   Bank shall lend to Borrower an amount equal to the Borrowing Base; provided,

   Borrower under this Section 2.1 whenever the Daily Balance exceeds, at any
   time, either the Borrowing Base or the sum of ONE MILLION AND NO/100
                                                 ----------------------

   less than N/A per month. All interest payable by Borrower under the Credit,

   Agreement.

   Overadvance in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof, all Overadvances shall
   bear additional interest on the amount thereof at a rate equal to N/A
                                                                     ---

   the right to terminate this Agreement at any time without notice. On the date

   Collateral arising thereafter, and Borrower shall continue to perform all of
   its Obligations.

      3.2 After termination and when Bank has received payment in full of
   Borrower's obligations to Bank, Bank shall reassign to Borrower all
   Collateral held by Bank, and shall execute a termination of all security
   agreements and security interests given by Borrower to Bank, upon the

     authorized by Borrower:

          due and payable to the Bank;

          b.  Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of
          Borrower under this Agreement, or any other agreement between Borrower
          and Bank;

          c.  Terminate this Agreement as to any future liability or obligation
          of Bank, but without affecting Bank's rights and security interests in
          the Collateral, and the Obligations of the Borrower to Bank.

          d.  Without notice to or demand upon Borrower or any guarantor, make
          such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or
          reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral.
          Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires and to
          make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower
          authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located,
          take and maintain possession of the Collateral and the premises (at no
          charge to Bank), or any part thereof, and to pay, purchase, contest or
          compromise any encumbrance, charge or lien which in the opinion of
          Bank appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to
          pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith;

          e.  Without limiting Bank's rights under any security interest, Bank
          is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge,
          Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name,
          trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any
          property of a similar nature as it pertains to the Collateral, in
          completing production of, advertising for sale and selling any
          Collateral and Borrower's rights under all license and all franchise
          agreement shall inure to Bank's benefit, and Bank shall have the right
          and power to enter into sublicense agreements with respect to all such
          rights with third parties on terms acceptable to Bank;

          f.  Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare
          for sale, advertise for sales and sell (in the manner provided for
          herein) the inventory;

          g.  Sell or dispose the Collateral at either a public or private sale,
          or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or
          on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower's
          premises) as is commercially reasonable in the opinion of Bank. It is
          not necessary that the Collateral be present at any such sale;

          h.  Bank shall give notice of the disposition of the Collateral as
          follows:

                                      12.

                                                LOAN & SECURITY AGREEMENT
                                                 (Accounts & Inventory)

                (1)  Bank shall give the Borrower and each holder of a security
                interest in the Collateral who has filed with Bank a written
                request for notice, a notice in writing of the time and place of
                public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some
                disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the
                Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other
                disposition is to be made:

                (2)  The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage
                prepaid, to Borrower's address appearing in this Agreement, at
                least five (5) calendar days before the date fixed for the sale,
                or at least five (5) calendar days before the date on or after
                which the private sale or other disposition is to be made,
                unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline
                speedily in value. Notice to persons other than Borrower
                claiming an interest in the Collateral shall be sent to such
                addresses as they have furnished to Bank;

                (3)  If the sale is to be a public sale, Bank shall also give
                notice of the time and place by publishing a notice one time at
                least five (5) calendar days before the date of the sale in a
                newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the sale
                is to be held; and

                (4)  Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale.

          i.  Borrower shall pay all Bank Expenses incurred in connection with
          Bank's enforcement and exercise of any of its rights and remedies as
          herein provided, whether or not suit is commenced by Bank;

          j.  Any deficiency which exists after disposition of the Collateral as
          provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. Any excess will
          be returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third
          parties, to Borrower by Bank or, in Bank's discretion, to any party
          who Bank believes, in good faith, is entitled to the excess; and

          k.  Without constituting a retention of Collateral in satisfaction of
          an obligation within the meaning of 9505 of the Uniform Commercial
          Code or an action under California Code of Civil Procedure 726, apply
          any and all amounts maintained by Borrower as deposit accounts (as
          that term is defined under 8105 of the Uniform Commercial Code) or
          other accounts that Borrower maintains with Bank against the
          Obligations.

          8.2   Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement and all other
     agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and
     remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided by law or in equity. No
     exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no
     waiver by Bank of any default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a
     continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election or
     acquiescence by Bank.

9.   TAXES AND EXPENSES REGARDING BORROWER'S PROPERTY.
     ------------------------------------------------

If Borrower fails to pay promptly when due to another person or entity, monies
which Borrower is required to pay by reason of any provision in the Agreement,
Bank may, but need not, pay the same and charge Borrower's account therefor, and
Borrower shall promptly reimburse Bank.  All such sums shall become additional
indebtedness owing to Bank, shall bear interest at the rate hereinabove
provided, and shall be secured by all Collateral. Any payments made by Bank
shall not constitute (i) an agreement by it to make similar payments in the
future; or (ii) a waiver by Bank of any default under this Agreement. Bank need
not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, security
interest, encumbrance or lien and the receipt of the usual official notice of
the payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due
and owing. Such payments shall constitute Bank Expenses and additional
advances to Borrower.

10.  WAIVERS.
     -------

          10.1  Borrower agrees that checks and other instruments received by
     Bank in payment or on account of Borrower's Obligations constitute only
     conditional payment until such items are actually paid to the Bank and
     Borrower waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments
     at any time or times hereafter received by Bank on account of Borrower's
     Obligations and Borrower agrees that Bank shall have the continuing
     exclusive right to apply and reapply such payments in any manner as Bank
     may deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Bank upon its books.

any of them) has (have) given or give(s) Bank a deed of trust or mortgage

     For good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as set forth below:

the manner specified in said promissory note(s) in the event Bank exercises the
aforementioned option, and in the event Bank does not, such loans shall bear
interest at the rate and be payable in the manner specified in the Agreement.

4.  Borrower represents and warrants to Bank that:
     (a)  it has good and indefeasible title to the Equipment;
     (b)  the Equipment is and will be free and clear of all liens, security
          interests, encumbrances and claims, except as held by Bank,

     (e)  Bank shall have the right upon demand now and/or at all times
          hereafter, during Borrower's usual business hours to inspect and

          reasonable costs and expenses in so doing.

5.  Borrower shall keep and maintain the Equipment in good operating condition
and repair, make all necessary replacements thereto so that the value and
operating efficiency thereof shall at all times be maintained and preserved.
Borrower shall not permit any items of Equipment to become a fixture to real
estate or accession to other property, and the Equipment is now and shall at all
times remain and be personal property.

6.  Borrower, at its expense, shall keep and maintain: the Equipment insured
against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers and all other
hazards and risks ordinarily insured against by other owners who use such
properties and interest in properties in similar businesses for the full
insurable value thereof; and business interruption insurance and public
liability and property damage insurance relating to Borrowers ownership and use
of its assets. All such policies of insurance shall be in such form, with such
companies and in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Bank. Borrower shall
deliver to Bank certified copies of such policies of insurance and evidence of
the payment of all premiums thereof. All such policies of insurance (except
those of public liability and property damage) shall contain an endorsement in a
form satisfactory to Bank showing loss payable to Bank and all proceeds payable
thereunder shall be payable to Bank and upon receipt by Bank shall be applied on
the account of Borrower's Obligations. To secure the payment of Borrower's

adjusting claims under such policies of insurance and for making all
determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance. Each
such insurer shall agree by endorsement upon the policy or policies of insurance
issued by it to Borrower as required above, or by independent instruments
furnished to Bank that it will give Bank at least ten (10) days written notice
before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered or canceled,
and that no act or default of Borrower, or any other person, shall affect the
right of Bank to recover under such policy or policies of insurance required
above or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto. Bank, without
waiving or releasing any obligations or defaults by Borrower hereunder, may at
any time or times hereafter, but shall have no obligations to do so, obtain and
maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take any other
action with respect to such policies which Bank deems advisable. All sums so
disbursed by Bank, including reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, expenses
and other charges relating thereto, shall be a part of Borrower's Obligations
and payable on demand.

7.  Until default by Borrower under the Agreement or this Rider, Borrower may,
subject to the provisions of the Agreement and this Rider and consistent
therewith, remain in possession thereof and use the Equipment referred to herein
in the ordinary course of business at the location or locations hereinabove
designated.

8.  All of the terms, conditions, warranties, covenants, agreements and
representations of the Agreement are incorporated herein and reaffirmed.

request of Bank to do so, agrees to assemble and make the Equipment or any part
thereof available to Bank at a place designated by Bank.

10. Borrower shall upon demand by Bank immediately deliver to Bank and properly
endorse, any and all evidences of ownership, certificates of title or
applications for titles to any of the aforesaid items of Equipment.

arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value
thereof or (d) any act or default by any person whomsoever.  All risk of Loss,
damage or destruction of the Equipment shall be borne by Borrower.
