This Agreement provides terms and conditions that the parties intend to
apply to various loan transactions secured by personal property. Each such loan
transaction shall be evidenced in part by a collateral schedule that explicitly
incorporates the provisions of this Master Security Agreement and that sets
forth the description of the specific collateral. Where the provisions of a
Collateral Schedule (as defined below) conflict with the terms hereof, the
provisions of the Collateral Schedule shall prevail. Each Collateral Schedule
and Note (as defined below) shall constitute a complete and separate loan and
security agreement, independent of all other Collateral Schedules, and without
any requirement of being accompanied by an originally executed copy of this
Master Security Agreement.
One originally executed copy of the Collateral Schedule shall be
denominated "Originally Executed Copy No. 1 of __ originally executed copies."
If more than one copy of the Collateral Schedule is executed by Borrower and
KCL, all such other copies shall be consecutively numbered with numbers greater
than 1. Only transfer of possession by Secured Party of Originally Executed Copy
No. 1 shall be effective for purposes of perfecting an interest in such
Collateral Schedule by Possession.
1. Grant of Security Interest in the Equipment. In consideration of one or
more loans, advances or other financial accommodations at any time before, at or
after the date hereof, made or extended by KCL to or for the account of the
Borrower, directly or indirectly, as principal, guarantor or otherwise and to
secure the prompt payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of
time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Secured Obligations, the Borrower hereby
pledges, assigns, transfers and hypothecates to KCL and grants to KCL a security
interest in, and acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall create a
continuing security interest in, all of Borrower's right, title and interest in
and to the Collateral.
The Secured Obligations of the Borrower are absolute, irrevocable and
unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be
subject to any right of set-off, counterclaim, deduction, defense or other right
which the Borrower may have for any reason against any vendor, supplier,
manufacturer, KCL or any other party. All obligations of Borrower hereunder

Form No: MSA Rev. 012999 Page 2 of 12
EXECUTED BY BORROWER. Such Certificate of Acceptance shall constitute Borrower's

satisfactory to Borrower in all respects, (c) is suitable for Borrower's
purposes, (d) is in good order, repair and condition, (e) has been installed and

shall be conclusive evidence as between KCL and Borrower that the Items of
Equipment described therein are in all of the foregoing respects satisfactory to
Borrower, and Borrower shall not assert any claim of any nature whatsoever
against KCL based on any of the foregoing matters; provided, however, that
nothing contained herein shall in any way bar, reduce or defeat any claim that
Borrower may have against the Supplier or any other person (other than KCL).
4. Payments. Borrower shall pay each Note on the terms set forth therein.
All Installments shall be payable when due whether or not Borrower has received
any additional notice that such Installments are due. All Installments shall be
paid to KCL at ▇.▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇, or as otherwise
directed by KCL in writing.
5. Location; Inspection. The Equipment shall be delivered to the Equipment
Location and shall not be removed therefrom without KCL's prior written consent.
Borrower shall maintain possession and control of the Equipment at all times.
KCL shall have the right to enter upon the Equipment Location and inspect the
Equipment at any reasonable time. Borrower will promptly give written notice to
KCL of any change in the identity or location of any Item of Equipment which
might require new filings or other action to assure continued perfection of the
security interest of KCL granted hereby. The Borrower owns, and will continue to
own, all Equipment Locations except as otherwise indicated on a Collateral
Schedule.
6. Use; Alterations. Borrower shall use the Equipment only in the course of
its business for commercial purposes (and shall not permanently discontinue use
of the Equipment), and in compliance with Applicable Law and the requirements of
any applicable insurance policies, and only in the manner for which it was
designed and intended and so as to subject it only to ordinary wear and tear.
Borrower shall comply with all Applicable Law with respect to the Equipment.
Borrower shall immediately notify KCL in writing of any existing or threatened
investigation, claim or action by any Governmental Authority in connection with
any Applicable Law or Governmental Action which could adversely affect the value
of the Equipment or the perfection or priority of the security interest of KCL
in the Collateral. Borrower shall not make any material alterations, additions,
modifications or improvements (each, an "Alteration") to the Equipment without
KCL's prior written consent; provided that Borrower, at its own expense, shall
make such Alterations to the Equipment as may be required from time to time to
meet the requirements of Applicable Law or Governmental Action. All such
Alterations immediately, and without further act, shall be deemed to constitute
Items of Equipment and fully be subject to the security interest granted to KCL
hereunder.
7. Repairs and Maintenance. Borrower, at Borrower's own cost and expense,
shall (a) keep the Equipment in good repair, operating condition and working
order and in compliance with the manufacturer's specifications and Borrower's
standard practices (but with respect to the latter, in no event less than
industry practices) and (b) enter into and keep in full force and effect during
the Term hereof a maintenance agreement with the manufacturer of the Equipment,
or a manufacturer-approved maintenance organization, to maintain, service and
repair the Equipment as otherwise required herein. Upon KCL's request, Borrower
shall furnish KCL with an executed copy of any such maintenance agreement. An
alternate source of maintenance may be used by Borrower with KCL's prior written
consent. Borrower, at its own cost and expense and within a reasonable period of
time, shall replace any part of any Item of Equipment that is unfit or
unavailable for use from any cause (whether or not such replacement is covered
by the aforesaid maintenance agreement) with a replacement part of the same
manufacture, value, remaining useful life and utility as the replaced part
immediately preceding the replacement (assuming that such replaced part was in
the condition required by this Agreement). Such replacement part shall be free
and clear of all Liens and upon installation, attachment or incorporation in, on
or into such Item of Equipment, such replacement part immediately, and without
further act, shall be deemed to constitute an Item of Equipment and fully be
subject to the security interest granted to KCL hereunder. If KCL repossesses
the Equipment pursuant to its rights under this Agreement and at that time, in
the opinion of KCL, any Item of Equipment fails to meet the standards set forth
above, Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses incurred in
connection with repairing or restoring such Item of Equipment so as to meet such
standards and/or assembling and delivering such Item of Equipment.
8. Equipment Upgrades/Attachments. In addition to the requirements of
Section 6 hereof, Borrower, at its own expense, may from time to time add or
install upgrades or attachments (each, an "Upgrade") to the Equipment; provided,
that such Upgrades are readily removable without causing material damage to the
Equipment, and do not materially adversely affect the fair market value of the
Equipment. Any such Upgrades shall be owned by Borrower, shall become subject to
the security interest created by this Agreement and shall be kept free and clear
of all Liens so long as attached to the Equipment.

9. Lease and Assignment. (a) WITHOUT KCL'S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT, BORROWER
SHALL NOT (i) ASSIGN, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATE OR OTHERWISE DISPOSE OF, THE
EQUIPMENT OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, OR ASSIGN OR DELEGATE ITS RIGHTS OR
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR (ii) LEASE OR LEND THE EQUIPMENT TO, OR
PERMIT THE EQUIPMENT TO BE USED BY, ANYONE OTHER THAN BORROWER.
(b) KCL, at any time with or without notice to Borrower, may sell,
transfer, grant participations in, assign and/or grant a security interest in
any or all of KCL's right, title and interest in and to the Loan Documents, or
in KCL's interest in any Item of Equipment. In any such event, any such
purchaser, transferee, assignee or secured party shall have and may exercise all
of KCL's rights hereunder or thereunder, and BORROWER SHALL NOT ASSERT AGAINST
ANY SUCH PURCHASER, TRANSFEREE, ASSIGNEE OR SECURED PARTY ANY DEFENSE,
COUNTERCLAIM OR OFFSET THAT BORROWER MAY HAVE AGAINST KCL. Borrower agrees that
upon written notice to Borrower of any such sale, transfer, assignment and/or
security interest, Borrower shall acknowledge receipt thereof in writing and
shall comply with the reasonable directions and demands of such purchaser,
transferee, assignee or secured party.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, all covenants and agreements contained herein
shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, KCL and its successors and
permitted assigns and Borrower and its successors and permitted assigns.
10. Loss of or Damage to Equipment. In the event of Loss or Damage to any
Item of Equipment, Borrower shall immediately notify KCL of same and, at the
option of KCL, as specified in a notice from KCL to Borrower, Borrower shall
within thirty (30) days following such Loss or Damage: (1) place such Item of
Equipment in good condition and repair, in accordance with the terms hereof; (2)
replace such Item of Equipment with replacement equipment (acceptable to KCL) in
as good condition and repair, and with the same or better fair market value as
such replaced Item of Equipment immediately preceding the Loss or Damage
(assuming that such replaced Item of Equipment was in the condition required by
this Agreement), which replacement equipment shall immediately, and without
further act, be deemed to constitute Items of Equipment and be fully subject to
this Agreement as if originally pledged as Collateral hereunder and shall be
free and clear of all Liens; or (3) pay to KCL any unpaid Installments and other
charges due prior to the payment date specified in such notice plus an amount,
with respect to an Item of Equipment, equal to the pro rata portion of the
Installments attributable to such Item of Equipment under the Loan Documents
after discounting such Installments to present worth as of the payment date
specified in such notice on the basis of a per annum rate of discount equal to
three percent (3%) from the respective dates upon which such Installments would
have been paid but for the operation of this clause, together with interest on
such amount at the Default Rate from the payment date specified in such notice
to the date of actual payment.
Upon KCL's receipt of the payment required under clause (3) above, KCL
shall release its security interest in such Item of Equipment. If Borrower
replaces the Item of Equipment pursuant to clause (2) above, such replacement
shall be deemed to constitute an Item of Equipment and be fully subject to this
Agreement and the security interest granted to KCL hereunder, as if originally
pledged hereunder. If Borrower fails to either restore or replace the Item of
Equipment pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) above, respectively, Borrower shall
make the payment under clause (3) above.
11. Insurance. (a) Borrower, at Borrower's own cost and expense, shall
maintain (1) insurance against all risks of physical loss or damage to the
Equipment (which shall include theft and collision for Equipment consisting of
motor vehicles, and shall not exclude loss resulting from flood or earthquake)
in an amount not less than the full replacement value thereof and (2)
comprehensive public liability insurance including blanket contractual liability
for personal and bodily injury and property damage in an amount satisfactory to
KCL.
(b) All insurance policies required hereunder shall (1) require 30 days'
prior written notice to KCL of cancellation or material change in coverage (any
such cancellation or change, as applicable, not being effective until the
thirtieth (30th) day after the giving of such notice); (2) name "KeyCorp and its
subsidiaries and affiliated companies, including KeyCorp Leasing, a Division of
Key Corporate Capital Inc." as sole loss payee under the property insurance
policies; (3) not require contributions from other policies held by KCL; (4)
waive any right of subrogation against KCL; (5) in respect of any liability of
KCL, except for the insurers' salvage rights in the event of a Loss or Damage,
waive the right of such insurers to set-off, to counterclaim or to any other
deduction, whether by attachment or otherwise, to the extent of any monies due
KCL under such policies; (6) not require that KCL pay or be liable for any
premiums with respect to such insurance covered thereby; (7) be in full force
and effect throughout any geographical areas at any time traversed by any Item
of Equipment; and (8) contain breach of warranty provisions providing that, in
respect of the interests of KCL in such policies, the insurance shall not be
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form No: MSA Rev. 012999 Page 4 of 12
invalidated by any action or inaction of Borrower or any other person (other
than KCL) and shall insure KCL regardless of any breach or violation of any
warranty, declaration or condition contained in such policies by Borrower or by
any other person (other than KCL). Prior to funding a Note, and thereafter not
less than 15 days prior to the expiration dates of the expiring policies
theretofore delivered pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall deliver to KCL a
duplicate original of all policies (or in the case of blanket policies,
certificates thereof issued by the insurers thereunder) for the insurance
maintained pursuant to this Section.
(c) Proceeds of insurance with respect to physical loss or damage to the
Equipment shall be applied, at the option of KCL, to repair or replace the
Equipment or to reduce or satisfy (as applicable) the Secured Obligations.
12. Taxes. Borrower shall pay when due any and all taxes, fees, levies,
imposts, duties, assessments and public and private charges levied or assessed
on or with respect to the Equipment, on the use thereof, or on this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents.
13. KCL's Right to Perform for Borrower. If Borrower fails to perform any
of its obligations contained in the Loan Documents, KCL may (but shall not be
obligated to) itself perform such obligations, and the amount of the reasonable
costs and expenses of KCL incurred in connection with such performance, together
with interest on such amount from the date paid by KCL 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 waiver of any rights or
remedies of KCL, or be deemed to cure the default of Borrower hereunder. All
such sums and amounts so expended by KCL shall be repayable by the Borrower
immediately without notice or demand, shall constitute additional Secured
Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said amounts are expended at
the Default Rate.
14. Delinquent Payments; Interest. If Borrower fails to pay any of the
Installments on the date when the same becomes due, Borrower shall pay to KCL a
late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such delinquent amount. Such late
charge shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by KCL and shall be deemed part
of the Secured Obligations. In no event shall such late charge exceed the
maximum amounts permitted under Applicable Law.
15. Personal Property; Liens; Warranty of Title. The Borrower is, and will
continue to be, the sole owner of the Equipment, free from any Lien. KCL and
Borrower hereby agree that the Equipment is, and shall at all times remain,
personal property notwithstanding the fact that any Item of Equipment may now
be, or hereafter become, in any manner affixed or attached to real property or
any improvements thereon. Borrower shall at all times keep the Equipment free
and clear from all Liens, and the Borrower shall obtain and deliver to KCL (to
be recorded at the Borrower's expense) from each person having a Lien on any
Equipment Location waivers of any Lien which such person might have or hereafter
obtain or claim with respect to the Equipment. Borrower shall (i) give KCL
immediate written notice of any Lien on the Collateral, (ii) promptly, at
Borrower's sole cost and expense, take such action as may be necessary to
discharge any such Lien, and (iii) indemnify and hold KCL, on an after-tax
basis, harmless from and against any loss or damage caused by any such Lien.
Borrower warrants that it has good, valid and marketable title to the Equipment,
and that (i) the security interest in the Collateral granted to KCL hereunder,
when properly perfected by filing, shall constitute a valid and perfected first
priority security interest in the Collateral and, (ii) the Collateral is not
subject to, and Borrower will not grant or permit to exist, any Liens or claims
on or against the Collateral, whether senior, superior, junior, subordinate or
equal to the security interest granted to KCL hereby, or otherwise.
16. Events of Default; Remedies. (a) As used herein, the term "Event of
Default" shall mean any of the following events: (1) Borrower fails to pay any
Installment within ten (10) days after the same becomes due and payable; (2)
Borrower breaches any of its other obligations under any of the Loan Documents
and fails to cure the same within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof;
(3) any dissolution, termination of existence, merger, consolidation, change in
controlling ownership of Borrower or Guarantor, or if Borrower or Guarantor is a
natural person, the death or incompetence of Borrower or Guarantor; (4) Borrower
or any Guarantor fails to pay its debts generally as they become due or becomes
insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (5) a
receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Borrower or any Guarantor or of
all or a substantial part of Borrower's or such Guarantor's assets is appointed
with or without the application or consent of Borrower or such Guarantor,
respectively; (6) a petition is filed by or against Borrower or any Guarantor
under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar legislation; (7) 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; (8) Borrower violates or fails
to perform any covenant or representation made by Borrower in the Loan
Documents; (9) any representation or warranty made herein or in any of the Loan
Documents, certificates, financial
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form No: MSA Rev. 012999 Page 5 of 12
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; (10) there is a material adverse change
in Borrower's or any Guarantor's financial condition; (11) Borrower shall fail
to satisfy any final judgment rendered against the Borrower by any court of
competent jurisdiction where the judgment is material in amount as to the
Borrower or materially impairs the financial or business condition of the
Borrower; (12) any of the liens created or granted hereby, or intended to be
granted or created hereby, to KCL shall fail to be valid, first priority
perfected liens subject to no prior or equal lien; or (13) the receipt by KCL of
a notice to creditors with regard to a bulk transfer by the Borrower pursuant to
Article 6 of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (14) an additional Lien attaches to
the Equipment or the Equipment becomes subject to risk of seizure or forfeiture.
(b) (i) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, KCL, at its option, may
declare any or all of the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation,
any Notes(s) issued pursuant hereto, to be immediately due and payable, without
demand or notice to Borrower or any Guarantor, and KCL shall have the immediate
right to enforce all Collateral Schedules. 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.
(ii) 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 the
Uniform Commercial Code under the laws of the State of New York (the "UCC")
(regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights
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: (i) enter and remain on any premises on which any
of the Equipment may be located and, without resistance or interference by the
Borrower, and without liability to KCL by reason of such entry or taking
possession, take possession of the Equipment, (ii) prepare for sale and sell or
otherwise dispose of any Equipment on any such premises, (iii) require the
Borrower to assemble and make available to KCL at Borrower's expense any
Equipment at any place and time designated by KCL, (iv) remove any Equipment
from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition
thereof, (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or
process of law, all of which the Borrower hereby waives, at any place and time
or times, sell and deliver any or all Equipment held by or for it at public or
private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon
credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as KCL deems advisable,
in its sole discretion, or (vi) 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 costs and expenses incurred by KCL, including reasonable attorneys'
fees and court costs, in obtaining or liquidating the Collateral, in enforcing
payment 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,
arising under or related to a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code.
(iii) 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. 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 OTHER EVENT
GIVING RISE TO THE REQUIREMENT OF SUCH NOTICE. KCL SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO
MAKE ANY SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE EQUIPMENT REGARDLESS OF NOTICE HAVING
BEEN GIVEN. KCL MAY BE THE PURCHASER AT ANY SUCH SALE. THE BORROWER HEREBY
WAIVES ALL OF ITS RIGHTS OF REDEMPTION FROM ANY SUCH SALE. KCL MAY POSTPONE OR
CAUSE THE POSTPONEMENT OF THE SALE OF ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE EQUIPMENT BY
ANNOUNCEMENT AT THE TIME AND PLACE OF SUCH SALE, AND
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form No: MSA Rev. 012999 Page 6 of 12
SUCH SALE MAY, WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE, BE MADE AT THE TIME AND PLACE TO WHICH
THE SALE WAS SCHEDULED. NONE OF KCL'S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER ARE INTENDED
TO BE 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.

$4,040,652.97 Funding Date: __________ (Month) _____ (Day), ________ (Year)
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, PRESSTEK, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Maker"), promises
to pay to the order of KEYCORP LEASING, A DIVISION OF KEY CORPORATE CAPITAL INC.
("Holder"), the sum of FOUR MILLION FORTY THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED FIFTY-TWO DOLLARS
AND 97 CENTS ($4,040,652.97) in lawful money of the United States of America
(the "Principal"), with interest thereon as hereafter provided ("Interest"), to
be paid in the manner set forth herein.
1. Interest Rate; Place of Payment. Interest on the balance of the
Principal outstanding on this Note shall accrue from the Funding Date of this
Note and shall be due and payable at a fixed rate of seven and twenty-five
hundredths percent (7.25%) per annum (the "Interest Rate") which rate shall be
immediately and correspondingly adjusted (pursuant to 2(b) hereof) with each
change in the Actual Index (as hereinafter defined). Interest shall be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Payment of the Principal and Interest hereunder shall be made to Holder at ▇.▇.
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇, or at such other place as Holder may
designate from time to time in writing. Holder reserves the right to require
payment on this Note to be made by wired federal funds or other immediately
available funds.
2. Repayment Terms. (a) The Principal and Interest shall be due and payable
in eighty-four (84) consecutive monthly installments payable in arrears, each in
an amount equal to $61,479.28, commencing and payable on the date which is one
(1) month after the Funding Date and on the same day of each month thereafter
(each, a "Note Payment Date"). In addition, Maker will pay a late payment charge
of five percent (5%) of any payment due hereunder that is not paid on or before
the date due hereunder.
(b) Maker and Holder agree that each Note payment hereunder shall be
increased or decreased (but not below zero), as the case may be, by the Rate
Differential (as hereinafter defined) as follows: if, as of any Note Payment
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
Rate Differential is less than zero, the amount of the Note Payment due on such
Note Payment Date shall be decreased by such Rate Differential.
(c) As used herein, the following terms shall have the respective meanings
indicated below:
(1) "Assumed Index" shall mean eight and twenty-five hundredths
percent (8.25%).
(2) "Actual Index" shall mean, as of the date of determination,

such day, or if The Wall Street Journal is not published on such day,
then the "prime rate" announced in the most recently published edition
of The Wall Street Journal. If the Actual Index is no longer
available, Holder will choose a new index which is based upon
comparable information and will give Maker notice of such new "Actual
Index."
(3) "Daily Equivalent" shall mean, as of the date of
determination, the product of the following formula:
=========================================================================
Daily Equivalent = Actual Index - Assumed Index X Net Investment Balance
----------------------------
360
=========================================================================
(4) "Net Investment Balance" shall mean, as of the date of
determination, the outstanding balance (initially calculated using the
Assumed Index minus 100 basis points) reflected on Holder's lease
accounting system (which assumes a 360 day year consisting of twelve
30 day months), for the Note Payment Date immediately preceding such
day or, if such day is a Note Payment Date, for such Note Payment
Date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form No: MSA Rev. 012999 Page 1
(5) "Rate Differential" shall mean, with respect to any Note
Payment Date, the sum of all Daily Equivalents (calculated on the
basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months) for the 30
day month to which such Note Payment Date relates.

shall be construed in connection with and as part of the Master Security
Agreement dated as of September 27, 1999 and Collateral Schedule No. 01 thereto
("Master Security Agreement"), and all terms and conditions contained in the
Master Security Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference with the
same force and effect as if such terms and conditions were fully stated herein.
In addition, capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the
meaning given them in the Master Security Agreement. By execution of this Note,
Maker reaffirms all terms and conditions of the Master Security Agreement except
as they may be modified hereby. To the extent that any of the terms and
conditions of this Note are contrary to or inconsistent with any terms and
conditions of the Master Security Agreement, the terms and conditions of this
Note shall govern. MAKER HEREBY CERTIFIES TO HOLDER THAT THE REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES MADE BY MAKER IN THE MASTER SECURITY AGREEMENT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, SECTION 22 THEREOF) ARE TRUE AND CORRECT IN ALL MATERIAL RESPECTS AS
OF THE DATE OF THIS NOTE WITH THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGHT MADE ON AND AS OF SUCH
DATE. Maker shall take such additional actions and execute and deliver such
additional documents as Holder shall deem necessary from time to time to
effectuate the terms of the Note.
4. Security. Payment of the Principal and Interest hereunder, and the
performance and observance by Maker of all agreements, covenants and provisions
contained herein, is secured by a first priority security interest in the
Collateral.
5. Prepayment. Except as contemplated by clause (3) of section 10 of the
Security Agreement, Maker may not prepay, in whole or in part, the principal

then to Interest as of the payment due date and the balance, if any, to the
outstanding Principal as of the date received. Upon the occurrence, and during
the continuance, of an Event of Default, any payments in respect of the Secured

Note, the Master Security Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents for
thirty (30) days after written notice from Holder of such failure; or (3) any

connection with this Note is false or misleading in any material respect; or (4)
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Master Security
Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default: (i) 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

of the Principal automatically shall be accelerated and due and payable and
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

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.
9. Collection Costs. In addition to the Principal, Interest, Prepayment
Premium (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
