Borrower promises to pay to the order of Bank, in lawful money of the United
States of America, at its office indicated above or wherever else Bank may
specify, the sum of Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or such sum
as may be advanced and outstanding from time to time, with interest on the
unpaid principal balance at the rate and on the terms provided in this Revolving
Promissory Note (including all renewals, extensions or modifications hereof,
this "Note").

LOAN AGREEMENT. This Note is subject to the provisions of that certain Loan
Agreement between Bank and Borrower of even date herewith, as the same shall be
amended or modified from time to time (the "Loan Agreement").

LINE OF CREDIT. Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow, and, upon the request
of Borrower, Bank shall advance and readvance under this Note from time to time
until June 30, 2009, unless renewed or extended by Bank in writing on terms then
satisfactory to Bank in its sole discretion (each an "Advance" and together the
"Advances"), so long as the total principal balance outstanding under this Note
at any one time does not exceed the principal amount stated on the face of this
Note, subject to the limitations described in the Loan Agreement. Bank's
obligation to make Advances under this Note shall terminate if Borrower is in
Default under this Note or under any Loan Document or in any event on June 30,
2009, unless renewed or extended by Bank in writing on terms then satisfactory
to Bank in its sole discretion. As of the date of each proposed Advance,
Borrower shall be deemed to represent that each representation made in the Loan
Documents is true as of such date.

If Borrower subscribes to Bank's cash management services and such services are
applicable to this line of credit, the terms of such service shall control the
manner in which funds are transferred between the applicable demand deposit
account and the line of credit for credit or debit to the line of credit.

USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the loan evidenced by this
Note for working capital support, general corporate purposes and to support
acquisition financing needs.

INTEREST RATE. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this
Note from the date hereof at the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.5%, as that rate
may change from day to day in accordance with changes in the LIBOR Market Index
Rate ("Interest Rate"). "LIBOR Market Index Rate", for any day, means the rate
for 1 month U.S. dollar deposits as reported on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00
a.m., London time, on such day, or if such day is not a London business day,
then the immediately preceding London business day (or if not so reported, then
as determined by Bank from another recognized source or interbank quotation).

 
 

 
DEFAULT RATE. In addition to all other rights contained in this Note, if a
Default (as defined herein) occurs and as long as a Default continues, all
outstanding Obligations, other than Obligations under any swap agreements (as
defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 101, as in effect from time to time) between Borrower
and Bank or its affiliates, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate plus 3%
("Default Rate"). The Default Rate shall also apply from acceleration until the
Obligations or any judgment thereon is paid in full.

INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION (ACTUAL/360). Interest and fees, if any, shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the
applicable period ("Actual/360 Computation"). The Actual/360 Computation
determines the annual effective interest yield by taking the stated (nominal)
rate for a year's period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the
daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period.
Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate
exceeding the nominal rate.

REPAYMENT TERMS/MATURITY. This Note shall be due and payable in consecutive
monthly payments of accrued interest only, commencing on June 17, 2006, and
continuing on the 17th day of each month thereafter until fully paid. In any
event, all principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable on June 30,
2009 (the "Maturity Date").

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Monies received by Bank from any source for application
toward payment of the Obligations shall be applied to accrued interest and then
to principal. If a Default occurs, monies may be applied to the Obligations in
any manner or order deemed appropriate by Bank.

If any payment received by Bank under this Note or other Loan Documents is
rescinded, avoided or for any reason returned by Bank because of any adverse
claim or threatened action, the returned payment shall remain payable as an
obligation of all persons liable under this Note or other Loan Documents as
though such payment had not been made.

DEFINITIONS. LOAN DOCUMENTS. The term "Loan Documents", as used in this Note and
the other Loan Documents, refers to all documents executed in connection with or
related to the loan evidenced by this Note and any prior notes which evidence
all or any portion of the loan evidenced by this Note, and any letters of credit
issued pursuant to any loan agreement to which this Note is subject, any
applications for such letters of credit and any other documents executed in
connection therewith or related thereto, and may include, without limitation,

of $1,000,000.00 (as the same may be amended, modified, restated or replaced
from time to time, the "$1,000,000.00 Note"), guaranty agreements, security
instruments, financing statements, mortgage instruments, any renewals or
modifications, whenever any of the foregoing are executed, but does not include
swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 101, as in effect from time to
time). OBLIGATIONS. The term "Obligations", as used in this Note and the other

effect from time to time) between Borrower and Bank, or its affiliates, whenever

in any of the Loan Documents shall have the definitions provided in the Uniform
Commercial Code.

LATE CHARGE. If any payments are not timely made, Borrower shall also pay to
Bank a late charge equal to 5% of each payment past due for 10 or more days.
This late charge shall not apply to payments due at maturity or by acceleration
hereof, unless such late payment is in an amount not greater than the highest
periodic payment due hereunder.

Acceptance by Bank of any late payment without an accompanying late charge shall
not be deemed a waiver of Bank's right to collect such late charge or to collect
a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.

                                       2

or in any appellate or bankruptcy proceeding.

USURY. If at any time the effective interest rate under this Note would, but for
this paragraph, exceed the maximum lawful rate, the effective interest rate
under this Note shall be the maximum lawful rate, and any amount received by

expenses, or, if no such amounts are owing, returned to Borrower.

loans, contracts or agreements of Borrower, any Subsidiary or Affiliate of
Borrower, any general partner of or the holder(s) of the majority ownership
interests of Borrower with Bank or its affiliates ("Affiliate" shall have the

sole discretion, that the prospects for payment or performance of the
Obligations are impaired or there has occurred a material adverse change in the

WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS. No waivers, amendments or modifications of this Note and
other Loan Documents shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an officer
of Bank. No waiver by Bank of any Default shall operate as a waiver of any other
Default or the same Default on a future occasion. Neither the failure nor any
delay on the part of Bank in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this
Note and other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a

modify or renew this Note or make a novation of the loan evidenced by this Note
without the consent of the Borrower, or if there is more than one Borrower,
without the consent of at least one Borrower; and further provided, if there is
more than one Borrower, Bank may not enter into a modification of this Note
which increases the burdens of a Borrower without the consent of that Borrower.

from time to time), if any, between Borrower and Bank or its affiliates are
independent agreements governed by the written provisions of said swap
agreements, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any

(Hereinafter referred to as "Bank")

Borrower promises to pay to the order of Bank, in lawful money of the United
States of America, at its office indicated above or wherever else Bank may
specify, the sum of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or such sum
as may be advanced and outstanding from time to time, with interest on the
unpaid principal balance at the rate and on the terms provided in this
Promissory Note (including all renewals, extensions or modifications hereof,
this "Note").

LOAN AGREEMENT. This Note is subject to the provisions of that certain Loan
Agreement between Bank and Borrower of even date herewith, as the same shall be
amended or modified from time to time (the "Loan Agreement").

ADVANCES. Borrower may borrow, and upon the request of Borrower, Bank shall
advance under this Note (each an "Advance" and together the "Advances"), so long
as the total principal balance outstanding under this Note at any one time does
not exceed the principal amount stated on the face of this Note, subject to the
limitations described in the Loan Agreement. Bank's obligation to make Advances
shall terminate if Borrower is in Default under this Note or under any Loan
Document or in any event on June 30, 2007, unless renewed or extended by Bank in
writing upon such terms then satisfactory to Bank. As of the date of each
proposed Advance, Borrower shall be deemed to represent that each representation
made in the Loan Documents is true as of such date. Advances, once repaid, may
not be reborrowed.

USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the loan evidenced by this
Note to support acquisition financing needs not supported by the $5,000,000.00
Note (as defined below).

INTEREST RATE. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this
Note from the date hereof at the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.5%, as that rate
may change from day to day in accordance with changes in the LIBOR Market Index
Rate ("Interest Rate"). "LIBOR Market Index Rate", for any day, means the rate
for 1 month U.S. dollar deposits as reported on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00

then the immediately preceding London business day (or if not so reported, then
as determined by Bank from another recognized source or interbank quotation).

DEFAULT RATE. In addition to all other rights contained in this Note, if a
Default (as defined herein) occurs and as long as a Default continues, all
outstanding Obligations, other than Obligations under any swap agreements (as
defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 101, as in effect from time to time) between Borrower
and Bank or its affiliates, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate plus 3%
("Default Rate"). The Default Rate shall also apply from acceleration until the

                                       7
 
 

 
INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION (ACTUAL/360). Interest and fees, if any, shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the
applicable period ("Actual/360 Computation"). The Actual/360 Computation
determines the annual effective interest yield by taking the stated (nominal)
rate for a year's period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the
daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period.
Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate
exceeding the nominal rate.

REPAYMENT TERMS/MATURITY. This Note shall be due and payable in thirty-six (36)
consecutive monthly payments of principal in an amount necessary to repay this
Note in full, amortized over a three (3) year term, plus accrued interest,
commencing thirty (30) days from the date of the initial Advance, and continuing
on the same day of each month thereafter until fully paid. In any event, all
principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i)
three (3) years from the date of the initial Advance or (ii) June 30, 2010 (the
"Maturity Date").

SCHEDULED PAYMENT ADJUSTMENT. At Bank's option and with notice to Borrower, the
scheduled payment amount will increase as is necessary (i) to pay all accruals
of interest for the period and previous periods and (ii) to maintain principal
repayment according to the amortization that would have occurred if the Interest
Rate in effect on the date of this Note had remained constant. The increased
payment amount shall remain in effect for as long as the original scheduled
payment amount is insufficient to pay accrued interest and principal and shall
be further adjusted upward or downward to reflect changes in the variable
interest rate. The scheduled payment amount will not be reduced below the
original scheduled payment amount.

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Monies received by Bank from any source for application
toward payment of the Obligations shall be applied to accrued interest and then
to principal. If a Default occurs, monies may be applied to the Obligations in
any manner or order deemed appropriate by Bank.

If any payment received by Bank under this Note or other Loan Documents is
rescinded, avoided or for any reason returned by Bank because of any adverse
claim or threatened action, the returned payment shall remain payable as an
obligation of all persons liable under this Note or other Loan Documents as
though such payment had not been made.

DEFINITIONS. LOAN DOCUMENTS. The term "Loan Documents", as used in this Note and
the other Loan Documents, refers to all documents executed in connection with or
related to the loan evidenced by this Note and any prior notes which evidence
all or any portion of the loan evidenced by this Note, and any letters of credit

modify or renew this Note or make a novation of the loan evidenced by this Note
without the consent of the Borrower, or if there is more than one Borrower,
without the consent of at least one Borrower; and further provided, if there is
more than one Borrower, Bank may not enter into a modification of this Note

NON-CONTRAVENTION. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower and any
guarantor, as applicable, of this Agreement and other Loan Documents to which it

and, if necessary, by making appropriate filings with any governmental agency or
unit and are the legal, binding, valid and enforceable obligations of Borrower
and any guarantors; and do not (i) contravene, or constitute (with or without
the giving of notice or lapse of time or both) a violation of any provision of

SENIOR FUNDED DEBT TO EBITDA RATIO. Borrower shall, at all times maintain, a

shall be calculated quarterly, on a rolling four quarters basis. "Senior Funded

the sum of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
"Senior Funded Debt" shall mean, as applied to any person or entity, the sum of
all indebtedness for borrowed money, including, without limitation, capital
lease obligations and unreimbursed drawings under letters of credit, or any
obligation evidenced by a note, bond, debenture or other agreement of that
person or entity, excluding any debt fully subordinated to Bank on terms and
conditions acceptable to Bank. This covenant shall be tested quarterly. TOTAL

a ratio of Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth of not more than 2.00 to
1.00, measured annually. "Total Liabilities" shall mean all liabilities of
Borrower, excluding debt fully subordinated to Bank on terms and conditions
acceptable to Bank, and including capitalized leases and all reserves for
deferred taxes and other deferred sums appearing on the liabilities side of a
balance sheet, all in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a consistent basis. "Tangible Net Worth" shall mean total assets
minus Total Liabilities. For purposes of this computation, the aggregate amount
of any intangible assets of Borrower including, without limitation, employee

trademarks, trade names, copyrights, service marks, and brand names, shall be
subtracted from total assets. DEPOSIT Relationship. Borrower shall maintain its
primary depository account and cash management accounts with Bank. DEBT SERVICE

Borrower shall then, at all times, maintain a minimum Debt Service Coverage
Ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.00, measured annually. For fiscal year ending
December 31, 2006, "Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio" shall mean the sum of
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization minus dividends
and withdrawals, divided by the sum of current maturities of long-term debt and
capital lease obligations plus interest. Thereafter, "Minimum Debt Service


                                       17
 
 

 
Coverage Ratio" shall mean the sum of earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization minus dividends, withdrawals, unfinanced capital
expenditures, divided by the sum of current maturities of long-term debt and
capital lease obligations plus interest. This covenant shall be calculated
annually at Borrower's fiscal year end.

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT. The obligations of Bank to make the loan and any advances
pursuant to this Agreement are subject to the following conditions precedent:

hereunder, Bank shall have received a written opinion of the counsel of Borrower

consent of, approval of, or other action by, any federal, state or other
governmental authority or regulatory body is required by law in connection with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or
the extension of credit under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or, if
so required, such registration has been made, and such consent or approval given
or such other appropriate action taken. (d) The loan is not usurious. (e) The
Loan Documents create the security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the
Loan Documents) that is contemplated by the Loan Documents.

FEE. Borrower has paid Bank a fee in the amount of $2,500.00.

UNUSED FEE. Borrower shall pay to Bank quarterly an unused fee equal to 20 basis
points per annum. The Unused Fee shall be calculated on the difference between
(i) the face amount of the $5,000,000.00 Note and (ii) the outstanding principal
balance of the $5,000,000.00 Note for each day during the preceding period or
portion thereof (the "Unused Fee"). In lieu of the Unused Fee, Borrower may
elect to maintain a money market account at Bank with a minimum balance of
$350,000.00 (the "Minimum Compensating Balance"), which money market account
shall earn interest based on the prevailing Bank rate. Should the Borrower not
