Date, (i) the Rate Differential is greater than zero, the amount due on such
Note Payment Date shall be increased by such Rate Differential, and (ii) the

                  information and will give Maker notice of such new "Actual
                  Index."

         (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Holder may declare the entire outstanding
balance of the Principal, together with all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon,
immediately due and payable without notice or demand which amounts shall,
together with all other sums due hereunder, accrue interest from such
acceleration until the date of actual payment at the Default Rate (provided,
however, that should there occur an Event of Default, and if a voluntary or
involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code is filed by or
against Maker while such default remains uncured, the entire outstanding balance
of the Principal automatically shall be accelerated and due and payable with
interest thereon at the Default Rate), and Holder may exercise any and all of
its remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and under Applicable Law.
The remedies of Holder provided herein, in the Security Agreement and under
Applicable Law shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singly,
successively or concurrently at the sole discretion of Holder and may be
exercised as often as occasion therefor shall occur. The failure to exercise, or
any delay in the exercise of, any right or remedy shall in no event be
construed as a waiver, release or exhaustion of any such remedies.

(if any), and late payment charges (if any), Maker shall pay Holder on demand,
and Holder shall be entitled to collect all costs and expenses of collection,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in
connection with enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents, the protection or realization of the Collateral or in
connection with Holder's collection efforts, or in connection with any
bankruptcy or other judicial proceeding, whether or not suit on this Note or any
foreclosure proceeding is filed. All such costs and expenses shall be payable on
demand and, until paid, shall be Secured Obligations secured by the security
interest granted under the Security Agreement and all other collateral, if any,
held by Holder as security for Maker's obligations under this Note.

until the date repaid by Borrower to KCL, at the Default Rate, shall be payable
by Borrower to KCL upon demand. No such performance by KCL shall be deemed a

without the application or consent of Borrower or such Guarantor, respectively;

bankruptcy, insolvency or similar legislation; (5) Borrower or any Guarantor
violates or fails to perform any provision of either the Loan Documents or any
other loan, lease or credit agreement or any acquisition or purchase agreement
with KCL or any other party; (6) Borrower violates or fails to perform any
covenant or representation made by Borrower in the Loan Documents; (7) any
representation or warranty made herein or in any of the Loan Documents,
certificates, financial statements or other statements furnished to KCL (or
KCL's parent, subsidiaries or affiliates) shall prove to be false or misleading
in any material respect as of the date on which the same was made; (8) Borrower
makes a bulk transfer of furniture, fixtures or other equipment or inventory;
(9) there is a material adverse change in Borrower's or any Guarantor's
financial condition; (10) Borrower merges or consolidates with any other

notice to Borrower or any Guarantor. The obligations and liabilities accelerated
thereby shall bear interest (both before and after any judgment) until paid in
full at the Default Rate. Should there occur a Default and if a voluntary or
involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code is filed by or
against Borrower while such Default remains uncured, the Secured Obligations
automatically shall be accelerated and due and payable and interest thereon at
the Default Rate automatically shall apply as of the date of the first
occurrence of the Default, without any notice, demand or action of any type on
the part of KCL (including any action evidencing the acceleration or imposition
of the Default Rate). The fact that KCL has, prior to the filing of the
voluntary or involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code, acted
in a manner which is inconsistent with the acceleration and imposition of the
Default Rate shall not constitute a waiver of this provision or estop KCL from
asserting or enforcing KCL's rights hereunder.

                  (2) Furthermore, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
KCL shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the
other Loan Documents or by law, the rights and remedies of a secured party under

and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the
affected Collateral), and further KCL may do any one or more of the following
as KCL in its sole discretion may elect, with or without judicial process or
the aid and assistance of others; (a) enter and remain on any premises on which
any of the Equipment may be located and, without resistance or interference by

possession, take possession of the Equipment, (b) prepare for sale and sell or
otherwise dispose of any Equipment on any such premises, (c) require the

credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as KCL deems advisable,
in its sole discretion, or (f) lease all or any portion of the Equipment on such
terms and conditions as KCL in its sole discretion may determine. In addition to
all other sums due KCL hereunder, the Borrower shall pay KCL all reasonable

of Secured Obligations, or in the prosecution or defense of any action or
proceeding by or against KCL or the Borrower concerning any matter arising out
of or connected with the Loan Documents, the Collateral or the Secured
Obligations, including without limitation any of the foregoing arising in,

                  (3) BORROWER'S WAIVERS REGARDING DISPOSITION OF THE EQUIPMENT.
IF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY DEFENSES, RIGHTS,
OFFSETS OR CLAIMS AGAINST KCL ARISING OUT OF THE REPOSSESSION, RETENTION, SALE,
MANNER OR METHOD OF SALE OR DISPOSITION OF ANY ITEMS OF EQUIPMENT. THE BORROWER
AGREES THAT ANY REQUIREMENT OF REASONABLE NOTICE SHALL BE MET IF SUCH NOTICE IS
PERSONALLY SERVED ON OR MAILED, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWER IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE NOTICE PROVISIONS HEREOF AT LEAST 10 DAYS BEFORE THE TIME OF SALE OR

EXCLUSIVE OF, BUT EACH SHALL BE CUMULATIVE AND IN ADDITION TO, ANY OTHER RIGHT
OR REMEDY REFERRED TO HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE AVAILABLE TO KCL OR ITS ASSIGNS AT
LAW OR IN EQUITY, AND MAY BE PURSUED SINGLY, SUCCESSIVELY OR CONCURRENTLY AT THE
SOLE DISCRETION OF LENDER AND MAY BE EXERCISED AS OFTEN AS OCCASION THEREFOR
SHALL OCCUR. THE FAILURE TO EXERCISE, OR ANY DELAY IN THE EXERCISE OF, ANY RIGHT
OR REMEDY SHALL IN NO EVENT BE CONSTRUED AS A WAIVER, RELEASE OR EXHAUSTION OF
ANY SUCH REMEDIES. NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WAIVER BY KCL OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT
SHALL CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF ANY OTHER EVENT OF DEFAULT OR A WAIVER OF ANY OF
KCL'S RIGHTS UPON THE REOCCURRENCE OF ANY SUCH EVENT OF DEFAULT.

         (c) The Borrower hereby authorizes KCL, upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of any Event of Default hereunder, at KCL's option to adjust,
compromise and settle any losses under any insurance afforded, and the Borrower
does hereby irrevocably constitute KCL and each of its designees, as its
attorneys-in-fact, with full power and authority, upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of any Event of Default hereunder, to effect such adjustment,
compromise and/or settlement and to endorse any drafts drawn by an insurer of
the Equipment or any part thereof and to do everything necessary to carry out
such purposes and to receive and receipt for any unearned premiums due under
policies of such insurance; but unless or until KCL elects to adjust, compromise
or settle losses as aforesaid, such insurance proceeds shall be subject to the
lien and security interest of KCL hereunder.

         (d) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of
Default hereunder, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any
proceeds of the Collateral, when received by KCL in cash or its equivalent, will
be applied first to costs of collection and, thereafter, in reduction of the
Secured Obligations in such order and manner as KCL may direct in its sole
discretion, and the Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the
application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and agrees that KCL
shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply any and all such payments
and proceeds in KCL's sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary
upon any of its books and records. The Borrower shall remain liable to KCL for
any deficiency. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction
of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Borrower or to whomsoever a
court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

         (e) To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or
hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral, or by a guarantee,
endorsement or property of any other person, then KCL also shall have the right
to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the
occurrence of a default hereunder, and KCL shall have the right, in its sole
discretion, to determine which rights, liens, security interests or remedies KCL
shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate or modify, without in any way
affecting the Secured Obligations or any of KCL's rights under this Agreement.

affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
