3. Lender's Commitments.

3.1. Revolving Commitment.

3.1.1. Advances. Subject to the limitations in Section
3.1.2 and elsewhere herein, Lender commits to make available
from the Effective Date to the Maturity Date, a revolving
credit facility available as Advances made from time to time
as provided herein. Subject to the limitations in Section
3.1.2 and elsewhere herein, payments and prepayments that
are applied to reduce the Revolving Loan may be reborrowed.
The amount of the Revolving Commitment initially will be
$30,000,000, but will reduce automatically to a lesser
Dollar amount on certain dates as listed in the table below:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Effective Date of Reduction Reduction New Revolving Commitment
---------------------------------------------------------------------

December 31, 1999 $2,000,000 $28,000,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------
December 31, 2000 $5,000,000 $23,000,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------
December 31, 2001 $5,000,000 $18,000,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------
December 31, 2002 $3,000,000 $15,000,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Borrower may also reduce the amount of the Revolving
Commitment in whole multiples of $1,000,000 at any time and
from time to time, but only if (i) Borrower gives Lender
written notice of Borrower's intention to make such
reduction at least one Business Day prior to the effective
date of the reduction, and (ii) Borrower makes on the
effective date of the reduction any payment on the Revolving
Loan required under Section 7.2 as a consequence of the
reduction and any amount that may be due to Lender under
Section 18.4. Any such reduction of the amount of the
Revolving Commitment, whether scheduled or voluntary, shall
be permanent.

3.1.2. Limitation on Advances. No Advance will be made
which would result in the Revolving Loan exceeding the
Maximum Available Amount and no Advance will be

made on or after the Maturity Date. Lender may, however, in
its absolute discretion make such Advances, but shall not be
deemed by doing so to have increased the Maximum Available
Amount and shall not be obligated to make any such Advances
thereafter. At any time that there is an Existing Default,
the Revolving Commitment may be canceled as provided in
Section 17.2. The "Maximum Available Amount" on any date
shall be a Dollar amount equal to (i) the amount of the
Revolving Commitment on such date, minus (ii) the Letter of
Credit Exposure (except to the extent that such Advance will
be used immediately to reimburse Lender for unreimbursed
draws on a Letter of Credit). No Advance will be made which
would result in the Revolving Loan exceeding $25,000,000
unless and until Lender has, or contemporaneously with the
Advance will have, a first priority Security Interest in the
vessel Oceanic Odyssey and all of her machinery and
equipment and a valid and effective assignment of all income
and proceeds thereof, subject to no other Security Interests
except those that will be fully discharged by appropriate
contemporaneous application of the proceeds of such Advance
in a manner satisfactory to Lender. No Advance will be made
which would cause the ratio of the Revolving Loan to the
from time to time most recently appraised value of the
Vessels in which Lender has a first priority Security
Interest to exceed 2/3.

3.1.3. Note. The obligation of Borrower to repay
Lender's Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory
note payable to the order of Lender in a maximum principal
amount equal to the amount of the Revolving Commitment and
otherwise satisfactory to Lender.

3.2. Letter of Credit Commitment. Lender commits to issue
standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit
for the account of Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower
from time to time from the Effective Date to the Maturity
Date, but only in connection with transactions satisfactory
to Lender and only if the Letter of Credit Exposure for all
Letters of Credit will not as a result of such issuance
exceed $1,000,000. The expiration date of any Letter of
Credit will be a Business Day that is not more than one year
after its issuance date and is not later than the Maturity
Date; provided, however, that the expiration date for a
Letter of Credit may be later than the Maturity Date if
Borrower provides cash collateral satisfactory to Lender as
security for Borrower's obligation to reimburse Lender for
all draws thereunder. Borrower unconditionally and
irrevocably guaranties the reimbursement to Lender of, and
will cause to be reimbursed to Lender, all amounts drawn on
any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any
Subsidiary of Borrower.

4. Interest; Yield Protection.

4.1. Multiple Tranches Permitted. The Revolving Loan may have
multiple Tranches bearing differing interest rates as provided
herein, but no LIBOR Tranche may be less than $150,000.

4.2. Alternative Rates and Interest Periods. Each Tranche shall
bear interest at either the Alternate Base Rate or the LIBOR Based
Rate as designated by Borrower as provided herein. If Borrower
designates a Tranche to be a LIBOR Tranche, Borrower shall also
select an Interest Period for it. The Interest Period shall be
either one, two, three, or six months. If a Tranche is a LIBOR
Tranche, it shall bear interest at the LIBOR Based Rate throughout
the applicable Interest Period designated by Borrower as provided
herein. The "Alternate Base Rate" for any Tranche shall be the
Prime Rate (which will fluctuate as provided in Section 4.6). The
"LIBOR Based

Rate" for any Tranche shall be the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the
applicable LIBOR Increment determined as provided in Section 4.3.

4.3. LIBOR Increments. The applicable LIBOR Increment shall be
determined initially as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of
Borrower ended before the Effective Date, and thereafter as of the
last day of each fiscal quarter of Borrower, in accordance with
the following table and based upon the ratio of Borrower's Funded
Debt to EBITDA as reflected in Borrower's Financial Statements for
the twelve months then ended:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the ratio of Borrower's Funded Debt to EBITDA is: The LIBOR Increment shall be:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equal to or greater than 2.00 but less than 3.00 2.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equal to or greater than 1.00 but less than 2.00 1.75%
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Less than 1.00 1.50%
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any change in the LIBOR Increment shall become applicable on the
first day following the day when Borrower delivers to Lender its
Financial Statements for its fiscal quarter just ended as required
in Section 14.12.2. If Borrower does not deliver any such
quarterly Financial Statements to Lender within the period
required by Section 14.12.2, the highest possible LIBOR Increment
shall become applicable as of the last day of such period and
shall remain applicable until Borrower delivers such Financial
Statements to Lender.

4.4. Conversion of Loan. Borrower may (i) at any time convert an
Alternate Base Rate Tranche to a LIBOR Tranche, or (ii) at the end
of any Interest Period of a LIBOR Tranche, continue such LIBOR
Tranche as a LIBOR Tranche for an additional Interest Period or
convert the Tranche to an Alternate Base Rate Tranche. To cause
any conversion or continuation, Borrower shall give Lender, prior
to 11:00 a.m., St. Louis time, on the date when the conversion or
continuation is to be effective, or in the case of conversion to
or continuation of a LIBOR Tranche, two (2) Business Days prior to
the date the conversion or continuation is to be effective (in
either case, the "Conversion Date"), a written request (which may
be mailed, personally delivered or telecopied as provided in
Section 17.5) (a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation") (i)
specifying whether a conversion or continuation is requested, (ii)
in the case of a conversion, specifying whether the Tranche is to
be a LIBOR Tranche or Alternate Base Rate Tranche upon the
conversion, and (iv) in the case of conversion to or continuation
of a LIBOR Tranche, specifying the Interest Period therefor. If a
Notice of Conversion/Continuation is not made by 11:00 a.m. St.
Louis time on the second Business Day preceding the last day of
the Interest Period if the Tranche is a LIBOR Tranche, then
Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation to Lender requesting to convert the
Tranche to an Alternate Base Rate Tranche. If the Loan is a LIBOR
Tranche, any conversion or continuation shall become effective
only on the day following the last day of the current Interest
Period.

4.5. Time of Accrual. Interest shall accrue on all principal
amounts outstanding from the date when first outstanding to the
date when no longer outstanding. Amounts shall be deemed
outstanding until payments are applied thereto as provided herein.

4.6. Computation. Interest shall be computed for the actual days
elapsed over a year deemed to consist of 360 days. Interest rates
that are based on the Prime Rate shall change simultaneously with
any change in the Prime Rate and such rates shall be effective for
the entire day on which such Prime Rate change becomes effective.

4.7. Rate After Maturity. Borrower shall pay interest on the
Revolving Loan after its Maturity, and (at the option of Lender)
on the Revolving Loan and on the other Loan Obligations after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, at a rate per annum of 2% plus
the Prime Rate.

5. Fees.

5.1. Origination Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender an
"Origination Fee" on the Effective Date of $47,500.

5.2. Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a "Commitment
Fee" calculated by applying the daily equivalent of the Commitment
Fee Rate to the Unused Revolving Commitment on each day during the
period from the Effective Date to the Maturity Date. The "Unused
Revolving Commitment" on any day shall be the amount of the
Revolving Commitment minus the sum of the Revolving Loan and the
Letter of Credit Exposure. The Commitment Fee shall be payable
quarterly in arrears, commencing on the first day of the first
calendar quarterly beginning after the Effective Date and
continuing on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter
and on the Maturity Date. The applicable "Commitment Fee Rate"
shall be determined initially as of the last day of the fiscal
quarter of Borrower ended before the Effective Date, and
thereafter as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of Borrower,
in accordance with the following table and based upon the ratio of
Borrower's Funded Debt to EBITDA as reflected in Borrower's
Financial Statements for the twelve months then ended:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the ratio of Borrower's Funded Debt to EBITDA is: The Commitment Fee Rate shall be:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equal to or greater than 2.00 but less than 3.00 0.15%
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equal to or greater than 1.00 but less than 2.00 0.125%
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Less than 1.00 0.10%
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any change in the Commitment Fee Rate shall become applicable on
the first day following the day when Borrower delivers to Lender
its Financial Statements for its fiscal quarter just ended as
required in Section 14.12.2. If Borrower does not deliver any
such quarterly Financial Statements to Lender within the period
required by Section 14.12.2, the highest possible Commitment Fee
Rate shall become applicable as of the last day of such period and
shall remain applicable until Borrower delivers such Financial
Statements to Lender.

5.3. Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower shall pay to Lender a one-
time "Letter of Credit Fee" for each Letter of Credit issued by
Lender. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be an amount equal to 1.0%
per annum of the original face amount of each Letter of Credit and
is payable quarterly in arrears. Borrower shall also pay Lender's
other customary fees for amendment and renewal of a Letter of
Credit, for negotiation of drafts drawn under Letters of Credit,
and similar fees, all in accordance with Lender's normal practice
at the time.

6. Scheduled Payments.

6.1. Maturity Date. Borrower shall repay the Revolving Loan and
all unpaid accrued interest thereon on November 1, 2003.

6.2. Interest Payments Before Maturity Date. While a Tranche is
an Alternate Base Rate Tranche, Borrower shall pay interest
accrued thereon monthly in arrears, beginning on the first

Business Day of the first calendar month following the Effective
Date, and continuing on the first day of each calendar month
thereafter until the Maturity Date. While a Tranche is a LIBOR
Tranche, Borrower shall, until the Maturity Date, pay interest
accrued thereon on the last day of the Interest Period therefor,
provided however, that if a LIBOR Tranche has a 180 day Interest
Period, Borrower shall pay accrued interest on such LIBOR Tranche
on the last day of each fiscal quarter in addition to the last day
of the Interest Period..

7. Prepayments.

7.1. Voluntary Prepayments. Subject to the requirements of
Section 7.2, Borrower shall not be entitled to make prepayments on
a Tranche if it is a LIBOR Tranche. If a Tranche is an Alternate
Base Rate Tranche, Borrower may wholly prepay it at any time and
may make partial prepayments thereon from time to time, without
penalty or premium, but only if (i) Borrower gives Lender written
notice (which may be mailed, personally delivered or telecopied as
provided in Section 22.1) of Borrower's intention to make such
prepayment at least one Business Day prior to tendering the
prepayment, (ii) the total amount of the prepayment is a whole
multiple of $150,000, and (iii) Borrower pays any accrued interest
on the amount prepaid at the time of such prepayment.

7.2. Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time the Revolving Loan
exceeds the Maximum Available Amount, whether as a result of
optional Advances by Lender as contemplated in Section 3.1.2, a
scheduled or voluntary reduction in the amount of the Revolving
Commitment or otherwise, Borrower shall on demand by Lender make a
prepayment in the amount of the excess and pay any amount that may
be due to Lender under Section 18.4. Each such prepayment will be
applied by Lender first to reduce pro rata all the Tranches of the
Revolving Loan that are Alternate Base Rate Tranches, and then to
reduce (in the order of the maturities of their respective
Interest Periods) the Tranches of the Revolving Loan that are
LIBOR Tranches.

8. Manner of Payments and Timing of Application of Payments.

8.1. Payment Requirement. Unless expressly provided to the
contrary elsewhere herein, Borrower shall make each payment on the
Loan Obligations to Lender as required under the Loan Documents at
the Lending Office. All such payments shall be made in Dollars on
the date when due, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim.

8.2. Application of Payments and Proceeds. All payments received
by Lender in immediately available funds at or before 12:00 noon,
St. Louis time, on a Business Day will be applied to the relevant
Loan Obligation on the same day. Such payments received on a day
that is not a Business Day or after 12:00 noon on a Business Day
will be applied to the relevant Loan Obligation on the next
Business Day. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein,
Lender may apply, and reverse and reapply, payments and proceeds
of the Collateral to the Loan Obligations in such order and manner
as Lender determines in its absolute discretion. Borrower hereby
irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of payments
and proceeds of the Collateral.

8.3. Returned Instruments. If a payment is made by check, draft
or other instrument and the check, draft or other instrument is
returned unpaid, the application of the payment to the Loan
Obligations will be reversed and will be treated as never having
been made.

8.4. Compelled Return of Payments or Proceeds. If Lender is for
any reason compelled to surrender any payment or any proceeds of
the Collateral because such payment or the application of such
proceeds is for any reason invalidated, declared fraudulent, set
aside, or determined to be void or voidable as a preference, an
impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, then this
Agreement and the Loan Obligations to which such payment or
proceeds was applied or intended to be applied shall be revived as
if such application was never made; and Borrower shall be liable
to pay to Lender, and shall indemnify Lender for and hold Lender
harmless from any loss with respect to, the amount of such payment
or proceeds surrendered. This Section shall be effective
notwithstanding any contrary action Lender may take in reliance
upon its receipt of any such payment or proceeds. Any such
contrary action so taken by Lender shall be without prejudice to
Lender's rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have
been conditioned upon the application of such payment or proceeds
having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this
Section shall survive termination of the Commitment and the
payment and satisfaction of all of the Loan Obligations.

8.5. Due Dates Not on Business Days. If any payment required
hereunder becomes due on a date that is not a Business Day, then
such due date shall be deemed automatically extended to the next
Business Day; provided, however, that if the next Business Day
would be in the next calendar month, such payment shall instead be
due on the immediately preceding Business Day.

8.6. Advances on Borrower's Request. Borrower may request an
Advance by submitting a request therefor to Lender as provided
herein. Every request for an Advance shall specify a date when
the Advance is requested to be made and shall be irrevocable. A
request for an Advance received by Lender on a day that is not a
Business Day or that is received by Lender after 11:00 a.m. (St.
Louis time) on a Business Day shall be treated as having been
received by Lender at 11:00 a.m. (St. Louis time) on the next
Business Day. Provided that all conditions precedent herein to a
requested Advance have been satisfied, Lender will make the amount
of such requested Advance available to Borrower on the applicable
Advance Date in immediately available funds in Dollars at the
Lending Office. Such funds will be deposited in a demand deposit
account of Borrower's at the Lending Office.

8.7. Lender's Right to Make Other Advances.

8.7.1. Payment of Loan Obligations. Lender shall have
the right to make Advances at any time and from time to time
to cause timely payment of any of the Loan Obligations.
Lender will give notice to Borrower after any such Advance
is made. Any such Advance will be an Alternate Base Rate
Tranche.

8.7.2. Payments to Other Creditors. If Lender is
obligated to reimburse or pay to any creditor of Borrower
any amount in order to (i) obtain a release of such
creditor's Security Interest in any of the Collateral, or
(ii) otherwise satisfy Borrower's obligations to such
creditor to the extent not irrevocably satisfied by the
initial Advance, then Lender may make Advances for that
purpose. Any such Advance will be an Alternate Base Rate
Tranche.

8.8. Letters of Credit. Borrower may request the issuance of a
Letter of Credit by submitting an issuance request to Lender and
executing the reimbursement agreement required under Section 11.1
no less than five Business Days prior to the requested issue date
for such Letter of Credit.

8.9. Amount, Number, and Purpose Restrictions on Advances. No
Advance will be made unless it is a whole multiple of $150,000 and
not less than $150,000. On any one day, no more than one Advance
will be made. Advances will only be made for the purposes
permitted in Section 14.1.

8.10. Each Request for a Advance a Certification. Each submittal
by Borrower of a request for a Advance shall constitute a
certification by Borrower that (i) there is no Existing Default,
(ii) all representations and warranties of Borrower in this
Agreement are then true, with such exceptions as have been
disclosed to Lender in writing by Borrower, and will be true on
the Advance Date, as if then made, with such exceptions as have
been disclosed to Lender in writing by Borrower, except that with
respect to the representations and warranties made regarding
Financial Statements or financial data, such representations and
warranties shall be deemed made with respect to the most recent
Financial Statements and other financial data delivered by
Borrower to Lender, and (iii) all conditions herein and in the
other Loan Documents to the making of the requested Advance have
been satisfied.

8.11. Requirements for Every Request for an Advance. A request to
Lender for an Advance may be oral (in person or by telephone) or
in writing (mailed, personally delivered or telecopied as provided
in Section 22.1), shall be from a Borrowing Officer, and shall
specify the amount of the Advance to be made, the Advance Date,
which portion of the Advance is to be an Alternate Base Rate
Tranche and, if any, each portion of the Advance that is to be a
separate LIBOR Tranche and the Interest Period therefor. If a
request for an Advance does not fully meet the foregoing
requirements, Lender may reject it and not treat it as a request
for a Advance.

8.12. Requirements for Every Request for Issuance of a Letter of
Credit. Only a written request (which may be mailed, personally
delivered or telecopied as provided in Section 22.1) from a
Borrowing Officer to Lender, or an electronic initiation over an
online service provided by Lender, that specifies the amount,
requested issue date (which shall be a Business Day) and
beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit and other
information necessary for its issuance shall be treated as an
issuance request for purposes hereof.

8.13. Exoneration of Lender. Lender shall not incur any liability
to Borrower for treating a request that meets the express
requirements of Section 8.11 or Section 8.12 as a request for an
Advance or a request for issuance of a Letter of Credit Request,
as applicable, if Lender believes in good faith that the Person
making the request is a Borrowing Officer. Lender shall not incur
any liability to Borrower for failing to treat any such request as
a request for and Advance or a request for issuance of a Letter of
Credit, as applicable, if Lender believes in good faith that the
Person making the request is not a Borrowing Officer.

9. Security and Guaranties. As security for payment and performance
of the Loan Obligations (including all Interest Hedge Obligations, if
any ever exist), Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender, or cause
to be executed and delivered to Lender by the appropriate Person, the
following documents, each satisfactory to Lender:

9.1. Ship Mortgages. Ship mortgages, or amendments of existing
ship mortgages, satisfactory to Lender, each in the full amount of
the initial Revolving Commitment and (i) granting to Lender a
Security Interest in each of the vessels Nantucket Clipper,
Yorktown Clipper, and Clipper Adventurer, and (ii) assigning to
Lender all incometherefrom and proceeds thereof, which Security
Interests shall be subject only to Permitted Security Interests
that affect the foregoing.

9.2. Security Agreements. Security agreements, or amendments of
existing security agreements, satisfactory to Lender and granting
to Lender a Security Interest under the UCC in all stock held by
Borrower of the Subsidiaries of Borrower and all of the Goods,
Equipment, Accounts, Inventory, Instruments, Documents, Chattel
Paper, General Intangibles and other personal property and
Fixtures of Borrower and all of its Subsidiaries, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, and all proceeds thereof, subject
only to Permitted Security Interests that affect the foregoing.

9.3. Collateral Assignments. Collateral assignments, or
amendments of existing collateral assignments, satisfactory to
Lender and assigning to Lender (i) all of Borrower's rights under
its lease of 7711 Bonhomme, Clayton, Missouri, and (ii) the

"Clipper Adventurer", each subject to no other Security Interests
except Permitted Security Interests that affect the foregoing.

9.4. Guaranties. Guaranties, or ratifications of existing
guaranties, satisfactory to Lender, by all of the domestic
Subsidiaries of Borrower under which they guaranty the timely and
full payment and performance of all of the Loan Obligations

As further security for payment and performance of the Loan Obligations,
Borrower hereby assigns to Lender and grants to Lender a Security
Interest in all of the rights of Borrower under the Acquisition
Agreement; provided, however, that if there is no Existing Default,
Borrower shall have the right to enforce such rights and collect any
proceeds therefrom. The foregoing assignment and grant of a Security
Interest shall automatically become void when all of the Loan
Obligations have been fully and irrevocably paid and performed, all
outstanding Letters of Credit have expired, and the Commitments have
terminated.

If the proceeds of any Advance will be used to pay some or all of the
purchase price for the vessel Oceanic Odyssey by Borrower or any
Subsidiary of Borrower, or any other sum due in connection therewith,
Borrower or such Subsidiary shall (contemporaneously with the
acquisition thereof) execute and deliver to Lender a ship mortgage
satisfactory to Lender in the full amount of the initial Revolving
Commitment and (i) granting to Lender a Security Interest in the vessel
Oceanic Odyssey and (ii) assigning to Lender all income therefrom and
proceeds thereof, which Security Interests shall be subject only to
Permitted Security Interests that affect the foregoing.

Lender may, either before or after an Event of Default, exchange, waive
or release the Security Interests in any of the Collateral, or in
Lender's absolute discretion permit Borrower to substitute any real or
personal property for any of the Collateral, without affecting the Loan
Obligations or Lender's right to take any other action with respect to
any other Collateral.

10. Conditions.

Loan being greater than it was on the Effective Date unless:

Covered Person will not violate or constitute a default under the

of such Covered Person, or any Material Law, and will not, except
as expressly contemplated or permitted in this Agreement, result
in any Security Interest being imposed on any of such Covered
Person's property. The performance by any Covered Person of its
obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party will

under a standard New York or Union mortgagee clause. Lender is
authorized, but not obligated, as the attorney-in-fact for

consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and if

adjust and compromise proceeds payable under such policies of
insurance, (ii) to collect, receive and give receipts for such

at any time furnish to Lender updated evidence of insurance (in

of materialmen, mechanics, carriers, warehousemen, landlords and
other like Persons for labor, materials, supplies, storage or

Security Interest or charge upon any of the Collateral or its
other property; provided, however, that a Covered Person may
diligently contest in good faith by appropriate proceedings the

maintained by Borrower or an ERISA

Affiliate of Borrower (if any) which is a defined benefit
pension plan as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA while
such defined benefit pension plan has an accumulated
funding deficiency, unless Lender has been notified of
such intent to voluntarily terminate such plan and Lender
has given its consent and agreed that such event shall
not constitute an Event of Default; or the plan

void or invalid.

Event of Default and at any time and from time to time
thereafter, Lender is hereby authorized, without notice

Obligations any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held,
or any other Indebtedness at any time owing by Lender to
or for the credit or the account of Borrower,
irrespective of whether or not Lender has made any demand
under the Loan Documents and although such Loan
Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of Lender under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of set-off)
which Lender may otherwise have.

17.2.4. Notice to Account Debtors. Upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default and at any time and from time to
time thereafter, Lender may, without prior notice to
Borrower, notify any or all Account Debtors that the

a Security Interest therein , and Lender may direct, or
Borrower, at Lender's request, shall direct, any or all
Account Debtors to make all payments upon the Accounts
directly to Lender .

17.2.5. Entry Upon Premises and Access to
Information. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
and acceleration of the Loan Obligations as provided
herein, and at any time and from time to time thereafter,
Lender may (i) enter any premises leased or owned by

located (or is believed to be located) without any
obligation to pay rent to Borrower, or any other place or
places where Personal Property Collateral is believed to
be located, (ii) render Collateral usable or saleable,

liquidate such Personal Property Collateral; (iv) take
possession of, and make copies and abstracts of,
Borrower's original books and records, obtain access to
Borrower's data processing equipment, computer hardware

all of the foregoing and the information contained
therein in any manner Lender deems appropriate in
connection with the exercise of Lender's rights; and (v)
notify postal authorities to change the address for
delivery of Borrower's mail to an address designated by
Lender and to receive, open and process all mail
addressed to Borrower.

17.2.6. Borrower's Obligations. Upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default and acceleration of the Loan
Obligations as provided herein, Borrower shall, if Lender
so requests, assemble all movable Personal Property
Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place or
places to be designated by Lender in its discretion.

17.2.7. Exercise of Rights as Secured Party. Upon an
Event of Default and acceleration of the Loan Obligations

17.2.7.6. Lender may sell or otherwise dispose of
any or all of the Collateral at public or private sale
in a commercially reasonable manner, for cash or
credit, and after giving any notice as may be required
by any applicable Law. Lender may postpone any such
sale from time to time by announcement at the time and
place of sale stated in the notice of sale or by
announcement at any adjourned sale without being
required to give a new notice of sale, all as Lender
deems advisable. Lender may become the purchaser at
any such sale if permissible under applicable Law, and
Lender may, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase
price, offset the amount thereof against Borrower's
Loan Obligations owing to Lender, and Borrower agrees
that Lender has no obligation to preserve rights to
Collateral against prior parties or to marshal any
Collateral for the benefit of any Person.

In connection with the advertising for sale,
selling, or otherwise realizing upon any of the
Collateral securing the obligations of Borrower to
Lender, Lender may use and is hereby granted a license
to use, without charge or liability to Lender
therefor, any of Borrower's labels, trade names,
trademarks, trade secrets, service marks, patents,
patent applications, licenses, certificates of
authority, advertising materials, or any of Borrower's
other properties or interests in properties of similar
nature, to the extent that such use thereof is not
prohibited by agreements under which Borrower has
rights therein, and all of Borrower's rights under
license, franchise and similar agreements shall inure
to Lender's benefit.

17.2.8. Miscellaneous. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default and at any time thereafter, Lender may
exercise any other rights and remedies available to
Lender under the Loan Documents or otherwise available to
Lender at law or in equity.

17.3. Application of Funds. Any funds received by Lender with
respect to the Loan Obligations after acceleration of the Loan
Obligations as provided herein, including proceeds of Collateral,
shall be applied as follows: (i) first, to reimburse Lender for
any amounts due to Lender under Section 21.7; (ii) second, to
reimburse to Lender all unreimbursed costs and expenses paid or
incurred by Lender that are payable or reimbursable by Borrower
hereunder; (iii) third, to reimburse to Lender all unreimbursed

expenses incurred by Lender as Lender that are not reimbursable as
provided in the preceding clause) that are payable or reimbursable
by Borrower hereunder; (iv) fourth, to payment of accrued and
unpaid fees due under the Loan Documents and all other amounts due
under the Loan Documents (other than the Revolving Loan and
interest accrued

thereon); (v) fifth, to payment of interest accrued on the
Revolving Loan and to all Interest Hedge Obligations (if any), pro
rata; (vi) sixth, to payment of the Revolving Loan and all
remaining Interest Hedge Obligations (if any), pro rata; and

amounts remaining after the application of funds and proceeds as
provided in this Section shall be paid to Borrower, or to such
other Persons as are legally entitled thereto.

17.4. Limitation of Liability; Waiver. Lender shall not be
liable to Borrower as a result of any commercially reasonable
possession, repossession, collection or sale by Lender of
Collateral; and Borrower hereby waives all rights of redemption
from any such sale and the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and
exemption laws. If Lender seeks to take possession of any of the
Collateral by replevin or other court process after an Event of
Default, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives (i) the posting of any
bonds, surety and security relating thereto required by any
statute, court rule or otherwise as an incident to such
possession, (ii) any demand for possession of the Collateral prior
to the commencement of any suit or action to recover possession
thereof, (iii) any requirement that Lender retain possession and

and (iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, all rights to
notice and hearing prior to the exercise by Lender of its right to
repossess the Collateral without judicial process or to replevy,
attach or levy upon the Collateral without notice or hearing.
Lender shall not have any obligation to preserve rights to the
Collateral or to xxxxxxxx any Collateral for the benefit of any
Person.

17.5. Notice. Any notice of intended action required to be
given by either Lender (including notice of a public or private
sale of Collateral), if given as provided in Section 22.1 at least
10 days prior to such proposed action, shall be effective and
constitute reasonable and fair notice to Borrower.

18. Changes in Circumstances.

18.1. Compensation for Increased Costs and Reduced Returns;
Capital Adequacy.

18.1.1. Increased Costs or Reduced Returns to Lender.
If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable
Law or any change in any applicable Law or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by Lender (or the
Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) of any such Governmental
Authority:

18.1.1.1. subjects Lender (or the Lending Office)
to any Tax with respect to any LIBOR Tranche or its
obligation to make any Advance that will be a LIBOR
Tranche, or change the basis of taxation of any
amounts payable to Lender (or the Lending Office)
under this Agreement in respect of any LIBOR Tranche
(other than Taxes imposed on the overall net income of
Lender by the jurisdiction in which Lender has its
principal office or the Lending Office);

18.1.1.2. imposes, modifies, or deems applicable
any reserve, special deposit, assessment, compulsory
loan or similar requirement (other than the Reserve
Requirement) relating to any extensions of credit or
other assets of, or any deposits with or other
liabilities or commitments of, Lender (or the Lending
Office), including the Commitments of Lender
hereunder; or

18.1.1.3. imposes on Lender (or the Lending
Office), or the London interbank market, any other
condition affecting this Agreement, the Commitments or
any of the Loan Obligations;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to Lender (or the Lending Office) of making,
converting into, continuing, or maintaining any
Tranches or to reduce any sum received or receivable
by Lender (or the Lending Office) under this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents with respect to a
Trance, then Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand
such amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for
such increased cost or reduction. If Lender requests
compensation by Borrower under this Section Borrower
may, by notice to Lender, suspend the obligation of
Lender to make Advances that will become, or continue,
Tranches of the type with respect to which such
compensation is requested, or to convert Tranches of
any other type into Tranches of such type, until the
event or condition giving rise to such request ceases
to be in effect (in which case the provisions of
Section 18.5 shall be applicable); provided, however,
that such suspension shall not affect the right of
Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

18.1.2. Capital Adequacy. If at any time after the date
hereof Lender determines that the adoption of any
applicable Law regarding capital adequacy or any change
therein or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental authority, charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or any request
or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such Governmental
Authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on the capital of Lender or any
corporation controlling Lender as a consequence of
Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that
which Lender or such corporation could have achieved but
for such adoption, change, request, or directive (taking
into consideration its policies with respect to capital
adequacy), then from time to time upon demand Borrower
shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate Lender for such reduction.

18.1.3. Notice to Borrower. Lender shall promptly
notify Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge,
occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle
Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 18.1 and
will designate a different Lending Office if such
designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount
of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of
Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it. If Lender
claims compensation under this Section, Lender will
furnish to Borrower a statement stating the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, which shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In
determining such amount, Lender may use any reasonable
averaging and attribution methods.

18.2. Limitations on LIBOR Tranches. If on or prior to the
first day of any Interest Period for any LIBOR Tranche:

18.2.1. Lender determines (which determination shall
be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting
the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest
Period; or

18.2.2. Lender determines (which determination shall
be conclusive) that the LIBO Rate will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding LIBOR
Tranches for such Interest Period;

then Lender will give Borrower prompt notice thereof, and
while such condition remains in effect, Lender will have
no obligation to make additional Advances that will be
LIBOR Tranches, to continue LIBOR Tranches, or to convert
Alternate Base Rate Tranches into LIBOR Tranches.

18.3. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for Lender or the
Lending Office to make Advances that will be LIBOR Tranches or
maintain LIBOR Tranches hereunder, then Lender shall promptly
notify Borrower thereof and Lender's obligation to do so or to
convert Alternate Base Rate Tranches into LIBOR Tranches shall be
suspended until such time as Lender may again do so, and Lender's
outstanding LIBOR Tranches shall be converted into Alternate Base
Rate Tranches in accordance with Section 18.5.

18.4. Compensation. Upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall
pay to Lender such amount or amounts as will be sufficient (in the
reasonable determination of Lender) to compensate it for any loss,
cost, or expense (including loss of anticipated profits) incurred
by it as a result of:

18.4.1. any payment, prepayment, or conversion of a
LIBOR Tranche for any reason (including, without
limitation, the acceleration of the Revolving Loan
pursuant to the terms hereof) on a date other than the
last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Tranche;
or

18.4.2. any failure by Borrower for any reason (other
than pursuant to Section 18.2 or 18.3) to take an Advance
that is requested to be a LIBOR Tranche or to convert,
continue, or prepay a LIBOR Tranche on the date therefor
specified in the relevant request for an Advance or
notice of prepayment, continuation, or conversion under
this Agreement.

If Lender claims compensation under this Section 18.4,
Lender shall furnish a certificate to Borrower that
states the amount to be paid to it hereunder and includes
a description in reasonable detail of the method used by
Lender in calculating such amount. Borrower shall have
the burden of proving that the amount of any such
compensation calculated by Lender is not correct. Any
compensation payable by Borrower to Lender under this
Section shall be payable without regard to whether Lender
has funded any Advance or LIBOR Tranche through the
purchase of deposits in an amount or of a maturity
corresponding to the deposits used as a reference in
determining the LIBO Rate as provided herein.

18.5. Treatment of Affected Tranches. If the obligation of
Lender to make an Advance that will be a LIBOR Tranche or to
continue any LIBOR Tranche or to convert any Alternate Base Rate
Tranche into a LIBOR Tranche shall be suspended pursuant to
Section 18.2 or 18.3, each such Tranche shall be automatically and
immediately converted into an Alternate Base Rate Tranche on the
last day of its Interest Period (or, in the case of a conversion
required by Section 18.3, on such earlier date as Lender may
specify to Borrower). Unless and until Lender gives notice as
provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 18.2 or
18.3 that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

18.5.1. to the extent that such Tranches have been so
converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that
would otherwise be applied to such Tranches shall
continue to be made and applied as provided for herein;
and

18.5.2. all Advances by Lender that would otherwise
become LIBOR Tranches and all LIBOR Tranches that would
otherwise be continued by Lender as LIBOR Tranches shall
become or be continued instead as Alternate Base Rate
Tranches, and all Alternate Base Rate Tranches that would
otherwise be converted into LIBOR Tranches shall be
converted instead into (or shall remain as) Alternate
Base Rate Tranches.

Lender shall give prompt notice to Borrower if and when
the circumstances specified in Section 18.2 or 18.3 that
gave rise to the conversion of such Tranches pursuant to
this Section 18.5 no longer exist.

19. Taxes.

19.1. Gross-Up. All payments by Borrower to or for the account
of Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made
free and clear of and without deduction for all present or future
Taxes, excluding franchise Taxes and Taxes imposed on Lender's net
income, by the jurisdiction under the Laws of which Lender is
organized or the Lending Office is located or any political
subdivision thereof. If Borrower is required by Law to deduct any
Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section) Lender receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)
Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the
full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable Law, and (iv) Borrower
shall furnish to Lender, at its address referred to herein, the
original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present
or future Impositions. "Impositions" include stamp or documentary
taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar
levies which arise from the Loan Obligations, any payment made
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the
execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, the Loan
Obligations, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower
agrees to indemnify Lender for the full amount of all Impositions
and Taxes, excluding franchise Taxes and Taxes imposed on Lender's
net income, (including any such Taxes or Impositions imposed or
asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this
Section) paid by Lender and any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.
Within thirty days after the date of any payment of Taxes,
Borrower shall furnish Lender the original or a certified copy of
a receipt evidencing such payment.

19.2. Lender's Undertaking. If Borrower is required to pay
additional amounts to or for the account of Lender pursuant to
Section 19.1, then Lender will use reasonable efforts to change
the jurisdiction of the Lending Office so as to eliminate or
reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if
such change, in the judgment of Lender, is not otherwise
disadvantageous to Lender.

20. Usury Limitations. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary
in Section 4 or elsewhere in any of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall
not be obligated to pay interest at a rate which exceeds the maximum
rate permitted by Law. If, but for this Section 20, Borrower would be
deemed obligated to pay interest at a rate which exceeds the maximum
rate permitted by Law, or if any of the Loan Obligations is

paid or becomes payable before its originally scheduled Maturity and as
a result Borrower has paid or would be obligated to pay interest at such
an excessive rate, then (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay
interest to the extent it exceeds the interest that would be payable at
the maximum rate permitted by Law; (ii) if the outstanding Loan
Obligations have not been accelerated as provided in Section 17.2.2, any
such excess interest that has been paid by Borrower shall be refunded;
(iii) if the outstanding Loan Obligations have been accelerated as
provided in Section 17.2.2, any such excess that has been paid by
Borrower shall be applied to the Loan Obligations as provided in Section
17.3; and (iv) the effective rate of interest shall be deemed
automatically reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Law.

21. General.

21.1. Lender's Right to Cure. Lender may from time to time, in
its absolute discretion, for Borrower's account and at Borrower's
expense, pay any amount or do any act required of Borrower under
the Loan Documents or requested by Lender to preserve, protect,
maintain or enforce the Loan Obligations, the Collateral or
Lender's Security Interests therein, and which Borrower fails to
pay or do, including payment of any judgment against Borrower,
insurance premium, Taxes or assessments, warehouse charge,
finishing or processing charge, landlord's claim, and any other
Security Interest upon or with respect to the Collateral. All
payments that Lender makes pursuant to this Section and all out-
of-pocket costs and expenses that Lender pays or incurs in
connection with any action taken by them hereunder shall be a part
of the Loan Obligations, the repayment of which shall be secured
by the Collateral. Any payment made or other action taken by
Lender pursuant to this Section shall be without prejudice to any
right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to pursue
Lender's other rights and remedies with respect thereto.

21.2. Rights Not Exclusive. Every right granted to Lender
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or allowed to them at
law or in equity shall be deemed cumulative and may be exercised
from time to time.

21.3. Survival of Agreements. All covenants and agreements
made herein and in the other Loan Documents shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Note and other Loan
Documents and the making of every Advance. All agreements,
obligations and liabilities of Borrower under the Loan Documents
concerning the payment of money to Lender, including Borrower's
obligations under Sections 21.6 and 21.7, but excluding the
obligation to repay the Revolving Loan and interest accrued
thereon, shall survive the repayment in full of the Revolving Loan
and interest accrued thereon, the return of the Note to Borrower,
and the termination or cancellation of the Commitments.

21.4. Sale of Participations. Lender may sell participations
to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement provided that the
terms of sale satisfy the following requirements:

21.4.1. Lender's obligations under this Agreement
shall remain unchanged.

21.4.2. Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations.

21.4.3. Lender shall remain the holder of the Note for
the purpose of this Agreement.

21.4.4. Borrower and Lender shall continue to deal
solely and directly with each other in connection with
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and
with

regard to Advances and payments to be made under this
Agreement. Participation agreements between Lender and
its participants may, however, provide that Lender will
obtain the approval of such participant prior to Lender
agreeing to any amendment or waiver of any provisions of
this Agreement which would (i) extend the maturity of the
Note, (ii) reduce the interest rate on the Revolving
Loan, (iii) increase any of the Commitments of Lender, or
(iv) release all or any substantial part of the
Collateral other than in accordance with the terms of the
Loan Documents.

The sale of any such participations which require
Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or
under the securities laws of any state shall not be
permitted.

21.5. Assignments to Affiliates. Lender may assign all or any
portion of its interest in the Revolving Loan to its Affiliates
without the acceptance or consent of Lender or Borrower, and may
assign all or any portion of its interest in the Revolving Loan to
the Federal Reserve Bank without acceptance or approval of
Borrower.

21.6. Payment of Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse
to Lender all of Lender's out-of-pocket costs incurred in
connection with Lender's due diligence review before execution of
the Loan Documents; the negotiation and preparation of the
commitment letters and the Loan Documents; the perfection of any
Lender's Security Interest in any Collateral; the interpretation
of any of the Loan Documents; the enforcement of Lender's rights
and remedies under the Loan Documents after a Default or Event of
Default; any amendment of or supplementation to any of the Loan
Documents; and any waiver, consent or forbearance with respect to
any Default or Event of Default. Borrower further agrees to pay
or reimburse to Lender all of Lender's out-of-pocket costs
incurred in connection with the enforcement of Lender's rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents after a Default or Event of
Default. Out-of-pocket costs may include but are not limited to
the following, to the extent they are actually paid or incurred:
title insurance fees and premiums; the cost of searches for
Security Interests existing against Borrower; recording and filing
fees; fees for all required appraisals; environmental consultant
fees; litigation costs; and all attorneys' and paralegals'

21.7. General Indemnity.

21.7.1. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Lender
and its directors, officers, employees, agents, and
representatives (the "Indemnified Parties") for, from and

for, any and all claims, damages, liabilities, losses,
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses and amounts paid in settlement) incurred,
paid or sustained by the Indemnified Parties in
connection with, arising out of, based upon or otherwise
involving or resulting from any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding
by, against or otherwise involving the Indemnified
Parties and in any way dealing with,

relating to or otherwise involving this Agreement, any of
the other Loan Documents, or any transaction contemplated
hereby or thereby, except to the extent that they arise
from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of any of the Indemnified Parties. Borrower
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties
for, from and against, and promptly reimburse the
Indemnified Parties for, any and all claims, damages,
liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' and consultant fees and expenses,
investigation and laboratory fees, removal, remedial,
response and corrective action costs, and amounts paid in
settlement) incurred, paid or sustained by the
Indemnified Parties as a result of the manufacture,
storage, transportation, release or disposal of any
Hazardous Material on, from, over or affecting any of the
Collateral or any of the assets, properties, or
operations of Borrower or any predecessor in interest,
directly or indirectly, except to the extent that they
arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of any of the Indemnified Parties.

21.7.2. The obligations of Borrower under this Section
21.7 shall survive the termination or cancellation of the

required from Borrower under this Section are
unenforceable because they violate any Law or public
policy, Borrower shall pay the maximum amount which it is
permitted to pay under applicable Law.

21.8. Loan Records. The date and amount of all Advances and
payments of amounts due from Borrower under the Loan Documents
will be recorded in the records that Lender normally maintains for
such types of transactions. The failure to record, or any error
in recording, any of the foregoing shall not, however, affect the
obligation of Borrower to repay the Revolving Loan and other
amounts payable under the Loan Documents. Borrower shall have the
burden of proving that Lender's records are not correct. Borrower
agrees that Lender's books and records showing the Loan
Obligations and the transactions pursuant to this Agreement shall
be admissible in any action or proceeding arising therefrom, and
shall constitute prima facie proof thereof, irrespective of
whether any Loan Obligation is also evidenced by a promissory note
or other instrument. Any statement that Lender provides to
Borrower of Advances, payments, and other transactions pursuant to
this Agreement shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on
Borrower and an account stated (except for reversals and
reapplications of payments as provided in Section 8.4 and
corrections of errors discovered by Lender), unless Borrower
notifies Lender in writing to the contrary within 30 days after
such statement is rendered. In the event a timely written notice
of objections is given by Borrower, only the items to which
exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed by
Borrower.

21.9. Other Security and Guaranties. Lender may, without
notice or demand and without affecting Borrower's obligations
hereunder, from time to time: (a) take from any Person and hold
collateral (other than the Collateral) for the payment of all or
any part of the Loan Obligations and exchange, enforce and release
such collateral or any part thereof; and (b) accept and hold any
endorsement or guaranty of payment of all or any part of the Loan
Obligations and release or substitute any such endorser or
guarantor, or any Person who has given any Security Interest in
any other collateral as security for the payment of all or any
part of the Loan Obligations, or any other Person in any way
obligated to pay all or any part of the Loan Obligations.

22. Miscellaneous.

22.1. Notices. All notices, consents, requests and demands to

shall be deemed to have been given or made when delivered in
person to those Persons listed on the signature pages hereof or
two days after being deposited in the United States mail, postage
prepaid, or, in the case of telegraphic notice, or the overnight
courier services, when delivered to the telegraph company or
overnight courier service, or in the case of telex or telecopy
notice, when sent, verification received, in each case addressed
as set forth on the signature pages hereof, or such other address
as either party may designate by notice to the other in accordance
with the terms of this paragraph. No notice given to or demand
made on Borrower by any Lender in any instance shall entitle
Borrower to notice or demand in any other instance.

22.2. Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Unless otherwise
provided herein, no amendment to or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, or of any of the other Loan Documents, nor consent
to any departure by Borrower herefrom or therefrom, shall be
effective unless it is in writing and signed by authorized
officers of Borrower and Lender. No notice to or demand on
Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No
failure by any Lender to exercise, and no delay by any Lender in
exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise by Lender of any right, remedy, power or privilege
hereunder preclude any other exercise thereof, or the exercise of
any other right, remedy, power or privilege. Each and every right
granted to Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document or
other document delivered hereunder or in connection with this
Agreement or allowed to them at law or in equity shall be deemed
cumulative and may be exercised from time to time.

22.3. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and all future
holders of the Note and their respective successors and assigns,
except that Borrower may not assign, delegate or transfer any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior
written consent of Lender. With respect to Borrower's successors
and assigns, such successors and assigns shall include any
receiver, trustee or debtor-in-possession of or for Borrower.

22.4. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition, unenforceability or lack of authorization
without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting
the validity, enforceability or legality of such provision in any
other jurisdiction unless the ineffectiveness of such provision
would result in such a material change as to cause completion of
the transactions contemplated hereby to be unreasonable.

22.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the
parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, and all
such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this
Agreement to produce or account for more than one counterpart
signed by the party to be charged.

22.6. Governing Law; No Third Party Rights. This Agreement,
the other Loan Documents and the Note and the rights and
obligations of the parties hereunder and thereunder shall be
governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of Missouri applicable to contracts
made and to be performed wholly within such state, without regard
to choice or conflict of laws provisions; except that the
provisions of the Loan Documents pertaining to the creation or
perfection of Security Interests or the enforcement of the rights
of

Lender in Collateral located in states other than Missouri, if
any, and other related matters subject to the law of such states,
shall be governed by the laws of such States. This Agreement is
solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have any right,
benefit, priority or interest under, or because of the existence
of, this Agreement.

22.7. Counterpart Facsimile Execution. For purposes of this
Agreement, a document (or signature page thereto) signed and
transmitted by facsimile machine or telecopier is to be treated as
an original document. The signature of any Person thereon, for
purposes hereof, is to be considered as an original signature, and
the document transmitted is to be considered to have the same
binding effect as an original signature on an original document.
At the request of any party hereto, any facsimile or telecopy
document is to be re-executed in original form by the Persons who
executed the facsimile or telecopy document. No party hereto may
raise the use of a facsimile machine or telecopier or the fact
that any signature was transmitted through the use of a facsimile
or telecopier machine as a defense to the enforcement of this
Agreement or any amendment or other document executed in
compliance with this Section.

22.8. No Other Agreements. There are no other agreements
between Lender and Borrower, oral or written, concerning the
subject matter of the Loan Documents, and all prior agreements
concerning the same subject matter, including the Commitment
Letter, are merged into the Loan Documents and thereby
extinguished.

22.9. Incorporation By Reference. All of the terms of the
other Loan Documents are incorporated in and made a part of this
Agreement by this reference.

22.10. Negotiated Transaction. Borrower and Lender represent
one to the other that in the negotiation and drafting of this
Agreement they have been represented by and have relied upon the
advice of counsel of their choice. Borrower and Lender affirm
that their counsel have both had substantial roles in the drafting
and negotiation of this Agreement and, therefore, this Agreement
shall be deemed drafted by both Borrower and Lender, and the rule
of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be
resolved against the drafter shall not be employed in the
interpretation of this Agreement.

22.11. Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between
or among the parties hereto including but not limited to those
arising out of or relating to this instrument or any other
document evidencing or securing the loan transaction herein

determined by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal
Arbitration Act (or if not applicable, the applicable state law),
as promulgated from time to time by the Rules Of Practice And
Procedure for The Arbitration Of Commercial Disputes of Judicial
Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc., predecessor in interest
to Endispute, Inc., doing business as "J.A.M.S./ENDISPUTE" and the
"special rules" set forth below. In the event of any
inconsistency, the special rules shall control. judgment upon any
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Any party to such document may bring an action, including a
summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of any
controversy or claim to which this agreement applies in any court
having jurisdiction over such action.

22.11.1. Special Rules. The arbitration shall be
conducted in the City or County of St. Louis, Missouri
and administered by J.A.M.S./ENDISPUTE who will appoint
an arbitrator; if J.A.M.S./ENDISPUTE is unable or legally
precluded from administering

the arbitration, then the American Arbitration
Association will serve. All arbitration hearings will be
commenced within ninety (90) calendar days of the demand
for arbitration; further, the arbitrator shall only, upon
a showing of cause, be permitted to extend the
commencement of such hearing for up to an additional
sixty (60) calendar days.

22.11.2. Reservation Of Rights. Nothing in this
agreement shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability

help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (b)
to foreclose against any real or personal property

Lender may exercise such self help rights, foreclose upon
such property, or obtain such provisional or ancillary
remedies before, during or after the pendency of any
arbitration proceeding brought pursuant to this note. At
Lender's option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or
mortgage may be accomplished by any of the following:
the exercise of a power of sale under the deed of trust
or mortgage, or by judicial sale under the deed of trust
or mortgage, or by judicial foreclosure. Neither the
exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or
maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional
or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the
right of any party, including the claimant in any such
action, to arbitrate the merits of the controversy or
claim occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision
in the Loan Documents regarding submission to
jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or
shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions
in any Loan Document for arbitration of any controversy
or claim.

act as a release or subordination of the Security Interests of Lender

hereby.

of any party hereto, any facsimile or telecopy document is to be re-
executed in original form by the Persons who executed the facsimile or
telecopy document. No party hereto may raise the use of a facsimile
machine or telecopier or the fact that any signature was transmitted
through the use of a facsimile or telecopier machine as a defense to the
enforcement of this Amendment.

9. GOVERNING LAW; NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. This Amendment and the
rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and
construed and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of Missouri applicable to contracts made and to be performed

part of this Amendment by this reference.

11. STATUTORY NOTICE. The following notice is given pursuant to
Section 432.045 of the Missouri Revised Statutes; nothing contained in
such notice will be deemed to limit or modify the terms of the Loan
Documents or this Amendment:

ORAL AGREEMENTS OR COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO
FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT INCLUDING PROMISES TO
EXTEND OR RENEW SUCH DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE. TO PROTECT YOU
(BORROWER(S)) AND US (CREDITOR) FROM MISUNDERSTANDING OR
DISAPPOINTMENT, ANY AGREEMENTS WE REACH COVERING SUCH MATTERS ARE
CONTAINED IN THIS WRITING, WHICH IS THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE
STATEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN US, EXCEPT AS WE MAY LATER
AGREE IN WRITING TO MODIFY IT.

12. STATUTORY NOTICE--INSURANCE. The following notice is given
pursuant to Section 427.120 of the Missouri Revised Statutes; is deemed
incorporated into the Loan Agreement, and nothing contained in such
notice shall be deemed to limit or modify the terms of the Loan
Documents.

UNLESS YOU PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF THE INSURANCE COVERAGE REQUIRED BY
YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US, WE MAY PURCHASE INSURANCE AT YOUR EXPENSE
TO PROTECT OUR INTERESTS IN YOUR COLLATERAL. THIS INSURANCE MAY,
BUT NEED NOT, PROTECT YOUR INTERESTS. THE COVERAGE THAT WE
PURCHASE MAY NOT PAY ANY CLAIM THAT YOU MAKE OR ANY CLAIM THAT IS
MADE AGAINST YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL. YOU MAY LATER
CANCEL ANY INSURANCE PURCHASED BY US, BUT ONLY AFTER PROVIDING
EVIDENCE THAT YOU HAVE OBTAINED INSURANCE AS REQUIRED BY OUR
AGREEMENT. IF WE PURCHASE INSURANCE FOR THE COLLATERAL, YOU WILL
BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COSTS OF THAT INSURANCE, INCLUDING THE
INSURANCE PREMIUM, INTEREST AND ANY OTHER CHARGES WE MAY IMPOSE IN
CONNECTION WITH THE PLACEMENT OF THE INSURANCE, UNTIL THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CANCELLATION OR EXPIRATION OF THE INSURANCE.
THE COSTS OF THE INSURANCE MAY BE ADDED TO YOUR TOTAL OUTSTANDING
BALANCE OR OBLIGATION. THE COSTS OF THE INSURANCE MAY BE MORE
THAN THE COST OF INSURANCE YOU MAY BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON YOUR OWN.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to be
executed by appropriate duly authorized officers as of the effective
date first above written.
