                          D&O INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

         This D&O Indemnification Agreement, dated as of _____________, 2001
(this "Agreement"), is made by and between Technical Consumer Products, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and __________________ ("Indemnitee").

                                    RECITALS

         A. It is important to the Company to attract and retain as directors
and officers the most capable persons reasonably available.

         B. Indemnitee is a director and/or officer of the Company.

         C. Both the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increased risk of
litigation and other claims being asserted against directors and officers of
companies in today's environment.

         D. The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
("Certificate of Incorporation") provide that the Company will indemnify its
directors and officers and will advance expenses in connection therewith, and
Indemnitee's willingness to serve as a director and/or officer of the Company is
based in part on Indemnitee's reliance on such provisions.

         E. In recognition of Indemnitee's need for substantial protection
against personal liability in order to enhance Indemnitee's continued service to
the Company in an effective manner, and Indemnitee's reliance on the aforesaid
provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, and to provide Indemnitee with
express contractual indemnification (regardless of, among other things, any
amendment to or revocation of such provisions or any change in the composition
of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") or any acquisition or business
combination transaction relating to the Company), the Company wishes to provide
in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the advancement of Expenses (as
defined in Section 1(c)) to Indemnitee as set forth in this Agreement and, to
the extent insurance is maintained, for the continued coverage of Indemnitee
under the Company's directors' and officers' liability insurance policies.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

         1. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. In addition to terms defined elsewhere herein,
the following terms have the following meanings when used in this Agreement with
initial capital letters:

             (a) "AFFILIATE" has the meaning given to that term in Rule 405
under the Securities Act of 1933; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that for purposes of this
Agreement the Company and its subsidiaries will not be deemed to constitute
Affiliates of Indemnitee.

             (b) "CLAIM" means any threatened, pending or completed action, suit
or proceeding, or any inquiry or investigation, whether instituted, made or
conducted by the Company or any other party, including without limitation any
governmental entity, that Indemnitee determines might lead to the institution of
any such action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative,
arbitrative, investigative or other.

<PAGE>

             (c) "EXPENSES" includes attorneys' and experts' fees, expenses and
charges and all other costs, expenses and obligations paid or incurred in
connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in
(including on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate
in, any Claim.

             (d) "INDEMNIFIABLE LOSSES" means any and all Expenses, damages,
losses, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement
(including without limitation all interest, assessments and other charges paid
or payable in connection with or in respect of any of the foregoing)
(collectively, "Losses") relating to, resulting from or arising out of any act
or failure to act by the Indemnitee, or his or her status as any person referred
to in clause (i) of this sentence, (i) in his or her capacity as a director,
officer, employee or agent of the Company, any of its Affiliates or any other
entity as to which the Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the
Company as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee or agent of
another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other entity or enterprise, whether or not for profit and (ii) in
respect of any business, transaction or other activity of any entity referred to
in clause (i) of this sentence.

         2. BASIC INDEMNIFICATION ARRANGEMENT. The Company will indemnify and
hold harmless Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the
State of Delaware in effect on the date hereof or as such laws may from time to
time hereafter be amended to increase the scope of such permitted
indemnification, against all Indemnifiable Losses relating to, resulting from or
arising out of any Claim. The failure by Indemnitee to notify the Company of
such Claim will not relieve the Company from any liability hereunder unless, and
only to the extent that, the Company did not otherwise learn of the Claim and
such failure results in forfeiture by the Company of substantial defenses,
rights or insurance coverage. Except as provided in Section 17, however,
Indemnitee will not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in
connection with any Claim initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any
director or officer of the Company unless the Company has joined in or consented
to the initiation of such Claim. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company will
advance, within two business days of such request, any and all Expenses to
Indemnitee that Indemnitee determines reasonably likely to be payable; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that Indemnitee will return, without interest, any such advance that
remains unspent at the final conclusion of the Claim to which the advance
related.

         3. INDEMNIFICATION FOR ADDITIONAL EXPENSES. Without limiting the
generality or effect of the foregoing, the Company will indemnify Indemnitee
against, and, if requested by Indemnitee, will within two business days of such
request advance to Indemnitee, any and all attorneys' fees and other Expenses
paid or incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim asserted or brought
by Indemnitee for (i) indemnification or advance payment of Expenses by the
Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or under any provision of
the Company's Bylaws or Certificate of Incorporation now or hereafter in effect
relating to Claims for Indemnifiable Losses and/or (ii) recovery under any
directors' and officers' liability insurance policies maintained by the Company,
regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such
indemnification, advance Expense payment or insurance recovery, as the case may
be.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         4. PARTIAL INDEMNITY, ETC. If Indemnitee is entitled under any
provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a
portion of any Indemnifiable Loss but not for all of the total amount thereof,
the Company will nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to
which Indemnitee is entitled. Moreover, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits
or otherwise in defense of any or all Claims relating in whole or in part to an
Indemnifiable Loss or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including
without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee will be indemnified
against all Expenses incurred in connection therewith. In connection with any
determination as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder,
there will be a presumption that Indemnitee is so entitled, which presumption
the Company may overcome only by its adducing clear and convincing evidence to
the contrary.

         5. NO OTHER PRESUMPTION. For purposes of this Agreement, the
termination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without
court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its
equivalent, will not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any
particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has
determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law.

         6. NON-EXCLUSIVITY, ETC. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder will be in
addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Company's Bylaws or
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, or the substantive laws of the
Company's jurisdiction of incorporation, any other contract or otherwise
(collectively, "Other Indemnity Provisions"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) to the
extent that Indemnitee otherwise would have any greater right to indemnification
under any Other Indemnity Provision, Indemnitee will be deemed to have such
greater right hereunder and (ii) to the extent that any change is made to any
Other Indemnity Provision that permits any greater right to indemnification than
that provided under this Agreement as of the date hereof, Indemnitee will be
deemed to have such greater right hereunder. The Company will not adopt any
amendment to the Company's Bylaws or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
the effect of which would be to deny, diminish or encumber Indemnitee's right to
indemnification under this Agreement or any Other Indemnity Provision.

         7. LIABILITY INSURANCE AND FUNDING. To the extent the Company maintains
an insurance policy or policies providing directors' and officers' liability
insurance, Indemnitee will be covered by such policy or policies, in accordance
with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any
director or officer of the Company. The Company may, but will not be required
to, create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use other means, including
without limitation a letter of credit, to ensure the payment of such amounts as
may be necessary to satisfy its obligations to indemnify and advance expenses
pursuant to this Agreement.

         8. SUBROGATION. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the
Company will be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the related
rights of recovery of Indemnitee against other persons or entities (other than
Indemnitee's successors). The Indemnitee will execute all papers reasonably
required to evidence such rights (all of Indemnitee's reasonable Expenses,
including attorneys' fees and charges, related thereto to be reimbursed by or,
at the option of Indemnitee, advanced by the Company).

                                       3
<PAGE>

         9. NO DUPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. The Company will not be liable under
this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any Indemnifiable Loss
made against Indemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise actually received
payment (net of Expenses incurred in connection therewith) under any insurance
policy, the Company's Bylaws or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and
Other Indemnity Provisions or otherwise of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable
hereunder.

         10. DEFENSE OF CLAIMS. The Company will be entitled to participate in
the defense of any Claim or to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, provided that in the event that (i)
the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present
such counsel with an actual or potential conflict, (ii) the named parties in any
such Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and
Indemnitee and Indemnitee shall conclude that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to him or her that are different from or in addition to those
available to the Company, or (iii) any such representation by the Company would
be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then
prevailing, then Indemnitee will be entitled to retain separate counsel (but not
more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any
particular Claim) at the Company's expense. The Company will not, without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any threatened
or pending Claim that the Indemnitee is or could have been a party unless such
settlement solely involves the payment of money and includes an unconditional
release of the Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject
matter of such Claim.

         11. SUCCESSORS AND BINDING AGREEMENT. (a) The Company will require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation,
reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or
assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
Indemnitee and his or her counsel, expressly to assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be
required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement will
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the
Company, including without limitation any person acquiring directly or
indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company
whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and
such successor will thereafter be deemed the "Company" for purposes of this
Agreement), but will not otherwise be assignable or delegatable by the Company.

             (b) This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by the Indemnitee's personal or legal representatives, executors,
administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, legatees and other successors.

             (c) This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties
hereto will, without the consent of the other, assign or delegate this Agreement
or any rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in Sections
11(a) and 11(b). Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing,
Indemnitee's right to receive payments hereunder will not be assignable, whether
by pledge, creation of a security interest or otherwise, other than by a
transfer by the Indemnitee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
and, in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this
Section 11(c), the Company will have no liability to pay any amount so attempted
to be assigned or transferred.

         12. NOTICES. For all purposes of this Agreement, all communications,
including without limitation notices, consents, requests or approvals, required

been duly given when hand delivered or dispatched by electronic facsimile
transmission (with receipt thereof orally confirmed), or five business days
after having been mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid or one business day after having been sent
for next-day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight courier service,
addressed to the Company (to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company) and to the Indemnitee at the addresses shown on the signature page
hereto, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in
writing and in accordance herewith, except that notices of changes of address
will be effective only upon receipt.

         13. GOVERNING LAW. The validity, interpretation, construction and
performance of this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance
with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the
principles of conflict of laws of such State. Each party consents to
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Delaware state or federal court or any court
in any other jurisdiction in which a Claim is commenced by a third person for
purposes of any action, suit or proceeding hereunder, waives any objection to
venue therein or any defense based on forum non conveniens or similar theories
and agrees that service of process may be effected in any such action, suit or
proceeding by notice given in accordance with Section 12.

         14. VALIDITY. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of
any provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid,
unenforceable or otherwise illegal, the remainder of this Agreement and the
application of such provision to any other person or circumstance will not be
affected, and the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise
illegal will be reformed to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to
make it enforceable, valid or legal.

         15. MISCELLANEOUS. No provision of this Agreement may be waived,
modified or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed
to in writing signed by Indemnitee and the Company. No waiver by either party
hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto or compliance with
any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party
will be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the
same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral
or otherwise, expressed or implied with respect to the subject matter hereof
have been made by either party that are not set forth expressly in this
Agreement. References to Sections are to references to Sections of this
Agreement.

         16. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which
together will constitute one and the same agreement.

         17. LEGAL FEES AND EXPENSES. It is the intent of the Company that the
Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees and or other Expenses associated
with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee's rights under
this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof
would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the
Indemnitee hereunder. Accordingly, without limiting the generality or effect of

                                       5
<PAGE>

any other provision hereof, if it should appear to the Indemnitee that the
Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or
in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any
action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any
litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from,
the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the
Indemnitee hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes the Indemnitee from
time to time to retain counsel of Indemnitee's choice, at the expense of the
Company as hereafter provided, to advise and represent the Indemnitee in
connection with any such interpretation, enforcement or defense, including
without limitation the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal
action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder
or other person affiliated with the Company, in any jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding any existing or prior attorney-client relationship between the
Company and such counsel, the Company irrevocably consents to the Indemnitee's
entering into an attorney-client relationship with such counsel, and in that
connection the Company and the Indemnitee agree that a confidential relationship
shall exist between the Indemnitee and such counsel. Without respect to whether
the Indemnitee prevails, in whole or in part, in connection with any of the
foregoing, the Company will pay and be solely financially responsible for any
and all attorneys' and related fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in
connection with any of the foregoing.

         18. CERTAIN INTERPRETIVE MATTERS. No provision of this Agreement will
be interpreted in favor of, or against, either of the parties hereto by reason
of the extent to which any such party or its counsel participated in the
drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is
inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Indemnitee has executed and the Company has caused
its duly authorized representative to execute this Agreement as of the date
first above written.

2.       LOANS: GENERAL TERMS

         2.1. REVOLVING CREDIT; REVOLVING NOTE.

         (A) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the
Closing Date Bank will make available to Borrower a revolving credit facility
(the "Revolving Credit Facility") under which Bank shall, from time to time,
upon written or oral (confirmed promptly in writing) request of Borrower
therefor, advance loans to Borrower (each a "Revolving Loan" and, collectively,
the "Revolving Loans") in the maximum aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding of not more than an amount equal to the Maximum Revolving Credit,
MINUS the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding;
provided that Borrower shall bear all risk of error in respect of oral requests
for Revolving Loans. Borrower's requests for Revolving Loans shall be delivered
to Bank as provided in Section 2.4, below; and, unless otherwise requested by
Borrower in writing (and approved by Bank), all Revolving Loans shall be
advanced into a demand deposit account maintained by Borrower at (as specified
by a writing between Bank and Borrower) Bank or an Affiliate of Bank. Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may, during the term of the
Revolving Credit Facility, repay and reborrow the Revolving Loans advanced
thereunder. All advances of Revolving Loans shall be repayable as provided in
Section 2.5 and shall be used by Borrower as provided in Section 7.5.

         (B) Borrower's Debt under the Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a
promissory note executed and delivered by Borrower to evidence the Revolving
Loans (the "Revolving Note", which term, for the purposes of this Agreement and
the Other Agreements, shall include any and all amendments, modifications,
replacements, supplements and substitutions thereof), which shall be in the form
of Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.

         (C) Bank may, in its sole discretion (but exercised subject to the
terms of the immediately succeeding sentence), at any time or times hereafter,
increase or decrease the percentage of its advances pursuant to the definition
of the Borrowing Base against Eligible Accounts and/or

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

Eligible Inventory, with any such increase or decrease (subject to the 10 day
period provided below in this paragraph) automatically amending the definition
of Borrowing Base set forth in Article 1 to reflect such change. Bank agrees
that any such decrease of the percentage of advances against Eligible Accounts
or Eligible Inventory shall be based upon there having occurred some adverse
change in the quality of the Collateral, in Borrower's business or financial
condition or in Borrower's industry generally or some other event or condition
which Bank reasonably believes has increased, or is reasonably likely to
increase, the risk to Bank hereunder; and any such determination by Bank that
such a change, event or condition has occurred shall be conclusive and binding
absent bad faith. If such percentage is decreased said decrease shall become
effective ten (10) days following Bank's notice of such decrease to Borrower for
the purpose of calculating new advances hereunder.

         (D) The Revolving Credit Facility shall have an initial term commencing
on the Closing Date and terminating on July 31, 2003 (as such date may be (i)
extended pursuant to a writing executed by Borrower and Bank, in Bank's sole and
absolute discretion, or (ii) pursuant to Section 8.2, below, accelerated, the
"Revolving Facility Termination Date").

         2.2 TERMINATION FEE. If requests that the Revolving Credit Facility is
terminated (whether at the request of Borrower or pursuant to Section 8.2,
below) before July 31, 2003, Borrower shall pay to Bank an early termination fee
in the amount of $150,000; provided that no such fee shall be payable if the
Revolving Loans are repaid with the proceeds of loans advanced by another
department or working group of Bank or with the proceeds of a public offering of
Borrower's Stock.

         2.3. SECURITY; GUARANTY. The payment of the Bank Debt, including,
without limitation, the Revolving Loans, shall be secured by Liens in favor of
Bank in the Collateral, and the Bank Debt shall be guaranteed by Ellis Yan
("Yan") pursuant to the Guaranty (subject to the limitation on amount set forth
in the Guaranty.

         2.4 INTEREST RATES. (A) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Revolving Loans shall bear interest at, as to Prime Rate
Advances, the Prime Commercial Rate from time to time in effect, and, as to
LIBOR Advances, at the LIBOR Based Rate for the LIBOR Interest Period applicable
to such Advance; provided, however, that there shall not be outstanding at any
time more than three (3) LIBOR Advances under the Revolving Loans.

         (B) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrower may
have Revolving Loans advanced as LIBOR Advances or Prime Rate Advances and may
cause a Rate Conversion or Rate Continuation in respect of Advances then
outstanding into Prime Rate Advances or LIBOR Advances, all upon Borrower's
request in form prescribed by Bank (each a "Borrowing Request" or a "Rate
Conversion/Continuation Request," as applicable) delivered by Borrower to Bank
not later than 12:00 noon (Akron, Ohio time) on, as applicable, (i) the Banking
Day upon which Borrower (A) desires a Prime Rate Advance or (B) desires to
convert a LIBOR Advance into a Prime Rate Advance, or (ii) the day that is two
(2) Banking Days prior to the Banking Day upon which Borrower (A) desires a
LIBOR Advance, (B) desires to convert a Prime Rate Advance into a LIBOR Advance,
(C) desires to convert a LIBOR Advance into a LIBOR Advance having a LIBOR
Interest Period of a different duration, or (D) desires to continue a

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

LIBOR Advance as a LIBOR Advance having a LIBOR Interest Period of the same
duration; provided, however, that the principal amount of any LIBOR Advance so
requested shall not be less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and shall be
in an integral multiple of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000); and, provided,
further, however, that the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all LIBOR
advances outstanding at any time shall not exceed Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000). Unless otherwise specified and provided for by Borrower pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement, the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving
Loans shall consist of Prime Rate Advances.

         (C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Possible
Default or an Event of Default shall exist on the proposed date of conversion or
continuation, no Advance shall be converted into or continued as a LIBOR
Advance; and any then-expiring LIBOR Advance shall be converted to a Prime Rate
Advance. In addition, each Rate Conversion or Rate Continuation shall be subject
to the following:

         (i) each Rate Conversion or Rate Continuation shall be effected by
         Bank's applying the proceeds of the Advance resulting from such Rate
         Conversion or Rate Continuation to the Advance being converted or
         continued, as the case may be; and the accrued interest on any LIBOR
         Advance (or portion thereof) being converted or continued shall be paid
         to Bank by Borrower at the time of such Rate Conversion or Rate
         Continuation;

         (ii) a LIBOR Advance may not be converted or continued at a time other
         than the end of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto unless
         Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any Prepayment Compensation due to
         Bank pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof;

         (iii) no LIBOR Interest Period may end on a date later than the
         Revolving Credit Termination Date;

         (iv) if there is no such numerically corresponding day in the month
         that is such, as the case may be, first or third month after the
         commencement of a LIBOR Interest Period, such LIBOR Interest Period
         shall end on the last day of such month; and

         (vi) whenever the last day of any LIBOR Interest Period in respect of a
         LIBOR Advance would otherwise occur on a day other than a Banking Day,
         the last day of such LIBOR Interest Period shall be extended to occur
         on the next succeeding Banking Day; provided, however, that if such
         extension would cause the last day of such Interest Period to occur in
         the next following calendar month, the last day of such Interest Period
         shall occur on the immediately preceding Banking Day.

If Borrower fails to give any Rate Conversion/Continuation Request in a timely
fashion, or if any other condition to a LIBOR Advance is not satisfied, any
LIBOR Advance shall, at the end of its LIBOR Interest Period, be converted into
a Prime Rate Advance.

         (D) Borrower may give a Borrowing Request or a Rate
Conversion/Continuation Request telephonically, provided that Borrower shall
also deliver written confirmation thereof to Bank by 12:00 noon (Akron, Ohio
time) on the same day such telephonic Borrowing Request or

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

Rate Conversion/Continuation Request is given. The Bank may rely on such
telephonic Borrowing Request or Rate Conversion/Continuation Request to the same
extent that Bank may rely on a written Borrowing Request or Rate
Conversion/Continuation Request . Each Borrowing Request and Rate
Conversion/Continuation Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.
Borrower shall bear all risks related to the giving of a Borrowing Request or a
Rate Conversion/Continuation Request telephonically or by such other method of
transmission as Borrower shall elect.

                  the LIBO Page on such service, or such other service and page
                  as Bank may determine to be equivalent to such page on the

                  thereafter, but subject to the terms and conditions of this
                  Agreement, including, without limitation, the limitations set
                  forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 3.3.

                  "PRIME COMMERCIAL RATE" shall mean the rate of interest
                  established by Bank from time to time as its "prime commercial
                  rate" (or equivalent rate otherwise named) based on its
                  consideration of economic, money market, business and
                  competitive factors, which rate of interest is not necessarily
                  Bank's most favored rate.

                  "PRIME RATE ADVANCES" shall mean those Advances described in
                  this Section 2.4 on which Borrower shall pay interest at the

                  "RATE CONTINUATION" shall mean a continuation of a LIBOR
                  Advance as a successive LIBOR Advance having a LIBOR Interest
                  Period of the same duration.

                  Type into an Advance of another Type or of a LIBOR Advance

                  the interpretation or administration thereof.

                  "RESERVE PERCENTAGE" shall mean, for any day, that percentage
                  (expressed as a decimal) which is in effect on such day, as

                  System (or any successor) for determining the maximum reserve
                  requirement (including, without limitation, all basic,
                  supplemental, marginal and other reserves and taking into
                  account any transitional adjustments or other scheduled
                  changes in reserve requirements) for a member bank of the

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

                  Federal Reserve System in Cleveland, Ohio, in respect of
                  Eurocurrency Liabilities.

                  "TYPE" shall mean, when used in respect of any Advance under a
                  Loan, LIBOR Based or Prime Rate, as applicable to such Advance
                  and such Loan.

         (F) Interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 360-day year
(that is, computed by obtaining a daily interest factor at the applicable rate
based upon a 360-day year and multiplying such factor by the actual number of
days elapsed). Subject to any maximum interest rate limitation specified by
applicable law, the Prime Commercial Rate shall change automatically without
notice to Borrower with each change therein. In no contingency or event
whatsoever shall the interest rate charged pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any law which a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto.
In the event that such a court determines that Bank has received interest
hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, Bank shall promptly refund
such excess interest to Borrower; and Borrower hereby agrees that the refund of
such excess shall be Borrower's sole remedy or claim, at law and in equity, in
respect of Bank's charging or receipt of interest in excess of that permitted by
law.

         2.5. PAYMENTS. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.10, all
payments to Bank shall be payable at Bank's address set forth above or at such
other place or places as Bank may designate from time to time in writing to
Borrower. Subject always to the provisions of Article 8, the Bank Debt shall be
payable as follows:

         (A) Interest payable pursuant to this Agreement shall, as to Prime Rate
Advances, be due on the first day of each month (for the immediately preceding
month) and, as to LIBOR Advances, on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto; or, at Bank's option, the amount of interest shall be added
to the principal balance of the Revolving Note and be deemed an additional
Revolving Loan thereunder; provided, however, that, in addition, all accrued and
unpaid interest not theretofore paid shall be due and payable at maturity,
whether by acceleration or otherwise;

         (B) Costs, fees and expenses payable pursuant to this Agreement shall
be payable as and when provided in this Agreement and, if not specified, then on
demand;

         (C) From and after the Closing Date, principal payable on account of
Revolving Loans shall be due and payable to the extent and on the date of any
collections received with respect to any Proceeds of the Collateral and not
applied to interest, and the entire unpaid principal balance of all Revolving
Loans shall be payable in full on the Revolving Facility Termination Date; and

         (D) The balance of the Bank Debt, if any, shall be payable as and when
provided in this Agreement or the Other Agreements and, if not specified, then
on demand.

Bank shall provide Borrower with a statement of account relating to the
Revolving Loans and, at its option, any other Bank Debt, on a monthly basis,
which statement of account shall be presumed correct and accurate and shall,
except for Bank's right to reapply payments, constitute

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

an account stated between Borrower and Bank, unless thereafter waived in writing
by Bank or unless, within thirty (30) days after Bank's mailing thereof,
Borrower delivers to Bank, by registered or certified mail, written objection
thereto specifying the error or errors, if any, contained therein. Whenever any
payment to be made hereunder, including without limitation any payment to be
made on the Revolving Note, shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a
Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day and
such extension of time shall in each case be included in the computation of the
interest payable on such Revolving Note. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank,
automatically and without further instruction from Borrower, to withdraw from
and charge any demand deposit or other account of Borrower maintained at Bank to
pay to Bank any principal, interest or other Bank Debt on the date on which the
same are due and payable, whether at stated maturity or acceleration.

         2.6. LATE CHARGE. If Borrower fails to pay any amount due under the
Revolving Note, this Agreement, or any fee in connection herewith, in full
within ten (10) days after its due date, Bank shall have the right to assess, in
addition to its remedies under Article 8 hereof, and Borrower shall incur and
shall pay to Bank or demand, in each such case, a late payment processing fee
equal to the greater of Fifty Dollars ($50) or an amount equal to five percent
(5%) of such unpaid amount (up to a maximum of $1,500 per late charge). The
payment of a late charge will not cure or constitute a waiver of any Possible
Default or Event of Default under this Agreement.

         2.7. BANK AUDITS. Borrower shall reimburse Bank for costs incurred in
connection with Bank's monitoring, auditing and other review of Collateral and
Borrower's financial records (which shall be done solely for the benefit of Bank
and shall not be relied upon by Borrower or any other Person) during which
auditor(s) of Bank are performing such monitoring, auditing and other review at
a site other than Bank's premises, plus reasonable travel and other
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank or such auditor in connection with such
monitoring, auditing and other review (at present estimated not to exceed $2,500
per audit); provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default then exists,
Bank will not require Borrower to reimburse Bank for more than three (3) such
audits in any twelve month period.

         2.8. FACILITY FEE. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Bank a
facility fee in the amount of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000), which shall be
deemed fully earned on the Closing Date; provided that the good-faith deposit
previously delivered by Borrower to Bank shall, at Borrower's request, be
applied to satisfy this payment.

         2.9 UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank, in arrears,
on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 during the term of the
Revolving Credit Facility, commencing October 1, 2001, and on the Revolving
Facility Termination Date, an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to
one-eighth percent (0.125%) per annum, calculated daily on the basis of a
360-day year (that is, computed by obtaining a daily factor at such per annum
rate based upon a 360-day year and multiplying such factor by the actual number
of days elapsed), payable in arrears, of the average daily unused portion of the
Revolving Credit Facility, determined on a daily basis, during the immediately
preceding three (3) calendar month period (or, as to the fee due on the
Revolving Facility Termination Date, portion thereof). The "unused portion of
the Revolving Credit Facility" shall mean, as to any day, an amount equal to

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

$15,000,000, MINUS the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Loans at the close of business or end of such day.

         2.10. ALL ADVANCES TO CONSTITUTE ONE DEBT; SAME DEBT. All Revolving
Loans and other advances of credit by Bank to or for the benefit of Borrower
under this Agreement and the Other Agreements shall constitute one Debt, and all
Debt and obligations of Borrower to Bank under this Agreement and all Other
Agreements shall constitute one general obligation, secured by Bank's Lien in
the Collateral, and by other Liens heretofore, now, or at any time or times
hereafter granted to Bank by Borrower or others. Borrower agrees that all of the
rights of Bank set forth in this Agreement shall apply to any modification of or
supplement to this Agreement and the Other Agreements, unless such rights are
expressly modified by any such modification or supplement.

         2.11. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE LIBOR BASED RATE.

         (A) In the event that on any date on which Borrower requests an Advance
hereunder Bank reasonably determines that by reason of (1) any change arising
after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank eurocurrency market or
affecting the position of Bank with respect to such market, adequate and fair
means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference
to which the LIBOR then being determined is to be determined, (2) any change
arising after the date of this Agreement in any applicable law or governmental
rule, regulation or order (or any interpretation thereof, including the
introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation or order), or (3)
any other circumstance affecting Bank or the interbank market (such as, but not
limited to, official reserve requirements required by Regulation D of the Board
of Governors of the Federal reserve System), the LIBOR Based Rate shall not
represent the effective pricing to Bank of making Advances, then, and in any
such event, Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower and the ability
of Borrower to request LIBOR Advances shall be suspended until Bank shall notify
Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and,
beginning on the date of such suspension, and prior to maturity, interest shall
accrue on all such Advances at the Prime Commercial Rate.

         (B) In the event that on any date Bank shall have reasonably determined
that the making or continuation of LIBOR Advances has become unlawful by
compliance by Bank in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation or
order, then, and in any such event, Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to
Borrower. In such case, the ability of Borrower to request LIBOR Advances
hereunder shall be terminated and, when required by law or, if permitted by law,
and prior to maturity, interest shall accrue on all such Advances at the Prime
Commercial Rate.

         (C) If, due to (1) the introduction of or any change in the
interpretation of any law or regulation, (2) the compliance with any guideline
or request from any central bank or other public authority (whether or not
having the force of law), or (3) the failure of Borrower to repay any Advance
when required by the terms of this Agreement, there shall be any loss or
increase in the cost to Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any Advance, then Borrower agrees that Borrower shall, from time to
time, upon demand by Bank, pay to Bank additional amounts sufficient to
compensate Bank for such loss or increased cost. A certificate

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

as to the amount of such loss or increase cost, submitted to Borrower by Bank,
shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the correctness of such amount.

         (D) In any case of prepayment, voluntary or involuntary (including,
without limitation, any conversion to the Prime Commercial Rate required by this
Section), of all or any portion of any of the Revolving Loans which consists of
a LIBOR Advance, Borrower agrees that, to the extent, if any, that LIBOR at the
time of such prepayment is lower than LIBOR which is applicable to the LIBOR
Interest Period during which such prepayment is made, Borrower shall pay to Bank
(i) all interest accrued on the portion so prepaid and (ii) an amount
("Prepayment Compensation") equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the net present
value of the principal and interest payments due on such portion being prepaid,
discounted at a rate which is equal to LIBOR as of the date of prepayment, over
(b) the amount of such portion being prepaid.

         (E) Without prejudice to any other provisions of this Agreement,
Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Bank against any loss or expense which Bank
may sustain or incur as a consequence of any default by Borrower in payment when
due of any amount due hereunder in respect of any LIBOR Advance(s), including,
but not limited to, any loss of profit, premium or penalty incurred by Bank in
respect of funds borrowed by it for the purpose of making or maintaining such
LIBOR Advance(s), as determined by Bank in the exercise of its sole but
reasonable discretion. A certificate as to any such loss or expense shall be
promptly submitted by Bank to Borrower and shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive and binding as to the amount thereof.

         2.12 LETTERS OF CREDIT.

         (A) DISCRETIONARY FACILITY. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Bank may, in its sole discretion, at the request of Borrower, issue
in favor of Persons designated by Borrower letters of credit (each a "Letter of
Credit" and collectively the "Letters of Credit") upon such terms (including,
without limitation, the execution and delivery by Borrower of such applications,
reimbursement agreements, notes and other instruments as Bank may require) and
in such form and substance as are satisfactory to Bank; provided, however, that
at no time shall the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit issued and
outstanding pursuant to this Section 2.12 exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00). For purposes of determining additional credit, if any, available
to Borrower under the Maximum Revolving Credit, the issuance of a Letter of
Credit by Bank shall be deemed to be an advance of a Revolving Loan in the face
amount of the Letter of Credit for so long as such Letter of Credit is in force,
it being the intent of the parties hereby that at no time shall the aggregate
amount of Revolving Loans then unpaid, PLUS the aggregate face amount of Letters
of Credit then outstanding, exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit.

         (B) LETTER OF CREDIT FEES. In consideration of Bank's issuance of each
standby Letter of Credit hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee equal to
one percent (1%) per annum (for the term of the Letter of Credit to which it
applies) of the face amount of the Letter of Credit to which it applies. In
consideration of Bank's issuance of each documentary or commercial Letter of
Credit hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Bank such fees as are then being charged
by Bank for similar letters of credit to similar account parties (with each of
the fees provided for under this

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

sentence and under the preceding sentence being the "Letter of Credit Fee"). The
Letter of Credit Fee in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be paid by
Borrower on such date or dates as Bank shall determine in its sole discretion at
the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby authorizes
Bank, automatically and without further instruction from Borrower, to withdraw
from and charge any demand deposit or other account of Borrower maintained at
Bank to pay to Bank any Letter of Credit Fee on the date the same is due and
payable, or Bank may, at its option, advance a Revolving Loan to Borrower in the
amount necessary to pay such Letter of Credit Fee and the amount so advanced
shall be added to the principal balance of the Revolving Note.

         (B) REIMBURSEMENT. In the event that Bank pays any amount under any
Letter of Credit, Borrower shall immediately reimburse Bank for the amount so
paid. The Borrower hereby authorizes Bank, automatically and without further
instruction from Borrower, to withdraw from and charge any demand deposit or
other account of Borrower maintained at Bank to reimburse Bank for any payment
made on a Letter of Credit, or Bank may, at its option, advance a Revolving Loan
to Borrower in the amount necessary to reimburse Bank for the amount paid under
any Letter of Credit and the amount so advanced shall be added to the principal
balance of the Revolving Note.

4.       ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS

         4.1. ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS. Upon delivery to Bank of a report of Accounts
(as provided in Section 5.6), Bank shall make a determination, in its sole
discretion, as to which Accounts listed thereon shall be deemed an "Eligible
Account".

         In determining which Accounts will be "Eligible Accounts", Bank may,
INTER ALIA, consider the following requirements:

         The Account is subject to a perfected first priority Lien in favor of
Bank and is due no more than thirty (30) days from the date of invoice under the
original terms of shipment or service, arises from the delivery of goods or
performance of services by Borrower in the ordinary course of its business,
conforms to the warranties and representations set forth in Section 6.2 and:

         (A) is an Account upon which Borrower's right to receive payment is
absolute and not contingent upon any further performance or delivery or the
fulfillment of any condition whatsoever (e.g., consignment or guaranteed sale)
and does not include any sales or other taxes, and Borrower has possession of,
or has delivered or will deliver as required hereunder to Bank, copies of
invoices, shipping and delivery receipts evidencing such performance or
shipment;

         (B) is unpaid for not more than ninety (90) days following the date of
invoice;

         (C) does not arise from a sale or sales to an Affiliate or from a
consumer transaction (being one for primarily personal, family or household
purposes);

         (D) is not the obligation of an Account Debtor located in a foreign
country other than Canada, except those foreign Accounts supported by a letter
of credit acceptable to Bank which letter of credit is confirmed or issued by a
United States bank or other bank acceptable to Bank or is an Eligible Account
insured by the Foreign Credit Insurance Association, provided that the letter of
credit or insurance in respect of such foreign Accounts is assigned to Bank by
assignments in form and substance satisfactory to Bank;

         (E) does not arise from a contract containing a prohibition against the
assignment or grant of a security interest therein;

         (F) is not an Account from the United States of America or any agency
thereof, unless Bank is satisfied that its security interest in such Account has
been perfected pursuant to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act;

         (G) is not an Account of an Account Debtor who has suspended business,
made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, committed any act of
insolvency, filed or has had filed

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

against it any petition under any bankruptcy law or any other law or laws for
the relief of debtors;

         (H) is not evidenced by an instrument, chattel paper or other written
agreement (other than invoices), unless the Instrument or Chattel Paper
evidencing the Account has been delivered to and endorsed in favor of Bank;

         (I) does not, when added to any and all other Accounts of the Account
Debtor with Borrower, produce an aggregate indebtedness from the Account Debtor
of more than (i) as to Home Depot, thirty percent (30%) of the total of all of
Borrower's Eligible Accounts (subject to Borrower's obtaining and maintaining
credit insurance in respect of Accounts owing by Home Depot satisfactory to
Bank), and (ii) as to all other Account Debtors, that percentage of the total of
all of Borrower's Eligible Accounts as Bank may determine from time to time as
to each such Account Debtor;

         (J) is not an Account of an Account Debtor who shall have objected to
paying such Account, or any portion thereof, as a result of an objection to the
quality or quantity of goods or services provided by Borrower, or shall have
rejected, returned or refused to accept such goods or services;

         (K) is not an Account of an Account Debtor which has twenty-five
percent (25%) or more of its Accounts to Borrower unpaid more than ninety (90)
days following the invoice date; and

         (L) is not an Account which is, in Bank's good faith judgment, (i) the

unacceptable to Bank.

         4.2. ELIGIBLE INVENTORY. Upon delivery to Bank of a report of Inventory
(as provided in Section 5.8 below), Bank shall determine, in its sole
discretion, which Inventory listed thereon is "Eligible Inventory". In making
this determination, Bank may consider, INTER ALIA, the following requirements:

         The Inventory is subject to a perfected first priority Lien in favor of
Bank and consists solely of finished goods and:

         (A) The Inventory has not been returned to Borrower and is in good
condition, meets all standards imposed by any governmental agency, or department
or division thereof, having regulatory authority over such goods, their use
and/or sale and is either currently usable or currently saleable in the normal
course of Borrower's business and is not otherwise unacceptable to Bank due to
age, type, category and/or quantity;

         (B) The Inventory is located at one of the locations listed on Schedule
6.1(E) attached hereto;

         (C) The Inventory is not subject to any consignment or similar
arrangement; and

                                      -22-
<PAGE>

         (D) Each of the warranties and representations set forth in Section 6.3
of this Agreement has been reaffirmed with respect thereto at the time the most
recent report of Inventory was delivered to Bank.

5.       COLLATERAL: GENERAL TERMS

         5.1. SECURITY INTEREST.

         (A) To secure the prompt payment to Bank and performance of the Bank
Debt, Borrower hereby grants to Bank a continuing security interest in and to
all of the following property and interests in property of Borrower, whether
now owned or existing, hereafter acquired or arising, or in which Borrower now
or hereafter has any rights, and wheresoever located:

         (i)      All Accounts and other Receivables, Instruments, Documents,
                  Chattel Paper, Investment Property, deposit accounts and
                  General Intangibles;

         (ii)     All Equipment;

         (iii)    All Inventory;

         (iv)     All licenses, franchises, permits, rights, orders, variances,
                  and authorizations issued by any governmental agency or other
                  authority;

         (v)      All letter-of-credit rights and letters of credit;

         (vi)     All commercial tort claims;

         (vii)    All monies, residues and property of any kind, now or at any
                  time or times hereafter, in the possession or under control of
                  Bank or a bailee of Bank;

         (viii)   All accessions to, substitutions for and all replacements,
                  Products and Proceeds of the foregoing, including, without
                  limitation, proceeds of insurance policies insuring the
                  Collateral; and

         (ix)     All books and records (including, without limitation, customer
                  lists, credit files, computer programs, print-outs and other
                  computer materials and records) of Borrower pertaining to any
                  of the foregoing.

         5.2. SPECIAL COLLATERAL. Immediately upon Borrower's receipt of that
portion of the Collateral which is or becomes evidenced by an agreement,
instrument and/or document, including, without limitation, promissory notes,

appropriate endorsements and/or other specific evidence (in form and substance
acceptable to Bank) of assignment thereof to Bank.

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

         5.3. FURTHER ASSURANCES. At Bank's request, Borrower shall execute
and/or deliver to Bank, at any time hereafter, all financing statements,
Supplemental Documentation and other writings to cause or confirm the attachment
and perfection of the liens and security interests contemplated hereby that Bank
may reasonably request, in form and substance acceptable to Bank, and pay the
costs of any recording or filing of the same. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Borrower shall execute and deliver for filing a mortgage in favor
of Bank, and satisfactory to Bank in form and substance, simultaneously with
Borrower's acquisition of any interest in real property (other than leaseholds
for office space and other leaseholds not deemed by Bank to be material), which
mortgage shall be accompanied by such title insurance, environmental site
assessment, survey and other information as Bank shall request. Borrower agrees
that a carbon, photographic, or other reproduction of a financing statement, is
sufficient as a financing statement. Borrower immediately on demand therefor by
Bank, shall deliver to Bank evidence of ownership, if any, of any of the
Collateral.

         5.4. PRESERVATION OF COLLATERAL. Borrower will keep the Collateral and
all rights with respect thereto and proceeds of both free from any adverse Lien,
except for Permitted Encumbrances, and, subject to ordinary wear and tear and
obsolescence, will use reasonable efforts to keep all tangible Collateral in
good condition, and will not waste or destroy any of the same other than in the
ordinary cause of Borrower's business. Borrower will not use the Collateral in
violation of any applicable statute or ordinance.

         5.5.  VERIFICATION OF COLLATERAL; INSPECTIONS; AUDIT.

         (A) Any of Bank's officers, employees or agents shall have the right,
at any time or times hereafter, in Bank's name or in the name of Borrower to
verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Collateral by
mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise.

         (B) Bank (by any of its officers, employees and/or agents) shall have
the right, at any time or times during usual business hours, and, so long as no
Event of Default then exists, upon reasonable notice to Borrower, to inspect the
Collateral, all records related thereto (and to make extracts from such records)
and the premises upon which any of the Collateral is located, to discuss
Borrower's affairs and finances with any attorney, accountant, Account Debtor or
creditor of Borrower and to verify the amount, quality, quantity, value and
condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral.

         5.6. ASSIGNMENTS; RECORDS AND REPORTS OF ACCOUNTS. Borrower shall keep
accurate and complete records of its Accounts and, on the date specified in
Section 7.1(B)(iv) below (and upon earlier demand by Bank), Borrower shall
deliver to Bank, in form and substance acceptable to Bank, a detailed aged trial
balance of all then existing Accounts specifying the names, face value and dates
of invoice(s) for each Account Debtor obligated on an Account so listed and,
upon demand by Bank, the original copy of all documents, including, without
limitation, repayment histories and present status reports, relating to the
Accounts so scheduled and such other matters and information relating to the
status of the Accounts as Bank shall in its discretion request.

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

         5.7. FEDERAL ACCOUNTS. Upon Bank's request, Borrower shall, if any
Accounts arise out of contracts with the United States of America or any
department, agency or instrumentality thereof, immediately notify Bank thereof
in writing and execute any and all instruments and take all steps required by
Bank in order that all monies due and to become due under such contract shall be
assigned to Bank and notice thereof given to the Government under the Federal
Assignment of Claims Act, as amended.

         5.8. REPORT OF INVENTORY: Borrower shall at all reasonable times and
from time to time, and, so long as no Event of Default then exists, upon
reasonable notice to Borrower, allow Bank, by or through any of its officers,
agents, attorneys or accountants, to examine or inspect the Inventory and all
records concerning the same wherever located and shall furnish to Bank such
reports on a monthly basis as specified in Section 7.1(B)(iv) (or other interval
as Bank shall request) concerning the value and other matters for the Inventory.

         5.9. RETURNS OF INVENTORY. If at any time prior to the occurrence of an
Event of Default Borrower accepts a return of Inventory from an Account Debtor
having a value in excess of $50,000 in any one instance (or related series of
instances), Borrower shall deliver to Bank a copy of any credit memorandum
issued to such Account Debtor.

         5.10. COLLECTIONS; NOTICE OF ASSIGNMENT; LOCK-BOX.

         (A) Subject to paragraph (D), below, so long as Bank does not request
that the Account Debtors on the Accounts be notified of the assignment thereof
to Bank, Borrower may make collections on the Accounts, and hold the proceeds
for Bank in the exact form in which they are received from collections in trust
for Bank, and turn over such proceeds to Bank (or at Bank's instruction to the
depository bank maintaining the lockbox arrangement pursuant to the Lockbox
Agreement) in the exact form in which they are received, together with
endorsements in favor of Bank (or, as the case may be such depository bank) and
a collection report in a form acceptable to Bank. Said proceeds shall be
deposited with Bank (or, as the case may be such depository bank) in a
collections account(s) (the "Cash Collateral Account") maintained with Bank (or,
as the case may be such depository bank) over which Bank alone shall have power
of withdrawal. Bank may in its discretion at least once a Banking Day apply the
whole or any part of the funds on deposit in such collections account(s) against
the principal and/or interest of any Revolving Loans or any other Bank Debt
which are then due, and any portion of said funds on deposit in the Cash
Collateral Account which Bank elects not to apply to such Bank Debt shall be
paid over and deposited by Bank to Borrower's commercial account, provided,
however, that no such transfer from the Cash Collateral Account will be made of
funds deposited in the collections account(s) less than one (1) Banking Day
before the date of such transfer. Interest will be charged by Bank to Borrower
on the amount of proceeds of collections of Accounts applied to reduce the
outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans for the period between when
such application is made to the time when Bank receives good funds in respect of
such collections (based on averages or such other reasonable method as Bank
shall determine).

         (B) Bank may at any time after and during the continuance of an Event
of Default notify Account Debtors on any Accounts that the Accounts have been
assigned to Bank and shall be paid to Bank. Upon request of Bank at any time,
Borrower will so notify such Account Debtors

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

and will indicate on all billings to such Account Debtors that the Accounts are
payable to Bank. Bank is hereby authorized to make any endorsement on any
collection on Borrower's behalf.

         (C) To evidence Bank's rights hereunder, Borrower will upon request of
Bank after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, assign or endorse
the Accounts or proceeds thereof to Bank as Bank may request. After and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank shall have full power to collect,
compromise, endorse, sell or otherwise deal with the Accounts or proceeds
thereof in its own name or that of Borrower. The cost of collection and
enforcement of Accounts, or any instrument belonging to Borrower for goods sold
or services rendered, including attorneys' fees and out-of-pocket expenses,
shall be borne solely by Borrower, whether the same are incurred by Bank or
Borrower.

         (D) Borrower shall cause all Accounts to be collected through a
lock-box arrangement with Bank One, N.A. or another Affiliate of Bank pursuant
to the lock-box agreement of even date herewith in the form of Exhibit F hereto
(as hereafter amended with Bank's consent, the "Lock-box Agreement"); provided,
however, that notwithstanding the terms of the Lock-box Agreement, collections
of Accounts and other sums deposited into the lock-box shall not be deposited
into any account other that the Cash Collateral Account, and the bank party to
the Lock-box Agreement shall acknowledge, in a writing satisfactory to Bank,
Bank's interest in all items deposited in such lock-box, its agreement to hold
same as agent for Bank and to disburse the proceeds thereof only into the Cash
Collateral Account. In the event Borrower shall default on its obligation to
have Accounts collected through a lock-box arrangement, Bank may forthwith
notify all or any Account Debtors of the security interest granted to Bank and
request said Account Debtors to send all payments to be made in respect of
Accounts to said lock box, or to otherwise remit the same to Bank. Bank in such
event shall have full power and authority to endorse Borrower's name on any
check, draft, note or other instrument for the payment of money which shall be
received from an Account Debtor. Borrower also agrees upon Bank's request to
execute and deliver to Bank a power of attorney in form satisfactory to Bank
authorizing any officer of Bank to notify postal authorities to change the
address for delivery of Borrower's mail to an address designated by Bank, and
authorizing Bank to open all such mail delivered to the designated address with
full power to endorse Borrower's name on any check, draft or other instrument
for the payment of money from an Account Debtor for collection, provided that
Bank promptly provides a list of all such instruments for the payment of money
endorsed by Bank and delivers all other unrelated mail promptly to Borrower.

         5.11. ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL. Any and all deposits or other sums at any
time credited by or due from Bank to Borrower shall at all times constitute
additional security for the Bank Debt and may be set off against any such Bank
Debt at any time, whether or not it is then due, or whether or not other
security held by Bank is considered by Bank to be adequate. Any and all
instruments, documents, policies, certificates of insurance, securities, goods,
accounts receivable, choses in action, chattel paper, cash, property and the
proceeds thereof (whether or not the same are Collateral or the proceeds
thereof) owned by Borrower or in which Borrower has an interest, which now or
hereafter are at any time in possession or control of Bank, in transit by mail
or carrier to or from Bank, or in the possession of any third party acting in
Bank's behalf, without regard to whether Bank received the same in pledge for
safekeeping, as agent for collection or transmission or otherwise, or whether
Bank has conditionally released the same, shall constitute

                                      -26-
<PAGE>

additional security for the Bank Debt and may be applied at any time to any such
Bank Debt which is then due, whether by acceleration or otherwise. In addition,
all other collateral security given by Borrower in favor of Bank, whether by
pledge, mortgage lien or security interest, shall secure all of the Bank Debt as
if expressly stated in the agreement or document relating to such collateral
security.

         5.12. PROCEEDS OF COLLATERAL. Borrower shall not, without the prior
written consent of Bank, sell, lease, grant a security interest in or otherwise
dispose of or encumber (other than Permitted Encumbrances) the Collateral, or
any part thereof or interest therein having a value in excess of $5,000 in any
single instance (or related series of instances) or in excess of $25,000 in the
aggregate as to all instances in any 12 month period, except for the sale of
Inventory in the normal course of Borrower's business and the sale or other
disposition of Equipment which is obsolete or otherwise in need of replacement.
In the event any Collateral is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of as
herein provided, Borrower shall deliver all of the cash proceeds of any such
sale, transfer or disposition to Bank, which proceeds shall be applied to the
repayment of the Bank Debt in such order as Bank may determine; provided that,
so long as no Event of Default or Possible Default then exists, Borrower may
utilize such proceeds for the acquisition of replacement Equipment of like kind
and utility.

         5.13 INVENTORY IN-TRANSIT. The Borrower may include as Eligible
Inventory, Inventory which is in transit or in Borrower's possession not more
than 30 days prior to its receipt at Borrower's principal place of business or
other place of business approved by the Bank so long as, at all times during
which such Inventory is claimed by Borrower to be Eligible Inventory, Borrower
evidences to the Bank's satisfaction that (i) such Inventory is subject to a
perfected, first priority security interest in such Inventory in favor of the
Bank, (ii) such Inventory is covered by the insurance required by Section 4.6,
above, and (iii) Borrower has delivered to the Bank copies or originals of such
bills of lading, warehouse receipts, documents of title and the like as the Bank
may require.

may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of Borrower or any
Event of Default, in its sole discretion, at any time or times thereafter, make
such payment, or any part thereof, or obtain such discharge and take any other
action with respect thereto which Bank deems advisable. All sums paid by Bank
hereunder and any expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs,
expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by
Borrower to Bank and shall be additional Bank Debt hereunder secured by the
Collateral.

         7.4. INSURANCE, PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS.

         (A) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain (i)
the tangible Collateral and the records relating to the Accounts insured for
their full insurable value against loss or damage by fire (including so-called
"extended coverage"), theft, explosion, sprinkler leakage and all other hazards
and risks ordinarily insured against by other prudent owners or users of such
properties in similar businesses (sometimes referred to herein as "casualty
insurance"), and (ii) insurance for liability from personal injury and property
damage in such amounts as similar businesses maintain. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall obtain and maintain casualty
insurance, with respect to Inventory in transit, as appropriate, open cargo
insurance (including war risk coverage), ship (including steamer and barge),
air, motor truck or rail cargo insurance or other cargo transportation
insurance, containing such terms, in such form, for such amounts, for such
periods and written by such companies as may be satisfactory to Bank. Borrower
shall notify Bank promptly of any event or occurrence causing a material loss or
decline in value of such Collateral and the estimated (or actual, if available)
amount of such loss or decline. All policies of insurance on such Collateral
shall be in form and with insurers recognized as adequate by prudent business
persons and all such policies shall provide such coverages and be in such
amounts as may be reasonably satisfactory to Bank.

                                      -37-
<PAGE>

         (B) At Bank's written request, Borrower shall, within fifteen (15) days
following such request, deliver to Bank the original (or certified copy) of each
policy of insurance required hereunder and evidence of payment of all premiums
therefor. Such policies of casualty insurance shall contain a mortgagee
endorsement or provision, in form and substance acceptable to Bank, and shall
show loss payable to Bank. Such policies, or an independent instrument furnished
to Bank, shall provide that the insurance companies will give Bank at least
thirty (30) days prior written notice before any such policy or policies of
insurance shall be altered or canceled and that no act or default of Borrower,
or any other Person shall affect the right of Bank to recover under such policy
or policies of insurance in case of loss or damage. Borrower hereby directs all
insurers under such policies of casualty insurance to pay all proceeds payable
thereunder directly to Bank. Borrower irrevocably makes, constitutes and
appoints Bank (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Bank) as
Borrower's true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact for the purpose of making,
settling and adjusting claims under such policies of casualty insurance,
endorsing the name of Borrower on any check, draft, instrument or other items of
payment for the proceeds of such policies of casualty insurance and for making
all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of casualty
insurance. In the event Borrower, at any time hereafter, shall fail to obtain or
maintain any of the policies of insurance required above or to pay any premium
in whole or in part relating thereto, then Bank, without waiving or releasing
any obligations or Event of Default, may at any time thereafter (but shall be
under no obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay
such premium and take any other action with respect thereto which Bank deems
advisable. All sums so disbursed by Bank, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable on
demand by Borrower to Bank and shall be additional Bank Debt hereunder secured
by the Collateral.

         (C) Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date,
cause Bank to be named loss payee under any and all credit insurance in respect
of Borrower's Account Debtors now or hereafter maintained by Borrower, which
credit insurance shall be in such amounts and other terms approved by Bank.

         (D) Borrower shall obtain no later that 90 days after the Closing Date,
and thereafter at all times maintain, so-called "key man" life insurance on the
life of Yan in an amount of not less than $1,000,000, which policy shall (not
later than the end of such 90 day period) be assigned as Collateral to Bank
pursuant to a Collateral Assignment of Life Insurance in form and substance
satisfactory to Bank, free and clear of any other Lien or encumbrance.

         7.5. USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower covenants and agrees that the proceeds
of the Revolving Loans shall be used solely for repayment in full of all sums
owing by Borrower to KeyBank, National Association and for working capital and
other corporate purposes not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

         7.6. SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS UPON TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. Except as
otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement and in the Other Agreements,
no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of this
Agreement or the Other Agreements shall

                                      -38-
<PAGE>

in any way affect or impair the powers, obligations, duties, rights, and
liabilities of Borrower or Bank relating to any transaction or event occurring
prior to such termination or cancellation.

determination deems such Reportable Event to constitute grounds (A) for the
termination of any Plan by the PBGC or (B) for the appointment by the

be designated by Bank, in its sole discretion;

         (D) The right to (i) demand payment of the Accounts; (ii) enforce

expenses incurred by Bank for collection and for acquisition, completion,
protection, removal, storage, sale and delivery of the Collateral; second to
interest due upon any of the Bank Debt; third to the principal of the Revolving
Loans; and fourth to the remaining Bank Debt, if any. Subject to any applicable

per annum in excess of the rate of interest which would otherwise accrue
pursuant to Section 2.5 or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by law.

         8.5. NOTICE. Any notice required to be given by Bank of a sale, lease,
other disposition of the Collateral or any other intended action by Bank, if
given five (5) days prior to such proposed action, shall constitute commercially
reasonable and fair notice thereof to Borrower.

cumulative and non-exclusive; and no such right or remedy specified in this
Article 8 shall be deemed to limit, before or after the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the exercise of any right of Bank provided for

                                      -42-

9.       MISCELLANEOUS

Bank) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) and Bank, or
Bank's agent, may, without notice to Borrower:

         (A) At such time or times hereafter as Bank or said agent, in its sole
discretion, may determine, in Borrower's or Bank's name, endorse Borrower's name
on any checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of
the Collateral which come into the possession of Bank or under Bank's control;
and

         (B) Sign the name of Borrower on any of the Supplemental Documentation
and deliver any of the Supplemental Documentation to such Persons as Bank, in
its sole discretion, may elect.

         9.2. MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT; SALE OF INTEREST. This Agreement and
the Other Agreements may not be modified, altered or amended, except by an
agreement in writing signed by Borrower and Bank. Borrower may not sell, assign
or transfer this Agreement, or the Other Agreements or any portion thereof,
including, without limitation, Borrower's rights, title, interest, remedies,
powers, and/or duties hereunder or thereunder. Borrower hereby consents to
Bank's participation, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, at any
time or times hereafter of this Agreement, or the Other Agreements, or of any

demand reimburse Bank, for all of Bank's costs and expenses incidental to the

provided for in this Agreement or any Other Agreement including reasonable fees
and out-of-pocket expenses of Bank's counsel, title fees, survey fees,

         9.4. WAIVER BY BANK. Bank's failure, at any time or times hereafter, to
require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or the
Other Agreements shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Bank
thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver
by Bank of an Event of Default under this Agreement or the Other Agreements
shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default under this
Agreement or the Other Agreements, and no Event of Default under this Agreement
or the Other Agreements shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by
Bank, unless such suspension

         9.5. SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement
and the Other Agreements shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective
and valid under applicable law. If, however, any provision of this Agreement
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement, unless the ineffectiveness of such provision materially and adversely
alters the benefits accruing to either party hereunder.

         9.6. PARTIES. This Agreement and the Other Agreements shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Bank and their respective
successors and assigns. This provision, however, shall not be deemed to modify
Section 9.2 hereof.

         9.7. CONFLICT OF TERMS. The Other Agreements and all Exhibits hereto
are incorporated in this Agreement by this reference thereto. Except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement and except as otherwise provided in the
Other Agreements by specific reference to the applicable provision of this
Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement is in conflict with, or
inconsistent with, any provision in the Other Agreements, the provision
contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

Agreement, Borrower waives (i) presentment, demand and protest and notice of
presentment, protest, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise,
settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts,
contract rights, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any
time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable and hereby ratifies
and confirms whatever Bank may do in this regard; (ii) all rights to notice of a

STATE OF OHIO, THE LAWS OF WHICH SHALL GOVERN THE VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT, AND
INTERPRETATION HEREOF AND OF THE OTHER AGREEMENTS. BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO
THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE STATE OF OHIO
OR ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH COLLATERAL IS LOCATED, AND WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE
OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON ITSELF, AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF
PROCESS BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL DIRECTED TO BORROWER AT THE
