                       AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO LOAN DOCUMENTS

     THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO LOAN DOCUMENTS (this "Amendment No. 2") is entered
into as of the 13th day of January, 1998, by and between COAST BUSINESS CREDIT,
a division of Southern Pacific Bank, a California corporation, and successor to
CoastFed Business Credit Corporation, a California corporation ("Coast"), and
DISC, Inc., a California corporation, and successor by name change to Document
Imaging Systems Corporation ("Borrower").

                                    RECITALS

     A.   Coast and Borrower have entered into that certain Loan and Security
Agreement dated December 14, 1994 (the "Loan Agreement"), certain related
agreements referred to in the Loan Agreement or entered into in connection
therewith, and that certain Amendment No. 1 to Loan Documents dated as of
December 5th, 1995 (collectively, the "Loan Documents").

     B.   Coast and Borrower desire to enter into certain agreements related to
the Loan Documents.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the
covenants and agreements set forth herein and in the Loan Documents, Coast and
Borrower hereby agree as follows:

     1.   Definitions. All terms set forth herein with initial capital letters
and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to
such terms in the Loan Documents.

     2.   Extension of the Term of the Loan Documents. The termination date of
the Loan Documents is hereby extended to December 31, 1998.

     3.   Audits and Audit Fees. Borrower shall permit Coast to conduct up to
four (4) audits of Borrower per year, and Borrower shall promptly pay Coast for
such audits at the rate of 550 per person per day, not to exceed $2,200 per
audit plus out of pocket expenses.

     4.   Net Worth Covenant. Borrower will maintain a minimum net worth (as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied) of $1,000,000. The net worth reported by Borrower in its
filings made under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 shall be determinative
of compliance or noncompliance with this covenant, absent manifest error. If
Borrower at any time fails to maintain such $1,000,000 net worth, such failure
shall constitute an Event of Default.

     5.   Pre-paid Expenses and Deposits Covenant. Borrower's pre-paid expenses
and deposits (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied) shall not exceed $250,000 at any time during
the term of the Loan Document, as such term is amended hereby. If such pre-paid
expenses and deposits at any time exceed that amount, the amount of such excess
shall reduce Borrower's net worth dollar-for-dollar.

     6.   Waiver and Estoppel by Borrower. Borrower represents and warrants to
and agrees with Coast that, at the date hereof: (a) Coast is not in default
under any of the Loan Documents; (b) Borrower has suffered no damages under the
Loan Documents and has no cause of action, right of setoff or consideration, or
any other claim of any nature whatsoever against Coast or any of its affiliates
under the Loan Documents or otherwise (collectively, a "Claim"); and (c)
Borrower hereby waives and relinquishes any and all Claims.

     7.   Effectiveness of the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby agrees that,
except as expressly modified by this Amendment No. 2, each of the Loan
Documents remain in full force and effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Coast and Borrower have caused this Amendment No. 2 to
be executed by their duly authorized officers on the date first above written.
