THIS LOAN AGREEMENT (the "AGREEMENT") is made effective the 29th day
of January, 1997, by and between DVI FINANCIAL SERVICES INC. ("BORROWER") and
PRIME BANK ("BANK").
BACKGROUND
A. Borrower has requested that Bank establish a line of credit
facility for Borrower, which Bank is willing to do on the terms set forth
herein.
B. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the
meanings set forth therefor in SECTION 12 of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions contained
herein, and of any extensions of credit now or hereafter made to or for the
benefit of Borrower by Bank, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound
hereby, agree as follows:
1. THE LINE; USE OF PROCEEDS.
1.1 LINE OF CREDIT. Bank will establish for Borrower for and
during the period from the date hereof and until January 29, 1998 (the
"CONTRACT PERIOD"), subject to the terms and conditions hereof, a revolving
line of credit (the "LINE") pursuant to which Bank will from time to time make
loans to Borrower in an aggregate amount not exceeding at any time Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000.00). Within the limitations set forth in this Agreement,
Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under the Line. The Line shall be
subject to all terms and conditions set forth in all of the Loan Documents
which terms and conditions are incorporated herein. Borrower's obligation to
repay each advance under the Line shall be evidenced by Borrower's promissory
note (each a "LINE NOTE") in the face amount of each such advance, which shall
be in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT "A", with the blanks appropriately
filled in. The Line shall be subject to review and renewal, at the sole
discretion of Bank after expiration of the Contract Period.
1.2 USE OF PROCEEDS; AMOUNT OF ADVANCE . Borrower shall use
proceeds under the Line solely to finance the actual cost to Borrower of the
specific items of equipment previously purchased by Borrower in respect of
which the advance under the Line is being made (the "EQUIPMENT"), which
Equipment shall have either been leased by Borrower to third parties or with
respect to which Borrower shall have provided financing to the end user of such
Equipment for the purchase thereof, all pursuant to documents acceptable to
Bank. The documents evidencing each such transaction between Borrower and such
third party or end user shall include either a master lease (the "MASTER
LEASE") or Loan and Security Agreement (the "LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT") and
equipment schedules thereto (the "EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE") identifying the
Equipment (the Master Lease or the Loan and Security Agreement, as applicable,
together with the Equipment Schedule, any promissory note and all other
documents in connection therewith may be referred to collectively as the
"FINANCING DOCUMENTS"). Individual advances under the Line will be in an
amount not to exceed the actual cost to Borrower of the specific Equipment
purchased by Borrower in respect of which such advance is being made.
1.3 METHOD OF ADVANCES.
(A) At least three (3) Business Days prior to the date
Borrower desires an advance under the Line, Borrower shall deliver to Bank
Borrower's complete credit package in connection with the Equipment and
Financing Documents in respect of which Borrower is requesting such advance.
Each credit package shall include, without limitation, the following:

particular request for an advance under the Line for any or no reason in its
sole direction. Bank shall notify Borrower of its determination with respect
to any request for an advance under the Line within two (2) Business Days after
receipt by Bank of the complete credit package delivered in connection with
such request.

under the Line, prior to or contemporaneously with any such funding, Borrower
shall deliver to Bank all of the following documents, all of which must be
satisfactory to Bank in its sole discretion:
(I) a certified copy of the original Master Lease
or Loan and Security Agreement, as

Schedule marked "Secured Party's Original"
and a certified copy of the Master Lease or
Loan and Security Agreement, as applicable;

Loan and Security Agreement, as applicable,

Financing Documents described on SCHEDULE 1.4 hereto. The representations and
warranties in SECTION 5 below are true and complete with respect to the
Financing Documents described on SCHEDULE 1.4 hereto.

such advance, (ii) date on which Borrower sells, transfers or otherwise
assigns the respective Financing Documents to another Person, or (iii) the date

payments required hereunder, Borrower will pay to Bank, in full, without any
further notice or demand, the outstanding principal balance of any advance

is sixty (60) days or more past due.
5
3.3 COMMITMENT FEE. Borrower will pay to Bank on the date hereof
a commitment fee in an amount equal to Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000.00).

compensation for the expenses incident to such past due payment.

thirty (30) days' written notice to Bank without any premium or penalty. In

together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other sums due
pursuant to the terms hereof shall be due and payable immediately.

the date due, from any deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank.
Otherwise, Borrower will be obligated to make such payments directly to Bank.
All payments are to be made in immediately available funds. If Bank accepts
payment in any other form, such payment shall not be deemed to have been made
until the funds comprising such payment have actually been received by or made
available to Bank.
3.7 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Any and all payments on account of
the Line will be applied to accrued and unpaid interest, outstanding principal
and other sums due hereunder or under the Loan Documents, in such order as
Bank, in its discretion, elects. If Borrower makes a payment or payments and
such payment or payments, or any part thereof, are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other person under any bankruptcy act,
state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such
payment or payments, the obligations or part thereof hereunder intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said
payment or payments had not been made.
4. SECURITY. As security for the full and timely payment and performance
of all Bank Indebtedness, Borrower shall grant to Bank a security interest in
all of the Equipment Schedules, the Master Lease or Loan and Security
Agreement, as applicable (as it relates to such Equipment Schedules), all
Equipment and other items being leased under such Equipment Schedules, all

Schedules, all chattel paper, accounts receivable, inventory and general
intangibles in connection therewith as it relates to such Equipment Schedules
and all products and proceeds thereof, all as more fully described in the

accrued and unpaid interest thereon, Bank will, upon request of Borrower and at
Borrower's sole cost and expense, release its security interest against the
specific Equipment Schedules and items of Equipment in respect of which such
advance was made, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. As further security for the Bank Indebtedness, Borrower shall

9
will qualify and remain qualified as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction

each Equipment Schedule to carry adequate insurance issued by an insurer
acceptable to Bank, in amounts acceptable to Bank (at least adequate to comply
with any co-insurance provisions) and against all such liability and hazards as
are usually carried by entities engaged in the same or a similar business as
such lessee or borrower similarly situated. Borrower shall be named as loss
payee (with a lender's loss payable endorsement) with respect to all such
personal property insurance, as its interests may appear (with such interests
assigned to Bank) with thirty (30) days' notice to be given Borrower by the
insurance carrier prior to cancellation or material modification of such
insurance coverage.
Borrower shall cause to be delivered to Bank evidence of such
insurance and at least thirty (30) business days prior to the expiration of any
such insurance, additional evidence of the renewal of such insurance and
payment of the premiums therefor. Borrower shall direct all insurers that in

premiums directly to Bank and not to Borrower and Bank jointly.
In the event of any loss, Borrower will give Bank immediate
notice thereof and Bank may make proof of loss whether the same is done by
Borrower. Bank is granted a power of attorney by Borrower with full power of
substitution to file any proof of loss in Borrower's or Bank's name, to endorse
Borrower's name on any check, draft or other instrument evidencing insurance
proceeds, and to take any action or sign any document to pursue any insurance
loss claim. Such power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable.
In the event of any loss, Bank, at its option, may: (a) retain
and apply all or any part of the insurance proceeds to reduce, in such order
and amounts as Bank may elect, the Bank Indebtedness; or (b) disburse all or
any part of such insurance proceeds to or for the benefit of Borrower for the
purpose of repairing or replacing Collateral after receiving proof satisfactory
to Bank of such repair or replacement, in either case without waiving or
impairing the Bank Indebtedness or any provision of this Agreement. Any
deficiency thereon shall be paid by Borrower to Bank upon demand. Borrower
shall not take out any insurance on the Collateral without having Bank named as
loss payee or additional insured thereon. Subject to SECTION 10 of the
Security Agreements, Borrower shall bear the full risk of loss from any loss of
any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral.
6.8 INSPECTIONS; EXAMINATIONS. Borrower hereby irrevocably
authorizes and directs all accountants and auditors employed by Borrower at any
time to exhibit and deliver to Bank copies of any and all of Borrower's
financial statements, trial balances or other accounting records of any sort in
the accountant's or auditor's possession and copies of all reports submitted to
Borrower by such accountants or auditors, including management letters,
"comment" letters and audit reports, and to disclose to Bank any information
they may have concerning Borrower's financial status and business operations.
Borrower further authorizes all federal, state and municipal authorities to
furnish to Bank copies of reports or examinations relating to Borrower, whether
made by Borrower or otherwise.
10
The officers of Bank (and any participant), or such Persons as
any of them may designate, may visit and inspect any of the properties of
Borrower, examine (either by Bank's or such participant's employees or by
independent accountants) any of the Collateral, including the books of account
of Borrower in connection therewith, and discuss the affairs, finances and
accounts of Borrower with its officers and with its independent accountants.
Borrower will fully cooperate with, field examinations of the, accounts
receivable and business affairs of Borrower. Borrower shall reimburse Bank for
its out-of-pocket costs in connection with such examinations. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, provided that no Event of
Default shall have occurred (a) Bank shall not make more than two (2)
inspections during any calendar year, and (b) Borrower shall not be obligated
to reimburse Bank for Bank's out-of-pocket costs in connection with such
inspections in an amount greater than Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00) during
any calendar year.

Indebtedness of Borrower is declared or becomes due and payable before its
expressed maturity by reason of default or otherwise or to the knowledge of
Borrower, the holder of any such material Indebtedness shall have the right (or
upon the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, shall have the
right) to declare such material Indebtedness to be so due and payable, Borrower
will immediately give Bank written notice of such declaration, acceleration or
right of declaration.
6.10 PENSION PLANS. Borrower will: (a) keep in full force and
effect any and all Plans which are presently in existence or may, from time to
time, come into existence under ERISA, unless such Plans can be terminated
without material liability to Borrower in connection with such termination (as
distinguished from any continuing funding obligation); (b) make contributions
to all of Borrower's Plans in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount to
comply with the requirements of ERISA; (c) comply with all material
requirements of ERISA which relate to such Plans so as to preclude the
occurrence of any Reportable Event, Prohibited Transaction or material
"accumulated funding deficiency" as such term is defined in ERISA; and (d)
notify Bank immediately upon receipt by Borrower of any notice of the
institution of any proceeding or other action which may result in the
termination of any Plan and deliver to Bank, promptly after the filing or
receipt thereof, copies of all reports or notices which Borrower files or
receives under ERISA with or from the Internal Revenue Service, the PBGC, or
the U.S. Department of Labor.
6.11 NAME OR ADDRESS CHANGE. Borrower shall not change its name or
address except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Bank and delivery
to Bank of any items requested by Bank to maintain perfection and priority of
Bank's security interests and access to Borrower's books and records.

action or proceeding brought against Borrower wherein such action or proceeding
would, if determined adversely to Borrower result in material liability of
Borrower; (b) the occurrence of any Event of Default; (c) any fact, condition
or event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, could
become an Event of Default; (d) the failure of Borrower to observe any of its
undertakings under the Loan Documents; or (e) any material adverse change in
the assets, business, operations or financial condition of Borrower.
6.13 ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS AND FUTURE ACTIONS. Borrower will, at
its sole cost, take such actions and provide Bank from time to time with such
agreements, financing statements and additional instruments, documents or
information as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to perfect,
protect, maintain or enforce the security interests in the Collateral, to
permit Bank to protect or enforce its interest in the Collateral, or to carry
out the terms of the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby authorizes and appoints
Bank as its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to take such
actions as Bank may reasonably deem advisable to protect the Collateral and its
interests thereon and its rights hereunder, to execute on Borrower's behalf and
file at Borrower's expense financing statements, and amendments thereto, in
those public offices deemed necessary or appropriate by Bank to establish,
maintain and protect a
11
continuously perfected security interest in the Collateral, and to execute on
Borrower's behalf such other documents and notices as Bank may deem advisable
to protect the Collateral and its interests therein and its rights hereunder.
Such power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable.
6.14 MATERIAL ADVERSE CONTRACTS. Borrower will not become or be a
party to any contract or agreement which has a materially adverse impact on
their ability to perform under this Agreement or any other agreement with Bank
to which it is a party.
6.15 RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower will not carry or
purchase with the proceeds of the Line any "margin security" within the meaning

otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof or impair any such right, remedy,
power or privilege. No waiver of any Event of Default shall affect any later

Collateral granted

to Bank by Borrower hereunder shall not be rendered void by the fact that no
Bank Indebtedness exists as of a particular date, but shall continue in full
force and effect until all Bank Indebtedness has been paid in full, Bank has no
agreement or commitment outstanding pursuant to which Bank may extend credit to
or on behalf of Borrower and Bank has executed and delivered termination
statements and/or releases of Bank with respect to the Collateral.
4. OBLIGATIONS SECURED. The Collateral and the continuing
security interests granted therein shall secure the Bank Indebtedness. IT IS
THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF BORROWER THAT THE COLLATERAL SHALL SECURE ALL EXISTING
AND FUTURE BANK INDEBTEDNESS.
5. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following
shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder:
5.1 The failure by Borrower to observe or perform any of
its obligations hereunder and such failure continues unremedied for a period of
thirty (30) days after the earlier of (a) notice from Bank to Borrower of the
existence of such failure, or (b) the date on which any officer of Borrower
knows of the existence of such failure, provided that, in the event such
failure is incapable of remedy, Borrower shall not be entitled to any notice or
grace hereunder; and/or
5.2 The occurrence of an Event of Default or default
under the Loan Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents.
6. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF BANK.
6.1 REMEDIES. At the option of the Bank, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, or at any time thereafter:
(a) The entire unpaid principal of the Bank
Indebtedness, or any part thereof, all interest accrued thereon, all fees due
hereunder and all other obligations of Borrower to Bank hereunder or under any
other agreement, note or otherwise arising will become immediately due and
payable without any further demand or notice;
(b) Bank may enter the premises occupied by
Borrower and take possession of the Collateral and any records relating
thereto; and/or
(c) Bank may exercise each and every right and
remedy granted to it hereunder, under the other Loan Documents, under the Code
and under any other applicable law or at equity.
6.2 SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL. The sale,
lease or other disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, by Bank
after an Event of Default may be for cash, credit or any combination thereof,
and Bank may purchase all or any part of the Collateral at public or, if
permitted by law, private sale, and in lieu of actual payment of such purchase
price, may set-off the amount of such purchase price against the Bank
Indebtedness then owing. Any sales of the Collateral may be adjourned from
time to time with or without notice. The Bank may cause the Collateral to
remain on Borrower's premises or otherwise or to be removed and stored at
-2-
23
premises owned by other persons, at Borrower's expense, pending sale or other
disposition of the Collateral. Borrower, at Bank's request and subject to the
terms of the Master Lease or Loan and Security Agreement, shall assemble the
Collateral consisting of inventory and tangible assets and make such assets
available to Bank at a place to be designated by Bank. Bank shall have the
right to conduct such sales on Borrower's premises, at Borrower's expense, or
elsewhere, on such occasion or occasions as Bank may see fit. Any notice
required to be given by Bank of a sale, lease or other disposition or other
intended action by Bank with respect to any of the Collateral which is
deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid and duly addressed to
Borrower at the address specified in SECTION 12 below, at least five (5)
business days prior to such proposed action, shall constitute fair and
reasonable notice to Borrower of any such action. The net proceeds realized by
Bank upon any such sale or other disposition, after deduction for the expenses
of retaking, holding, storing, transporting, preparing for sale, selling or
otherwise disposing of the Collateral incurred by Bank in connection therewith
and all other costs and expenses related thereto including reasonable attorney
fees, shall be applied in such order as Bank, in its sole discretion, elects,
toward satisfaction of the Bank Indebtedness. Bank shall account to Borrower
for any surplus realized upon such sale or other disposition, and Borrower
shall remain liable for any deficiency. The commencement of any action, legal
or equitable, or the rendering of any judgment or decree for any deficiency
shall not affect Bank's security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees
that Bank has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral against any
other parties.
6.3 ACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO COLLATERAL. Borrower hereby
irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Bank (and any of Bank's designated
officers, employees or agents) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney-in-fact,
with full power of substitution, with power to sign Borrower's name and to take
any of the following actions, in Borrower's name or the name of Bank, as Bank
may determine, without notice to Borrower and at Borrower's expense, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default:
(a) Verify the validity and amount of or any
other matter relating to the Collateral by mail, telephone, telecopy or
otherwise;
(b) Notify all lessees or borrowers that the
Financing Documents have been assigned to Bank and that Bank has a security
interest therein;
(c) Direct all lessees or borrowers under the
Financing Documents to make payment of all sums due thereunder directly to Bank
and forward invoices directly to such lessees or borrowers;
(d) Enforce payment of and collect any sums due
under any Financing Documents by legal proceedings or otherwise, and for such
purpose Bank may:
(i) Demand payment of any such sums or
direct any lessee or borrower to make payment of such sums directly to Bank;
(ii) Receive and collect all monies due
or to become due to Borrower thereunder;
(iii) Exercise all of Borrower's rights
and remedies with respect
-3-
24
to the collection of such sums;
(iv) Settle, adjust, compromise, extend,
renew, discharge or release any lessee or borrower or any security for any
Financing Documents;
(v) Sell or assign the Collateral on
such terms, for such reasonable amount and at such times as Bank deems
advisable;
(vi) Prepare, file and sign Borrower's
name or names on any Proof of Claim or similar document in any proceeding filed
under federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar
law as to any account debtor;
(vii) Endorse the name of Borrower upon
any chattel papers, documents, instruments, invoices, freight bills, bills of
lading or similar documents or agreements relating to the Collateral or upon
any checks or other media of payment or evidences of a security interest that
may come into Bank's possession;
(viii) Sign the name of Borrower to
verifications sent by lessees to Borrower; or
(ix) Take all other actions necessary or
desirable to protect Borrower's or Bank's interest in the Collateral.
Borrower ratifies and approves all acts of said attorneys and agrees that said
attorneys shall not be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor for
any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law, except gross negligence and
willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable. Borrower agrees to assist the Bank in the collection and
enforcement of its accounts and not to hinder, delay or impede the Bank on its
collection or enforcement of said accounts.
6.4 SET-OFF. Without limiting the rights of Bank under
applicable law, Bank (and any affiliate of Bank or any participating lender)
has and may exercise a right of set-off, a lien against and a security interest
in all property of Borrower now or at any time in Bank's (or such other
parties') possession in any capacity whatsoever, including but not limited to
any balance of any deposit, trust or agency account, or any other bank account
with Bank (or such other party), as security for all obligations of Borrower to
Bank under the Loan Documents or otherwise. At any time and from time to time
following the occurrence of an Event of Default, or an event which with the
giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of
Default, Bank (or such other party) may without notice or demand, set off and
apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank (or
such other party) to or for the credit of Borrower against any or all of the
Bank Indebtedness and the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents.
If any bank account of Borrower with Bank (or such
other party) is attached or otherwise liened or levied upon by any third party,
Bank (or such other party) need not await the running of any applicable grace
period hereunder, but shall have and be deemed to have the immediate right of
set-off and may apply the funds or amount thus set-off against Borrower's
obligations to the Bank.

6.5 DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER. Neither the failure
nor any delay on the part of Bank to exercise any right, remedy, power or
privilege under the Loan Documents upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof or impair any such right,
remedy, power or privilege. No waiver of any Event of Default shall affect any
later Event of Default or shall impair any rights of Bank. No single, partial
or full exercise of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges by the Bank
shall preclude further or other exercise thereof. No course of dealing between
Bank and Borrower shall operate as or be deemed to constitute a waiver of
Bank's rights under the Loan Documents or affect the duties or obligations of
Borrower.
6.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; CONSENTS. The rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive, but
shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies,
powers and privileges in Bank's favor at law or in equity.

of Bank (including without limitation court costs, reasonable attorney's fees
and expenses of accountants and appraisers); and
7.3 Any and all stamp and other taxes payable in
connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and all
liabilities to which Bank may become subject as the result of delay in paying
or omission to pay such taxes resulting from Borrower's failure to pay Bank
such sums as required under this SECTION 7.3.
In the event Borrower shall fail to pay taxes, insurance, assessments,
costs or expenses which it is required to pay hereunder, or fails to keep the
Collateral free from security interests or lien (except as expressly permitted
herein), or fails to maintain or repair the Collateral as required hereby, or
otherwise breaches any obligations under the Loan Documents, Bank in its
discretion, may make expenditures for such purposes and the amount so expended
(including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses, filing fees and other
charges) shall be payable by Borrower on demand and shall constitute part of
the Bank Indebtedness.
