secured by the Borrower's property, including the Borrower's property located
at the Premises (as defined below) which is leased by Data National
Corporation, the corporate parent of Borrower (the "Lessee"), pursuant to the
Lease (as defined below), and for other good and valuable consideration, the
undersigned hereby certifies and agrees for the benefit of the Lender, its
participants, successors and assigns, as follows:
1. The undersigned owns certain premises located in Jefferson

the Premises to the Lessee pursuant to a lease (the "Lease"), a true, correct
and complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
2. The Lease is in full force and effect and the Lessee is
not in default of any provision of the Lease.
3. The undersigned does not own, and hereby releases and
disclaims, any interest in any goods (whether in the nature of inventory or
equipment and specifically including any fixtures and tenant improvements)
which the Borrower or the Lessee has previously placed or installed or may
hereafter place or install upon the Premises.
4. The undersigned hereby (i) agrees to recognize the right
of possession granted to the Lender by the Borrower pursuant to that certain
Credit and Security Agreement by and between the Borrower and the Lender
dated as of _____________, 1997, as amended from time to time; (ii)
acknowledges that the Lender shall have no duty, obligation or liability
whatsoever for rent or otherwise with respect to the possession, occupancy or
use of the Premises, even if the Lender has taken possession of the Premises
or has, on a previous occasion, paid rent or performed any obligation under
any lease of the Premises; except if the Lender takes possession of or
occupies the Premises, the Lender shall pay the undersigned rent for the same
base rental rate which the Lessee would have been obligated to pay for the
period during which the Lender has possession of or occupies the Premises;
(iii) reserves in all respects the right to cancel or terminate the Lease,
for nonpayment of rent or otherwise, whether or not the Lender is in
possession of the Premises, but, notwithstanding any such cancellation or
termination, the Lender shall continue to have the right to the possession,
occupancy and use of the Premises for purposes of holding, processing,
manufacturing, selling, using, storing, liquidating, realizing upon or
otherwise disposing of the Lender's collateral, and for related and
incidental purposes, for up to 105 days from the date of notice of such
cancellation or termination, given pursuant to clause (v) of this paragraph
4; (iv) agrees to give the Lender notice of any breach of the Lease by the
Lessee or the Borrower, at the same time as the undersigned shall give
notice of such breach to the Lessee or to the Borrower, of any legal action
which the undersigned may commence to evict the Lessee or the Borrower from
the Premises or to terminate or limit the Lessee's or the Borrower's right to
use, possess or lease the Premises, promptly upon the commencement of any
such action, and of any change in the ownership of the Premises and the name
and address of each new owner of the Premises, at least 15 days prior
to any such change in ownership; and (v) agrees not to cancel the Lease
without first giving the Lender at least 15 days' prior written notice of
such cancellation, stating the grounds for cancellation or termination. All
notices to the Lender shall be deemed given three days after being sent by
first class United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Lender at
Norwest Business Credit, Inc.; Attention: Debbie Tracy; 1740 Broadway;

5. This Disclaimer and Consent shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the substantive laws (other than conflict laws)
of the State of Colorado. The parties waive any right to trial by jury in
any action or proceeding based on or pertaining to this Disclaimer and
Consent. This Disclaimer and Consent may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one instrument. No failure on the part of the Lender to
exercise, and no delay in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder
shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise of such right, power or remedy or the exercise
of any other right, power or remedy. This Disclaimer and Consent expresses
completely, exclusively and finally all the agreements, conditions and
covenants of the parties and does not need evidence (written or oral) of
prior, contemporaneous or subsequent statements or representations (express
or implied) to reflect the intentions of the parties. This Disclaimer and
Consent may not be supplemented or modified except in writing. This
Disclaimer and Consent inures to the benefit of the Lender and binds the
undersigned, and their respective successors and assigns. This does not
imply a commitment to lend and shall be binding as long as any obligations of
the Borrower to the Lender remain outstanding or are subject to recoupment.
