on file in any public office, unless the Bank has approved that
     filing. From time to time at the Bank's request, the Debtor will execute
     one or more financing statements in form satisfactory to the Bank and will
     pay the cost of filing them in all public offices where filing is deemed by
     the Bank to be necessary or desirable. In addition, the Debtor shall
     execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such other
     documents as the Bank may from time to time request to perfect or to

     certificates of title to the Collateral with the security interest of the
     Bank noted thereon or executed applications for such certificates of title

     request; (c) after default by Debtor, any assignment of any specific
     account receivable as the Bank may from time to time request; (d) a notice
     of security interest and a control agreement with respect to any
     Collateral, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank; (e) a
     notice to and acknowledgment from any person holding possession of any

10.  It will not, without (he Bank's prior written consent, change the Debtor's
     name, the Debtor's business organization, the jurisdiction under which the
     Debtor's business organization is formed or organized, or the Debtor's
     chief executive office, or of any additional places of the Debtor's
     business;
11.  It will provide any information that the Bank may reasonably request and
     will permit the Bank or the Bank's agents to inspect and copy its books,
     records, data and the Collateral at any time during normal business hours;
12.  The Bank shall have the right now, and at any time in the future in its
     sole and absolute discretion, without notice to the Debtor, to (a) prepare,
     file and sign the Debtor's name on any proof of claim in bankruptcy or
     similar document against any owner of the Collateral and (b) prepare, file
     and sign the Debtor's name on any financing statement, notice of lien,
     assignment or satisfaction of lien or similar document in connection with
     the Collateral. The Debtor hereby authorizes the Bank to file financing
     statements containing the collateral description "All of the Debtor's
     assets whether now owned or hereafter acquired." or such lesser amount of
     assets as the Bank may determine, or the Bank may, at its option, file
     financing statements containing any collateral description which reasonably
     describes the Collateral in which a security interest is granted under this
     agreement;
13.  The Debtor shall keep all tangible Collateral in good order and repair and
     shall not waste or destroy any of the Collateral, nor use any of the
     Collateral in violation of any applicable law or any policy of insurance
     thereon. To the extent that the Collateral consists of "farm products" (as
     defined in the UCC), the Debtor shall attend to and care for the crops and
     livestock in accordance with the best practices of good husbandry, and do,
     or cause to be done, any and all acts that may at any time be appropriate
     or necessary to grow, raise, harvest, care for, preserve and protect the
     farm products;
14.  Except as may be otherwise disclosed in writing by the Debtor to the Bank,
     none of the Collateral is attached to real estate so as to constitute a
     "fixture" (as defined in the UCC) and none of the Collateral shall at any
     time hereafter be attached to real estate so as to constitute a fixture. If
     any of the Collateral is now or at any time hereafter becomes so attached
     to real estate so as to constitute a fixture, the Debtor shall, at any time
     upon the Bank's request, furnish the Bank with a disclaimer of interest in
     the Collateral executed by each person or entity having an interest in such
     real estate.

ACCOUNTS. If the Collateral includes the Debtor's "Accounts" and until the Bank
gives notice to the Debtor to the contrary, the Debtor will, in the usual course
of its business and at its own expense, on the Bank's behalf but not as the
Bank's agent, demand and receive and use its best efforts to collect all moneys
due or to become due with respect to the Collateral. Until the Bank gives notice
to the Debtor to the contrary after the Debtor is in default, it may use the
funds collected in its business. Upon notice from the Bank or upon default, the
Debtor agrees that all sums of money it receives on account of or in payment or
settlement of the Accounts shall be held by it as trustee for the Bank without
commingling with any of the Debtor's other funds, and shall immediately be
delivered to the Bank with endorsement to the Bank's order of any check or
similar instrument. It is agreed that, at any time the Bank so elects, the Bank
shall be entitled, in its own name or in the name of the Debtor or otherwise,

<PAGE>

but at the expense and cost of the Debtor, to collect, demand, receive, sue for
or compromise any and all Accounts and to give good and sufficient releases, to
endorse any checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money payable to
the Debtor and, in the Bank's discretion, to file any claims or take any action
or proceeding which the Bank may deem necessary or advisable. It is expressly
understood and agreed, however, that the Bank shall not be required or obligated
in any manner to make any demand or to make any inquiry as to the nature or
sufficiency of any payment received by it or to present or file any claim or
take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may
have been assigned to the Bank or to which the Bank may be entitled at any time
or times. All notices required in this paragraph will be immediately effective
when sent. Such notices need not be given prior to the Bank's taking action. The
Debtor appoints the Bank or the Bank's designee as the Debtor's attorney-in-fact
to do all things with reference to the Collateral as provided for in this
section including without limitation (1) to notify the post office authorities
to change the Debtor's mailing address to one designated by the Bank, (2) to
receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to the Debtor, (3) to sign the
Debtor's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Collateral, on
assignments and verifications of account and on notices to the Debtor's
customers, and (4) to do all things necessary to carry out this agreement. The
Debtor ratifies and approves all acts of the Bank as attorney-in-fact. The Bank
shall not be liable for any act or omission, nor any error of judgment or
mistake of fact or law, but only for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
This power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until all of the
Liabilities have been fully satisfied.

PLEDGE. If the Debtor is not liable for all or any part of the Liabilities, then
the Debtor agrees that:

1.   If any moneys become available from any source other than the Collateral
     that the Bank can apply to the Liabilities, the Bank may apply them in any
     manner it chooses, including but not limited to applying them against
     obligations, indebtedness or liabilities which are not secured by this
     agreement.
2.   The Bank may take any action against the Borrower, the Collateral or any
     other collateral for the Liabilities, or any other person liable for any of
     the Liabilities.
3.   The Bank may release the Borrower or anyone else from the Liabilities,
     either in whole or in part, or release the Collateral in whole or in part
     or any other collateral for the Liabilities, and need not perfect a
     security interest in the Collateral or any other collateral for the
     Liabilities.
4.   The Bank does not have to exercise any rights that it has against the
     Borrower or anyone else, or make any effort to realize on the Collateral or
     any other collateral for the Liabilities, or exercise any right of setoff.
5.   Without  notice or demand and without  affecting the Debtor's  obligations
     hereunder, from time to time, the Bank is authorized to: (a) renew, modify,
     compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of,
     or otherwise change the terms of the Liabilities or any part thereof,
     including increasing or decreasing the rate of interest thereon; (b)
     release, substitute or add any one or more sureties, endorsers, or
     guarantors; (c) take and hold other collateral for the payment of the
     Liabilities, and enforce, exchange, substitute, subordinate, waive or
     release any such collateral; (d) proceed against the Collateral or any
     other collateral for the Liabilities and direct the order or manner of sale
     as the Bank in its discretion may determine; and (e) apply any and all
     payments received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, or
     recoveries from the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities,
     in such order or manner as the Bank in its discretion may determine.
6.   The Debtor's obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished or
     affected by (a) any act or omission of the Bank, (b) the voluntary or
     involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially
     all of the assets of the Borrower, or any receivership, insolvency,
     bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceedings affecting the
     Borrower or any of its assets, (c) any change in the composition or
     structure of the Borrower, including a merger or consolidation with any
     other person or entity, or (d) any payments made upon the Liabilities.
7.   The Debtor expressly consents to any impairment of any other collateral for
     the Liabilities, including, but not limited to, failure to perfect a
     security interest and release of any other collateral for the Liabilities
     and any such impairment or release shall not affect the Debtor's
     obligations hereunder.
8.   The Debtor waives and agrees not to enforce any rights of subrogation,
     contribution or indemnification that it may have against the Borrower, any
     person liable on the Liabilities, or the Collateral, until the Borrower and
     the Debtor have fully performed all their obligations to the Bank, even if
     those obligations are not covered by this agreement.
9.   The Debtor waives (a) to the extent  permitted by law, all rights and
     benefits under any laws or statutes regarding sureties, as may be amended,
     (b) any right the Debtor may have to receive notice of the following
     matters before the Bank enforces any of its rights: (i) the Bank's
     acceptance of this agreement, (ii) any credit that the Bank extends to the
     Borrower, (iii) the Borrower's default, (iv) any demand, diligence,
     presentment, dishonor and protest, or (v) any action that the Bank takes
     regarding the Borrower, anyone else, any other collateral for the
     Liabilities, or any of the Liabilities, which it might be entitled to by
     law or under any other agreement, (c) any right it may have to require the
     Bank to proceed against the Borrower, any other obligor or guarantor of the
     Liabilities, the Collateral or any other collateral for the Liabilities, or
     pursue any remedy in the Bank's power to pursue, (d) any defense based on
     any claim that the Debtor's obligations exceed or are more burdensome than
     those of the Borrower, (e) the benefit of any statute of limitations
     affecting the Debtor's obligations hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (f)
     any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the
     Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever (other
     than payment in full) of the obligation of the Borrower for the
     Liabilities, and (g) any defense based on or arising out of any defense
     that the Borrower may have to the payment or performance of the Liabilities
     or any portion thereof. The Bank may waive or delay enforcing any of its
     rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the specific terms and
     time period stated in the waiver.

<PAGE>

10.  The Debtor agrees that to the extent any payment is received by the Bank in
     connection with the Liabilities, and all or any part of such payment is
     subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
     aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to a trustee,
     receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or otherwise
     (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential Payment"),
     then this agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated,
     as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in possession of this
     agreement, and, to the extent of such payment or repayment by the Bank, the
     Liabilities or part thereof intended to be satisfied by such Preferential
     Payment shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said
     Preferential Payment had not been made. If this agreement must be
     reinstated, the Debtor agrees to execute and deliver to the Bank any new
     security agreements and financing statements, if necessary or if requested
     by the Bank, in form and substance acceptable to the Bank, covering the
     Collateral.
11.  Any rights of the Debtor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to
     receive payment on account of any indebtedness (including interest) owed to
     the Debtor by the Borrower, or to withdraw capital invested by the Debtor
     in the Borrower, or to receive distributions from the Borrower, shall at
     all times be subordinate to the full and prior repayment to the Bank of the
     Liabilities. The Debtor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment
     of any sums hereby subordinated until the Liabilities have been paid in
     full and any such sums received in violation of this agreement shall be
     received by the Debtor in trust for the Bank. The Debtor agrees to fully
     cooperate with the Bank and not to delay, impede or otherwise interfere
     with the efforts of the Bank to secure payment from the assets which secure
     the Liabilities including actions, proceedings, motions, orders, agreements
     or other matters relating to relief from automatic stay, abandonment of
     property, use of cash collateral and sale of the Bank's collateral free and
     clear of all liens. The foregoing notwithstanding, until the occurrence of
     any default, the Debtor is not prohibited from receiving distributions from
     the Borrower in an amount equal to any income tax liability imposed on the
     Debtor attributable to the Debtor's ownership interest in the Borrower, if
     any.

DEFAULT; REMEDIES. If any of the Liabilities are not paid at maturity, whether
by acceleration or otherwise, or if a default by anyone occurs under the terms
of any agreement related to any of the Liabilities, then the Bank shall have the
rights and remedies provided by law or this agreement, including but not limited
to the right to require the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it
available to the Bank at a place to be designated by the Bank which is
reasonably convenient to both parties, the right to take possession of the
Collateral with or without demand and with or without process of law, and the
right to sell and dispose of it and distribute the proceeds according to law.
Should a default occur, the Debtor will pay to the Bank all costs reasonably
incurred by the Bank for the purpose of enforcing its rights hereunder, to the
extent not prohibited by law, including, without limitation: costs of
foreclosure; costs of obtaining money damages; and a reasonable fee for the
services of outside attorneys employed or engaged by the Bank for any purpose
related to this agreement, including, without limitation, consultation, drafting
documents, sending notices or instituting, prosecuting or defending litigation
or any proceeding. The Debtor agrees that upon default the Bank may dispose of
any of the Collateral in its then present condition, that the Bank has no duty
to repair or clean the Collateral prior to sale, and that the disposal of the
Collateral in its present condition or without repair or clean-up shall not
affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or disposition. The Bank's
compliance with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection
with the disposition of the Collateral will not adversely affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Bank may disclaim warranties
of title, possession, quiet enjoyment, and the like, and the Debtor agrees that
any such action shall not affect the commercial reasonableness of the sale. In
connection with the right of the Bank to take possession of the Collateral, the
Bank may take possession of any other items of property in or on the Collateral
at the time of taking possession, and hold them for the Debtor without liability
on the part of the Bank. The Debtor expressly agrees that the Bank may enter
upon the premises where the Collateral is believed to be located without any
obligation of payment to the Debtor, and that the Bank may, without cost, use
any and all of the Debtor's "equipment" (as defined in the UCC) in the
manufacturing or processing of any "inventory" (as defined in the UCC) or in
growing, raising, cultivating, caring for, harvesting, loading and transporting
of any of the Collateral that constitutes "farm products" (as defined in the
UCC). If there is any statutory requirement for notice, that requirement shall
be met if the Bank sends notice to the Debtor at least ten (10) days prior to
the date of sale, disposition or other event giving rise to the required notice,
and such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. The Debtor is liable
for any deficiency remaining after disposition of the Collateral.

MISCELLANEOUS.
1.       Where the Collateral is located at, used in or attached to a facility
         leased by the Debtor, the Debtor will obtain from the lessor a consent
         to the granting of this security interest and a release or
         subordination of the lessor's interest in any of the Collateral, in
         form acceptable to the Bank.
2.       At its option the Bank may, but shall be under no duty or obligation
         to, discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at
         any time levied or placed on the Collateral, pay for insurance on the
         Collateral, and pay for the maintenance and preservation of the
         Collateral, and the Debtor agrees to reimburse the Bank on demand for
         any payment made or expense incurred by the Bank, with interest at the
         highest rate at which interest may accrue under any of the instruments
         evidencing the Liabilities.
3.       No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right or remedy
         waives that right or remedy, no single or partial exercise by the Bank
         of any right or remedy precludes any other exercise of it or the
         exercise of any other right or remedy, and no waiver or indulgence by
         the Bank of any default is effective unless it is in writing and signed
         by the Bank, nor does a waiver on one occasion waive that right on any
         future occasion.
4.       If any provision of this agreement is invalid, it shall be ineffective
         only to the extent of its invalidity, and the remaining provisions
         shall be valid and effective.

5.       Except as provided in the Accounts;  Chattel Paper; General
         Intangibles; and Instruments paragraph above, any notices and demands
         under or related to this document shall be in writing and delivered to
         the intended party at its address stated herein, and if to the Bank, at
         its main office if no other address of the Bank is specified herein, by
         one of the following means: (a) by hand, (b) by a nationally recognized
         overnight courier service, or (c) by certified mail, postage prepaid,
         with return receipt requested. Notice shall be deemed given: (a) upon
         receipt if delivered by hand, (b) on the Delivery Day after the day of
         deposit with a nationally recognized courier service, or (c) on the
         fifth Delivery Day after the notice is deposited in the mail. "Delivery
         Day" means a day other than a Saturday, a Sunday, or any other day on
         which national banking associations are authorized to be closed. Any
         party may change its address for purposes of the receipt of notices and
         demands by giving notice of such change in the manner provided in this
         provision.
6.       All rights of the Bank benefit the Bank's successors and assigns; and
         all obligations of the Debtor bind the Debtor's heirs, executors,
         administrators, successors and assigns. If there is more than one
         Debtor, their obligations are joint and several,
7.       A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this agreement is
         sufficient as, and can be filed as, a financing statement. The Bank is
         irrevocably appointed the Debtor's attorney-in-fact to execute any
         financing statement on the Debtor's behalf covering the Collateral.
         Additionally, the Debtor authorizes the Bank to file one or more
         financing statements related to the security interests created by this
         agreement, and further authorizes the Bank, as secured party herein,
         instead of the Debtor, to sign such financing statements.

SECURITY AGREEMENT IN ADDITION TO OTHER SECURITY AGREEMENTS. This Security
Agreement is in addition to and not in substitution or replacement of any other
security agreement executed by the Debtor in favor of the Bank, and the Bank's
rights under this Security Agreement and any such other security agreement are
cumulative.

GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This agreement is delivered in the State of Indiana and
governed by Indiana law (without giving effect to its laws of conflicts), except
to the extent that the laws regarding the perfection and priority of property of
the state in which any property securing the Liabilities is located are

to any of its obligations under this agreement may be brought by the Bank in any
state or federal court located in Elkhart or St. Joseph County in the State of
Indiana, as the Bank in its sole discretion may elect. By the execution and
delivery of this agreement, the Debtor submits to and accepts, for itself and in
respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of those courts. The Debtor waives any claim that Elkhart or St.
Joseph County, State of Indiana are not a convenient forum or the proper venue
for any such suit, action or proceeding.

not changed materially and adversely since those dates. Each Debtor, other than

and in good standing under the laws where it is organized; and (b) the execution
