                    SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

     This Separation Agreement and General Release (this "Agreement") is between
William Mahan ("Employee") and INTEGRATED INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. (hereinafter
"IIS"), dated the date set forth adjacent to Employee's signature.

     WHEREAS, Employee was employed by IIS. Employee and IIS desire to resolve
all claims, disputes and causes of action which Employee, Employee's heirs,
attorneys, executors, administrators and assigns have or may have against IIS.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.  Termination of Employment. The employment of Employee with IIS is
            terminated as of January 10, 2003 (the "Separation Date").

Section 2.  Payment. In addition to all other wages and benefits which IIS has
            paid, IIS shall continue Employee's salary and benefits (as defined
            below) in effect as of the Separation Date for a period of two (2)
            months from the Separation Date (the "Separation Payments"), with
            all Separation Payments terminating on March 10, 2003. Benefits
            include and are limited to IIS' portion of the premiums for
            Employee's (including dependents) coverage under IIS' health care,
            life insurance, and dental plans. The Separation Payments shall be
            made on IIS' regularly scheduled pay periods. The Separation Payment
            is in consideration of (a) the covenants of Employee as set forth in
            this Agreement, and (b) the release of all claims, disputes and
            causes of action which Employee, Employee's heirs, attorneys,
            executors, administrators or assigns have or may have against IIS,
            its predecessors, or any other related entity, as set forth in
            Section 3 below. The Agreement is not effective nor will the
            Separation Payment be paid to Employee until after the Employee
            executes this Agreement.

Section 3.  Release of IIS. In consideration of receipt by Employee of the
            matters in Section 2, supra, which Employee acknowledges is in
            addition to anything of value to which Employee is currently
            entitled, Employee, on behalf of Employee and Employee's heirs,
            attorneys, executors, successors, administrators and assigns, does
            hereby release, acquit and forever discharge IIS, and its respective
            successors, assigns, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliated companies
            and benefit plans and its respective present and former affiliates,
            directors, officers, fiduciaries, employees, agents, successors and
            assigns, from any and all liabilities, damages, causes of action and
            claims of any nature, kind or description whatsoever, whether
            accrued or to accrue, which Employee ever had, now has or hereafter
            may have against any of them, known or unknown, that are based on
            facts occurring the day of and prior to the day Employee executes
            this Agreement or the Separation Date, whichever is later,
            including, but not limited to, any claims

<PAGE>

            under any state or federal law or statute, including, but not
            limited to, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the
            Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Civil Rights Acts of
            1964 and 1991, the Family and Medical Leave Act, any applicable
            workers' compensation law, and any claim (state tort, contract or
            otherwise), matter or action related to Employee's employment and/or
            affiliation with, or termination and separation from, IIS and its
            affiliates.

            The parties agree that the Employment Agreement dated November 28,
            2001, is terminated upon the Separation Date and that all
            post-termination provisions of the Employment Agreement, including
            but not limited to those contained in the CONFIDENTIALITY, RETURN OF
            MATERIALS AND POST-TERMINATION RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS provisions,
            shall remain in effect and are binding upon Employee as further
            defined in the Employment Agreement.

Section 4.  No Release of Vested Benefits. Notwithstanding anything in Section 3
            hereof, Employee does not by this Agreement waive any rights
            Employee may have to vested benefits or account balances in any
            retirement plan which vested benefits or account balances, as the
            case may be, shall be paid over to Employee in accordance with the
            provisions of the respective plans. Employee shall remain on IIS's
            medical, dental and life insurance coverage through March 10, 2003,
            except to the extent that any medical and dental coverage is
            extended in accordance with the right of Employee to do so mandated
            under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget and Reconciliation Act of
            1986.

            to any person, including, but not limited to, any past, present or
            prospective employee of IIS. Employee further agrees that disclosure
            by Employee of the terms and conditions of this Agreement in
            violation of this Section constitutes a material breach of the
            Agreement.

            (i)    that Employee has been fully informed and is fully aware of

            (iv)   that Employee has a full seven (7) days following the
                   execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement and has
                   been and is hereby advised in writing that this Agreement
                   shall not become effective or enforceable until the
                   revocation period has expired; and

            (v)    that Employee accepts the terms of this Agreement as fair and
                   equitable under all the circumstances and voluntarily
                   executes this Agreement.

Section 7.  Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from making any
            statements that are critical or derogatory of any IIS operation or
            about any employee of IIS. This restriction shall apply to any
            statement, written or oral, direct or indirect, voluntarily made.

     Madison, WI  53703                     Tempe, Az  85281
     (the "Bank")                           (the "Business")

This Agreement is between the Bank and the Business and is intended to govern
the sale of Receivables, as defined below, by the Business to the Bank. The
Business will sell, and the Bank may purchase, Receivables arising from the
sales or services to Customers by the Business. The accepted terms are as
follows:

SECTION 1:  DEFINITIONS

     1.1  "Credit Application and Agreement" means a Credit Application and
Agreement executed by a Customer and any other agreement or documentation that
governs the terms and disclosures relating to a Receivable.

     1.2  "Credit Memo" means a credit memo or similar evidence (whether in
written or electronic form) reflecting a credit, other than a credit arising
from a payment, to a Customer's account with the Business.

     1.3. "Customer" means a debtor obligated on one or more Receivables which
arose from goods the Business sold or services it rendered to the Customer.

     1.4. "Face Amount" of a Receivable means on any date, the outstanding
balance of such Receivable (after taking into account, without duplication, all
payments, returns, credits, or allowances of any nature at any time issued,
owing, granted or outstanding), plus any taxes imposed in connection with such
Receivable.

     1.5  "Invoice" means an invoice or similar evidence (whether in written or
electronic form) of the terms of a non-cash sale of goods or provision of
services previously made by the Business to a Customer.

     1.6  "Net Amount" of a Receivable means the Face Amount of a Receivable
less the Service Charge.

     1.7. "Obligations" means all of the Business's obligations to the Bank,
whether pursuant to this Agreement, under any note, contract, guaranty,
accommodation or otherwise, however and whenever created, arising or evidenced,
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now or later existing or
due.

     1.8  "Receivables" means all accounts, instruments, contract rights,
chattel paper, documents, and general intangibles arising from the Business's
sale of goods or rendering of services, and any proceeds from those, and all
security and guaranties therefore, whether now existing or later created, that

and absolute discretion.

     1.9  "Repurchase Obligation" means the liability of the Business to the
Bank under this Agreement in an amount equal on any date to the Face Amount of
Receivables on that date, plus attorneys' fees (if incurred) and accrued and
unpaid finance charges related to such Receivables.

<PAGE>

     1.10 "Reserve" means funds of the Business used to provide for the funding
of the Business's Repurchase Obligation. "Reserve Account" means the deposit
account, 35-0150908 of the Business containing the Reserve established pursuant
to Section 2.5 of this Agreement.

     1.11 "Service Charge" means a discount equal to 1.95 percent (1.95%) of the
Face Amount of each Receivable the Business offers to the Bank that is acquired
by the Bank. The Business acknowledges that the Service Charge is a discount for
value and in no event constitutes interest or a similar charge, and that the
transactions described in this Agreement are not transactions for the use,
forbearance or detention of money. The Service Charge has been agreed upon by
the parties and represents a reasonable and customary fair market value
discount.

SECTION 2:  SALE; PURCHASE PRICE; BILLING; RESERVE

     2.1  Assignment and Sale. The Bank hereby purchases from the Business, and
the Business hereby assigns and sells to the Bank, as absolute owner, the
Business's entire interest in such of its currently outstanding Receivables as
are detailed and attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement, as well as its future
Receivables represented by Invoices the Business delivers to the Bank. The
Business acknowledges that the Receivables listed on Exhibit A are not now, nor
have they ever been declared to be in default, nor is the Business aware of any
offsets, disputes, or collectibility issues regarding any of said Receivables.
The total outstanding Face Amount of Receivables purchased by the Bank will
never exceed $4,200,000, unless agreed to by the Bank. The Business and the Bank
agree that: (a) the Business will submit to the Bank Invoices representing
receivables arising from all sales of goods or rendering of services to
Customers for the Bank's determination of acceptability as Receivables and that
the only "valid" receivables as defined in the Business Manager Initial Funding
checklist shall be offered by Business to Bank for purchase; (b) the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are account purchase transactions;
(c) the Receivables are purchased by the Bank from the Business at a discount;
(d) the purchase and sale of the Receivables vests absolute right, title and
ownership of such Receivables together with all benefits of ownership, including
servicing rights and rights to verify Receivables with Customers, in the Bank;
and (e) the Business has no right to reacquire, redeem, or otherwise obtain
title to the Receivables or any proceeds thereof. The Business further sells and
assigns to the Bank all of the Business's rights as an unpaid vendor, lienor, or
lienholder, all of its related rights of stoppage in transit, replevin and
reclamation, and rights against third parties (all of which will constitute part
of the Receivables), and agrees to cooperate with the Bank in its exercise of
these rights. The Business and the Bank agree to execute and deliver such
further instruments, documents and endorsements as may be necessary to
accomplish the sales and purchases described herein and to carry out the
purposes of this Agreement.

     2.2  Purchase Price. The purchase price of the Receivables will be equal to
the Net Amount. On or before the next banking day after delivery of acceptable
Invoices to the Bank, the Bank will pay the purchase price for any Receivable to
the Business by crediting the Net Amount, less the Reserve, to the Business's
primary account with the Bank and by crediting the Reserve to the Business's
Reserve Account. The Business and the Bank have agreed upon the purchase price
of the Receivables as reasonably reflecting their fair market value.

     2.3  Documentation. The Business will provide the Bank with appropriate
Credit Applications and Agreements, Invoices, Credit Memos, and payment
information (if applicable) related to all sales and services creating
Receivables of Customers, and such other documents and proof of delivery of
goods or rendering of services as the Bank may reasonably require. As to the
Receivables described on Exhibit A, the payment of the purchase price by the
Bank will be conclusive evidence of assignment and sale, and, if the Bank so
requires, any Invoices the Business may later send (if any) will clearly
indicate that the related Receivables have been assigned, sold, and are payable
to the Bank only.

     2.4  Billing. The Bank will send a monthly statement to all Customers
itemizing their account activity during the preceding billing period, unless
otherwise agreed to by the parties. All Customers will be

                                       2
<PAGE>

instructed by the Business to make payments to a post office box controlled by
the Bank. All payments received from or for the account of a Customer will be
applied to the obligations of that Customer. Payment will be deemed made when
received by the Bank. All variations, modifications or extensions of
indebtedness on Receivables sold to the Bank under this Agreement will be made
only by the Bank. Nothing in this Agreement authorizes the Business to collect
Receivables sold to the Bank. In the event the Business receives payments on any
Receivables, it will receive those payments in trust for the Bank and (a) will
provide the Bank with reports on a daily basis, as received from Wells Fargo,
identifying the Receivables it has received; and (b) shall wire transfer to Bank
the Receivables it has received on Friday (or the last business day) of each
week. The Business will pay to the Bank any finance charges paid by a customer
pursuant to the applicable Credit Application and Agreement.

     2.5  Reserve. The Bank will retain a portion of the sums payable from the
Bank to the Business as a Reserve, the amount of which the Bank may adjust from
time to time in its reasonable discretion, to provide for satisfaction of the
Business's Repurchase Obligation. The Reserve will be held in a separate
interest-bearing account, 35-01509081, for the benefit of the Business but
subject to Bank's security interest and right of setoff in said account.
     (i)The initial amount of the Reserve will be calculated to equal the sum of
     a., b., c., and d. below:
          a.   17% of the Face Amount of all Receivables initially purchased by
               the Bank that are less than 30 days past due or less than 60 days
               from invoice date;
          b.   17% of the Face Amount of all Receivables initially purchased by
               the Bank that are between 31 and 60 days past due or between 61
               and 90 days from invoice date;
          c.   17% of the Face Amount of all Receivables initially purchased by
               the Bank that are between 61 and 90 days past due or between 91
               and 120 days from invoice date;
          d.   if the Bank elects to purchase such receivables, 100% of the Face
               Amount of all Receivables initially purchased by the Bank that
               are greater than 90 days past due or greater than 120 days from
               invoice date.
     (ii) Thereafter, and subject to the Bank's right to adjust the Reserve in
     its reasonable discretion, the Bank will retain as Reserve and deposit in
     the Reserve Account 17% of the Face Amount of all new Receivables purchased
     by the Bank subsequent to its initial purchase of the Receivables.

SECTION 3: REPURCHASE OF RECEIVABLES; SECURITY INTEREST

     3.1 Required Repurchase. With respect to any Receivables initially
purchased by the Bank, the Bank may require the Business to repurchase all or
any portion of such Receivables from any particular Customer if any minimum
payment due on one or more of such Receivables remains unpaid following 90 days
after its due date. With respect to any Receivables purchased after the Bank's
initial purchase, the Bank may require the Business to repurchase all or any
portion of such Receivables from any particular Customer if any minimum payment
due on one or more of such Receivables remains unpaid following 90 days after
its due date. For purposes of this Agreement, the aging status of Receivables
purchased from the Business, as shown on the aging report of Receivables
produced or generated by the Bank, will be deemed conclusive (absent manifest
error) in determining which Receivables the Bank may require the Business to
repurchase. Regardless of when purchased, the Bank may require the Business to
repurchase all or any portion of such Receivables from any particular Customer
if such Customer is bankrupt or insolvent, or if any dispute arises with a
Customer regarding such Receivables (including, but not limited to, any alleged
deduction, defense, offset or counterclaim). The Bank may require the Business
to repurchase any or all outstanding Receivables (a) upon a Default, as defined
in Section 8, or (b) upon the termination of this Agreement. Any decision by the
Bank to require repurchase of less than the maximum amount permitted by this
Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of the Bank's rights to require such
repurchase to the maximum extent permitted in this Agreement.

     3.2 Effecting Repurchase. Should the Bank require repurchase of one or more
Receivables, the Business will be liable to the Bank for payment of the
Repurchase Obligation with respect to such Receivables. Upon a Default or
termination under this Agreement, the Repurchase Obligation will also

                                       3
<PAGE>

include the amount of all indemnities and other obligations of the Business
arising under this Agreement. Without notice to or demand on the Business, the
Bank may debit the amount of such Repurchase Obligation (and any amount
necessary to bring the Reserve to the level required by the Bank in its sole and
reasonable discretion) against the Business's Reserve Account, or any other
deposit account of the Business with the Bank. In the event such accounts
contain insufficient funds for the Bank's debit, or the Bank elects not to make
such debit, the Business agrees to pay any such deficiency or shortfall on
demand. The Bank will have no undertaking with respect to the billing or
collection of Receivables so repurchased.

     3.3  Security Interest. The Business hereby grants the Bank a security
interest in all of its present and future accounts, instruments, contract
rights, chattel paper, documents and general intangibles (in each case as
defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect under the State law that
governs this Agreement) and any proceeds from those, and all returned,
repossessed, and reclaimed goods, and related books and records, to secure all
of the Business's Obligations, and agrees to execute appropriate UCC-1 financing
and other related statements. Business may sell up to $400,000 of equipment or
furniture owned by Business without remitting the proceeds of such sales to the
Bank. Within 30 days of the date of this Agreement, Business shall provide Bank
with an itemization of equipment and furniture it has sold and the proceeds from
said sales that it has retained subsequent to January 25, 2002. Business shall
provide an updated itemization and disclosure of sale proceeds to Bank every six
(6) months thereafter during the term of this Agreement or the Subordinated
Note, whichever is longer. In addition, the Business grants the Bank a security
interest in the Reserve and in the Reserve Account to secure all of the
Business's Obligations. The Business agrees to execute such additional documents
and take such further action as Bank deems necessary or desirable in order to
perfect the security interests granted here and otherwise to effectuate the
purposes of the Agreement. In the event that the Bank requires additional
security for the Business's obligations under this Agreement, and the Business
or other party executes additional security agreements, pledge agreements,
guaranties and documents of similar significance (collectively, the "Additional
Security Documents,"), terms used therein such as, but not limited to, "loans,"
"indebtedness," and "obligations," will be deemed to include the Repurchase
Obligation as defined in this Agreement. Despite the provisions of the
Additional Security Documents, the Repurchase Obligation secured by those
documents will not constitute a loan.

SECTION 4:  REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

     4.1  Representations and Warranties. The Business represents and warrants
that: (a) it is fully authorized to enter into and perform under this Agreement,
and that this Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation; (b)
the Business is in good standing in the State of its organization; (c) it is not
the present intent of the Business to seek protection under any bankruptcy laws;
(d) its Receivables are currently and were at the time of their creation, bona
fide and existing obligations of Customers of the Business arising out of its
sales or services, free and clear of all security interests, liens, and claims
whatsoever of third parties; (e) the documentation under which the Receivables
are payable authorize the payee to charge and collect interest at the rate
provided in such documentation; (f) all Receivables and all documents and
practices related to them comply with all applicable federal and state laws; (g)
the Receivables will be paid by Customers prior to the date of required
repurchase or will be repurchased by the Business pursuant to Sections 3.1 and
3.2; (h) the collateral in which a security interest is granted in Section 3.3
or in any Additional Security Documents is not subject to any other security
interest, lien or encumbrance whatsoever (except in favor of the Bank), and the
Business will not permit such collateral to become so encumbered without the
Bank's prior written consent; (i) the Business's inventory is not subject to any
security interest, lien or encumbrance whatsoever, other than to Bank, and the
Business will not permit its inventory to become so encumbered without the
Bank's prior written consent; (j) upon the funding and payment to creditors
under the Accord, as referenced in the commitment letter from Bank to Business
dated October 1, 2002, Business's Balance Sheet will show its assets exceeding
its liabilities and shall continue to reflect a positive balance (except to the
extent assets may be reduced due to the possible writeoff of Good Will related
to the acquisition of Goliath Networks, Inc.)

                                       4

     4.2  Covenants. The Business covenants that (i) it will allow the Bank to
review and inspect during reasonable business hours, and the Business will
supply all financial information, financial records, and documentation on the
Business, any guarantors, or any Customer, that the Bank may request; (ii) with
respect to each Receivable as it arises: (a) the Business will have made
delivery of the goods and/or will have rendered the services represented by the
Invoice, and the goods and/or services will have been accepted; (b) the Business
will have preserved and will continue to preserve any liens and any rights to
liens available by virtue of the sales and/or services; (c) the Customer will
not be the Business's affiliate; (d) the Bank's copy of the Invoice will be

knowledge of any dispute or potential dispute that may impair the validity of
the transaction or the Customer's obligation to pay the related Receivable in
accordance with its terms; (f) the Business will have the right to render the
services and/or to sell the goods creating the Receivable, and will do so in
compliance with all applicable laws; (g) the Business will have paid or provided

any major upgrades and/or changes to its accounting software that have a
material impact on the Business' ability to transmit timely and accurate

in its accounting books and records as absolute sales of Receivables to the
Bank; the Business will reimburse and indemnify the Bank for all loss, damage
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in defending such
transactions as absolute sales of Receivables, or as a result of the
recharacterization of such transactions; and (iv) in the event of the
commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or
against the Business, the Business will not oppose or object to any motion by
the Bank seeking relief from the automatic stay provisions of such laws with
respect to the Reserve or the Reserve Account, or to any motion by the Bank with
respect to the Receivables.

SECTION 5:  FORMS AND PROCEDURES; RESPONSIBILITY FOR USE

     5.1  Forms and Procedures. The Business will use only forms, agreements,
and advertising materials supplied to or approved by the Bank in connection with
the Receivables, and will follow all procedures that are satisfactory to the
Bank in connection with the use of such forms, agreements, and advertising
materials. The Bank does not desire to manage or operate the Business but to
insure that the Business is properly representing the billing terms to its
Customers.

     5.2  Responsibility for Use. The Business is solely responsible for the
adequacy, completeness, delivery and accuracy of the raw data relating to the
Receivables, its preparation in the form required by the Bank, and its
transmission to the Bank. The Business provides to the Bank all information used
to create the form of credit application and agreement and other documentation.
The Business understands that these documents should be reviewed by the
Business's counsel, as the Bank makes no representation or warranty as to their
enforceability in the Business's state or their compliance with applicable
federal and state laws. The Bank and the Business agree that the Bank is the
owner of all Receivables purchased by the Bank, and that all activities of the
Bank in connection with the purchase of Receivables, receipt of payments for the
Receivables, generation of information, and processing of data, is for the
account of the Bank's own affairs, and that the information generated in
connection with those activities is the property of the Bank. The Bank is not
performing as a collection agency under this Agreement.

SECTION 6:  POWER OF ATTORNEY

     The Business appoints the Bank as its attorney-in-fact to receive, open,
and dispose of all mail addressed to the Business relating to Receivables; to
endorse the Business's name upon any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money
orders, and other evidences of payment of Receivables that may come into the
Bank's possession, and to deposit or otherwise handle the same; and to do all
other acts and things necessary to carry out the terms of this Agreement. This
power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable while any Receivable owned
by the Bank remains unpaid.

                                       5

SECTION 7:  APPLICABLE LAW

     This Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced according to the
laws of the State of Wisconsin.

SECTION 8:  DEFAULT

     8.1  Events of Default. The following events will constitute a default (a
"Default") under the terms of this Agreement: (a) the Business fails to pay the
Repurchase Obligation or any other payment obligation of the Business under this
Agreement on demand, or the Business fails to pay any indebtedness of the
Business owed to the Bank according to its terms; (b) the Business breaches the

Agreement within ten (10) days after the date that written notice is given to
the Business; (d) any warranty, representation or statement whenever made by the
Business in connection with this Agreement proves to be false in any material

warranty, representation or statement has become false in any material respect;

indebtedness to Bank; (f) dissolution or termination of the Business if the
Business is a corporation, partnership, or other entity, or if the Business is
an individual, the death of such individual; (g) transfer of more than 50% of
ownership of the business, whether it is a corporation, partnership or other
entity, without prior written consent by the Bank; (h) the Business's
insolvency; (i) the assignment for the general benefit of the Business's
creditors, the appointment of a receiver or trustee for its assets, the
commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or
against the Business, or any proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation,
settlement of claims against or winding up of its affairs; (j) the termination
or withdrawal of any guaranty for the Business's Obligations; (k) the Business
fails to pay when due any tax imposed on it, or any tax lien is filed against
the Business or any of its assets, unless the tax is contested by the Business
in good faith in appropriate proceedings; (l) any judgment against the Business
remains unpaid, or has not been stayed on appeal, discharged, bonded or
dismissed, for a period of 30 days; (m) the Business discontinues its business
as a going concern; (n) failure to substantially complete the Accord as defined
in Bank's commitment letter to Business dated October 1, 2002; or (o) the Bank
in good faith believes the prospect of the Business's payment or performance of
its Obligations have been impaired.

     8.2  Effect of Default. Upon the occurrence of any Default, in addition to
any rights the Bank has under this Agreement or applicable law, the Bank may
immediately terminate this Agreement, at which time all Obligations the Business
owes to the Bank will immediately become due and payable without notice, and the
Bank's obligations to the Business will cease. After the occurrence of a
Default, the Bank will have the right to withhold any further payments to the
Business, and none of the Bank's rights or collateral will be adversely affected
by such action.

SECTION 9:  NON-LIABILITY OF BANK; RELEASE; INDEMNITY; WAIVER

     Except for a breach by the Bank of this Agreement, the Business releases,
discharges, and acquits the Bank, its officers, directors, employees,
participants, agents, successors and assigns from any and all claims, demands,
losses, and liability of any nature which the Business ever had, now or later
can, will or may have in connection with, or arising out of, the transactions
described in this Agreement and the documentation thereof. The Bank will not be
liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages, such as loss of
anticipated revenues or other economic loss in connection with, or arising out
of, any default in performance or other matter arising under this Agreement. Nor
will the Bank be liable for any errors of judgment or mistake of fact when
acting as the Business's attorney-in-fact, pursuant to Section 6, or liable for
delay in the performance of the Bank's duties caused by strike, lawsuit, riot,
civil disturbance, fire, shortage of supplies or materials, or any other cause
reasonably beyond the Bank's control. The Business indemnifies and holds the
Bank, its officers, directors, employees, participants, agents, successors and
assigns harmless from (and will pay all reasonable attorneys' fees with respect
to) any loss or claim involving breach of

                                       6
<PAGE>

warranty or representation by the Business, any claim or liability sustained by
virtue of acting in reliance upon data or information furnished by the Business
to the Bank, and any loss or claim by any Customer relating to goods and/or
services (or the manner or type of their sale or provision) giving rise to
Receivables purchased by the Bank hereunder. IF ANY FORM OF LITIGATION IS
INSTITUTED BY THE BUSINESS AGAINST THE BANK FOR VIOLATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR
ANY WRONGFUL CONDUCT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, BUSINESS HEREBY EXPRESSLY
WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. BUSINESS FURTHER AGREES THAT ITS DAMAGES WILL
BE LIMITED, IN ANY CASE, TO THE AMOUNT OF THE SERVICE CHARGE PAID BY THE
BUSINESS TO THE BANK DURING THE PRECEDING TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD.

SECTION 10:  EFFECTIVE DATE; TERMINATION; BINDING EFFECT

     This Agreement will be effective when accepted by the Bank, and will
continue in full force and effect until the earlier of: (a) one year after the
effective date of this Agreement, or (b) sixty (60) days after written notice of
termination has been given by one party to the other (in each case subject to
immediate termination upon a Default); and the term of this Agreement will
automatically be extended for periods of one year each following its otherwise
scheduled termination, subject to Section 8.2 above, and to the parties' rights
to terminate this Agreement under clause (b) of this Section 10. Upon
termination of this Agreement, the Business will pay all of its Obligations to
the Bank, and in any event, the Business will remain liable to the Bank for any
deficiency remaining after liquidation of any collateral. The Bank may withhold
any payment to the Business unless supplied with an indemnity satisfactory to
the Bank. This Agreement will bind the Business and the Business's heirs,
executors, successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of the Bank and
the Bank's successors and assigns. The Business agrees that the Bank may assign
this Agreement or delegate its duties under this Agreement, but that the
Business may not do so without the Bank's prior written approval.

SECTION 11:  ATTORNEY'S FEES; PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS; WAIVER; SEVERABILITY;
HEADINGS; ENTIRE AND CONTROLLING AGREEMENT; NOTICES; COUNTERPARTS; SAVINGS
PROVISIONS

     The Business will pay all reasonable expenses incurred by the Bank in
connection with the execution of this Agreement (up to $15,000), including
expenses incurred in connection with the filing of financing statements,
continuation statements and record searches. Business shall pay such expenses
upon request of the Bank within 30 days of the closing of the facility or, if no
closing occurs by October 15, 2002, within 30 days of invoice presentation to
Business (if the facility does not close through no fault of IIS, IIS shall not
be obligated to pay these fees and costs). All past-due obligations of the
Business arising under this Agreement will bear interest at the maximum
nonusurious rate permitted under applicable state or federal law. The Business
hereby waives grace, demand (other than demand pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof),
presentment for payment, notice of dishonor or default, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration, protest and notice of protest, and bringing
of suit against the Business. Upon liquidation of any collateral, settlement or
prosecution of a dispute with any Customer, or enforcement of any obligation of
the Business under this Agreement, the Business will pay to the Bank, and the
Bank may charge to the Business's account, all costs and expenses incurred,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, and such costs, expenses and fees will
constitute part of the Business's Obligations. No delay or failure on the Bank's
part in exercising any right, privilege, or option will operate as a waiver of
such, or of any other right, privilege, or option, and no waiver, amendment or
modification of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless in writing
signed by the Bank, and then only to the extent stated. Should any provision of
this Agreement be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, the validity of
the remaining provisions will not be affected. The section headings are for
convenience only, and will not define or limit the scope, extent, meaning or
intent of this Agreement. This Agreement embodies the Business's entire
agreement as to its affiliation with the Bank's Business Manager program,
although the Business anticipates that the Bank will subsequently outline
certain depository and other bank procedures. In the event of any inconsistency
between this Agreement and any other agreement signed by the Business and the
Bank in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to, any
Additional Security Documents, the terms and provisions of this Agreement will
control, and the terms and provisions of any such other document will be
ineffective to the extent of any such inconsistency. Any notice,

                                       7
<PAGE>

request or demand to be given will be deemed given when deposited with a
delivery service addressed to, or sent by registered or certified mail to, the
address of the recipient listed at the beginning of this Agreement or to
subsequent addresses which have been properly noticed to the other party. This
Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, which when taken together,
will constitute one and the same Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are account purchase transactions;
however, if they should ever be recharacterized by any court, nothing contained
in this Agreement or in any Additional Security Documents will be construed, or
will operate in any event, so as to require Business to pay interest at a rate
greater than the highest lawful rate of interest permitted by the laws then in
force and governing this Agreement. In no event, whether by reason of
acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations due or otherwise, will Service
Charges contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to Bank,
exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any
circumstance whatsoever, Service Charges would otherwise be payable to Bank in
excess of the maximum lawful amount, the Service Charges will be reduced to the
maximum amount permitted under applicable law, and if from any circumstance Bank
will have received anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess
of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excess will be applied to
the reduction of the principal amount of Obligations and not to the payment of
Service Charges. If such excess interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the
principal amount of Obligations, such excess will be refunded to Business. All
Service Charges paid or agreed to be paid to Bank, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, will be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the
full term of the Agreement until payment in full of all principal Obligations
owing by Business, so that the Service Charges for such full term will not
exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.

SECTION 12:  ACKNOWLEDGMENT

     THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A RELEASE OF
CLAIMS AND WAIVERS OF CERTAIN RIGHTS, AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN FULLY
UNDERSTOOD PRIOR TO EXECUTION. BUSINESS FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT
HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH ITS OWN LEGAL COUNSEL REGARDING THIS
AGREEMENT AND ITS FULL LEGAL EFFECT, AND THAT IT IS NOT RELYING UPON ANY ORAL
REPRESENTATIONS ON THE PART OF THE BANK, ITS EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS IN ENTERING
INTO THIS AGREEMENT.
