(1) Basis of Presentation -
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The balance sheet at September 30, 1994 has been derived
from the audited financial statements at that date. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three month and six month periods ended April 1, 1995 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30,
1995. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report to shareholders
for the year ended September 30, 1994.
(2) Inventories -
Inventories, stated at the lower of cost (primarily last-in, first-out) or
market, are comprised of the following:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Three Months Ended April 1, 1995 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31,
1994.
Net sales for the three months ended April 1, 1995 were $52.0 million as
compared to $44.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year, an
increase of $7.8 million or 17.6%. The increase was due to an increase in
customer orders and average price increases over the last 12 months of
approximately 6%.
Net sales of activewear were $43.3 million for the three months ended April
1, 1995 as compared to $34.5 million in the comparable period of the prior year,
an increase of $8.8 million or 25.5%. Net sales of T-shirts and sweat shirts
increased by $7.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively. These increases were
principally due to increased unit sales of T-shirts of $4.8 million and sweat
shirts of $1.0 million, as well as $3.0 million of additional revenue
attributable to increased prices.
Net sales of infantswear were $8.7 million for the three months ended April
1, 1995 as compared to $9.7 million in the comparable period of 1994, a decrease
of $1.0 million or 10.3%. The reduced sales are principally the result of lower
unit sales of higher priced playwear lines caused by increased competition
including promotional pricing.
Gross profit for the quarter ended April 1, 1995 was $10.0 million, an
increase of $3.3 million or 49.3% from the comparable period of the prior year.
Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 19.2% compared to 15.1%
in the comparable period of the prior year due to the price increases mentioned
above (6.0%) and overall reduced per unit operating costs (0.8%), offset in part
by increased raw material prices (2.7%).
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
April 1, 1995 increased $1.0 million or 19.5% from the comparable period of the
prior year, due to a higher number of selling and administrative personnel and
other related personnel costs. The increased personnel were added to support
anticipated increased sales in fiscal 1995.
8
<PAGE>
Interest expense, net of interest income, for the first quarter of 1995 was
$0.8 million compared to $1.1 million for the corresponding period last year.
The decrease was due primarily to lower average borrowings.
Six Months Ended April 1, 1995 Compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 1994.
Net sales for the six months ended April 1, 1995 were $92.1 million as
compared to $78.4 million in the prior year, an increase of $13.7 million or
17.5%. The increase was due to an increase in customer orders and average price
increases over the last 12 months of approximately 4.9%
Net sales of activewear were $76.3 million for the six months ended April
1, 1995 compared to $61.6 million in the prior year, an increase of $14.7
million or 23.9%. Net sales of T-shirts and sweatshirts increased by $12.0
million and $2.7 million, respectively. These increases were principally due to
increased unit sales of T-shirts of $7.6 million and sweatshirts of $2.4
million, as well as $4.5 million of additional revenue attributable to increased
prices.
Net sales of infantswear were $15.8 million for the six months ended April
1, 1995 as compared to $16.8 million in the comparable period of the prior year,
a decrease of $1.0 million or 6.0%. The reduced sales are principally the result
of lower unit sales of higher priced playwear lines caused by increased
competition including promotional pricing.
Gross profit for the six months ended April 1, 1995 was $17.9 million, an
increase of $5.7 million or 46.7% from the comparable period of the prior year.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 19.4% compared to 15.6%
in the comparable period of the prior year due to the price increases mentioned
above (4.9%) and overall reduced per unit operating costs (1.1%), offset in part
by increased raw material prices (2.2%)
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended April
1, 1995 increased $1.6 million or 17.9% from the comparable period of the prior
year, due to a higher number of selling and administrative personnel and other
personnel related costs. The increased personnel were added to support
anticipated increased sales in fiscal 1995.
Interest expense, net of interest income, for the six months ended April 1,
1995 was $1.4 million compared to $2.0 million for the corresponding period last
year. The decrease was due primarily to lower average borrowings.
9
<PAGE>
The Company announced in May 1995 the implementation of a rebate program to
be effective for most of the third quarter ending July 1, 1995, under which
screenprinters will be eligible for certain rebates. The impact on third quarter
pretax profits is estimated to be between $1.5 and $2.0 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Working capital was $59.1 million at April 1, 1995 compared to $60.9
million at September 30, 1994. The decrease was due primarily to current
maturities of long-term debt. The Company has available bank lines of credit of
approximately $55.0 million, including $30.0 million of uncommitted short-term
lines of credit and $25.0 million under a bank credit facility which provides
for interest at approximately the lending banks' prime rates and becomes due
between 1997 and 2000. At April 1, 1995, there were $26.5 million outstanding
under the uncommitted short-term lines. These bank lines were used to finance
planned, seasonal increases in accounts receivable and inventories. At April 1,
1995, there were no borrowings outstanding under the $25,000,0000 bank credit
facility. The Company believes that its working capital and bank lines are
sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
Through April 1, 1995 an aggregate 61,900 shares of the Company's Common
Stock has been purchased in connection with a previously announced 350,000 share
Stock Repurchase Plan at a total cost of $697,000.
The previously announced $16,000,000 textile expansion project at the
Fayette, Alabama facility is being accelerated in order to provide incremental
production capacity within two years rather than the originally planned three
years. The Company intends to finance this accelerated project through a debt
financing which it expects to consummate during 1995; however, no assurance can
be given that such debt financing will be consummated. In the event that this
debt financing is not consummated in a timely manner, the Company believes that
its available bank credit facility, together with operating leases and funds
generated from operations, would be sufficient to finance this project.
Effects of Inflation
- --------------------
The Company believes that the relatively moderate rates of inflation in
recent years have not had a significant impact on its sales and profitability.

OFFERING BASIS LOAN AGREEMENT
This offering Basis Loan Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into this 3rd
day of April 1995 , by and between First Union National Bank of South Carolina
("Bank"), 177 Meeting Street, Charleston, SC and Oneita Industries, Inc., PO
Drawer 40909, Charleston, SC 29423.
In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, Bank may, in
its sole and absolute discretion, make available to Borrower, loan funds, the
aggregate principal amount of which shall not exceed Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000.00) at any time (the "Line of Credit"), upon the following terms
and conditions:
1. Method of Borrower. Each advance under the Line of Credit (the
"Advance") shall be offered to the Borrower through its representative(s) by a
duly authorized representative of the Bank at a specific interest rate for a
specific maturity. Requests for, offers of, and acceptance of Advances between
the Bank and the Borrower may be made in writing (including facsimile
transmission) or orally (including telephonic communication). All Advances shall
be in immediately available funds. The terms of an offered Advance shall be open
for acceptance by the Borrower for a period of 30 minutes immediately following
notification to the Borrower by the Bank of such offering and the offering shall
be deemed withdrawn if not accepted within that time period. All terms offered
with respect to the Advances shall be determined by Bank in its sole discretion.
Any Advance shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, for the
benefit of, and at the request of the Borrower when: (1)(a) the Advance is
deposited or credited to an account of the Borrower with the Bank,
notwithstanding that such Advance was requested, orally or in writing, by
someone other than a representative of Borrower, and (b) any part of such
Advance is withdrawn from the account; or (2) the Advance is made in accordance
with oral or written instructions of a representative of the Borrower.
2. Interest Rate. Each Advance shall bear interest at an "Offering Rate",
which shall mean such interest rates and terms offered by the Bank and accepted
by the Borrower. The term for Advances at the Offering Rate (the "Offering
Interest Period") shall not exceed 180 days. Interest on Advances at an Offering
Rate shall be payable upon the last day of the respective Offering Interest
Period, and at as such other time or times as may be agreed to by the Bank and
the Borrower. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the
actual number of days in the interest period ("Actual/360 Computation"). Bank's
Actual/360 computation determines the annual effective interest yield by taking
the stated (nominal) interest rate for a year's period and then dividing said
rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in
the interest period.
<PAGE>
3. Recordation of Advances. Bank will maintain records of the date, amount,
maturity, payment schedule, and interest rate applicable to each Advance, the
date and amount of any payment of principal or interest, and the principal
balance then remaining unpaid. The Borrower hereby agrees that the Advances so
evidenced in such records shall, for all purposes, constitute prima facie
evidence thereof and shall be binding upon the Borrower.
4. Payment of Advances. Borrower promises to pay to the order of the Bank
at Bank's offices located at 177 Meeting Street, Charleston, SC, or at such
other place as the Bank may designate in writing, the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance made by the Bank, and accrued interest, on the maturity date of
each respective Advance and such other dates and terms as may be set forth in
the Bank records. All payments shall be made in immediately available lawful
money of the United States.
5. Prepayments. An Advance may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time;
provided however, that if the Advance is prepaid in whole or in part, whether
voluntary, mandatory, upon acceleration or otherwise, the prepayment shall be
accompanied by an additional amount deemed necessary by Bank to compensate Bank
for any losses, costs or expenses which Bank may incur as a result of such
prepayment, pursuant to the following formula:
Prepayment Compensation = (A-B) x C x D
A = The sum, determined as of the funding date of the
Advance, of (i) the Bond equivalent bid side yield of
the U.S. Treasury Note with a maturity closest to the
maturity of the fixed rate period (defined below) as
quoted by the Wall Street Journal (or other published
source), plus (ii) the corresponding bid side market
swap spread as determined by Bank from quotes generally
available in the interbank dealer market for interest
rate swaps, plus (iii) one-half percent (1/2%).
B = The sum, determined as of the prepayment date of the
Advance, of (i) the Bond equivalent bid side yield of
the U.S. Treasury Note with a maturity closest to the
remaining maturity of the fixed rate period as quoted by
the Wall Street Journal (or other published source),
plus (ii) the corresponding bid side market swap spread
as determined by Bank from quotes generally available in
the interbank dealer market for interest rate swaps.
C = Principal Amount Prepaid
D = Number of days from the date of prepayment to the end of
the fixed period divided by a year base of 360 days.
<PAGE>
As used herein, "the fixed rate period" shall be the period during which
the applicable fixed rate of interest on the Advance is to be in effect. In the
event that amount determined as variable B above is greater than the amount
determined as variable A above, no prepayment compensation shall be due
hereunder. the determination of prepayment compensation due Bank hereunder shall
be made by Bank in good faith using such methodology as Bank deems appropriate
and customary under the circumstances and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.
Any prepayment in whole or in part shall include interest and all other
sums then due with respect to the Advance. No partial prepayment shall affect
the obligation of Borrower to make any payment of principal or interest due with
respect to the Advance until the Advance has been paid in full.
6. Conditions Precedent. The obligation of the Bank to disburse Advances as
offered and accepted pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the following
conditions president:
a. Non-default. The Borrower shall be in compliance with all of the
terms and conditions set forth herein and an Event of Default as
specified herein, or an event which upon notice or lapse of
time or both would constitute such an Event of Default shall not
have occurred or be continuing at the time of such Advance.
b. Additional Documents. Receipt of such additional supporting
documents as the Bank may request.
7. Termination Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement
immediately upon written notice to the other, provided, however, the terms of
this Agreement with respect to the obligations then outstanding of the Borrower
under this Agreement as of the date of termination shall survive until the
obligations are fully satisfied.
8. Events of Default. Notwithstanding the term of an Advance or Advances as
set forth herein, the Bank, at is sole option and without notice, may accelerate
the maturity of the Advances and all Advances shall be immediately due and
payable, including interest thereon, upon the occurrence of any of the following
events ("Events of Default"):
a. If the Borrower shall fail to pay any amounts when due or shall
fail to observe or perform any obligation or covenant, as required
under this Agreement, or any other document furnished in

PROMISSORY NOTE
$10,000,0O Office 100 Jericho Quadrangle As of
Address: Jericho, New York 11753 April 25, 1995
On the maturity dates set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, for value
received, ONEITA INDUSTRIES, INC., (the "Borrower") promises to pay to the order
of NATWEST BANK N.A. (the "Bank") at the office of the Bank located at the place
first above stated or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to
time appoint in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America in
immediately available funds, the principal sum of Ten Million ($10,000,000)
Dollars or such lesser amount as may then be the aggregate unpaid principal
balance of all loans made by the Bank to the Borrower hereunder (each a "Loan"
and collectively the "Loans") as shown on the schedule attached to and made a
part of this Note, on the maturity dates set forth on such schedule. The
Borrower also promises to pay interest (computed on the basis of a 360 day year
for actual days elapsed) at said office in like money on the unpaid principal
amount of each Loan from time to time outstanding at a rate per annum, to be
elected by the Borrower at the time each Loan is made, equal to either (i) a
fluctuating rate equal to the Prime Rate (the rate of interest established from
time to time by the Bank as its "prime rate"; a Loan bearing interest at this
rate is sometimes hereinafter called a "Prime Loan"), (ii) a fixed rate of 0.75%
plus the Eurodollar Rate for an Interest Period of 1, 2 or 3 months (a Loan
bearing interest at this rate is sometimes hereinafter called a "Eurodollar
Loan") or (iii) such other fixed rate as may be agreed upon between the Borrower
and the Bank for an Interest Period which is also then agreed upon (a Loan
bearing interest at this rate is sometimes hereinafter called an "Agreed Rate
Loan" - Agreed Rate Loans, and Eurodollar Loans are sometimes collectively
referred to as "Fixed Rate Loans"); provided, however, that no Interest Period
with respect to a Fixed Rate Loan shall extend beyond April 30, 1996; and
provided, further, that if prior to the end of any such Interest Period the
Borrower and the Bank fail to agree upon a new Interest Period therefor so as to
maintain such Loan as either a Eurodollar Loan, or an Agreed Rate Loan within
the pertinent time set forth in Section 2 hereof, such Fixed Rate Loan shall
automatically be converted into a Prime Rate Loan at the end of such Interest
Period and shall be maintained as such until a new Fixed Rate and a new Interest
Period therefor are agreed upon. Interest on each Loan shall be payable monthly
on the last day of each month commencing the first such day to occur after a
Loan is made hereunder and, together with principal, on the maturity thereof.
<PAGE>
Interest on Fixed Rate Loans shall also be payable on the last day of each
Interest Period applicable thereto. If any payment of principal or interest
becomes due on a day on which the banks in New York, New York, are required or
permitted by law to remain closed, such payment may be made on the next
succeeding day on which such banks are open, and such extensions shall be
included in computing interest in connection with such payment; provided,
however, that if the result of any such extension would be to extend the
maturity date of any Eurodollar Loan into another calendar month the payment
shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. The Borrower
further agrees that after any stated or any accelerated maturity of Loans
hereunder, all Loans shall bear interest (computed daily) at a rate of 2% per
annum in excess of the Prime Rate, payable on demand. In no event shall interest
payable hereunder be in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted under
applicable law.
All Loans then outstanding shall be due an payable on January 31, 1996.
Fixed Rate Loans may be requested, in accordance with the provisions of Section
1 hereof, up to 1 p.m. on January 31, 1996; provided that no Interest Period for
any Fixed Rate Loan shall extend beyond April 30, 1996.
The Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Bank to record on the attached
schedule the amount and date of each Loan, the rate of interest thereon,
Interest Period thereof and the date and amount of each payment of principal.
All such notations shall be presumptive as to the correctness thereof; provided,
however, the failure of the bank to make any such notation shall not limit or
otherwise affect the obligations of the borrower under this Note.
In consideration of the granting of the Loans evidenced by this Note, the
Borrower hereby agrees as follows:
1. Loan Requests. Requests for Eurodollar Loans shall be made not less than
three Business Days prior to the first day of the Interest Period of each such
Loan. Requests for Agreed Rate Loans and Prime Loans may be made up until 1 p.m.
on the date the Loan is to be made. Any request for a Loan may be written or
oral, but if oral, written confirmation thereof must be received by the Bank
within 3 Business Days thereafter. The Bank shall have no obligation to make any
Loan hereunder and no Loan may be requested after January 31, 1996.
Each Fixed Rate Loan shall be in an amount not less than $500,000.
<PAGE>
2. Prepayment. Subject to the indemnification agreement set forth in
paragraph 3 hereof with respect to Fixed Rate Loans, the borrower may prepay any
Loan at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty. Each such
prepayment shall be made together with interest accrued thereon to and including
the date of prepayment.
3. Indemnity; Yield Protection. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the
bank against any loss or expense which the bank may sustain or incur as a
consequence of any of the following:
(a) the failure of the Borrower to borrow a Fixed Rate Loan after agreement
shall have been reached on the amount, interest rate and Interest Period
thereof;
(b) the receipt or recovery by the Bank, whether by voluntary prepayment,
acceleration or otherwise, of all or any part of a Fixed Rate Loan prior to the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; or
(c) the conversion, prior to the last day of an applicable Interest Period,
of one type of Fixed Rate Loan into another type of Fixed Rate Loan or into a
Prime Loan.
Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, the amount to be paid by the
borrower to the bank in order to so indemnify the Bank for any loss occasioned
by any of the events described in the Preceding paragraph, and as liquidated
damages therefor, shall be equal to the excess, discounted to its present value
as of the date paid to the Bank, of (i) the amount of interest which otherwise
would have accrued on the principal amount so received, recovered, converted or
not borrowed during the period (the "Indemnity Period") commencing with the date
of such receipt, recovery, conversion, or failure to borrow to the last day of
the applicable Interest Period for such Fixed Rate Loan at the rate of interest
applicable to such Loan (or the rate of interest agreed to in the case of a
failure to borrow) provided for herein (prior to default) over (ii) the amount
of interest which would be earned by the Bank during the Indemnity Period if it
invested the principal amount so received, recovered, converted or not borrowed
at the rate per annum determined by the Bank as the rate it would bid in the
London interbank market for a deposit of Eurodollars in an amount approximately
equal to such principal amount for a period of time comparable to the Indemnity
Period.
A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3
setting forth the basis and method of determining such amounts shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the determination by the Bank set forth
<PAGE>
therein if made reasonably and in good faith. The Borrower shall pay any
amounts so certified to it by the bank within 10 days of receipt of any such
certificate. For purposes of this Section, all referenced to the "Bank"
shall be deemed to include any participant in the Commitment and/or Loans.
The indemnities set forth herein shall survive payment in full of all Fixed
Rate Loans and all other Loans made pursuant to this Agreement.
4. Increased Costs. If the Bank determines that the effect of any
applicable law or government regulation, guideline or order or the
interpretation thereof by any governmental authority charged with the
administration thereof (such as, for example, a change in official reserve
requirements which the bank is required to maintain in respect of loans or
deposits or other funds procured for funding such loans) is to increase the cost
of the Bank of making or continuing Fixed Rate Loans hereunder or to reduce the
amount of any payment of principal or interest receivable by the bank thereon,
then the Borrower will pay to the Bank on demand such additional amounts as the
Bank may determine to be required to compensate the Bank for such additional
costs or reduction. Any additional payment under this section will be computed
from the effective date at which such additional costs have to be borne by the
bank. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 4 setting forth the basis and method of determining such amounts shall
be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the determination by the Bank set
forth therein if made reasonably and in good faith. The Borrower shall pay any
amounts so certified to it by the bank within 10 days of receipt of any such
certificate.
5. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on
the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a
Eurodollar Loan, the Bank shall have determined (i) that dollar deposits in the
amount of the requested principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan are not
generally available in the London interbank market, (ii) that the rate at which
such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining such Eurodollar Loan during such
Interest Period, or (iii) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining
the Eurodollar Rate, the Bank shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give
written or telex notice of such determination to the Borrower.
In the event of any such determination, until the circumstances giving rise to
such notice no longer exist, no Eurodollar Loans will be made hereunder. Each
determination by the Bank hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
<PAGE>
6. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, if any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation
thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration or
interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for the bank to make or maintain
any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower, the Bank may:
(i) declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter be made
by the Bank hereunder, whereupon the Borrower shall be
prohibited from requesting Eurodollar Loans from the Bank hereunder
unless such declaration is subsequently withdrawn; and
(ii) require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it
be converted to Prime Loans, in which event (x) all such
Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to Prime Loans as of
the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below
and (y) all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise
have been applied to repay the converted Eurodollar Loans shall instead
by applied to repay the Prime Loans resulting from the conversion of
such Eurodollar Loans.
(b) For purposes of this Section 6, a notice to the Borrower by
by the Bank pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall be effective, if
lawful, on the last day of the then current Interest Period; in all
other cases, such notice shall be effective on the day of receipt by
the Borrower.
7. Warranties and Representations. The Borrower represents and warrants
that: a) it is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation and is qualified to do

or undertaking to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or its property
may be bound or affected; c) no authorization or approval or other action by,

(For Explanation See Reverse Side)
Date: January 1, 1995
396 days after date, the obligor promises to pay to the order of Bank the
principal sum of $ 10,000,000.00. The obligor will also pay interest upon the
unpaid principal balance from date until maturity at the Note Rate specified
below. Interest payment will be due on the 25th of each month and upon maturity.
Should the obligor fail for any reason to pay this note in full on the maturity
date or on the date of acceleration of payment, the obligor further promises to
pay (a) interest on the unpaid amount from such date until the date of final
payment at a Default Rate equal to the Note Rate plus 4%, and (b) a late fee
equal to five percent (5%) of any amount that remains wholly or partially unpaid
for more than fifteen (15) days after such amount was due and payable, not to
exceed the sum of fifty dollars ($50.00). Should legal action or any attorney at
law be utilized to collect any amount due hereunder, the obligor further
promises to pay all costs of collection, including 15% of such unpaid amount as
attorneys' fees. All amounts due hereunder may be paid at any office of Bank.
The Note Rate hereon shall be either: 1) London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR), adjusted for reserves, plus 0.75% per annum, available in borrowing
periods of 30,60,90 or 180 days; or 2) Trust Company Bank Secondary CD Rate,
adjusted for reserves and assessment, plus 0.75% per annum, available in
borrowing periods of 30, 60, 90 and 180 days.
If not stated above, the Note Rate in effect on the date this note is
executed is 6 %.
The amount of interest accruing and payable hereundershall be calculated by
multiplying the principal balance outstanding each day by 1/360th of the Note
Rate on such day and adding together the daily interest amounts. The principal
balance of this note shall conclusively be deemed to be the unpaid principal
balance appearing on the Bank's records unless such records are manifestly in
error.
As security for the payment of this and any other liability of any obligor
to the holder, direct or contingent, irrespective of the nature of such
liability or the time it arises, each obligor hereby grants a security interest
to the holder in all property of such obligor in or coming into the possession,
control or custody of the holder, or in which the holder has or hereafter
acquires a lien, security interest, or other right. Upon default, holder may,
without notice, immediately take possession of and then sell or otherwise
dispose of the collateral, signing any necessary documents as obligor's attorney
in fact, and apply the proceeds against any liability of obligor to holder. Upon
demand, each obligor will furnish such additional collateral, and execute any
appropriate documents related thereto, deemed necessary by the holder for its
security. Each obligor further authorizes the holder, without notice, to set-off
any deposit or account and apply any indebtedness due or to become due from the
holder to the obligor in satisfaction of any liability described in this
paragraph, whether or not matured. The holder may, without notice, transfer or
register any property constituting security for this note into its or its
nominee name with or without any indication of its security interest therein.
This note shall immediately mature and become due and payable, without
notice or demand, upon the filing of any petition or the commencement of any
proceeding by any Debtor for relief under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, or any
law relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness, debtor
reorganization, or composition or extension of debt. Furthermore, this note
shall, at the option of the holder, immediately mature and become due and
payable, without notice or demand, upon the happening of any one or more of the
following events: (1) nonpayment on the due date of any amount due hereunder;
(2) failure of any Debtor ro perform any other obligation to the holder; (3)
failure of any Debtor to pay when due any amount owed another creditor under a
<PAGE>
written agreement calling for the payment of money; (4) the death or declaration
of incompetence of any Debtor; (5) a reasonable belief on the part of the holder
that any Debtor is unable to pay his obligations when due or is otherwise
insolvent; (6) the filing of any petition or the commencement of any proceeding
