               (a)  Interest Rate.  Except as provided in CLAUSE (c) below, (i)
all Obligations shall bear interest at a per annum rate of 0.75 percentage
points above the Base Rate.

               (b)  [Intentionally omitted].

               (c)  Default Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, (i) all Obligations that have been charged
to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest on the
Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate equal to 4.0 percentage points above
the per annum rate otherwise applicable hereunder.

               (d)  Minimum Interest.  In no event shall the rate of interest
chargeable hereunder for any day be less than 8.0% per annum.  To the extent
that interest accrued hereunder at the rate set forth herein would be less than
the foregoing minimum daily rate, the interest rate chargeable hereunder for
such day automatically shall be deemed increased to the minimum rate.

               (e)  Payments.  Interest payable hereunder shall be due and
payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month during the term hereof.
Borrower hereby authorizes Foothill, at its option, without prior notice to
Borrower, to charge such interest, all Foothill Expenses (as and when incurred),
the fees and charges provided for in SECTION 2.11 (as and when accrued or
incurred), and all installments or other payments due under any Loan Document to
Borrower's Loan Account, which amounts thereafter shall accrue interest at the
rate then applicable to Advances hereunder. Any interest not paid when due shall
be

                                          23
<PAGE>

compounded and shall thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable to
Advances hereunder.

               (f)  Computation.  In the event the Base Rate is changed from
time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder automatically
and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to such
change in the Base Rate. All interest and fees chargeable under the Loan
Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number
of days elapsed.

               (g)  Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate.  In no event
shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other
amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under
any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination,
deem applicable. Borrower and Foothill, in executing and delivering this
Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner
of payment stated within it; provided, however, that, anything contained herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest or manner of
payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto as
of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the
payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in
excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the
principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

          2.7  COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS.

               (a)  Borrower shall at all times maintain lockboxes (the
"Lockboxes") and, immediately after the Closing Date, shall instruct all Account
Debtors with respect to the Accounts, General Intangibles, and Negotiable
Collateral of Borrower to remit all Domestic Collections and all Foreign
Collections payable in Dollars in respect thereof to such Lockboxes or to a
Lockbox Account.  Borrower, Foothill, and the Lockbox Banks shall enter into the
Lockbox Agreements, which among other things shall provide for the opening of a
Lockbox Account for the deposit of Domestic Collections at a Lockbox Bank.
Borrower agrees that all Domestic Collections and other amounts received by
Borrower from any Account Debtor or any other source immediately upon receipt
shall be deposited into a Lockbox Account.  No Lockbox Agreement or arrangement
contemplated thereby shall be modified by Borrower without the prior written
consent of Foothill.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
the Lockbox Agreements, all amounts received in each Lockbox Account shall be
wired each Business Day into an account (the "Foothill Account") maintained by
Foothill at a depositary selected by Foothill.

               (b)  Borrower may maintain one or more Borrower Foreign Currency
Accounts with the Foreign Currency Account Banks.  Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries at all times promptly shall deposit all Foreign Collections and
other amounts payable in any currency other than Dollars and received by
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from any source, to the extent such Foreign
Collections and other amounts are not deposited in a Lockbox Account,
immediately upon receipt thereof into the applicable Borrower Foreign

                                          24
<PAGE>

Currency Account.  Each of the Foreign Subsidiaries may maintain with a Foreign
Currency Account Bank one or more Subsidiary Foreign Currency Operating
Accounts, but shall not maintain on deposit in any Subsidiary Foreign Currency
Operating Account any Collections from any source other than Borrower.  Subject
to the immediately following sentence, Borrower from time to time may provide
each of the Foreign Subsidiaries with funds for working capital purposes out of
non-Dollar denominated amounts in the Borrower Foreign Currency Account, and
each of the Foreign Subsidiaries shall maintain on deposit in the Subsidiary
Foreign Currency Operating Accounts such funds until used by such Foreign
Subsidiary for working capital purposes.  On the last Business Day of each week,
(i) to the extent that the aggregate Dollar amount (Based upon the applicable
Exchange Rate as of such Business Day) of balances in any Foreign Currency
Account of any Foreign Subsidiary exceeds an amount equal to 75% of such Foreign
Subsidiary's Foreign Subsidiary Operating Amount, such excess shall be wired
into a Foreign Currency Account of Borrower or converted into Dollars (at
Borrower's expense) and wired into the Foothill Account, and (ii) to the extent
that the aggregate Dollar amount (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate as of
such Business Day) of balances in all Foreign Currency Accounts (after giving
effect to any wire transfer made pursuant to the foregoing CLAUSE (i)) exceeds
the Aggregate Foreign Subsidiary Operating Amount, such excess shall be
converted into Dollars (at Borrower's sole expense) and wired into the Foothill
Account.

               (c)  Each Lockbox Bank shall establish and maintain tri-party
blocked account agreements with Foothill and Borrower, in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to Foothill.  Each such blocked account agreement shall
provide, among other things, that (i) all items of payment deposited in such
accounts and proceeds thereof are held by such banks as agent or
bailee-in-possession for Foothill, (ii) the bank executing such agreement has no
rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against such account, as the
case may be, other than for payment of its service fee and other charges
directly related to the administration of such account and for returned checks
or other items of payment, and (iii) the bank executing the agreement agrees
immediately to forward by daily sweep all amounts received in the applicable
account to the Foothill Account.

               (d)  Each Foreign Currency Bank shall establish and maintain
tri-party blocked-on-demand account agreements with Foothill and Borrower or its
Subsidiaries, as applicable, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
Foothill, it being expressly understood that the establishment of such tri-party
blocked-on-demand account agreements shall not be a condition precedent to the
effectiveness hereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that until all such tri-party
blocked-on-demand account agreements shall be established, all Foreign Accounts
shall be deemed to not be Eligible Foreign Accounts.

               (e)  Borrower shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to not, accumulate or maintain cash in disbursement or payroll accounts (not
including any Foreign Currency Account) as of any date of determination in
excess of checks outstanding against such accounts as of that date and amounts
necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.  Borrower and the Foreign
Subsidiaries shall close any of their accounts (and establish replacement
accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence) promptly and in any event

                                          25
<PAGE>

within 30 days of notice from Foothill that the creditworthiness of any bank
holding an account is no longer acceptable in Foothill's reasonable judgment, or
as promptly as practicable and in any event within 60 days of notice from
Foothill that the operating performance, funds transfer or availability
procedures or performance with respect to accounts or Lockboxes of the bank
holding such accounts or Foothill's liability under any tri-party blocked
account agreement or tri-party blocked-on-demand account agreement, as
applicable, with such bank is no longer acceptable in Foothill's reasonable
judgment.

               (f)  The arrangements contemplated in this SECTION 2.7 shall not
be modified by Borrower or any of the Foreign Subsidiaries without the prior
written consent of Foothill.

          2.8  CREDITING PAYMENTS; APPLICATION OF COLLECTIONS.  The receipt of
any Collections by Foothill (whether from transfers to Foothill by the Lockbox
Banks, the Foreign Currency Accounts Banks, or otherwise) immediately shall be
applied provisionally to reduce the Obligations outstanding under SECTION 2.1,
but shall not be considered a payment on account unless such Collection item is
a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds and is made to the
Foothill Account or unless and until such Collection item is honored when
presented for payment. From and after the Closing Date, Foothill shall be
entitled to charge Borrower for 1 Business Day of 'clearance' or 'float' at the
rate set forth in SECTION 2.6(a)(i) or SECTION 2.6(c)(i), as applicable, on all
Collections that are received by Borrower (regardless of whether forwarded by
the Lockbox Banks or Foreign Currency Account Banks to Foothill, whether
provisionally applied to reduce the Obligations under SECTION 2.1, or
otherwise). This across-the-board 1 Business Day clearance or float charge on
all Collections is acknowledged by the parties to constitute an integral aspect
of the pricing of Foothill's financing of Borrower, and shall apply irrespective
of the characterization of whether receipts are owned by Borrower or Foothill,
and whether or not there are any outstanding Advances, the effect of such
clearance or float charge being the equivalent of charging 1 Business Day of
interest on such Collections. Should any Collection item not be honored when
presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such
payment, and interest shall be recalculated accordingly. Anything to the
contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any Collection item shall be deemed
received by Foothill only if it is received into the Foothill Account on a
Business Day on or before 11:00 a.m. California time. If any Collection item is
received into the Foothill Account on a non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m.
California time on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by
Foothill as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business
Day.

          2.9  DESIGNATED ACCOUNT.  Foothill is authorized to make the Advances
under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from
anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person, or without instructions if
pursuant to SECTION 2.6(e). Borrower agrees to establish and maintain the
Designated Account with the Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving
the proceeds of the Advances requested by Borrower and made by Foothill
hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by Foothill and Borrower, any Advance
requested by Borrower and made by Foothill hereunder shall be made to the
Designated Account.

                                          26
<PAGE>

          2.10 MAINTENANCE OF LOAN ACCOUNT; STATEMENTS OF OBLIGATIONS.
       Foothill shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower
(the "Loan Account") on which Borrower will be charged with all Advances made by
Foothill to Borrower or for Borrower's account, including, accrued interest,
Foothill Expenses, and any other payment Obligations of Borrower. In accordance
with SECTION 2.8, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received
by Foothill from Borrower or for Borrower's account, including all amounts
received in the Foothill Account from any Lockbox Bank. Foothill shall render
monthly statements regarding the Loan Account to Borrower, including principal,
interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges and expenses
constituting Foothill Expenses owing, and such statements shall be conclusively
presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between
Borrower and Foothill unless, within 30 days after receipt thereof by Borrower,
Borrower shall deliver to Foothill written objection thereto describing the
error or errors contained in any such statements.

          2.11 FEES.  Borrower shall pay to Foothill the following fees:

               (a)  Origination Fee. On the Closing Date, an origination fee of
$112,500;

               (b)  Unused Line Fee. On the first day of each month during the
term of this Agreement, an unused line fee in an amount equal to 0.50% per annum
times the Average Unused Portion of the Maximum Amount;

               (c)  Collateral Management Fee.  On the first day of each month
during the term of this Agreement, a collateral management fee of $2,500 per
month; and

               (d)  Financial Examination, Documentation, and Appraisal Fees.
Foothill's customary fee of $750 per day per examiner, plus out-of-pocket
expenses for each financial analysis and examination (i.e., audits) of Borrower
performed by personnel employed by Foothill; Foothill's out-of-pocket expenses
for each appraisal of the Collateral performed by personnel employed by
Foothill; and, the actual charges paid or incurred by Foothill if it elects to
employ the services of one or more third Persons to perform such financial
analyses and examinations (i.e., audits) of Borrower or to appraise the
Collateral; and, at the Borrowers' election, a one time charge of $3,000 plus
out-of-pocket expenses for the establishment of electronic collateral reporting
systems.

          3.1  CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE INITIAL ADVANCE.

               (g)  upon Foothill's request, within 90 days of the Closing Date,
deliver or cause to be delivered such agreements, instruments, or other

          3.4  TERM.    This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution

right to terminate its obligations under this

                                       31
<PAGE>

Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default.

          3.5  EFFECT OF TERMINATION.    On the date of termination of this
Agreement, all Obligations immediately shall become due and payable without
notice or demand. No termination of this Agreement, however, shall relieve or
discharge Borrower of Borrower's duties, Obligations, or covenants hereunder,
and Foothill's continuing security interests in the Collateral shall remain in
effect until all Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and
Foothill's obligation to provide additional credit hereunder is terminated.

          3.6  EARLY TERMINATION BY BORROWER.    The provisions of SECTION 3.4
to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower has the option, at any time upon 90
days prior written notice to Foothill, to terminate this Agreement by paying to
Foothill, in cash, the Obligations, in full, together with the Applicable
Prepayment Premium.

          3.7  TERMINATION UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.    If Foothill terminates this
Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, in view of the
impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by
mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of Foothill's
lost profits as a result thereof, Borrower shall pay to Foothill upon the
effective date of such termination, a premium in an amount equal to the
Applicable Prepayment Premium. The Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be
presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by Foothill as the result of the
early termination and Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the
circumstances currently existing. The Applicable Prepayment Premium provided for
in this SECTION 3.7 shall be deemed included in the Obligations.

4.   CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.

          4.1  GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.    Borrower hereby grants to Foothill
a continuing security interest in all currently existing and hereafter acquired
or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and all
Obligations and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its
covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Foothill's security interests in
the Collateral shall attach to all Collateral without further act on the part of
Foothill or Borrower. Anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to the contrary notwithstanding, except for Permitted Dispositions,
Borrower has no authority, express or implied, to dispose of any of its property
or assets.

          4.2  NEGOTIABLE COLLATERAL.    In the event that any Collateral,
including proceeds, is evidenced by or consists of Negotiable Collateral,
Borrower, immediately shall endorse and deliver physical possession of such
Negotiable Collateral to Foothill.

COLLATERAL.

          At any time, Foothill or Foothill's designee may (a) notify Account
Debtors of Borrower that the Accounts, General Intangibles, or Negotiable
Collateral have been assigned to Foothill or that Foothill has a security
interest therein, and (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, collect the Accounts, General Intangibles, and Negotiable
Collateral directly and charge the collection costs and expenses to the Loan
Account.  Borrower agrees that it will hold in trust for Foothill, as Foothill's
trustee, any Collections that it receives and immediately will deliver said
Collections to Foothill in their original form as received by Borrower.

          4.4  DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED.    At any time
upon the request of Foothill, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Foothill all
financing statements, continuation financing statements, fixture filings,
security agreements, pledges, assignments, endorsements of certificates of
title, applications for title, affidavits, reports, notices, schedules of
accounts, letters of authority, and all other documents that Foothill reasonably
may request, in form satisfactory to Foothill, to perfect and continue perfected
Foothill's security interests in the Collateral, and in order to fully
consummate all of the transactions contemplated hereby and under the other the
Loan Documents.

          4.5  POWER OF ATTORNEY.    Borrower hereby irrevocably makes,
constitutes, and appoints Foothill (and any of Foothill's officers, employees,
or agents designated by Foothill) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney, with
power to (a) if Borrower refuses to, or fails timely to execute and deliver any
of the documents described in SECTION 4.4, sign the name of Borrower on any of
the documents described in SECTION 4.4, (b) at any time that an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing or Foothill deems itself insecure, sign
Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts
against Account Debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of
Accounts, and notices to Account Debtors, (c) send requests for verification of
Accounts, (d) endorse Borrower's name on any Collection item that may come into
Foothill's possession, (e) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing or Foothill deems itself insecure, notify the post office
authorities to change the address for delivery of Borrower's mail to an address
designated by Foothill, to receive and open all mail addressed to Borrower, and
to retain all mail relating to the Collateral and forward all other mail to
Borrower, (f) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or Foothill deems itself insecure, make, settle, and adjust all
claims under Borrower's policies of insurance and make all determinations and
decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, and (g) at any time that
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or Foothill deems itself
insecure, settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the Accounts directly
with Account Debtors, for amounts and upon terms that Foothill determines to be
reasonable, and Foothill may cause to be executed and delivered any documents
and releases that Foothill determines to be necessary. The appointment of
Foothill as Borrower's attorney, and each and every one of Foothill's rights and
powers, being coupled with an interest, is

                                       33

irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully and finally repaid and
performed and Foothill's obligation to extend credit hereunder is terminated.

          4.6  RIGHT TO INSPECT.    Foothill (through any of its officers,
employees, or agents) shall have the right, from time to time hereafter and, so
long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing during normal
business hours, to inspect Borrower's book and records and to check, test, and
appraise the Collateral in order to verify Borrower's financial condition or the
amount, quality, value, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the
Collateral.

Obligations to deliver its annual financial statements at the time when Borrower

has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to
Borrower, Borrower promptly shall determine the reason for such return and, if
Borrower accepts such return, issue a credit memorandum (with a copy to be sent
to Foothill) in the appropriate amount to such Account Debtor. If, at a time
when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Account Debtor
returns any Inventory to Borrower, Borrower promptly shall determine the reason
for such return and, if Foothill consents (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), issue a credit memorandum (with a copy to be sent to
Foothill) in the appropriate amount to such Account Debtor.

          6.7  TITLE TO EQUIPMENT.    Upon Foothill's request, Borrower

permit any item of Equipment to become a fixture to real estate or an accession
to other property, and such Equipment shall at all times remain personal
property.

          6.9  TAXES.    Cause all assessments and taxes, whether real,
personal, or otherwise, due or payable by, or imposed, levied, or assessed
against Borrower or any of its property to be paid in full, before delinquency
or before the expiration of any extension period, except to the extent that the
validity of such assessment or tax shall be the subject of

                                       41
<PAGE>

a Permitted Protest. Borrower shall make due and timely payment or deposit of
all such federal, state, and local taxes, assessments, or contributions required
of it by law, and will execute and deliver to Foothill, on demand, appropriate
certificates attesting to the payment thereof or deposit with respect thereto.
Borrower will make timely payment or deposit of all tax payments and withholding
taxes required of it by applicable laws, including those laws concerning
F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A., state disability, and local, state, federal, and foreign
income taxes, and will, upon request, furnish Foothill with proof satisfactory
to Foothill indicating that Borrower has made such payments or deposits.

          6.10 INSURANCE.

relating to Borrower's ownership and use of the Collateral, as well as insurance
against larceny, embezzlement, and criminal misappropriation.

               (b)  At its expense, obtain and maintain (i) insurance of the
type necessary to insure the Collateral for the full replacement cost thereof,
against any loss by fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, aircraft, smoke
damage, vehicle damage, earthquakes, elevator collision, and other risks from
time to time included under "extended coverage" policies, in such amounts as
Foothill may require, but in any event in amounts sufficient to prevent Borrower
from becoming a co-insurer under such policies, (ii) combined single limit
bodily injury and property damages insurance against any loss, liability, or
damages on, about, or relating to each parcel of Real Property, in an amount of
not less than $2,000,000; and (iii)  insurance for such other risks as Foothill
may require.

               (c)  All such policies of insurance shall be in such amounts and
with such insurance companies as are reasonably satisfactory to Foothill.  The
Borrower shall deliver the originals of all such policies to Foothill with 438
BFU lender's loss payable endorsements or other satisfactory lender's loss
payable endorsements, naming Foothill as sole loss payee or additional insured,
as appropriate.  Each policy of insurance or endorsement shall contain a clause
requiring the insurer to give not less than 30 days prior written notice to
Foothill and that any loss payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding
any act or negligence of Borrower or Foothill which might, absent such
agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment and
notwithstanding (i) occupancy or use of the Real Property for purposes more
hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, or (ii) any change in
title or ownership of the Real Property. Borrower shall deliver to Foothill
certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of the payment of
all premiums therefor.  If Borrower fails to provide and pay for such insurance,
Foothill may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the same and
charge Borrower's Loan Account therefor.

<PAGE>

               (d)  Original policies or certificates thereof satisfactory to
Foothill evidencing such insurance shall be delivered to Foothill at least 30
days prior to the expiration of the existing or preceding policies. Borrower
shall give Foothill prompt notice of any loss covered by such insurance, and
Foothill shall have the right to adjust any loss. Foothill shall have the
exclusive right to adjust any losses payable under any such insurance policies
in excess of $100,000 without any liability to Borrower whatsoever in respect of
such adjustments. Any monies received as payment for any loss under any
insurance policy mentioned above (other than liability insurance policies) or as
payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent
domain, shall be paid over to Foothill to be applied at the option of Foothill
either to the prepayment of the Obligations without premium, in such order or
manner as Foothill may elect, or shall be disbursed to Borrower under stage
payment terms reasonably satisfactory to Foothill for application to the cost of
repairs, replacements, or restorations. All repairs, replacements, or
restorations shall be effected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a
value at least equal to the value of the items or property destroyed prior to
such damage or destruction. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Foothill
shall have the right to apply all prepaid premiums to the payment of the
Obligations in such order or form as Foothill shall determine.

               (e)  Borrower shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in
form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained
under this SECTION 6.10, unless Foothill is included thereon as named insured
with the loss payable to Foothill under a standard California 438BFU (NS)
Mortgagee endorsement, or its local equivalent. Borrower immediately shall
notify Foothill whenever such separate insurance is taken out, specifying the
insurer thereunder and full particulars as to the policies evidencing the same,
and originals of such policies immediately shall be provided to Foothill.

          6.11 NO SETOFFS OR COUNTERCLAIMS.    Make payments hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of Borrower without setoff or
counterclaim and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or
on account of, any federal, state, or local taxes.

          6.12 LOCATION OF INVENTORY AND EQUIPMENT.    Keep the Inventory and
Equipment only at the locations identified on SCHEDULE 6.12; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that Borrower may amend SCHEDULE 6.12 so long as such amendment occurs by
written notice to Foothill not less than 30 days prior to the date on which the
Inventory or Equipment is moved to such new location, so long as such new
location is within the continental United States, Thailand, or the Netherlands,
and so long as, at the time of such written notification, Borrower provides any
financing statements or fixture filings necessary to perfect and continue
perfected Foothill's security interests in such assets and also provides to
Foothill a Collateral Access Agreement.  The foregoing to the contrary
notwithstanding, the aggregate value of Inventory located in Thailand shall not,
at any time, exceed $1,750,000, the aggregate value of Inventory located in the
Netherlands shall not, at any time, exceed $4,500,000, and the aggregate value
of Inventory located in all other locations outside the continental United
States shall not exceed $500,000.

applicable laws, rules, regulations, and orders of any governmental authority,
including the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Americans With Disabilities Act,
other than laws, rules, regulations, and orders the non-compliance with which,
individually or in the aggregate, would not result in and reasonably could not
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

          6.14 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

          6.15 LEASES.    Pay when due all rents and other amounts payable under
any leases to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower's properties and
assets are bound, unless such payments are the subject of a Permitted Protest.

amounts payable when due under its leases, Foothill shall be entitled, in its
discretion, to reserve an amount equal to such unpaid amounts against the
Borrowing Base.

the date that such copyrightable materials have been registered or an

acceptable to Foothill, and shall, at the request of Foothill, advise the
operators of such locations of Foothill's security interest in such software,

                                       51
<PAGE>

               (e)  Cause Borrower to hold all returned Inventory in trust for
Foothill, segregate all returned Inventory from all other property of Borrower
or in Borrower's possession and conspicuously label said returned Inventory as
the property of Foothill;

               (f)  Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, any of its
Subsidiaries, or any other guarantor, make such payments and do such acts as
Foothill considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in
the Collateral.  Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Foothill so
requires, and to make the Collateral available to Foothill as Foothill may
designate.  Borrower authorizes Foothill to enter the premises where the
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any
part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or Lien that in Foothill's determination appears to conflict with its
security interests and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
With respect to any of Borrower's owned or leased premises, Borrower hereby
grants Foothill a license to enter into possession of such premises and to
occupy the same, without charge, for up to 120 days in order to exercise any of
Foothill's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

               (g)  Without notice to Borrower (such notice being expressly
waived), and without constituting a retention of any collateral in satisfaction
of an obligation (within the meaning of Section 9505 of the Code), set off and
apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held
by Foothill (including any amounts received in the Lockbox Accounts), or (ii)
indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower
held by Foothill;

               (h)  Hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits
of Borrower held by Foothill, and any amounts received in the Lockbox Accounts,
to secure the full and final repayment of all of the Obligations;

               (i)  Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Foothill is hereby granted a license or other right to
use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of
any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising
matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral,
in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral
and Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall
inure to Foothill's benefit;

               (j)  Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or
both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in
such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Foothill
determines is commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Collateral
be present at any such sale;

               (k)  Foothill shall give notice of the disposition of the
Collateral as follows:

                    (1) Foothill shall give Borrower and each holder of a
               security interest in the Collateral who has filed with Foothill a
               written request for

                                 52
<PAGE>
               notice, a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale,
               or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other
               than a public sale is to be made of the Collateral, then the time
               on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be
               made;

                    (2) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed,
               postage prepaid, to Borrower as provided in SECTION 12, at least
               5 days before the date fixed for the sale, or at least 5 days
               before the date on or after which the private sale or other
               disposition is to be made; no notice needs to be given prior to
               the disposition of any portion of the Collateral that is
               perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is
               of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Notice to
               Persons other than Borrower claiming an interest in the
               Collateral shall be sent to such addresses as they have furnished
               to Foothill;

                    (3) If the sale is to be a public sale, Foothill also shall
               give notice of the time and place by publishing a notice one time
               at least 5 days before the date of the sale in a newspaper of
               general circulation in the county in which the sale is to be
               held;

                    (l)  Foothill may credit bid and purchase at any public
sale; and

                    (m)  Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. Any excess
will be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third Persons,
by Foothill to Borrower.

          9.2  REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.  Foothill's rights and remedies under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Foothill shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Foothill of one
right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Foothill of any
Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Foothill shall
constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

10.  TAXES AND EXPENSES.

          If Borrower fails to pay any monies (whether taxes, assessments,
insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets, rents or
other amounts payable under such leases) due to third Persons, or fails to make
any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as
required under the terms of this Agreement, then, to the extent that Foothill
determines that such failure by Borrower could result in a Material Adverse
Change, in its discretion and without prior notice to Borrower, Foothill may do
any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof;
(b) set up such reserves in Borrower's Loan Account as Foothill deems necessary
to protect Foothill from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and
maintain insurance policies of the type described in SECTION 6.10, and take any
action with respect to such policies as Foothill deems prudent. Any such amounts
paid by Foothill shall constitute Foothill Expenses. Any such payments

                                       53
<PAGE>

made by Foothill shall not constitute an agreement by Foothill to make similar
payments in the future or a waiver by Foothill of any Event of Default under
this Agreement. Foothill need not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any
such expense, tax, or Lien and the receipt of the usual official notice for the
payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due and
owing.

11.  WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

          11.1 DEMAND; PROTEST; ETC.    Borrower waives demand, protest,
notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and
nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension,
or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at
any time held by Foothill on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

          11.2 FOOTHILL'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL.    So long as Foothill
complies with its obligations, if any, under Section 9207 of the Code, Foothill
shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping
of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any
manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or
(d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency,
or other Person. All risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral
shall be borne by Borrower.

          11.3 INDEMNIFICATION.    Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and
hold Foothill, each Participant, and each of their respective officers,
directors, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (each, an
"Indemnified Person") harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and
against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations,
proceedings, and damages, and all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements
and other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith (as and
when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time
asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them in connection with or
as a result of or related to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance,
and administration of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated herein, and with respect to any investigation,
litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or
the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of
whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event
or circumstance in any manner related thereto (all the foregoing, collectively,
the "Indemnified Liabilities"). Borrower shall have no obligation to any
Indemnified Person under this SECTION 11.3 with respect to any Indemnified
Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified
Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
repayment of the Obligations.

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

equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this
Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by

payment of the Obligations by Borrower or any guarantor of the Obligations or
the transfer by either or both of such parties to Foothill of any property of
either or both of such parties should for any reason subsequently be declared to
be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors'
rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent
conveyances, preferences, and other voidable or recoverable payments of money or
transfers of property (collectively, a "Voidable Transfer"), and if Foothill is

such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that Foothill is required or
elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and
attorneys fees of Foothill related thereto, the liability of Borrower or such
guarantor automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall
exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

          15.9 INTEGRATION.  This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by

     shall be deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation."

                      (v)     References to agreements and other contractual
     instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments,
     restatements, supplements, refinancings, renewals, extensions, and other
     modifications thereto and thereof.

                      (vi)    References to statutes or regulations are to be
     construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions
     consolidating, amending or replacing the statute or regulation referred to.

                      (vii)   Any captions and headings are for convenience of
     reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

                      (viii)  Capitalized words not otherwise defined herein

                      (ix)    In the event of a direct conflict between the
     terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Agreement, it is the
     intention of the parties hereto that both such documents shall be read
     together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert
     with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that
     cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of the Loan
     Agreement shall control and govern; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the inclusion
     herein of additional obligations on the part of Debtor and supplemental
     rights and remedies in favor of Secured Party (whether under California law
     or applicable federal law), in each case in respect of the Copyright
     Collateral, shall not be deemed a conflict with the Loan Agreement.

          2.    SECURITY INTEREST.

                (a)   ASSIGNMENT AND GRANT OF SECURITY.  Debtor, as security
for the payment and performance of the Obligations, hereby grants, assigns,

     Debtor or in the name of Secured Party for past, present and future

<PAGE>

                      (iv)    all Proceeds of any and all of the foregoing
     Copyright Collateral (including license royalties, rights to payment,
     accounts receivable and proceeds of infringement suits) and, to the extent
     not otherwise included, all payments under insurance (whether or not
     Secured Party is the loss payee thereof) or any indemnity, warranty or
     guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect
     to the foregoing Copyright Collateral.

                (b)   CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST.  Debtor agrees that this
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Copyright
Collateral which shall remain in effect until terminated in accordance with
SECTION 16.

                (c)   INCORPORATION INTO LOAN AGREEMENT.  This Agreement
shall be fully incorporated into the Loan Agreement and all understandings,
agreements and provisions contained in the Loan Agreement shall be fully
incorporated into this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, the
Copyright Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute part of the
Collateral in the Loan Agreement.

                (d)   PERMITTED LICENSING.  Anything in the Loan Agreement or
this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Debtor may license to any
other Person the Copyright Collateral on a non-exclusive basis, free and
clear of Secured Party's security interest (other than its security interest
in the proceeds of such license).

          3.    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  Debtor represents and
warrants to Secured Party, the following:

                (a)   TRUE AND COMPLETE LIST.  Set forth in SCHEDULE A is a
true and complete list of all Copyrights, Registrations, and Copyright Rights
owned, held, or used (whether pursuant to a license or otherwise) by Debtor,
in whole or in part;

                (b)   VALIDITY.  Each of the Registrations of Debtor referred
to in SCHEDULE A is valid, subsisting and enforceable, and Debtor has
properly complied in all material respects with all applicable statutory and
regulatory requirements, including all notice requirements, in connection
with each of such Registrations, and,  no claim has been made that the use of
any of such Copyrights does or may infringe or otherwise violate the rights
of any third Person;

                (c)   TITLE.  (i) Debtor has rights in and good and
defensible title to the Copyright Collateral, (ii) with respect to the
Copyright Collateral shown on SCHEDULE A as being owned by it, is the sole
and exclusive owner of the entire and unencumbered right, title and interest
in and to such Copyright Collateral, free and clear of any Liens (other than
Liens in favor of Secured Party), and (iii) with respect to any Copyright
Collateral for which Debtor is either a licensor or a licensee pursuant to a
license or licensing agreement regarding such Copyright Collateral, each such
license or licensing agreement is in full force and effect, Debtor is not in
material default of any of its obligations thereunder and, other than (A) the
parties to such licenses or licensing agreements, or (B) in the case of any
non-exclusive license or license agreement entered into by Debtor or any such
licensor regarding

                                      5

<PAGE>

such Copyright Collateral, the parties to any other such non-exclusive
licenses or license agreements entered into by Debtor or any such licensor
with any other Person, no other Person has any rights in or to any of such
Copyright Collateral;

                (d)   NO VIOLATION.  The execution, delivery and performance
by Debtor of this Agreement do not violate any provision of law or the
articles of incorporation or by-laws of Debtor or result in a breach of or
constitute a default under any contract, obligation, indenture or other
instrument to which Debtor is a party or by which Debtor may be bound;

                (e)   POWERS.  Debtor has full power, authority and legal
right to pledge and to grant to Secured Party a security interest in all
right, title, and interest of Debtor in and to the Copyright Collateral
pursuant to this Agreement, and to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the
consent or approval of any other Person except as already obtained; and

                (f)   SECRECY.  Debtor has taken and will continue to take
all reasonable steps to protect the secrecy of all trade secrets relating to
any of its unpublished Copyright Collateral and its Proprietary Rights.

          4.    COVENANTS.  Debtor covenants that so long as this Agreement
shall be in effect, Debtor shall:

                (a)   FURTHER ACTS.  On a continuing basis, make, execute,
acknowledge and deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and
recording places, all such instruments and documents, including appropriate
financing and continuation statements and security agreements, and take all
such action as may be necessary or advisable or may be requested by Secured
Party to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, or for
assuring, confirming or protecting the grant or perfection of the security
interest granted or purported to be granted hereby, to ensure Debtor's
compliance with this Agreement or to enable Secured Party to exercise and
enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Copyright
Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence,
Debtor:

                      (i)     hereby authorizes Secured Party in its sole
     discretion if Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to
     execute and deliver, any of the documents it is requested to execute and
     deliver by Secured Party, to modify this Agreement without first obtaining
     Debtor's approval of or signature to such modification by amending
     SCHEDULE A hereof to include a reference to any right, title or interest in
     any existing Copyright, Registration or Copyright Right or any Copyright,
     Registration or Copyright Right acquired or developed by Debtor after the
     execution hereof, or to delete any reference to any right, title or
     interest in any Copyright, Registration or Copyright Right in which Debtor
     no longer has or claims any right, title or interest; and

                                      6

<PAGE>

                      (ii)    hereby authorizes Secured Party, in its sole
     discretion, to file one or more financing or continuation statements, if
     Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute and
     deliver, any such amendment thereto it is requested to execute and deliver
     by Secured Party, any amendments thereto, relative to all or any portion of
     the Copyright Collateral, without the signature of Debtor where permitted
     by law;

                (b)   COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.  Comply, in all material respects,
with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements in connection with
any and all of the Copyright Collateral that is the subject of the
Registrations and give such notice of copyright, prosecute such material
claims, and do all other acts and take all other measures which, in Debtor's
reasonable business judgment, may be necessary or desirable to preserve,
protect and maintain such Copyright Collateral and all of Debtor's rights
therein, including diligently prosecute any material copyright application
pending as of the date of this Agreement or thereafter;

                (c)   COMPLIANCE WITH AGREEMENT.  Comply with each of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement, and not enter into any agreement (for
example, a license agreement) which is inconsistent with the obligations of
Debtor under this Agreement without Secured Party's prior written consent; and

                (d)   LIEN PROTECTION.  Not permit the inclusion in any
contract to which Debtor becomes a party of any provision that could or might
impair or prevent the creation of a security interest in favor of Secured
Party in Debtor's rights and interest in any property included within the
definitions of the Copyrights, Registrations and Copyright Rights acquired
under such contracts.

          5.    FUTURE RIGHTS.  If Debtor shall obtain rights to or develop
any new works protectable by copyright, or become entitled to the benefit of
any Copyright Rights, Registration or application for Registration not
described on the schedules hereto, or any renewals or extension of any
Copyright, Copyright Rights or Registration, the provisions of this Agreement
shall automatically apply thereto.  Debtor shall give Secured Party written
notice (a) of any such work or such rights of material value to Debtor or the
operation of its businesses and (b) any such Registration, applications for
Registration or renewal or extension of any Copyright.  Concurrently with its
filing of an application for any Registration for any Copyright, Debtor shall
execute and deliver a supplement to this Agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the Secured Party (or, at the election of Secured Party, a
new Copyright Security Agreement substantially in the form of this Agreement
and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party),
pursuant to which Debtor shall grant and reaffirm its grant of a security
interest to the extent of its interest in such Registration as provided
herein to Secured Party, and Debtor shall cause such agreement to be recorded
in the offices and jurisdictions indicated by Secured Party.

          6.    COPYRIGHT REGISTRATION, RENEWAL AND LITIGATION.

                                      7

<PAGE>

                (a)   REGISTRATION.  Except to the extent otherwise permitted
under the Loan Agreement, Debtor shall have the duty diligently to make any
application for Registration on any existing or future unregistered but
copyrightable works that are material to Debtor's business or operations and
to do any and all acts which are reasonably necessary or desirable to
preserve, renew and maintain all rights in all Copyrights, Registrations and
Copyright Rights.  Any expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be
borne solely by Debtor.  Except as otherwise permitted in the Loan Agreement
or this SECTION 6(a), Debtor shall not do any act or omit to do any act
whereby any of the Copyright Collateral may become abandoned or fall into the
public domain or fail to renew any Copyright, Registration or Copyright Right
owned by Debtor without the prior written consent of Secured Party.

                (b)   PROTECTION.  Except as provided in SECTION 8, Debtor
shall have the right and obligation to commence and diligently prosecute in
its own name, as real party in interest, for its own benefit and at its own
expense, such suits, proceedings or other actions for infringement or other
damage as are in its reasonable business judgment necessary to protect the
Copyright Collateral or any of Debtor's rights therein.  Debtor shall provide
to Secured Party any information with respect thereto requested by Secured
Party.  Secured Party shall provide at Debtor's expense all necessary
cooperation in connection with any such suit, proceeding or action including
joining as a nominal party if Secured Party shall have been satisfied that it
is not incurring any risk of liability because of such joinder.  Debtor shall
provide at its expense representation acceptable to Secured Party for the
common interest of Debtor and Secured Party with respect to such proceedings.

                (c)   NOTICE.  Debtor shall, promptly upon its becoming aware
thereof, notify Secured Party in writing of the institution of, or any
adverse determination in, any proceeding, application, suit or action of any
kind described in SECTION 6(a) OR 6(b), or regarding Debtor's claim of
ownership in any of the Copyrights, Registrations or Copyright Rights, its
right to register the same, or its right to keep and maintain such
registration, whether before the United States Copyright Office or any United
States court or governmental agency.  Debtor shall provide promptly to
Secured Party any information with respect thereto requested from time to
time by Secured Party.

          7.    REMEDIES.  Following the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have all rights and
remedies available to it under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and applicable law (which rights and remedies are cumulative) with
respect to its security interests in any of the Copyright Collateral or any
other Collateral. Debtor agrees that such rights and remedies include the
right of Secured Party as a secured party to sell or otherwise dispose of its
Collateral after default, pursuant to UCC Section 9504.  Debtor agrees that
Secured Party shall at all times have such royalty free licenses, to the
extent permitted by law, for any Copyright, Copyright Rights, Proprietary
Right and any other Copyright Collateral that is reasonably necessary to
permit the exercise of any of Secured Party's rights or remedies upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default with respect to
(among other things) any asset of Debtor in which Secured Party has a
security interest, including Secured Party's rights to sell or license
general intangibles, inventory, tooling or packaging which is acquired by

                                      8

<PAGE>

Debtor (or its successors, permitted assignees, or trustee in bankruptcy).
In addition to and without limiting any of the foregoing, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have
the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit, or to take such
other action as Secured Party deems necessary or advisable, in the name of
Debtor or Secured Party, to enforce or protect any Copyright, Registration,
Copyright Right or Proprietary Right, and any license thereunder, in which
event Debtor shall, at the request of Secured Party, do any and all lawful
acts and execute any and all documents required by Secured Party in aid of
such enforcement.  To the extent that Secured Party shall elect not to bring
suit to enforce any Copyright, Registration, Copyright Rights, Proprietary
Right, or any license thereunder, Debtor, in the exercise of its reasonable
business judgment, agrees to use all reasonable measures and its diligent
efforts, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the
infringement, misappropriation or violation thereof by others and for that
purpose agrees diligently to maintain any action, suit or proceeding against
any Person necessary to prevent such infringement, misappropriation or
violation.

          8.    AUTHORIZATION.  If Debtor fails to comply with any of its
obligations hereunder, Secured Party may do so in Debtor's name or in Secured
Party's name, but at Debtor's expense, and Debtor hereby agrees to reimburse
Secured Party in full upon demand for all reasonable expenses, including
reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Secured Party in protecting, defending
and maintaining any of the Copyright Collateral or any right, title or
interest of Debtor or Secured Party therein.  Debtor hereby appoints Secured
Party, and authorizes, directs and empowers Secured Party to make, constitute
and appoint any officer or agent of Secured Party as Secured Party may
select, in its exclusive discretion, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact
of Debtor, with the power, (a) if Debtor refuses or fails to do so timely, to
execute in the name of Debtor any financing statement or other instrument and
any modification, supplement or amendment to this Agreement or any
supplemental Copyright Security Agreement described in SECTIONS 4(a) OR 5
hereof, and do such other acts on Debtor's behalf, that Secured Party may
deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, and (b) upon
the occurrence and during continuation of any Event of Default, (i) to
endorse Debtor's name on all applications, documents, papers and instruments
necessary for Secured Party to use any of the Copyright Collateral, (ii) to
assert or retain any rights under any license agreement for any of the
Copyright Collateral, including any rights of Debtor arising under Section
365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) to grant or issue any exclusive or
nonexclusive license under any of the Copyright Collateral to anyone else, or
as may be necessary for Secured Party to assign, pledge, convey or otherwise
transfer title in or dispose of any of the Copyright Collateral or any other
collateral to anyone else.  Debtor hereby ratifies all that such attorney
shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of
attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until termination of
this Agreement.

          9.    NOTICES.  All notices and other communications hereunder to
or from Secured Party and Debtor shall be in writing and shall be mailed,
sent or delivered in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

                                      9

          10.   GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of
California, except to the extent that the validity or perfection of the
security interests hereunder in respect of any Copyright Collateral are
governed by federal law, in which case such choice of California law shall
not be deemed to deprive Secured Party of such rights and remedies as may be
available under federal law.

          11.   ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT.  This Agreement and the Loan
Agreement, together with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto, which
are incorporated herein by this reference, contains the entire agreement of
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
drafts and communications relating to such subject matter.  Neither this
Agreement nor any provision hereof may be modified, amended or waived except
by the written agreement of the parties, as provided in the Loan Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party may re-execute this Agreement,
modify, amend or supplement the Schedules hereto or execute a supplemental
Copyright Security Agreement, as provided herein, and the terms of any such
modification, amendment, supplement or supplemental Copyright Security
Agreement shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by this reference.

          12.   SEVERABILITY.  If one or more provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any
jurisdiction or with respect to any party, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render
illegal or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with
respect to any other party, or any other provisions of this Agreement.

          13.   COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.  This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original
executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed
counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original
executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original
executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and
binding effect of this Agreement

          14.   LOAN AGREEMENT.  Debtor acknowledges that the rights and
remedies of Secured Party with respect to the security interest in the
Copyright Collateral granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Loan
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all such rights and remedies are
cumulative.

          15.   NO INCONSISTENT REQUIREMENTS.  Debtor acknowledges that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms
and provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and
Debtor agrees that all

                                      10

<PAGE>

such covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all shall be
performed and satisfied in accordance with their respective terms.

          16.   TERMINATION.  Upon the final payment in full in cash of the
Obligations and the full and final termination of any commitment to extend
any financial accommodations under the Loan Agreement, this Agreement shall
terminate, and Secured Party shall execute and deliver such documents and
instruments and take such further action reasonably requested by Debtor, at
Debtor's expense, as shall be necessary to evidence termination of the
security interests granted by Debtor to Secured Party hereunder.

                            GENERAL CONTINUING GUARANTY

              THIS GENERAL CONTINUING GUARANTY ("Guaranty"), dated as of
March 30, 2000, is executed and delivered by NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES
AUSTRALIA PTY. LTD, a company organized under the laws of Australia, NETWORK
COMPUTING DEVICES (BENELUX) B.V., a company organized under the laws of The
Netherlands, NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES (CANADA), INC., a corporation
organized under the laws of Canada, NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES (FRANCE)
S.A.R.L., a company organized under the laws of France, NETWORK COMPUTING
DEVICES, GMBH, a company organized under the laws of Germany, NCD GRAPHIC
SOFTWARE CORPORATION, an Oregon corporation, NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES (FSC),
INC., a Guam corporation, NCD ACQUISITION CORP., an Indiana corporation,
NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES (UK), LTD., a company organized under the laws of
England, NETWORK COMPUTING DEVICES SCANDINAVIA AB, a company organized under
the laws of Sweden, (individually and collectively, jointly and severally,
"Guarantor"), in favor of FOOTHILL CAPITAL CORPORATION, a California
corporation, ("Guarantied Party"), in light of the following:

              WHEREAS, Borrower and Guarantied Party are, contemporaneously
herewith, entering into the Loan Agreement; and

              WHEREAS, in order to induce Guarantied Party to extend
financial accommodations to Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and in
consideration thereof, and in consideration of any loans or other financial
accommodations heretofore or hereafter extended by Guarantied Party to
Borrower, whether pursuant to the Loan Agreement or otherwise, each Guarantor
has agreed to guaranty the Guarantied Obligations.

              NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, each
Guarantor hereby agrees, in favor of Guarantied Party, as follows:

       1.     Definitions and Construction.

              (a)    DEFINITIONS.  Capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan
Agreement.  The following terms, as used in this Guaranty, shall have the
following meanings:

                     "BORROWER" shall mean Network Computing Devices, Inc., a
       Delaware corporation.

                     "GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS" shall mean, with respect to each
       Guarantor:  (a) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and
       interest (including, any and all interest which, but for the application
       of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such
       amounts) on, any and all premium on, and any and all fees, costs, and
       expenses incurred in connection with or on the Indebtedness owed by
       Borrower to Guarantied Party pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents;
       and

                                       1

<PAGE>

       (b) the due and punctual payment of all other present or future
       Indebtedness owing by Borrower to Guarantied Party.  The foregoing to the
       contrary notwithstanding, the amount of the Guarantied Obligations with
       respect to each Guarantor hereunder shall at all times not exceed the
       maximum amount permissible under the laws of any jurisdiction that are
       applicable to such Guarantor (the "Maximum Lawful Amount"), nor shall
       this Guaranty be deemed to extend or impose any duty, obligation, or
       liability on any Guarantor that would be illegal for such Guarantor to
       undertake, accept, or assume.  If, for any reason, the amount of the
       Guarantied Obligations which, but for the preceding sentence, otherwise
       would be due from any Guarantor hereunder would exceed the Maximum Lawful
       Amount, each of the Guarantors and the Guarantied Party agree that, IPSO
       FACTO, as of the date of this Guaranty, such Guarantor's obligations
       under this Guaranty shall be limited to, and such Guarantor shall be
       liable only for, the payment of the Maximum Lawful Amount applicable to
       such Guarantor.  The limitation set forth in the immediately preceding
       two sentences shall inure to the benefit of each Guarantor, and to each
       Guarantor's officers, directors, and shareholders, as applicable.

                     "GUARANTIED PARTY" shall have the meaning set forth in the
       preamble to this Guaranty.

                     "GUARANTOR" shall have the meaning set forth in the
       preamble to this Guaranty.

                     "GUARANTY" shall have the meaning set forth in the preamble
       to this Guaranty.

                     "INDEBTEDNESS" shall mean any and all obligations,
       indebtedness, or liabilities of any kind or character owed by Borrower to
       Guarantied Party and arising directly or indirectly out of or in
       connection with the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including
       all such obligations, indebtedness, or liabilities, whether for
       principal, interest (including any and all interest which, but for the
       application of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued
       on such amounts), premium, reimbursement obligations, fees, costs,
       expenses (including attorneys fees), or indemnity obligations, whether
       heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred, or created, whether
       voluntarily or involuntarily made, incurred, or created, whether secured
       or unsecured (and if secured, regardless of the nature or extent of the
       security), whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, or
       determined or indeterminate, whether Borrower is liable individually or
       jointly with others, and whether recovery is or hereafter becomes barred
       by any statute of limitations or otherwise becomes unenforceable for any
       reason whatsoever, including any act or failure to act by Guarantied
       Party.

                     "LOAN AGREEMENT" shall mean that certain Loan and Security
       Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, entered into between Borrower
       and Guarantied Party.

                                       2
<PAGE>

              (b)    CONSTRUCTION.  Unless the context of this Guaranty clearly
requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to
the singular include the plural, the part includes the whole, the terms
"include" and "including" are not limiting, and the term "or" has the inclusive
meaning represented by the phrase "and/or."  The words "hereof," "herein,"
"hereby," "hereunder," and other similar terms refer to this Guaranty as a whole
and not to any particular provision of this Guaranty.  Any reference in this
Guaranty to any of the following documents includes any and all alterations,
amendments, restatements, extensions, modifications, renewals, or supplements
thereto or thereof, as applicable: the Loan Agreement; this Guaranty; and the
other Loan Documents.  Neither this Guaranty nor any uncertainty or ambiguity
herein shall be construed or resolved against Guarantied Party or Guarantor,
whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.  On the contrary, this
Guaranty has been reviewed by Guarantor, Guarantied Party, and their respective
counsel, and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary
meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions
of Guarantied Party and Guarantor.

       2.     GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS.  Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guaranties to Guarantied Party, as and for its own debt,
until final and indefeasible payment thereof has been made, (a) the payment
of the Guarantied Obligations, in each case when and as the same shall become
due and payable, whether at maturity, pursuant to a mandatory prepayment
requirement, by acceleration, or otherwise; it being the intent of each
Guarantor that the guaranty set forth herein shall be a guaranty of payment
and not a guaranty of collection; and (b) the punctual and faithful
performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by Borrower of all of the
agreements, conditions, covenants, and obligations of Borrower contained in
the Loan Agreement, and under each of the other Loan Documents.

       3.     CONTINUING GUARANTY.  This Guaranty includes Guarantied
Obligations arising under successive transactions continuing, compromising,
extending, increasing, modifying, releasing, or renewing the Guarantied
Obligations, changing the interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and
conditions thereof, or creating new or additional Guarantied Obligations
after prior Guarantied Obligations have been satisfied in whole or in part.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives any right to
revoke this Guaranty as to future Indebtedness.  If such a revocation is
effective notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, Guarantor acknowledges and
agrees that (a) no such revocation shall be effective until written notice
thereof has been received by Guarantied Party, (b) no such revocation shall
apply to any Guarantied Obligations in existence on such date (including any
subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the
interest rate, payment terms, or other terms and conditions thereof), (c) no
such revocation shall apply to any Guarantied Obligations made or created
after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding
commitment of Guarantied Party in existence on the date of such revocation,
(d) no payment by Guarantor, Borrower, or from any other source, prior to the
date of such revocation shall reduce the maximum obligation of Guarantor
hereunder, and (e) any payment by Borrower or from any source other than
Guarantor subsequent to the date of such revocation shall first be applied to
that portion of the Guarantied Obligations as to

                                       3
<PAGE>

which the revocation is effective and which are not, therefore, guarantied
hereunder, and to the extent so applied shall not reduce the maximum
obligation of Guarantor hereunder.

       4.     PERFORMANCE UNDER THIS GUARANTY.  In the event that Borrower
fails to make any payment of any Guarantied Obligations, on or before the due
date thereof, or if Borrower shall fail to perform, keep, observe, or fulfill
any other obligation referred to in CLAUSE (B) OF SECTION 2 hereof in the
manner provided in the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as
applicable, Guarantor immediately shall cause such payment to be made or each
of such obligations to be performed, kept, observed, or fulfilled.

       5.     PRIMARY OBLIGATIONS.  This Guaranty is a primary and original
obligation of Guarantor, is not merely the creation of a surety relationship,
and is an absolute, unconditional, and continuing guaranty of payment and
performance which shall remain in full force and effect without respect to
future changes in conditions.  Guarantor agrees that it is directly, jointly
and severally with any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations, liable
to Guarantied Party, that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are
independent of the obligations of Borrower or any other guarantor, and that a
separate action may be brought against Guarantor, whether such action is
brought against Borrower or any other guarantor or whether Borrower or any
other guarantor is joined in such action.  Guarantor agrees that its
liability hereunder shall be immediate and shall not be contingent upon the
exercise or enforcement by Guarantied Party of whatever remedies it may have
against Borrower or any other guarantor, or the enforcement of any lien or
realization upon any security Guarantied Party may at any time possess.
Guarantor agrees that any release which may be given by Guarantied Party to
Borrower or any other guarantor shall not release Guarantor.  Guarantor
consents and agrees that Guarantied Party shall be under no obligation to
marshal any property or assets of Borrower or any other guarantor in favor of
Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of the Guarantied
Obligations.

       6.     WAIVERS.

              (a)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
Guarantor hereby waives:  (i) notice of acceptance hereof; (ii) notice of any
loans or other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan
Agreement, or the creation or existence of any Guarantied Obligations; (iii)
notice of the amount of the Guarantied Obligations, subject, however, to
Guarantor's right to make inquiry of Guarantied Party to ascertain the amount
of the Guarantied Obligations at any reasonable time; (iv) notice of any
adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower or of any other fact
that might increase Guarantor's risk hereunder; (v) notice of presentment for
payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instrument among the
Loan Documents; (vi) notice of any unmatured Event of Default or Event of
Default under the Loan Agreement; and (vii) all other notices (except if such
notice is specifically required to be given to Guarantor under this Guaranty
or any other Loan Documents to which Guarantor is a party) and demands to
which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.

                                       4
<PAGE>

              (b)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
Guarantor hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise to require
Guarantied Party to institute suit against Borrower or to exhaust any rights
and remedies which Guarantied Party has or may have against Borrower.  In
this regard, Guarantor agrees that it is bound to the payment of each and all
Guarantied Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, as fully
as if such Guarantied Obligations were directly owing to Guarantied Party by
Guarantor. Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any
disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Guarantied
Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly
paid) of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of
the liability of Borrower in respect thereof.

              (c)    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
Guarantor hereby waives:  (i) any rights to assert against Guarantied Party
any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which
Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against Borrower or any other
party liable to Guarantied Party; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or
claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present
or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of
Guarantied Obligations or any security therefor; (iii) any defense arising by
reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by
Guarantied Party including any defense based upon an election of remedies by
Guarantied Party under the provisions of Sections  580d and 726 of the
California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar law of California or any
other jurisdiction; (iv) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting
Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which
shall defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable
to the Guarantied Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the
operation of such statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor's liability
hereunder.

              (d)    Until such time as all of the Guarantied Obligations
have been fully, finally, and indefeasibly paid in full in cash:  (i)
Guarantor hereby waives and postpones any right of subrogation Guarantor has
or may have as against Borrower with respect to the Guarantied Obligations;
(ii) in addition, Guarantor hereby waives and postpones any right to proceed
against Borrower or any other Person, now or hereafter, for contribution,
indemnity, reimbursement, or any other suretyship rights and claims
(irrespective of whether direct or indirect, liquidated or contingent), with
respect to the Guarantied Obligations; and (iii) in addition, Guarantor also
hereby waives and postpones any right to proceed or to seek recourse against
or with respect to any property or asset of Borrower.  Guarantor hereby
agrees that, in light of the waivers contained in this Section, Guarantor
shall not be deemed to be a "creditor" (as that term is defined in the
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of Borrower, whether for purposes of the
application of Sections 547 or 550 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

              (e)    If any of the Guarantied Obligations at any time are
secured by a mortgage or deed of trust upon real property, Guarantied Party
may elect, in its sole discretion, upon a default with respect to the
Guarantied Obligations, to foreclose such mortgage or deed of trust
judicially or nonjudicially in any manner permitted by law, before or after
enforcing this Guaranty, without diminishing or affecting the liability of
Guarantor

                                       5
<PAGE>

hereunder. Guarantor understands that (a) by virtue of the operation of
California's antideficiency law applicable to nonjudicial foreclosures or any
similar laws of any other jurisdiction, an election by Guarantied Party
nonjudicially to foreclose such a mortgage or deed of trust probably would
have the effect of impairing or destroying rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity of Guarantor against Borrower or
other guarantors or sureties, and (b) absent the waiver given by Guarantor
herein, such an election would estop Guarantied Party from enforcing this
Guaranty against Guarantor. Understanding the foregoing, and understanding
that Guarantor is hereby relinquishing a defense to the enforceability of
this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby waives any right to assert against Guarantied
Party any defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty, whether denominated
"estoppel" or otherwise, based on or arising from an election by Guarantied
Party nonjudicially to foreclose any such mortgage or deed of trust.
Guarantor understands that the effect of the foregoing waiver may be that
Guarantor may have liability hereunder for amounts with respect to which
Guarantor may be left without rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution, or indemnity against Borrower or other guarantors or sureties.
Guarantor also agrees that the "fair market value" provisions of Section 580a
of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar laws of any other
jurisdiction shall have no applicability with respect to the determination of
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty.

              (f)    Without limiting the generality of any other waiver or
other provision set forth in this Guaranty, Guarantor waives all rights and
defenses that Guarantor may have because Borrower's debt is secured by real
property.  This means, among other things:

                     (i)    Guarantied Party may collect from Guarantor
without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged
by Borrower.

                     (ii)   If Guarantied Party forecloses on any real
property collateral pledged by the Borrower:

                            (1)    the amount of the debt may be reduced only by
              the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure
              sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price.

                            (2)    Guarantied Party may collect from Guarantor
              even if Guarantied Party, by foreclosing on the real property
              collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor my have to collect
              from Borrower.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses
Guarantor may have because Borrower's debt is secured by real property.  These
rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses
based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure or any similar laws of any other jurisdiction.

(g)    WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION
SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT SUCH
WAIVER IS PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL BENEFITS OR DEFENSES ARISING DIRECTLY OR

                                       6
<PAGE>

INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE Sections  2799,
2808, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2838, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848,
2849, AND 2850, CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE Sections  580a, 580b,
580c, 580d, AND 726, AND CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 14 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE
OR ANY SIMILAR LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

              (h)     WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR
OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR WAIVES ALL RIGHTS AND
DEFENSES ARISING OUT OF AN ELECTION OF REMEDIES BY GUARANTIED PARTY, EVEN
THOUGH THAT ELECTION OF REMEDIES, SUCH AS A NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITY FOR A GUARANTIED OBLIGATION, HAS DESTROYED GUARANTOR'S
RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION AND REIMBURSEMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER BY THE OPERATION
OF SECTION 580d OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR ANY SIMILAR LAWS
OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION OR OTHERWISE.

       7.     RELEASES.  Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice
to or by Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the obligations of
Guarantor hereunder, Guarantied Party may, by action or inaction, compromise
or settle, extend the period of duration or the time for the payment, or
discharge the performance of, or may refuse to, or otherwise not enforce, or
may, by action or inaction, release all or any one or more parties to, any
one or more of the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents or may grant other indulgences to Borrower in respect
thereof, or may amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time
to time) any one or more of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, or may, by action or inaction, release or substitute any other
guarantor, if any, of the Guarantied Obligations, or may enforce, exchange,
release, or waive, by action or inaction, any security for the Guarantied
Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations, or any
portion thereof.

       8.     NO ELECTION. Guarantied Party shall have the right to seek
recourse against Guarantor to the fullest extent provided for herein and no
election by Guarantied Party to proceed in one form of action or proceeding,
or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of
Guarantied Party's right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding
or against other parties unless Guarantied Party has expressly waived such
right in writing.  Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, no action or proceeding by Guarantied Party under any document or
instrument evidencing the Guarantied Obligations shall serve to diminish the
liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty except to the extent that
Guarantied Party finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible
payment by such action or proceeding.

       9.     INDEFEASIBLE PAYMENT.  The Guarantied Obligations shall not be
considered indefeasibly paid for purposes of this Guaranty unless and until all
payments to Guarantied Party are no longer subject to any right on the part of
any person whomsoever, including Borrower, Borrower as a debtor in possession,
or any trustee (whether appointed under the

                                       7
<PAGE>

Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of Borrower's assets to invalidate or set aside
such payments or to seek to recoup the amount of such payments or any portion
thereof, or to declare same to be fraudulent or preferential.  In the event
that, for any reason, all or any portion of such payments to Guarantied Party
is set aside or restored, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, after the
making thereof, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied
thereby shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said
payment or payments had not been made and Guarantor shall be liable for the
full amount Guarantied Party is required to repay plus any and all costs and
expenses (including attorneys fees) paid by Guarantied Party in connection
therewith.

       10.    FINANCIAL CONDITION OF BORROWER.  Guarantor represents and
warrants to Guarantied Party that it is currently informed of the financial
condition of Borrower and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry
would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied
Obligations.  Guarantor further represents and warrants to Guarantied Party
that it has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Guarantor hereby covenants that it
will continue to keep itself informed of Borrower's financial condition, the
financial condition of other guarantors, if any, and of all other
circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the
Guarantied Obligations.

       11.    SUBORDINATION.  Guarantor hereby agrees that any and all
present and future indebtedness of Borrower owing to Guarantor is postponed
in favor of and subordinated to payment, in full, in cash, of the Guarantied
Obligations. In this regard, except to the extent expressly permitted by the
Loan Agreement, no payment of any kind whatsoever shall be made with respect
to such indebtedness until the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full.

       12.    PAYMENTS; APPLICATION.  All payments to be made hereunder by
Guarantor shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at
the time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall
be made without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset.  All
payments made by Guarantor hereunder shall be applied as follows:  first, to
all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by
Guarantied Party in enforcing this Guaranty or in collecting the Guarantied
Obligations; second, to all accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, and
fees owing to Guarantied Party constituting Guarantied Obligations; and
third, to the balance of the Guarantied Obligations.

       13.    ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS.  Guarantor agrees to pay, on demand,
all reasonable attorneys fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses
which may be incurred by Guarantied Party in the enforcement of this Guaranty
or in any way arising out of, or consequential to the protection, assertion,
or enforcement of the Guarantied Obligations (or any security therefor),
irrespective of whether suit is brought.

       14.    NOTICES.  Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Guaranty,
any notice or other communication relating to this Guaranty or any other
agreement entered into in

Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Document is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy, but each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition
to any and every other remedy given under this Guaranty, under the Loan
Agreement, or any other Loan Document, and those provided by law.  No delay
or omission by Guarantied Party to exercise any right

                                       9
<PAGE>

under this Guaranty shall impair any such right nor be construed to be a
waiver thereof.  No failure on the part of Guarantied Party to exercise, and
no delay in exercising, any right under this Guaranty shall operate as a

this Guaranty preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right.

or consent shall be effective only to the extent specified therein and for
the specific purpose for which given.  No course of dealing and no delay or
waiver of any right or default under this Guaranty shall be deemed a waiver
of any other, similar or dissimilar, right or default or otherwise prejudice
the rights and remedies hereunder.

       18.    SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Guaranty shall be binding upon
Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of
the successors and assigns of Guarantied Party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no
Guarantor shall assign this Guaranty or delegate any of its duties hereunder
without Guarantied Party's prior written consent and any unconsented to
assignment shall be absolutely void.  In the event of any assignment or other
transfer of rights by Guarantied Party, the rights and benefits herein

          4.   AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

               4.1    SCHEDULES OF ACCOUNTS.

          With such regularity as Foothill shall require, provide Foothill
with schedules describing all of such Guarantor's Accounts.  Foothill's

Equipment in good operating condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear
excepted), and make all necessary replacements thereto so that the value and
operating efficiency thereof shall at all times be maintained and preserved.
Such Guarantor shall not permit any item of such Guarantor's Equipment to
become a fixture to real estate or an accession to other property, and such
Equipment is now and shall at all times remain personal property.

               4.5    TAXES.  All assessments and taxes, whether real,
personal, or otherwise, due or payable by, or imposed, levied, or assessed
against such Guarantor or any of its property have been paid, and shall

attesting to the payment or deposit thereof.  Such Guarantor will make timely
payment or deposit of all tax payments and withholding taxes required of it
by applicable laws, and will, upon request, furnish Foothill with proof

payments or deposits, other than assessments or taxes that are the subject of
a Permitted Protest.

satisfactory to Foothill.  All such policies of insurance (except those of
public liability and property damage) shall contain a 438BFU lender's loss
payable endorsement, or an equivalent endorsement in a form satisfactory to
Foothill, showing Foothill as a loss payee thereof as its interest may
appear, shall contain a waiver of warranties, and shall specify that the
insurer must give at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Foothill
before canceling its policy for any reason.  Such Guarantor shall deliver to
Foothill certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of the
payment of all premiums therefor.  All proceeds payable under any such policy
shall be payable to Foothill to be applied on account of the Guarantied
Obligations.

or profits therefrom, except for Permitted Liens (including liens that are
replacements of Permitted Liens to the extent that the original indebtedness
is refinanced under Section 7.1(d) of the Loan Agreement and so long as the
replacement liens secure only those assets or property that secured the
original indebtedness).

               5.2    RESTRICTIONS ON FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES.  Enter into any
acquisition, merger, consolidation, reorganization, or recapitalization, or
reclassify its capital stock, or liquidate, wind up, or dissolve itself (or
suffer any liquidation or dissolution), or convey, sell, assign, lease,
transfer, or otherwise dispose of, in one transaction or a series of
transactions, all or any substantial part of its business, property, or
assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or acquire by purchase or
otherwise all or substantially all of the properties, assets, stock, or other
evidence of beneficial ownership of any Person.

          7.   FOOTHILL'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

               7.1    RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence, and during
the continuation, of an Event of Default Foothill may, at its election,
without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the
following, all of which are authorized by each Guarantor:

                      (a)     Proceed directly and at once, without notice,
against each Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount or any portion
of the Guarantied Obligations, without first proceeding against Borrower, any
other Guarantor, or against any security or collateral for the Guarantied
Obligations.

                      (b)     Without notice to any Guarantor and regardless
of the acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof,
appropriate and apply toward the payment of the Guarantied Obligations (i)
any indebtedness due or to become due from Foothill to any Guarantor and (ii)
any moneys, credits or other property belonging to any Guarantor at any time
held by or coming into the possession of Foothill.

                      (c)     May exercise in respect of the Collateral, in
addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein and the Guaranty or
otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies available to it at law
(including those of a secured party under the Code) or in equity.

                      (d)     Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly
with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Foothill considers
advisable, and in such cases, Foothill will credit Borrower's loan account
with only the net amounts received by Foothill in payment of such disputed
Accounts after deducting all Foothill Expenses incurred or expended in
connection therewith;

                      (e)     Cause each Guarantor to hold all returned
Inventory in trust for Foothill, segregate all returned Inventory from all
other property of such Guarantor or in such Guarantor's possession and
conspicuously label said returned Inventory as the property of Foothill;

                                      11

<PAGE>

                      (f)     Without notice or demand, make such payments
and do such acts as Foothill considers necessary or reasonable to protect its
security interest in the Collateral.  Each Guarantor agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Foothill so requires, and to make the Collateral available to
Foothill as Foothill may designate.  Each Guarantor authorizes Foothill to
enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain
possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase,
contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Foothill's
determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to
pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.  With respect to any of
any Guarantor's owned premises, such Guarantor hereby grants Foothill a
license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same,
without charge, for up to one hundred twenty (120) days in order to exercise
any of Foothill's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or
otherwise;

                      (g)     Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish,
maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the
manner provided for herein) the Collateral.  Foothill is hereby granted a
license or other right to use, without charge, each Guarantor's labels,
patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names,
trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a
similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of
advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and each Guarantor's rights
under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Foothill's
benefit;

                      (h)     Sell all or any part of the Collateral at
either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or
transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places
(including on any Guarantor's premises) as Foothill determines is
commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present
at any such sale.  Foothill shall have the right upon any such public sale or
sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or
sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of
any right or equity of redemption in any Guarantor, which right or equity is
hereby waived or released to the extent permitted by law;

                      (i)     By an instrument in writing, appoint a receiver
(which term shall include a receiver and manager) of all or any part of the
Collateral and may remove or replace such receiver from time to time or may
institute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of such receiver;

                      (j)     Require each Guarantor to establish a lockbox
or other restricted account satisfactory to Foothill for the collection of
such Guarantor's Accounts, General Intangibles, or Negotiable Collateral;

                      (k)     Notify customers or Account Debtors of each
Guarantor that such Guarantor's Accounts, General Intangibles, or Negotiable
Collateral have been assigned to Foothill or that Foothill has a security
interest therein;

                      (l)     Collect each Guarantor's Accounts, General
Intangibles, and Negotiable Collateral directly, and charge the collection
costs and expenses as Foothill

                                      12

<PAGE>

Expenses; but, unless and until Foothill does so or gives any Guarantor other
written instructions, such Guarantor shall collect all of such Guarantor's
Accounts, General Intangibles, and Negotiable Collateral for Foothill,
receive in trust all payments thereon as Foothill's trustee, and immediately
deliver said payments to Foothill in their original form as received from
such Account Debtor;

                      (m)     Any deficiency which exists after disposition
of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by each
Guarantor up to the maximum amount, if any, of such Guarantor's liability
under the Guaranty. Any excess will be returned to Guarantors, without
interest and subject to the rights of third parties, by Foothill.

Except as required by law, Foothill may take any or all of the foregoing
action without demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any
kind to or upon any Guarantor or any other person.

               7.2    REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.  Foothill's rights and remedies
under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be
cumulative.  Foothill shall have all other rights and remedies not
inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity.  No
exercise by Foothill of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and
no waiver by Foothill of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing
waiver. No delay by Foothill shall constitute a waiver, election, or
acquiescence by it.

          8.   TAXES AND EXPENSES REGARDING THE COLLATERAL.

          If any Guarantor fails to pay any monies (whether taxes,
assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of licensed or leased
properties or assets, royalties, rents, or other amounts payable under such
licenses or leases) due to third Persons, or fails to make any deposits or
furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as required under the
terms of this Agreement, then, to the extent that Foothill determines that
such failure by any such Guarantor could result in a Material adverse effect
on Foothill's interests in the collateral, in its discretion, without prior
notice to any Guarantor,  Foothill may do any or all of the following:  (a)
make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves in
Borrower's Loan Account as Foothill deems necessary to protect Foothill from
the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance
policies insuring Guarantor's ownership and use of the Collateral and take
any action with respect to such policies as Foothill deems prudent.  Any such
amounts paid or deposited by Foothill shall constitute Foothill Expenses.
Any such payments made by Foothill shall not constitute an agreement by
Foothill to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Foothill of
any Event of Default under this Agreement.  Foothill need not inquire as to,
or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, or Lien and the receipt of
the usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be conclusive
evidence that the same was validly due and owing.

          9.   WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

               9.1    DEMAND; PROTEST; ETC.  To the extent permitted by law,
each of the Guarantors waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of
default or dishonor, notice

                                      13

<PAGE>

of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity,
release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts,
documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by
Foothill on which any Guarantor may in any way be liable.

               9.2    FOOTHILL'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL.  So long as
Foothill complies with its obligations, if any, under Section 9207 of the
Code, Foothill shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for:
(a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto
occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any
diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier,
warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person.  All risk of loss,
damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by the Guarantors.

               9.3    INDEMNIFICATION.  Each Guarantor agrees to defend,
indemnify, save, and hold Foothill and its officers, employees, and agents
harmless against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities
claimed or asserted by any other Person, and (b) all losses (including
attorneys fees and disbursements) in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by
Foothill as a result of or in any way arising out of, following, or
consequential to transactions with Borrower or any Guarantor, whether under
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise.  This provision shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.

               9.4    WAIVERS.

                      (a)     To the maximum extent permitted by law, each of
the Guarantors hereby waives:  (i) notice of acceptance hereof; (ii) notice
of any loans or other financial accommodations made or extended under the
Loan Agreement, or the creation or existence of any Obligations; (iii) notice
of the amount of the Obligations, subject, however, each Guarantor's right to
make inquiry of Foothill to ascertain the amount of the Obligations at any
reasonable time; (iv) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition
of Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such Guarantors' risk
hereunder; (v) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice
thereof as to any instrument among the Loan Documents; (vi) notice of any
unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement; and
(vii) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be
given to such Guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) and
demands to which such Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.

                      (b)     To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise
to require Foothill to institute suit against Borrower or to exhaust any
rights and remedies which Foothill has or may have against Borrower.  Each of
the Guarantors further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability
or other defense (other than the defense that the Obligations shall have been
fully and finally indefeasibly paid) of Borrower or by reason of the
cessation from any cause (other than that the Obligations shall have been
fully and finally indefeasibly paid) whatsoever of the liability of Borrower
in respect thereof.

                                      14

<PAGE>

                      (c)     To the maximum extent permitted by law, each of
the Guarantors hereby waives:  (i) any rights to assert against Foothill any
defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which any
Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against Borrower or any other
party liable to Foothill on account of or with respect to the Obligations;
(ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature,
arising directly or indirectly from the present or future sufficiency,
validity, or enforceability of the Obligations; (iii) any defense arising by
reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Foothill
including, to the extent applicable, the provisions of Sections  580d and 726
of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar law of California
or any other jurisdiction; (iv) the benefit of any statute of limitations
affecting such Guarantor's liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof.

                      (d)     To the maximum extent permitted by law each
Guarantor hereby waives any right of subrogation such Guarantor has or may
have as against Borrower with respect to the Obligations.  In addition, to
the maximum extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any
right to proceed against Borrower, now or hereafter, for contribution,
indemnity, reimbursement, or any other suretyship rights and claims
(irrespective of whether direct or indirect, liquidated or contingent), with
respect to the Obligations.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, each of
the Guarantors also hereby waives any right to proceed or to seek recourse
against or with respect to any property or asset of Borrower.  Each of the
Guarantors hereby agrees that, in light of the waivers contained in this
Section, none of the Guarantors shall be deemed to be a "creditor" (as that
term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of Borrower, whether for
purposes of the application of Sections 547 or 550 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

                      (e)     If any of the Secured Obligations at any time
are secured by a mortgage or deed of trust upon real property, Foothill may
elect, in its sole discretion, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, to foreclose such mortgage or deed of trust
judicially or nonjudicially in any manner permitted by law, before or after
enforcing this Agreement, without diminishing or affecting the liability of
the Guarantors hereunder. Each of the Guarantors understands that (a) by
virtue of the operation of California's antideficiency law applicable to
nonjudicial foreclosures, an election by Foothill nonjudicially to foreclose
such a mortgage or deed of trust probably would have the effect of impairing
or destroying rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or
indemnity of each of the Guarantors against Borrower or guarantors or
sureties, and (b) absent the waiver given by the Guarantors herein, such an
election might estop Foothill from enforcing this Agreement against the
Guarantors. Understanding the foregoing, and understanding that each of the
Guarantors is hereby relinquishing a defense to the enforceability of this
Agreement, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any right to assert against
Foothill any defense to the enforcement of this Agreement, whether
denominated "estoppel" or otherwise, based on or arising from an election by
Foothill nonjudicially to foreclose any such mortgage or deed of trust. Each
of the Guarantors understands that the effect of the foregoing waiver may be
that such Guarantors may have liability hereunder for amounts with respect
to which such Guarantor may be left without rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity against Borrower or guarantors or
sureties. Each

                                      15

<PAGE>

of the Guarantors also agrees that the "fair market value" provisions of
Section 580a of the California Code of Civil Procedure shall have no
applicability with respect to the determination of such Guarantor's liability
under this Agreement.

                      (f)     Without limiting the generality of any other
waiver or other provision set forth in this Guaranty, Guarantor waives all
rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because Debtor's debt is secured
by real property.  This means, among other things:

                      (i)     Guarantied Party may collect from Guarantor
without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged
by Debtor.

                      (ii)    If Guarantied Party forecloses on any real
property collateral pledged by the Debtor:

                      (1)     the amount of the debt may be reduced only by
the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if
the collateral is worth more than the sale price.

                      (2)     Guarantied Party may collect from Guarantor
even if Guarantied Party, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has
destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Debtor.

                      This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any
rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Debtor's debt is secured by
real property. These rights and defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b,
580d, or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

                      (g)     WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER
WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE GUARANTORS
HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT SUCH WAIVER IS PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND
ALL DEFENSES ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA
CIVIL CODE Sections 2808, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2838, 2839, 2845,
2848, 2849, AND 2850, TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE, CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE Sections 580a, 580b, 580c, 580d, AND 726, AND, TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE, CHAPTER 2 OF TITLE 14 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE.

                      (h)      WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER
WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE GUARANTORS
HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS AND DEFENSES ARISING OUT OF AN ELECTION OF REMEDIES BY
FOOTHILL, EVEN THOUGH THAT ELECTION OF REMEDIES, SUCH AS A NONJUDICIAL
FORECLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO SECURITY FOR A SECURED OBLIGATION, HAS DESTROYED
GUARANTOR'S RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION AND REIMBURSEMENT AGAINST

                                      16

<PAGE>

THE BORROWER BY THE OPERATION OF SECTION 580d OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
OR OTHERWISE.

          10.  NOTICES.

               All notices and other communications hereunder shall be made
in accordance with the Guaranty.

          11.  CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.

               THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE CONSTRUCTION,
INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO
WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO SHALL BE
DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THE GUARANTORS AND FOOTHILL AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS
OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TRIED AND
LITIGATED ONLY IN THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF LOS
ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR, AT THE SOLE OPTION OF FOOTHILL, IN ANY OTHER
COURT IN WHICH FOOTHILL SHALL INITIATE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PROCEEDINGS AND
WHICH HAS SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER IN CONTROVERSY. EACH
OF THE GUARANTORS AND FOOTHILL EACH WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EACH MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON
CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 13. THE GUARANTORS AND FOOTHILL HEREBY WAIVE
THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED
UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREIN, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND
ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH OF THE GUARANTORS AND
FOOTHILL REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND EACH KNOWINGLY AND
VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL
COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED
AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

          12.  DESTRUCTION OF THE GUARANTORS' DOCUMENTS.

               All documents, schedules, invoices, agings, or other papers
delivered to Foothill may be destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Foothill 4
months after they are delivered to or received by Foothill, unless any
Guarantor requests, in writing, the return of said documents, schedules, or
other papers and makes arrangements, at such Guarantor's expense, for their
return.

          13.  GENERAL PROVISIONS.

               13.1   EFFECTIVENESS.  This Agreement shall be binding and
deemed effective when executed by each of the Guarantors and accepted and
executed by Foothill.

               13.2   SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall bind and
inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the
parties; provided, however, that the Guarantors may not assign this Agreement
or any rights or duties hereunder without Foothill's prior written consent
and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void. No consent to an
assignment by Foothill shall release any of the Guarantors from its
Guarantied Obligations. Foothill may assign this Agreement and its rights and
duties hereunder and no consent or approval by the Guarantors is required in
connection with any such assignment. Foothill reserves the right to sell,
assign, transfer, negotiate, or grant participations in all or any part of,
or any interest in Foothill's rights and benefits hereunder. In connection
with any such assignment or participation, Foothill may disclose all
documents and information which Foothill now or hereafter may have relating
to any of the Guarantors or any of the Guarantors' business. To the extent
that Foothill assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to a third Person,
Foothill thereafter shall be released from such assigned obligations to the
Guarantors and such assignment shall effect a novation among the Guarantors
and such third Person.

               13.3   SECTION HEADINGS.  Headings and numbers have been set

uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against
Foothill or the Guarantors, whether under any rule of construction or
otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties
and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of
the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of all
parties hereto.

               13.5   SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS.  Each provision of this
Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for
the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

               13.6   AMENDMENTS IN WRITING.  This Agreement can only be
amended by a writing signed by both Foothill and each of the Guarantors.

               13.7   COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.  This Agreement
may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on
separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be
deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall
constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective
as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party
delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also
shall deliver an original

                                      18

executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original
executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and
binding effect of this Agreement.

               13.8   REVIVAL AND REINSTATEMENT OF OBLIGATIONS.  If the
incurrence or payment of the Secured Obligations by the Guarantors or the
transfer by any Guarantor to Foothill of any property of such Guarantor
should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under
any state or federal law relating to creditors' rights, including provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, and
other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property
(collectively, a "Voidable Transfer"), and if Foothill is required to repay
or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do
so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable
Transfer, or the amount thereof that Foothill is required or elects to repay
or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of
Foothill related thereto, the liability of each of the Guarantors
automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as
though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

                        [SIGNATURE PAGES TO FOLLOW.]

                              SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT
                                   (INTERCOMPANY)

              THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), is entered
into as of March [ ], 2000, among Foothill Capital Corporation, a California
corporation ("Foothill") and the undersigned Subsidiaries of Network
Computing Devices, Inc., a Delaware corporation (individually and
collectively, the "Borrower Subsidiaries"), with reference to the following
recitals of fact:

              WHEREAS, Network Computing Devices, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Borrower") and Foothill have entered into that certain Loan and
Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended, modified,
renewed, extended, or replaced from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"),
pursuant to which Foothill has agreed to make certain loans to Borrower;

              WHEREAS, the Borrower Subsidiaries have made or hereafter may
make loans and other advances to Borrower or Borrower may otherwise incur
indebtedness to the Borrower Subsidiaries; and

              WHEREAS, the Borrower Subsidiaries have agreed to the
subordination of such indebtedness to it, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Agreement.

              NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises,
covenants, conditions, representations, and warranties set forth herein and
for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

SECTION 1     DEFINITIONS; INTERPRETATION.

              (a)    TERMS DEFINED IN LOAN AGREEMENT.  All capitalized terms
used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Loan Agreement.

              (b)    CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS.  As used in this Agreement, the
following terms shall have the following meanings:

              "Dollars" means and refers to United States of America dollars
or such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of

the United States of America.

              "Insolvency Event" has the meaning set forth in SECTION 3.

              "Senior Debt" shall mean all indebtedness and liabilities
(including all principal, interest (including interest accruing after the
commencement of a Proceeding whether or not such interest is allowed as a
claim therein), default interest, fees, charges, and collection expenses) now
or hereafter owed by Borrower under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan
Document.

<PAGE>

              "Subordinated Debt" means all indebtedness, liabilities and
other monetary obligations of Borrower owing to the Borrower Subsidiaries,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to become due,

Debt, as a result of any collection, sale or other disposition of collateral,
or by setoff, exchange or in any other manner, for or on account of the
Subordinated Debt.

and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

SECTION 2     SUBORDINATION TO PAYMENT OF SENIOR DEBT.

              All payments on account of the Subordinated Debt shall be
subject, subordinate and junior, in right of payment and exercise of
remedies, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior
payment, in full, in cash (or other consideration acceptable to Foothill in
its sole discretion and agreed to by Foothill) of the Senior Debt.

SECTION 3     SUBORDINATION UPON ANY DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS OF BORROWER.

              In the event of any payment or distribution of assets or
properties of Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, property,
or securities, upon the dissolution, winding up, or total or partial
liquidation or reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, or similar
proceeding relating to Borrower or its property, whether voluntary or
involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, arrangement or
similar proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
upon any other marshaling or composition of the assets and liabilities of
Borrower, or otherwise (such events, collectively, the "Insolvency Events"):
(i) all amounts

                                       2
<PAGE>

owing on account of the Senior Debt shall first be paid, in full, in cash, or
payment provided for in cash (or other consideration acceptable to Foothill
in its sole discretion and agreed to by Foothill), before any Subordinated
Debt Payment is made; and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any
Subordinated Debt Payment to which any Borrower Subsidiary would be entitled
except for the provisions hereof, shall, in the event of any such Insolvency
Event, be paid or delivered by the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee
for the benefit of creditors, or other liquidating agent making such payment
or distribution directly to Foothill for application to the payment of the
Senior Debt in accordance with clause (i), after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to Foothill in
respect of such Senior Debt.

SECTION 4     PAYMENTS ON SUBORDINATED DEBT.

              (a)    PERMITTED PAYMENTS.  So long as no Event of Default or
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom,
Borrower may make, and the Borrower Subsidiaries shall be entitled to
receive, Subordinated Debt Payments made in the ordinary course of business
solely to the extent permitted in the Loan Agreement.

              (b)    PROHIBITION ON PAYMENTS.  Notwithstanding the provisions
of SUBSECTION 4(a) above, (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuation
of any Default or Event of Default, or (ii) if a Default or Event of Default
would result therefrom then, in either case, no Subordinated Debt Payment
shall be made or agreed to be made by Borrower or accepted by any Borrower
Subsidiary on account of the principal of, premium or interest on, or any
other amounts in respect of the Subordinated Debt, and Borrower shall not
segregate or hold in trust money for any such payment or distribution.

SECTION 5     SUBORDINATION OF REMEDIES.

              As long as any Senior Debt shall remain outstanding and unpaid,
no Borrower Subsidiary shall, without the prior written consent of Foothill:

              (i)    accelerate, make demand, or otherwise make due and
payable prior to the original stated maturity thereof any Subordinated Debt
or bring suit or institute any other actions or proceedings to enforce its
rights or interests in respect of the obligations of Borrower owing to such
Borrower Subsidiary;

              (ii)   exercise any rights under or with respect to guaranties
of the Subordinated Debt, if any;

              (iii)  exercise any rights to setoffs and counterclaims in
respect of any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations of Borrower to
Borrower against any of the Subordinated Debt; or

              (iv)   commence, or cause to be commenced, or join with any
creditor other than Foothill in commencing, any bankruptcy, insolvency or
receivership proceeding against Borrower.

                                       3

SECTION 6     PAYMENT OVER TO FOOTHILL.

              Notwithstanding the provisions of SECTIONS 3, 4, AND 5, in the
event that any Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in contravention
of such SECTIONS 3, 4, AND 5 by any Borrower Subsidiary before all Senior
Debt is paid, in full, in cash (or other consideration acceptable to Foothill
in its sole discretion and agreed to by Foothill), such Subordinated Debt
Payments shall be held in trust for the benefit of Foothill and shall be paid
over or delivered to Foothill for application to the payment, in full, in
cash (or other consideration acceptable to Foothill in its sole discretion
and agreed to by Foothill) of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent
necessary to give effect to such SECTIONS 3, 4, AND 5, after giving effect to
any concurrent payments or distributions to Foothill in respect of the Senior
Debt.

SECTION 7     AUTHORIZATION TO FOOTHILL.

              If, while any Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any Insolvency
Event shall occur relating to Borrower or its property:  (i) Foothill is
hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of any one or more
Borrower Subsidiaries or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand,
sue for, collect, and receive every payment or distribution in respect of the
Subordinated Debt and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs
of claim and take such other action (including voting the Subordinated Debt)
as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any
of the rights or interests of Foothill; and (ii) each Borrower Subsidiary
shall promptly take such action as Foothill reasonably may request (A) to
collect the Subordinated Debt for the account of Foothill and to file
appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt,
(B) to execute and deliver to Foothill such powers of attorney, assignments,
and other instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all
claims with respect to the Subordinated Debt, and (C) to collect and receive
any and all Subordinated Debt Payments to the extent permitted by applicable
law.

SECTION 8     CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF BORROWER.

              (a)    NO BENEFITS.  Each Borrower Subsidiary understands that
there may be various agreements among Foothill and Borrower evidencing and
governing the Senior Debt, and such Borrower Subsidiary acknowledges and
agrees that such agreements are not intended to confer any benefits on such
Borrower Subsidiary and that Foothill shall have no obligation to such
Borrower Subsidiary or any other Person to exercise any rights, enforce any
remedies, or take any actions which may be available to them under such
agreements.

              (b)    NO INTERFERENCE.  Each Borrower Subsidiary acknowledges
that Borrower has granted Foothill a security interest in all of Borrower's
assets, and agrees that, so long as such Borrower Subsidiary holds
Subordinated Debt, such Borrower Subsidiary will not interfere with or in any
manner oppose a disposition of any Collateral by Foothill in accordance with
the terms of the agreements governing such grants and applicable law.

              (c)    RELIANCE BY FOOTHILL.  Each Borrower Subsidiary
acknowledges and agrees that Foothill will have relied upon and will continue to
rely upon the subordination provisions

                                       4

provided for herein and the other provisions hereof in entering into the Loan
Documents and making or making the Advances thereunder.

              (d)    WAIVERS.  Each Borrower Subsidiary waives any and all
notice of the incurrence of the Senior Debt or any part thereof and any right
to require marshaling of assets.

              (e)    OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER SUBSIDIARIES NOT AFFECTED.  Each
Borrower Subsidiary agrees that at any time and from time to time, without
notice to or the consent of such Borrower Subsidiary, without incurring
responsibility to such Borrower Subsidiary, and without impairing or
releasing the subordination provided for herein or otherwise impairing the
rights of Foothill hereunder: (i) the time for Borrower's performance of or
compliance with any of its agreements contained in the Loan Documents may be
extended or such performance or compliance may be waived by Foothill; (ii)
the agreements of Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents may from time
to time be modified by Borrower and Foothill for the purpose of adding any
requirements thereto or changing in any manner the rights and obligations of
Borrower or Foothill thereunder; (iii) the manner, place or terms for payment
of Senior Debt or any portion thereof may be altered or the terms for payment
extended, or the Senior Debt may be renewed in whole or in part; (iv) the
maturity of the Senior Debt may be accelerated in accordance with the terms
of any present or future agreement by Borrower and Foothill; (v) any
Collateral may be sold, exchanged, released or substituted in accordance with
the Loan Documents and any Lien in favor of Foothill may be terminated,
subordinated, or fail to be perfected or become unperfected; (vi) any Person
liable in any manner for Senior Debt may be discharged, released, or
substituted; and (vii) all other rights against Borrower, any other Person,
or with respect to any Collateral may be exercised (or Foothill may waive or
refrain from exercising such rights) in accordance with the Loan Documents.

              (f)    RIGHTS OF FOOTHILL NOT TO BE IMPAIRED.  No right of
Foothill to enforce the subordination provided for herein or to exercise its
other rights hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired
by any act or failure to act by Borrower hereunder or under or in connection
with the other Loan Documents or by any noncompliance by Borrower with the
terms and provisions and covenants herein or in any other Loan Document,
regardless of any knowledge thereof Foothill may have or otherwise be charged
with.

              (g)    FINANCIAL CONDITION OF BORROWER.  No Borrower Subsidiary
shall have any right to require Foothill to obtain or disclose any
information with respect to:  (i) the financial condition or character of
Borrower or the ability of Borrower to pay and perform the Senior Debt; (ii)
the Senior Debt; (iii) the Collateral or other security for any or all of the
Senior Debt; (iv) the existence or nonexistence of any guarantees of, or any
other subordination agreements with respect to, all or any part of the Senior
Debt; (v) any action or inaction on the part of Foothill or any other Person;
or (vi) any other matter, except as otherwise expressly required by any
provision of any Loan Document or law (except to the extent that any
otherwise applicable requirement of law has been waived by such Borrower
Subsidiary pursuant to a legally enforceable waiver).

                                       5

              (h)    ACQUISITION OF LIENS OR GUARANTIES.  Unless otherwise
expressly permitted under the Loan Documents, no Borrower Subsidiary shall,
without the prior consent of Foothill, acquire any right or interest in or to
any Collateral or accept any guaranties for the Subordinated Debt.

SECTION 9     SUBROGATION.

              (a)    SUBROGATION.  Until the payment and performance in full
of all Senior Debt, each Borrower Subsidiary shall not have, and shall not
directly or indirectly exercise, any rights that it may acquire by way of
subrogation under this Agreement, by any payment or distribution to Foothill
hereunder or otherwise.

              (b)    PAYMENTS OVER TO THE BORROWER SUBSIDIARIES.  If any
payment or distribution to which the Borrower Subsidiaries would otherwise
have been entitled but for the provisions of SECTION 3, 4, OR 5 shall have
been applied pursuant to the provisions of SECTION 3, 4, OR 5 to the payment
of all amounts payable under the Senior Debt, the Borrower Subsidiaries shall
be entitled to receive from Foothill any payments or distributions received
by Foothill in excess of the amount sufficient to pay in full all amounts
payable under or in respect of the Senior Debt.  If any such excess payment
is made to Foothill, Foothill shall promptly remit such excess to the
Borrower Subsidiaries and until so remitted shall hold such excess payment
for the benefit of the Borrower Subsidiaries.  Each Borrower Subsidiary
hereby agrees that the remittance by Foothill of such excess to any Borrower
Subsidiary shall be deemed a remittance for the benefit of all the Borrower
Subsidiaries.

SECTION 10    CONTINUING AGREEMENT; REINSTATEMENT.

              (a)    CONTINUING AGREEMENT.  This Agreement is a continuing
agreement of subordination and shall continue in effect and be binding upon
the Borrower Subsidiaries until payment and performance in full of the Senior
Debt. The subordinations, agreements, and priorities set forth herein shall
remain in full force and effect regardless of whether any party hereto in the
future seeks to rescind, amend, terminate, or reform, by litigation or
otherwise, its respective agreements with Borrower.

              (b)    REINSTATEMENT.  This Agreement shall continue to be
effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any
payment of the Senior Debt by or on behalf of Borrower shall be rescinded or
must otherwise be restored by Foothill, whether as a result of an Insolvency
Event or otherwise.

SECTION 11    TRANSFER OF SUBORDINATED DEBT.

              No Borrower Subsidiary may assign or transfer its rights and
obligations in respect of the Subordinated Debt or any interest in the
Subordinated Debt without the prior written consent of Foothill (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and any such transferee or
assignee, as a condition to acquiring  an interest in the Subordinated Debt
shall agree to be bound hereby, in form reasonably satisfactory to Foothill.

SECTION 12    OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER NOT AFFECTED.

              The provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the
purpose of defining the relative rights against Borrower of the Borrower
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Foothill, on the other hand.  Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall (i) impair, as between Borrower and the
Borrower Subsidiaries, the obligation of Borrower to pay its obligations with
respect to the Subordinated Debt as and when the same shall become due and
payable in accordance with the terms thereof, or (ii) otherwise affect the
relative rights against Borrower of the Borrower Subsidiaries, on the one
hand, and the creditors of Borrower (other than Foothill), on the other hand.

SECTION 13    FURTHER ASSURANCES AND ADDITIONAL ACTS.

              (a)    ENDORSEMENT OF SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENTS.  At the
request of Foothill, all documents and instruments evidencing any of the
Subordinated Debt shall be endorsed with a legend noting that such documents
and instruments are subject to this Agreement, and the Borrower Subsidiaries
shall promptly deliver to Foothill evidence of the same.

              (b)    FURTHER ASSURANCES AND ADDITIONAL ACTS.  Each of the
Borrower Subsidiaries and Borrower shall execute, acknowledge, deliver, file,
notarize and register at its own reasonable expense all such further
agreements, instruments, certificates, financing statements, termination
statements, documents and assurances, and perform such acts as Foothill
reasonably shall deem necessary or appropriate to effectuate the purposes of
this Agreement, and promptly provide Foothill with evidence of the foregoing
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Foothill.

SECTION 15    NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.

              No failure on the part of Foothill to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder shall operate as
a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right,
remedy, power, or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or

remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights,
remedies, powers, and privileges that may otherwise be available to Foothill.

SECTION 22    ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

                                       9
<PAGE>

              (a)    ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement of Borrower, Foothill, and the Borrower Subsidiaries with respect
to the matters set forth herein and supersedes any prior agreements,
commitments, drafts, communications, discussions, and understandings, oral or
written, with respect thereto.

              (b)    AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.  No amendment to any provision
of this Agreement shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Borrower, the Borrower Subsidiaries, and Foothill; and

effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Foothill.  Any
such amendment, waiver, or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

SECTION 23    CONFLICTS WITH SUBORDINATED DEBT DOCUMENTS.

              In case of any conflict or inconsistency between any terms of
this Agreement, on the one hand, and any of the Subordinated Debt Documents,
on the other hand, then the terms of this Agreement shall control.

SECTION 24    SEVERABILITY.

              Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under all applicable
laws and regulations.  If, however, any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under any such law or regulation in any
jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to
conform to the minimum requirements of such law or regulation, or, if for any
reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only
to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without affecting the
remaining provisions of this Agreement or the validity or effectiveness of
such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 25    INTERPRETATION.

              This Agreement is the result of negotiations between, and has
been reviewed by counsel to, Foothill, the Borrower Subsidiaries, and
Borrower and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly, this
Agreement shall not be construed against Foothill merely because of
Foothill's involvement in the preparation hereof.

SECTION 26    COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.

              This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts
and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when
so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed
counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective
as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party
delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also
shall deliver an original executed

                                       10
<PAGE>

counterpart of this Agreement, but the failure to deliver an original
executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and
binding effect of this Agreement.

SECTION 27    TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

              Upon payment and performance in full of the Senior Debt, this
Agreement shall terminate and Foothill shall promptly execute and deliver to
Borrower and the Borrower Subsidiaries (in each case, at Borrower's expense)
such documents and instruments as shall be necessary to evidence such
termination; provided, however, that the obligations of Borrower and the
Borrower Subsidiaries under SECTION 16 shall survive such termination.

                   [Remainder of page left intentionally blank.]

any license or otherwise), the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically
apply thereto and Debtor shall give to Secured Party prompt notice thereof.
Debtor shall do all things deemed necessary or advisable by Secured Party to
ensure the validity, perfection, priority and enforceability of the security
interests of Secured Party in such future acquired Patent Collateral.  Debtor
hereby authorizes Secured Party to modify, amend or supplement the Schedules
hereto and to

                                       - 7 -

<PAGE>

re-execute this Agreement from time to time on Debtor's behalf and as its
attorney-in-fact to include any future patents which are or become Patent
Collateral and to cause such re-executed Agreement or such modified, amended
or supplemented Schedules to be filed with the PTO.

          7.   REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, Secured Party shall have all rights and remedies available to
it under the Loan Agreement and applicable law (which rights and remedies are
cumulative) with respect to the security interests in any of the Patent
Collateral or any other Collateral.  Debtor agrees that such rights and remedies
include the right of Secured Party as a Secured Party to sell or otherwise
dispose of its Collateral after default, pursuant to UCC Section 9504.  Debtor
agrees that Secured Party shall at all times have such royalty free licenses, to
the extent permitted by law, for any Patent Collateral that is reasonably
necessary to permit the exercise of any of Secured Party's rights or remedies
upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default with
respect to (among other things) any tangible asset of Debtor in which Secured
Party has a security interest, including Secured Party's rights to sell
inventory, tooling or packaging which is acquired by Debtor (or its successor,
assignee or trustee in bankruptcy).  In addition to and without limiting any of
the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Secured Party shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to
bring suit, or to take such other action as Secured Party deems necessary or
advisable, in the name of Debtor or Secured Party, to enforce or protect any of
the Patent Collateral, in which event Debtor shall, at the request of Secured
Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by
Secured Party in aid of such enforcement.  To the extent that Secured Party
shall elect not to bring suit to enforce such Patent Collateral, upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Debtor, in the
exercise of its reasonable business judgment, agrees to use all reasonable
measures and its diligent efforts, whether by action, suit, proceeding or
otherwise, to prevent the infringement, misappropriation or violations thereof
by others and for that purpose agrees diligently to maintain any action, suit or
proceeding against any Person necessary to prevent such infringement,
misappropriation or violation.

          8.   BINDING EFFECT.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by Debtor and Secured Party and their
respective successors and assigns.

          9.   NOTICES.  All notices and other communications hereunder shall be
in writing and shall be mailed, sent or delivered in accordance with the Loan
Agreement.

          10.  GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California,
except to the extent that the validity or perfection of the security interests
hereunder in respect of the Patent Collateral are governed by federal law, in
which case such choice of California law shall not be deemed to deprive Secured
Party of such rights and remedies as may be available under federal law.

          11.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT.  This Agreement and the Loan
Agreement, together with the Schedules hereto and thereto, contains the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior drafts and communications relating to such subject matter.
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be modified, amended or
waived except by the written agreement of the parties, as provided in the Loan
Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party may re-execute this
Agreement or modify, amend or supplement the Schedules hereto as provided in
SECTION 6 hereof.

          12.  SEVERABILITY.  If one or more provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any
jurisdiction or with respect to any party, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render illegal
or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with respect to
any other party, or any other provisions of this Agreement.

          13.  COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.  This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same
agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Agreement

          14.  LOAN AGREEMENT.  Debtor acknowledges that the rights and remedies
of Secured Party with respect to the security interest in the Patent Collateral
granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Loan Agreement and all such
rights and remedies are cumulative.

          15.  NO INCONSISTENT REQUIREMENTS.  Debtor acknowledges that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and
provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and Debtor
agrees that all such covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all
shall be performed and satisfied in accordance with their respective terms.

          16.  TERMINATION.  Upon the indefeasible payment in full of the
Obligations, including the cash collateralization, expiration, or cancellation
of all Obligations, if any, consisting of letters of credit, and the full and
final termination of any commitment to extend any financial accommodations under
the Loan Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and Secured Party shall
execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such further action
reasonably requested by Debtor and at Debtor's expense as shall be necessary to
evidence termination of the security interest granted by Debtor to Secured Party
hereunder.

                                       3

3.     DELIVERY AND REGISTRATION OF COLLATERAL.

              (a)    All certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing the Collateral shall be promptly delivered by Pledgor to Secured
Party or Secured Party's designee pursuant hereto at a location designated by
Secured Party and shall be held by or on behalf of Secured Party pursuant
hereto, and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be
accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank,
all in form and substance satisfactory to Secured Party.

              (b)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the right, at any time in its
discretion and without notice to Pledgor, to transfer to or to register on
the books of the Issuers (or of any other Person maintaining records with
respect to the Collateral) in the name of Secured Party or any of its
nominees any or all of the Collateral.  In addition, Secured Party shall have
the right at any time to exchange certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger
denominations.

              (c)    If, at any time and from time to time, any Collateral
(including any certificate or instrument representing or evidencing any
Collateral) is in the possession of a Person other than Secured Party or
Pledgor (a "Holder"), then Pledgor shall immediately, at Secured Party's
option, either cause such Collateral to be delivered into Secured Party's
possession, or execute and deliver to such Holder a written
notification/instruction, and take all other steps necessary to perfect the
security interest of Secured Party in such Collateral, including obtaining
from such Holder a written acknowledgement that such Holder holds such
Collateral for Secured Party, all pursuant to Section 9115 of the Code or
other applicable law governing the perfection of Secured Party's security
interest in the Collateral in the possession of such Holder.  Each such
notification/instruction and acknowledgement shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to Secured Party.

              (d)    Any and all Collateral (including dividends, interest,
and other cash distributions) at any time received or held by Pledgor shall
be so received or held in trust for Secured Party, shall be segregated from
other funds and property of Pledgor and shall be forthwith delivered to
Secured Party in the same form as so received or held, with any necessary
endorsements; PROVIDED that cash dividends or distributions received by
Pledgor, if and to the extent they are not prohibited by the Loan Agreement,
may be retained by Pledgor in accordance with SECTION 4 and used in the
ordinary course of Pledgor's business.

              (e)    If at any time and from time to time any Collateral
consists of an uncertificated security or a security in book entry form, then
Pledgor shall immediately cause such Collateral to be registered or entered,
as the case may be, in the name of Secured Party, or otherwise cause Secured
Party's security interest thereon to be perfected in accordance with
applicable law.

4.     VOTING RIGHTS AND DIVIDENDS.

                                       4
<PAGE>

              (a)    So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and
other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral or any part thereof for
any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of the Loan Documents and shall
be entitled to receive and retain any cash dividends or distributions paid in
respect of the Collateral.

              (b)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all rights of Pledgor to exercise the voting and other
consensual rights or receive and retain cash dividends or distributions that
it would otherwise be entitled to exercise or receive and retain, as
applicable pursuant to SECTION 4(a), shall cease, and all such rights shall
thereupon become vested in Secured Party, who shall thereupon have the sole
right to exercise such voting or other consensual rights and to receive and
retain such cash dividends and distributions.  Pledgor shall execute and
deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Secured Party all such
proxies and other instruments as Secured Party may reasonably request for the
purpose of enabling Secured Party to exercise the voting and other rights
which it is entitled to exercise and to receive the dividends and
distributions that it is entitled to receive and retain pursuant to the
preceding sentence.

5.     REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  Pledgor represents, warrants, and
covenants as follows:

              (a)    Pledgor has taken all steps it deems necessary or
appropriate to be informed on a continuing basis of changes or potential
changes affecting the Collateral (including rights of conversion and
exchange, rights to subscribe, payment of dividends, reorganizations or
recapitalization, tender offers and voting rights), and Pledgor agrees that
Secured Party shall have no responsibility or liability for informing Pledgor
of any such changes or potential changes or for taking any action or omitting
to take any action with respect thereto;

              (b)    All information herein or hereafter supplied to Secured
Party by or on behalf of Pledgor in writing with respect to the Collateral
is, or in the case of information hereafter supplied will be, accurate and
complete in all material respects;

              (c)    Pledgor is and will be the sole legal and beneficial
owner of the Collateral (including the Pledged Shares and all other
Collateral acquired by Pledgor after the date hereof) free and clear of any
adverse claim, Lien, or other right, title, or interest of any party, other
than the Liens in favor of Secured Party;

              (d)    This Agreement, and the delivery to Secured Party of the
Pledged Shares representing Collateral (or the delivery to all Holders of the
Pledged Shares representing Collateral of the notification/instruction
referred to in SECTION 3 of this Agreement), creates a valid, perfected, and
first priority security interest in one hundred percent (100%) of the Pledged
Shares in favor of Secured Party securing payment of the Secured Obligations,
and all actions necessary to achieve such perfection have been duly taken;

                                       5

to the provisions of this Agreement, are registered in the name of Pledgor;
and (ii) the Pledged Shares as to each of the Issuers constitute at least the
percentage of all the fully diluted issued and outstanding shares of stock of
such Issuer as set forth in SCHEDULE A to this Agreement;

              (f)    There are no presently existing Future Rights or
Proceeds owned by Pledgor;

              (g)    The Pledged Shares have been duly authorized and validly
issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; and

              (h)    Neither the pledge of the Collateral pursuant to this
Agreement nor the extensions of credit represented by the Secured Obligations
violates Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System.

6.     FURTHER ASSURANCES.

              (a)    Pledgor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of
Pledgor, Pledgor will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments
and documents, and take all further action that may be necessary or
reasonably desirable, or that Secured Party may request, in order to perfect
and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby
or to enable Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies
hereunder with respect to any Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Pledgor will: (i) at the request of Secured Party, mark
conspicuously each of its records pertaining to the Collateral with a legend,
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party, indicating
that such Collateral is subject to the security interest granted hereby; (ii)

more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative
to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of Pledgor where
permitted by law.  A carbon, photographic, or other reproduction of this
Agreement or any financing statement covering the Collateral or any part
thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law.

              (c)    Pledgor will furnish to Secured Party, upon the request of
Secured Party: (i) a certificate executed by an authorized officer of Pledgor,
and dated as of the date of delivery to Secured Party, itemizing in such detail
as Secured Party may request, the Collateral which, as of the date of such
certificate, has been delivered to Secured Party by

                                       6
<PAGE>

Pledgor pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; and (ii) such
statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral
and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as Secured Party may
request.

7.     COVENANTS OF PLEDGOR.  Pledgor shall:

              (a)    Perform each and every covenant in the Loan Documents
applicable to Pledgor;

              (b)    At all times keep at least one complete set of its
records concerning substantially all of the Collateral at its Chief Executive
Office as set forth in SCHEDULE B hereto, and not change the location of its
Chief Executive Office or such records without giving Secured Party at least
thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof;

              (c)    To the extent it may lawfully do so, use its best
efforts to prevent the Issuers from issuing Future Rights or Proceeds, except
for cash dividends and other distributions, if any, that are not prohibited
by the terms of the Loan Agreement to be paid by any Issuer to Pledgor; and

              (d)    Upon receipt by Pledgor of any material notice, report,
or other communication from any of the Issuers or any Holder relating to all
or any part of the Collateral, deliver such notice, report or other
communication to Secured Party as soon as possible, but in no event later
than five (5) days following the receipt thereof by Pledgor.

8.     SECURED PARTY AS PLEDGOR'S ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.

              (a)    Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as
Pledgor's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of
Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor, Secured Party or otherwise, from time to
time at Secured Party's discretion, to take any action and to execute any
instrument that Secured Party may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including: (i) upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to receive, endorse, and
collect all instruments made payable to Pledgor representing any dividend,
interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any
part thereof to the extent permitted hereunder and to give full discharge for
the same and to execute and file governmental notifications and reporting
forms; (ii) to issue any notifications/instructions Secured Party deems
necessary pursuant to SECTION 3 of this Agreement; or (iii) to arrange for
the transfer of the Collateral on the books of any of the Issuers or any
other Person to the name of Secured Party or to the name of Secured Party's
nominee.

              (b)    In addition to the designation of Secured Party as
Pledgor's attorney-in-fact in SUBSECTION (a), Pledgor hereby irrevocably
appoints Secured Party as Pledgor's agent and attorney-in-fact to make,
execute and deliver any and all documents and writings which may be necessary
or appropriate for approval of, or be required by, any regulatory authority
located in any city, county, state or country where Pledgor or any of the
Issuers engage in

                                       7
<PAGE>

business, in order to transfer or to more effectively transfer any of the
Pledged Shares or otherwise enforce Secured Party's rights hereunder.

9.     REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default:

              (a)    Secured Party may exercise in respect of the Collateral,
in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise
available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default
under the Code (irrespective of whether the Code applies to the affected
items of Collateral), and Secured Party may also without notice (except as
specified below) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more
parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at any
of Secured Party's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future
delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such
other terms as Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable, irrespective
of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral.  To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Secured Party may be the
purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and shall be
entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the
purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such
public sale, to use and apply all or any part of the Secured Obligations as a
credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable at such
sale.  Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold
absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of Pledgor, and Pledgor
hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption,
stay, or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have
under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Pledgor
agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least
ten (10) calendar days notice to Pledgor of the time and place of any public
sale or the time after which a private sale is to be made shall constitute
reasonable notification.  Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any
sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured
Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by
announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without
further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pledgor hereby waives any claims
against Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may
have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have
been obtained at a public sale, even if Secured Party accepts the first offer
received and does not offer such Collateral t more than one offeree.

              (b)    Pledgor hereby agrees that any sale or other disposition
of the Collateral conducted in conformity with reasonable commercial
practices of banks, insurance companies, or other financial institutions in
the City of Los Angeles, California in disposing of property similar to the
Collateral shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable.

              (c)    Pledgor hereby acknowledges that the sale by Secured Party
of any Collateral pursuant to the terms hereof in compliance with the Securities
Act of 1933 as now in effect or as hereafter amended, or any similar statute
hereafter adopted with similar purpose or effect (the "Securities Act"), as well
as applicable "Blue Sky" or other state

                                       8
<PAGE>

securities laws may require strict limitations as to the manner in which
Secured Party or any subsequent transferee of the Collateral may dispose
thereof.  Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that in order to protect Secured
Party's interest it may be necessary to sell the Collateral at a price less
than the maximum price attainable if a sale were delayed or were made in
another manner, such as a public offering under the Securities Act.  Pledgor
has no objection to sale in such a manner and agrees that Secured Party shall
have no obligation to obtain the maximum possible price for the Collateral.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pledgor agrees that, upon
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Secured
Party may, subject to applicable law, from time to time attempt to sell all
or any part of the Collateral by a private placement, restricting the bidders
and prospective purchasers to those who will represent and agree that they
are purchasing for investment only and not for distribution.  In so doing,
Secured Party may solicit offers to buy the Collateral or any part thereof
for cash, from a limited number of investors deemed by Secured Party, in its
reasonable judgment, to be institutional investors or other responsible
parties who might be interested in purchasing the Collateral.  If Secured
Party shall solicit such offers, then the acceptance by Secured Party of one
of the offers shall be deemed to be a commercially reasonable method of
disposition of the Collateral.

              (d)    If Secured Party shall determine to exercise its right
to sell all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to this Section,
Pledgor agrees that, upon request of Secured Party, Pledgor will, at its own
expense:

                     (i)    use its best efforts to execute and deliver, and
cause the Issuers and the directors and officers thereof to execute and
deliver, all such instruments and documents, and to do or cause to be done
all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of
Secured Party, advisable to register such Collateral under the provisions of
the Securities Act, and to cause the registration statement relating thereto
to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses
are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and
supplements thereto and to the related prospectuses which, in the opinion of
Secured Party, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto;

                     (ii)   use its best efforts to qualify the Collateral
under the state securities laws or "Blue Sky" laws and to obtain all
necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested
by Secured Party;

                     (iii)  cause the Issuers to make available to their
respective security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement
which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;

                     (iv)   execute and deliver, or cause the officers and
directors of the Issuers to execute and deliver, to any person, entity or
governmental authority as Secured Party may choose, any and all documents and
writings which, in Secured Party's reasonable judgment, may be necessary or
appropriate for approval, or be required by, any regulatory

                                       9
<PAGE>

authority located in any city, county, state or country where Pledgor or the
Issuers engage in business, in order to transfer or to more effectively
transfer the Pledged Shares or otherwise enforce Secured Party's rights
hereunder; and

                     (v)    do or cause to be done all such other acts and
things as may be necessary to make such sale of the Collateral or any part
thereof valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

Pledgor acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by
it to comply with the provisions of this Section and that such failure would
not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that its
agreements contained in this Section may be specifically enforced.

              (e)    PLEDGOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED
BY LAW: (i) ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR OTHER RIGHT TO A JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO
THE TIME SECURED PARTY DISPOSES OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE COLLATERAL AS
PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION; (ii) ALL RIGHTS OF REDEMPTION, STAY, OR APPRAISAL
THAT IT NOW HAS OR MAY AT ANY TIME IN THE FUTURE HAVE UNDER ANY RULE OF LAW
OR STATUTE NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ENACTED; AND (iii) EXCEPT AS SET FORTH
IN SUBSECTION (a) OF THIS SECTION, ANY REQUIREMENT OF NOTICE, DEMAND, OR
ADVERTISEMENT FOR SALE.

10.    APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, any cash held by Secured Party as
Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Secured Party in respect of any
sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the
Collateral pursuant to the exercise by Secured Party of its remedies as a
secured creditor as provided in SECTION 9 shall be applied from time to time
by Secured Party as provided in the Loan Agreement.

11.    DUTIES OF SECURED PARTY.  The powers conferred on Secured Party
hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not
impose on it any duty to exercise such powers.  Except as provided in Section
9207 of the Code, Secured Party shall have no duty with respect to the
Collateral or any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve
rights against any Persons with respect to any Collateral.

12.    CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE.  THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, ITS
CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES
HERETO SHALL BE DETERMINED UNDER, GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR
PROCEEDINGS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TRIED AND
LITIGATED ONLY IN THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF LOS
ANGELES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR, AT THE SOLE OPTION OF SECURED PARTY, IN ANY
OTHER COURT IN WHICH SECURED PARTY

                                       10
<PAGE>

SHALL INITIATE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PROCEEDINGS AND WHICH HAS SUBJECT MATTER
JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER IN CONTROVERSY.  EACH OF PLEDGOR AND SECURED
PARTY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EACH
MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE
TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 12.

13.    AMENDMENTS; ETC.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement nor consent to any departure by Pledgor herefrom shall in any event
be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Secured Party,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  No failure on the
part of Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right under
this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or otherwise with respect to any of
the Secured Obligations, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right under this Agreement, any other Loan
Document, or otherwise with respect to any of the Secured Obligations
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right.  The remedies provided for in this Agreement or otherwise with respect
to any of the Secured Obligations are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law.

14.    NOTICES.  Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or
other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in
writing and shall be delivered in the manner set forth in the Loan Agreement.

15.    CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST.  This Agreement shall create a
continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall: (i) remain in full
force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full of the Secured
Obligations, including the cash collateralization, expiration, or
cancellation of all Secured Obligations, if any, consisting of letters of
credit, and the full and final termination of any commitment to extend any
financial accommodations under the Loan Agreement; (ii) be binding upon
Pledgor and its successors and assigns; and (iii) inure to the benefit of
Secured Party and its successors, transferees, and assigns.  Upon the
indefeasible payment in full of the Secured Obligations, including the cash
collateralization, expiration, or cancellation of all Secured Obligations, if
any, consisting of letters of credit, and the full and final termination of
any commitment to extend any financial accommodations under the Loan
Agreement, the security interests granted herein shall automatically
terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Pledgor.  Upon any
such termination, Secured Party will, at Pledgor's expense, execute and
deliver to Pledgor such documents as Pledgor shall reasonably request to
evidence such termination.  Such documents shall be prepared by Pledgor and
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party.

16.    SECURITY INTEREST ABSOLUTE.  To the maximum extent permitted by law,
all rights of Secured Party, all security interests hereunder, and all
obligations of Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional
irrespective of:

                                       11
<PAGE>

              (a)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the
Secured Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto,
including any of the Loan Documents;

              (b)    any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any of the Loan
Documents, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

              (c)    any exchange, release, or non-perfection of any other
collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure
from any guaranty for all or any of the Secured Obligations; or

              (d)    any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute
a defense available to, or a discharge of, Pledgor.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pledgor hereby waives any right to
require Secured Party to: (A) proceed against or exhaust any security held
from Pledgor; or (B) pursue any other remedy in Secured Party's power
whatsoever.

17.    HEADINGS.  Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are
included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a
part of this Agreement or be given any substantive effect.

18.    SEVERABILITY.  In case any provision in or obligation under this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or
obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction,
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

19.    COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.  This Agreement may be executed
in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.  Delivery
of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be
equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this
Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this
Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall
not affect the validity, enforceability, or binding effect hereof.

20.    WAIVER OF MARSHALING.  Each of Pledgor and Secured Party acknowledges
and agrees that in exercising any rights under or with respect to the
Collateral: (i) Secured Party is under no obligation to marshal any
Collateral; (ii) may, in its absolute discretion, realize upon the Collateral
in any order and in any manner it so elects; and (iii) may, in its absolute
discretion, apply the proceeds of any or all of the Collateral to the Secured
Obligations in any order and in any manner it so elects.  Pledgor and Secured
Party waive any right to require the marshaling of any of the Collateral.

     Collateral, shall not be deemed a conflict in the Loan Agreement.

          2.   SECURITY INTEREST.

               (a)    ASSIGNMENT AND GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.  To secure
the Obligations, Debtor hereby grants, assigns, transfers and conveys to
Secured Party a continuing security interest in all of Debtor's right, title

     logos, other source or business identifiers, designs and general
     intangibles of like nature, now existing or hereafter adopted or acquired,

     register any trademark, service mark or other mark prior to the filing
     under applicable law of a verified statement of use (or the equivalent) for
     such trademark or service mark) and all extensions or renewals thereof,
     including without limitation any of the foregoing identified on SCHEDULE A
     hereto (as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to
     time), and the right (but not the obligation) to register claims under any
     state or federal trademark law or regulation and to apply for, renew and
     extend any of the same, to sue or bring opposition or cancellation
     proceedings in the name of Debtor or in the name of Secured Party for past,
     present or future infringement or unconsented use thereof, and all rights
     arising therefrom throughout the world (collectively, the "Trademarks");

                      (ii)    all claims, causes of action and rights to sue for
     past, present or future infringement or unconsented use of any Trademarks
     and all rights arising therefrom and pertaining thereto;

                      (iii)   all general intangibles related to or arising out
     of any of the Trademarks and all the goodwill of Debtor's business
     symbolized by the Trademarks or associated therewith; and

                      (iv)    all Proceeds of any and all of the foregoing
     Trademark Collateral (including license royalties, rights to payment,
     accounts receivable and proceeds of infringement suits) and, to the extent
     not otherwise included, all payments under insurance (whether or not
     Secured Party is the loss payee thereof) or any indemnity, warranty or
     guaranty payable by reason of loss or damage to or otherwise with respect
     to the foregoing Trademark Collateral.

               (b)    CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST.  Debtor agrees that this
Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Trademark
Collateral which shall remain in effect until terminated in accordance with
SECTION 16.

               (c)    INCORPORATION INTO LOAN AGREEMENT.  This Agreement
shall be fully incorporated into the Loan Agreement and all understandings,
agreements and provisions contained in the Loan Agreement shall be fully
incorporated into this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, the
Trademark Collateral described in this Agreement shall constitute part of the
Collateral in the Loan Agreement.

               (d)    PERMITTED LICENSES. Anything in the Loan Agreement or
this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Debtor may grant

interest (if any) of Secured Party therein) in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice.

                                       4
<PAGE>

          3.   FURTHER ASSURANCES; APPOINTMENT OF SECURED PARTY AS
ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.  Debtor at its expense shall execute and deliver, or cause
to be executed and delivered, to Secured Party any and all documents and
instruments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party,
and take any and all action, which Secured Party may reasonably request from
time to time, to perfect and continue perfected, maintain the priority of or
provide notice of Secured Party's security interest in the Trademark
Collateral and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.  If Debtor
refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute and deliver, any
of the documents it is requested to execute and deliver by Secured Party in
accordance with the foregoing, Secured Party shall have the right, in the
name of Debtor, or in the name of Secured Party or otherwise, without notice
to or assent by Debtor, and Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints Secured Party (and any of Secured Party's officers or employees or
agents designated by Secured Party) as Debtor's true and lawful
attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, (i) to sign the name of
Debtor on all or any of such documents or instruments and perform all other
acts that Secured Party reasonably deems necessary or advisable in order to
perfect or continue perfected, maintain the priority or enforceability of or
provide notice of Secured Party's security interest in, the Trademark
Collateral, and (ii) to execute any and all other documents and instruments,
and to perform any and all acts and things for and on behalf of Debtor, which
Secured Party reasonably may deem necessary or advisable to maintain,
preserve and protect the Trademark Collateral and to accomplish the purposes
of this Agreement, including (A) after the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, to defend, settle, adjust or institute
any action, suit or proceeding with respect to the Trademark Collateral, (B)
after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to
assert or retain any rights under any license agreement for any of the
Trademark Collateral, and (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, to execute any and all applications, documents,
papers and instruments for Secured Party to use the Trademark Collateral, to
grant or issue any exclusive or non-exclusive license with respect to any
Trademark Collateral, and to assign, convey or otherwise transfer title in or
dispose of the Trademark Collateral.  The power of attorney set forth in this
SECTION 3, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as this
Agreement shall not have terminated in accordance with SECTION 16.

          4.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  Debtor represents and
warrants to Secured Party, as follows:

               (a)    NO OTHER TRADEMARKS.  SCHEDULE A sets forth, a true and
correct list of all of the existing Trademarks (whether registered or
otherwise), or for which any application for registration has been filed with
the PTO or any corresponding or similar trademark office of any other U.S.
jurisdiction, and that are owned or held (whether pursuant to a license or
otherwise) and used by Debtor.

                                       5
<PAGE>

               (b)    VALIDITY.  Each of the Trademarks listed in SCHEDULE A
is subsisting and has not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or
in part, and, to the best of Debtor's knowledge, each of the Trademarks is
valid and enforceable.

               (c)    TITLE.  (i) Debtor has rights in and good and
defensible title to the Trademark Collateral, (ii) with respect to the
Trademark Collateral shown on SCHEDULE A hereto as owned by it, Debtor is the
sole and exclusive owner thereof, free and clear of any Liens and rights of
others (other than the security interest created hereunder and other than
Permitted Liens), including licenses, registered user agreements and
covenants by Debtor not to sue third persons, and (iii) with respect to any
Trademarks for which Debtor is either a licensor or a licensee pursuant to a
license or licensee agreement regarding such Trademark, each such license or
licensing agreement is in full force and effect, Debtor is not in material
default of any of its obligations thereunder and, other than (A) the parties
to such licenses or licensing agreements, or (B) in the case of any
non-exclusive license or license agreement entered into by Debtor or any such
licensor regarding such Trademark, the parties to any other such
non-exclusive licenses or license agreements entered into by Debtor or any
such licensor with any other Person, no other Person has any rights in or to
any of the Trademark Collateral.

               (d)    NO INFRINGEMENT.  To the best of Debtor's knowledge,
(i) no material infringement or unauthorized use presently is being made of
any of the Trademark Collateral by any Person, and (ii) the past, present and
contemplated future use of the Trademark Collateral by Debtor has not, does
not and will not infringe upon or violate any right, privilege or license
agreement of or with any other Person.

               (e)    POWERS.  Debtor has the unqualified right, power and
authority to pledge and to grant to Secured Party a security interest in all
of the Trademark Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, and to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person except as
already obtained.

          5.   COVENANTS.  Debtor covenants that so long as this Agreement
shall be in effect, Debtor shall:

               (a)    comply with all of the covenants, terms and provisions
of this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

               (b)    promptly give Secured Party written notice of the
occurrence of any event that could have a material adverse effect on any of
the Trademarks or the Trademark Collateral, including any petition under the
Bankruptcy Code filed by or against any licensor of any of the Trademarks for
which Debtor is a licensee;

               (c)    on a continuing basis, make, execute, acknowledge and
deliver, and file and record in the proper filing and recording places, all
such instruments and documents,

                                       6
<PAGE>

including appropriate financing and continuation statements and security
agreements, and take all such action as may be necessary or advisable or may
be requested by Secured Party to carry out the intent and purposes of this
Agreement, or for assuring, confirming or protecting the grant or perfection
of the security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby, to ensure
Debtor's compliance with this Agreement or to enable Secured Party to
exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the
Trademark Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
sentence, Debtor:

                      (i)     hereby authorizes Secured Party in its sole
     discretion if Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to
     execute and deliver, any of the documents it is requested to execute and
     deliver by Secured Party, to modify this Agreement without first obtaining
     Debtor's approval of or signature to such modification by amending
     SCHEDULE A hereof to include a reference to any right, title or interest in
     any existing Trademark Collateral or any Copyright, Registration or
     Trademark Collateral acquired or developed by Debtor after the execution
     hereof, or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any
     Trademark Collateral in which Debtor no longer has or claims any right,
     title or interest; and

                      (ii)    hereby authorizes Secured Party, in its sole
     discretion, to file one or more financing or continuation statements, if
     Debtor refuses to execute and deliver, or fails timely to execute and
     deliver, any such amendment thereto it is requested to execute and deliver
     by Secured Party, any amendments thereto, relative to all or any portion of
     the Trademark Collateral, without the signature of Debtor where permitted
     by law;

               (d)    comply, in all material respects, with all applicable
statutory and regulatory requirements in connection with any and all of the
Trademark Collateral and do all other acts and take all other measures which,
in Debtor's reasonable business judgment, may be necessary or desirable to
preserve, protect and maintain the Trademark Collateral and all of Debtor's
rights therein, including diligently prosecute any material trademark
application pending as of the date of this Agreement or thereafter;

               (e)    comply with each of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement, and not enter into any agreement (for example, a license
agreement) which is inconsistent with the obligations of Debtor under this
Agreement without Secured Party's prior written consent; and

               (f)    not permit the inclusion in any contract to which
Debtor becomes a party of any provision that could or might impair or prevent
the creation of a security interest in favor of Secured Party in Debtor's
rights and interest in any property included within the definition of
Trademark Collateral acquired under such contracts.

          6.   FUTURE RIGHTS.  If and when Debtor shall obtain rights to any new
Trademarks, or any reissue, renewal or extension of any Trademarks, the
provisions of this

                                       7
<PAGE>

Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and Debtor shall give to Secured
Party prompt notice thereof.  Debtor shall do all things reasonably deemed
necessary or advisable by Secured Party to ensure the validity, perfection,
priority and enforceability of the security interests of Secured Party in
such future acquired Trademark Collateral.  If Debtor refuses to execute and
deliver, or fails timely to execute and deliver, any of the documents it is
requested to execute and deliver by Secured Party in connection herewith,
Debtor hereby authorizes Secured Party to modify, amend or supplement the
Schedules hereto and to re-execute this Agreement from time to time on
Debtor's behalf and as its attorney-in-fact to include any future Trademarks
which are or become Trademark Collateral and to cause such re-executed
Agreement or such modified, amended or supplemented Schedules to be filed
with the PTO.

          7.   REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of
an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have all rights and remedies
available to it under the Loan Agreement and applicable law (which rights and
remedies are cumulative) with respect to the security interests in any of the
Trademark Collateral or any other Collateral.  Debtor agrees that such rights
and remedies include the right of Secured Party as a secured party to sell or
otherwise dispose of its Collateral after default, pursuant to UCC Section
9504.  Debtor agrees that Secured Party shall at all times have such
royalty-free licenses, to the extent permitted by law, for any Trademark
Collateral that is reasonably necessary to permit the exercise of any of
Secured Party's rights or remedies upon or after the occurrence of (and
during the continuance of) an Event of Default with respect to (among other
things) any tangible asset of Debtor in which Secured Party has a security
interest, including Secured Party's rights to sell inventory, tooling or
packaging which is acquired by Debtor (or its successor, assignee or trustee
in bankruptcy).  In addition to and without limiting any of the foregoing,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Secured Party shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring
suit, or to take such other action as Secured Party deems necessary or
advisable, in the name of Debtor or Secured Party, to enforce or protect any
of the Trademark Collateral, in which event Debtor shall, at the request of
Secured Party, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents
required by Secured Party in aid of such enforcement.  To the extent that
Secured Party shall elect not to bring suit to enforce such Trademark
Collateral, Debtor, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment,
agrees to use all reasonable measures and its diligent efforts, whether by
action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement,
misappropriation or violation thereof by others and for that purpose agrees
diligently to maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person
necessary to prevent such infringement, misappropriation or violation.

          8.   BINDING EFFECT.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, inure
to the benefit of and be enforceable by Debtor and Secured Party and their
respective successors and assigns.

                                       8
<PAGE>

          9.   NOTICES.  All notices and other communications hereunder shall
be in writing and shall be mailed, sent or delivered in accordance with the
Loan Agreement.

          10.  GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of
California, except to the extent that the validity or perfection of the
security interests hereunder in respect of any Trademark Collateral are
governed by federal law, in which case such choice of California law shall
not be deemed to deprive Secured Party of such rights and remedies as may be
available under federal law.

          11.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT.  This Agreement and the Loan
Agreement, together with the Schedules hereto and thereto, contains the
entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersede all prior drafts and communications relating to such subject
matter.  Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be modified,
amended or waived except by the written agreement of the parties as provided
in the Loan Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party may
re-execute this Agreement or modify, amend or supplement the Schedules hereto
as provided in SECTION 6 hereof.

          12.  SEVERABILITY.  If one or more provisions contained in this
Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect in any
jurisdiction or with respect to any party, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in such jurisdiction or with respect to such party shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, not invalidate or render
illegal or unenforceable any such provision in any other jurisdiction or with
respect to any other party, or any other provisions of this Agreement.

          13.  COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION.  This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original
executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed
counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original
executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original
executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and
binding effect of this Agreement

          14.  LOAN AGREEMENT.  Debtor acknowledges that the rights and
remedies of Secured Party with respect to the security interest in the
Trademark Collateral granted hereby are more fully set forth in the Loan
Agreement and all such rights and remedies are cumulative.

          15.  NO INCONSISTENT REQUIREMENTS.  Debtor acknowledges that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may contain covenants and other terms and
provisions variously stated regarding the same or similar matters, and Debtor
agrees that all such

                                       9
<PAGE>

covenants, terms and provisions are cumulative and all shall be performed and
satisfied in accordance with their respective terms.

          16.  TERMINATION.  Upon the payment in full of the Obligations,
including the cash collateralization, expiration, or cancellation of all
Obligations, if any, consisting of letters of credit, and the full and final
termination of any commitment to extend any financial accommodations under
the Loan Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate, and Secured Party shall
execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such further
action reasonably requested by Debtor, at Debtor's expense, as shall be
necessary to evidence termination of the security interest granted by Debtor
to Secured Party hereunder, including cancellation of this Agreement by
written notice from Secured Party to the PTO.

accuracy of the Audited Party's reports or to advise the Auditing Party of any

6.       CONFIDENTIALITY

6.1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. "Confidential Information" means all financial,
business, marketing, operations, technical, and economic information, whether
tangible or intangible, that is disclosed by either party (the "Disclosing
Party") or any of Disclosing Party's suppliers, employees, contractors or
customers to the other party (the "Recipient"), if such information is disclosed
(i) in writing or by way of any other media that is marked as "confidential" or
"proprietary" information; (ii) orally or visually, provided that, such oral or
visual disclosure is followed by written confirmation by the Disclosing Party
within three (3) business days of such disclosure; provided that (A)

by the Disclosing Party for release; and (B) only the specific information that

happens to appear in proximity to such excluded portions (for example, a portion
of a document may be excluded without affecting the confidential nature of those
portions that do not themselves qualify for exclusion); and (C) Confidential
Information includes summaries and other materials prepared by or on behalf of a
Recipient that restate, summarize or otherwise use any Confidential Information
of a Disclosing Party except to the extent that such summaries and other
materials qualify for exclusion under this Section.

secret and maintain the Confidential Information as confidential and to hold the
Confidential Information in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Disclosing
Party; (b) to use or copy the Confidential Information solely to perform its
obligations under this Agreement; (c) to segregate the Confidential Information
from the Recipient's other information and

<PAGE>
                                      -11-

from that of third parties; (d) not to copy the Confidential Information unless
necessary to perform services under this Agreement; (e) to notify promptly the

right to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information before any
tribunal or governmental agency; (f) not to disclose the Confidential
Information to any person or entity not a party to this Agreement other than
such of Recipient's contractors, agents or employees who (i) have a need to know
the Confidential Information for a purpose permitted hereunder; and (ii) are
apprised of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information; and (g)

such unauthorized use or disclosure; (2) be liable for breaches of
confidentiality by its employees, contractors or agents; and (3) include the
other party's reasonable proprietary rights notices on any media or products
embodying the other party's Confidential Information, including partial copies
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall prevent a Recipient from disclosing the
Disclosing Party's Confidential Information to any tribunal or governmental
agency, so long as the notice in this Section 6.2 is promptly given; PROVIDED
THAT, such disclosure shall not alter the status of such information hereunder
for all other purposes as Confidential Information unless and until such
information is actually made public by the tribunal or agency.

         c.       This Agreement shall terminate automatically, with no further
                  action by either party, if (i) a receiver is appointed for

                  the purpose of seeking a reorganization of such party's debts,
                  and such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90)
                  calendar days of its commencement, or (iv) either party is
                  liquidated or dissolved.

7.3.     EFFECT OF TERMINATION.

         a.       THEN-CURRENT ORDERS. Upon termination of this Agreement, the
                  provisions of Section 2, 3.1, and 3.2 regarding the
                  obligations of each party shall terminate, PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
                  that (a) the parties will continue to perform all obligations
                  relating to pending Initial Orders or Renewal Orders in
                  accordance with a schedule to be mutually agreed upon by the
                  parties no later than thirty (30) days after the date of
                  termination, and (b) RoweCom shall provide ongoing customer
                  service to Customers at no less a level of service than it
                  provides to other customers.

         b.       CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Promptly after all obligations to
                  existing customers are performed pursuant to clause (a)
                  hereof, each party shall return to the other party or certify
                  in writing to the other party that it has destroyed all
                  documents and other tangible items it or its employees or
                  agents have received from the Disclosing Party which
                  constitute Confidential Information of the other party;
                  provided, however, that for twelve (12) months following
                  termination of this Agreement RoweCom may retain information
                  regarding Customers, solely for the purposes of fulfilling
                  RoweCom's customer support obligations set forth herein.

the rights of termination and nonrenewal set forth in this Section 7 are final,
and that the parties have considered the possibility of such termination or
nonrenewal and the possibility of loss and damage resulting therefrom, in making

for damages or otherwise solely by reason of the termination of this Agreement
in accordance with Section 7.1 or 7.2 above. The parties expressly agree that

OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 6 (CONFIDENTIALITY) AND CLAIMS ARISING UNDER SECTION
8.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT (INDEMNIFICATION), IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE
LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SIMILAR
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS OR LOST
REVENUES), WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS PREDICATED ON CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY,
STATUTE, REGULATION, OR ANY OTHER THEORY. EACH PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE
OTHER PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ITS PERFORMANCE
OR FAILURE TO PERFORM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, PROVIDED THAT THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF
EITHER PARTY TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES SHALL, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF

ARISING UNDER SECTION 8.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT (INDEMNIFICATION), BE LIMITED IN THE
AGGREGATE TO THE AMOUNT PAID AND/OR PAYABLE BY ROWECOM TO ABSOLUTE UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT AT THE TIME SUCH LIABILITY IS FINALLY DETERMINED, WHICHEVER IS
GREATER.

8.2. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The parties agree that the remedy at law for any breach
of the provisions of Sections 3.4, 5, and/or 6 of this Agreement shall be
inadequate and the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief in
addition to any other remedies that may be available to the non-breaching party.

8.3.     INDEMNIFICATION.

         a.       OBLIGATION. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.3(b), each
                  party (each an "Indemnitor") hereby agrees to indemnify,
                  defend and hold the other party and its affiliates, directors,
                  officers, employees, contractors and agents (each an
                  "Indemnitee") harmless from and against any third party claim,
                  suit, demand, liability, loss or expense (including reasonable
                  attorney fees) (collectively, "Losses") arising out of or
                  relating to the Indemnitor's breach of its obligations,
                  representations and warranties under this Agreement.

         b.       PROCEDURE. To receive the benefit of the foregoing
                  indemnities, the Indemnitee must promptly notify the
                  Indemnitor in writing of a claim or suit and provide
                  reasonable cooperation (at the Indemnitor's expense) and
                  tender to the Indemnitor full authority to defend or settle
                  the claim or suit, PROVIDED, that the Indemnitor may not
                  settle such claim or suit without the consent of the
                  Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
                  Neither party has any obligation to indemnify the other party
                  in connection with any settlement made without the
                  Indemnitor's written consent.
