GRAPHIC   Second Amended and Restated Variable Rate-Installment Note


AMOUNT   NOTE DATE   MATURITY DATE   TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
$2,800,000.00   February 2, 2004   February 28, 2005   72-0843540

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned promise(s) to pay to the order of COMERICA BANK ("Bank"), successor by merger with Comerica Bank-Texas, at any office of the Bank in the State of Texas, Two Million Eight Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars (U.S. $2,800,000) plus interest on the unpaid balance from the date of this Note at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (a) the Maximum Rate, as later defined, or (b) the Stated Rate, as later defined, until maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise. If on any day the Stated Rate shall exceed the Maximum Rate for that day, the rate of interest applicable to this Note shall be fixed at the Maximum Rate on that day and on each day thereafter until the total amount of interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of this Note equals the total amount of interest which would have accrued if there had been no Maximum Rate. Subject to the limitations hereinbelow set forth, interest shall be calculated for the actual number of days the principal is outstanding on the basis of a 360-day year if this Note evidences a business or commercial loan. The Stated Rate shall mean the Bank's "prime rate," which is the annual rate of interest so designated by the Bank and which is changed by the Bank from time to time, plus four percent (4%). Interest rate changes will be effective for interest computation purposes as and when the Maximum Rate or the Stated Rate, as applicable, changes.

Reference is made to that certain Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Loan Agreement dated as of November 26, 2002 executed between the undersigned and the Bank (as the same may be amended, restated or modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement"). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Loan Agreement. This Note is the Term Note referred to in the Loan Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (ii) after the earlier of acceleration or the Term Loan Termination Date, interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall accrue and be paid at the Default Rate.

Accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable under this Note on the thirty-first (31 st) day of each month (except for months having less than 31 days, in which case the last day of each such month shall be the due date for payment of accrued and unpaid interest), commencing February 28, 2004, and continuing on the same day of each successive month thereafter through and including the Term Loan Termination Date. In addition to (and not in lieu of) the required monthly installments of interest to be paid as set forth in this Note, the undersigned shall pay the following amounts, in each case, to be credited to the unpaid principal balance of this Note:

    (a)
    On or before February 28, 2004, an installment in the amount of $200,000 is due and payable; and

    (b)
    Commencing March 31, 2004, and on the 31 st day of each succeeding month thereafter (except for months having less than 31 days, in which case the last day of each such month shall be the due date for payment of installments of principal), equal principal installments in the amount of $100,000 each are due and payable; and

    (c)
    Commencing May 15, 2004 (for the Borrower's fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2004), and continuing on August 15, 2004 (for the Borrower's fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2004), November 15, 2004 (for the Borrower's fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2004), and February 15, 2005 (for the Borrower's fiscal year ending December 31, 2004) there is due and payable an amount equal to twenty five percent (25%) of "cash provided by operating activities" (as reported to Bank pursuant to Section 9.1.2 of the Loan Agreement) for the Borrower's fiscal quarter end immediately preceding the date such payment is due as previously set forth in this sentence. For purposes of this required principal payment, the following shall apply:

    (i)
    cash flow will be determined on a consolidated basis; and

    (ii)
    at each payment date, the required 25% payment will be based upon cumulative (year-to-date) cash flow as of the end of the Borrower's fiscal quarter to which such payment relates, but such payment will be net of any prior payments made under this paragraph (c) for 2004; and

    (iii)
    the principal payments required by this clause (c) are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the principal installments required by clause (b) above; and

    (d)
    The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is due and payable in full on February 28, 2005 (the Term Loan Termination Date).

The term "Maximum Rate," as used herein, shall mean at the particular time in question the maximum nonusurious rate of interest which, under applicable law, may then be charged on this Note. If such maximum rate of interest changes after the date hereof, the Maximum Rate shall be automatically increased or decreased, as the case may be, without notice to the undersigned from time to time as of the effective date of each change in such maximum rate.

If this Note or any installment under this Note shall become payable on a day other than a day on which the Bank is open for business, this payment may be extended to the next succeeding business day and interest shall be payable at the rate specified in this Note during this extension. Any payments of principal in excess of the installment payments required under this Note need not be accepted by the Bank (except as required under applicable law), but if accepted shall apply to the installments last falling due. A late installment charge equal to a reasonable amount not to exceed 5% of each late installment may be charged on any installment payment not received by the Bank within 10 calendar days after the installment due date, but acceptance of payment of this charge shall not waive any Default under this Note.

This Note shall bind the undersigned, and the undersigned's respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

The undersigned waive(s) presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of demand or intent to demand, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, and all other notices and agree(s) that no extension or indulgence to the undersigned (or any of them) or release, substitution or nonenforcement of any security, or release or substitution of any of the undersigned, any guarantor or any other party, whether with or without notice, shall affect the obligations of any of the undersigned. The undersigned waive(s) all defenses or right to discharge available under Section 3.605 of the Texas Uniform Commercial Code and waive(s) all other suretyship defenses or right to discharge. The undersigned agree(s) that the Bank has the right to sell, assign, or grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness, and that, in connection with this right, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the full extent allowable, the Bank may disclose all documents and information which the Bank now or later has relating to the undersigned or the Indebtedness. The undersigned agree(s) that the Bank may provide information relating to this Note or the Indebtedness or relating to the undersigned to the Bank's parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and service providers.

The undersigned agree(s) to reimburse the holder or owner of this Note upon demand for any and all costs and expenses (including without limit, court costs, legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and whether or not suit is instituted and, if suit is instituted, whether at the trial court level, appellate level, in a bankruptcy, probate or administrative proceeding or otherwise) incurred in collecting or attempting to collect this Note or incurred in any other matter or proceeding relating to this Note.

The undersigned acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that there are no contrary agreements, oral or written, establishing a term of this Note and agree(s) that the terms and conditions of this Note may not be amended, waived or modified except in a writing signed by an officer of the Bank expressly stating that the writing constitutes an amendment, waiver or modification of the terms of this Note. As used in this Note, the word "undersigned" means, individually and collectively, each maker, accommodation party, indorser and other party signing this Note in a similar capacity. If any provision of this Note is unenforceable in whole or part for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be effective. THIS NOTE IS MADE IN THE STATE OF TEXAS AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

This Note and all other documents, instruments and agreements evidencing, governing, securing, guaranteeing or otherwise relating to or executed pursuant to or in connection with this Note or the Indebtedness evidenced hereby (whether executed and delivered prior to, concurrently with or subsequent to this Note), as such documents may have been or may hereafter be amended from time to time (the "Loan Documents") are intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable usury laws. If any provision hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, neither the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance nor the remainder of the instrument in which such provision is contained shall be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of the holder hereof to at all times comply with the usury and other applicable laws now or hereafter governing the interest payable on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. If the applicable law is ever revised, repealed or judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or if Bank's exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of this Note, or if any prepayment by the undersigned or prepayment agreement results (or would, if complied with, result) in the undersigned having paid, contracted for or being charged for any interest in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express intent of the undersigned and Bank that this Note and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the extent necessary to prevent such result and all excess amounts theretofore collected by Bank shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note or, if fully paid, upon such other Indebtedness as shall then remaining outstanding (or, if this Note and all other Indebtedness have been paid in full, refunded to the undersigned), and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectable hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid, or agreed to be paid, by the undersigned for the use, forbearance, detention, taking, charging, receiving or reserving of the indebtedness of the undersigned to Bank under this Note or arising under or pursuant to the other Loan Documents shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the usury ceiling from time to time in effect and applicable to such indebtedness for so long as such indebtedness is outstanding. To the extent federal law permits Bank to contract for, charge or receive a greater amount of interest, Bank will rely on federal law instead of the Texas Finance Code, as supplemented by Texas Credit Title, for the purpose of determining the Maximum Rate. Additionally, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Bank may, at its option and from time to time, implement any other method of computing the Maximum Rate under the Texas Finance Code, as supplemented by Texas Credit Title, or under other applicable law, by giving notice, if required, to the undersigned as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Bank to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is in renewal, extension, and modification, but not in extinguishment or novation of the indebtedness evidenced by that certain Amended and Restated Variable Rate-Installment Note dated April 15, 2003 in the original principal amount of $5,000,000 executed by the undersigned and payable to the order of the Bank.

THE UNDERSIGNED AND THE BANK, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE, ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED. EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT, WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS NOTE OR THE INDEBTEDNESS.

THIS WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT (AS DEFINED BY SECTION 26.02 OF THE TEXAS BUSINESS AND COMMERCE CODE) REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
