1. DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND OBLIGATIONS. Among other
indebtedness and obligations which may be owing by Borrower to Bank, Borrower is
indebted to Bank pursuant to a loan arrangement dated as of May 27, 2003,
evidenced by, among other documents, a certain Accounts Receivable Financing

Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have
the same meaning as in the Loan Agreement.
2. DESCRIPTION OF COLLATERAL. Repayment of the Obligations is secured by
the Collateral as described in the Loan Agreement and the Intellectual Property
Collateral as described in certain Intellectual Property Security Agreements
each dated as of May 27, 2003 (collectively, the "IP Security Agreement")
(together with any other collateral security granted to Bank, the "Security
Documents").
Hereinafter, the Security Documents, together with all other documents
evidencing or securing the Obligations shall be referred to as the "Existing
Loan Documents".
3. DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS.
Modifications to Loan Agreement.
1. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting
Section 2.1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the
following:
"2.1 REQUEST FOR ADVANCES. During the Facility
Period, subject to the terms herein, Borrower may
either offer accounts receivable or the Placeholder
Invoice to Bank and request that the Bank finance
such accounts receivable or the Placeholder Invoice,
if there is not an Event of Default. Borrower will
deliver an Invoice Transmittal for each accounts
receivable it offers. Bank may rely on information on
or with the Invoice Transmittal."
2. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting
Section 2.2 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the
following:
"2.2 ACCEPTANCE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Bank is
not obligated to finance any accounts receivable or
the Placeholder Invoice. Bank may approve any Account
Debtor's credit before agreeing to finance any
accounts receivable. When Bank agrees to finance a
receivable or the Placeholder Invoice, it will extend
credit to Borrower in an amount up to either (a) the
result of the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by
the face amount of the receivable or (b) the result
of the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by value of
the Placeholder Invoice (the "Advance"). Bank may, in
its reasonable discretion, change the percentage of
the Advance Rate for a particular receivable on a
case by case basis or with respect to the Placeholder
Invoice. When Bank makes an Advance, the receivable
or the Placeholder Invoice becomes a "Financed
Receivable." All representations and warranties in
Section 6 must be true as of the date of the Invoice
Transmittal and of the Advance and no Event of
Default exists or would occur as a result of the
Advance. The aggregate face amount of all Financed
Receivables outstanding at
any time may not exceed the Facility Amount. In
addition, at any time that an Advance is outstanding
based upon the Placeholder Invoice, no other Advances
will be made by Bank hereunder. Any Advances
outstanding on the date which Bank agrees to finance
the Placeholder Invoice shall be repaid prior to Bank
making any Advance based on the Placeholder Invoice
(or otherwise repaid with the proceeds of such
Advance). Although Bank's obligation to make an
Advance is discretionary in each instance, Bank
acknowledges that (subject to verifications and other
terms and conditions provided herein with respect to
Account Debtors generally), it is the usual practice
of Bank to finance accounts receivable due and owing
from those Account Debtors that are Fortune 1000 type
companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank will
not finance the Placeholder Invoice after May 1, 2004
(and all Advances made based on the Placeholder
Invoice shall be immediately repaid at such time);
provided, however, in the event that Borrower's
Liquidity Ratio is at least 2.0 to 1.0, then Borrower
may continue to offer the Placeholder Invoice for
financing hereunder after May 1, 2004 and Bank may,
in its discretion as further described herein,
continue to finance the Placeholder Invoice. If Bank
will not finance the Placeholder Invoice, then
Borrower may offer to Bank accounts receivable for
financing as provided under Sections 2.1 and 2.2
hereof."
3. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting
Section 3.4 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the
following:
"3.4 COLLATERAL HANDLING FEE. On each
Reconciliation Day, Borrower will pay to Bank a
collateral handling fee equal to 0.25% per month of
the average daily Financed Receivable Balance
outstanding during the applicable Reconciliation
Period (the "Collateral Handling Fee"); provided,
however, after the occurrence of the Capitalization
Event and provided Borrower's Liquidity Ratio is at
least 2.0 to 1.0, the Collateral Handling Fee shall
reduce to 0.15% per month of the average daily
Financed Receivable Balance outstanding during the
applicable Reconciliation Period, to be effective on
the first day of the month following the receipt by
Bank of satisfactory evidence of same from Borrower;
provided further, however, in the event that, at any
time, the Borrower's Liquidity Ratio shall be less
than 2.0 to 1.0, the Collateral Handling Fee shall
immediately and retroactively (to the beginning of
the applicable Reconciliation Period) increase to
0.25% per month of the average daily Financed
Receivable Balance outstanding during the applicable
Reconciliation Period. After an Event of Default, the
Collateral Handling Fee will increase an additional
0.25% effective immediately before the Event of
Default."
4. The Loan Agreement shall be amended by deleting
Section 4.1 thereof and inserting in lieu thereof the
following:
"4.1 REPAYMENT ON MATURITY. Borrower will repay
each Advance on the earliest of: (a) payment of the
Financed Receivable in respect which the Advance was
made, (b) the Financed Receivable becomes an
Ineligible Receivable, (c) when any Adjustment is
made to the Financed Receivable (but only to the
extent of the Adjustment if the Financed Receivable
is not otherwise an Ineligible Receivable), (d) the
last day of the Facility Period (including any early
termination), (e) with respect to Advances made based
upon accounts receivable (rather than the Placeholder
Invoice), simultaneously with Bank making any Advance
based on the Placeholder Invoice, or (f) with respect
to Advances made based on the Placeholder Invoice,
(i) on May 1, 2004, provided, however, if Borrower's
Liquidity Ratio is at least 2.0 to 1.0 on May 1, 2004
then (ii) on any date after May 1, 2004 in which
Borrower's Liquidity Ratio is less than 2.0 to 1.0,
as measured as of the last day of the month. Each
payment will also include all accrued Finance Charges
on the Advance and all other amounts due hereunder."

the contrary, from and after the date of this Loan
Modification Agreement, the Early Termination Fee
shall be

professional services revenue used by Borrower to
determine the amount of the Placeholder Invoice is
based upon the best information available to Borrower
and accurately and fully reflects same."
