Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Borrower shall not be required to pay, and Lender shall not be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law ("EXCESS INTEREST"). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that Lender may have received hereunder shall be, at Lender's option, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable law (the "MAXIMUM RATE"), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) neither Borrower nor any Loan Party shall have any action against Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest.

Borrower hereby authorizes Lender, in its sole discretion, to charge interest and other amounts payable hereunder to the Revolving Loan, all as set forth on Lender's books and records. If Lender elects to bill Borrower for any amount due hereunder, such amount shall be immediately due and payable with interest thereon as provided herein. All payments made by Borrower or the Acting Agents with respect to the Obligations shall be made without deduction, defense, setoff or counterclaim. All payments to Lender hereunder shall, unless otherwise directed by Lender, be made by wire transfer to Lender's account, ABA No. 0710-0001-3, Account No. 5590116 at The First National Bank of Chicago, One First National Plaza, Chicago, IL 60670, Reference: Heller 9 Commercial Funding for the benefit of Harmony Holdings, Inc., Harmony Pictures, Inc., and as the Harmony Group Agent; The End, Inc., and as The End Group Agent; and Curious Pictures Corporation, and as the Curious Group Agent;. Proceeds remitted to Lender shall be credited to the Obligations on the same Business Day such proceeds were received; PROVIDED HOWEVER, for the purpose of calculating interest on the Obligations, such funds shall be deemed received on the third Business Day thereafter. (B) MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS. At any time that the Revolving Loan exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount, the Acting Agents, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall immediately repay the Revolving Loan to the extent necessary to reduce the principal balance to an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount. (C) VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS AND REPAYMENTS. The Obligations may only be prepaid or repaid in full and not in part (other than prepayments of the Revolving Loan which do not terminate this Agreement or prepayments permitted under any Note). Borrower may, at any time upon not less than three Business Days' prior notice given by the Acting Agents to Lender, prepay the Obligations and terminate this Agreement. If Borrower voluntarily prepays the Obligations in full (other than voluntary prepayments of the Revolving Loan which do not terminate this Agreement), prior to the Termination Date, Borrower, at the time of prepayment, shall pay to Lender, as compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available to Borrower under this Agreement, and not as a penalty, an amount determined by multiplying the applicable percentage set forth below by (1) in the case of a prepayment in full of the Obligations, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan at the date of such prepayment plus $4,500,000, or $5,000,000 if the Term Loan has not yet been advanced, or (2) in the case of a prepayment in full of the Revolver Loan only the amount of such prepayment: 2.0% upon a prepayment during the first Loan Year; 1.0% upon a prepayment during the second Loan Year; and 0.0% upon a prepayment during the third Loan Year, and during any Renewal Term (as defined below). (D) PAYMENTS ON BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest or fees due hereunder. 2.5 TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall be effective until July ___, 2001 (the "ORIGINAL TERM") and shall automatically renew from year to year thereafter (each such year a "RENEWAL TERM") unless terminated by the Acting Agents and/or Holdings giving to Lender or Lender giving to the Acting Agents and/or Holdings not less than 60 days prior written notice of its intention to terminate at the end of the Original Term or at the end of any Renewal Term or upon repayment of all Obligations or as otherwise provided for herein (the "TERMINATION DATE"). Upon termination (whether on the Termination Date or otherwise) all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand. Notwithstanding any termination, until all Obligations have been fully paid and satisfied, Lender shall be entitled to retain security interests in and liens upon all Collateral, and even after payment of all Obligations hereunder, certain of Lender's and Borrower's agreements and obligations shall survive such terminations as set forth in SUBSECTION 8.6. 2.6 STATEMENTS. Lender shall render a monthly statement of account to the Acting Agents and Holdings within twenty (20) days after the end of each month. Such statement of account shall constitute an account stated and the Acting Agents and Holdings shall have fully and irrevocably waived all objections to such statements and the contents thereof unless the Acting Agent and Holdings makes written objection thereto within thirty (30) days from the date such statement is mailed to the Acting Agent and Holdings. 10 2.7 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, each Borrower hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest, lien and mortgage in and to all right, title and interest of Borrower in all personal and real property of Borrower whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of where located (all being collectively referred to as the "COLLATERAL") including, without limitation: (A) Accounts, and all guaranties and security therefor, and all goods and rights represented thereby or arising therefrom including the rights of stoppage in transit, replevin and reclamation; (B) Inventory; (C) general intangibles (as defined in the UCC); (D) documents (as defined in the UCC) or other receipts covering, evidencing or representing goods; (E) instruments (as defined in the UCC); (F) chattel paper (as defined in the UCC); (G) Equipment; (H) investment property (as defined in the UCC) including, without limitation, all securities (certificated and uncertificated), security accounts, securities entitlements, commodity contracts and commodity accounts; (I) Intellectual Property; (J) all deposit accounts of Borrower maintained with any bank or financial institution; (K) all cash and other monies and property of Borrower in the possession or under the control of Lender or any lender participant in any of the Loans; (L) all books, records, ledger cards, files, correspondence, computer programs, tapes, disks and related data processing software that at any time evidence or contain information relating to any of the property described above or are otherwise necessary or helpful in the collection thereof or realization thereon; and (M) proceeds of all or any of the property described above, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any insurance policies covering any of the above described property. 2.8 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.

Each Borrower acknowledges that any notice given by Lender to any other Borrower or any Acting Agent shall be effective with respect to each Borrower. Each Borrower shall be entitled to subrogation and contribution rights from and against any other Borrower to the extent such Borrower is required to pay to Lender any amount in excess of the Loans hereunder used directly by such Borrower or as otherwise available under applicable law; provided, however, that such subrogation and contribution rights are and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of paragraph (C) below. The provisions of this paragraph (B) shall in no way limit the obligations and liabilities of any Borrower and each Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for the full amount of the Obligations. (C) No Borrower will exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation hereunder or under any other Loan Document or at law by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, nor shall any Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any other Borrower in respect of payments made by such Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, until all amounts owing to Lender on account of the Obligations are paid in full and this Agreement is terminated. If any amounts shall be paid to any Borrower on account of such subrogation or contribution rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Borrower in trust for Lender, segregated from other funds of such Borrower, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Borrower, be turned over to Lender in the exact form received by such Borrower (duly endorsed by such Borrower to Lender, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as provided for herein. 2.9 DESIGNATION OF ACTING AGENT.

Borrower is now and shall be at all times hereafter able to pay its debts as they become due and shall have sufficient capital to enable it to operate its businesses. 4.11 DISCLOSURE.

Borrower shall cause Lender to be named as loss payee on all insurance policies relating to any Collateral and shall cause Lender to be named as additional insured under all liability policies, in each case pursuant to appropriate endorsements in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and shall collaterally assign to Lender as security for the payment of the Obligations all business interruption insurance of Borrower. No notice of cancellation has been received with respect to such policies and Borrower is in compliance with all conditions contained in such policies. Borrower shall apply any proceeds received from any policies of insurance relating to any Collateral to the Obligations. In the event Borrower fails to provide Lender with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Lender may, after giving notice to the Acting Agents and/or Holdings with one (1) day to cure such lack of coverage, but is not required to, purchase insurance at Borrower's expense to protect Lender's interests in the Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower's interests. The coverage purchased by Lender may not pay any claim made by Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the Collateral. Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Lender purchases insurance for the Collateral, Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and other charges imposed by Lender in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance Borrower is able to obtain on its own. 4.13 ACCOUNTING METHODS; ACCESS TO ACCOUNTANTS. Borrower shall maintain its current method of accounting, as of the closing date, without modification. Borrower authorizes Lender to discuss the financial condition and financial statements of Borrower with Borrower's Accountants, and authorizes Borrower's Accountants to respond to all of Lender's inquiries and Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a confidential relationship, if any, it may have with Borrower's Accountants in connection with any information requested by Lender pursuant to or in accordance with this Agreement. 4.14 INSPECTION. Lender shall have the right at any time during normal business hours to visit and inspect any of the properties of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and, in conjunction with such inspection, to make copies and take extracts from any of their books and records therefrom. 18 4.15 COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default and until such Default is cured or such Default or Event of Default is waived in writing by Lender, Lender may, at any time, with or without notice to Borrower, notify all account debtors of Borrower that the Accounts have been assigned to Lender, and that Lender has a security interest in same; collect the Accounts directly, and add the collection costs and expenses to Borrower's loan account. Unless and until Lender collects the Accounts directly, or gives any Acting Agent or Holdings written instructions, all payments on Accounts shall be collected in the manner set forth in SUBSECTION 4.16 below. 4.16 COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS AND PAYMENTS. The Acting Agents, Holdings and Lender shall establish depository accounts ("Lender's Depository Accounts") with such banks as are acceptable to Lender and Borrower to which Borrower shall remit all payments on Accounts and to which Borrower will immediately deposit all payments made for Inventory or other payments constituting proceeds of Collateral in the identical form in which such payment was received, whether by cash or check. Borrower, and any of its Affiliates, employees, agents, or other Persons acting for or in concert with Borrower, shall, acting as trustee for Lender, receive, as the sole and exclusive property of Lender, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payments relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into the possession or under the control of Borrower or any of Borrower's Affiliates, employees, agents or other Persons acting for or in concert with Borrower. Borrower hereby agrees that all payments received by Lender, whether by cash, check, wire transfer or any other instrument, made to such Lender's Depository Accounts or otherwise received by Lender and whether on the Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral or otherwise will be the sole and exclusive property of Lender. 4.17 YEAR 2000. Borrower has made an assessment of the microchip and computer-based systems and the software used in its business and based upon such assessment believes that it will be "Year 2000 Compliant" by January 1, 2000. For purposes of this paragraph, "Year 2000 Compliant" means that all software, embedded microchips and other processing capabilities utilized by, and material to the business operations or financial condition of, Borrower are able to interpret, store, transmit, receive and manipulate data involving all calendar dates correctly and without causing any abnormal ending scenarios in relation to dates in and after the Year 2000. From time to time, at the request of Lender, Borrower shall provide to Lender such updated information as is requested regarding the status of its efforts to become Year 2000 Compliant. SECTION 5. REPORTING AND OTHER AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS Each Borrower covenants and agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and until payment in full of all Obligations, each Borrower shall perform all of the following: 5.1 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER REPORTS.

Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, from time to time, execute such guaranties, financing or continuation statements, documents, security agreements, reports and other documents or deliver to Lender such instruments, certificates of title, mortgages, deeds of trust, or other documents as Lender at any time may reasonably request to evidence, perfect or otherwise implement the guaranties and security for repayment of the Obligations provided for in the Loan Documents. 5.7 USE OF PROCEEDS AND MARGIN SECURITY. Borrower shall use the proceeds of all Loans for proper business purposes consistent with all applicable laws, statutes, rules and regulations.

At any sale of the Collateral (whether public or private), if permitted by law, Lender may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness) for the purchase of the Collateral or any portion thereof for the account of Lender. Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency.

The appointment of Lender as Borrower's attorney-in-fact and Lender's rights and powers are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until indefeasible payment in full and complete performance of all of the Obligations. 7.6 LIMITATION ON DUTY OF LENDER WITH RESPECT TO COLLATERAL. Beyond the safe custody thereof, Lender shall have no duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee) or with respect to any income thereon or the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Lender accords its own property. Lender shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other agent or bailee selected by Borrower or an Acting Agent or selected by Lender in good faith. 7.7 LICENSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to Lender, effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the non-exclusive right and license to use all Intellectual Property owned or used by Borrower together with any goodwill associated therewith, all to the extent necessary to enable Lender to realize on the Collateral and any successor or assign to enjoy the benefits of the Collateral. This right and license shall inure to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of Lender and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Such right and license is granted free of charge, without requirement that any monetary payment whatsoever be made to Borrower by Lender. 7.8 WAIVERS, NON-EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Lender of any right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and shall in no way limit any other remedies provided by law. 7.9 DEMAND; PROTEST. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, and notice of nonpayment at maturity, and agrees that Lender may compromise, settle or release without notice to Borrower any accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and/or guaranties at any time held by Lender on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

Lender shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Lender or Lender enforces its security interests or exercise its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all liens, security interests, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. SECTION 8 MISCELLANEOUS 8.1 SET OFF. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender, each assignee of Lender's interest, and each participant is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to Borrower or its Subsidiaries) and any other property at any time held or owing by that Lender or assignee to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations then outstanding; PROVIDED HOWEVER, no participant shall exercise such right without the prior written consent of Lender. 8.2 EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS' FEES.
