[LOGO BANK OF AMERICA] Business Loan Agreement

This Agreement dated as of December 1, 1998 is between Bank of America National
Trust and Savings Association (the "Bank") and Futech Interactive Products, Inc.
(the "Borrower").

1. AMOUNT AND TERMS.

1.1 LINE OF CREDIT AMOUNT. During the availability period described below, the
Bank will provide a line of credit to the Borrower. The amount of the line of
credit (the "Commitment") is Seven Million and No/100 Dollars ($7,000,000.00).

This is a revolving line of credit with a within line facility for letters of
credit. During the availability period, the Borrower may repay principal amounts
and reborrow them.

The Borrower agrees not to permit the outstanding principal balance of the line
of credit plus the outstanding amounts of any letters of credit, including
amounts drawn on letters of credit and not yet reimbursed, to exceed the
Commitment.

1.2 AVAILABILITY. The line of credit is available between the date of this
Agreement and December 1, 2000 (the "Expiration Date") unless the Borrower is in
default.

1.3 INTEREST RATE.
The interest rate is the Reference Rate plus 1.00 percentage point(s).

The Reference Rate is the rate of interest publicly announced from time to time
by the Bank in San Francisco, California, as its Reference Rate. The Reference
Rate is set by the Bank based on various factors, including the Bank's costs and
desired return, general economic conditions and other factors, and is used as a
reference point for pricing some loans. The Bank may price loans to its
customers at, above or below the Reference Rate. Any change in the Reference
Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the
public announcement of a change in the Bank's Reference Rate.

1.4 REPAYMENT.

(a) The Borrower will pay interest on January 1, 1999 and on the first day of
each month thereafter until payment in full of any principal outstanding under
this line of credit. (b) The Borrower will repay in full all principal and any
unpaid interest or other charges outstanding under this line of credit no later
than the Expiration Date

1.5 LETTERS OF CREDIT. This line of credit may be used for financing standby
letters or commercial letters of credit with a maximum maturity of December 1,
2000.

The amount of letters of credit outstanding at any one time (including amounts
drawn on letters of credit and not yet reimbursed) may not exceed One Million
and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for standby and commercial letters of credit.

The Borrower agrees: (a) any sum drawn under a letter of credit may, at the
option of the Bank, be added to the principal amount outstanding under this
Agreement. The amount will bear interest and be due as described elsewhere in
this Agreement. (b) if there is a default under this Agreement, to immediately
prepay and make the Bank whole for any outstanding letters of credit. (c) the
issuance of any letter of credit and any amendment to a letter of credit is
subject to the Bank's written approval and must be in form and content
satisfactory to the Bank and in favor of a beneficiary acceptable to the Bank.
(d) to sign the Bank's form Application and Agreement for Commercial Letter of
Credit or Application and Agreement for Standby Letter of Credit. (e) to pay any
issuance and/or other fees that the Bank notifies the Borrower will be charged
for issuing and processing letters of credit for the Borrower. (f) to allow the
Bank to automatically charge its checking account for applicable fees,
discounts, and other charges.

2. FEES AND EXPENSES.

2.1 (a) LOAN FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay a Seventy Thousand and No/100
Dollar ($70,000.00) fee due upon execution of this Agreement.

(b) UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay a fee on any difference
between the Commitment and the amount of credit it actually uses, determined by
the weighted average loan balance maintained during the specified period. The
fee will be calculated at 1/8% per year.

This fee is due on February 28, 1999 and on the last day of each May, August,
November, and February until the expiration of the availability period.

2.2 REIMBURSEMENT COST. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank for any
expenses it incurs in the preparation of this Agreement and any agreement or
instrument required by this Agreement. Expenses include, but are not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees, including any allocated costs of the Bank's in-house
counsel.

3. DISBURSEMENTS, PAYMENTS AND COSTS

3.1 TELEPHONE AND TELEFAX AUTHORIZATION. (a) The Bank may honor telephone or
telefax instructions for advances or repayments or the issuance of letters of
credit given by any one of the individual signer(s) of this Agreement or a
person or persons authorized in writing by any one of the signer(s) of this
Agreement. (b) Advances will be deposited in and repayments will be withdrawn
from the Borrower's account number _____________________, or such other of the
Borrower's accounts with the Bank as designated in writing by the Borrower. (c)
The Borrower indemnifies and excuses the Bank (including its officers,
employees, and agents) from all liability, loss, and costs in connection with
any act resulting from telephone instructions it reasonably believes are made by
any individual authorized by the Borrower to give such instructions. This
indemnity and excuse will survive this Agreement's termination.

3.2 INTEREST CALCULATION. All interest and fees, if any, will be computed on the
basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed. This results in
more interest or a higher fee than if a 365-day year is used,

3.3 INTEREST ON LATE PAYMENTS. At the Bank's sole option in each instance, any
amount not paid when due under this Agreement (including interest) shall bear
interest from the due date at the Reference Rate plus 5.00 percentage points.
This may result in compounding of interest.

3.4 DEFAULT RATE. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any default
under this Agreement, advances under this Agreement will at the option of the
Bank bear interest at a rate per annum which is 5.00 percentage points higher
than the rate of interest otherwise provided under this Agreement. This will not
constitute a waiver of any default.

4. CONDITIONS The Bank must receive the following items, in form and content
acceptable to the Bank, before it is required to extend any credit to the
Borrower under this Agreement.

4.1 AUTHORIZATIONS. Evidence that the execution, delivery and performance by the

required under this Agreement have been duly authorized.

4.2 GUARANTIES. Guaranties signed by F. Keith Withycombe and Patricia A.
Withycombe and Vincent W. Goett and Melissa Turner Goett on the Bank's standard
form in an amount as may be acceptable, from time to time, to the Bank.

until the Bank is repaid in full, the Borrower makes the following
representations and warranties. Each request for an extension of credit
constitutes a renewed representation. (a) The Borrower is a corporation duly

Agreement, and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, are within the
Borrower's powers, have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with any of

(k) on the basis of a comprehensive review and assessment of Borrower's systems
and equipment and inquiry made of Borrower's material suppliers, vendors and
customers Borrower's management is of the view that the "Year 2000 problem"
(that is, the inability of computers, as well as embedded microchips in
non-computing devices, to perform properly date-sensitive functions with respect
to certain dates prior to and after December 31, 1999), including costs of
remediation, will not result in a material adverse change in the operations,
business properties, condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. Borrower
has developed feasible contingency plans to adequately ensure uninterrupted and
unimpaired business operation in the event of failure of its own or a third
party's systems or equipment due to the Year 2000 problem, including those of

interruption in its communications and delivery infrastructure.

8.4 ARBITRATION. (a) Unless expressly prohibited by law, any controversy or
claim between or among the parties, including but not limited to those arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating
hereto or delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising

arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United
States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law
provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator(s) shall give effect to statutes
of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an
issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a
provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of
any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. (b) No
provision of this paragraph shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement
to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to foreclose against or sell any
real or personal property collateral or security, or to obtain provisional or
ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or
during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a
remedy does not waive the right of either party to resort to arbitration. At the
Bank's option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished
either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or by judicial
foreclosure of the deed of trust or mortgage.

8.5 SEVERABILITY; WAIVERS. If any part of this Agreement is not enforceable, the
rest of the Agreement may be enforced. The Bank retains all rights, even if it
makes a loan after default. If the Bank waives a default, it may enforce a later
default. Any consent or waiver under this Agreement must be in writing.

8.6 ADMINISTRATION COSTS. The Borrower shall pay the Bank for all reasonable
costs incurred by the Bank in connection with administering this Agreement.

8.7 ATTORNEYS' FEES. The Borrower shall reimburse the Bank for any reasonable
costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the Bank in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement and
any other documents executed in connection with this Agreement, and including
any amendment, waiver, "workout" or restructuring under this Agreement. In the
event of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing party is entitled
to recover costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the
lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the court or arbitrator. As
used in this paragraph, "attorneys' fees" includes the allocated costs of
in-house counsel.

8.8 ONE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and any related security or other agreements
required by this Agreement, collectively: (a) represent the sum of the
understandings and agreements between the Bank and the Borrower concerning this
credit, and (b) replace any prior oral or written agreements between the Bank
and the Borrower concerning this credit; and (c) are intended by the Bank and
the Borrower as the final, complete and exclusive statement of the terms agreed
to by them. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other
agreements required by this Agreement, this Agreement will prevail.

8.9 USURY LAWS. This paragraph covers the transactions described in this
Agreement and any other agreements with the Bank or its affiliates executed in
connection with this Agreement, to the extent they are subject to the Arizona
usury laws (the "Transactions"). The Borrower understands and believes that the
Transactions comply with the Arizona usury laws. However, if any interest or
other charges paid or payable in connection with the Transactions are ever
determined to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law, the Borrower agrees
that:

(a) the amount of interest or other charges payable by the Borrower
pursuant to the Transactions shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permitted by law; and

(b) any excess amount previously collected from the Borrower in connection
with the Transactions which exceeded the maximum amount permitted by
law will be credited against the then outstanding principal balance. If
the outstanding principal balance has been repaid in full, the excess
amount paid will be refunded to the Borrower.

6
7
All fees, charges, goods, things in action or any other sums or things of value,
other than interest at the interest rate described in this Agreement, paid or
payable by the Borrower (collectively the "Additional Sums"), that may be deemed
to be interest with respect to the Transactions, shall, for the purpose of any
laws of the State of Arizona that may limit the maximum amount of interest to be
charged with respect to the Transactions, be payable by Borrower as, and shall
be deemed to be, additional interest. For such purposes only, the agreed upon
and "contracted for rate of interest" of the Transactions shall be deemed to be
increased by the rate of interest resulting from the Additional Sums.

This Agreement is executed as of the date stated at the top of the first page.

[LOGO BANK OF AMERICA] CONTINUING GUARANTY

Borrowers: Futech Interactive Products, Inc.
Guarantors: Vincent W. Goett and
Melissa Turner Goett

(1) For valuable consideration, the undersigned ("Guarantors") jointly and
severally unconditionally guarantee and promise to pay to Bank of
America National Trust and Savings Association and any other subsidiary
or affiliate of BankAmerica Corporation which has extended or may
hereafter extend credit to Borrowers (each a "Bank"), or order, on
demand, in lawful money of the United States, any and all indebtedness
of Futech Interactive Products, Inc. ("Borrowers") to Bank. The word
"indebtedness" is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and
includes any and all advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of
Borrowers or any one or more of them, heretofore, now, or hereafter
made, incurred or created, whether voluntary or involuntary and however
arising, whether direct or acquired by Bank by assignment or
succession, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated
or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, and whether Borrowers may
be liable individually or jointly with others, or whether recovery upon
such indebtedness may be or hereafter become barred by any statute of
limitations, or whether such indebtedness may be or hereafter become
otherwise unenforceable.

(2) The liability of Guarantors under this Guaranty (exclusive of liability
under any other guaranties executed by Guarantors) shall not exceed at
any one time the total of (a) Seven Million and No/100 Dollars
($7,000,000.00), for the principal amount of the indebtedness and (b)
all interest, fees, and other costs and expenses relating to or arising
out of the indebtedness or such part of the indebtedness as shall not
exceed the foregoing limitation. Bank may permit the indebtedness of
Borrowers to exceed Guarantors' liability, and may apply any amounts
received from any source, other than from Guarantors, to the
unguaranteed portion of Borrowers' indebtedness. This is a Continuing
Guaranty relating to any indebtedness, including that arising under
successive transactions which shall either continue the indebtedness or
from time to time renew it after it has been satisfied. Any payment by
Guarantors shall not reduce their maximum obligation hereunder, unless
written notice to that effect be actually received by Bank at or prior
to the time of such payment.

(3) The obligations hereunder are joint and several, and independent of the
obligations of Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be
brought and prosecuted against Guarantors whether action is brought
against Borrowers or whether Borrowers be joined in any such action or
actions and regardless of whether a trustee's sale is held under any
deed of trust securing the indebtedness or regardless of whether a
judicial foreclosure sale is held if any deed of trust securing the
indebtedness is judicially foreclosed as a mortgage. Guarantors waive
the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting their liability
hereunder.

(4) Guarantors authorize Bank, without notice or demand and without
affecting their liability hereunder, from time to time, either before
or after revocation hereof, to (a) renew, compromise, extend,
accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise
change the terms of the indebtedness or any part thereof, including
increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (b) receive and
hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the indebtedness
guaranteed, and exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect,
sell, or otherwise dispose of any such security; (c) apply such
security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Bank in its
discretion may determine, except to the extent specifically prohibited
by law; and (d) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers
or guarantors.

(5) Guarantors waive any right to require Bank to (a) proceed against
Borrowers; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from
Borrowers; or (c) pursue any other remedy in Bank's power whatsoever.
Guarantors waive any defense arising by reason of any disability or
other defense of Borrowers, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever
of the liability of Borrowers, or any claim that Guarantors'
obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of Borrowers.
Guarantors waive any benefit of the provisions of Arizona Revised
Statutes Sections 12-1641 and 12-1642 et seq., and Rule 17(f) of the
Arizona Rules of Civil Procedures, which set forth certain rights and
obligations among guarantors, debtors and creditors, to the extent
applicable. Guarantors waive any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnification, and contribution (contractual,

1
14
any or otherwise), including without limitation, any claim or right of
subrogation under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the U.S. Code) or any
successor statute, arising from the existence or performance of this Guaranty
and Guarantors waive any fight to enforce any remedy which Bank now has or may
hereafter have against Borrowers, and waive any benefit of, and any right to
participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Bank. Bank may foreclose,
either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of
trust securing the indebtedness, and, even though the foreclosure may destroy or
diminish Guarantors' rights against Borrowers, Guarantors shall be liable to
Bank for any part of the indebtedness remaining unpaid after the foreclosure.
Guarantors waive any benefit of any statutory provision limiting the right of
Bank to recover a deficiency judgment, or to otherwise proceed, against any
person or entry obligated for payment of the indebtedness, after any judicial
foreclosure sale or trustee's sale of any collateral securing the indebtedness
including, without limitation, the benefits, if any, of Arizona Revised Statutes
Section 33-814, except to the extent otherwise required by law. Guarantors waive
any homestead or exemption rights. Guarantors waive all presentments, demands
for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest,
notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the
existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness.

(6) Guarantors acknowledge and agree that they shall have the sole
responsibility for obtaining from Borrowers such information concerning
Borrowers' financial conditions or business operations as Guarantors
may require, and that Bank has no duty at any time to disclose to
Guarantors any information relating to the business operations or
financial conditions of Borrowers.

(7) In addition to Bank's rights of setoff, to secure all of Guarantors'
obligations hereunder, Guarantors assign and grant to Bank a security
interest in all moneys, securities and other property of Guarantors now
or hereafter in the possession of Bank, and all deposit accounts of
Guarantors maintained with Bank, and all proceeds thereof. Upon default
or breach of any of Guarantors' obligations to Bank, Bank may apply any
deposit account to reduce the indebtedness, and may foreclose any
collateral as provided in the Uniform Commercial Code and in any
security agreements between Bank and Guarantors.

(8) Any obligations of Borrowers to Guarantors, now or hereafter existing,
including but not limited to any obligations to Guarantors as subrogees
of Bank or resulting from Guarantors' performance under this Guaranty,
are hereby subordinated to the indebtedness. Such obligations of
Borrowers to Guarantors if Bank so requests shall be enforced and
performance received by Guarantors as trustees for Bank and the
proceeds thereof shall be paid over to Bank on account of the
indebtedness of Borrowers to Bank, but without reducing or affecting in
any manner the liability of Guarantors under the provisions of this
Guaranty.

(9) This Guaranty may be revoked at any time by Guarantors in respect to
future transactions, unless there is a continuing consideration as to
such transactions which Guarantors do not renounce. Such revocation
shall be effective upon actual receipt by Bank at the address shown
below of written notice of revocation. Revocation shall not affect any
of Guarantors' obligations or Bank's rights with respect to
transactions which precede Bank's receipt of such notice, regardless of
whether or not the indebtedness related to such transactions, before or
after revocation, has been renewed, compromised, extended, accelerated,
or otherwise changed as to any of its terms, including time for payment
or increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon, and regardless
of any other act or omission of Bank authorized hereunder. Revocation
by any one or more of Guarantors shall not affect any obligations of
any nonrevoking Guarantors. If this Guaranty is revoked, returned, or
canceled, and subsequently any payment or transfer of any interest in
property by Borrowers to Bank is rescinded or must be returned by Bank
to Borrowers, this Guaranty shall be reinstated with respect to any
such payment or transfer, regardless of any such prior revocation,
return, or cancellation.

(10) Where any one or more of Borrowers are corporations or partnerships it
is not necessary for Bank to inquire into the powers of Borrowers or of
the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act
on their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon
the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

(11) Bank may, without notice to Guarantors and without affecting
Guarantors' obligations hereunder, assign the indebtedness and this
Guaranty, in whole or in part. Guarantors agree that Bank may disclose
to any prospective purchaser and any purchaser of all or part of the
indebtedness any and all information in Bank's possession concerning
Guarantors, this Guaranty and any security for this Guaranty.

(12) Guarantors agree to pay all attorneys' fees, the allocated costs of
Bank's in-house counsel, and all other costs

2
15
and expenses which may be incurred by Bank in the enforcement of this Guaranty,
including without limitation all costs and necessary disbursements in any legal
action or arbitration proceeding.

(13) Any married person who signs this Guaranty hereby expressly agrees that
recourse may be had against such person's separate property and
community property to the extent permitted by law for all obligations
under this Guaranty.

(14) Where there is but a single Borrower, or where a single Guarantor
executes this Guaranty, then all words used herein in the plural shall
be deemed to have been used in the singular where the context and
construction so require; and when there is more than one Borrower named
herein, or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor,
the words "Borrowers" and "Guarantors" respectively shall mean all and
any one or more of them.

(15) This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed according to the laws
of the State of Arizona, to the jurisdiction of which the parties
hereto submit.

(16) (a) Any controversy or claim between or among the parties, including
but not limited to those arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or
any agreements or instruments relating hereto or delivered in
connection herewith and any claim based on or arising from an alleged
tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by arbitration.
The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States
Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law
provision in this Guaranty, and under the Commercial Rules of the
American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator(s) shall give
effect to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any
controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be
determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the arbitration award
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and
maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a
provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the
right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy
or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for
judicial relief.

(b) No provision of this paragraph shall limit the right of any party
to this Guaranty to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to
foreclose against or sell any real or personal property collateral or
security, or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court
of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any
arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not
waive the right of either party to resort to arbitration. At Bank's
option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be
accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of
trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.
