          WHEREAS, the Company and TBCC are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement (the “Fourth Warrant,” and together with the First Warrant, the Second

of the Company’s Common Stock; and
          WHEREAS, the Company and TTFC desire to amend the Warrant Agreements as more particularly set forth in this

          NOW, THEREFORE, in furtherance of the Restructure Agreement and in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and
covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
          1. Exercise Price. The first sentence of Section 7(a) of the First Warrant is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence of Section 7(a) of the First Warrant in
its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following:
          “The price at which Common Stock shall be purchasable upon exercise of Warrants at
any time until the Warrant Expiration Date shall be $0.0625 per share of Common Stock or, if adjusted as provided in this Section, shall be such price as so adjusted (the “Exercise Price”).”
          2. Expiration Date. The first sentence of Section 5 of each of the Warrant Agreements is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence of Section 5 of each of the
Warrant Agreements in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following:
           “The Warrants shall expire at midnight at the end of the day
on December 31, 2007, New York City time (the “Warrant Expiration Date”) and are exercisable and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.”

           3. Exercise of Warrants.  Section 5(d) of each of the Warrant Agreements is hereby amended by adding the
following at the end of Section 5(d) of each of the Warrant Agreements:
          “Notwithstanding anything contained above to the contrary, in lieu of
exercising this Warrant as described above, the Holder of this Warrant may elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the
principal office of the Company together with notice of such election (which notice shall include the number of shares being exercised hereunder, and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A), in which event the Company
shall issue to the Holder of this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the value of the shares of Common Stock being exercised (the “Exercise Shares”) on the date of exercise (the
“Exercise Date”) which value shall be determined by subtracting (a) the aggregate Warrant Price of the Exercised Shares immediately prior to the exercise of the Warrant from (b) the aggregate fair market value of the Exercised Shares on
the Exercise Date, by (y) the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the Exercise Date.  No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with
the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder of this Warrant an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting fractional share on the Exercise Date.”
         4. Holder of the Warrants.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Warrant Agreements, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that TTFC, as
successor in interest to TBCC, has the right to assign, and that TTFC hereby does assign, all of its right, title and interest in and to the Warrant Agreements, and in and to any Warrants or shares of Common Stock issued or to be issued thereunder,
to TBCC Funding Trust II, a Delaware business trust (“Trust II”).  The Company hereby consents to such assignment and hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights, if any, to object to such assignment.  In addition, the Company
hereby covenants and agrees, with respect to each of the Warrant Agreements, to deliver to TTFC as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution and delivery of this Amendment a Warrant Certificate in the name and for the benefit of Trust
II.
          5. Vesting.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Warrant Agreements, the Company hereby acknowledges and
agrees that all of the Warrants issued or to be issued thereunder are fully vested and exercisable as of the date hereof.
          6. Representations and

  EXHIBIT 10.46
  PROMISSORY NOTE
  Date:  October 1, 2002
                  FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned promises to pay
to the order of Transamerica 
                  Technology Finance Corporation or its assigns (the “Payee”) at
its office located at Riverway II, West Office Tower, 9399 West Higgins Road, Rosemont, Illinois 60018, or at such other place as the Payee or the holder hereof may designate in writing, the principal amount of Two Hundred Forty Five Thousand and
00/100 Dollars ($245,000.00) plus interest, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.  This Note shall be payable commencing with a first installment due on October 1, 2002 and on the first day of each and every
month thereafter equal monthly installments of principal and interest in the amount of Two Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,000.00) for 18 months through March 1, 2004 and commencing on April 1, 2004 and on the first day of each and every month
thereafter equal monthly installments of principal and interest in the amount of Fourteen Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($14,500.00) for 18 months through September 1, 2005.  In addition to the above payments, the undersigned
promises to pay a final payment of principal and interest on October 1, 2005 of Five Thousand One Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($5,100.00) together with all accrued interest and unpaid principal and all other amounts due in connection with this Note
which sums shall be immediately due and payable.  No amount of principal paid or prepaid hereunder may be reborrowed.
                 This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Restructure Agreement dated as of October 1, 2002 (as amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Agreement”), between the undersigned and the Payee and is subject and entitled to all provisions and benefits thereof.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
set forth in the Agreement.
                  If any installment of this Note is not paid within five Business Days
after its due date, the undersigned agrees to pay on demand, in addition to the amount of such installment, an amount equal to 5% of such installment, but only to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.
                  The undersigned shall have the right to prepay this Note at any time on fifteen days’ prior written notice to the
Payee.  On the date of any such prepayment, the undersigned shall pay an amount equal to the present value of the remaining payments (principal and interest) due hereunder discounted at 5% simple interest per annum, together with all interest,
fees and other amounts payable on the amount so prepaid or in connection therewith to the date of such prepayment.  Any prepayments shall be applied to the installments hereof in the inverse order of maturity.
                  Upon the maturity of this Note, the entire unpaid principal amount on this Note, together with all interest, fees and other
amounts payable hereon or in connection herewith, shall be immediately due and payable without further notice or demand, with interest on all such amounts at a rate not to exceed the lawful limit, from the date of such maturity or acceleration, as
the case may be, until all such amounts have been paid.  Upon default or the acceleration of the maturity of this Note in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the entire unpaid principal amount on this Note, together with all interest,
fees, prepayment fees and charges in an amount equal to the present value of the remaining payments (principal and interest) due hereunder discounted at 5% simple interest per annum and other amounts payable hereon or in connection herewith, shall
be immediately due and payable without further notice or demand, with interest on all such amounts at a rate not to exceed the lawful limit, from the date of such maturity, default or acceleration, as the case may be, until all such amounts have
been paid.
                 If any payment on this Note becomes payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity
thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.
                  Except as set forth in the Agreement,
the undersigned hereby waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and notice of any kind, and assents to extensions of the time of payment, release, surrender or substitution of security, or forbearance or other indulgence, without notice. 
The undersigned agrees to pay all amounts under this Note without offset, deduction, claim, counterclaim, defense or recoupment, all of which are hereby waived.
                  The Payee, the undersigned and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable
usury law from time to time in effect.  In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance
or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by Applicable Law from time to time in effect.  Neither the undersigned nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons
hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned
  

   interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under Applicable Law from time to time in effect,
and the provisions of this paragraph shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith.  The Payee expressly disavows any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned
interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated.  If (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest
are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (c) the Payee or any other holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect amounts which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any
or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be charged by Applicable Law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce
the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations or, at the Payee’s or such holder’s option, promptly returned to the undersigned upon such determination.  In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any
specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law, the Payee and the undersigned (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under Applicable Law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as
an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest through the entire contemplated term of this Note in
accordance with the amount outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under Applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the maximum amount of interest permitted under Applicable
Law.
                 This Note may not be changed, modified or terminated orally, but only by an agreement in writing
signed by the undersigned and the Payee or any holder hereof.
                  The undersigned shall, upon demand, pay
to the Payee all costs and expenses incurred by the Payee (including the fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Note and all other Loan Documents, and in
connection with the administration, modification and amendment of the Loan Documents, and pay to the Payee all costs and expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals) paid or incurred by the Payee in (A)
enforcing or defending its rights under or in respect of this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, (B) collecting any of the liabilities by the undersigned to the Payee or otherwise administering the Loan Documents, (C) foreclosing or otherwise
collecting upon any collateral and (D) obtaining any legal, accounting or other advice in connection with any of the foregoing.
                  This Note shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the undersigned and inure to the benefit of the Payee and its
successors, endorsees and assigns.  If any term or provision of this Note shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity of all other terms and provisions hereof shall in no way be affected thereby.  The undersigned
acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of each of the undersigned are joint and several.
                  This
Note is being delivered to Payee by the undersigned to evidence a loan from Payee to the undersigned which loan is secured by among other things the equipment described on Schedule A attached hereto.
                 EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE PAYEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES (TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.
                  THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.
