<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt">SECOND AMENDMENT<BR>
TO<BR>
<U>LOAN DOCUMENTS</U>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Second Amendment to Loan Documents is entered into as of May&nbsp;27, 2004 (the &#147;Amendment&#148;),
by and between COMERICA BANK (&#147;Bank&#148;), ALLIANCE CONSULTING GROUP ASSOCIATES, INC. (&#147;Consulting&#148;)
and ALLIANCE HOLDINGS, INC., (&#147;Holdings&#148;; Alliance and Holdings are referred to herein individually
as a &#147;Borrower&#148; and collectively, the &#147;Borrowers&#148;).


<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><U>RECITALS</U>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Borrowers and Bank are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of
September&nbsp;25, 2003, as amended, including without limitation by that certain First Amendment to
Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December&nbsp;12, 2003 (collectively, the &#147;Agreement&#148;) and that
certain LIBOR Addendum to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September&nbsp;25, 2003 (the &#147;LIBOR
Addendum&#148;). The parties desire to amend the Agreement and the LIBOR Addendum in accordance with
the terms of this Amendment.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;The following defined terms in Section&nbsp;1.1 of the Agreement are hereby amended to read as
follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Credit Extension&#148; means each Advance, extension of ACH services, Letter of
Credit, or any other extension of credit by Bank for the benefit of a Borrower
hereunder.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;ACH Sublimit&#148; means a sublimit for Automated Clearing House transactions under
the Revolving Line not to exceed $150,000.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;The first sentence of Section&nbsp;2.1(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
&#147;Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may request Advances in
an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing
Base, <U>minus</U>, in each case, the ACH Sublimit and the aggregate face amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.&nbsp;Section&nbsp;2.1(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) &#091;<U>Intentionally Omitted</U>.&#093;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.&nbsp;A new Section&nbsp;2.1(d) is hereby added to the Agreement to read as follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <U>Letters of Credit</U>.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at any time prior to
the Revolving Maturity Date, Bank agrees to issue or cause to be issued letters of
credit for the account of a Borrower (each, a &#147;Letter of Credit&#148; and collectively,
the &#147;Letters of Credit&#148;) in an aggregate outstanding face amount not to exceed the
lesser of the Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base minus, in each case, the
aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances and the ACH Sublimit, provided that the
aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed
$400,000. All Letters of Credit shall be, in form and substance, acceptable to Bank
in its sole discretion and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Bank&#146;s
form of standard application and letter of credit agreement (the &#147;Application&#148;),
which Borrowers hereby agree to execute, including Bank&#146;s standard fee equal to 1.5%
per annum of the face amount of each Letter of Credit. On any drawn but
unreimbursed Letter of Credit, the unreimbursed amount

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">


<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">shall be deemed an Advance under Section&nbsp;2.1(a). Prior to the Revolving
Maturity Date, Borrowers shall secure in cash all obligations under any outstanding
Letters of Credit on terms acceptable to Bank.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Bank for drawings made under
Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be
performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Application,
and such Letters of Credit, under all circumstances whatsoever. Borrowers shall
indemnify, defend, protect, and hold Bank harmless from any loss, cost, expense or
liability, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys&#146; fees, arising out of
or in connection with any Letters of Credit, except for expenses caused by Bank&#146;s
gross negligence or willful misconduct.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.&nbsp;Section&nbsp;2.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 <U>Overadvances</U>. If the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances
<U>plus</U> the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit
<U>plus</U> the ACH Sublimit exceeds the lesser of the Revolving Line or the
Borrowing Base at any time, Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank, in cash, the
amount of such excess.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.&nbsp;A new Section&nbsp;14 is hereby added to the Agreement to read as follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. REFERENCE PROVISION.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If and only if the jury trial waiver set forth in Section&nbsp;11 of this Agreement
is invalidated for any reason by a court of law, statute or otherwise, the reference
provisions set forth below shall be substituted in place of the jury trial waiver.
So long as the jury trial waiver remains valid, the reference provisions set forth
in this Section shall be inapplicable.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each controversy, dispute or claim (each, a &#147;Claim&#148;) between the parties
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any security agreement executed by a
Borrower in favor of Bank, any note executed by a Borrower in favor of Bank or any
other document, instrument or agreement executed by a Borrower with or in favor of
Bank (collectively in this Section, the &#147;Loan Documents&#148;), other than (i)&nbsp;all
matters in connection with nonjudicial foreclosure of security interests in real or
personal property; or (ii)&nbsp;the appointment of a receiver or the exercise of other
provisional remedies (any of which may be initiated pursuant to applicable law) that
are not settled in writing within fifteen (15)&nbsp;days after the date on which a party
subject to the Loan Documents gives written notice to all other parties that a Claim
exists (the &#147;Claim Date&#148;) shall be resolved by a reference proceeding in California
in accordance with the provisions of Section&nbsp;638 et seq. of the California Code of
Civil Procedure, or their successor sections (&#147;CCP&#148;), which shall constitute the
exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim concerning the Loan Documents,
including whether such Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as set
forth in this section, the parties waive the right to initiate legal proceedings
against each other concerning each such Claim. Venue for these proceedings shall be
in the Superior Court in the County where the real property, if any, is located or
in a County where venue is otherwise appropriate under state law (the &#147;Court&#148;). By
mutual agreement, the parties shall select a retired Judge of the Court to serve as
referee, and if they cannot so agree within fifteen (15)&nbsp;days after the Claim Date,
the Presiding Judge of the Court (or his or her representative) shall promptly
select the referee. A request for appointment of a referee may be heard on an ex
parte or expedited basis. The referee shall be appointed to sit as a temporary
judge, with all the powers for a temporary judge, as authorized by law, and upon
selection should take and subscribe to the oath of office as provided for in Rule
244 of the California Rules of Court (or any subsequently enacted Rule). Each party
shall have one peremptory challenge pursuant to CCP &#167;170.6. Upon being selected,
the referee shall (a)&nbsp;be requested to set the matter for a status and trial-setting
conference within fifteen (15)&nbsp;days after the date of selection and (b)&nbsp;if
practicable, try any and all issues of law or fact and report a statement of
decision upon them within ninety (90)&nbsp;days of the date of selection. The

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">


<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">referee will have power to expand or limit the amount of discovery a party may
employ. Any decision rendered by the referee will be final, binding and conclusive,
and judgment shall be entered pursuant to CCP &#167;644 in any court in the State of
California having jurisdiction. The parties shall complete all discovery no later
than fifteen (15)&nbsp;days before the first trial date established by the referee. The
referee may extend such period in the event of a party&#146;s refusal to provide
requested discovery for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, legal
objections raised to such discovery or unavailability of a witness due to absence or
illness. No party shall be entitled to &#147;priority&#148; in conducting discovery. Either
party may take depositions upon seven (7)&nbsp;days written notice, and shall respond to
requests for production or inspection of documents within ten (10)&nbsp;days after
service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved by the parties
shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be final and binding upon the
parties. Pending appointment of the referee as provided herein, the Superior Court
is empowered to issue temporary and/or provisional remedies, as appropriate.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except as expressly set forth herein, the referee shall determine the
manner in which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place
of all hearings, the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions that
arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. Except for trial, all
proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee shall be conducted without a
court reporter unless a party requests a court reporter. The party making such a
request shall have the obligation to arrange for and pay for the court reporter.
Subject to the referee&#146;s power to award costs to the prevailing party, the parties
shall equally bear the costs of the court reporter at the trial and the referee&#146;s
expenses



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The referee shall determine all issues in accordance with existing
California case and statutory law. California rules of evidence applicable to
proceedings at law will apply to the reference proceeding. The referee shall be
empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, to provide all temporary
and/or provisional remedies and to enter equitable orders that shall be binding upon
the parties. At the close of the reference proceeding, the referee shall issue a
single judgment at disposing of all the claims of the parties that are the subject
of the reference. The parties reserve the right (i)&nbsp;to contest or appeal from the
final judgment or any appealable order or appealable judgment entered by the referee
and (ii)&nbsp;to obtain findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement of
decision, and (iii)&nbsp;to move for a new trial or a different judgment, which new
trial, if granted, shall be a reference proceeding under this provision.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee is
repealed (and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that
would otherwise be determined by the reference procedure herein described will be
resolved and determined by arbitration conducted by a retired judge of the Court, in
accordance with the California Arbitration Act &#167;1280 through &#167;1294.2 of the CCP as
amended from time to time. The limitations with respect to discovery as set forth
in this Section shall apply to any such arbitration proceeding.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.&nbsp;<U>Exhibit&nbsp;C</U> to the Agreement is hereby amended to read as <U>Exhibit&nbsp;C</U> attached
hereto.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.&nbsp;Section&nbsp;2(a) of the LIBOR Addendum is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A rate equal to (i)&nbsp;the Prime Rate as referenced in the Loan Agreement and
quoted from time to time by Bank as such rate may change from time to time
<U>minus</U> (ii)&nbsp;one half of one percent (0.50%) (the &#147;Prime Rate Option&#148;); or


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.&nbsp;Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as
defined in the Agreement and the LIBOR Addendum. The Agreement and the LIBOR Addendum, as amended
hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms and
hereby are ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the
execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an
amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of Bank under the

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Agreement and the LIBOR Addendum, as in effect prior to the date hereof. Each Borrower
ratifies and reaffirms the continuing effectiveness of all promissory notes, guaranties, security
agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, environmental agreements, and all other instruments,
documents and agreements entered into in connection with the Agreement.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.&nbsp;Each Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in
the Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.&nbsp;This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.&nbsp;As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form
and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;this Amendment, duly executed by Borrowers;

necessary or appropriate.

written.
