Completion of $40 Million Credit Facility

     On June 26,  1997,  COMFORCE  Corporation  and its  operating  subsidiaries
(collectively,  the  "Company")  completed a $40 million  credit  facility  (the
"Credit Facility") with Fleet National Bank, as lender and agent ("Fleet"),  and
U.S. Bank, Washington, as lender (collectively,  "Lenders"). The Credit Facility
consists of a revolving  credit  facility of up to $20 million and a $20 million
term loan.

     The Company  utilized all of the proceeds of the term loan and a portion of
the  availability  under the revolving  credit  facility to redeem the Company's
$25.2  million  in  outstanding  principal  amount of  Convertible  Subordinated
Debentures issued  principally to fund the Company's  acquisition of RHO Company
Incorporated  ("RHO") in February 1997.  Additional  funds  available  under the
revolving  credit  facility  were  used to  retire  the  existing  $7.5  million
revolving credit facility of RHO with U.S. Bank, Washington. The Company intends
to use available  funds under the revolving  credit facility for working capital
and general  corporate  purposes,  including  for  acquisitions,  subject to the
satisfaction  of the  conditions  therefor  set  forth in the  Credit  Facility.
Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to various  financial
covenants and other  conditions.  As of July 3, 1997, $19.4 million was drawn or
available to be drawn under the revolving credit facility based on the Company's
satisfaction of borrowing base requirements on such date.

     The  revolving  credit  facility and the term loan bear  interest at a rate
equal to 0.75% and  1.75%,  respectively,  in excess of  Fleet's  prime  rate as
announced from time to time. The Company's obligations under the Credit Facility
are secured by substantially all of its assets.  In addition,  James L. Paterek,
the Chairman of the Company,  Christopher P. Franco, the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company,  and Michael  Ferrentino,  the  President  of the Company,  each
pledged 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock held by them and all of the
options to purchase  Common Stock held by them as additional  collateral for the
Company's obligations under the Credit Facility.  The scheduled maturity date of
the  revolving  credit  facility is July 10, 1998.  Subject to Fleet's  right to
issue a call notice requiring repayment of the term loan at any time on or after
July 10,  1998,  the term loan is payable in quarterly  installment  as follows:
$750,000  on July 1,  1998 and at the end of each  calendar  quarter  thereafter
through and including December 31, 1999;  $1,475,000 at the end of each calendar
quarter  beginning March 31, 2000 and ending March 31, 2002, and a final balloon
payment equal to the sum of unpaid  principal plus accrued  interest on June 30,
2002.

     In connection  with  underwriting  and extending the loan,  Fleet earned an
underwriting  fee of $600,000  and  received  warrants  to purchase  (i) 100,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise  price of $7.30 per share ($1.50 per share
in excess of the average closing price of the Common Stock for the five business
days ended June 24,  1997),  exercisable  until June 25,  2000 and (ii)  100,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise  price of $0.75 per share in excess of the
average  closing  price of the Common  Stock for the five  business  days ending
prior  to the  date  of the  occurrence  of  specified  conditions,  exercisable
commencing on such date and for a period of three years thereafter.

Conversion of Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock.

     Effective as of June 30, 1997, the Company  completed its conversion of the
remaining  5,265 shares of its Series D Preferred  Stock into 526,500  shares of
Common  Stock.  To effect  this  conversion,  the Company  reduced the  original
conversion  price of $12.00 per share to $10.00 per share,  which resulted in an
increase  in the  shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon  conversion  by 87,750
shares.  The  Company  had  previously  converted  other  shares of its Series D
Preferred Stock at $12.00 per share.  The Company will record a noncash dividend
for  the  second  quarter  of  $494,000  to  reflect  this  modification  to the
conversion  price.  The Company offered to modify the conversion price to induce
the  conversions  and  thereby  eliminate   substantially  all  preferred  stock
dividends  going forward.  Currently,  the Company has no outstanding  shares of
preferred  stock  except for 500 shares of its Series F  Preferred  Stock with a
liquidation value of $500,000 which are held by a single stockholder.
