                  SECTION 2. ADVANCES.

                  2.1      Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including,
without limitation, Section 3, GBCC shall make advances to Company (each a
"Revolving Advance" and

                                       10
<PAGE>

collectively the "Revolving Advances") from time to time during the Term;
provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Advances
outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base
determined by GBCC in its Permitted Discretion and (ii) the Revolving Facility
Limit; provided, further, that the aggregate, outstanding principal amount of
Revolving Advances together with the Term Advance at any time shall not exceed
the Facility Limit. Each Revolving Advance must be at least $5,000 or, if the
Availability is less than $5,000, then the amount of the Availability. Company
hereby agrees to repay to GBCC all Revolving Advances made to Company hereunder,
together with interest thereon, in the manner provided herein. The principal
owing hereunder in respect of the Revolving Advances at any given time shall
equal the aggregate amount of Revolving Advances made hereunder minus all
principal payments thereon received by GBCC hereunder. Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, Company may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Advances but
not the Term Advance under this Agreement.

                  2.2      Each request by Company to GBCC for a Revolving
Advance hereunder must be in writing or promptly confirmed in writing. Each such
written request or confirmation shall be accompanied by a Borrowing Base
Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, together with such
supporting information as GBCC shall request. Each request for a Revolving
Advance shall specify the date on which the requested Revolving Advance is to be
made (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested
Revolving Advance. Requests received after 9:30 a.m. Los Angeles time on any day
shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the
immediately following Business Day. Company hereby authorizes GBCC to make
Revolving Advances based upon requests received from anyone purporting to be an
authorized representative of Company, or, at the discretion of GBCC without
instructions from or notice to Company, if such Revolving Advances are necessary
to satisfy any Obligations. All Revolving Advances made under this Agreement
shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, at the request of, and for
the benefit of Company when deposited to the credit of Company or otherwise
disbursed in accordance with the instructions of Company or in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

                  2.3      Promptly after receiving each Borrowing Base
Certificate, GBCC shall, based upon such Borrowing Base Certificate and such
other information available to GBCC, redetermine the Borrowing Base, which
redetermination shall take effect immediately and remain in effect until the
next such redetermination. If all conditions precedent to any Revolving Advance
requested have been met, GBCC will on the date requested make such Revolving
Advance available to Company by wire transfer to the account designated in
writing by Company. In the event GBCC does not receive an appropriately
completed Borrowing Base Certificate in connection with any Revolving Advance,
GBCC shall have no obligation to redetermine the Borrowing Base or make such
Revolving Advance hereunder.

                  2.4      If at any time the aggregate unpaid principal balance
of the Revolving Advances outstanding to Company exceeds the lesser of (i) the
Borrowing Base and (ii) the Revolving Facility Limit, or if at any time the
aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Advances and the Term
Advance outstanding to Company exceeds the Facility Limit, Company shall, upon
receipt of notice thereof from GBCC, immediately repay the principal of the
Revolving Advances in an amount at least equal to such excess, together with
accrued but unpaid interest on the amount repaid. Any principal repaid pursuant
to this Section 2.4 shall be

                                       11
<PAGE>

in addition to, and not in lieu of, all payments otherwise required to be paid
under the Transaction Documents.

                  2.5      The outstanding principal balance of the Revolving
Advances shall bear interest at the Revolving Advance Contract Rate as in effect
from time to time. All accrued but unpaid interest on the outstanding principal
balance of the Revolving Advances shall be due and payable by Company to GBCC on
the first day of the following calendar month. The aggregate unpaid principal
balance of the Revolving Advances plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon
shall be due and payable by Company to GBCC on the last day of the Term or upon
the early termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 13.4 hereof.

                  2.6      Intentionally Deleted.

                  2.7      Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
including, without limitation, Section 3, GBCC agrees to make a single advance
based upon all of the Collateral (the "Term Advance") to Company on the date of
this Agreement, in the aggregate amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000).
Company hereby agrees to repay to GBCC the Term Advance, together with interest
thereon, in the manner provided herein. The principal owing hereunder in respect
of the Term Advance at any given time shall equal the aggregate initial amount
of the Term Advance made hereunder minus all principal payments thereon received
by GBCC in respect of the Term Advance. Amounts repaid in respect of the Term
Advance may not be reborrowed hereunder.

                  2.8      The aggregate principal balance of the Term Advance
shall be repaid in eighty-four (84) monthly installments of $35,714, due and
payable on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on December 1, 2002,
provided that the remaining unpaid principal balance of the Term Advance and all
accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on the earlier of (a) the
payment of the remaining unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Advances if
the Revolving Advance facility has then been terminated and (b) the last day of
the Term. The outstanding principal balance of the Term Advance shall bear
interest at the Term Advance Contract Rate as in effect from time to time.
Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Term Advance shall be due
and payable by Company to GBCC on the first day of each calendar month.

                  2.9      Intentionally Deleted.

half of one percent (0.5%) of the difference between the Revolving Facility
Limit and the average daily balance of the Revolving Advances for each calendar
quarter, which fee shall be fully earned by GBCC and payable quarterly in
arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter. Said fee shall be
calculated on the basis of a 360 day year. The unused line fee for each calendar
quarter shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the next calendar
quarter, and shall be prorated for any partial calendar month during the Term.

                  2.12     Company shall pay to GBCC a collateral monitoring fee
in the amount of $2,000 for each calendar month. The collateral monitoring fee
for each calendar month shall be

<PAGE>

due and payable on the first day of each calendar month in advance, and shall be
prorated for any partial calendar month during the Term.

                  2.13     Intentionally deleted.

                  2.14     Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery
hereof, Company shall pay to GBCC fees and expenses to cover the legal costs and
expenses of the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the
Transaction Documents. In addition, Company shall pay or reimburse GBCC upon
demand for all other costs and expenses incurred by GBCC in connection with its
due diligence review of Company and the closing of the transactions contemplated
hereby and all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and other expenses
incurred by GBCC (whether or not litigation is commenced or judgment issued, and
if litigation is commenced whether at trial or any appellate level) in
connection with the administration of and enforcement by GBCC of this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document, any amendments to the Transaction Documents,
the termination of the Transaction Documents, the protection or enforcement of
GBCC's interest in the Collateral, the collection by GBCC of the Collateral, the
assignment of the Obligations, or the representation of GBCC in connection with
any "workout" or restructuring, or any bankruptcy case or insolvency proceeding
involving Company, the Collateral, or any Account Debtor, including, without
limitation, any representation involving relief from a stay motion, a cash
collateral dispute, an assumption or rejection motion or a dispute concerning
any proposed disclosure statement and plan proposed in any such proceeding.

                  2.15     GBCC shall be entitled to collect upon demand its

Collateral: appraisals (subject to Section 5.4), lock box charges, wire

Company hereunder, that:

                  4.1      Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, with all requisite
power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and to
conduct its business as presently conducted. Company's federal employer
identification number is 65-0805250. Company is duly qualified and authorized to
do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in all states in
which such qualification and good

                                       16
<PAGE>

standing are necessary or desirable for the conduct by Company of its business
or the performance by Company of its obligations hereunder unless the failure to
be so qualified or in good standing could not result in a material adverse
effect on Company, provided that any failure to be so qualified or in good
standing that in any way limits the ability of Company to collect receivables
from its Account Debtors in such state shall be deemed a material adverse
effect. The execution, delivery and performance by Company of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party do not and will not
constitute (a) a violation of any applicable law or Company's articles or
certificate of incorporation or bylaws or (b) a material breach of any other
document, agreement or instrument to which Company is a party or by which
Company is bound. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which
Company is a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Company,
and are legal, valid and binding obligations of Company enforceable against
Company in accordance with their terms except as may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws or equitable
principles affecting creditors generally. No consent of, approval by,
registration or filing (other than required filings with the Securities Exchange
Commission) with or authorization from any governmental authority or agency is
required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by Company of
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

                  4.2      None of the Collateral is subject to any lien,
encumbrance, security interest or other claim of any kind or nature other than
Permitted Encumbrances. Company has not transferred, sold, pledged or given a
security interest in any of its assets (including, without limitation, its
Accounts, Inventory, machinery, and equipment) to any Person other than GBCC,
except in connection with any Permitted Encumbrance. There are no financing
statements on file in any public office governing any property of Company of any
kind, real or personal, in which Company is named in or has signed as the
debtor, except the financing statement or statements filed or to be filed in
respect of this Agreement, those filed in connection with Permitted Encumbrances
and pre-filed financing statements to which no security interest has attached.

                  4.3      Company is the sole owner and holder of, and has good
and marketable title to, all Collateral. This Agreement creates a valid security
interest in the Collateral in favor of GBCC, and such security interest is a
perfected, first priority security interest in the Collateral superior to the
rights of any other Person therein other than the rights of holders of Permitted
Encumbrances.

                  4.4      The amount of each Eligible Account is due and owing

                  8.3      The parties acknowledge and agree that:

                           (a)      GBCC may at any time and from time to time,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 10, file financing statements,
continuation statements, and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as
all assets of Company of the kind pledged hereunder and which contain any other
information required by revised Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code
("Revised Article 9") for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of any
financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether
Company is an organization, the type of organization, and any organizational
identification number issued to Company. Company agrees to furnish any such
information to GBCC promptly upon request. Any such financing statements,
continuation statements, or amendments may be signed by GBCC on behalf of
Company, as provided in Section 10, and may be filed at any time in any
jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 is then in effect in that
jurisdiction.

                                       27
<PAGE>

                           (b)      Company shall at any time and from time to
time, whether or not Revised Article 9 is in effect in any particular
jurisdiction, take such steps as GBCC may reasonably request for GBCC (i) to
obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to GBCC, of any
bailee having possession of any of the Collateral that the bailee holds such
Collateral for GBCC, (ii) obtain "control" of any Collateral consisting of
investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic
chattel paper (as such terms are defined in Revised Article 9 with corresponding
provisions in Revised Sections 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 relating to what
constitutes "control" for such items of Collateral), with any agreements
establishing control to be in form and substance satisfactory to GBCC (provided
that GBCC agrees not to send any instruction to any depositary bank or
securities intermediary under any control agreement or exercise its default
rights and remedies under the UCC unless an Event of Default shall have occurred
and is continuing), and (iii) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and
priority of GBCC's security interest in any of the Collateral and of the
preservation of its rights therein, whether in anticipation and following the
effectiveness of Revised Article 9 in any jurisdiction.

                           (c)      Nothing contained in this Section 8.3 shall
be construed to narrow the scope of GBCC's security interest in any of the
Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof or to impair or otherwise limit
any of the rights, powers, privileges or remedies of GBCC hereunder except (and
then only to the extent) mandated by Revised Article 9 to the extent then
applicable.

                  SECTION 9. COLLECTION. Subject to Section 5.15, Company shall
at all times maintain one or more lockbox accounts pursuant to a lockbox
arrangement acceptable to GBCC in its discretion with such banks as may be
selected by Company and be acceptable to GBCC in its discretion. Each invoice
representing an Account shall state on its face that amounts payable thereunder
are payable only at the Remittance Address. All amounts and proceeds (including
instruments and writings) received by Company shall be received in trust for the
benefit of GBCC hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of Company and
shall be immediately paid over to GBCC in the same form as received (with any
necessary endorsement) to be applied in the same manner as payments received
directly by GBCC. GBCC may, at any time in GBCC's own name or in the name of
Company, communicate, orally or in writing, with account debtors, parties to
contracts, and obligors in respect of instruments, chattel paper or other
Collateral to verify to GBCC's satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of
any such Accounts, contracts, instruments or chattel paper or other Collateral.
GBCC shall have the right at any time, after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default and without notice to Company, to notify any
or all Account Debtors on the Collateral of the assignment of the Collateral to
GBCC and to direct such Account Debtors to make payment of all amounts due or to
become due to Company directly to GBCC, and to the extent permitted by law, to
enforce collection of any Collateral and to adjust, settle or compromise the
amount or payment thereof. So long as no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, all collections of Collateral received by GBCC shall
be applied by GBCC to the payment of the Advances (such collections to be first
applied to fees and expenses, second to interest, third to Revolving Advances
and fourth to Term Advances then due), whether or not then due, then to all
other Obligations of Company to GBCC then due and any remaining funds shall be
delivered to Company. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default, any such remaining funds may be held by GBCC as
cash collateral ("Cash Collateral") until all

                                       28
<PAGE>

Obligations have been paid in full and GBCC has no further obligation to advance
funds to Company.

                  SECTION 10. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Company grants to GBCC an
irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest authorizing and
permitting GBCC, at its option, with or without notice to Company, to do any or
all of the following: (a) endorse the name of Company on any checks or other
evidences of payment whatsoever that may come into the possession of GBCC
regarding Collateral, including checks received by GBCC pursuant to Section 9
hereof; (b) receive, open and forward any mail addressed to Company and, if GBCC
is collecting the Accounts directly in accordance with the terms hereof, put
GBCC's address on any statements mailed to Account Debtors; (c) following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, pay, settle,
compromise, prosecute or defend any action, claim, conditional waiver and
release, or proceeding relating to Collateral; (d) upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, notify, in the name of Company, the U.S. Post Office to change
the address for delivery of mail addressed to Company to such address as GBCC
may designate (provided that GBCC shall turn over to Company all such mail not
relating to Collateral); (e) following the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, verify, sign, acknowledge, record, file for recording,
serve as required by law, any claim of mechanic's lien, stop notice or bonded
stop notice in the sole and absolute discretion of GBCC relating to any
Collateral; (f) insert all recording or service information in any mechanic's
lien or assignment of rights under stop notice/bonded stop notice which Company
has signed in connection with this Agreement, recorded or served to enforce
payment of the Collateral, if applicable; (g) execute and file on behalf of
Company any financing statement, amendment thereto or continuation thereof (i)
deemed necessary or appropriate by GBCC to protect GBCC's interest in and to the
Collateral or (ii) required or permitted under any provision of this Agreement;
and (h) do all other things necessary and proper in order to carry out the
provisions of this Section 10. The authority granted to GBCC herein is
irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and all amounts due to GBCC
hereunder have been paid in full. GBCC shall have no obligation to exercise any
of the rights granted to it hereunder.

                  SECTION 11. DEFAULT. An event of default ("Event of Default")
shall be deemed to have occurred hereunder, GBCC shall have no further
obligation to make any further Advances, and GBCC may immediately exercise its
rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral under this Agreement, the
Uniform Commercial Code and applicable law, upon the happening of one or more of
the following:

                           (a)      Company shall fail to pay on demand or
otherwise as and when required or due any amount required to be paid or owed by
Company to GBCC, whether hereunder or otherwise.

                           (b)      Any Obligor shall breach any covenant or
agreement made herein or in any other Transaction Document, that except that
with respect to the covenants contained in Section 5.3, Section 5.4 and with
respect to reporting requirements only, Section 5.5, Company may, up to four
times per year, be up to five calendar days late in delivering any documents to
GBCC required under such covenants.

                                       29
<PAGE>

                           (c)      Any warranty or representation made herein
or in any other Transaction Document shall be untrue in any material respect
when made or any report, certificate, schedule, financial statement, profit and
loss statement or other statement furnished by Company, or by any other person
on behalf of Company, to GBCC is not true and correct in any material respect
when furnished.

                           (d)      There shall be commenced by or against any
Obligor any voluntary or involuntary case under the federal Bankruptcy Code, or
any Obligor shall make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or a
receiver or custodian shall be appointed for any Obligor for a substantial
portion of its assets.

                           (e)      Any Obligor shall become insolvent in that
its debts are greater than the fair value of its assets, or any Obligor is
generally not paying its debts as they become due.

                           (f)      Any involuntary lien, garnishment,
attachment or the like, in excess of $50,000 in the aggregate, shall be issued
against or shall attach to the Collateral and the same is not released within
ten days.

                           (g)      A material adverse change in Company's
financial condition, business or operations or the value of the Collateral shall
have occurred.

                           (h)      Company shall have a federal or state tax
lien filed against any of its properties in an amount in excess of $50,000.

                           (i)      Either (i) any "accumulated funding
deficiency" (as defined in Section 412(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended) exists with respect to any ERISA Plan, or (ii) any Termination Event
occurs with respect to any ERISA Plan and the then current value of such ERISA
Plan's benefit liabilities exceeds the then current value of such ERISA Plan's
assets available for the payment of such benefit liabilities.

                           (j)      A final judgment in an amount for the
payment of money exceeding $50,000 (excluding any amounts covered by insurance
without reservation of rights) is entered against Company and, so long as there
is no execution of such judgment, the same shall not be satisfied, vacated or
stayed for a period of 30 consecutive days.

                           (k)      Any Guarantor shall repudiate his, her or
its obligations in respect of such guaranty.

                           (l)      U.S. Plastic Lumber Corp. shall cease to own
in the aggregate one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding capital stock of
Company.

                           (m)      Mark Alsentzer shall cease to hold the
office and position with Company held on the date hereof.

                           (n)      An "event of default" shall have occurred
under any agreement, document, or instrument evidencing Debt (other than trade
payables) of Company, or any Debt

<PAGE>

                           (o)      An "event of default" shall have occurred
under any agreement, document, or instrument evidencing Debt of U.S. Plastic
Lumber Corp. owing to Halifax Fund, L.P., or any Debt of U.S. Plastic Lumber
Corp. owing to Halifax Fund, L.P. is accelerated or called for payment prior to
the due date thereof.

                           (p)      A demand or other request for payment or
performance by U.S. Plastic Lumber Corp. under that certain Guaranty, dated as
of December 19, 2002, in favor of Bank of America, N.A., as agent, shall have
occurred.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in subsection (d) of this
section, all of the Obligations owing by Company to GBCC under any of the
Transaction Documents shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, without
demand, presentment, notice of demand or of dishonor and nonpayment, notice of
intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or any other notice or declaration
of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Company. During the
continuation of any other Event of Default, GBCC, at any time and from time to
time, may declare any or all of the Obligations owing by Company to GBCC under
any of the Transaction Documents immediately due and payable, all without
notice, demand, presentment, notice of demand or of dishonor and nonpayment,
notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or any notice or
declaration of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Company.
After any such acceleration (whether automatic or due to declaration by GBCC),
any obligation of GBCC to make any further Advances or loans of any kind under
this Agreement or any other agreement with Company shall terminate.

                  SECTION 12. REMEDIES AND APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.

                  12.1     In addition to, and without limitation of, the
foregoing provisions of this Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, GBCC may from time to time in its discretion,
without limitation and without notice except as expressly herein or under
applicable law: (a) exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other
rights and remedies provided for herein, under the other Transaction Documents
or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on
default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral); (b) require Company to, and Company hereby agrees that it will at
its expense, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by GBCC and make
it available to GBCC at a place to be designated by GBCC that is reasonably
convenient to both parties; (c) reduce its claim to judgment or foreclose or
otherwise enforce, in whole or in part, the security interest created hereby by
any available judicial procedure; (d) dispose of, at its office, on the premises
of Company or elsewhere, all or any part of the Collateral, as a unit or in
parcels, by public or private proceedings; (e) buy the Collateral, or any part
thereof, at any public sale, or at any private sale if the Collateral is of a
type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type that is subject to
widely distributed standard price quotations; (f) apply by appropriate judicial
proceedings for appointment of a receiver for the Collateral, or any part
thereof, and Company hereby consents to any such appointment; and (g) exercise
any other remedy permitted by law. Company agrees that, to the extent notice of
sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days' notice to Company of the
time and place of any public sale or the time

                                       31
<PAGE>

after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable
notification. GBCC shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral
regardless of whether any notice of sale has been given. GBCC may adjourn any
public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time
and place to which it was so adjourned.

                  12.2     If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, GBCC may in its discretion apply any Cash Collateral, and any cash
proceeds received by GBCC in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, to any or all of the
following in such order as GBCC may elect: (a) the repayment of all or any
portion of the Obligations; (b) the repayment of reasonable costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, incurred by GBCC
(whether or not litigation has been commenced or a judgment has been issued, and
if litigation has been commenced, whether at trial or any appellate level) in
connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody,
preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of
the rights of GBCC hereunder, or (iv) the failure of Company to perform or
observe any of the provisions hereof; (c) the payment or other satisfaction of
any liens and other encumbrances upon any of the Collateral; (d) the
reimbursement of GBCC for the amount of any obligations of Company paid or
discharged by GBCC, and of any expenses of GBCC payable by Company hereunder or
under the other Transaction Documents; (e) by holding the same as Collateral;
(f) the payment of any other amounts required by applicable law (including,
without limitation, Part 6 of Article 9 of the UCC or any successor or similar
applicable statutory provision); and (g) by delivery to Company or to whomsoever
shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent
jurisdiction shall direct.

                  SECTION 13. MISCELLANEOUS.

                  13.1     In the event that Company commits any act or omission
that prevents or unreasonably interferes with (a) GBCC's exercise of the rights
and privileges arising under the power of attorney granted in Section 10 of this
Agreement or (b) GBCC's perfection of or levy upon the security interest granted
in the Collateral, including any seizure of any Collateral, Company acknowledges
that such conduct will cause immediate, severe, incalculable and irreparable
harm and injury, and agrees that such conduct shall constitute sufficient
grounds to entitle GBCC to an injunction, writ of possession, or other
applicable relief in equity, and to make such application for such relief in any
court of competent jurisdiction, without any prior notice to Company.

                  13.2     All rights, remedies and powers granted to GBCC in
this Agreement, or in any other instrument or agreement given by Company to GBCC
or otherwise available to GBCC in equity or at law, are cumulative and may be
exercised singularly or concurrently with such other rights as GBCC may have.
These rights may be exercised from time to time as to all or any part of the
Collateral as GBCC in its discretion may determine. The making of an Advance by
GBCC during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default shall not
obligate GBCC to make any further Advances during the continuation of such
Default or Event of Default. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement
shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by GBCC and Company.

                                       32
<PAGE>

                  13.3     Company hereby agrees that GBCC may publicize the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement in newspapers, trade and similar
publications including, without limitation, the publication of a "tombstone".

                  13.4     The term of this Agreement shall be for three (3)
years from the date hereof (the "Initial Term"; the Initial Term and all
extensions thereof are herein called the "Term") and from year to year
thereafter unless either party hereto gives notice to the other party hereto not
more than 90 days or less than 30 days prior to the end of the Term that such
party wants to terminate the Agreement at the end of the Term, provided,
however, that GBCC may terminate this Agreement at any time effective
immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Company acknowledges
that it shall have no right to terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the
Term except as provided below, that termination of this Agreement at any time
prior to the end of the Term would result in the loss by GBCC of benefits under
this Agreement and that the damages incurred by GBCC as a result of such
termination would be difficult and impractical to ascertain. Therefore, in the
event this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of the Term for any reason
(i) on or before the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Company shall pay to
GBCC an early termination fee equal to up to three percent (3%) of the sum of
the Revolving Facility Limit and the then outstanding balance of the Term
Advance, (ii) after the first anniversary of the Closing Date but before the
second anniversary of the Closing Date, Company shall pay to GBCC an early
termination fee equal to up to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the sum of the
Revolving Facility Limit and the then outstanding balance of the Term Advance,
and (iii) after the second anniversary of the Closing Date but before the end of
the Term, Company shall pay to GBCC an early termination fee equal to up to
one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the sum of the Revolving Facility Limit and
the then outstanding balance of the Term Advance. As used herein, the term
"Closing Date" shall mean the date of this Agreement. Any termination of this
Agreement shall not affect GBCC's security interest in the Collateral, and this
Agreement shall continue to be effective, until all Obligations incurred
hereunder have been completed and satisfied in full and all commitments
hereunder have been terminated. Upon the occurrence of such events, at Company's
request, GBCC shall terminate its Liens created hereunder.

                  13.5     Intentionally Deleted.

                  13.6     Each and every provision, condition, covenant and
representation contained in this Agreement is, and shall be construed, to be a
separate and independent covenant and agreement. If any term or provision of
this Agreement shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
the Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

                  13.7     Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold
harmless and defend all Indemnified Persons from and against any and all
Indemnified Claims. Subject to the definition of "Indemnified Claims", THE
FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH INDEMNIFIED CLAIMS ARE
IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY
OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR
OMISSION OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON. Upon notification and demand, Company agrees
to provide defense of any Indemnified Claim and to pay all costs and expenses of
counsel selected by any Indemnified Person in respect thereof. Any

                                       33
<PAGE>

Indemnified Person against whom any Indemnified Claim may be asserted reserves
the right to settle or compromise any such Indemnified Claim as such Indemnified
Person may determine in its sole discretion, and the obligations of such
Indemnified Person, if any, pursuant to any such settlement or compromise shall
be deemed included within the Indemnified Claims. Except as specifically
provided in this section, Company waives all notices from any Indemnified
Person. The provisions of this Section 13.7 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

                  13.8     All grants, covenants and agreements contained in
this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that Company may not
delegate or assign any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement without
the prior written consent of GBCC. Any assignment in contravention of the

time grant participations in all or any part of the Obligations to any Person on
such terms and conditions as may be determined by GBCC in its sole and absolute
discretion, provided that the grant of such participation shall not relieve GBCC
of its obligations hereunder nor create any additional obligation of Company.

omitted by GBCC hereunder may be taken or omitted, as the case may be, by GBCC

or determination to be made by GBCC hereunder may be given, withheld or made, as
the case may be, by GBCC in its sole and absolute discretion.

The parties hereto may change the address at which they are to receive notices
hereunder by notice in writing in the foregoing manner given to the other. All
notices or demands sent in accordance with this Section 13.10 shall be deemed
received on the earlier of the date of actual receipt or three (3) Business Days
after the deposit thereof in the mail or one (1) Business Day after deposit
thereof with an overnight delivery service

                  13.11    Time is of the essence of this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents.

                  13.12    This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts each of which,
when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which,
when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.

                  13.13    Company and GBCC acknowledge that they have been
given the opportunity to consult with counsel and other advisors of their choice
prior to entering into this Agreement.

                  13.14    Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document by telefacsimile transmission shall be equally
as effective as delivery of an executed hard copy of the same. Any party
delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document by telefacsimile transmission shall also deliver an executed hard copy
of the same, but the failure by such party to deliver an executed hard copy
shall not affect the validity, enforceability and binding effect of this
Agreement or such other Transaction Document.

                  13.15    Neither GBCC's failure, at any time or times, to
require strict performance by Company of any provision of any Transaction
Document, nor GBCC's failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any
right, power or privilege under this Agreement, (a) shall waive, affect or
diminish any right of GBCC thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance therewith, or (b) shall operate as a waiver thereof. Any suspension
or waiver of a Default, Event of Default, or other provision under the
Transaction Documents must be in writing signed by an authorized employee of
GBCC to be effective and shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or
Event of Default, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of
the same or of a different type, and shall not be construed as a bar to any
right or remedy which GBCC would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

                  13.16    The Section titles contained in this Agreement and
any other Transaction Document are and shall be without substantive meaning or
content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the
parties hereto.

                  13.17    Company agrees that any claim or cause of action by
Company against GBCC, or any of GBCC's directors, officers, employees, agents,
accountants or attorneys, based upon, arising from, or relating to this
Agreement, or any other present or future agreement, or any other transaction
contemplated hereby or thereby or relating hereto or thereto, or any other
matter, cause or thing whatsoever, whether or not relating hereto or thereto,
occurred, done,

                                       35

omitted or suffered to be done by GBCC, or by GBCC's directors, officers,
employees, agents, accountants or attorneys, whether sounding in contract or in
tort or otherwise, shall be barred unless asserted by Company by the
commencement of an action or proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction by
the filing of a complaint within twenty-four (24) months after the first act,
occurrence or omission upon which such claim or cause of action, or any part
thereof, is based and service of a summons and complaint on an officer of GBCC
or any other Person authorized to accept service of process on behalf of GBCC,
within 30 days thereafter. Company agrees that such twenty-four (24) month
period of time is a reasonable and sufficient time for Company to investigate
and act upon any such claim or cause of action. The twenty-four (24) month
period provided herein shall not be waived, tolled, or extended except by a
specific written agreement of GBCC. This provision shall survive any termination
of this Agreement or any other agreement.

                  13.18    Neither GBCC, nor any Affiliate shall be liable for
any claims, demands, losses or damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed,
incurred or suffered by Company through the ordinary negligence of GBCC, or any
GBCC Affiliate. For the purpose of this Section 13.18, the term "GBCC Affiliate"
shall mean GBCC's directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other
Person affiliated with or representing GBCC.

                  13.19    Company agrees to give GBCC written notice of (i) any
action or inaction by GBCC or any attorney of GBCC in connection with any
Transaction Documents that may be actionable against GBCC or any attorney of
GBCC or (ii) any defense to the payment of the Obligations for any reason,
including, but not limited to, commission of a tort or violation of any
contractual duty or duty implied by law. Company agrees that unless such notice
is fully given as promptly as possible (and in any event within one hundred
twenty (120) days) after Company has knowledge of any such action, inaction or
defense, Company shall not assert, and Company shall be deemed to have waived,
any claim or defense arising therefrom.

                  13.20    Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or
ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Company or GBCC, whether
under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has
been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to
the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes
and intentions of all parties hereto.

ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT

GUARANTY BUSINESS CREDIT                    U.S. PLASTIC LUMBER LTD., a Delaware
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation         corporation

Name:   Ronald S. Montgomery                Name:   Bruce C. Rosetto
Title:  Senior Vice President               Title:  Secretary<PAGE>
                                                                    Exhibit 10.2

                      SECURED CONTINUING CORPORATE GUARANTY

                  FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and in consideration of any loan or other
financial accommodation heretofore or hereafter at any time made or granted to
U.S. PLASTIC LUMBER LTD. a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), by GUARANTY
BUSINESS CREDIT CORPORATION ("Lender"), the undersigned, U.S. PLASTIC LUMBER
CORP., a Nevada corporation ("Guarantor"), hereby agrees as follows:

                  1.       GUARANTY OF OBLIGATIONS. Guarantor unconditionally,
absolutely and irrevocably guarantees the full and prompt payment and
performance when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at all times
thereafter, of all obligations of Borrower to Lender, howsoever created, arising
or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or
hereafter existing or due or to become due, including, without limitation, under
or in connection with that certain Loan and Security Agreement of even date,
between Borrower and Lender (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to
time, the "Loan Agreement") and each of the documents, instruments and
agreements executed and delivered in connection therewith, as each may be
modified, amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time (all such
obligations are herein referred to collectively as the "Liabilities", and all
documents evidencing or securing any of the Liabilities are herein referred to,
collectively, as the "Loan Documents"). This Secured Continuing Corporate
Guaranty (this "Continuing Guaranty") is a guaranty of payment and performance
when due and not of collection.

                  In the event of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan
Agreement), Guarantor agrees on demand by Lender to pay and perform all of the
Liabilities as are then or thereafter become due and owing or are to be
performed under the terms of the Loan Documents. Guarantor further agrees to pay
all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) paid
or incurred by Lender in endeavoring to collect the Liabilities, or any part
thereof, and in enforcing this Continuing Guaranty.

                  2.       SECURITY FOR CONTINUING GUARANTY. This Continuing
Guaranty is secured by the security interest granted by Guarantor pursuant to
that certain Security Agreement between Guarantor and Lender dated as of even
date herewith (the "Security Document").

                  3.       CONTINUING NATURE OF GUARANTY AND LIABILITIES. This
Continuing Guaranty shall be continuing and shall not be discharged, impaired or
affected by:

                           (a)      the insolvency of Borrower or the payment in
full of all of the Liabilities at any time or from time to time;

                           (b)      the power or authority or lack thereof of
Borrower to incur the Liabilities;

                           (c)      the validity or invalidity of any of the
Loan Documents or the documents securing the same;

                           (d)      the existence or non-existence of Borrower
as a legal entity;
<PAGE>
                           (e)      any transfer by Borrower of all or any part
of any collateral in which Lender has been granted a lien or security interest
pursuant to the Loan Documents;

                           (f)      any statute of limitations affecting the
liability of Guarantor under this Continuing Guaranty or the Loan Documents or
the ability of Lender to enforce this Continuing Guaranty or any provision of
the Loan Documents or the Security Document; or

                           (g)      any right of offset, counterclaim or defense
of Guarantor, including, without limitation, those which have been waived by
Guarantor pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof.

                  4.       INSOLVENCY OF BORROWER OR GUARANTOR. Without limiting
the generality of any other provision hereof, Guarantor agrees that, to the
extent permitted under applicable law, in the event of the dissolution or
insolvency of Borrower or Guarantor or the inability of Borrower or Guarantor to
pay their respective debts as they mature, or an assignment by Borrower or
Guarantor for the benefit of creditors, or the institution of any proceeding by
or against Borrower or Guarantor alleging that Borrower or Guarantor is
insolvent or unable to pay their respective debts as they mature, Guarantor will
pay to Lender forthwith the full amount which would be payable hereunder by
Guarantor if all of the Liabilities were then due and payable, whether or not
such event occurs at a time when any of the Liabilities are otherwise due and
payable.

                  5.       PAYMENT OF THE LIABILITIES. Any amounts received by
Lender from whatever source on account of the Liabilities may be applied by
Lender toward the payment of such of the Liabilities, and in such order of
application, as Lender may from time to time elect, and notwithstanding any
payments made by or for the account of Guarantor pursuant to this Continuing
Guaranty.

                  Guarantor agrees that, if at any time all or any part of any
payment theretofore applied by Lender to any of the Liabilities is or must be
rescinded or returned by Lender for any reason whatsoever (including, without
limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower), such
Liabilities shall, for the purposes of this Continuing Guaranty and to the
extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have
continued in existence notwithstanding such application by Lender, and this
Continuing Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case
may be, as to such Liabilities, all as though such application by Lender had not
been made.

                  6.       PERMITTED ACTIONS OF LENDER. Lender may from time to
time, in its sole discretion and without notice to Guarantor, take any or all of
the following actions:

                           (a)      retain or obtain a security interest in any
assets of Borrower or any third party to secure any of the Liabilities or any
obligations of Guarantor hereunder;

                           (b)      retain or obtain the primary or secondary
obligation of any obligor or obligors, in addition to Guarantor, with respect to
any of the Liabilities;

                           (c)      extend or renew for one or more periods
(whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the
Liabilities;

                                       2
<PAGE>
                           (d)      waive, ignore or forbear from taking action
or otherwise exercising any of its default rights or remedies with respect to
any default by Borrower under the Loan Documents;

                           (e)      release, waive or compromise any obligation
of Guarantor hereunder or any obligation of any nature of any other obligor
primarily or secondarily obligated with respect to any of the Liabilities;

                           (f)      release its security interest in, or
surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for, all or any part
of any collateral now or hereafter securing any of the Liabilities or any
obligation hereunder, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not
longer than the original period) or release, waive, compromise, alter or
exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such
property; and

                           (g)      demand payment or performance of any of the
Liabilities from Guarantor at any time or from time to time, whether or not
Lender shall have exercised any of its rights or remedies with respect to any
property securing any of the Liabilities or any obligation hereunder or
proceeded against any other obligor primarily or secondarily liable for payment
or performance of any of the Liabilities.

                  7.       SPECIFIC WAIVERS. Without limiting the generality of
any other provision of this Continuing Guaranty, Guarantor hereby expressly
waives:

                           (a)      notice of the acceptance by Lender of this
Continuing Guaranty;

                           (b)      notice of the existence, creation, payment,
nonpayment, performance or nonperformance of all or any of the Liabilities;

                           (c)      presentment, demand, notice of dishonor,
protest, notice of protest and all other notices whatsoever with respect to the
payment or performance of the Liabilities or the amount thereof or any payment
or performance by Guarantor hereunder;

                           (d)      all diligence in collection or protection of
or realization upon the Liabilities or any thereof, any obligation hereunder or
any security for or guaranty of any of the foregoing;

                           (e)      any right to direct or affect the manner or
timing of Lender's enforcement of its rights or remedies;

                           (f)      any and all defenses which would otherwise
arise upon the occurrence of any event or contingency described in Paragraph 3
hereof or upon the taking of any action by Lender permitted hereunder;

                           (g)      any defense, right of set-off, claim or
counterclaim whatsoever and any and all other rights, benefits, protections and
other defenses available to Guarantor now or at any time hereafter, including,
without limitation, under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive, and California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or
726, and all successor sections; and

                                       3
<PAGE>
                           (h)      all other principles or provisions of law,
if any, that conflict with the terms of this Continuing Guaranty, including,
without limitation, the effect of any circumstances that may or might constitute
a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety.

                  8.       IRREVOCABILITY. Guarantor hereby further waives all
rights to revoke this Continuing Guaranty at any time, and all rights to revoke
any agreement executed by Guarantor at any time to secure the payment and
performance of Guarantor's obligations under this Continuing Guaranty,
including, without limitation, the Security Document.

                  9.       STATUTORY WAIVER OF RIGHTS AND DEFENSES REGARDING
ELECTION OF REMEDIES. Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an
election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a
nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation,
has destroyed Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against
Borrower by the operation of any applicable law, including without limitation
Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or otherwise.

                  10.      SUBORDINATION. Guarantor hereby subordinates any and
all indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor to the full and prompt payment and
performance of all of the Liabilities and Guarantor agrees that Lender shall be
entitled to receive payment of all Liabilities prior to Guarantor's receipt of
payment of any amount of any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor. Any payments
on such indebtedness to Guarantor, if Lender so requests, shall be collected,
enforced and received by Guarantor, in trust, as trustee for Lender and shall be
paid over to Lender on account of the Liabilities, but without reducing or
affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of
this Guaranty. Lender is authorized and empowered, but not obligated, in its
discretion, (a) in the name of Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit
claims in respect of, any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and to apply any
amounts received thereon to the Liabilities, and (b) to require Guarantor (i) to
collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, any indebtedness of
Borrower to Guarantor, and (ii) to pay any amounts received on such indebtedness
to Lender for application to the Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Guarantor shall be permitted to receive and retain all payments of any amount of
indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor in accordance with the terms and subject
to the conditions of the Loan Agreement until such time as Lender demands
payment under this Continuing Guaranty.

                  11.      WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Continuing Guaranty to the contrary, until the Liabilities are
paid and satisfied in full, the Loan Agreement has terminated and Lender shall
have no further obligation to provide financial accommodations to Borrower,
Guarantor hereby waives as to Lender (and no other third party) any claim or
other rights which Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower
or any other guarantor of all or any of the Liabilities that arise from the
existence or performance of Guarantor's obligations under this Continuing
Guaranty or any other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any right
of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, or indemnification,
any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Lender against Borrower
or any collateral which the Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not
such claim, remedy, or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or
common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including without
limitation the right to take or receive

                                       4
<PAGE>
from Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or
in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other
rights.

                  12.      FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCES. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, it is intended that this Guaranty and any liens and
security interests granted by Guarantor to secure this Guaranty shall not
constitute a "Fraudulent Conveyance" (as defined below). Consequently, Guarantor
agrees that if the Guaranty or any liens or security interests securing this
Guaranty would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a
Fraudulent Conveyance, this Guaranty and each such lien and security interest
shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause
this Guaranty or such lien or security interest to constitute a Fraudulent
Conveyance, and this Guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended
accordingly at such time. For purposes hereof, "Fraudulent Conveyance" means a
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under 11 U.S.C. Section.548 or a
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any
applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar law of any
state, nation or other governmental authority as in effect from time to time.

                  13.      ASSIGNMENT OF LENDER'S RIGHTS. Lender may, from time
to time, without notice to Guarantor, assign or transfer any or all of the
Liabilities or any interest therein and, notwithstanding any such assignment or
transfer of the Liabilities or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof,
the Liabilities shall be and remain the Liabilities for the purpose of this
Continuing Guaranty. Each and every immediate and successive assignee or
transferee of any of the Liabilities or of any interest therein shall, to the
extent of such party's interest in the Liabilities, be entitled to the benefits
of this Continuing Guaranty to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee
were Lender; provided, however, that unless Lender shall otherwise consent in
writing, Lender shall have an unimpaired right, prior and superior to that of
any such assignee or transferee, to enforce this Continuing Guaranty for its own
benefit as to those of the Liabilities which Lender has not assigned or
transferred.

                  14.      INDULGENCES NOT WAIVERS. No delay in the exercise of
any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial
exercise by Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy; nor shall any
modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Continuing Guaranty be
binding upon Lender, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and
delivered by Lender. No action of Lender permitted hereunder shall in any way
affect or impair the rights of Lender or the obligations of Guarantor under this
Continuing Guaranty.

                  15.      FINANCIAL CONDITION OF BORROWER. Guarantor represents
and warrants that it is fully aware of the financial condition of Borrower, and
Guarantor delivers this Continuing Guaranty based solely upon its own
independent investigation of Borrower's financial condition and in no part upon
any representation or statement of Lender with respect thereto. Guarantor
further represents and warrants that it is in a position to and hereby does
assume full responsibility for obtaining such additional information concerning
Borrower's financial condition as Guarantor may deem material to its obligations
hereunder, and Guarantor is not relying upon, nor expecting Lender to furnish it
any information in Lender's possession concerning Borrower's financial condition
or concerning any circumstances bearing on the existence or creation, or the
risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Liabilities.

                  Guarantor hereby waives any duty on the part of Lender to
disclose to Guarantor any facts it may now or hereafter know about Borrower,
regardless of whether Lender has reason to believe that any such facts
materially increase the risk beyond that which Guarantor intends to assume or
has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to Guarantor.

                  Guarantor hereby knowingly accepts the full range of risk
encompassed within a contract of "Continuing Guaranty" which includes, without
limitation, the possibility that Borrower will contract for additional
indebtedness for which Guarantor may be liable hereunder after Borrower's
financial condition or ability to pay its lawful debts when they fall due has
deteriorated.

                  16.      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents
and warrants to Lender that each of the following statements is accurate and
complete as of the date of this Continuing Guaranty:

                           (a)      this Continuing Guaranty has been duly
executed and delivered by Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of Guarantor, enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its
terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws or equitable
principles of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally;

                           (b)      the execution, delivery and performance of
this Continuing Guaranty do not (i) violate any provisions of law or any order
of any court or other agency of government (each, a "Requirement of Law"), (ii)
contravene any provision of any material contract or agreement to which
Guarantor is a party or by which Guarantor or Guarantor's assets are bound
(each, a "Contractual Obligation"), or (iii) result in the creation or
imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature upon any property,
asset or revenue of Guarantor except pursuant to or as set forth in the Security
Document;

                           (c)      all consents, approvals, orders and
authorizations of, and registrations, declarations and filings with, any
governmental agency or authority or other person or entity (including, without
limitation, the shareholders or partners of any entity), if any, which are
required to be obtained in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Continuing Guaranty or the performance of Guarantor's obligations hereunder have
been obtained, and each is in full force and effect;

                           (d)      Guarantor has paid all taxes and other
charges imposed by any governmental agency or authority due and payable by
Guarantor other than those which are being challenged in good faith by
appropriate proceedings;

                           (e)      To Guarantor's best knowledge, Guarantor is
not in violation of any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation other than
any violation the consequences of which could not have a material adverse effect
on Guarantor's ability to perform its obligations hereunder (a "Material Adverse
Effect"); and

                           (f)      no action, proceeding, investigation or
litigation is pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, overtly threatened
against Guarantor by any person or entity which, if adversely determined, could
have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  17.      GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION. Guarantor will
provide Lender in writing such financial and other information with respect to
Guarantor's assets and liabilities as Lender shall reasonably request from time
to time, in form satisfactory to Lender.

                  18.      BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS. This Continuing Guaranty
shall be binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor's successors and assigns and shall
inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns.

                  All references herein to a Borrower shall be deemed to include
its successors and assigns, and all references herein to Guarantor shall be
deemed to include Guarantor and Guarantor's successors and assigns.

                  In addition and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Continuing Guaranty or in any other document, instrument or
agreement between or among any of Lender, Borrower, Guarantor or any third
party, the obligations of Guarantor with respect to the Liabilities shall be
joint and several with any other person or entity that now or hereafter executes
a guaranty of any of the Liabilities separate from this Continuing Guaranty.

                  19.      NOTICES. All notices required or permitted to be

                  20.      GOVERNING LAW; ADDITIONAL WAIVERS. This Continuing
Guaranty has been delivered and shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws (as opposed to the conflicts of law provisions) of the
State of California.

                  GUARANTOR HEREBY

                           (i)      WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
                  ACTION TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED
                  TO THIS CONTINUING GUARANTY, AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LENDER ALSO
                  WAIVES SUCH RIGHT;

                           (ii)     IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF
                  ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY,
                  CALIFORNIA, OVER ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND
                  ANY MATTER ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS CONTINUING
                  GUARANTY;

                           (iii)    IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
                  GUARANTOR MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE OF AN

                                       7
<PAGE>
                  INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR
                  PROCEEDING;

                           (iv)     agrees that a final judgment in any such
                  action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced
                  in any other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any
                  other manner provided by law; and

                           (v)      agrees not to institute any legal action or
                  proceeding against Lender or any of Lender's directors,
                  officers, employees, agents or property concerning any matter
                  arising out of or relating to this Continuing Guaranty in any
                  court other than one located in Los Angeles County,
                  California.

                           (vi)     Nothing herein shall affect or impair
                  Lender's right to serve legal process in any manner permitted
                  by law or Lender's right to bring any action or proceeding
                  against Guarantor or its property in the courts of any other
                  jurisdiction. Wherever possible each provision of this
                  Continuing Guaranty shall be interpreted as to be effective
                  and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
                  Continuing Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under
                  such law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the
                  extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating
                  the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of
                  this Continuing Guaranty.

                  21.      ADVICE OF COUNSEL. GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
GUARANTOR HAS EITHER OBTAINED THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY
TO OBTAIN SUCH ADVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS
CONTINUING GUARANTY.

                  22.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Continuing Guaranty contains
the complete understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter herein. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor is not relying upon any
statements or representations of Lender not contained in this Continuing
Guaranty and that such statements or representations, if any, are of no force or
effect and are fully superseded by this Continuing Guaranty. This Continuing
Guaranty may only be modified by a writing executed by Guarantor and Lender
