8
13
amount of Obligations under the Term Loan outstanding from time to time,

SECTION 3.01 Line Commitment. Any principal amount of the Line Loan which
is repaid or prepaid by the Borrower subsequent to the Funding Date may not be

SECTION 3.02 Making the Line Loan. On the Funding Date and after receipt
by the Lender of a written request for a loan in substantially the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto, the Lender shall make available to the Borrower an
amount (the "Funding Date Loan Amount") equal to the positive difference
between the outstanding principal amount of the Line Loans (as defined in the
Old Agreement) on the Funding Date and the Line Commitment, and the

9
14
Borrower shall, upon satisfaction of all of the conditions relating thereto
contained herein and in the other Loan Documents, borrow the Funding Date Loan
Amount on the terms and conditions set forth hereunder. The sum of (a) the
outstanding principal amount of the Line Loans as of the opening of business on
the Funding Date and (b) the Funding Date Loan Amount shall be evidenced by the
Line Note and shall be the "Line Loan". The Lender may act without liability
upon the basis of written notice believed by the Lender in good faith to be

Loan Amount to the Borrower by delivering the proceeds thereof, in immediately
available funds (either in the form of a certified bank check or wire transfer)
less the fees and expenses then due and payable under Sections 4.01(a) and 9.04
hereof. The outstanding amount of the Line Loan may be increased to provide

the Post-Default Rate shall be payable on demand.

SECTION 3.04 Repayment. The Line Loan shall be payable as to principal in
full on the Maturity Date, together with all such other amounts as may be
necessary to repay in full all unpaid Line Obligations to the Lender. In the
event that the Line Loan is prepaid due to acceleration of the Line Loan after
the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount of the outstanding principal
of the Line Loan shall be determined by multiplying the outstanding principal
amount under the Line Note by the Prepayment Factor.

SECTION 3.05 Prepayment of the Line Loan. The Borrower may, on the same
Business Day's telephone notice no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time)

FEES, PAYMENTS, DEFAULT INTEREST AND OTHER COMPENSATION

SECTION 4.01 Fees and Other Consideration. The fees and other
consideration provided for herein are in addition to the fees and other
consideration due and payable on the Final Term Funding Date pursuant to the
Old Agreement.

(a) Loan Fees. On July 2, 1997, the Borrower
shall pay to the Lender, in immediately available funds, a non-refundable fee
(the "Loan Fee") of $1,818,120; provided, however, that the Borrower may elect
to pay such fee in 12 monthly installments, the first installment to be in the
amount of $243,176.67, and to be due and payable on the Closing Date, and the
remaining eleven installments to be due and payable in equal monthly
installments in the amount of $143,176.67 each, in immediately available funds
on the last day of each calendar month beginning on August 31, 1997, and ending
on June 30, 1998; provided, however, that each of the Borrower and the
Guarantor hereby acknowledges and confirms that the Loan Fee has been
unconditionally earned by the Lender as of the Closing Date. The Borrower
hereby instructs the Lender to withhold such portion of the Loan Fee due on the
Closing Date, as elected by the Borrower, from the proceeds of the Funding Date
Loan Amount, and the amount so withheld shall constitute a part of the Line
Loan for all purposes hereunder.

(b) Audit and Collateral Monitoring Fees. The
Borrower shall pay to the Lender on each anniversary of the Effective Date, the
costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the periodic
collateral appraisals and audit reviews performed by or on behalf of the Lender
in such year; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrower's obligation under this Subsection
3.01(c) shall be limited to $25,000 for each 365 (or 366, as applicable) day
period following the Effective Date.

(c) Common Stock. On the Final Term Funding Date
(as defined in the Old Agreement), the Guarantor shall deliver to the Lender
Stock Certificates, in such denominations as the Lender may request, validly
issued to the Lender or its designee, representing 550,000 shares of Common
Stock; provided, however, that the Borrower and the Guarantor may elect to
issue and deliver such shares in 13 installments, the first such installment to
be delivered on the Final Term Funding Date in the amount of 42,316 shares of
Common Stock, and the remaining 12 installments of 42,307 shares of Common
Stock to be delivered on the first day of each calendar month beginning on
January 1, 1997, and ending on December 1, 1997;

provided, however, that such shares shall be issued to the Lender or its
designee only upon the payment by the Lender to the Guarantor of an amount
equal to the product of (i) the par value of the Common Stock and (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued; provided, further, that the
number of shares of Common Stock of the Guarantor to be received by the Lender
pursuant to Section 4.01(c) after the Final Term Funding Date shall, subject to
the provisions of Section 7 of the Warrants which relate to limitations on the
Lender's right to anti-

11
16
dilution protection, be adjusted to the extent necessary to insure that the
Lender will receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal in percentage to
the percentage of the Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) that such shares
represent of the Common Stock of the Guarantor issued and outstanding (on a
fully-diluted basis) on the Final Term Funding Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) an Event of
Default has occurred, (ii) the Obligations relating to the Term Loan have been
repaid in full, (iii) any single Person, group of Affiliated Persons, or
Affiliate thereof controls, or acquires control of, the voting rights of 35% or
more of the Common Stock, or (iv) the Guarantor merges or becomes consolidated
with any other Person in a transaction in which the Guarantor is not the
surviving entity, or sells all or substantially all of its assets, then the
Guarantor shall deliver to the Lender all of the shares of Common Stock due to
the Lender pursuant to paragraph 4.01(d)(ii) above upon demand by the Lender.

If the issuance of shares to the Lender would result
in a put obligation (the "Put") pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Stock Transfer
Agreement, then the maximum number of shares that may be issued without
resulting in a Put shall be issued to the Lender as hereinabove set forth, and
the Borrower shall issue to the Lender warrants for the purchase of the
remaining shares due to be issued to the Lender hereunder with an Exercise
Price (as defined in the Warrant) equal to the par value of the Common Stock.
Each Stock Certificate issued hereunder shall bear the following legend:

"The Shares represented by this certificate have not
been registered or qualified under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, or the "blue sky" laws of any
state, and may be offered or sold only if registered
and qualified pursuant to the relevant provisions of
federal and state securities laws, or if an exemption
from such registration or qualification is
applicable, upon an opinion of counsel to the issuer
that such transfer will not violate any federal or
state securities laws applicable thereto."

The parties hereto agree that, for income tax
purposes, the purchase price to be attributed to the shares of Common Stock
issued to the Lender hereunder on the date hereof is $_______________.

(d) Warrants. On the Final Term Funding Date,
the Guarantor shall issue and deliver to the Lender or its designee validly
issued Warrants, for the purchase of 1,632,140 shares of Common Stock, with an
Expiration Date (as defined in the Warrant) of five years from the date of
issuance of such Warrant, and an Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrant)
equal to $1.06; provided, however, that the Guarantor and the Borrower may
elect to issue and deliver such Warrants in 13 equal installments (provided
that the first installment may be increased such that the remaining twelve
installments shall be for a non-fractional number of

12
17
Warrants), the first such installment to be delivered on the Final Term Funding
Date and the remaining 12 installments to be delivered on the first day of each
calendar month beginning on January 1, 1997, and ending on December 1, 1997.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) an Event of
Default has occurred, (ii) the Obligations relating to the Term Loan have been
repaid in full, (iii) any single Person, group of affiliated Persons or
Affiliate thereof controls, or acquires control of, the voting rights of 35% or
more of the Common Stock, or (iv) the Guarantor merges, becomes consolidated
with any other Person in a transaction in which the Guarantor is not the
surviving entity, or sells all or substantially all of its assets, then the
Guarantor shall deliver to the Lender all of the Warrants due to the Lender
pursuant to paragraph 4.01(d) above upon demand by the Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that
there shall occur at any time, prior to any such issuance of Warrants, any
event of a type that would require adjustment of the number of shares issuable
upon the exercise of the Warrants or the Exercise Price (as defined in the
Warrant) of such shares to the extent that such Warrants already had been
issued, the number of shares to be issued under such Warrant, and the Exercise
Price thereof, shall prior to issuance, be adjusted in the manner provided in
Section 7 of the Warrant. Any such adjusted number of shares issuable pursuant
to a Warrant and any such adjusted Exercise Price shall be reflected in the
Warrant at the time of the issuance thereof.

The parties hereto agree that, for income tax
purposes, the purchase price to be attributed to the Warrants issued to the
Lender hereunder on the date hereof is $_______________.

SECTION 4.02 Payments and Computations. The Borrower will make each
payment under the Loan Documents to which it is a party not later than 2:30
P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money of the United
States of America and in immediately available funds, to the Lender at the
Payment Office, or at such other place or to such account as the Lender may
designate by notice to the Borrower. All payments shall be made by the
Borrower without defense, set-off or counterclaim to the Lender. Subject to
Section 8.01 below, all interest, fees, costs and expenses for which the
Borrower is obligated under any Loan Document shall, if not timely paid by the
Borrower, be added to the principal amount of the Line Loan or the Term Loan,
and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to, and the Lender may, from time
to time, increase the principal amount of the Line Loan and/or the Term Loan by
any such amounts due under any Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party.
The Borrower confirms that any addition to principal which the Lender so makes
to a Loan as herein provided will be made as an accommodation to the Borrower
and solely at the Lender's discretion. Whenever any payment to be made under
any such Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business
Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such
extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest
and fees. All computations of interest under this Agreement and any other Loan
Document and all fees shall be made by the Lender on the basis of a year of 360
days for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such
interest is payable; provided, however, that with

13
18
respect to any date on which the Borrower makes a repayment or prepayment of
principal, interest in respect of such principal repayment or prepayment amount
shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of
days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable but excluding
the day on which such repayment or prepayment of principal is made. In no
event shall prior recourse to any Collateral be a prerequisite to the Lender's
right to demand payment of any Obligation. The Lender's records kept in the
ordinary course of its business shall be presumed to be correct and shall
constitute prima facie evidence of the amount owing or paid with respect to any
Obligation, absent manifest error.

SECTION 4.03 Taxes. (a) If the Borrower shall be required by any
applicable law, rule or regulation to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in
respect of any amount payable hereunder, then (i) the amount so payable shall
be increased to the extent necessary so that after making all required
deductions and withholdings (including Taxes on amounts payable to the Lender
pursuant to this sentence) the Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum
it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii)
the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower
shall pay to the relevant taxation authority the full amount required to be so
deducted or withheld. Whenever any Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as
promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send the Lender an official
receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Lender evidencing such
payment to such authority. If, due to the imposition of any Taxes, the
Lender's tax liability with respect to any amounts payable hereunder to any
other taxing authority is reduced, the amount of such reduction shall be paid
by the Lender to the Borrower upon Borrower's demand therefor; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Lender be required to pay to the Borrower
an amount in excess of the amount withheld by the Borrower in respect of Taxes
due from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder.

(b) If the Lender shall be required to pay any Taxes
in respect of any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, then the
Borrower shall, upon demand by the Lender, pay to the Lender an amount equal to
the difference between (i) the Taxes required to be paid by the Lender, and
(ii) the amount, if any, of the reduction of the Lender's tax liability to any
other taxing authority resulting from the payment of such Taxes; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Lender be required to pay to the Borrower
an amount in excess of the amount paid by the Borrower to the Lender pursuant
to this paragraph 4.03(b).

SECTION 4.04 Default Interest. Any Obligation hereunder, including the
principal of the Loans, fees and (to the extent permitted by law) interest
which is not paid when due (after any applicable grace period therefor set
forth in Section 8 hereof), whether upon demand, by acceleration or otherwise,
and all amounts payable after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, shall bear interest from the day when due until such amount
is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate. In the
event that any amount of principal of, or interest on, any Loan is not paid
within 10 days of the due date thereof (whether by demand, acceleration or
otherwise) when due, the Borrower shall, upon demand,

14
19
pay an additional fee equal to 5% of the amount of such principal and/or
interest not timely paid.

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the
Lender's furnishing of funds to the Borrower under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the management of the Loans, or (iii) any matter relating
to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by any document
executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(collectively, the "Indemnified Matters"); provided, however. that the Borrower
and the Guarantor shall have no obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder for any
Indemnified Matter caused by or resulting from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction. Such indemnification for all of the foregoing losses,
damages, fees, costs and expenses of the Lender shall be part of the
Obligations in respect of the Term Loan (the "Term Obligations"), secured by
the Collateral and added to the principal amount of the Term Loan; provided,
further, however, that if the Term Loan has been paid in full, then all of the
foregoing losses, damages, fees, costs and expenses of the Lender shall be part
of the Line Obligations, secured by the Collateral and added to the principal
amount of the Line Loan. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay
and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.13 may be unenforceable because
it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower and the Guarantor
shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy
under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of

39
44
all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees. The provisions of this
Section 9.-13 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

GUARANTY

SECTION 10.01 Guaranty. The Guarantor, and each other Guarantor that may
become party hereto, hereby (i) irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees the prompt payment, as and when due and payable (whether by
scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), of
(A) all the Obligations, including, without limitation, all amounts now or
hereafter owing in respect of the Loan Documents, whether for principal,
interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, and (B) all indebtedness, obligations
and other liabilities, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now existing
or hereafter arising of the Borrower to the Lender and (ii) agrees, to pay any
and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by
the Lender in enforcing its rights under this Agreement, the Guarantee and each
other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.02 Obligations Unconditional.

(i) the Guarantor and each other Guarantor that
may become party hereto, hereby guarantees that the Obligations will be paid
strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any
law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction
affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Lender with respect thereto.
the Guarantor and each other Guarantor agrees that its guarantee constitutes a
guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to
require that any resort be had by the Lender to any security held for payment
of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the
books of the Lender in favor of the Borrower or for any other reason. The
liability of the Guarantor and each other Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute
and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) any
extension or change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other
term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations (including, without
limitation, any extension for longer than the original period), or any other
amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any provision of any
Loan Document, (iii) any exchange or release of, or non-perfection of any lien
on or security interest in, any Collateral, or any release or amendment or
waiver of or consent to any departure from any other guaranty, for all or any
of the Obligations; or (iv) any other circumstance which might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other
Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or the Guarantor and each other
Guarantor in respect hereof.

(ii) This Guaranty (i) is a continuing guaranty
and shall remain in full force and effect until such date on which all of the
Obligations and all other expenses to be paid by the Guarantor or any other
Guarantor pursuant hereto shall have been satisfied in full after

40
45
the Commitment shall have been terminated, (ii) shall continue to be effective
or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any
of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Lender
upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise,
all as though such payment had not been made. and (iii) shall be binding upon
the Guarantor, any other Guarantor or their respective heirs, executors,
successors and assigns.

SECTION 10.03 Waivers. The Guarantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and
notice of the incurrence of any Obligation, (iii) notice of any action taken by
the Lender or the Borrower or any other agreement or instrument relating
thereto, (iv) all other notices, demands and protests, and all other
formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Obligations
or of the obligations of the Guarantor and each other Guarantor hereunder, the
omission of or delay in which, but for the provisions of this Section 10.03,
might constitute grounds for relieving the Guarantor or any other Guarantor of
its obligations hereunder, and (v) any requirement that the Lender protect,
secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject
thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Person or any
Collateral. All such waivers by the Guarantor shall be effective only to the
extent permitted by applicable law.

SECTION 10.04 Subrogation. The Guarantor hereby waives and agrees that it
will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation
hereunder, by any payment made by it hereunder or otherwise. If the amount
shall be paid to the Guarantor or such other Guarantor on account of such
subrogation rights at any time when all of such Obligations and all other
Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in
trust for the benefit of the Lender, shall be segregated from the other funds
of the Guarantor or such other Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid over to
the Lender to be applied in whole or in part by the Lender against the
Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

SECTION 10.05 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Lender to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedy provided by law.

SECTION 10.06 Taxes.

(a) Each payment by the Guarantor under this Loan
Agreement shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or
future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the Lender, taxes
imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it by the jurisdiction
(or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which the Lender is
organized (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges,
withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes");
provided, however, that if such Other Taxes are

41
46
required by law to be withheld from any such payment, the Guarantor shall make
such withholding for the account of the Lender, make timely payment thereof to
the appropriate governmental authority, and forthwith pay for the account of
the Lender such additional amount as may be necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 10.06.) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made. All such Other Taxes
shall be paid by the Guarantor prior to the date on which penalties attach
thereto or interest accrues thereon; provided, however. that, if any such
penalties or interest become due, the Guarantor shall make prompt payment
thereof to the appropriate governmental authority.

(b) the Guarantor will indemnify the Lender for
the full amount of Other Taxes (including any Other Taxes on amounts payable
under this Section 10.06.) paid by the Lender and any liability (including
penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This
indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Lender makes
written demand therefor.

(c) Within 30 days after the date of any payment
of Other Taxes, the Guarantor will furnish to the Lender the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no. Other Taxes are
payable in respect of any payment hereunder or under any Note, the Guarantor
will furnish to the Lender a certificate from each appropriate taxing
authority, or an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Lender, in either case
stating that such payment is exempt from or not subject to Other Taxes.

SECTION 10.07 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment
of any amount payable by any of the Borrower in respect of the Obligations is
stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the
Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of
this Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor forthwith on
demand by the Lender.
