Manhattan Bank and Trust Company, N.A. ("Subordinated Debt Trustee"), not
                                         -------------------------
individually but solely as trustee for the Convertible Subordinated Debt
Purchasers (the Senior Secured Debt Purchasers, the Senior Debt Trustee and the
Subordinated Debt Trustee, together with any successors and assigns, are
individually referred to herein as a "Secured Party" and collectively referred
                                      -------------
to herein as the "Secured Parties"), with respect to the following facts:
                  ---------------

                                    RECITALS:

         A. Pursuant to that certain Master Recapitalization Agreement dated as
of March 29, 2001 (as amended, the "Recapitalization Agreement"), the Grantor
                                    --------------------------
sold to the Senior Secured Debt Purchasers $16,200,000 in aggregate principal
amount of 12% Senior Secured Notes originally due April 30, 2002 (the "Series A
                                                                       --------
Senior Secured Debt") and pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated
- -------------------
Collateral Agency and Security Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2001, by and
between the Grantor and the Collateral Agent (the "Existing Security
                                                   -----------------
Agreement"), the Grantor has granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of
- ---------
the Secured Parties certain rights and interests in the collateral referred to
therein.

         B. Concurrently herewith, the Grantor is entering into a Standstill,
Forbearance and Amendment Agreement, dated as of February 19, 2002 (the
"Standstill Agreement"), with each of the Senior Secured Debt Purchasers and a
 --------------------
Restructuring Agreement, dated as of February 19, 2002 (the "Restructuring
                                                             -------------
Agreement"), with the Stephen Adams Living Trust (the "Adams Trust"), as sole
- ---------                                              -----------
holder of the Convertible Subordinated Debt, and Southern Pacific Bank. The
Standstill Agreement and the Restructuring Agreement will, among other things,
resolve certain disputes between the Grantor and certain of the Senior Secured
Debt Purchasers and the holder of the Convertible Subordinated Debt regarding
the Grantor's debt to such parties and require, among other things, that an
additional series of the Series A Senior Secured Debt be issued to the Adams
Trust in aggregate principal amount of $6,382,877 (the "Series B Senior Secured
                                                        -----------------------
Debt") in exchange for $6,000,000 in an aggregate principal amount of the
- ----
Convertible Subordinated Debt and additional principal amounts of Convertible
Subordinated Debt issuable in payment of 50% of the interest payable on January
30, 2002 in respect of the Convertible Subordinated Debt. It is also a condition
precedent to the effectiveness of the Standstill Agreement that the Existing
Security Agreement be amended to provide that the issuance of the Series B
Secured Debt is included in the obligations secured thereby.



         C. The Grantor desires to amend certain provisions of the Existing
Security Agreement and the Collateral Agent is willing to do so.

agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the
