                  "Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the proceeds of the
                  Loans  are not used for the  same,  and so long as none of the
                  equity  investments are made from any margin account of either
                  Borrower  or LGL,  the  Borrowers  shall be allowed to use the
                  proceeds of any loan or equity  investment from LGL, after the
                  date of this Third Amendment to purchase an equity  investment
                  in any entity which is subject to the  reporting  requirements
                  of the 34 Act."

         3.       Section 7.10 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding
                  the following sentence to the end of the existing section:

                  to enter into such agreements or arrangements  with LGL, after
                  the date of this Third  Amendment,  and in compliance with all
                  other terms of this Agreement,  to allow the LGL to loan to or

                  to be invested or loaned to M-TRON by LGL under  Section  7.10
                  of this Agreement is in the form of any type of  indebtedness,

                  compliance  with the  terms of this  Agreement  and  (iii) the
                  repayment of any principal of such loan or indebtedness  shall
                  only be paid  exclusively  from the dividends or distributions
                  received  from the entities in which the proceeds of such loan
                  or indebtedness from LGL were invested or from the liquidation
                  of such investment in such entities".

         5.       All other  provisions of the Loan  Agreement not  specifically
                  amended by this Third Amendment shall remain in full force and

                  and  confirms  that its separate  guarantee  of the  Borrowers
                  obligations  to the Bank are,  and  continue to be,  valid and

         8.       Borrowers  acknowledge  and agree  that,  except as amended by
                  this Third Amendment,  the Loan Agreement  continues to be the
