time and for any reason.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes

with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if

proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in

kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. in addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights
and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between
Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights
or of any of Borrower's or any Grantor's, obligations as to any future

Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not
constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is

given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when

For notice purposes, Borrower agrees to keep Lender informed at all times
of Borrower's current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by
law, if there is more than one Borrower, any notice given by Lender to any
Borrower is deemed to be notice given to all Borrowers.
SEVERABILITY. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any person or
circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable as to any other person or circumstance. If
feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it
becomes legal, valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be
so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless
otherwise required by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability
of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity
or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements contained by or on
behalf of Borrower shall bind Borrower's successors and assigns and shall
inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns. Borrower shall
not, however, have the right to assign Borrower's rights under this
Agreement or any interest therein, without the prior written consent of
Lender.

that in extending Loan Advances, Lender is relying on all representations,
warranties, and covenants made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any

deemed made and redated by Borrower at the time each Loan Advance is made,

MAY BE OUTSTANDING, TOGETHER WITH INTEREST ON THE UNPAID OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL
BALANCE OF EACH ADVANCE. INTEREST SHALL BE CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF EACH
ADVANCE UNTIL REPAYMENT OF EACH ADVANCE.

PLUS ALL ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST ON JUNE 1, 2000. IN ADDITION, BORROWER WILL PAY
REGULAR MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF ALL ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST DUE AS OF EACH PAYMENT

INTEREST RATE OVER A YEAR OF 360 DAYS, MULTIPLIED BY THE OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL
BALANCE, MULTIPLIED BY THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF DAYS THE PRINCIPAL BALANCE IS
OUTSTANDING. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such
other place as Lender may designate In writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Agreement is subject to change
from time to time based on changes in an index which is the Bank Base Rate (the
"Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its
loans and is set by Lender in its sole discretion. If the Index becomes
unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute
Index after notifying Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate
upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than

interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount
owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender
in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make
payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early payments will reduce the
principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid
in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a
payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this
Agreement, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to
Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any
check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes
"payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions
or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or
