        (a)     General. StarTek hereby agrees to conduct Manufacturing and
Supply and Services for Products on the Products List at the Facility pursuant
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including without
limitation, the Statements of Work. StarTek shall not conduct Manufacturing and
Supply and Services at or from any location other than the Facility without

with reports as specified herein or in the Exhibits (each a "Report"), with
respect to all Products or Manufacturing and Supply and Services ordered or sold
hereunder through StarTek to Customers. All Reports shall be in the form shown
in the Exhibits and have the content as set forth in this Agreement or as
otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, and shall be

                                       3
<PAGE>

complete as required under this Agreement and accurate. Each Report, whether in
paper or electronic format, shall meet the Standard Report Requirements
identified for the Report in the Exhibits and shall be delivered as specified in
the Exhibits. StarTek shall use reasonable efforts to correct any errors in a
Report within * following Microsoft's notice specifying the item in respect of
which an error has occurred. StarTek shall deliver each Report and all required
supporting documentation therefor, by the time and on the date specified in the
Exhibits.

        (d)     No Alteration; No Misrepresentation. Except in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement or as otherwise authorized in writing by Microsoft,
StarTek shall not alter the Product or Product packaging without the specific
prior written consent of Microsoft, and shall have no authority to make copies
of Microsoft diskettes or documentation other than as provided in this
Agreement. StarTek shall distribute Product to Customers as specified in the
Statements of Work. No other product or informational piece, including without
limitation flyers, literature, documentation and advertising may be bundled with
any product without the prior written consent of Microsoft. All materials used
by StarTek in the distribution of Product shall comply with Section 4 hereof and
shall clearly note that such Product is Microsoft Product. Such materials may
include, but are not limited to, Microsoft invoices, packing slips, and
packaging.

        (e)     Inventory. All of the Inventory shall at all times be held
exclusively for assembly and delivery to shipping locations as authorized by
Microsoft and for no other purpose, use or disposition, except as may be
directed in writing by Microsoft. StarTek shall at all times cause the Inventory
to be free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances and other claims of its
creditors. StarTek grants Microsoft the option, assignable to any affiliated
corporation, to acquire by purchase all of the Inventory and/or Product
Components (less Finished Product Units which have already been purchased by
Microsoft) upon * notice, and payment as would apply for unused Inventory in the
case of termination as stated in Section 10, at the price set forth at in
Exhibit C. At any time, upon Microsoft's request, StarTek shall take all
necessary steps and shall execute such documents as may be necessary or
advisable under the local law where the Inventory is located, in order to effect
the sale of such Inventory and/or Product Components to Microsoft and to
document Microsoft's title to Inventory and/or Product Components owned by
Microsoft. Use of Intellectual Property in any manner by StarTek after
expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, whether or not
incorporated in Inventory, shall be deemed to be in violation of Microsoft's
Intellectual Property rights and shall entitle Microsoft to have all remedies
provided by law or equity (including injunctive relief); provided, however, (i)
this does not preclude StarTek from continuing to use in its offices Microsoft
Products legally acquired for that purpose; and (ii) it does not preclude
StarTek's performance of independent contractual relationships with Microsoft or
an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) or other party, which contract contains
the requisite Microsoft product replication license.

        (f)     Inventory Consignment. If, and to the extent that, Microsoft
delivers Deliverables, Product CD-ROMs and/or Disk Set Components (collectively
referred to

                                       4
<PAGE>

herein as the "Consigned Inventory") to StarTek or places it under StarTek's
control, this is a true consignment agreement governing such Consigned
inventory, which StarTek shall hold in trust for the sole benefit of Microsoft
pursuant to Section 6(b)(i). StarTek is not purchasing the Consigned Inventory.
StarTek shall hold the Consigned Inventory either (a) for delivery to
Microsoft's distribution center pursuant to this Agreement or (b) for return to
Microsoft, and StarTek's authority is limited thereto. Microsoft consents only
to sales in the ordinary course of providing the Services pursuant to this
Agreement. The references in this subsection or elsewhere in this Agreement to
"StarTek's control" means its ability to exercise restraining or directing
influence over the item described. All of the Consigned Inventory shall be held
in the Microsoft approved Facilities and exclusively for transfer to Microsoft's
distribution center as authorized by Microsoft and for no other purpose, use or
disposition, except as may be directed by Microsoft. Microsoft shall have title
and ownership of the entire Consigned Inventory. StarTek shall at all times
cause the Consigned Inventory to be free and clear of any and all liens,
encumbrances and other claims of StarTek's creditors. StarTek shall label all
Consigned Inventory as being the "property of Microsoft" and keep all such
Consigned Inventory completely and totally segregated from any materials,
supplies or inventory belonging to StarTek or any of its customers. At any time,
at Microsoft's request, StarTek shall take all reasonable steps and shall
execute a security agreement and financing statements, or their equivalents, all
as may be necessary or advisable under the local law where the Consigned
Inventory is located, in order to place of record Microsoft's ownership of all
Consigned Inventory, and its unavailability to any creditor or creditors of
StarTek. Microsoft shall bear the reasonable cost to StarTek (not to exceed $*)
of reviewing, negotiating and executing any such security agreements or
financing statements, except that StarTek shall bear the cost of executing any
such agreements or statements done contemporaneously in connection with the
execution of this Agreement.

        (g)     Declaration of Trust.

                (1)     Generally. StarTek hereby declares, confirms and agrees
that throughout the term of this Agreement, StarTek shall hold in trust for the
sole benefit of Microsoft all Consigned Inventory within StarTek's possession or
within its reasonable control, of any kind, description or character. StarTek
further agrees to account for the Consigned Inventory in its possession or under
its reasonable control as property held in trust for Microsoft and not as assets
belonging to StarTek, and not to present any Consigned Inventory as assets of
StarTek in its balance sheet or in any representations (whether oral or written)
to its creditors.

        Wherever this Agreement states StarTek holds property in trust or as
trustee, StarTek agrees to exercise ordinary care that Consigned Inventory
received by StarTek will be handled as specified in this Agreement, but it does
not, because of any trust or otherwise, undertake any greater standard of care.

                (2)     Accounting. StarTek agrees to account for the
disposition of all Consigned Inventory received by StarTek, such accounting to
be given to Microsoft at

                                       5
<PAGE>

Microsoft's request, at the times and in the manner reasonably requested by
Microsoft. If this is beyond the reports otherwise required hereunder, the
reasonable expense of it shall be paid by Microsoft.

                (3)     Directions. Microsoft may at any time direct StarTek to
return to Microsoft according to Microsoft's direction and at Microsoft's sole
expense part or all of the Consigned Inventory in StarTek's possession or under
its reasonable control. StarTek shall promptly * comply with any such direction.

        (h)     Agreement Not to Sell. StarTek acknowledges that, under the
terms of this Agreement, that both during and after the term of this Agreement
it has no rights within the licenses pertaining to software or other Microsoft
proprietary materials or Products which would allow StarTek to be a seller or
distributor of any Products. Whenever requested by Microsoft and from time to
time, it will sign separate mutually acceptable agreements to this effect.

        (i)     Safe Storage and *. StarTek agrees not to store any other goods
near or in such relation to the Products or Product Components as to cause
injury to those Products or Product Components through contamination by strong
odors, leakage, or otherwise. *

        (j)     Non-exclusivity. This Agreement is not an exclusive agreement.
At all times Microsoft shall have the right to appoint other third parties to
perform Manufacturing and Supply and Services and other services for Microsoft
or Customers. Provided that StarTek would not be placed in breach of this
Agreement, StarTek may contract with and conduct manufacturing services for
other software companies.

        (k)     Financial Information. Within * days after StarTek learns that
it has become or will become Insolvent, StarTek shall submit financial
statements to Microsoft in sufficient detail to allow Microsoft to determine
whether StarTek shall be capable of continuing to perform its obligations
hereunder. The financial statements shall include, but shall not be limited to,
balance sheets and related statements of income and retained earnings and
statements of changes in financial condition. To the extent those statements are
audited, the audit report of the certified public accountant performing the
audit shall also be made available to Microsoft.

        (l)     Return of Deliverables. StarTek will have possession of
Deliverables and replicable material for certain Products and other property for
purposes of the replication to be done under this Agreement. Upon termination of
this Agreement and at any early time whenever requested by Microsoft to do so,
StarTek shall immediately deliver, at Microsoft's cost, to Microsoft all of such
Deliverables (provided that in no event shall such a request by Microsoft for
StarTek's return of the Deliverables prejudice StarTek's right to full
performance by Microsoft tinder this Agreement), replicable materials and all
and any other Microsoft proprietary materials ever received by it and it shall
not retain any copy or original of the same in any way whatsoever.

                                       6
<PAGE>

        (m)     Quality Requirements. StarTek shall ensure that in performing
its obligations under this Agreement, it shall operate in accordance with the
quality guidelines as posted on Microsoft's Website, which can be found at *
(the "Microsoft Website") and as set forth in the Statements of Work.

        (n)     Production. StarTek covenants and agrees to meet Microsoft's
demands for Product related to designated shipping locations, as such demands
may be adjusted from time to time. Additional measurement procedures may be
implemented as mutually agreed upon by Microsoft and StarTek.

        (o)     Non-Conforming Product. StarTek shall promptly replace and
deliver, within * from notification, at no charge to Microsoft or its Customers,
any non-conforming Product if any delivery of Product, or any portion of it, to
any Customer fails to meet the quality standards specified in the Statements of
Work. If StarTek is unable to obtain Product Components necessary to replace
non-conforming Product within the specified * period, then replacement of such
non-conforming Products shall take place as soon as possible after necessary
Product Components are obtained by StarTek. StarTek agrees to use its best
efforts to obtain Product Components as quickly as possible. In the event
Microsoft determines that a Product recall is necessary due to a breach of
StarTek's warranties hereunder, or due to a manufacturing defect, StarTek shall
cooperate with Microsoft in all respects to conduct such recall at StarTek's
expense; provided that if StarTek has given prior notice of the possible defect
and recommended against delivery and the Product is nonetheless delivered at
Microsoft's direction, or if the recall is necessary because of a Microsoft
error, the recall on account of that defect shall be at Microsoft's expense, but
StarTek shall still cooperate with it, and in such a case, Microsoft shall
reimburse StarTek for the costs of Manufacturing and Supply and Services for the
replacement Products.

4.      PRICE AND PAYMENT.

        (a)     General. Microsoft and StarTek agree that StarTek shall be
compensated for the Manufacturing and Supply and Services pursuant to the Price
and Payment terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit C *. Microsoft shall be
liable for payment to StarTek for Raw Materials that have been purchased in
support of the weekly forecasts issued by Microsoft. Such forecasts shall only
cover a * period and Microsoft shall not be responsible for Raw Materials
purchased in excess of such forecasts. StarTek will use all reasonable efforts
to provide competitive pricing to Microsoft. Except for Miscellaneous Charges
(as defined below), all payments due by Microsoft to StarTek under this
Agreement for Manufacturing Services shall be made * from Microsoft's receipt of
a Purchase Order Receipt from StarTek. Payment shall be made by Microsoft in
accordance with the Microsoft SAP Autovoucher Procedures. Payment for
Miscellaneous Charges due by Microsoft to StarTek under this Agreement shall be
made net * from Microsoft's receipt of an invoice from StarTek. Any undisputed
payment that is overdue for more than *, shall thereafter bear interest at an
annual rate of * per annum (or such lower rate as may then be the highest rate
legally available).

        (b)     Manner of Payment; Invoices. For Manufacturing and Supply and
Services, with the exception of Miscellaneous Charges, StarTek shall provide
daily Purchase Order Receipts in accordance with the Microsoft SAP Autovoucher
Procedures. StarTek shall render accurate monthly invoices for the Miscellaneous
Charges earned by the date of the Microsoft Fiscal Month Close. For purposes of
this Section 4, "Miscellaneous Charges" shall be defined as including, without
limitation, prep/tooling, freight charges, pallet charges and samples. Such
invoices shall consist of a complete, itemized listing of all such Manufacturing
and Supplying and Services performed or Miscellaneous Charges incurred during
the current invoice period. Microsoft shall pay within * of its receipt of an
invoice, the

                                       8
<PAGE>

entire amount of the invoice (except for Disputed Amounts), if the invoice is
accurate, complete and accompanied by backup documentation required in the
Statements of Work. All invoices shall be expressed in U.S. dollars. All
payments shall be made by Microsoft in U.S. dollars either by first class mail,
postage paid, at the address specified herein for notices to StarTek or in such
other manner or at such other place as StarTek may reasonably designate from
time to time by notice to Microsoft or electronically, at Microsoft's sole
option. Payment shall be deemed credited to the account of Microsoft when
received by StarTek if sent by first class mail or upon receipt by StarTek's
financial institution if sent electronically.

        (c)     Disputed Amounts. As used herein, "Disputed Amounts" means
invoice or Purchase Order Receipt amounts that are subject to a bona fide
dispute raised by Microsoft in writing within * of Microsoft's receipt of an
invoice, in the case of Miscellaneous Charges, or within * of an audit of
Purchase Order Receipts, in the case of Manufacturing Services, which claim of
dispute may concern not only the accuracy of the charge itself, but also any
claim of deficient service or performance or any other claim of breach of this
Agreement that relates to the specific charges in the invoice or Purchase Order
Receipt. All Disputed Amounts that Microsoft subsequently agrees in writing to
pay ("Agreed Payment") or that are required to be paid pursuant to a proper
court order or award from any mutually submitted arbitration ("Required
Payment") shall be paid within * from the date of such agreement or
determination. Payment of an invoice or Purchase Order Receipt without asserting
a dispute is not a waiver as to any claim or circumstance.

        (d)     Revisions to StarTek Services. From time to time, Microsoft may
request that StarTek revise its Manufacturing and Supply and Services. If (i)
Microsoft makes a request or a series of requests that materially changes the
Manufacturing and Supply and Services and (ii) StarTek determines that a change
in compensation is warranted, StarTek may provide Microsoft with a quote of the
change in cost, by unit or other appropriate measure, for which it will
undertake the change of Services ("Interim Rate Quote"). Microsoft may accept or
reject any Interim Rate Quote. If Microsoft accepts an Interim Rate Quote,
StarTek's Manufacturing and Supply and Services and the corresponding costs to
Microsoft shall be revised accordingly, which revision shall be memorialized in
a written amendment signed by both parties. If Microsoft rejects an Interim Rate
Quote, StarTek's Manufacturing and Supply and Services shall not be revised but
Microsoft shall then be free to have the changed Manufacturing and Supply and
Services in question performed by a third party and to terminate the relevant
portion of the Manufacturing and Supply and Services upon * prior notice to
StarTek. StarTek agrees, at Microsoft's reasonable expense, to cooperate with
such third party to transition and allow it to perform such Manufacturing and
Supply and Services. This Section 4(d) does not impair either party's rights
under Section 11(b) hereof.

        (e)     Cost Containment.*

        (f)     Taxes. In the event income taxes are required to be withheld by
Microsoft on payments to StarTek required hereunder, Microsoft agrees to provide
StarTek with

                                       9
<PAGE>

reasonable notice in advance of the first such withholding, and Microsoft may
deduct such income taxes from the amounts owed and timely pay such taxes, when
required, to the appropriate taxing authority. Microsoft shall in turn promptly
secure and deliver to StarTek an official receipt for any income taxes withheld.
Microsoft agrees-to pay all applicable goods and services or other applicable
consumption taxes (other than income taxes) levied on it by a duly constituted
and authorized taxing authority on the Manufacturing and Supply and Services. To
the extent required by any such taxing authority, StarTek may collect such
taxes, if any, from Microsoft, and, in such case, shall remit to Microsoft
official tax receipts indicating that such taxes have been collected by StarTek
and remitted to the appropriate tax authorities, to the extent such receipts are
available, and StarTek shall show such taxes as separate line items on invoices
to Microsoft. StarTek agrees to take such steps as are reasonably requested by
Microsoft to minimize such taxes in accordance with all relevant laws and to
cooperate with and assist Microsoft, in challenging the validity of any taxes
applicable to the Manufacturing and Supply and Services and collected from
Microsoft by StarTek or otherwise paid by Microsoft. Except as required by law
or where expressly agreed to, in writing, by Microsoft pursuant to Exhibit C,
Microsoft shall not pay any taxes other than those described above, including,
without limitation (1) taxes on or with respect to or measured by any net or
gross income or receipts of StarTek, (2) any franchise taxes, taxes on doing
business, gross receipts taxes or capital stock taxes (including any minimum
taxes and taxes measured by any item of tax preference), (3) any taxes imposed
or assessed for work performed without the written authorization by Microsoft
after the date upon which this Agreement is terminated, (4) taxes based upon or
imposed with reference to StarTek's real and personal property ownership, (5)
taxes incurred by StarTek on all goods and services purchased from other related
or unrelated parties, and/or (6) any taxes similar to or in the nature of those
taxes described in (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) above. StarTek agrees to make
available to Microsoft any and all records necessary to comply with any and all
tax obligations as provided herein, including but not limited to reports
necessary for goods and services tax compliance and audit purposes. The contents
and form of such reports shall be mutually agreed to between the parties.

6.      SUBCONTRACTING.

        (a)     To Third Parties. StarTek shall not subcontract any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement, with respect to Manufacturing and
Supply and Services, except as follows:

                (1)     Prior to any subcontractor performing any such services
for StarTek under this Agreement, StarTek and its subcontractor shall enter into
a written agreement ("Subcontractor Agreement") that expressly provides that
Microsoft is a third party beneficiary of the Subcontractor Agreement with
rights to enforce such agreement should StarTek fail to timely do so; that
Microsoft, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to evaluate the
Subcontractor, either in person or in written form; and further that requires
Subcontractor to:

                        (A)     comply with the applicable obligations identical
to those imposed on StarTek under Sections 2, 5(b), 7(a), 8(a)(1), 9, 10, 11(c),
12, 13, 16(k), 16(1) and Exhibits A and B of this Agreement, and

                        (B)     halt reproduction of Product(s) as required
under this Agreement or upon notice from StarTek or Microsoft of the termination
or expiration of this Agreement, and

                        (C)     pay Microsoft's attorneys' fees if Microsoft
employs attorneys to enforce any rights arising out of the Subcontractor
Agreement; and

                (2)     StarTek guarantees its subcontractor's fulfillment of
the applicable obligations imposed on StarTek by this Agreement; and

                (3)     StarTek shall indemnify, defend and hold Microsoft
harmless for all damages and/or costs of any kind, including without limitation,
those incurred by Microsoft and caused by a breach of the Subcontractor
Agreement by a subcontractor and/or subcontractor's failure to fulfill the
applicable obligations imposed on StarTek by this Agreement, including, but not
limited to, StarTek's payment of any monetary judgments awarded to Microsoft by
a court of competent jurisdiction and any costs and fees relating thereto, not
paid by subcontractor, resulting from subcontractor's unauthorized replication
and/or distribution of Product(s) in accordance with the Subcontractor
Agreement; and

                (4)     Upon execution of this Agreement and thereafter prior to
a subcontractor performing any services under this Agreement, StarTek shall
provide Microsoft with a written certification, signed by a StarTek officer,
representing and warranting that StarTek is in compliance with the provisions of
Section 6 of this Agreement; and

                (5)     Microsoft, in its reasonable discretion, will provide an
approved CD and COA supplier list as seen in Exhibit F which may be updated by
Microsoft from time to

                                       12
<PAGE>

time. If a supplier used by StarTek as a subcontractor is removed from such list
by Microsoft, Microsoft acknowledges that StarTek may not be able to immediately
discontinue use of subcontractor. In such case, subject to other rights and
obligations of enforcement as set forth in the Agreement, Microsoft and StarTek
will mutually agree to a transition plan.

        (b)     Rights Pass Through. It is the intention of this section that
StarTek be able to subcontract, provided StarTek fully maintains quality
standards and protects Microsoft's property rights in Microsoft's Intellectual
Property and Deliverables such that, in addition to Microsoft's recourse to
StarTek under this Agreement, Microsoft shall also have rights enforceable
directly against the subcontractor. The responsibility and liability of StarTek
under this Agreement is not diminished on account of any subcontract and StarTek
shall be fully responsible for the subcontractors performance and work.

        (c)     Export Restrictions. StarTek hereby agrees that in
subcontracting portions of the Manufacturing and Supply and Services to third
parties pursuant to Section 6(a) or (b) above, StarTek shall not, directly or
indirectly, export or transmit (i) any Product Component, Product and/or
technical data or (ii) any Product (or any part thereof), process, or service
that is the direct product of a Product, to (a) any countries that are subject
to U.S. export restrictions (including as of the Effective Date, but not limited
to, the Afghanistan (Taliban controlled areas only), Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya,
North Korea, Sudan and Syria); (b) any end-user whom StarTek knows or has reason
to know will utilize such Product Component, Product and/or technical data in
the design, development or production of nuclear, chemical or biological
weapons; or (c) any other country to which such export or transmission is
restricted by the export control laws and regulations of the United States, and
any amendments thereof, without prior written consent, if required, of the
Bureau of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, or such
other governmental entity as may have jurisdiction over such export or
transactions, unless Microsoft specifically directs StarTek in writing to do so.

        (d)     StarTek Subcontracting Requirements. To the extent that StarTek
is providing products and/or performing services for Microsoft in the United
States pursuant to this Agreement and is authorized to obtain and does obtain
some or all of the products and/or services from any third party in fulfilling

                (1)     Small Businesses. At least * of the total amount paid by
StarTek to suppliers of Third. Party Products and/or Services shall be

Minority-Owned and Operated Businesses. For purposes of this section,
"Minority-Owned and Operated Businesses" shall mean businesses (a) which are at
least fifty-one percent (51%) owned by a Minority Person or Persons or, in the
case of any publicly owned business, at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the

By the * following each calendar quarter, StarTek shall complete all information
required on General Services Administration Standard Form 294 ("SF294") and
submit SF294 to Microsoft's Vendor Account Manager (the "VAM"). SF294, when
signed by an officer of StarTek, shall indicate StarTek's compliance with the
requirements of this section. The information provided by StarTek on SF294 shall
include, but may not be limited to, the name(s) of all third parties from which
StarTek obtains Third Party Products and/or Services and the total dollar amount
of such purchases for the preceding quarter. StarTek agrees that the total
dollar amount of such purchases shall not be co-reported or double-reported to
government agencies or other third parties. StarTek shall provide the VAM with
the name of a specific StarTek employee contact responsible for administration
of StarTek's obligations under this section (the "StarTek Contact").

If StarTek has used best efforts to fulfill its obligations under this section
(including the efforts identified in the preceding paragraph), but has failed to
do so for reasons beyond StarTek's reasonable control, then the StarTek Contact
shall:

                                1.      meet with the VAM and Supplier Diversity
Program Manager to discuss StarTek's efforts to comply with this section. If the
VAM and Supplier Diversity Program Manager determine that StarTek has made best,
but unsuccessful, efforts to be in compliance with this section, then, at
Microsoft's sole reasonable discretion, (a) Microsoft shall not enforce
StarTek's obligations under this section for a period not to exceed the
timeframe required by StarTek to comply with the provisions of subsection 2,

below, (b) Microsoft shall confirm the same in writing, and (c) Microsoft shall
not consider StarTek to be in breach of its obligations under this section, and

                                2.      develop, in conjunction with the VAM and
Supplier Diversity Program Manager, a mutually agreeable plan (including, but
not limited to, a compliance timeline, quarterly compliance milestones, and
quarterly reporting requirements) by which StarTek shall come into compliance
with its obligations under this section.

If, after meeting with the StarTek Contact as provided above, Microsoft
determines in its sole reasonable discretion that it is not feasible or
reasonable to require StarTek's full compliance with this section, Microsoft
shall either (a) modify the Small Business percentage requirements in order to
facilitate StarTek's compliance or (b) eliminate StarTek's obligation to comply
with this section in its entirety.

        (e)     Indemnification. If StarTek delivers Product(s) to a Customer
specified by Microsoft or at Microsoft's direction, Microsoft agrees to
indemnify StarTek for any consequent indirect violation of the export

enforce all rights against or obligations of any subcontractor(s) in order to

TO ANOTHER FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE OTHER
PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT RELY UPON THE INCLUSION OF THIS SECTION 8(c).

9.      CONFIDENTIALITY.

        (a)     General. Each party expressly undertakes to retain in confidence
the terms of this Agreement and the Agreement itself, along with all information
and know-how transmitted to or otherwise received by each party that the
disclosing party has identified as being proprietary and/or confidential or
that, by the nature of the circumstances surrounding the disclosure, ought in
good faith to be treated as proprietary and/or confidential (collectively,
"Confidential Information"), and will make no use of such Confidential
Information except under the terms and during the existence of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party may disclose the terms of this
Agreement to its outside legal and financial advisors with whom such party has a
confidential relationship and who are obligated to retain such information in
confidence, in the ordinary course of business. In addition, no party shall have
an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of information that (i) it
received rightfully from an unaffiliated third party prior to its receipt from
the disclosing party; (ii) the disclosing party has disclosed to an unaffiliated
third party without any obligation to maintain such information in confidence;
or (iii) is independently developed by the obligated party. Further, each party
may disclose Confidential Information as required by governmental or judicial
order, provided such party gives the disclosing party prompt written notice
prior to such disclosure, and complies with any protective order (or equivalent)
imposed on such disclosure, and provides the disclosing party the option of
either seeking a protective order or having its Confidential Information be
subject to the same protective orders as may apply to information of the party
subject to the governmental or judicial order. No party shall disclose,
disseminate or distribute any other party's Confidential Information to any
third party without the other's prior written permission. Each party's
obligation under this Section 8 shall extend to the earlier of such time as the
information protected hereby is in the public domain through no fault of the
obligated party

                                       18
<PAGE>

or five (5) years following termination or expiration of this Agreement. Each
party shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that their employees (and in the
case of StarTek, also its subcontractors) comply with this Section 9(a).

        (b)     Ownership Rights. Both parties agree that each has and shall
retain ownership rights to its own Confidential Information and that upon
completion or termination of this Agreement and request from the other party,
each party will return the other's Confidential Information regardless of the
media in which it is stored. For Microsoft, Confidential Information at least
and specifically includes, but is not limited to: (i) *. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if as a result of StarTek's performance of the Services, StarTek
enhances or improves Microsoft Customer lists, such enhancements or improvements
shall be the sole property of Microsoft. Both parties agree to return all
Confidential Information including, but not limited to, records released to
either party for marketing and distribution services, to either party
immediately upon either party's written request, and upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement.

        (c)     Injunctive Relief. Both parties acknowledge that unauthorized
disclosure or use of Confidential Information could cause irreparable harm and
significant injury which may be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, both
parties agree that the aggrieved party will have the right to seek and obtain
injunctive relief from breaches of this Agreement, in addition to any other
rights and remedies it may have.

        (d)     Facility Tours. Microsoft acknowledges that customers and
potential customers of StarTek may tour the Facility. Microsoft agrees that any
casual viewing during such a tour of Products that Microsoft has already
commercially released does not violate Section 9(a) above. * In the event that
Microsoft reasonably believes that additional security measures are necessary,
Microsoft will notify StarTek, and the parties will implement additional
mutually agreeable security procedures for so long as necessary.

assignment in violation of Section 16(a) of this Agreement, or (iii) experiences
an Insolvency Event of Default, as defined below. In addition to the foregoing,
Microsoft or StarTek may terminate this Agreement without cause with * notice in
writing. The rights and remedies provided herein to the parties shall not be
exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.
In the event a non-defaulting party in its discretion elects not to terminate
this Agreement, such election shall not be a waiver of any claims of that party
for a default(s). Further, the non-defaulting party may elect to leave this
Agreement in full force and effect and to institute legal action against the
defaulting party for specific performance and/or damages suffered by such party
as a result of the default(s). For purposes of this Agreement, an "Insolvency
Event of Default" shall be deemed to have occurred in the event the applicable

for the benefit of its creditors; (w) a proceeding is instituted, voluntarily or
otherwise, by or against any party seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or
insolvent, or seeking

replication and/or distribution of Product(s). StarTek will diligently attempt
to prevent any unauthorized replication and/or distribution of Product(s) by
StarTek employees or any subcontractor and will cooperate fully with Microsoft
to that end. Microsoft may, at its sole discretion, immediately terminate
StarTek's right to subcontract the replication and/or assembly of Product(s), in

this Section 16(a), no party may assign its rights or obligations under this
Agreement (by actual assignment or by operation of law, including without
limitation through a merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, or sale or other
disposition of assets, including disposition on dissolution), without the prior
written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Microsoft may, however, assign this Agreement to a Microsoft
subsidiary without the consent of StarTek. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
is a contract for personal services and Microsoft relies upon the
qualifications, reputation and expertise of StarTek to perform all obligations
hereunder. In particular, Microsoft relies upon StarTek's history of performance
over more than * of operation,

        (b)     Controlling Law. This Agreement shall be construed and
controlled by the laws of the State of Washington, and StarTek consents to
jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts sitting in the State of
Washington. Process may be served on any party in the manner set forth in

by Washington law or court rule.

        (c)     No Partnership/Joint Venture/Agency/Franchise. This Agreement
shall not be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture,
employer-employee or agency relationship or as granting a franchise.

                                       27
<PAGE>

        (e)     Attorneys' Fees. If any party employs attorneys to enforce any
rights arising out of or relating to Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and other expenses.

        (f)     Waiver. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this

        (g)     Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement

any provisions.

        (h)     Governmental Approvals. Each party shall, at its own expense,
obtain and arrange for the maintenance in full force and effect of any and all
governmental approvals, consents, licenses, authorizations, declarations,

of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

        (i)     Force Majeure.

                (1)     Except as otherwise provided in this Section 16(i),

restricted to, acts of God, acts of the Government, fires, floods, epidemics,
quarantine restrictions, strikes, lock-outs, freight embargoes and unusually
severe weather. This Section shall also apply to StarTek's contractors where a

* after StarTek becomes aware of any circumstances or event which may reasonably
be anticipated to cause or constitute, or which constitute a force majeure as
described in Section 16(i)(1), above. Such notice shall contain a detailed
description of the delay and of the affected portion of the Agreement. Within a
further * after such notice, StarTek shall deliver a detailed written
description of the work-around plan, alternative sources, and any other
reasonable means that StarTek shall, at its own cost, use to prevent such
further delay.

                (3)     If the delivery of any Products shall be delayed by
reason of force majeure for more than * beyond when delivery was scheduled,
Microsoft may upon written notice to StarTek with respect to the undelivered

3.      FORECASTS

        3.1     * Rolling Forecast:

                Microsoft will provide a * rolling forecast for weeks * for all
                Products anticipated to be built by the Company (reference
                attachment 1). This

                                       33
<PAGE>

                forecast may be used by the Company at the Company's discretion
                for planning and procuring raw materials. Microsoft may change
                the forecast up to the issuance of a *, followed by a Microsoft
                Purchase Order, with no penalty or responsibility for any raw
                materials, Product Components, or Product acquired/built to such
                forecast, with the exception that certain long lead-time
                components may be procured in advance of the frozen build signal
                with agreement by the VAM.

        3.2     Manufacturing Systems

                The company shall perform procurement, scheduling and
                manufacturing activities on their own manufacturing system(s).
                Microsoft will not be responsible for providing the Company with
                any manufacturing system.

4.      PURCHASE ORDER PROCEDURES

        4.1     Purchase Orders (PO)

                During the term of the Agreement, Microsoft will issue a *
                frozen build signal, in the form of an Excel spreadsheet, to the
                Company by * for Finished Product Units for * (reference
                attachment 2). Within *, a PO will be issued that requires
                Finished Product Units to be prepared and delivered to a
                distribution center the * following the * or direct to
                designated customers on a scheduled agreed to by Microsoft and
                the Company in advance of shipment. The purchase order will
                include but not be limited to the SKU, quantity, price and
                required delivery date. Microsoft may prioritize Products on the
                PO so Company will be able to build more urgent requirements
                first. The purchase order will officially authorize the Company
                to manufacture Microsoft Products. Microsoft accepts ownership
                and liability for only those quantities of raw materials
                purchased, and finished goods built, that meet the * frozen
                build signal, unless prior arrangements have been made in
                writing and agreed to by both parties.

        4.2     Once Microsoft has issued a PO, Microsoft may change the build
                requirements or issue engineering change notices (ECN)
                corresponding to that PO, but raw materials procured by the
                Company to fulfill such PO, in accordance with section 4.1, that
                are left unused will be the responsibility of Microsoft. Company
                may charge Microsoft for the storage of any such unused raw
                materials at the rate of $* commencing when the materials are
                stored. If any such materials remain in storage at the end of *
                after fulfillment of the PO, Microsoft will reimburse Company
                for the cost of such raw materials. In order to be reimbursed by
                Microsoft, the Company must provide a raw material inventory age
                report for which Microsoft owns liability upon expiration of the
                * holding period. In case of an ECN that stops and/or starts a
                component, the Company must notify Microsoft of the related
                charges within * of the change

                                       34
<PAGE>

                order. Related charges will be tracked and reviewed at *
                management meetings. This notification must include the
                Microsoft ECN#, the component part number and the quantity that
                Microsoft is liable for. Microsoft will determine and
                communicate in writing whether or not to scrap any raw material
                or finished goods and reimburse the Company accordingly.

        4.3     Microsoft intends to remit payment to the Company via the auto
                voucher process, for all Finished Product Units upon receipt of
                the po quantity by the applicable distribution turnkey vendor
                ("DTV") or from another Microsoft-authorized entity in the event
                the shipment does not deliver to a DTV. All error-free invoices
                submitted by the Company will be paid within the payment terms
                of the Agreement. When invoice discrepancies are found, invoices
                will be immediately rearmed to the company for correction and
                re-submittal. Corrected invoices submitted to Microsoft must
                reflect a revised invoice date (not the original invoice date).
                It is in the Company's best interest to submit error-free
                invoices to Microsoft for prompt payment, as invoice errors will
                delay Microsoft payment to the Company. Microsoft will make
                payments for services in US dollars.

5.      FINISHED GOODS TRANSACTION REPORT AND RECEIPTS

                5.1.1   Company must notify Microsoft immediately * of any
                        inventory movements that may require inventory
                        adjustments. Adjustments include but are not limited to
                        quality issues, cycle count adjustments, rework, and
                        site to site stock transfers.

6.      PROCUREMENT

        6.1     Company will be responsible for procuring all raw materials for
                assembly. Raw materials procured must meet Microsoft Global

                Microsoft may at times designate 'Approved Subcontractors' for
                certain raw material components such as security components,
                third party pieces and hardware. Microsoft may at times supply
                raw material to the Company. The Company will be notified of the
                approved subcontractors. All raw materials that the Company
                procures are subject to audit at the Company's Facility for

                     Re:  Amended, Restated and Consolidated
                          Subordinated Loan Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

       This letter sets forth our agreement (the "Agreement") to amend, restate
and consolidate those certain (i) Loan Agreement, dated as of November 1, 1999,
(ii) Loan Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2000, and (iii) Loan Agreement, dated
as of October 2, 2000 (collectively, the "Prior Loan Agreements"), each by and
among The Reader's Digest Association, Inc. ("RDA"), Domain.com, Inc. ("Domain";
collectively with RDA, the "Lenders") and Gifts.com, Inc. (the "Borrower"), each
a Delaware corporation.

       1.    The Loans. Pursuant to the Prior Loan Agreements, RDA is owed
$26,443,125.00 and Domain is owed $9,806,875.00 in outstanding principal (the
"Subordinated Loans"), together with accrued and unpaid interest.  Effective as
of the date hereof, the terms of the Subordinated Loans are hereby modified as
follows:

             (a)    Interest. Each Subordinated Loan bears interest at a rate
equal to the rate applicable to a three month LIBOR rate loan plus 2% per annum
computed on the basis of a 360-day year or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted
by law. Commencing on the date hereof, RDA hereby waives interest accruing on
its Subordinated Loans to the Borrower up to a maximum amount of $5,000,000.00,
and Domain hereby waives interest accruing on its Subordinated Loans to the
Borrower up to a maximum amount of $1,250,000.00.  For purposes of determining
this waiver, accruing interest shall continue to be calculated at the rate of
three month LIBOR plus 2% per annum computed on the basis of a 360-day year.

             (b)    Payments. Each Subordinated Loan shall mature on the
later of (i) August 31, 2002 and (ii) the date of indefeasible payment of all
amounts due under the Loan Agreement between RDA and the Borrower (the
"Senior Loan Agreement") and the Senior Promissory Note in favor of RDA in the
aggregate principal amount of $15,000,000.00 (the "Senior Note"), each dated as
of September 30, 2001.

             (c)    Prepayments.  The Borrower may, if and to the extent that
the Senior Loans (as described below) shall have been paid in full, prepay all
or any portion of the Subordinated Loans in minimum amounts of the lesser of
$100,000 or the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Loans, together
with interest thereon accrued and unpaid to the date of prepayment without
premium or penalty.
<PAGE>
              (d)   Accelerated Maturity Upon an Initial Public Offering. At
the option of the Lenders, all Subordinated Loans shall immediately become due
upon the receipt by the Borrower of proceeds of an initial public offering of
its common stock pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

              (e)   No Reborrowing.  The Subordinated Loans may not be
reborrowed.

              (f)   Replacement Notes.  Upon execution and delivery of this
Agreement, each of RDA and Domain is surrendering the promissory notes described
in Exhibit A hereto in its possession which evidence the Subordinated Loans.
Upon receipt, the Borrower shall mark such notes "cancelled" and issue new
Subordinated Promissory Notes (the "Subordinated Notes") to each of RDA and
Domain, to evidence its Subordinated Loan to the Borrower. The Subordinated
Notes shall be in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto.

       2.    Subordination. The Subordinated Loans are subordinate and junior in
right of payment to the amounts advanced to or owed by the Borrower to RDA
pursuant to the Senior Loan Agreement (the "Senior Loans") and the Senior Note.

             (a)    Events of Default under the Senior Loan Agreement.  Upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default provided under the Senior Loan Agreement
(the "Senior Loan Default") then, unless and until such Senior Loan Default
shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or
indirect payment (in cash, property or set-off or otherwise, except that payment
may be made by delivery of subordinated notes of the same type) shall be made on
account of the principal of, or prepayment premium, if any, or any other amount
in respect of, or interest on, any Subordinated Loan, or in respect of any
redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any Subordinated Loan,
during any period:

                     (i)   commencing on the date such Senior Loan Default shall
first occur and ending on the date on which such Senior Loan Default shall have
been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or

                     (ii)  in which any judicial proceeding or any other
proceeding or action (whether judicial or otherwise) seeking to foreclose or
otherwise realize on any collateral shall be pending in respect of such Senior
Loan Default, or in which the maturity of the Senior Loans shall have been
accelerated in respect of such Senior Loan Default and such acceleration shall
not have been annulled.

             (b)    Notice by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall give written
notice to each holder of Subordinated Loans of (i) any Senior Loan Default and
(ii) events described in Section 2(a)(i) and (ii) immediately upon the
occurrence or receipt thereof, as the case may be.

                                       2
<PAGE>
      (e)    Insolvency, etc. In the event of:

             (i)    any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation,
reorganization, readjustment, composition or other similar proceeding relating
to the Borrower, its creditors or its property;

             (ii)   any proceeding for the liquidation, dissolution or other
winding-up of the Borrower, voluntary or involuntary, whether or not involving
insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings;

             (iii)  any assignment by the Borrower for the benefit of creditors;
or

             (iv)   any other marshalling of the assets of the Borrower,

first, all Senior Loans shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or
distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to
any holder of any Subordinated Loan on account of any Subordinated Loans.  Any
payment or distribution, whether made in cash, securities, or other property and
whether made directly or indirectly, that would otherwise (but for this
subsection (c)) be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Loans
shall first be paid or delivered directly to the holder of the Senior Loans
until all Senior Loans shall have been paid in full in cash and second be paid
or delivered directly to the holders of the Subordinated Loans in accordance
with the priorities then existing among such holders until all Subordinated
Loans shall have been paid in full in cash.

      (d)    Limited Suspension of Remedies of Holders of Subordinated Loans. No
holder of Subordinated Loans may:

             (i)    declare or join in the declaration of any Subordinated Loan
to be due and payable or otherwise accelerate the maturity of the principal of
the Subordinated Notes, accrued interest thereon or prepayment premium or other
amounts due thereunder, or

             (ii)   commence any administrative, legal or equitable action
against the Borrower at any time during any period during which payment on the
Subordinated Loans shall be prohibited pursuant to the terms of Section 2(a)
hereof.

       (e)   Proof of Claim.  Each holder of the Subordinated Loans irrevocably
authorizes and empowers the holder of the Senior Loans in any proceeding under
any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any other reorganization,
dissolution or liquidation proceedings or the Borrower to file a proof of claim
on behalf of such holder of the Subordinated Loans with respect to the
Subordinated Loans and the other amounts owing hereunder and the Subordinated
Notes if (and only if) such holder of the Subordinated Loans fails to file proof
of its claims prior to ten (10) days before the expiration of the time period
during which such proof of claim must be filed. Neither this Section 2(e) nor
any other provision hereof, shall be construed to give the holder of the Senior
Loans any right to vote any Subordinated Loans or any related claim, whether in
connection with any resolution, arrangement, plan of reorganization, compromise,
settlement, election, or otherwise.

                                       3
<PAGE>
             (f)    Acceleration of Subordinated Loans. In the event that any
Subordinated Loans shall be declared due and payable as the result of the
occurrence of any one or more Events of Default as provided in Section 4 hereof,
under circumstances when the terms of Section 2(a) do not prohibit payment on
the Subordinated Loans, no payment shall be made in respect of any Subordinated
Loan unless and until all Senior Loans shall have been paid in full in cash or
such declaration and its consequences shall have been rescinded and all such
Events of Default shall have been remedied or waived or shall have ceased to
exist.

             (g)    Turnover of Payments. If:

                    (i)    any payment or distribution shall be collected or
received by any holders of Subordinated Loans in contravention of any of the
terms of this Section 2 and prior to the payment in full in cash of the Senior
Loans at the time outstanding; and

                    (ii)   the Borrower shall have notified such holders of
Subordinated Loans of the facts by reason of which such collection or receipt so
contravenes this Section 2;

then such holders of Subordinated Loans will deliver such payment or
distribution, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Loans in full in
cash, to the holder of such Senior Loans and, until so delivered, the same
shall be held in trust by such holders of Subordinated Loans as the property of
the holder of such Senior Loans.  If after any amount is delivered to the
holder of Senior Loans pursuant to the Section 2(g), whether or not such
amounts have been applied to the payment of Senior Loans, and the outstanding
Senior Loans shall thereafter be paid in full in cash by the Borrower or
otherwise other than pursuant to this Section 2(g), the holder of Senior Loans
shall return to such holders of Subordinated Loans an amount equal to the
amount delivered to the holder of Senior Loans pursuant to this Section 2(g).

             (h)    Obligations Not Impaired.

                    (i)    No Impairment of Senior Loans.  No right of any
present or future holder of any Senior Loans to enforce the subordination as
herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any
act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or by any act or failure to
act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any non-compliance by the Borrower
with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement, regardless of any
knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. Without
in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, the holder of Senior Loans
may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to any
holder of any Subordinated Loans and without impairing or releasing the
subordination provided in this Section 2 or the obligations hereunder of the
holders of Subordinated Loans to the holder of Senior Loans, do any one or more
of the following:

                           (1)    amend or supplement in any manner any
document or instrument evidencing Senior Loans; provided, however, that in no
event shall the principal amount of Senior Loans entitled to the benefits of
this Section 2 be increased as a result of any such amendment or supplement;

                           (2)    sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with
any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Loans;

                                       4
<PAGE>

                                (3)     release any person liable in any manner
for the collection of Senior Loans; and

                                (4)     exercise or refrain from exercising any
rights against the Borrower and another person.

                        (ii)    No Impairment of Subordinated Loans. Nothing
contained in this Section 2(h)(ii) shall impair, as between the Borrower and any
holder of Subordinated Loans, the obligation of the Borrower to pay to such
holder the principal thereof and prepayment premium, if any, and interest
thereon as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, or prevent any holder of any Subordinated Loans from
exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law
or under this Agreement, subject to the rights of the holder of the Senior
Loans, to receive cash, securities or other property otherwise payable or
deliverable to the holders of Subordinated Loans.

                (i)     Payment of Debt; Subrogation. Upon the payment in full
of all Senior Loans in cash, the holders of Subordinated Loans shall be
subrogated to all rights of any holder of Senior Loans to receive any further
payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Loans until the Subordinated
Loans shall have been paid in full, and such payments or distributions received
by the holders of Subordinated Loans by reason of such subrogation, of cash,
securities or other property which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the
holder of Senior Loans, shall as between the Borrower and its creditors other
than the holder of Senior Loans, on the one hand, and the holders of
Subordinated Loans, on the other hand, be deemed to be payment by the Borrower
on account of Senior Loans and not on account of Subordinated Loans.

                (j)     Reliance of Holders of Senior Loans; Amendments.

                        (i)     Reliance of Holders of Senior Loans. Each holder
of Subordinated Loans by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to acknowledge
and agree that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to
be, an inducement to and a consideration of the holder of the Senior Loans,
whether such Senior Loans were created or acquired before or after the creation
of Subordinated Loans, to acquire and hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior
Loans, and such holder of the Senior Loans shall be deemed conclusively to have
relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and holding, or in
continuing to hold, such Senior Loans.

                        (ii)    Amendments. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 2(a) hereof, no amendment, waiver or other modification of this Section
2 shall be effective unless such amendment, waiver or other modification shall
have been approved in writing by the holder of Senior Loans outstanding at the
time of such amendment, waiver or other modification.

                (k)     Notices. Whenever any notice to holder of the Senior
Note shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2, the holder
of Senior Loans shall be deemed to have given such notice if such notice shall
have been delivered to RDA.

                                       5

        3.      Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Borrower
represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

                (a)     The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower
of this Agreement and the Subordinated Notes do not contravene any law or any
contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower and will not result
in or require the creation of any lien, security interest or other charge or
encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Borrower's properties.

                (b)     Except as already obtained, no consent, approval,
authorization or other order of any  person and no consent, authorization,
approval, or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental
authority or regulatory body is required to be made for the execution, delivery
or performance of this Agreement and the Subordinated Notes by the Borrower.

                (c)     Each of this Agreement and the Subordinated Notes has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and each
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors
generally or by the application of general equity principles.

                (d)     There are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness
of this Agreement and the Subordinated Notes that have not been satisfied or
waived.

                (e)     The address of the Borrower set forth in Section 5(a) is

each of the Lenders in writing within sixty (60) days following any change of
such address.

        4.      Events of Default. If one or more of the following events (an
"Event of Default") shall occur:

                (a)     Default in the punctual payment in full when due of any
principal amount of, or interest on, the Subordinated Loans; or

                (b)     Any representation or warranty made by the Borrower
under or in connection with this Agreement or the Subordinated Notes shall
prove to have been incorrect when made; or

                (c)     The Borrower shall be insolvent or generally cease
paying, or be unable to pay, its debts as they become due or shall make any
admission in writing to the foregoing effect; or the occurrence of any default
or event of default (after giving effect to any applicable grace or cure
periods) under any instrument or agreement evidencing debt; or a substantial
part of the operations of the Borrower shall be suspended; or the Borrower shall
make an assignment for the benefit or creditors; or the Borrower shall commence,
as debtor, a case under the Federal Bankruptcy Code as now or hereinafter in
effect; or shall commence any proceeding with respect to itself or a substantial
portion of its property under any other insolvency, bankruptcy arrangement,
reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or similar law; or a court of competent
jurisdiction shall enter an order or relief against the Borrower as debtor in a
case under the

                                       6

<PAGE>

Federal Bankruptcy Code; or a case under the Federal Bankruptcy Code shall be
commenced against the Borrower or any proceeding under any other insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, dissolution or similar law
of the United States shall be commenced against the Borrower or the Borrower
shall consent to or admit the material allegations against it in any such case
or proceeding; or a trustee, receiver or similar officer shall be appointed for
all or a substantial part of the property of the Borrower and the Borrower shall
consent thereto;

then, upon the happening of any of the foregoing Events of Default and at any
time thereafter so long as such Events of Defaults shall be continuing, subject
to Section 2 hereof, each of the Lenders may by declaration delivered to the
Borrower, demand the immediate payments of the Subordinated Notes, the
Subordinated Loans and all fees and other amounts payable by the Borrower
hereunder, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable;
provided, that upon the happening of any event specified in clause (c) above and
all obligations under the Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated Loans or
otherwise shall be immediately due and payable, all without declaration or
notice to the Borrower. The Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, (A) all presentations, demands for performance, notices of
non-performance, protests, notices or protests, notices of intent to accelerate,
notice of dishonor in connection with the Subordinated Notes or any of the
Subordinated Loans, (B) any requirement of diligence or promptness on the part
of each of the Lenders, (C) any and all notices of every kind or description
that may be required by statute or law and any defense of any kind that it may
not or hereafter have, and (D) any defense of any kind (except payment) that it
may now or hereafter have with respect to its liability under this Agreement or
the Subordinated Notes.

        (5)     Miscellaneous.
