-4-
one hundred and eighty (180) days between such field examinations/audits
and a limit of five (5) business days per such field examination/audit;

outstanding balance of the Obligations for the 180 day period (or lesser
period if applicable) preceding the date of termination, if such early
termination occurs after the first anniversary of the Third Amendment
Effective Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Third
Amendment Effective Date; or (ii) one percent (1%) of the average daily
outstanding balance of the Obligations for the 180-day period preceding the
date of termination, if such early termination occurs after the second
anniversary of the Third Amendment Effective Date. The Termination Fee
shall be presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by Lender as a
result of the early termination, and Borrower agrees that because it is
difficult to calculate such damages, the Termination Fee provided for
herein is reasonable under the circumstances."
-5-

Agreement, as long as (i) Borrower shall maintain excess borrowing availability

make loans or other advances permitted by Paragraph 15(B) to executives who
are Affiliates and make payments to E-Ticket to the extent permitted under
the Subordination Agreement between Lender and E-Ticket and, if no Event of
Default has occurred, Borrower may engage in transactions with Affiliates

-7-
"(L) Affiliate Transactions.
(i) sell, transfer, distribute or pay any money or property to

any Affiliate other than Regam; provided, however, that if (A) no
Event of Default exists and (B) no act or event has occurred which,
with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, would
constitute an Event of Default, then Borrower may engage in
transactions with any Affiliate other than Regam in the normal course
of business, in amounts and upon terms which are fully disclosed to
Lender and which are no less favorable to Borrower than would be
obtainable in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person who
is not an Affiliate;
(ii) sell, transfer, distribute or pay any money or property to
Regam, except on the following terms and subject to the following

perfected security interest in such money or property, or (2) both
before and after having given effect to such sale, transfer,
distribution or payment, Borrower shall have excess borrowing
availability of at least One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars

arising out of the Environmental Certificate), and notwithstanding which entity
constituting Borrower receives a particular advance of the Total Facility, each
entity constituting Borrower hereby reaffirms the grant to Lender of or grants
to Lender, as the case may be, a security interest in all of such Borrower's now
owned or hereafter acquired or arising Inventory, Equipment, Receivables, the
Life Insurance Policies and the proceeds thereof, Trademarks, Licenses and

hereafter in Lender's possession (including claims and credit balances), and all

claims against third parties), all products and all books and records related to
any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing, together with all other property in
which Lender may be granted a lien or security interest, is referred to herein,
collectively, as the "Collateral"; provided, however, that, with respect solely

Corporation, a New Jersey corporation, LOGETRONICS CORPORATION, a New York
corporation, VISIPLEX INSTRUMENTS CORPORATION, a New York corporation formerly
known as Xenon Industries, Inc. and REGAM MEDICAL SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL AB, a
Swedish corporation ("Regam") (all of the foregoing, individually and
collectively "Debtor"), jointly and severally promise to pay to the order of
FINOVA CAPITAL CORPORATION ("Secured Party"), formerly known as Greyhound
Financial Corporation and successor-by-merger to Greyhound Financial Capital
Corporation, an Oregon corporation, at its offices at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other place or places as
Secured Party may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of
One Million Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,450,000), payable as
follows:
a. Thirty-Six (36) equal successive monthly installments of principal
of Twelve Thousand Eighty-Three and 33/100 Dollars ($12,083.33) each on the
first day of each month, beginning August 1, 1997, and continuing through
and including July 1, 2000; and
b. A final installment of One Million Fifteen Thousand and 12/100
Dollars ($1,015,000.12) on the 14th day of July, 2000,
together with accrued interest on the principal balance from time to time
remaining unpaid, payable monthly on the first day of each and every month,
beginning August 1, 1997. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
the event that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of November 22,
1993 by and among Debtor (other than Regam), AFP Technologies Corporation,
formerly known as Kenro Corporation, a New Jersey corporation and Secured Party
(the "Original Agreement"), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan
and Security Agreement dated as of December 7, 1993 (the "First Amendment") that
certain Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement dated as of July 14,
1995 (the "Second Amendment") and that certain Third Amendment to Loan and
Security Agreement of even date herewith (the "Third Amendment"; and
collectively with the Second Amendment, the First Amendment and the Original
Agreement, and as the same may hereafter be amended, restated, renewed, extended
or modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement") is terminated by Debtor, by
Secured Party or by any other person at any time, then the entire unpaid
principal balance of this Note,
together with all accrued and unpaid interest hereon, shall become immediately
due and payable in full on the effective date of such termination, without
presentment, notice or demand of any kind.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual
number of days elapsed, and shall be at the rate of three-quarters of one
percent (0.750%) in excess of the Base Rate (as hereinafter defined), computed
on the basis of a 360-day year; provided, however, upon the occurrence and

shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a default rate
(the "Default Rate") of two and three-quarters percent (2.750%) in excess of the

by the Bank. The applicable rate of interest assessed hereunder will be
increased or decreased from time to time hereafter in an amount equal to any
increase or decrease hereafter made by the Bank in the Base Rate. A change in
the Base Rate shall be effective on the first day following such change,
provided that a cumulative change of less than one fourth of one percent (0.25%)
shall not be considered.

will continue to use the loans and advances represented by this Note solely for
proper business purposes, and consistent with all applicable laws and statutes.
Debtor further warrants and represents to Secured Party and covenants with
Secured Party that Debtor is not in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation
G issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part
of the loan represented by this Note has been or will be used to purchase or
carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying any margin stock.
This Note is secured by the Collateral described in the Loan Agreement.
The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute a
default by Debtor under this Note (hereinafter an "Event of Default"): (a) if
Debtor fails to pay to Secured Party an installment of principal or interest
hereunder when due; (b) if Debtor fails to pay any of its Obligations (as
defined in the Loan Agreement) to Secured Party when due and payable or declared
due and payable; (c) if Debtor fails or neglects to perform, keep or observe any
term, provision, covenant, warranty or representation contained in this Note or
the Loan Agreement (other than as referred to in (a) or (b) of this paragraph),
which is required to be performed, kept or observed by Debtor or if a default
occurs under the Loan Agreement; (d) an Event of Default under and as defined in

occurrence of a default or an event of default under any agreement, instrument
or document heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter delivered to
Secured Party by Debtor or by any guarantor of part or all of Debtor's
obligations to Secured Party.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, in addition to
Secured Party's right to charge interest on the Obligations at the Default Rate:
(a) at the option of Secured Party, the entire unpaid amount of all of the
Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without demand, notice or
legal process of any kind; (b) Secured Party may, at its option, without demand,
notice or legal process of any kind, exercise any and all rights and remedies
granted to it by the Loan Agreement or by any other agreement now or hereafter
existing between Secured Party and Debtor or between Secured Party and any
guarantor of part or all of Debtor's liabilities to Secured Party; and (c)
Secured Party may at its option exercise from time to time any other rights and
remedies available to it under the Uniform Commercial Code or other law of the
State of Arizona.
The remedies of Secured Party as provided herein and in the Loan Agreement
shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly, successively,
or together, at the sole discretion of Secured Party. No act of omission or
commission of Secured Party, including specifically any failure to exercise any
right, remedy or recourse, shall be deemed to be a waiver or release of the
same, such waiver or release to be effected only through a written document
executed by Secured Party and then only to the extent specifically recited
therein. A waiver or release with reference to any one event shall not be
construed as continuing, as a bar to, or as a waiver or release of, any
subsequent right, remedy or recourse as to a subsequent event.
Debtor waives presentment, demand and protest, notice of protest, notice of
presentment and all other notices and demands in connection with the enforcement
of Secured Party's rights hereunder, except as specifically provided and called
for by this Note, and hereby consents to, and waives notice of, the release,
addition, or substitution, with or without consideration, of any collateral or
of any person liable for payment of this Note. Any failure of Secured Party to
exercise any right available hereunder or otherwise shall not be construed as a
waiver of the right to exercise the same or as a waiver of any other right at
any other time.
If legal action is necessary to enforce any provision of this Note, the
prevailing party to such action shall be entitled to recover payment of its
costs and attorneys' fees, paralegals' fees and expert witnesses' fees from the
losing party.
Secured Party may at any time transfer this Note and Secured Party's rights
in any or all collateral securing this Note, and Secured Party thereafter shall
be relieved from all liability with respect to such collateral arising after the
date of such transfer.

law, such provision shall be severable, and be ineffective to the extent of such

Note. The representations, warranties, covenants, liabilities and obligations of
