2.1 REVOLVING NOTE. Greystone has executed and delivered to Bank a
Note evidencing a ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR ($1,500,000.00)
revolving loan payable to Bank ("Revolving Note"). A full, true and correct copy
of the Revolving Note is attached as Exhibit "1". The Revolving Note shall bear
interest on the advanced and unpaid principal sums at the Floating Interest Rate
as set out in such note and shall be based upon the actual number of days
elapsed under a 360-day calendar year. The Revolving Note will be payable in
full January 5, 2006.
2.1.1 BORROWING BASE. Greystone shall provide a
Borrowing Base Certificate to Bank on at least a monthly basis and
Bank shall have no obligation to advance on the Revolving Note
unless Greystone has submitted to Bank a Borrowing Base Certificate
no more than thirty-one (31) days old ("Current
8
Borrowing Base"). Notwithstanding any other term in the Loan
Agreement, Bank will only make advances on the Revolving Note as
requested by Greystone from time to time upon verification by
Greystone on a form satisfactory to the Bank that the advance when
requested, when added to the aggregate of all principal sums already

following Borrowing Base, to wit:
(i) A sum equal to eighty percent (80%) of the aggregate
of Greystone's Qualified Accounts Receivable as defined herein; and
(ii) A sum equal to fifty percent (50%) of Greystone's
Qualified Inventory.
(collectively "Borrowing Base").
In calculating the Borrowing Base, the amount advanced on the
Revolving Note shall be compared to the Borrowing Base to determine
what is available, if anything, for advance on the Revolving Note.
The Bank Advance Amount shall be the aggregate amount of the
Borrowing Base less the principal balance advanced and outstanding
("Bank Advance Amount"). To the extent applicable and to the extent
that Greystone maintains its records in this fashion, the Borrowing
Base shall use the daily, weekly or monthly average aggregate
balances for Qualified Accounts Receivable and Qualified Inventory

the Revolving Note in excess of the Borrowing Base or if, at any
time, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Note
shall exceed or be greater than the Borrowing Base, Greystone shall
immediately repay the amounts advanced in excess of the Borrowing
Base so that the sums advanced and outstanding on the Revolving Note
do not at any time exceed the Borrowing Base, and in any event,
shall repay such amounts within seven (7) business days that
Greystone becomes aware of the deficiency, or of receipt of a notice
from the Bank of such deficiency, in an amount sufficient to reduce
the unpaid principal balance outstanding on the Revolving Note to an
amount equal to or less than the applicable Borrowing Base.
2.1.3 ADVANCES ON THE REVOLVING NOTE. Notwithstanding
the amount stated as the aggregate face amount of the Revolving
Note, the actual amount available for advance shall be the aggregate
face amount of the Revolving Note less the sum of all advances made
on account thereof, plus all principal payments actually received by
Bank in collected funds subject to the restrictions set out in P. P.
2.1.1 and 2.1.2, inclusive. The actual principal amount due from
Greystone to the Bank under the Revolving Note at any one time on
account of the Revolving Note will be the sum of all advances made
on account thereof, less all principal
9
payments actually received by Bank in collected funds. Advances on
the Revolving Note will be made as requested, but the aggregate
advances under the terms of the Revolving Note may not at any one
time exceed the Bank Advance Amount. The Bank will have no
obligation to advance on the Revolving Note unless the conditions
established in P. P. 2.1.1, 2.1.2, and 4.0-4.8, ET SEQ., have been
satisfied or after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event
which under this Agreement may constitute an Event of Default, which

selectively and successively enforce the Bank's rights under the Loan Documents
or the instruments securing payment of the Notes or GLOG Note, such action will

Note, together with all interest, fees and other Bank's expenses including, but
not limited to, a reasonable attorneys' fee.

Borrowers hereunder is due and payable and is unpaid in whole or in part, the

granted, the rights and remedies under the Oklahoma Uniform Commercial Code (the

rights and remedies are asserted, including the right to take possession of the
Collateral, and for that purpose, the Bank may, so far as the Borrowers can give
authority therefor, enter upon the premises where the Collateral may be located
and remove the same therefrom. Bank may further require Borrowers to assemble
the Collateral and make it available to Bank at a place mutually convenient to
Bank and Borrowers. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline
speedily in value, or is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market, the
Bank shall give Borrowers at least ten (10) days prior written notice which
shall be deemed to be a reasonable notice under the Code before the time after
which any public or private sale or other intended disposition is to be made,
and any such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable.
9.6 NON-WAIVER OF RIGHTS. No delay or omission to exercise any
right, power or remedy accruing to Bank upon any breach or default of Borrowers
under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or other agreements or
instrument executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall impair any
such right, power or remedy of Bank, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of
any such breach or default or any acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach
or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or
default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default heretofore occurring.
Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of
the Bank, or any breach or default or conditions in the making of any loan under
this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of the Bank of any condition or
provision of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant
hereto or in connection herewith, must be in writing signed by the Bank and
shall be effective only to the extent of the provisions of such writing
specifically set forth. All other remedies, either under this Agreement or by
law otherwise afforded the Bank, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
Notwithstanding any term contained herein, the occurrence of an
Event of Default by GLOG or Greystone shall not constitute an Event of Default
as to the other unless an Event of Default has occurred as to the other.
10.0 MISCELLANEOUS.
