The parties desire to amend the Loan Agreement as hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, for TEN DOLLARS ($10.00) in hand paid and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby

Events of Default that exists under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan

constitute a waiver of (a) any Default Condition or Event of Default other than
the Designated Defaults in existence on the date of this Amendment or (b)

Agreement and the other Loan Documents from and after the date hereof.

strictly to comply with all of the terms of the Loan Documents on and after the
date hereof.

Borrower are legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower that are
enforceable against Borrower in accordance with the terms thereof; all of the
Obligations are owing and payable without defense, offset or counterclaim (and
to the extent there exists any such defense, offset or counterclaim on the date
hereof, the same is hereby waived by Borrower); the security interests and liens
granted by Borrower in favor of Lender are duly perfected, first priority
security interests and liens; and the unpaid principal amount of the Advances on
and as of March 28, 2001, totaled $0.

or Event of Default exists on the date hereof other than the Designated
Defaults; the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment have been
duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Borrower and

"hereunder," or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan
Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.
