ITEM 2.   ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

     On November 17, 1998 VDI Media (the "Company") consummated an Asset 
Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"), dated as of November 9, 1998, with DUBS 
Incorporated (the "Seller") and the Seller's shareholders.  Pursuant to the 
Agreement, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of the 
Seller, including all of the business, properties, assets and rights of any 
kind, whether tangible or intangible, real or personal, owned by the Seller 
or in which the Seller has any interest on the closing date.  The Seller 
provides technical media services (including the duplication and 
distribution of broadcast quality video tapes) primarily to owners, 
independent producers and distributors of television programming, feature 
films and other entertainment content, which business the Company intends to 
continue.

     The purchase price for this acquisition consisted of (i) a cash payment 
of approximately $6.9 million (of which $1.5 million was held back to secure 
any required post-closing purchase price adjustments), (ii) the assumption of 
the Seller's trade payables, and (iii) the repayment of approximately $4.0 
million of the Seller's long term debt.  In addition, the Company may be 
required to make a contingent earn-out payment (payable in shares of its 
common stock) if the acquired business achieves specified EBITDA targets, 
subject to certain limitations described in the Agreement (up to a maximum 
contingent payment of $3.3 million worth of common stock, valued generally as 
of the closing date).  The Company paid the cash and repaid indebtedness 
portion of the purchase price from the proceeds of its amended and restated 
credit agreement with Union Bank of California, N.A., as Agent, which it 
entered into on November 17,1998.

     The description of the Agreement contained herein, which does not 
purport to be complete, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 
Agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto.

certificate that complies with the requirements of California and other 
applicable California taxation laws with respect to the inventory 
constituting part of the Assets. Purchaser and the Company shall share 
equally any and all refunds or rebates of the Taxes or fees covered by this

                                 EARN-OUT STOCK
 
     SECTION 3.1  PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENT.

     (a)  ESTIMATED CLOSING BALANCE SHEET.  Schedule 3.1(a) contains an 
estimated balance sheet dated as of the Closing Date (the "Estimated Closing 
Balance Sheet") which sets forth, among other things, the current assets, 
current liabilities and outstanding long term debt of the Company as of such 
date.  The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance 
with GAAP and in a manner consistent with the presentation of the July 1998 
Balance Sheet. The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet does not reflect any 
provision for income Taxes (whether as an asset or a liability), and all 
Excluded Assets (and all related depreciation and reserves) and 


                                      16
<PAGE>

Excluded Liabilities (and related reserves) have been eliminated.  The Cash 
Payment shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.5 based upon the Net Working 
Capital and long-term debt shown on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet.

     (b)  AUDITED CLOSING BALANCE SHEET.

          (1)  Within 60 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause 
to be prepared and delivered to the Company an audited balance sheet of the 
Company as of the Closing Date in the manner set forth in Section 3.1(a) (the 
"Audited Closing Balance Sheet"), which shall set forth the Net Working 
Capital and long-term debt of the Company, if any, as of the Closing Date, 
and Purchaser's calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment.

          (2)  Following delivery of the Audited Closing Balance Sheet to the 
Company, the Company shall have a period of 15 days to present in writing to 
Purchaser any objections or disagreement with respect to the calculation of 
the Purchase Price Adjustment.  Such notice shall specify, in reasonable 
detail, the nature and extent of such disagreement. 

          (3)  If the Company and Purchaser are unable to resolve any such 
disagreement with respect to the calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment 
within 15 days after delivery by the Company of the notice referred to in 
Section 3.l(b)(2), the disagreement shall be submitted for final 
determination to a "Big Five" accounting firm mutually acceptable to the 
Company and Purchaser (the "Independent Accounting Firm").  The Independent 
Accounting Firm shall follow such procedures as it deems appropriate for 
obtaining the necessary information in considering the positions of the 
Company and Purchaser but shall not conduct an independent audit.  The 
Independent Accounting Firm shall render its determination on the matter 
within 30 days of its submission by the Company and Purchaser, and such 
determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and 
Sellers.  The closing balance sheet of the Company finally agreed upon by the 
parties shall be the Final Closing Balance Sheet (the "Final Closing Balance 
Sheet"); the parties intend to reach such agreement no later than four months 
after the Closing Date.

          (4)  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall 
be borne by the party whose asserted Purchase Price Adjustment is more at 
variance from the actual Purchase Price Adjustment ultimately determined by 
the Independent Accounting Firm.

     (c)  PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENT.  The Purchase Price shall be (i) 
increased or decreased, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the amount by which 
Net Working Capital reflected on the Final Closing Balance Sheet exceeds, or 
is less than, respectively, the Net Working Capital reflected on the 
Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, and (ii) increased or decreased, on a 
dollar-for-dollar basis, by the amount by which the outstanding long term 
debt repaid or assumed by Purchaser at Closing, is less than, or exceeds, 
respectively, the long term debt reflected on the Final Closing Balance Sheet 
(such adjustments, the "Purchase Price Adjustment").  If the Purchase Price 
Adjustment requires a payment to the Company, Purchaser shall make such 
payment in cash within ten days of the agreement as to the Final Closing 
Balance Sheet.  If the Purchase Price Adjustment requires a payment to the 
Purchaser, Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct such payment from the 
Holdback Amount.


                                      17
<PAGE>

     (d)  HOLDBACK AMOUNT.  In order to secure (but not to limit) the 
Company's payment obligations regarding any Purchase Price Adjustment and 
Sellers' indemnity obligations in this Agreement, Purchaser shall retain the 
Holdback Amount from the Cash Portion for the period described below.  
Purchaser shall release One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) of the Holdback 
Amount, less any Purchase Price Adjustment owed by the Company upon final 
determination of the Purchase Price Adjustment, within ten days of the 
acceptance of the Final Closing Balance Sheet.  Purchaser shall return the 
balance of the Holdback Amount, plus any interest earned on the Holdback 
Amount, less the amount of any indemnity claims asserted by Purchaser, if 
any, to the Company on the date one year from the Closing Date, unless a 
dispute then exists in which case Purchaser shall continue to hold the 
disputed funds until the dispute is resolved.  The Holdback Amount shall be 
maintained by Purchaser in one of its bank account and shall bear interest at 
the rate earned by Purchaser thereon; Purchaser shall not be required to 
segregate such amount from its other funds.

     SECTION 3.2  EARN-OUT STOCK.

     (a)  Purchaser shall calculate the EBITDA (as defined herein) of the 
Company as a division of Purchaser for the Earn-Out Period.  If the Company's 
EBITDA for such period is equal to or greater than $3,500,000 (the "Target"), 
Purchaser shall issue to the Company shares of its common stock having a 
market value equal to $3,300,000, with such value to be calculated based on 
the average closing price of Purchaser's common stock for the 30 days 
immediately preceding the Closing (such number of shares to be equitably 
adjusted in the event of any intervening stock dividend, stock split, 
recapitalization, capital reorganization, reverse stock split or similar 
transaction).  If the Company's EBITDA for the Earn-Out Period is less than 
the Target, Purchaser shall issue such fewer shares of Earn-Out Stock as 
detailed on Schedule 3.2(a)(1) hereto.  Calculation of EBITDA is set forth on 
Schedule 3.2(a)(2) hereto.  Purchaser agrees to operate the Company as a 
division of Purchaser in a manner in which EBITDA can reasonably be 
determined.  Purchaser shall maintain accurate books, records and documents 
reasonably necessary for the calculation of the Company's EBITDA.  The 
Company shall, upon request delivered to Purchaser in writing, have 
reasonable access during normal business hours to inspect such books and 
records at its cost. 

     (b)  Subject to Purchaser's right of offset set forth in Section 11.9, 
Purchaser shall issue to the Company the Earn-Out Stock, if earned, within 45 
business days after the last day of the last month of the Earn-Out Period.  
If Purchaser shall determine, after consultation with its independent 
auditors, that the minimum EBITDA set forth on Schedule 3.2(a)(2) was not 
achieved, it shall so notify the Company or the Shareholders on or before the 
45th business day after the last day of the last month of the Earn-Out 
Period, and include in such notification its calculation of EBITDA.  The 
Company shall have a period of 30 days thereafter to present in writing to 
Purchaser any objections or disagreement with respect to the calculation of 
EBITDA.  Such notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the nature and 
extent of such disagreement.

     (c)  If the Company and Purchaser are unable to resolve any such 
disagreement with respect to the calculation of EBITDA within ten days after 
delivery by the Company of the notice referred to above, the disagreement 
shall be submitted for final determination of the Independent Accounting 
Firm.  The Independent Accounting Firm shall follow such procedures as it 
deems appropriate for obtaining the necessary information in considering the 
positions of 


                                      18
<PAGE>

the Company and Purchaser but shall not conduct an independent 
audit.  The Independent Accounting Firm shall render its determination on the 
matter within thirty 30 days of its submission by the Company and Purchaser, 
and such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Purchaser 
and Sellers.

     (d)  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm with 
respect to a dispute of the Company's EBITDA during the Earn-Out Period shall 
be borne by the party whose asserted EBITDA calculation is more at variance 
from the actual EBITDA ultimately determined by the Independent Accounting 
Firm.

     SECTION 3.3  OPERATION OF BUSINESS AFTER CLOSING.  From and after the 
Closing Date until the end of the Earn-Out Period, Purchaser agrees to (a) 
operate, or cause to be operated, the Assets as a separate division 
unconsolidated with and apart from Purchaser's other businesses and assets or 
(b) to account on the books and records of Purchaser for all such Assets as a 
separate division unconsolidated with and apart from Purchaser's other 
businesses and assets and (c) to use commercially reasonable efforts to 
maximize the profitability of such separate division.

that an action, suit or proceeding has been, or in the future may be, made
alleging that products or services of the Company are or were defective in any
material respect.

     SECTION 5.28   STANDARDS AND CERTIFICATIONS.  Products previously designed,
manufactured, sold and leased by the Company met and had received at the time of
their design, manufacture and sale, and products currently designed,
manufactured, sold and leased by the Company meet and have received, all
material standards established by relevant standard-setting organizations and
all certifications from all relevant safety and standards testing and certifying
organizations, if any, as were or are, as the case may be, necessary for such
products to comply with all applicable fire, safety and similar codes and
regulations.

     SECTION 5.29   DISCLOSURE.  The information provided by Sellers in this
Agreement, including, without limitation, the Disclosure Schedule, and in any
other writing delivered pursuant hereto does not and will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or, omit to state a material fact required to be
stated herein or therein or necessary to make the statements and facts contained
herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not
false or misleading.  Copies of all documents heretofore or hereafter delivered
or made available by Sellers to Purchaser pursuant hereto were or will be
complete and accurate records of such documents.

     SECTION 5.30   EARN-OUT STOCK.  The Company is an "accredited investor" as
such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.  The Company understands that Purchaser has made no
representation regarding the Company other than as set forth herein.  The
Company has made such further investigation as it deems appropriate to evaluate
the merits and risks of receiving common stock in Purchaser.  The Company will
acquire, if earned, the Earn-Out Stock for its own account, for investment
purposes only, and not with a view towards the sale or other distribution
thereof (other than to a Shareholder who is also an "accredited investor").  The
Company agrees that there are restrictions under federal and state securities
laws on the transferability of the Earn-Out Stock that may be issued pursuant to
Section 3.2.  The Sellers agree and acknowledge that certificates for the 
Earn-Out Stock shall bear substantially the following legend:

     The Shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions
     on transferability and resale any may not be transferred or resold
     except as permitted 

                                      37

     under the Securities Act of 1933, pursuant to registration under said 
     Act or pursuant to another applicable exemption from the requirements 
     of said Act.

     SECTION 5.31   EMPLOYEES.  As of the Closing Date, the Company has 192
employees, all of whom work within a 75 mile radius of 1220 North Highland
Avenue.

     SECTION 5.32  ACKNOWLEDGMENT BY PURCHASER.  Without limiting the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, except
as expressly provided herein, Sellers make no representation or warranty
concerning the Assets or the Business, including as to the quality, condition,
merchantability, salability, obsolescence, working order or fitness for a
particular purpose thereof.  It is therefore expressly understood and agreed
that the Purchaser shall accept the condition of the Assets "as is, where is"
without any representation, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, as to
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or otherwise as to the
condition, size, extent, quantity, quality, type, value or status of such
Assets; provided, that the Purchaser may rely on the representations and
warranties of the Sellers set forth in Article V and the foregoing shall not
limit the agreements and covenants set forth herein.

     SECTION 7.2    NO SOLICITATION.

     (a)  NO SOLICITATION.  From the date hereof through the Closing or the 
earlier termination of this Agreement, each of the Sellers and their 
Representatives shall not, and shall cause each of their respective 
Representatives (including, without limitation, investment bankers, attorneys 
and accountants), not to, directly or indirectly, enter into, solicit, 
initiate or continue any discussions or negotiations with, or encourage or 
respond to any inquiries or proposals by, or participate in any negotiations 
with, or provide any information to, or otherwise cooperate in any other way 
with, any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group, other 
than Purchaser and its Representatives concerning, any sale of all or a 
portion of the Assets or the Business, or any merger, consolidation, 
liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving any Seller (each 
such transaction being referred to herein as a "Proposed Acquisition 
Transaction"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Sellers may disclose the transactions 
contemplated by this Agreement to customers of the Company in connection with 
Sellers' efforts to obtain the benefit 

                                      39

<PAGE>

of any Contract, Lease or Permit for Purchaser.  The parties agree that in 
the event the Company, Sellers or any individual Seller breaches its 
obligation under this Section 7.2, the Company shall immediately pay to 
Purchaser the sum of (a) Purchaser's expenses incurred in connection with the 
Transactions, and (b) $200,000; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such amount shall not 
exceed $300,000.  Each Seller hereby represents that it is not now engaged in 
discussions or negotiations with any party other than Purchaser with respect 
to any of the foregoing.  Each Seller agrees not to release any third party 
from, or waive any provision of, any confidentiality or standstill agreement 
to which such Seller is a party.

     (b)  NOTIFICATION.  Sellers shall immediately notify Purchaser (orally and
in writing) if any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated, any
inquiry or proposal is made, or any information is requested with respect to any
Proposed Acquisition Transaction.

     SECTION 7.3    NOTIFICATION OF CERTAIN MATTERS.  From the date hereof
through the Closing, Sellers and Purchaser shall give prompt notice to the other
of (i) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event which occurrence or
failure would be likely to cause any representation or warranty contained in
this Agreement or in any exhibit or schedule hereto to be untrue or inaccurate
in any respect and (ii) any failure by it to comply with or satisfy any
covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under
this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
disclosure shall not be deemed to cure any breach of a representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement or to satisfy any condition.

     SECTION 7.4    INVESTIGATION BY PURCHASER.  From the date hereof through
the Closing Date each Seller shall, and shall cause any and all of its
respective employees and agents to, afford the Representatives of Purchaser and
its Affiliates complete access at all reasonable times to the Assets for the
purpose of inspecting the same, and to the employees, agents, attorneys,
accountants, properties, Books and Records, Contracts and Leases of the Company,
and shall furnish Purchaser and its Representatives all financial, operating and

all material respects, the financial condition of the Company, (ii) be in

     SECTION 7.6    EMPLOYMENT MATTERS.  

     (a)  Purchaser and Vincent Lyons shall enter into an Employment 
Agreement, to be effective as of the Closing, in substantially the form of 
Exhibit A hereto.  Purchaser shall not be required to hire or offer 
employment to any other employee of the Company other than the persons

Schedule 2.4 who accept employment with Purchaser are the "Transferred 
Employees" for the purposes of this Agreement.

                                      42

<PAGE>

     (b)  Effective as of the Closing (or the date an employee becomes a
Transferred Employee, if later), all Transferred Employees shall cease to
participate in, or accrue benefits under, any of the Company's Plans, and the
Company shall be solely responsible for all of its Plans and all obligations and
liabilities thereunder.  Purchaser shall not assume any Plan of the Company or
any obligation or liability thereunder, it being understood that Purchaser will
extend to all Transferred Employees coverage under its employee benefit plans on
the same basis and to the same extent and on the same terms as such coverage is
offered to Purchaser's new employees.  The Company shall be responsible for
(i) terminating all of its employees, and (except as provided elsewhere herein)
shall be responsible for any and all obligations and liabilities arising in
connection with the terminations of the Excluded Employees, including without
limitation, any severance or other termination pay, retirement and welfare
benefits, (ii) providing the appropriate notices to the employees of the
Business pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Title I of ERISA,
(iii) all liabilities, including without limitation, the cost of extended
insurance coverage, for any employee of the Company not actively employed by the
Company on the Closing Date until such time, if ever, that such employee returns
to active employment and is employed by Purchaser.

     (c)  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon any Transferred
Employee (other than Vincent Lyons whose rights shall be set forth in the
Employment Agreement) any right with respect to continuance of employment by
Purchaser, nor shall anything herein interfere with the right of Purchaser to
terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee at any time, with or
without cause, or restrict Purchaser in the exercise of its independent business
judgment in modifying any of the terms and conditions of the employment of the
Transferred Employees after the Closing Date.

     (d)  No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party
beneficiary rights in any Transferred Employee, any beneficiary or dependents
thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to
the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be
provided to any Transferred Employee by Purchaser or under any benefit plan
which Purchaser may maintain.  

     (e)  Prior to and until Closing, each Shareholder employee of the Company
shall receive his or her salary and hospitalization, medical, surgical, dental,
life insurance and any other welfare and benefits plans and programs, comparable
to what such Shareholder, as an employee of the Company, is receiving as of the
date of this Agreement.

     SECTION 7.7    COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.  At
the Closing, Purchaser shall acquire hereunder, and thereafter Purchaser or its
designee shall have the right and authority to collect for Purchaser's or its
designee's account, all receivables, letters of credit and other items which
constitute a part of the Assets, and each Seller shall within 48 hours after
receipt of any payment in respect of any of the foregoing, properly endorse and
deliver to Purchaser any letters of credit, documents, cash or checks received
on account of or otherwise relating to any such receivables, letters of credit
or other items related to the Company or the Business.  Each Seller shall
promptly transfer or deliver to Purchaser or its designee any cash or other
property that such Seller may receive in respect of any deposit, prepaid
expense, claim, contract, license, lease, commitment, sales order, purchase
order, letter of credit or receivable of any character, or any other item,
constituting a part of the Assets.

                                      43

<PAGE>

     SECTION 7.8    BOOKS AND RECORDS; TAX MATTERS.

     (a)  BOOKS AND RECORDS.  Purchaser shall retain all Books and Records in
the possession of Purchaser after the Closing Date relating to the operation of
the Facilities and the Business prior to the Closing in accordance with all
applicable records retention Regulations, including without limitation, all
Environment Laws and occupational health and safety laws and regulations.  Each
party agrees that it shall cooperate with and make available to the other party,
during normal business hours, all Books and Records, information and employees
(without substantial disruption of employment) retained and remaining in
existence after the Closing which are necessary or useful in connection with any
tax, environmental or occupational health and safety inquiry, audit,
investigation or dispute, any litigation or investigation or any other matter
requiring any such Books and Records, information or employees for any
reasonable business purpose.  The party requesting any such Books and Records,
information or employees shall bear all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses
(including without limitation attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in connection
with providing such Books and Records, information or employees.  All
information received pursuant to this Section 7.8(a) shall be treated as
confidential and not disclosed to any person or entity other than the
Representatives of Sellers or Purchaser, as the case may be, who need to know
such information in connection with the proceedings contemplated by this
Section 7.8(a).

     (b)  COOPERATION AND RECORDS RETENTION.  Sellers and Purchaser shall (i)
each provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by
any of them in connection with the preparation of any return, audit, or other
examination by any taxing authority or judicial or administrative proceedings
relating to Liability for Taxes in connection with the Assets or the Business,
(ii) each retain and provide the other with any records or other information
that may be relevant to such return, audit or examination, proceeding or
determination, and (iii) each provide the other with any final determination of
any such audit or examination, proceeding, or determination that affects any
amount required to be shown on any tax return of the other for any period. 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser and each Seller
shall each retain, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any
extensions) have expired, copies of all tax returns, supporting work schedules,
and other records or information that may be relevant to such returns for all
tax periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date and shall
not destroy or otherwise dispose of any such records without first providing the
other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and copy the same.

     SECTION 7.9    BULK SALES.  It may not be practicable to comply or attempt
to comply with the procedures of the "Bulk Sales Act" or similar law of any or
all of the states in which the Assets are situated or of any other state which
may be asserted to be applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby. 
Accordingly, to induce Purchaser to waive any requirements for compliance with
any or all of such laws, each Seller hereby agrees that the indemnity provisions
of Section 11.2 hereof shall apply to any Damages of Purchaser or any
institution providing financing to Purchaser arising out of or resulting from
the failure of any Seller or Purchaser to comply with any such laws.

     SECTION 7.10   CONFIDENTIALITY. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement
between the Company and Purchaser dated April 22, 1998 shall continue to remain
in full force and effect during the period between the date hereof and the
Closing Date, unless earlier terminated.

                                       44

<PAGE>

     SECTION 7.11   PACIFIC CENTURY BANK GUARANTY.  At the Closing, the
indebtedness owed by the Company to Pacific Century Bank, N.A., which the
Company represents to be approximately $4.0 million as of the date hereof, will
be fully paid by Purchaser.  As soon as practicable after the Closing, Purchaser
shall make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the release of the
guarantees of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Lyons with respect to such loan.

     SECTION 7.12   AMENDMENT TO LEASE. Purchaser agrees that it shall not amend
the Leases in a manner adverse to the Shareholders or Mr. and Mrs. George Cooney
without the prior consent of the Shareholders and Mr. and Mrs. Cooney, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

     SECTION 7.14   EMPLOYEE RETENTION.  Purchaser shall offer employment to 
commence as of the Closing Date to each Transferred Employee at a salary and 
other terms commensurate with such person's corresponding position at 
Purchaser. Purchaser assumes all obligations and liabilities, if any, under 
the WARN Act relating to or arising out of the termination by Purchaser of 
the Transferred Employees (or any employee of Purchaser) following the 
Closing Date (including liabilities owed to Excluded Employees as a result of 
any such terminations by Purchaser).

     SECTION 7.15   PLANS.  Effective as of the Closing Date, all Transferred
Employees shall cease accruing any benefits under any Plan of the Company, and
the Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all such action, if any, as may be
necessary or appropriate to effect such cessation of participation.  Effective
as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall offer the Transferred Employees coverage
under the Purchaser's employee benefit plans and shall provide that any expenses
incurred on or after the Closing Date by a Transferred Employee or his covered
dependents with respect to events or occurrences arising after the Closing shall
be taken into account under such employee benefit plans for purposes of
satisfying applicable deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket
provisions.  

     SECTION 7.16   VACATION, HOLIDAY, SICK AND SEVERANCE PAY.  As of the
Closing Date, Purchaser shall integrate the Transferred Employees into its
vacation, holiday and sick pay policies.  The Company shall be responsible for
all the Company's obligations with respect to sick, vacation, holiday or
severance pay for (i) any Excluded Employee, and (ii) any Transferred Employee
for any period ending prior to the Closing Date.

     SECTION 7.17   REQUIRED MODIFICATIONS OR REPLACEMENTS OF PRODUCTS.  The
provisions of this Section shall govern the responsibilities of Purchaser and
the Company regarding the Company's warranty obligations with respect to
products delivered or services provided prior to the Closing Date:
     (a)  Purchaser shall advise the Company promptly after becoming aware of
any required modifications (the "Required Modifications") to the products
shipped or services provided by the Business prior to the Closing Date to the
extent Purchaser intends to assert any claim under Article XI hereof in respect
of such products.

     (b)  Purchaser shall make any Required Modifications to products shipped or
services provided by the Business prior to the Closing Date which are necessary
or advisable, in the reasonable discretion of the Company and at the Company's
expense.  If the cost to the 

                                      45
<PAGE>

Company of implementing any such Required Modification exceeds the cost to 
the Company of replacing such products, Purchaser shall replace such products 
at the Company's expense.  The obligation of Purchaser hereunder shall 
include, but not be limited to, such actions as the Company may reasonably 
request for (i) the notification of customer and other third parties in 
possession of the applicable products, (ii) the shipping of such products, if 
necessary, to and from Purchaser's facilities, (iii) the production of 
replacement products, parts or supplies necessary for the implementation of 
the Required Modification, (iv) the installation, modification or replacement 
of the product by personnel of Purchaser, either at the customer's location 
or at Purchaser's facilities, as appropriate, and (v) recordkeeping and 
reports with respect to such Required Modifications, to the extent required 
by law or reasonably requested by the Company.

     (c)  The Company shall reimburse Purchaser for materials, labor and
overhead incurred by Purchaser in installing or implementing any Required
Modification or in producing any replacement products, parts or supplies,
together with all out-of-pocket shipping, postage and printing costs incurred by
Purchaser in connection therewith.
     
     (d)  The foregoing provisions and Purchaser's compliance or attempted
compliance therewith shall in no way diminish or otherwise alter Sellers'
indemnity obligations set forth elsewhere herein.

     SECTION 7.18   ACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN CONTRACTS.  Purchaser
acknowledges that the Company has not obtained the consent of the other
contracting party to the Contracts specified in Schedule 5.16 which require such
party's consent in order for the contract to be assigned to Purchaser. 
Purchaser acknowledges that the Transactions will be consummated without such
consents in part to accommodate the parties' desired closing schedule.  With
respect to each such Contract, after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, to the
extent necessary, continue to deal with the other contracting parties to such
Contracts as the prime contracting party, and the Company shall obtain the
consent of all required parties to the assignment of such Contracts.  Such
Contracts shall be deemed assigned by the Company to Purchaser after receipt of
such consent.  Any Contract as to which consent is obtained after the Closing
Date shall thereupon comprise an Assigned Contract.  Notwithstanding the absence
of any such consent, Purchaser shall be entitled to the benefits of such
Contract accruing after the Closing Date to the extent that the Company may
provide Purchaser with such benefits without violating the terms of such
Contract; and to the extent such benefits are so provided, Purchaser agrees to
perform all of the obligations of the Company to be performed under such
Contract after the Closing Date, such obligations to comprise Assumed
Liabilities hereunder.  To the extent such benefits are not so provided or such

liabilities to comprise Excluded Liabilities hereunder.

Upon conclusion of such inventory, Purchaser and Mr. Lyons shall agree upon a
listing of all tapes on hand as of the Closing, which itemization shall be
conclusively presumed accurate thereafter for all purposes of this Agreement.

to the Assets are effective to do so (other than the Assignment of Business Name
(to the extent such purports to transfer rights not held by the Company)),
subject to the Permitted Encumbrances, except to the extent a third party
consent is required in connection with a particular Asset which third party

Purchaser may not be effective as to that particular Asset unless and until such
consent is obtained.

certificates to evidence compliance with the conditions set forth in this
Article IX as may be requested by Purchaser.

necessary) and delivered to Purchaser all documents necessary to release the
Assets from all Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances, which documents

     SECTION 9.8    PERMITS.  Purchaser shall have obtained or been granted the
right to use all Permits required to operate the Business.

in form and content acceptable to Purchaser.

     SECTION 9.11   NONFOREIGN AFFIDAVIT.  Each Seller shall furnish Purchaser

     SECTION 10.1   RISK OF LOSS.  From the date hereof through and including
the Closing Date, all risk of loss or damage to the Assets shall be borne by the
Company, and thereafter shall be borne by Purchaser.  If any material portion of
the Assets is destroyed or damaged by fire or any other cause on or prior to the
Closing Date, other than use, wear or loss in the ordinary course of business,
Sellers shall give written notice to Purchaser as soon as practicable after, but
in any event within five (5) calendar days of, discovery of such damage or
destruction, which notice shall set forth in detail the nature of such damage or
destruction, the amount of insurance, if any, covering such Assets and the
amount, if any, which Sellers are otherwise entitled to receive as a
consequence.  Prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall have the option, which shall
be exercised by written notice to Sellers within ten (10) calendar days after
receipt of Sellers' notice or if there is not ten (10) calendar days prior to
the Closing Date, as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date, of (i)
accepting such Assets in their destroyed or damaged condition in which event
Purchaser shall be entitled to the proceeds of any insurance or other proceeds
payable with respect to such loss and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the
amount, if any, mutually agreed upon between the parties, (ii) excluding such
Assets from this Agreement, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced
by the amount allocated to such Assets, as mutually agreed between the parties
or (iii) terminating this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.1.  If
Purchaser accepts such Assets, then after the Closing, any insurance or other
proceeds shall belong, and shall be assigned to, Purchaser without any reduction
in the Purchase Price; otherwise, such insurance proceeds shall belong to the
Company.

                               INDEMNIFICATION

     SECTION 11.1   SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS.  
The representations and warranties made by Sellers in Article V of this 
Agreement and any schedule or exhibit attached hereto, respectively, shall 
survive the date hereof for a period of two years from the Closing Date.  
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, including, without 
limitation, this Section 11.1, any claims with respect to representations and 
warranties made by Sellers in this Agreement shall survive and continue 
following the expiration of the survival period stated above (i) if such 
claim is submitted in writing to the Company prior to the end of the survival 
period stated in this Section 11.1 and identified as a claim for 
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (in which case the claim shall 
survive indefinitely) or (ii) if such claim ultimately determined to be based 
upon fraud or willful breach or misrepresentation by any Seller, in which 
event such claims shall survive for a two year period following its discovery 
by Purchaser.

     SECTION 11.2   INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLERS.  Each Seller shall, jointly 
and severally, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and each of Purchaser's 
Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents and 
Representatives (collectively, the "Affiliated Parties") in respect of any 
and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, declines in value of the 
assets, penalties, and interest, including, without limitation, reasonable 
attorneys', accountants' and consultants' fees and other costs and expenses 
(collectively, "Damages"), incurred by Purchaser or Purchaser's Affiliated 
Parties, together with interest on cash disbursements in connection 
therewith, at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate then in effect, from the 
date such cash disbursements were made by Purchaser or its Affiliated Parties 
until paid by such Seller, in connection with, or resulting from, any or all 
of the following:

     (a)  Any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by 
such Seller in Article V of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or any 
Disclosure Schedule;

     (b)  Any failure to perform or comply with any covenant, agreement or 
obligation of such Seller contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary 
Agreements;

     (c)  Any injury to persons or death or property damage resulting from or 
contributed to by any products designed, manufactured, sold or leased by the 
Company or any services performed by any of the Sellers if the accident, 
incident or occurrence giving rise to such claim, action, lawsuit or 
proceeding occurred prior to the Closing Date; 

     (d)  With respect to any claim arising out of the failure of any Seller 
to comply with the bulk transfer or bulk sales laws of any jurisdiction in 
accordance with Section 7.9 (other than by reason of Purchaser's failure to 
pay an Assumed Liability); and

     (e)  Except as provided elsewhere herein, Liabilities of the Sellers 
resulting from events occurring prior to the Closing Date, other than a 
liability or obligation which is included in the Assumed Liabilities.


                                    51

<PAGE>

Sellers' obligations set forth in this Section shall not apply to any Damages 
that arise from or are related to (i) any willful misconduct or gross 
negligence by Purchaser or its Affiliated Parties, or (ii) any Action 
asserted between the Purchaser and/or Purchaser's Affiliated Parties.  
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, Vincent Lyons' and 
Barbara Lyons' indemnification obligations under this Agreement shall not 
exceed Six Million Nine Hundred Sixty Three Thousand Dollars ($6,963,000).

     SECTION 11.3   INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLERS FOR TAX LIABILITIES.  In 
addition to, and not by way of limitation on, the indemnities set forth in 
Section 11.2, except as provided in Section 2.6 Sellers shall, jointly and 
severally, indemnify and hold harmless on an after-tax basis Purchaser 
against all unpaid Taxes of the Company for all taxable periods ending before 
the Closing Date or otherwise attributable to the operations, transactions, 
assets, or income of the Company or its predecessors prior to the Closing 
Date or otherwise arising from the consummation of the Transactions as of the 
date hereof (but excluding any income or franchise or similar Taxes imposed 
on Purchaser as a result of the consummation of the Transactions, including 
the transfer of the Earn-Out Stock to the Company), together with any 
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys', accountants' 
and consultants' fees and other expenses) incurred in connection with the 
contesting, collection or assessment of such Taxes, and together with 
interest at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate then in effect.

     SECTION 11.4   INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLERS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.  
For a period of five years, in addition to, and not by way of limitation on, 
the indemnities set forth in Section 11.2, Sellers shall, jointly and 
severally, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and Purchaser's Affiliated 
Parties in respect of any and all Damages incurred by Purchaser or 
Purchaser's Affiliated Parties, together with interest on cash disbursements 
in connection therewith, at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate then in 
effect, from the date such cash disbursements were made by Purchaser or any 
of Purchaser's Affiliated Parties until paid by Sellers, in connection with, 
or resulting from, any Environmental Liabilities for Pre-Closing Matters 
including, without limitation, any of the matters described on Schedule 5.12, 
regardless of the diligence performed or investigation made by Purchaser or 
its Representatives with respect thereto. 

     SECTION 11.5   INDEMNIFICATION BY PURCHASER.  Purchaser shall indemnify 
and hold harmless the Company, each Seller and each of the Company's 
employees, directors, officers, attorneys, agents and Representatives 
(collectively, the "Company Indemnitees") in respect of any and all Damages 
incurred by the Company Indemnitees, together with interest on cash 
disbursements in connection therewith, at an annual rate equal to the Prime 
Rate then in effect, from the date that such cash disbursements were made by 
any Company Indemnitee until paid by Purchaser, in connection with, or 
resulting from, any or all of the following:

     (a)  Any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in 
Article VI of this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements;

     (b)  Any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Purchaser 
contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; 


                                     52

<PAGE>

     (c)  Except as provided elsewhere herein, Liabilities arising in 
relation to the Business, the Assets or the Assumed Liabilities resulting 
from events occurring on or after the Closing Date; and

     (d)  Any injury to persons or death or property damage resulting from or 
contributed to by any products designed, manufactured, sold or leased by 
Purchaser or any services performed by Purchaser if the accident, incident or 
occurrence giving rise to such claim, action, lawsuit or proceeding occurred 
on or after the Closing Date. 

Purchaser's obligations set forth in this Section shall not apply to any 
Damages that arise from or are related to any willful misconduct or gross 
negligence by any Seller or Company Indemnitee.

     SECTION 11.6   CLAIMS FOR INDEMNIFICATION.  Whenever any claim shall 
arise for indemnification under this Agreement, the party entitled to 
indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly notify the party 
obligated to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") of the claim 
and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim; PROVIDED, 
HOWEVER, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not 
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation hereunder to the extent such 
failure does not materially prejudice the Indemnifying Party.  In the event 
of any claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection 
with any claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the notice to the 
Indemnifying Party shall specify, if known, the amount or an estimate of the 
amount of the liability arising therefrom.  The amount of any Damages for 
which indemnification is provided under this Article XI shall be net of any 
amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under any agreement with any third 
party or any insurance policy with respect to such Damages.  If the 
Indemnifying Party makes any payment under this Article XI in respect of any 
Damages, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such 
payment, to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any insurer or third 
party with respect to such Damages.  The Indemnified Party shall execute any 
required documents or instruments or take any other similar steps necessary 
to effectuate such subrogation.

     SECTION 11.7   DEFENSE OF CLAIMS.  In connection with any claim giving rise
to indemnity under this Agreement resulting from or arising out of any claim or
legal proceeding by a person who is not a party to this Agreement, the
Indemnifying Party at its sole cost and expense and with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party may, upon written notice to the
Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding if
(i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges to the Indemnified Party in writing,
within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party, its
obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all elements of
such claim based upon the facts then reasonably known to such Indemnifying
Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will
have the financial resources to defend against such third-party claims and
fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the third-party claim
involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable
relief, and (iv) settlement or an adverse judgment of the third-party claim is
not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, likely to establish a
pattern or practice adverse to the continuing business interests of the
Indemnified Party.  The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in
(but not control) the defense of any such


                                    53
<PAGE>

action, with its counsel and at its own expense; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if 
there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that 
conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party, or if the 
Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend 
diligently the claim after receiving notice from the Indemnified Party that 
it believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to do so, the Indemnified Party 
may assume the defense of such claim; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the Indemnified 
Party may not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the 
Indemnifying Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.  If the 
Indemnified Party assumes the defense of the claim pursuant to this Section 
11.7, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for the 
reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party and 
the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) 
the defense of such claim, with its counsel and at its own expense.  If the 
Indemnifying Party thereafter seeks to question the manner in which the 
Indemnified Party defended such third party claim or the amount or nature of 
any such settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the burden to prove by 
a preponderance of the evidence that the Indemnified Party did not defend or 
settle such third party claim in a reasonably prudent manner.  The parties 
agree to render, without compensation, to each other such assistance as they 
may reasonably require of each other in order to insure the proper and 
adequate defense of any action, suit or proceeding, whether or not subject to 
indemnification hereunder.  If the indemnification provided for in this 
Article XI is for any reason unenforceable, the party against whom 
indemnification was sought agrees to contribute to the claims for which such 
indemnification is unenforceable in such proportion as is appropriate to 
reflect the relative fault of such party, on the one hand, and the 
Indemnified Party, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable 
considerations.

     SECTION 11.8   MANNER OF INDEMNIFICATION.  All indemnification payments 
hereunder shall be effected by payment of cash or delivery of a certified or 
official bank check in the amount of the indemnification liability.

     SECTION 11.9 SET OFF.  To the extent that Purchaser or Purchaser's 
Affiliated Parties suffer any Damages for which Sellers are liable to 
Purchaser or Purchaser's Affiliated Parties under the provisions of Section 
11.2, 11.3 or 11.4, Purchaser shall have the right to set-off such Damages 
from the Holdback or the Earn-Out Stock.  The parties acknowledge that such 
reduction shall not be the exclusive method of receiving indemnification from 
Sellers pursuant to this Article XI.


                                 ARTICLE XII

which results or would result in the failure of a condition set forth in 
Article VIII to be satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date, PROVIDED that,

twenty (20) calendar days) to cure such failure.

     (b)  IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION.  In the event of termination of this 
Agreement:

               (1)  Each party shall redeliver all documents, work papers and

hereby, whether so obtained before or after the execution hereof, to the 
party furnishing the same (and shall destroy all copies in their possession); 
and

               (2)  No party hereto shall have any Liability to any other 
party to this Agreement, except as stated in subsections (i) and (ii) of this 
Section 12.1(b) and Sellers' obligations under Section 7.2, except for any 
willful breach of this Agreement occurring prior to the termination of this

not later than 10:00 A.M., Los Angeles time, each Revolving Loan Lender shall 
make available to the Agent at its

                                   -19-

<PAGE>

office specified in Section 9.2 the amount of such Revolving Loan Lender's 
pro rata share of the aggregate borrowing amount (as determined in accordance 
with the second paragraph of Section 2.1(a)) in immediately available funds.  
The Agent may, in the absence of notification from any Revolving Loan Lender 
that such Revolving Loan Lender has not made its pro rata share available to 
the Agent, on such date, credit the account of the Borrower on the books of 
such office of the Agent with the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans.

     (e)  Neither the Agent nor any Revolving Loan Lender shall be 
responsible for the obligation or Available Revolving Loan Commitment of any 
other Revolving Loan Lender hereunder, nor will the failure of any Revolving 
Loan Lender to comply with the terms of this Agreement relieve any other 
Revolving Loan Lender or the Borrower of their obligations under this 
Agreement and the Revolving Notes.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve 
any Revolving Loan Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments 
hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any 
Revolving Loan Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Loan 
Lender hereunder.

     (f)  The Revolving Loan Commitment of each Revolving Loan Lender and the 
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall terminate on the Revolving Loan 
Commitment Expiration Date.  All outstanding Revolving Loans shall be due and 
payable on the Revolving Loan Commitment Expiration Date.

     2.2 TERM LOANS; TERM LOAN COMMITMENT. (a)  Subject to the terms and 
conditions hereof, each Lender having a Term Loan Commitment severally agrees 
to make a term loan (each, a "TERM LOAN" and, collectively, the "TERM LOANS") 
to the Borrower on the Restatement Date in a principal amount equal to the 
amount of the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender.

     (b)  Subject to Sections 2.10 and 2.12, the Term Loans may from time to 
time be (i) LIBOR Loans, (ii) Reference Rate Loans or (iii) a combination 
thereof, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Agent in 
accordance with either Section 2.2(e) or 2.5.  Each Term Loan Lender may make 
or maintain its Term Loan to the Borrower by or through any Applicable 
Lending Office.

     (c)  The Term Loan made by each Term Loan Lender to the Borrower shall 
be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower, substantially in the form 
of Exhibit A-2 (a "TERM NOTE"), with appropriate insertions therein as to 
payee, date and principal amount, payable to the order of such Term Loan 
Lender and representing the obligations of the Borrower to pay the aggregate 
unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan made by such Term Loan Lender to the 
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(a), with interest thereon as prescribed in 
Sections 2.8 and 2.9.  Each Term Loan Lender is hereby authorized (but not 
required) to record the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of 
principal of its Term Loan made to the Borrower, each continuation thereof, 
each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type and, in the case 
of LIBOR Loans, the length of each Interest Period with respect thereto, in 
the books and 

                                     -20-
<PAGE>

records of such Term Loan Lender, and any such recordation shall constitute 
PRIMA FACIE evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded.  The 
failure of any Term Loan Lender to make any such recordation or notation in 
the books and records of the Term Loan Lender (or any error in such 
recordation or notation) shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower 
hereunder or under the Term Notes.  Each Term Note shall (i) be dated the 
Restatement Date, (ii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with 
Sections 2.8 and 2.9 and (iii) be stated to be payable in installments of 
principal in accordance with, and subject to the provisions of, Section 
2.2(d).

     (d)  On each Term Loan Reduction Date, the Borrower shall repay the 
principal of the Term Notes in an aggregate amount equal to $483,333.33; 
PROVIDED, that the final installment paid shall be in an amount equal to all 
amounts owed by the Borrower on the Term Notes.

All outstanding Term Loans shall be due and payable, to the extent not 
previously paid in accordance with the terms hereof, on the Term Loan 
Maturity Date.  The aggregate amount payable to any Term Loan Lender on any 
Term Loan Reduction Date shall be determined in accordance with the 
provisions of Section 2.11.

     (e)  The Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice, 
substantially in the form of a Borrowing Notice (which Borrowing Notice must 
be received by the Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., Los Angeles time, one Business 
Day prior to the Restatement Date) requesting that the Term Loan Lenders make 
the Term Loans on the Restatement Date.  Upon receipt of such Borrowing 
Notice the Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender thereof.  Not 
later than 10:00 A.M., Los Angeles time, on the Restatement Date each Term 
Loan Lender shall make available to the Agent at its office specified in 
Section 9.2 the amount of such Term Loan Lender's Term Loan Commitment in 
immediately available funds.  The Agent may, in the absence of notification 
from any Term Loan Lender that such Term Loan Lender has not made its pro 
rata share available to the Agent, on such date, credit the account of the 
Borrower on the books of such office of the Agent with the aggregate Term 
Loans.

     (f)  Neither the Agent nor any Term Loan Lender shall be responsible for 
the obligations or Term Loan Commitment of any other Term Loan Lender 
hereunder, nor will the failure of any Term Loan Lender to comply with the 
terms of this Agreement relieve any other Term Loan Lender or the Borrower of 
their obligations under this Agreement and the Term Notes.  Nothing herein 
shall be deemed to relieve any Term Loan Lender from its obligation to 
fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the 
Borrower may have against any Term Loan Lender as a result of any default by 
such Term Loan Lender hereunder.

     2.3  ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT. (a)  The Borrower shall be entitled to
request the issuance of Letters of Credit from time to time from and including
the Restatement Date to but excluding the date which is two Business Days prior
to the Revolving Loan Commitment Expiration Date, by giving the Agent a Letter
of Credit Request at least three Business Days before the requested date of
issuance of such Letter of Credit

                                    -21-
<PAGE>

(which shall be a Business Day).  Any Letter of Credit Request received by 
the Agent later than 10:00 a.m., Los Angeles time, shall be deemed to have 
been received on the next Business Day.  Each Letter of Credit Request shall 
be made in writing, shall be signed by a Responsible Officer, shall be 
irrevocable and shall be effective upon receipt by the Agent. Provided that a 
valid Letter of Credit Request has been received by the Agent and upon 
fulfillment of the other applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.2, the 
Agent will issue the requested Letter of Credit from its office specified in 
Section 9.2.  No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date later than 
two Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Expiration Date.

     (b)  Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Agent 
shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Loan Lender, 
and each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to have purchased and received 
from the Agent, in each case irrevocably and without any further action by 
any party, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit, 
each drawing thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this 
Agreement in respect thereof in an amount equal to the product of (i) such 
Revolving Loan Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage and (ii) the 
maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (assuming 
compliance with all conditions to drawing).  The Agent shall promptly advise 
each Revolving Loan Lender of the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the 
Letter of Credit Amount of such Letter of Credit, any change in the face 
amount or expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the cancellation or other 
termination of such Letter of Credit and any drawing under such Letter of 
Credit.

     (c)  The payment by the Agent of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit
shall first be made from any Cash Collateral Deposit held by the Agent with
respect to such Letter of Credit.  After any such Cash Collateral Deposit has
been applied, the payment by the Agent of a draft drawn under any Letter of
Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by the
Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder (in such capacity, the
"DRAWING LENDER") of a Reference Rate Loan in the amount of such payment (but
without any requirement of compliance with the conditions set forth in Section
4.2).  In the event that any such Loan by the Drawing Lender resulting from a
drawing under any Letter of Credit is not repaid by the Borrower by 12:00 noon,
Los Angeles time, on the day of payment of such drawing, the Agent shall
promptly notify each other Revolving Loan Lender.  Each Revolving Loan Lender
shall, on the day of such notification (or if such notification is not given by
3:00 p.m., Los Angeles time, on such day, then on the next succeeding Business
Day), make a Reference Rate Loan, which shall be used to repay the applicable
portion of the Reference Rate Loan of the Drawing Lender with respect to such
Letter of Credit drawing, in an amount equal to the amount of such Revolving
Loan Lender's participation in such drawing for application to repay the Drawing
Lender (but without any requirement of compliance with the applicable conditions
set forth in Section 4.2) and shall deliver to the Agent for the account of the
Drawing Lender, on the day of such notification (or if such notification is not
given by 3:00 p.m., Los Angeles time, on such day, then on the next succeeding
Business Day) and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Reference
Rate Loan.  In the event that any Revolving Loan Lender

                                    -22-

<PAGE>

fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the Drawing Lender 
the amount of such Reference Rate Loan, the Drawing Lender shall be entitled 
to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender together 
with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day such 
amount remains outstanding.

     (d)  The obligations of the Borrower with respect to any Letter of 
Credit, any Letter of Credit Request and any other agreement or instrument 
relating to any Letter of Credit and any Reference Rate Loan made under 
Section 2.3(c) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be 
paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the aforementioned documents 
under all circumstances, including the following:

          (i)  any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of 
Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

         (ii)  the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right 
that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee 
of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or 
transferee may be acting), the Agent, any Lender (other than the defense of 
payment to a Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any 
other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan 
Document, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any unrelated 
transaction;

        (iii)  any statement or other document presented under any Letter of 
Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any 
respect, or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect 
whatsoever; PROVIDED THAT payment by the Agent under the applicable Letter of 
Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of 
the Agent under the circumstances in question, as determined by a final 
determination of a referee in accordance with the terms of the ADR Agreement; 
and

         (iv)  any exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral or 
other collateral, or any release, amendment or waiver of or consent to 
departure from any Guarantee, other Loan Document or other guaranty, for any 
of the Obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Letters of Credit.

     (e)  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the 
Revolving Loan Lenders with respect to each Letter of Credit issued 
hereunder, for the period from and including the day such Letter of Credit is 
issued to but excluding the day such Letter of Credit expires, a letter of 
credit fee equal to the product of (i) 1.50% PER ANNUM and (ii) the Letter of 
Credit Amount of such Letter of Credit from time to time, such letter of 
credit fee to be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, 
June, September and December and on the expiration date of such Letter of 
Credit.

     (f)  The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for its own account, with respect
to each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, (i) for the period from and including
the day such Letter of Credit is issued to but excluding the day such Letter of
Credit expires, a

                                   -23-

<PAGE>

fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 1/4 of 
1% per annum of the Letter of Credit Amount of such Letter of Credit from 
time to time, such fronting fee to be payable quarterly in arrears on the 
last day of each March, June, September and December and on the expiration 
date of such Letter of Credit and (ii) from time to time such additional fees 
and charges (including cable charges) as are generally associated with 
letters of credit, in accordance with the Agent's standard internal charge 
guidelines and the related Letter of Credit Request.

     (g)  The Borrower agrees to the provisions in the Letter of Credit 
Request form; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the terms of the Loan Documents shall 
take precedence if there is any inconsistency between the terms of the Loan 
Documents and the terms of said form.

     (h)  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any 
beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of 
such Letter of Credit.  Neither the Agent nor any Lender nor any of their 
respective officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for (i) the 
use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any 
beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; or (ii) the validity, 
sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereof, even 
if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, 
insufficient, fraudulent or forged; PROVIDED THAT, with respect to clause 
(ii) of this Section 2.3(h), the Borrower shall retain any and all rights it 
may have against the Agent for any liability arising out of the gross 
negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent, as determined by a final 
determination of a referee in accordance with the terms of the ADR Agreement. 
 In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent may accept 
any document that appears on its face to be in order, without responsibility 
for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the 
contrary.

     (i)  The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Revolving 
Loan Lender and the Agent from and against any and all claims and damages, 
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses that such Lender or the Agent may 
incur (or that may be claimed against such Lender or the Agent by any Person 
whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery or 
transfer of or payment or refusal to pay by the Agent, as issuer of any 
Letter of Credit; PROVIDED THAT the Borrower shall not be required to 
indemnify any Lender or the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, 
liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused 
by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Agent, as issuer of 
such Letter of Credit, in determining whether a request presented under any 
Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (y) in 
the case of the Agent, as issuer of such Letter of Credit, the Agent's 
failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a 
request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of 
Credit.  Nothing in this Section 2.3 is intended to limit the other 
obligations of the Borrower, any Lender, or the Agent under this Agreement.

     2.4  OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS.  The Borrower may at any time and from time to
time, prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon at
least

                                    -24-

<PAGE>

three Business Days' irrevocable written notice, in the case of LIBOR Loans, 
and upon at least one Business Day's irrevocable written notice, in the case 
of Reference Rate Loans, from the Borrower to the Agent, specifying the date 
and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Loans, 
Reference Rate Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination 
thereof, the amount allocable to each and whether the prepayment is of Term 
Loans or Revolving Loans, or a combination thereof, and, if a combination 
thereof, the amount allocable to each.  Upon receipt of any such notice from 
the Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.  If any 
such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and 
payable by the Borrower on the date specified therein, together with accrued 
interest to such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts payable pursuant 
to Section 2.15. Partial prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to the 
installments of principal thereof in inverse order of maturity.  Amounts 
prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.  Partial 
prepayments of the Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of 
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 in excess thereof.  Partial 
prepayments of the Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount 
of $250,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.

     2.5 MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.  If at any time the aggregate principal 
amount of all Loans outstanding exceeds the Aggregate Commitment, the 
Borrower shall immediately, without notice or request by the Agent, prepay 
the Loans (together with accrued interest to the date of prepayment on the 
principal amount prepaid) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

     2.6  CONVERSION AND CONTINUATION OPTIONS. (a) The Borrower may elect 
from time to time to convert LIBOR Loans to Reference Rate Loans, by the 
Borrower giving the Agent at least two Business Days' prior irrevocable 
written notice of such election pursuant to a Continuation Notice.  The 
Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Reference Rate Loans to LIBOR 
Loans by the Borrower giving the Agent at least three Eurodollar Business 
Days' prior irrevocable written notice of such election pursuant to a 
Continuation Notice.  Any such notice of conversion to LIBOR Loans shall 
specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods 
therefor.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Agent shall promptly notify 
each Lender thereof.  All or any part of outstanding LIBOR Loans and 
Reference Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein, PROVIDED THAT (i) 
any such conversion may only be made if, after giving effect thereto, Section 
2.7 shall not have been contravened, (ii) no Term Loan may be converted into 
a LIBOR Loan after the date that is one month prior to the due date of the 
final installment of principal of the Term Loans, (iii) no Revolving Loan may 
be converted into a LIBOR Loan after the date that is one month prior to the 
Revolving Loan Commitment Expiration Date and (iv) the Borrower shall not 
have the right to elect to continue at the end of the applicable Interest 
Period, or to convert to, a LIBOR Loan if a Default shall have occurred and 
be continuing.

     (b)  Any LIBOR Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the 
then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving 
notice to the Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term 
"Interest Period" set 

                                    -25-

<PAGE>

forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be 
applicable to such LIBOR Loan, PROVIDED THAT no LIBOR Loan may be continued 
as such (i) if, after giving effect thereto, Section 2.7 would be 
contravened, (ii) with respect to the Term Loans, after the date that is one 
month prior to the due date of the final installment of principal of the Term 
Loans, (iii) with respect to the Revolving Loans, after the date that is one 
month prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Expiration Date or (iv) if a 
Default shall have occurred and be continuing and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that if 
the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in 
this Section or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the 
preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically converted to Reference 
Rate Loans on the last day of such then-expiring Interest Period.

     2.7  MINIMUM AMOUNTS OF TRANCHES.  All borrowings, conversions and 
continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods 
hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so 
that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the 
Loans comprising each Tranche (except Loans made pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) 
shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess 
thereof and, in any case, there shall not be more than 8 Tranches.

     2.8  INTEREST RATES AND PAYMENT DATES. (a)  Each LIBOR Loan shall bear 
interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a 
rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Adjusted Rate plus (i) for LIBOR Loans 
which are Revolving Loans, the Applicable Revolving Loan Margin and (ii) for 
LIBOR Loans which are Term Loans, the Applicable Term Loan Margin.

     (b)  Each Reference Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum 
equal to the Reference Rate.

     (c)  If any Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all amounts 
outstanding shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is the rate 
described in paragraph (b) of this Section plus 2% from the date of the 
occurrence of such Default until such Default is no longer continuing (after 
as well as before judgment).

     (d)  Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, 
provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 
shall be payable on demand.

     2.9  COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. (a)  Interest on Reference Rate 
Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may 
be), day year for the actual days elapsed and interest on LIBOR Loans and all 
other Obligations of the Borrower shall be calculated on the basis of a 
360-day year for the actual days elapsed.  The Agent shall as soon as 
practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a 
LIBOR Adjusted Rate.  Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting 
from a change in the Reference Rate or the LIBOR Reserve Requirements shall 
become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change

                                    -26-

<PAGE>

in the Reference Rate is announced or such change in the LIBOR Reserve 
Requirements becomes effective, as the case may be.  The Agent shall as soon 
as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and 
the amount of each such change in interest rate.

     (b)  Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent pursuant to any 
provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower 
and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

     2.10 INABILITY TO DETERMINE INTEREST RATE.  In the event that prior to 
the first day of any Interest Period:

     (a)  the Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be 
conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that, by 
reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and 
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Adjusted Rate for 
such Interest Period, or

     (b)  the Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Lenders acting
in good faith that the LIBOR Adjusted Rate determined or to be determined for
such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining
their affected Loans during such Interest Period, the Agent shall give telecopy
or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as
practicable thereafter.  If such notice is given (x) any LIBOR Loans requested
to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall accrue interest at the
Reference Rate, (y) Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of
such Interest Period to LIBOR Loans shall be continued as Reference Rate Loans
and (z) any outstanding LIBOR Loans shall be converted, on the first day of such
Interest Period, to Reference Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been withdrawn
by the Agent, no further LIBOR Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor
shall the Borrower have the right to convert Reference Rate Loans to LIBOR
Loans.

     2.11 PRO RATA TREATMENT AND PAYMENTS.  Each payment (including each 
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the 
Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding 
principal and interest amounts of such Loans then held by the Lenders.  All 
payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder and 
under the Notes, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or 
otherwise, shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall be made 
prior to 12:00 Noon, Los Angeles time, on the due date thereof to the Agent, 
for the account of the applicable Lenders, at the Agent's office specified in 
Section 9.2, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.  The Agent shall 
distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders promptly upon receipt in 
like funds as received.  If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the 
LIBOR Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such 
payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with 
respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the 
then applicable rate during such extension.  If any payment on a LIBOR Loan 
becomes due and payable on a day other 

                                   -27-

<PAGE>

than a Eurodollar Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the 
next succeeding Eurodollar Business Day (and interest shall continue to 
accrue thereon at the applicable rate) unless the result of such extension 
would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event 
such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Eurodollar Business 
Day.

     2.12 ILLEGALITY.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any 
change after the Restatement Date in any Requirement of Law or in the 
interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender 
or Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated 
by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make LIBOR 
Loans, continue LIBOR Loans as such and convert Reference Rate Loans to LIBOR 
Loans shall forthwith be suspended during such period of illegality and (b) 
the Loans of such Lender or Applicable Lending Office then outstanding as 
LIBOR Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Reference Rate Loans 
on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect 
to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.  If any such 
conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the 
then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to 
such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 
2.15.  To the extent that a Lender's LIBOR Loans have been converted to 
Reference Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12, all payments and 
prepayments of principal that otherwise would be applied to such Lender's 
LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Reference Rate Loans.

     2.13 INCREASED COSTS. (a)  In the event that any change after the 
Restatement Date in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or 
application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive 
(whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, 
generally applicable to and complied with by banks and financial institutions 
of the same general type as such Lender in the relevant jurisdiction) from 
any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date 
hereof:

          (i)  shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
     deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirements against assets held by,
     letters of credit or guarantees issued by, deposits or other liabilities in
     or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or
     any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or Applicable
     Lending Office which is not otherwise included in the determination of the
     LIBOR Adjusted Rate hereunder; or

        (ii)   shall impose on such Lender or Applicable Lending Office any
     other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Agent 
of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit by an amount which the Agent 
deems to be material, or to such Lender or Applicable Lending Office, by an 
amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, 
continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans, or

                                    -28-

<PAGE>

purchasing or maintaining any participation in a Letter of Credit, or to 
reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof then, in any such 
case, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent, for its own account or 
on behalf of such Lender or Applicable Lending Office, as applicable, upon 
the demand of the Agent for itself or at the request of such Lender, as 
applicable, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the 
Agent, as applicable, for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.  
If the Agent, any Lender or any Applicable Lending Office becomes entitled to 
claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly 
notify the Borrower, through the Agent, of the event by reason of which it 
has become so entitled.  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable 
pursuant to this Section submitted by the Agent or such Lender or Applicable 
Lending Office, through the Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive 
evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded, absent manifest 
error.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement, 
expiration of the Letters of Credit and the payment of the Notes and all 
other amounts payable hereunder.

     (b)  If, after the date of this Agreement, the introduction of or any 
change in any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital 
adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by 
any Governmental Authority, central bank or the National Association of 
Insurance Commissioners or comparable agency charged with the interpretation 
or administration thereof, affects the amount of capital required or expected 
to be maintained by any Lender or any corporation controlling any Lender, and 
such Lender (taking into consideration such Lender's or such corporation's 
policies with respect to capital adequacy) determines that the amount of 
capital maintained by such Lender or such corporation which is attributable 
to or based upon the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this 
Agreement must be increased as a consequence of such introduction or change 
by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, upon demand of the 
Agent at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall immediately pay to 
the Agent on behalf of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to 
compensate such Lender or such corporation for the increased costs to such 
Lender or corporation of such increased capital.  Any such demand shall be 
accompanied by a certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable 
detail the computation of any such increased costs, which certificate shall 
be conclusive, absent manifest error. This covenant shall survive the 
termination of this Agreement, expiration of the Letters of Credit and the 
payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

     2.14 TAXES. (a)  All payments made by the Borrower in respect of the
Obligations shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other
taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now
or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any
Governmental Authority or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof
or therein, other than Excluded Taxes (all such non-Excluded Taxes being
hereinafter called "TAXES").  If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any
amounts payable to the Agent or any Lender in respect of the Obligations, the
amounts so payable to the Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent
necessary to

                                     -29-

<PAGE>

yield to the Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Taxes) interest or 
any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts 
specified in this Agreement and the Notes.  The Agent or a Lender, as the 
case may be, shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate in good faith 
setting forth the amount of such Taxes, the calculation of such Taxes and an 
explanation of the requirement therefor, all in reasonable detail and such 
certificate shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  Whenever any Taxes 
are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower 
shall send to the Agent, for its own account or for the account of such 
Lender, as the case may be, a copy of an original official receipt received 
by the Borrower showing payment thereof or such other evidence of payment 
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.  If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes 
when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Agent 
the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower 
shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest 
or penalties (and related reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may 
become payable by the Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.  
The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this 
Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable 
hereunder.

     (b)  Each Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United 
States of America or a state thereof agrees that it will deliver to the 
Borrower and the Agent (i) two duly completed copies of United States 
Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 or successor applicable form, as 
the case may be, and (ii) an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 or 
successor applicable form. Each such Lender also agrees to deliver to the 
Borrower and the Agent two further copies of the said Form 1001 or 4224 and 
Form W-8 or W-9, or successor applicable forms or other manner or 
certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form 
expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a 
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and 
the Agent, and such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be 
requested by the Borrower or the Agent, unless in any such case an event 
beyond the control of such Lender (including, without limitation, any change 
in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any 
such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms 
inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and 
delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advised the 
Borrower and the Agent.  Each such Lender shall certify (i) in the case of a 
Form 1001 or 4224, that it is entitled to receive payments under this 
Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal 
income taxes and (ii) in the case of a Form W-8 or W-9, that it is entitled 
to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

     2.15 INDEMNITY.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold
each Lender harmless from and to pay each Lender within 5 Business Days of such
Lender's demand the amount of any liability, loss or expense arising from the
reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate the
deposits from which such funds were obtained (including reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel) which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of
(a) default by the Borrower in 

                                   -30-

<PAGE>

payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan, 
(b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or 
continuation of LIBOR Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting 
the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) default by 
the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice 
thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (d) the making 
by the Borrower of a prepayment or conversion of LIBOR Loans on a day which 
is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  A Lender's 
certificate as to such liability, loss or expense shall be deemed conclusive, 
absent manifest error.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this 
Agreement, expiration of the Letters of Credit and the payment of the Notes 
and all other amounts payable hereunder.

     2.16 MITIGATION OF COSTS.  If any Lender, by changing its Applicable 
Lending Office or taking any other reasonable action, so long as making such 
change or taking such other action is not disadvantageous to it in any 
financial, regulatory or other respect, can mitigate any adverse effect on 
the Borrower under Section 2.10, 2.12, 2.13, or 2.14, such Lender shall take 
such action.


     SECTION 3.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     To induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans 
and participate in the Letters of Credit, and to induce the Agent to issue 
the Letters of Credit, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the 
Agent and each Lender that:

is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
its jurisdiction of incorporation as indicated on SCHEDULE 3.1, (b) has all
requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its
business as now conducted and as currently proposed to be conducted and (c) is
duly qualified to conduct business as a foreign corporation and is currently in
good standing in each state and jurisdiction in which it conducts business
except, in each case referred to in clause (c), to the extent that the failure

Each state and jurisdiction in which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is or should
be qualified to conduct business is listed on SCHEDULE 3.1 hereto.

     3.2  POWER AND AUTHORITY.  The Borrower and each Subsidiary has all
requisite power and authority under applicable law and under its Organic
Documents to (i) in the case of the Borrower, borrow hereunder and consummate
the Dubs Acquisition in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement
and (ii) execute, deliver and perform its respective obligations under the Loan
Documents to which it is a party.  All actions, waivers and consents (corporate,
regulatory and otherwise) necessary or appropriate for the Borrower to
consummate the Dubs Acquisition in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition
Agreement, and for the Borrower and each Subsidiary to execute, deliver and
perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been

                                    -31-

<PAGE>

taken and/or received.

     3.3  VALIDITY AND LEGAL EFFECT.  This Agreement constitutes, and the 
other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party 
constitute (or will constitute when executed and delivered), the legal, valid 
and binding obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, 
enforceable against it in accordance with the terms thereof, except as such 
enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, 
moratorium or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement 
of creditors' rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity 
(regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in 
equity or at law).

     3.4  NO VIOLATION OF LAWS OR AGREEMENTS.  The execution, delivery and 
performance of the Loan Documents and the consummation of the Dubs 
Acquisition in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement (a) 
will not violate or contravene any Requirement of Law, (b) will not result in 
any material breach or violation of, or constitute a material default under, 
any agreement or instrument by which the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any 
of its property, may be bound, and (c) will not result in or require the 
creation of any Lien (other than those permitted by Section 6.3) upon or with 
respect to any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, whether such 
property is now owned or hereafter acquired.

     3.5  TITLE TO ASSETS; EXISTING ENCUMBRANCES; LEGAL NAMES.  The Borrower 
and each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to all of its real and 
personal properties and assets, free and clear of any Liens (other than those 
permitted by Section 6.3). Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has used 
(or permitted the filing of any financing statement under) any legal or 
operating name at any time during the twelve consecutive calendar months 
immediately preceding the execution of this Agreement, except as identified 
on SCHEDULE 3.5 hereto.

     3.6  CAPITAL STRUCTURE; EQUITY OWNERSHIP.  The authorized capital stock

stock, without par value, 9,770,837 shares of which are issued and 
outstanding, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without par value, no 
shares of which are issued and outstanding.  All of the issued and 
outstanding shares of common stock of the Borrower are duly and validly 
issued and outstanding, and each of such shares is fully paid and 
nonassessable.  Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 3.6 hereto, there are no 
outstanding Equity Rights with respect to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and 
there are no outstanding obligations of the Borrower or any of its 
Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire any shares of 
capital stock of the Borrower, nor are there any outstanding obligations of 
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to make payments to any Person, such 
as "phantom stock" payments, where the amount thereof is calculated with 
reference to the fair market value or equity value of Borrower or any of its 
Subsidiaries.

     3.7  SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES.  SCHEDULE 3.7 hereto accurately and

                                    -32-

completely discloses (i) each Subsidiary and Affiliate of the Borrower (other 
than its officers and directors), (ii) each Person holding ownership 
interests in such Subsidiary and (iii) the nature of the ownership interests 
held by each such Person and the percentage of ownership of such Subsidiary 
represented by such ownership interests.

     3.8  MATERIAL CONTRACTS.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has 
committed any unwaived breach or default under any Material Contract, and the 
Borrower has no knowledge or reason to believe that any other party to any 
Material Contract has committed any unwaived breach or default thereof.  Each 
of the Material Contracts is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the 
Borrower or the Subsidiaries party thereto, enforceable in accordance with 
its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, 
insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights 
generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.  The 
Borrower has made available to the Lenders and the Agent a complete and 
correct copy of each Material Contract (including in each case all exhibits, 
schedules and disclosure letters referred to therein or delivered pursuant 
thereto, if any) and all amendments thereto and other side letters or 
agreements affecting the terms thereof.  Except for the Acquisition 
Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is party to any 
current agreements or letters of intent providing for the acquisition or 
disposition of any assets with a fair market value of $1,000,000 or more.

     3.9 TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.  The Borrower and each Subsidiary has timely 
filed all required tax returns and reports (federal, state and local) or has 
properly filed for extensions of the time for the filing thereof.  The 
Borrower has no knowledge of any deficiency, penalty or additional assessment 
due or appropriate in connection with any such taxes.  All taxes (federal, 
state and local) imposed upon the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of its 
properties, operations or income have been paid and discharged prior to the 
date when any interest or penalty would accrue for the nonpayment thereof, 
except for those taxes being contested in good faith by appropriate 
proceedings diligently prosecuted and with adequate reserves reflected on the 
financial statements in accordance with GAAP.  There are no taxes imposed on 
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries by any political subdivision or taxing 
authority due or payable either on or by virtue of the execution and delivery 
by the Borrower, the Subsidiaries, the Agent, or the Lenders of this 
Agreement or any other Loan Document to which the Borrower or the 
Subsidiaries are party, or on any payment to be made by the Borrower pursuant 
hereto or thereto.

     3.10 LITIGATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.  Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 
3.10 hereto, there is no litigation, claim, investigation, administrative 
proceeding, labor controversy or similar action that is pending or, to the 
knowledge of the Borrower, threatened (i) with respect to any Loan Document 
or the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) with respect to the Dubs 
Acquisition or the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement or 
(iii) against the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Property which, if 
determined adversely to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, would reasonably be 
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

compensation arrangements, or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate
or any Subsidiary not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary UNLESS such transaction is in
the ordinary course of the Borrower's or such Subsidiary's business and is upon
terms no less favorable to the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be,

$500,000 the Majority Lenders shall have consented thereto.

seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official
for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, or the Borrower or any
other Obligor shall make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;
or (ii) there shall be commenced against the Borrower or any other Obligor any
case, proceeding or other action of a nature referred to in clause (i) above
which (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication

or conditions, if any, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect; or

     (i)  One or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against the Borrower
or any Subsidiary involving in the aggregate a liability (not paid or fully

on the collateral intended to be covered thereby in favor of the Agent, free and
clear of all other Liens (other than Liens permitted under Section 6.3), or,
except for expiration in accordance with its terms, any of the Collateral
Documents and/or the Guarantor Collateral Documents shall for whatever reason be

commitment to issue Letters of Credit shall immediately terminate and the Loans
made to the Borrower hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other
Obligations shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is
any other Event of Default, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, the Agent
may, or upon the request of

                                    -53-

<PAGE>

the Majority Lenders, the Agent shall, take any or all of the following

     SECTION 8.  THE AGENT

     8.1  APPOINTMENT.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints
Union Bank of California, N.A., as Agent for such Lender under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes Union
Bank of California, N.A., as the Agent for such Lender, to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the
Agent.

     8.2  DELEGATION OF DUTIES.  The Agent may execute any of its duties under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or 
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all 
matters pertaining to such duties.  The Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with
reasonable care.

     8.3  EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS.  Neither the Agent, nor any of the Agent's
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be
(i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such
Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(except for its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or
(ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, any Subsidiary
or any other Obligor or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other

                                   -54-

<PAGE>

document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in 
connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, 
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this 
Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the 
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Obligor to perform its obligations 
hereunder or thereunder.  The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any 
Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any 
of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other 
Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the 
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Obligor.

     8.4  RELIANCE BY THE AGENT.  The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or
teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including,
without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), the Accountants and independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Agent.  The Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a
written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been
filed with the Agent.  The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing
to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders, the
Majority Revolving Loan Lenders or all Lenders, as it deems appropriate, or it
shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and
all liability and expense (except those incurred solely as a result of the
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct) which may be incurred by it by
reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement and the Notes and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a
request of the Majority Lenders, the Majority Revolving Loan Lenders or all
Lenders, as may be required, and such request and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future
holders of the Notes.

     8.5  NOTICE OF DEFAULT.  The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default hereunder unless the Agent has received
notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing
such Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default".  In the
event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof
to the Lenders.  The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default
as shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Lenders, the Majority Revolving
Loan Lenders, or all Lenders as appropriate; PROVIDED THAT unless and until the
Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders
or as the Agent shall believe necessary to protect the Lenders' interests in the
Collateral or the Guarantor Collateral.

     8.6  NON-RELIANCE ON THE AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS.  Each Lender expressly

                                    -55-

<PAGE>

acknowledges that neither the Agent, nor any of the Agent's officers, 
directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has 
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent 
hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any 
Subsidiary or any other Obligor, shall be deemed to constitute any 
representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender 
represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon 
the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as 
it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into 
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and 
creditworthiness of the Borrower, any Subsidiary and the other Obligors and 
made its own decision to make its Loans, and participate in Letters of 
Credit, hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents 
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other 
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem 
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals 
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the 
other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to 
inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other 
condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the 
other Obligors.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly 
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder, the Agent 
shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or 
other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition 
(financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any 
Subsidiary or any other Obligor which may come into the possession of the 
Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact 
or Affiliates.

     8.7 INDEMNIFICATION.  The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent in its 
capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, its 
Subsidiaries or the other Obligors and without limiting the obligation of 
such Persons to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their 
Commitments, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, 
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs (including, without 
limitation, the allocated cost of internal counsel), expenses or 
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, 
without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes) be 
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent, in its capacity as 
Agent, but not as a Lender hereunder, in any way relating to or arising out 
of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents 
contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions 
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent 
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; PROVIDED THAT no Lender 
shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, 
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, 
expenses or disbursements to the extent they arise from the gross negligence 
or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.  The agreements in this 
Section shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable 
hereunder and the expiration of the Letters of Credit.

     8.8 THE AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.  The Agent and its Affiliates may
make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business
with the

                                    -56-

<PAGE>

Borrower, any Subsidiary and the other Obligors as though the Agent were not 
the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  The Loans made or 
renewed and the Letters of Credit issued or participated in by the Agent, and 
any Note issued to the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this 
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and the Agent may 
exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms "Lender" and 
"Lenders" shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

     8.9 SUCCESSOR AGENT.  The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days' notice 
to the Lenders.  If the Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement and 
the other Loan Documents, then the Majority Lenders shall appoint from among 
the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent (so long 
as no Default has occurred and is continuing) shall be approved by the 
Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such 
successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent 
and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its 
appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall 
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such 
former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the 
Notes.  After any retiring Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of 
this Section shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to 
be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan 
Documents.  Further, if the Agent no longer has any Loans, Letter of Credit 
participations or Commitments hereunder, the Agent shall immediately resign 
and shall be replaced, and have the benefits, as set forth in this Section 
8.9.  In addition, after the replacement of an Agent hereunder, the retiring 
Agent shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights 
and obligations of an Agent under this Agreement with respect to Letters of 
Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to 
issue additional Letters of Credit.

     8.10 COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS.  Anything contained in any of the Loan 
Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Agent and each 
Lender hereby agree that (a) no Lender shall have any right individually to 
realize upon any of the Collateral or Guarantor Collateral under any Loan 
Document or to enforce any Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all 
powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents and Guarantor 
Collateral Documents and the Guarantees may be exercised solely by the Agent 
for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, and (b) 
in the event of a foreclosure by the Agent on any of the Collateral or 
Guarantor Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Agent or any 
Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral or Guarantor 
Collateral at any such sale and the Agent, as agent for and representative of 
the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective 
individual capacities unless the Majority Lenders shall otherwise agree in 
writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement 
or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral or 
Guarantor Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of 
the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any such 
collateral payable by the Agent at such sale.

Collateral, except for any Asset Disposition or release of Lien permitted by 
this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (e) amend, modify or waive, 
directly or indirectly, any of the provisions of Section 2.1(e), 2.2(f) or 
2.11; or (f) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement requiring 
the consent or approval of all Lenders; or (g) increase the Aggregate 
Commitment, in each case set forth in clauses (i)(b) through (i)(g) above 
without the written consent of all the Lenders; or (ii) amend, modify or 
waive any provision of Section 4.2 with respect to the making of a Revolving 
Loan, or reduce the percentage specified in, or otherwise modify the 
definition of, Majority Revolving Loan Lenders, without the written consent 
of the Majority Revolving Loan Lenders; or (iii) amend, modify or waive any 
provision of Section 8 without the written consent of the Agent, or any 
provision affecting the rights and duties of the Agent as the issuer of 
Letters of Credit without the consent of the then Agent.  Any such waiver and 
any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of 
the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the other Obligors, the 
Lenders, the Agent and all future holders of the Notes.  In the case of any 
waiver, the Borrower, the other Obligors, the Lenders, and the Agent shall be 
restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the 
outstanding Notes and any other Loan Documents, and any Default waived shall 
be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to 
any subsequent or other Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

(c) to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent from 
any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with 
respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other

all Indemnified Liabilities, PROVIDED THAT the Borrower shall have no 
obligation hereunder to the Agent or any Lender with respect to Indemnified 
Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the 
Agent or any Lender.  As used herein, "Indemnified Liabilities" means, 
collectively, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages 
(including natural resource damages), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, 
claims (including environmental claims), costs (including the costs of any 
investigation, study, sampling, testing, abatement, cleanup, removal,

disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees 
and disbursements of counsel for Indemnitees in connection with any 
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened 
by any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a 
party or a potential party thereto, and any fees or expenses incurred by 
Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), whether direct, indirect or 
consequential and whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, 
statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and commercial laws, 
statutes, rules or regulations and environmental laws), on common law or 
equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred 
by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or 
arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Acquisition 
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including 
Lenders' agreement to make the Loans hereunder or the use or intended use of 
the proceeds thereof or the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder or the 
use or intended use of any thereof, or any enforcement of any of the Loan 
Documents (including any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon 
any of the Collateral or the Guarantor Collateral or the enforcement of the 
Guarantees)).  (To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay 
and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.5 may be unenforceable in whole 
or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the 
Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and 
satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all 
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.)  The 
agreements in this Section shall 

                                   -60-

<PAGE>

survive repayment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

     9.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS; PURCHASING LENDERS. (a)  
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the 
Borrower, the Lenders, the Agent, all future holders of the Notes and their 
respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign, 
transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement 
without the prior written consent of each Lender.

     (b)  Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking or 
finance business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to 
one or more banks or other entities ("PARTICIPANTS") participating interests 
in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Letter of Credit participated in by 
such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or 
any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan 
Documents; PROVIDED THAT the holder of any such participation, other than an 
Affiliate of such Lender, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to 
take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly affecting 
the extension of the maturity of any portion of the principal amount of a 
Loan or Commitment, the expiration of a Letter of Credit or any portion of 
interest or fees related thereto allocated to such participation or a 
reduction of the principal amount or principal payment amount of or the rate 
of interest payable on the Loans or any fees related thereto or reduction of 
the amount to be reimbursed under any Letter of Credit, or a release of any 
Obligor or any substantial portion of the Collateral or the Guarantor 
Collateral or any increase in participation amounts. In the event of any such 
sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender's 
obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall 
remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the 
performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note and 
the participant in any such Letter of Credit for all purposes under this 
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and the Agent shall 
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such 
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan 
Documents.  The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this 
Agreement and the Notes are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or 
shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, 
each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of 
its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Note 
to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing 
directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any Note, PROVIDED THAT 
such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of setoff if it shall 
have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its 
participating interest to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as 
provided in Section 9.7.  The Borrower also agrees that each Participant 
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 with 
respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans and the Letters 
of Credit outstanding from time to time; PROVIDED THAT no Participant shall 
be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the 
transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the 
amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such 
Participant had no such transfer occurred.

     (c)  Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking

                                     -61-

<PAGE>

business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to any of 
its Affiliates or to any Lender, any Affiliate thereof or to one or more 
additional lenders or financial institutions, which additional lenders shall 
be subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be 
unreasonably withheld and not to be required if a Default has occurred and is 
continuing, and the Agent ("PURCHASING LENDERS") all or any part of its 
rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan 
Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by such 
Purchasing Lender and such transferor Lender and delivered to the Agent for 
its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined in (d) below), 
PROVIDED THAT (i) any such sale must result in the Purchasing Lender having 
at least $5,000,000 in aggregate amount of obligations under this Agreement, 
the Notes and the other Loan Documents and (ii) each such assignment by a 
Lender of its Revolving Loans, Revolving Note, Revolving Commitment or its 
participation in Letters of Credit shall be in such manner so that the same 
portion of its Revolving Loans, Revolving Note, Revolving Commitment and its 
participation in Letters of Credit is assigned to the respective assignee.  
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the 
transfer effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and 
Acceptance, (x) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, 
to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and 
obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and 
(y) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of such assigned 
portion and as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from 
its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and, in 
the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining 
portion of a transferor Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, 
such transferor Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).  Such Assignment 
and Acceptance shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and 
only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing 
Lender and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from 
the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and 
obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement, the Notes and the 
other Loan Documents. On or prior to the transfer effective date determined 
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, the Borrower, at its own expense, 
shall execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note 
or Notes a new Note or Notes to the order of such Purchasing Lender in an 
amount equal to the Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and 
Acceptance, and if the transferor Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder, 
new Notes to the order of the transferor Lender in an amount equal to the 
Commitments retained by it hereunder.  Such new Notes shall be dated the 
Restatement Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Notes replaced 
thereby.  The Notes surrendered by the transferor Lender shall be returned by 
the Agent to the Borrower marked "canceled."

     (d)  The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 a
copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the
"REGISTER") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and
the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, and, if
applicable, the Letters of Credit participated in by, each Lender from time to
time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of
manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the

                                     -62-

<PAGE>

Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the 
owner of the Loans and the participant in the Letters of Credit, if 
applicable, recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement.  The 
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at 
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (e)  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed in 
accordance with the terms hereof, together with payment to the Agent by the 
Purchasing Lender of a registration and processing fee of $2,500, the Agent 
shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the 
effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained 
therein in the Register.

     (f)  The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant 
or Purchasing Lender (each, a "TRANSFEREE") and any prospective Transferee 
any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning the 
Borrower, its Subsidiaries, and their Affiliates which has been delivered to 
such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any 
other Loan Document or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on 
behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation of 
the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, and their Affiliates prior to becoming a 
party to this Agreement.

     (g)  Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning 
any of its rights under its Notes, or, if applicable, its participation in 
any Letter of Credit, to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with 
applicable law.

     9.7 ADJUSTMENTS; SET-OFF. (a)  If any Lender (a "BENEFITTED LENDER") 
shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, its 
participations in Letters of Credit, or interest thereon, or fees, or receive 
any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by 
set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in 
Section 7(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to 
or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other 
Lender's Loans, its participations in Letters of Credit, or interest thereon, 
or fees, such benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other 
Lenders such portion of each such other Lender's Loans, participations in 
Letters of Credit, or fees, or shall provide such other Lenders with the 
benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be 
necessary to cause such benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or 
benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; 
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or 
benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefitted Lender, such purchase 
shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the 
extent of such recovery, but without interest.  The Borrower agrees that each 
Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender's Loan or its participations 
in Letters of Credit may exercise all rights of payment (including, without 
limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if 
such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

     (b)  In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law,

                                    -63-

<PAGE>

with the prior consent of the Majority Lenders, each Lender shall have the 
right, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event 
of Default and acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 7, without 
prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the 
Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set-off and 
appropriate and apply against any such Obligations any and all deposits 
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, 
and any other credits, indebtedness or claims in any currency, in each case 
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at 
any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof or bank 
controlling such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower.  
Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and 
application made by such Lender, PROVIDED THAT the failure to give such 
notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

     9.8 COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the 
parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of 
said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the 
same instrument.  Delivery by telecopier of an executed counterpart of a 
signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an 
originally executed counterpart of this Agreement.

     9.9 SEVERABILITY.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited 
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be 
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without 
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or 
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render 
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     9.10 INTEGRATION.  This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the 
Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter 
hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or 
warranties by the Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof 
not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

     9.11 GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND 
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE 
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL 
LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS 
PRINCIPLES.

     9.12 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.  The Borrower hereby acknowledges that: (a) it 
has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of 
this Agreement and the Notes and the other Loan Documents;(b) neither the 
Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship to the Borrower solely by 
virtue of any of the Loan Documents, and the relationship pursuant to the 
Loan Documents between the Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and the 
Borrower on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor; and (c)   
no joint venture exists among the Lenders or among the Borrower, on one hand 
and the Lenders, on the other hand.

other purpose.

     9.14 COPIES OF CERTIFICATES, ETC.  Whenever the Borrower is required to 
deliver notices, certificates, opinions, statements or other information 
hereunder to the Agent for delivery to any Lender, it shall do so in such

     9.15 TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

     (a)  The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial 
advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to 
the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this 
Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender, or by one or more Subsidiaries or 
affiliates of such Lender and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to 
share any information delivered to such Lender by the Borrower and its 
Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision 
of such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any such Subsidiary or 
affiliate, it being understood that any such Subsidiary or affiliate 
receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of clause (b) 
below as if it were a Lender hereunder.  Such authorization shall survive the 
repayment of the Loans, the expiration of the Letters of Credit and the 
termination of the Commitments.

     (b)  Each Lender and the Agent agrees (on behalf of itself and each of 
its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to use 
reasonable precautions to keep confidential, in accordance with their 
customary procedures for handling confidential information of the same nature 
and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, any non-public 
information supplied to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement that is 
identified by the Borrower as being confidential at the time the same is 
delivered to the Lenders or the Agent, PROVIDED THAT nothing herein shall 
limit the disclosure of any such information (i) to the extent required by 
statute, rule, regulation or judicial process, (ii) to counsel for any of the 
Lenders or the Agent, (iii) to bank examiners or other regulatory 
authorities, auditors or accountants, (iv) to the Agent or any other Lender,

materials furnished by the Borrower.

     9.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS 
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL 
ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR 
ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM 
THEREIN.

completely amend, restate and replace the Existing Agreement, without
