2.1 (June 30, 1998 or such earlier date of termination being herein
called the "REVOLVER TERMINATION DATE"). Revolving Credit Loans at the
occasion of each borrowing shall be in aggregate principal amounts at
least equal to $150,000 or, if less, the remaining unused amount of
the Revolving Loan Commitment. Xxxxxx shall not be entitled to any
Revolving Credit Loan if, after giving effect to such Loan, the unpaid
amount of the then outstanding Revolving Credit Loans would exceed the
then current Borrowing Base. Prior to the Revolver Termination Date
and within the limits of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the
Borrowing Base, Xxxxxx may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving
Credit Loans. All Revolving Credit Loans shall mature and be due and
