2.2 WCMA LOANS
(a) ACTIVATION DATE. Provided that: (i) the Commitment Expiration Date shall not
then have occurred, and (ii) Customer shall have subscribed to the WCMA Program
and its subscription to the WCMA Program shall then be in effect, the Activation
Date shall occur on or promptly after the date, following the acceptance of this
Loan Agreement by MLBFS at its office in Chicago, Illinois, upon which each of
the General Funding Conditions shall have been met or satisfied to the
reasonable satisfaction of MLBFS. No activation by MLBFS of the WCMA Line of
Credit for a nominal amount shall be deemed evidence of the satisfaction of any
of the conditions herein set forth, or a waiver of any of the terms or
conditions hereof. Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS to pay out of and charge to
Customer's WCMA Account on the Activation Date any and all amounts necessary to
fully pay off any bank or other financial institution having a lien upon any of
the Collateral other than a Permitted Lien.
(b) WCMA LOANS. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, during the period
from and after the Activation Date to the first to occur of the Maturity Date or
the date of termination of the WCMA line of Credit pursuant to the terms hereof
and in addition to WCMA Loans automatically made to pay accrued interest, as
hereafter provided: (i) MLBFS will make WCMA Loans to Customer in such amounts
as Customer may from time to time request in accordance with the terms hereof,
up to an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the Maximum WCMA Line of
Credit, and (ii) Customer may repay any WCMA Loans in whole or in part at any
time, and request a re-borrowing of amounts repaid on a revolving basis.
Customer may request such WCMA Loans by use of WCMA Checks, FTS, Visa(R)
charges, wire transfers, or such other means of access to the WCMA Line of
Credit as may be permitted by MLBFS from time to time; it being understood that
so long as the WCMA Line of Credit shall be in effect, any charge or debit to
the WCMA Account which but for the WCMA Line of Credit would under the terms of
the WCMA Agreement result in an overdraft, shall be deemed a request by Customer
for a WCMA Loan.
(c) CONDITIONS OF WCMA LOANS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MLBFS shall not be
obligated to make any WCMA Loan, and may without notice refuse to honor any such
request by Customer, if at the time of receipt by MLBFS of Customers request:
(i) the making of such WCMA Loan would cause the Maximum WCMA Line of Credit to
be exceeded; or (ii) the Maturity Date shall have occurred, or the WCMA Line of
Credit shall have otherwise been terminated in accordance with the terms hereof;
or (iii) Customer's subscription to the WCMA Program shall have been terminated;
or (iv) an event shall have occurred and be continuing which shall have caused
any of the General Funding Conditions to not then be met or satisfied to the
reasonable satisfaction of MLBFS. The making by MLBFS of any WCMA Loan at a time
when any one or more of said conditions shall not have been met shall not in any
event be construed as a waiver of said condition or conditions or of any
Default, and shall not prevent MLBFS at any time thereafter while any condition
shall not have been met from refusing to honor any request by Customer for a
WCMA Loan.
(d) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. MLBFS shall not be responsible, and shall have no
liability to Customer or any other party, for any delay or failure of MLBFS to
honor any request of Customer for a WCMA Loan or any other act or omission of
MLBFS, MLPF&S or any of their affiliates due to or resulting from any system
failure, error or delay in posting or other clerical error, loss of power, fire,
Act of God or other cause beyond the reasonable control of MLBFS, MLPF&S or any
of their affiliates unless directly arising out of the willful wrongful act or
active gross negligence of MLBFS. In no event shall MLBFS be liable
-3-
to Customer or any other party for any incidental or consequential damages
arising from any act or omission by MLBFS, MLPF&S or any of their affiliates in
connection with the WCMA Line of Credit or this Loan Agreement.
(e) INTEREST. (i) An amount equal to accrued interest on the daily WCMA Loan
Balance shall be payable by Customer monthly on each Interest Due Date,
commencing with the first Interest Due Date after the Activation Date. Unless
otherwise hereafter directed in writing by MLBFS on or after the first to occur
of the Maturity Date or the date of termination of the WCMA Line of Credit
pursuant to the terms hereof such interest will be automatically charged to the
WCMA Account on the applicable Interest Due Date, and, to the extent not paid
with free credit balances or the proceeds of sales of any Money Accounts then in
the WCMA Account, as hereafter provided, paid by a WCMA Loan and added to the
WCMA Loan Balance. All interest shall be computed for the actual number of days
elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days.
(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default but without
limiting the rights and remedies otherwise available to MLBFS hereunder or
waiving such Default, the interest payable by Customer hereunder shall at the
option of MLBFS accrue and be payable at the Default Rate. The Default Rate,
once implemented, shall continue to apply to the Obligations under this Loan
Agreement and be payable by Customer until the date MLBFS gives written notice
that such Default has been cured to the satisfaction of MLBFS.
(iii) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any of the Loan
Documents, no provision of any of the Loan Documents shall require the payment
or permit the collection of Excess Interest. If any Excess Interest is provided
for, or is adjudicated as being provided for, in any of the Loan Documents,
then: (A) Customer shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; and (B)
any Excess Interest that MLBFS may have received hereunder or under any of the
Loan Documents shall, at the option of MLBFS, be either applied as a credit
against the then unpaid WCMA Loan Balance or refunded to the payor thereof.
(f) PAYMENTS. All payments required or permitted to be made pursuant to this
Loan Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States. Unless
otherwise directed by MLBFS, payments on account of the WCMA Loan Balance may be
made by the delivery of checks (other than WCMA Checks), or by means of FTS or
wire transfer of funds (other than funds from the WCMA Line of Credit) to MLPF&S
for credit to Customer's WCMA Account. Notwithstanding anything in the WCMA
Agreement to the contrary, Customer hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs
MLPF&S to apply available free credit balances in the WCMA Account to the
repayment of the WCMA Loan Balance prior to application for any other purpose.
Payments to MLBFS from funds in the WCMA Account shall be deemed to be made by
Customer upon the same basis and schedule as funds are made available for
investment in the Money Accounts in accordance with the terms of the WCMA
Agreement. All funds received by MLBFS from MLPF&S pursuant to the aforesaid
authorization shall be applied by MLBFS to repayment of the WCMA Loan Balance.
The acceptance by or on behalf of MLBFS of a check or other payment for a lesser
amount than shall be due from Customer, regardless of any endorsement or
statement thereon or transmitted therewith, shall not be deemed an accord and
satisfaction or anything other than a payment on account, and MLBFS or anyone
acting on behalf of MLBFS may accept such check or other payment without
prejudice to the rights of MLBFS to recover the balance actually due or to
pursue any other remedy under this Loan Agreement or applicable law for such
balance. All checks accepted by or on behalf of MLBFS in connection with the
WCMA Line of Credit are subject to final collection.
(g) IRREVOCABLE INSTRUCTIONS TO MLPF&S. In order to minimize the WCMA Loan
Balance, Customer hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs MLPF&S, effective on
the Activation Date and continuing thereafter so long as this Loan Agreement
shall be in effect: (i) to immediately and prior to application for any other
purpose pay to MLBFS to the extent of any WCMA Loan Balance or other amounts
payable by Customer hereunder all available free credit balances from time to
time in the WCMA Account; and (ii) if such available free credit balances are
insufficient to pay the WCMA Loan Balance and such other amounts, and there are
in the WCMA Account at any time any investments in Money Accounts (other than
any investments constituting any Minimum Money Accounts Balance under the WCMA
Directed Reserve Program), to immediately liquidate such investments and pay to
MLBFS to the extent of any WCMA Loan Balance and such other amounts the
available proceeds from the liquidation of any such Money Accounts.
(h) LATE CHARGE. Any payment or deposit required to be made by Customer pursuant
to the Loan Documents not paid or made within ten (10) days of the applicable
due date shall be subject to a late charge in an amount equal to the lesser oft
(a) 5% of the overdue amount, or (b) the maximum amount permitted by applicable
law. Such late charge shall be payable on demand, or, without demand, may in the
sole discretion of MLBFS be paid by a Subsequent WCMA Loan and added to the WCMA
Loan Balance in the same manner as provided herein for accrued interest with
respect to the WCMA Line of Credit.
(i) STATEMENTS. MLPF&S will include in each monthly statement it issues under
the WCMA Program information with respect to WCMA Loans and the WCMA Loan
Balance. Any questions that Customer may have with respect to such information
should be directed to MLBFS; and any questions with respect to any other matter
in such statements or about or affecting the WCMA Program should be directed to
MLPF&S.
(j) USE OF WCMA LOAN PROCEEDS. The proceeds of each WCMA Loan initiated by
Customer shall be used by Customer solely for working capital in the ordinary
course of its business, or, with the prior written consent of MLBFS, for other
lawful business purposes of Customer not prohibited hereby. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE PROCEEDS OF ANY WCMA LOAN BE USED: (i) FOR
PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES OF ANY PERSON WHATSOEVER, OR (ii) TO
PURCHASE, CARRY OR TRADE IN SECURITIES, OR REPAY DEBT INCURRED TO PURCHASE,
CARRY OR TRADE IN SECURITIES, WHETHER IN OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE WCMA ACCOUNT,
ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF CUSTOMER WITH MLPF&S OR AN ACCOUNT OF CUSTOMER AT ANY OTHER
BROKER OR DEALER IN SECURITIES, OR (iii) UNLESS OTHERWISE CONSENTED TO IN
WRITING BY MLBFS, TO PAY ANY AMOUNT TO ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ AND CO., INC. OR ANY OF ITS
SUBSIDIARIES, OTHER ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ BANK USA, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ BANK & TRUST CO.
OR ANY SUBSIDIARY OF EITHER OF THEM (INCLUDING MLBFS AND ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ CREDIT
CORPORATION).
(k) RENEWAL AT OPTION OF MLBFS; RIGHT OF CUSTOMER TO TERMINATE. MLBFS may at any
time, in its sole discretion and at its sole option, renew the WCMA Line of
Credit for one or more Renewal Years; it being understood, however, that no such
renewal shall be effective unless set forth in a writing executed by a duly
authorized representative of MLBFS and delivered to Customer. Unless any such
renewal is accompanied by a proposed change in the terms of the WCMA Line of
Credit (other than the extension of the Maturity Date), no such renewal shall
require Customer's approval. Customer shall, however, have the
-4-
right to terminate the WCMA Line of Credit at any time upon written notice to
MLBFS. Concurrently with any such termination, Customer shall pay to MLBFS the
entire WCMA Loan Balance and all other Obligations.
(i) LINE FEES. (i) In consideration of the extension of the WCMA Line of Credit
by MLBFS to Customer during the period from the Activation Date to and including
the last day of August, 2003 (the "Initial Line Period"), Customer has paid or
shall pay the initial Line Fee to MLBFS. If the initial Line Fee has not
heretofore been paid by Customer, Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS, at its
option, to either cause the initial Line Fee to be paid on the Activation Date
with a WCMA Loan, or invoice Customer for such initial Line Fee (in which event
Customer shall pay said fee within 5 Business Days after receipt of such
invoice). No delay in the Activation Date, howsoever caused, shall entitle
Customer to any rebate or reduction in the Line Fee or to any extension of the
Initial Maturity Date.
(ii) Customer shall pay to MLBFS an additional Line Fee for each 12-month period
following the Initial Line Period to the Initial Maturity Date, and for each
Renewal Year. In connection therewith, Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS, at its
option, to either cause each such additional Line Fee to be paid with a WCMA
Loan on or at any time after the first Business Day of such 12-month period or
Renewal Year, as applicable, or invoiced to Customer at such time (in which
event Customer shall pay such Line Fee within 5 Business Days after receipt of
such invoice). Each Line Fee shall be deemed fully earned by MLBFS on the date
payable by Customer, and no termination of the WCMA Line of Credit, howsoever
caused, shall entitle Customer to any rebate or refund of any portion of such
Line Fee; provided, however, that if Customer shall terminate the WCMA Line of
Credit not later than 5 Business Days after the receipt by Customer of notice
from MLBFS of a renewal of the WCMA Line of Credit, Customer shall be entitled
to a refund of any Line Fee charged by MLBFS for the ensuing Renewal Year.

the occurrence of such Event of Loss, or (ii) 10 Business Days after the date on
which either Customer or MLBFS shall receive any proceeds of insurance on
account of such Event of Loss, or any underwriter of insurance on such
Collateral shall advise either Customer or MLBFS that it disclaims liability in
respect of such Event of Loss, Customer shall, at Customer's option, either
replace the Collateral subject to such Event of Loss with comparable Collateral
free of all liens other than Permitted Liens (in which event Customer shall be
entitled to utilize the proceeds of insurance on account of such Event of Loss
for such purpose, and may retain any excess proceeds of such insurance), or
permanently prepay the Obligations by an amount equal to the actual cash value
of such Collateral as determined by either the insurance company's payment (plus
any applicable deductible) or, in absence of insurance company payment, as
reasonably determined by MLBFS; it being further understood that any such
permanent prepayment shall cause an immediate permanent reduction in the Maximum
WCMA Line of Credit in the amount of such prepayment and shall not reduce the
amount of any future reductions in the Maximum WCMA Line of Credit that may be
required hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of occurrence
of such Event of Loss or any time thereafter prior to replacement or line
reduction, as aforesaid, an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing hereunder, then MLBFS may at its sole option, exercisable at any time
while such Event of Default shall be continuing, require Customer to either
replace such Collateral or prepay the Obligations and reduce the Maximum WCMA
Line of Credit, as aforesaid.

attachment, lien, judicial process, encumbrance or claim affecting or involving
$25,000.00 or more of the Collateral.
(k) INDEMNIFICATION. Customer shall indemnify, defend and save MLBFS harmless
from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any
nature whatsoever which may be asserted against or incurred by MLBFS arising out
of or in any manner occasioned by (i) the ownership, collection, possession, use
or operation of any Collateral, or (ii) any failure by Customer to perform any
of its obligations hereunder; excluding, however, from said indemnity any such
claims, liabilities, etc. arising directly out of the willful wrongful act or
active gross negligence of MLBFS. This indemnity shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Loan Agreement as to all matters arising or accruing prior
to such expiration or termination.

Default" under this Loan Agreement:

intent of Section 1-208 of the UCC.

thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Neither any waiver

current creditors, and other persons and sources (including, without limitation,
any Affiliate of MLBFS) and to provide to any references, consumer reporting

(including, without limitation, affiliates of MLBFS) all financial, credit and
other information obtained by MLBFS relating to the Customer.
(c) COMMUNICATIONS. Delivery of an agreement, instrument or other document may,

(d) FEES, EXPENSES AND TAXES. Customer shall pay or reimburse MLBFS for: (i) all
UCC, real property or other filing, recording, and search fees and expenses
incurred by MLBFS in connection with the verification, perfection or
preservation of MLBFS' rights hereunder or in any Collateral or any other
collateral for the Obligations; (ii) any and all stamp, transfer, mortgage,
intangible, document, filing, recording and other taxes and fees payable or
determined to be payable in connection with the borrowings hereunder or the

connection with the preparation, execution, administration, collection,
enforcement, protection, waiver or amendment of this Loan Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and such other instruments or documents, and the rights and
remedies of MLBFS thereunder and all other matters in connection therewith.
Customer hereby authorizes MLBFS, at its option, to either cause any and all
such fees, expenses and taxes to be paid with a WCMA Loan, or invoice Customer

within 5 Business Days after receipt of such invoice). The obligations of
Customer under this paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Loan Agreement and the discharge of the other Obligations.
(e) RIGHT TO PERFORM OBLIGATIONS. If Customer shall fail to do any act or thing
which it has covenanted to do under any of the Loan Documents or any
representation or warranty on the part of Customer contained in the Loan
Documents shall be breached, MLBFS may, in its sole discretion, after 5 Business
Days written notice is sent to Customer (or such lesser notice, including no
notice, as is reasonable under the circumstances), do the same or cause it to be
done or remedy any such breach, and may expend its funds for such purpose. Any
and all reasonable amounts so expended by MLBFS shall be repayable to MLBFS by
Customer upon demand, with interest at the Interest Rate during the period from
and including the date funds are so expended by MLBFS to the date of repayment
and all such amounts shall be additional Obligations. The payment or performance

RE: AMENDMENT TO LOAN DOCUMENTS
Ladies & Gentlemen:
This Letter Agreement will serve to confirm certain agreements of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
Business Financial Services Inc. ("MLBFS") and Health Fitness Corporation
("Customer") with respect to: (i) that certain WCMA LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
NO. 673-07214 between MLBFS and Customer (including any previous amendments and
extensions thereof), and (ii) all other agreements between MLBFS and Customer or
any party who has guaranteed or provided collateral for Customer's obligations
to MLBFS (a "Guarantor") in Connection therewith (collectively, the "Loan
Documents"). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the
meaning set forth in the Loan Documents.
Subject to the terms hereof, effective as of the "Effective Date" (as defined
below), the Loan Documents are hereby amended as follows:
(a) Change in Control/Change in Management shall mean, (i) Any direct or
indirect sale, conveyance, assignment or other transfer of or grant of a
security interest in any ownership interest of any Credit Party which results,
or if any rights related thereto were exercised would result, in any change in
the identity of the individuals or entities in control of any Credit Party; or
(ii) the owner(s) of the controlling equity interest of the Customer on the date
hereof shall cease to own and control such Credit Party.
(b) Section 3.3 (d) shall be amended to include the following sentence:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, MLBFS will consider one written request of
Customer for a press release provided it is clear MLBFS is the entity providing
the financing and that only financing is being provided, but MLBFS will be under
no obligation to approve such press release, and any such approval must be in
writing.
(c) Section 3.1 (g) shall be amended and restated as follows: No litigation,
arbitration, administrative or governmental proceedings are pending or, to the
knowledge of Customer, threatened against any Credit Party, which would, if
adversely determined, materially and adversely affect (i) such Credit Party's
interest in the Collateral or the liens and security interests of MLBFS
hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or (ii) the financial condition of
any Credit Party or its continued operations, except for a lawsuit in which
Customer and others are a defendant with respect to an Agreement to Purchase
Assets dated May 14, 1999 among Customer and Heath Fitness Corporation and
others. Such lawsuit was originally filed against Customer in the United States
District Court for the District of Minnesota Fourth Division, #00-880MJD/JGL and
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ BUSINESS FINANCIAL SERVICES INC.
Health Fitness Corporation
October 2, 2002
Page No. 2
is now on appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit,
No. 02-2726 (the "Lawsuit"). Each Credit Party is in compliance in all material
respects with all laws, regulations, requirements and approvals applicable to
such Credit Party.
(d) Section 3.5 shall be amended to include the following paragraph:
(n) LAWSUIT. A judgment is entered against Customer in connection with
the Lawsuit in the amount of $1,500,000 or more by the United States
Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit.
Except as expressly amended hereby, the Loan Documents shall continue in full
force and effect upon all of their terms and conditions.
By their execution of this Letter Agreement, the below-named Guarantors hereby
consent to the foregoing modifications to the Loan Documents, and hereby agree
that the "Obligations" under their respective Unconditional Guaranty and/or
agreements providing collateral shall extend to and include the Obligations of
Customer under the Loan Documents, as amended hereby.
Customer and said Guarantors acknowledge, warrant and agree, as a primary
inducement to MLBFS to enter into this Agreement, that: (a) no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Documents; (b) each of
the warranties of Customer in the Loan Documents are true and correct as of the
date hereof and shall be deemed remade as of the date hereof; (c) neither
Customer nor any of said Guarantors have any claim against MLBFS or any of its
affiliates arising out of or in connection with the Loan Documents or any other
matter whatsoever; and (d) neither Customer nor any of said Guarantors have any
defense to payment of any amounts owing, or any right of counterclaim for any
reason under, the Loan Documents.
Provided that no Event of Default, or event which with the giving of notice,
passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, shall then have
occurred and be continuing under the terms of the Loan Documents, the amendments
and agreements in this Letter Agreement will become effective on the date (the
"Effective Date") upon which: (a) Customer and the Guarantors shall have
executed and returned the duplicate copy of this Letter Agreement enclosed
herewith; and (b) an officer of MLBFS shall have reviewed and approved this
Letter Agreement as being consistent in all respects with the original internal
authorization hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Customer and the Guarantors do not execute and
return the duplicate copy of this Letter Agreement within 14 days from the date
hereof, or if for any other reason (other than the sole fault of MLBFS) the
Effective Date shall not occur within said 14-day period, then all of said
amendments and agreements will, at the sole option of MLBFS, be void.
Very truly yours,

Re: Partial Activation of WCMA Line of Credit No. 673-07214
Side Letter Agreement between Customer and MLBFS
Dear ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
In connection with our approval of a WCMA Line of Credit for Health Fitness
Corporation ("Customer"), we have been requested by Customer to partially
activate the line of credit with an initial Maximum WCMA Line of Credit of
$2,750,000.00 in spite of the fact that all of the conditions of our approval
have not been satisfied. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth, we are willing to comply with Customer's request for such a partial
activation, effective upon the "Effective Date" (as hereafter defined).
As of the date hereof, the following condition of our approval has not been
satisfied:
Receipt of a satisfactory payoff letter from Coast Business Credit.
Coast Business Credit has requested that MLBFS provide an indemnification to it
for a period of 30 days in the aggregate amount of $100,000.00, i.e., through
and including November 30, 2002. (See the payoff letter dated October 31, 2002
from Coast Business Credit, attached hereto and made a part hereof.) Customer
has requested MLBFS to provide such indemnification to Coast Business Credit
using the proceeds of the WCMA Line of Credit for reserves to the extent Coast
Business Credit exercising its rights under the indemnification so provided by
MLBFS.

described above (the "Reserves"). Customer further acknowledges and agrees that
although the Reserves shall not be available for use by Customer during the

effect the obligations of Customer under the Loan Agreement. Further, for the
period of time effective the date hereof through and including the duration of
the Indemnification Period only, the term "Maximum WCMA Line of Credit" shall
mean, as of any date of determination thereof, an amount equal to the lesser of:
(A) $2,750,000.00, including the Reserves, or (B) 80% of Customer's Accounts and
Chattel Paper, as shown on its regular books and records (excluding Accounts

Customer unconditionally agrees to pay to MLBFS as to any amounts due under the
Reserves or claims drawn under or made in connection with any of the Reserves
during the Indemnification Period, all amounts paid or payable by MLBFS under,
pursuant to or in connection with such Reserves or indemnification by MLBFS in
favor of Coast Business Credit;) all fees and charges of MLBFS in connection
with such indemnification and/or the Reserves or payments thereof, which fees
and charges shall be in such amount or at such rate as MLBFS shall determine in
its sole discretion; and any and all expenses, obligations or charges paid or
incurred by MLBFS in connection with such Reserves, the indemnification and/or
the Loan Agreement.
Customer agrees that MLBFS shall not be responsible for, and Customer's
obligation to pay and/or reimburse MLBFS shall not be affected by and MLBFS
shall have no duty to inquire into: (i) the existence of any disputes or
controversies between Customer and Coast Business Credit or any other person, or
(ii) the truth, accuracy or occurrence of any fact or event referred to in any
certificate or other demand for indemnification by Coast Business Credit
presented under or in connection with any of the Reserves; (iii) acts or
omissions of any other person, including without limitation Coast Business
Credit, (iv) breach of contract between Customer and Coast Business Credit or
any other party; (v) consequences of compliance with laws, orders, regulations
or customs in effect in places of negotiation or payment of any Reserves.
Nothing in this letter shall be deemed a waiver by us of any of the terms and
conditions of the agreements between Customer and us (the "Loan Documents") or
entitle Customer to any rebate or reduction in the WCMA Line Fee or any other
fees set forth in the Loan Documents. Except as expressly amended hereby, the
Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect upon all of their terms
and conditions.
Provided that no Event of Default, or event which with the giving of notice,
passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, shall then have
occurred and be continuing under the terms of the Loan Documents, the agreements
in this Letter Agreement will become effective on the date (the "Effective
Date") upon which: (i) Customer shall have executed and returned the duplicate
copy of this Letter Agreement enclosed herewith; and (ii) an officer of MLBFS
shall have reviewed and approved this Letter Agreement as being consistent in
all respects with the original internal authorization hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if Customer does not execute and return the duplicate copy of
this Letter Agreement within 14 days from the date hereof, or if for any other
reason (other than the sole fault of MLBFS) the Effective Date shall not occur
within said 14-day period, then this Letter Agreement will, at the sole option
of MLBFS, be void.
