Commitment and/or (ii) declare the Loans and all other Obligations to be
immediately due and payable.

         8.2 Additional Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, Lender may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies
granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement
securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of
a creditor, whether secured or unsecured, under the Code or under any other
applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Debtor agrees
that in any such event, Lender, without notice or demand of any kind (except the
notice specified below of the time and place of public or private sale) to or
upon Debtor or any other Person (all and each of which demands and/or notices
are hereby expressly waived), may forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and
realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell,
lease, assign, give option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and
deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or
more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange or broker's
board or at any of Lender's offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem
best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any
credit risk. Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, to
the extent permitted by law, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral
so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Debtor, which right or
equity is hereby expressly released. Lender shall apply the net proceeds of any
such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization, disposition or
sale (after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred
by Lender or incidental to the sale, disposition, care, safekeeping, preparation
for sale or otherwise of any or all of the Collateral or in any way relating to
the rights of Lender hereunder, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal
expenses) to the payment in whole or to part of the Obligations, in such order
as Lender may elect and only after so applying such net proceeds and after the
payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, shall
Lender account for the surplus, if any, to Debtor. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, Debtor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Lender
arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral. Debtor
agrees that Lender need not give more than ten (10) days notice (which
notification shall be deemed given when mailed in accordance with Section 9.2)
of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private
sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such
matters. Debtor shall be liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale
or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and all
other amounts to which Lender is entitled.

         8.3 Cumulative Remedies. Lender's rights and remedies under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and may be exercised
singularly or concurrently. Lender has all rights and remedies provided under
this Agreement, the Code, by law, or in equity. Lender's exercise of any right
or remedy is not an election, and no failure or delay on the part of Lender in
exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege.

         8.4 Waiver by Debtor. Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest
or any notice, except as expressly provided in Section 8 (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or
any Collateral. To the extent permitted by the Code or other applicable law,
Debtor waives any rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise
which limit or modify any of Lender's rights or remedies under this Agreement.

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS.

         9.1 Joint and Several Obligations. If Debtor consists of more than one
person or entity, all Obligations of Debtor under this Agreement shall be joint
and several, and all references to Debtor shall mean each and every Debtor.

         9.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon any party

commenced by Lender, which are incurred by Seller to enforce or interpret any of
the Loan Documents or collect any Obligations due to Lender, including, without
limitation, (i) the reasonable costs and fees of a collection agency; and (ii)

              (a) THE VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS
(UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN RESPECT
OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT), THE CONSTRUCTION, INTERPRETATION, AND ENFORCEMENT
HEREOF AND THEREOF, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO WITH
RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR RELATED HERETO OR

OR THE COLLATERAL IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO
EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR

IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES

         9.12 Severability; Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. If a
court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement or other
Loan Documents to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance,
such finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any
other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any such offending provision shall
be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity;
however, if the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken
and all other provisions of this Agreement in all other respects shall remain
valid and enforceable. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable
under the Notes, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith or
therewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Debtor
and Lender, in executing and delivering this Agreement and the Notes, intend
legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated
therein; 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 as of the date of this
Agreement, Debtor is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as
allowed by law, and payment received from Debtor in excess of such legal
maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of
the Obligations owing by it to the extent of such excess.

                                                                    Page 9 of 15

         This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Loan and Security
Agreement Number 1506 between Debtor and Lender (as the same may from time to
time be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the "Agreement"), is
secured as provided in the Agreement, and is subject to the terms and provisions
thereof. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given

         If a payment is more than ten (10) days late, Debtor will be assessed a
late fee and charged five percent (5%) of such payment.

protest and notice of dishonor. Upon any change in the terms of this Note, and
unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party who signs this Note,
whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser, shall be released
from liability. All such parties agree that Lender may renew, or extend
(repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan, or release any party or

interest in the collateral; or take any other action deemed reasonably necessary
