1.    CREDIT FACILITIES.

      1.1   SCOPE. This agreement governs Facility A and Facility B, and, unless
            otherwise agreed to in writing by the Bank and the Borrower or
            prohibited by applicable law, governs the Credit Facilities.

      1.2   FACILITY A (LINE OF CREDIT). The Bank has approved a credit facility
            to the Borrower in the principal sum not to exceed $1,500,000.00 in
            the aggregate at any one time outstanding ("Facility A"). Credit
            under Facility A shall be repayable as set forth in a Line of Credit
            Note executed concurrently with this agreement, and any renewals,
            modifications or extensions thereof. The proceeds of Facility A
            shall be used for the following purpose: to provide working funds
            and commercial letters of credit.

            LETTER OF CREDIT SUB-LIMIT. At any time the Borrower is entitled to
            an advance under Facility A, the Bank agrees to issue letters of
            credit for the account of the Borrower in an amount not in excess of
            the maximum advance that the Borrower would then be entitled to
            obtain under Facility A, provided that (a) the aggregate maximum
            available amount which is drawn and unreimbursed or may be drawn
            under all letters of credit which are outstanding at any time,
            including without limitation all letters of credit issued for the
            account of the Borrower which are outstanding on the date of the
            Line of Credit Note, shall not exceed $1,000,000.00, (b) the
            issuance of any letter of credit with an expiration date beyond the
            maturity date of the Line of Credit Note shall be entirely at the
            discretion of the Bank, (c) any letter of credit shall be a
            commercial letter of credit and the form of the requested letter of
            credit shall be satisfactory to the Bank, in the Bank's sole
            discretion, and (d) the Borrower shall have executed an application
            and reimbursement agreement for any letter of credit in the Bank's
            standard form. While any letter of credit is outstanding, the
            maximum amount of advances that may be outstanding under the Line of
            Credit Note shall be automatically reduced by the maximum amount
            available to be drawn under any and all such letters of credit. The
            Borrower shall pay the Bank a fee for each commercial letter of
            credit that is issued, equal to the greater of $100.00 or 1.00% of
            the original maximum available amount of such commercial letter of
            credit. No credit shall be given for fees paid due to early
            termination of any letter of credit. The Borrower shall also pay the
            Bank's standard transaction fees with respect to any transactions
            occurring on an account of any letter of credit. Each fee shall be
            payable when the related letter of credit is issued, and transaction
            fees shall be payable upon completion of the transaction as to which
            they are charged. All fees may be debited by the Bank to any deposit
            account of the Borrower carried with the Bank without further
            authority and, in any event, shall be paid by the Borrower within
            ten (10) days following billing.

      1.3   FACILITY B (LINE OF CREDIT). The Bank has approved a credit facility
            to the Borrower in the principal sum not to exceed $1,000,000.00 in

            under Facility B shall be repayable as set forth in a Line of Credit
            Note executed concurrently with this agreement, and any renewals,
            modifications or extensions thereof. The proceeds of Facility B
            shall be used for the following purpose: to provide working capital.

      1.4   BORROWING BASE. The aggregate principal amount of advances
            outstanding at any one time under Facility A and B shall not exceed
            the lesser of the Borrowing Base or $2,500,000.00. If at any time

            Facility A and B plus the aggregate maximum amount drawn and
            unreimbursed or available to be drawn under all outstanding letters
            of credit issued by the Bank for the account of the Borrower under
            the letter of credit sub-limit exceeds the Borrowing Base, the
            Borrower shall immediately pay to the Bank an amount equal to the
            difference between such aggregate principal amount of advances and
            the Borrowing Base. "Borrowing Base" means the aggregate of:

      maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise, or if a default by anyone
      occurs under the terms of this agreement, the Notes or any agreement

8.    MISCELLANEOUS.

      8.1   NOTICE. Any notices and demands under or related to this document
            shall be in writing and delivered to the intended party at its
            address stated herein, and if to the Bank, at its main office if no
            other address of the Bank is specified herein, by one of the
            following means: (a) by hand, (b) by a nationally recognized
            overnight courier service, or (c) by certified mail, postage

            service, or (c) on the third Delivery Day after the notice is

      8.2   No WAIVER. No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any
            right or remedy waives that right or remedy. No single or partial
            exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy precludes any other
            future exercise of it or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
            No waiver or indulgence by the Bank of any default is effective
            unless it is in writing and signed by the Bank, nor shall a waiver
            on one occasion bar or waive that right on any future occasion.

      8.3   INTEGRATION. This agreement, the Notes, and any agreement related to
            the Credit Facilities embody the entire agreement and understanding
            between the Borrower and the Bank and supersede all prior agreements
            and understandings relating to their subject matter. If any one or
            more of the obligations of the Borrower under this agreement or the
            Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the
            validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations
            of the Borrower shall not in any way be affected or impaired, and
            the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in one jurisdiction
            shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the
            obligations of the Borrower under this agreement or the Notes in any
            other jurisdiction.

      8.4   JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. Each Borrower, if more than one, is
            jointly and severally liable.

      8.5   GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This agreement is delivered in the State of
            Arizona and governed by Arizona law (without giving effect to its
            laws of conflicts). The Borrower agrees that any legal action or
            proceeding with respect to any of its obligations under this
            agreement may be brought by the Bank in any state or federal court
            located in the State of Arizona, as the Bank in its sole discretion
            may elect. By the execution and delivery of this agreement, the
            Borrower submits to and accepts, for itself and in respect of its
            property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive
            jurisdiction of those courts. The Borrower waives any claim that the
            State of Arizona is not a convenient forum or the proper venue for
            any such suit, action or proceeding.

      8.6   CAPTIONS. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and
            do not affect the interpretation of this agreement.

      8.7   SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES OF THE BORROWER. To the extent the
            context of any provisions of this agreement makes it appropriate,
            including without limitation any representation, warranty or
            covenant, the word "Borrower" as used in this agreement shall
            include all of the Borrower's subsidiaries and affiliates.
            Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, under no circumstances shall
            this agreement be construed to require the Bank to make any loan or
            other financial accommodation to any of the Borrower's subsidiaries
            or affiliates.

      8.8   SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Borrower understands
            and agrees that in extending the Credit Facilities, the Bank is
            relying on all representations, warranties, and covenants made by
            the Borrower in this agreement or in any certificate or other
            instrument delivered by the Borrower to the Bank under this
            agreement. The Borrower further agrees that regardless of any
            investigation made by the Bank, all such representations, warranties
            and covenants will survive the making of the Credit Facilities and
            delivery to the Bank of this agreement, shall be continuing in
            nature, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as
            the Borrower's indebtedness to the Bank shall be paid in full.

      8.9   NON-LIABILITY OF THE BANK The relationship between the Borrower and
            the Bank created by this agreement is strictly a debtor and creditor
            relationship and not fiduciary in nature, nor is the relationship to
            be construed as creating any partnership or joint venture between
            the Bank and the Borrower. The Borrower is exercising the Borrower's
            own judgement with respect to the Borrower's business. All
            information supplied to the Bank is for the Bank's protection only
            and no other party is entitled to rely on such information. There is
            no duty for Bank to review, inspect, supervise or inform the
            Borrower of any matter with respect to the Borrower's business. The
            Bank and the Borrower intend that the


                                       7
<PAGE>
            Bank may reasonably rely on all information supplied by the Borrower
            to the Bank, together with all representations and warranties given
            by the Borrower to the Bank, without investigation or confirmation
            by the Bank and that any investigation or failure to investigate
            will not diminish the Bank's right to so rely.

      8.10  INDEMNIFICATION OF THE BANK. The Borrower agrees to indemnify,
            defend and hold the Bank and BANK ONE CORPORATION, or any of its
            subsidiaries or affiliates or their successors, and each of their
            respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents
            (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") harmless from any and all
            obligations, claims, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, fines,
            forfeitures, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
            disbursements of any kind or nature (including, without limitation,
            any Indemnified Person's attorneys' fees) (collectively, the
            "Claims") which may be imposed upon, incurred by or assessed against
            any Indemnified Person (whether or not caused by any Indemnified
            Person's sole, concurrent, or contributory negligence) arising out
            of or relating to this agreement; the exercise of the rights and
            remedies granted under this agreement (including, without
            limitation, the enforcement of this agreement and the defense of any
            Indemnified Person's action or inaction in connection with this
            agreement); and in connection with the Borrower's failure to perform
            all of the Borrower's obligations under this agreement, except to
            the limited extent that the Claims against any such Indemnified
            Person are proximately caused by such Indemnified Person's willful
            misconduct. The indemnification provided for in this section shall
            survive the termination of this agreement and shall extend to and
            continue to benefit each individual or entity who is or has at any
            time been an Indemnified Person.

            The Borrower's indemnity obligations under this section shall not in
            any way be affected by the presence or absence of covering
            insurance, or by the amount of such insurance or by the failure or
            refusal of any insurance carrier to perform any obligation on its
            part under any insurance policy or policies affecting the Borrower's
            assets or the Borrower's business activities. Should any Claim be
            made or brought against any Indemnified Person by reason of any
            event as to which the Borrower's indemnification obligations apply,
            then, upon any Indemnified Person's demand, the Borrower, at its
            sole cost and expense, shall defend such Claim in the Borrower's
            name, if necessary, by the attorneys for the Borrower's insurance
            carrier (if such Claim is covered by insurance), or otherwise by
            such attorneys as any Indemnified Person shall approve. Any
            Indemnified Person may also engage its own attorneys at its
            reasonable discretion to defend the Borrower and to assist in its
            defense and the Borrower agrees to pay the fees and disbursements of
            such attorneys.

      8.11  COUNTERPARTS. This agreement may be executed in multiple
            counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an
            original, but all such counterparts, taken together, shall
            constitute one and the same agreement.

      8.12  SOLE DISCRETION OF THE BANK. Whenever the Bank's consent or approval
            is required under this agreement, the decision as to whether or not
            to consent or approve shall be in the sole and exclusive discretion
            of the Bank and the Bank's decision shall be final and conclusive.

      8.13  ADVICE OF COUNSEL. The Borrower acknowledges that it has been
            advised by counsel, or had the opportunity to be advised by counsel,
            in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this agreement and any
            documents executed and delivered in connection with the Credit
            Facilities.

      8.14  RECOVERY OF ADDITIONAL COSTS. If the imposition of or any change in
            any law, rule, regulation, or guideline, or the interpretation or
            application of any thereof by any court or administrative or
            governmental authority (including any request or policy not having
            the force of law) shall impose, modify, or make applicable any taxes
            (except federal, state, or local income or franchise taxes imposed
            on the Bank), reserve requirements, capital adequacy requirements,
            or other obligations which would (A) increase the cost to the Bank
            for extending or maintaining the Credit Facilities, (B) reduce the
            amounts payable to the Bank under the Credit Facilities, or (C)
            reduce the rate of return on the Bank's capital as a consequence of
            the Bank's obligations with respect to the Credit Facilities, then
            the Borrower agrees to pay the Bank such additional amounts as will
            compensate the Bank therefor, within five (5) days after the Bank's
            written demand for such payment. The Bank's demand shall be
            accompanied by an explanation of such imposition or charge and a
            calculation in reasonable detail of the additional amounts payable
            by the Borrower, which explanation and calculations shall be
            conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

      8.15  CONFLICTING TERMS. If this agreement is inconsistent with any
            provision in any agreement related to the Credit Facilities, the
            Bank shall determine, in the Bank's sole and absolute discretion,
            which of the provisions shall control any such inconsistency.

            its out-of-pocket costs and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees
            (including the fees of in-house counsel) incurred in connection with
            the development, preparation and execution of, and in connection
            with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under, this
            agreement, any amendment, supplement, or modification thereto, and
            any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith.
            These costs and expenses include without limitation any costs or
            expenses incurred by the Bank in any bankruptcy, reorganization,
            insolvency or other similar proceeding.

      IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE

PROMISE TO PAY. On or before May 31,2003, for value received, TASER

States of America, the sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/l00
Dollars ($1,500,000.00) or such lesser sum as is indicated on Bank records, plus
interest as-provided below.

DEFINITIONS. As used in this Note, the following terms have the following
respective meanings:

"ADVANCE" means a Eurodollar Advance or a Prime Rate Advance and "ADVANCES"
means all Eurodollar Advances and all Prime Rate Advances under this Note.

"APPLICABLE MARGIN" means with respect to any Prime Rate Advance, 0.00% per
annum and with respect to any Eurodollar Advance, 3.00% per annum.

"BUSINESS DAY" means (i) with respect to any borrowing, payment or rate
selection of Eurodollar Advances, a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on
which banks generally are open in Arizona and/or New York for the conduct of
substantially all of their commercial lending activities and on which dealings

which national banking associations are authorized to be closed.

"EURODOLLAR BASE RATE" means, with respect to the relevant Interest Period, the
applicable British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate for deposits in U.S. dollars
as reported by any generally recognized financial information service as of
11:OO a.m. (London time) two Eurodollar Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period, provided
that, if no such British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate is available to the
Bank, the applicable Eurodollar Base Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall
instead be the rate determined by the Bank to be the rate at which BANK ONE
CORPORATION or one of its affiliate banks offers to place deposits in U.S.
dollars with first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately
11:00 a.m. (London time) two Eurodollar Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, in the approximate amount of the principal amount outstanding
on such date and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period.

"EURODOLLAR ADVANCE" means any borrowing under this Note when and to the extent
that its interest rate is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate.

"EURODOLLAR RATE" means, with respect to a Eurodollar Advance for the relevant
Interest Period, the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin plus (ii) the quotient of
(a) the Eurodollar Base Rate applicable to such Interest Period, divided by (b)
one minus the Reserve Requirement (expressed as a decimal) applicable to such
Interest Period.

"INTEREST PERIOD" means, with respect to a Eurodollar Advance, a period of one
(l), two (2), three (3) or six (6) month(s) commencing on a Business Day
selected by the Borrower pursuant to this Note. Such Interest Period shall end
on the day which corresponds numerically to such date one (l), two (2), three
(3) or six (6) month(s) thereafter, as applicable, provided, however, that if
there is no such numerically corresponding day in such first, second, third or
sixth succeeding month(s), as applicable, such Interest Period shall end on the
last Business Day of such first, second, third or sixth succeeding month(s), as
applicable. If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a
Business Day, such Interest Period shall end on the next succeeding Business
Day, provided, however, that if said next succeeding Business Day falls in a new
calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding
Business Day.

"PRIME RATE" means a rate per annum equal to the prime rate of interest
announced from time to time by the Bank or its parent (which is not necessarily
the lowest rate charged to any customer), changing when and as said prime rate
changes.

"PRIME RATE ADVANCE" means any Advance under this Note when and to the extent
that its interest rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate.

"PRINCIPAL PAYMENT DATE" is defined in the paragraph entitled "Principal
Payments" below.

other reserves) which is imposed under Regulation D.

INTEREST RATES. The Advance(s) evidenced by this Note may be drawn down and
remain outstanding as up to five (5) Eurodollar Advances and/or a Prime Rate
Advance. The Borrower shall pay interest to the Bank on the outstanding and
unpaid principal amount of each Prime Rate Advance at the Prime Rate plus the
Applicable Margin and each Eurodollar Advance at the Eurodollar Rate. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year
of 360 days. In no event shall the interest rate applicable to any Advance
exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Any interest payment which would for any
reason be deemed unlawful under applicable law shall be applied to principal.

Borrower hereby agrees to pay an effective rate of interest that is the sum of
the interest rate provided for in this Note together with any additional rate of
interest resulting from any other charges of interest or in the nature paid or
to be paid in connection with this Note or the Related Documents.

BANK RECORDS. The Bank shall, in the ordinary course of business, make notations
in its records of the date, amount, interest rate and Interest Period of each
Advance hereunder, the amount of each payment on the Advances, and other
information. Such records shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
as to the outstanding principal balance of and interest rate or rates applicable
to this Note.

NOTICE AND MANNER OF ELECTING INTEREST RATES ON ADVANCES. The Borrower shall
give the Bank written notice (effective upon receipt) of the Borrower's intent
to draw down an Advance under this Note no later than 11:00 a.m. Mountain time,
one (1) Business Day before disbursement, if the full amount of the drawn
Advance is to be disbursed as a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business Days
before disbursement, if any part of such Advance is to be disbursed as a
Eurodollar Advance. The Borrower's notice must specify: (a) the disbursement
date, (b) the amount of each Advance, (c) the type of each Advance (Prime Rate
Advance or Eurodollar Advance), and (d) for each Eurodollar Advance, the
duration of the applicable Interest Period. Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in
a minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars ($500,000.00), with
multiples of One Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars ($l00,0000.00). All notices
under this paragraph are irrevocable. By the Bank's close of business on the
disbursement date and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth herein and in
any other of the Related Documents, the Bank shall disburse the requested
Advances in immediately available funds by crediting the amount of such Advances
to the Borrower's account with the Bank.

CONVERSION AND RENEWALS. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert one
type of Advance into another or to renew any Advance by giving the Bank written
notice no later than 11:00 a.m. Mountain time, one (1) Business Day before
conversion into a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business Days before
conversion into or renewal of a Eurodollar Advance, specifying: (a) the renewal
or conversion date, (b) the amount of the Advance to be converted or renewed,
(c) in the case of conversion, the type of Advance to be converted into (Prime
Rate Advance or Eurodollar Advance), and (d) in the case of renewals of or
conversion into a Eurodollar Advance, the applicable Interest Period, provided
that (i) the minimum principal amount of each Eurodollar Advance outstanding
after a renewal or conversion shall be Five Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars
($500,000.00), with multiples of One Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars
($l00,000.00) and (ii) a Eurodollar Advance can only be converted on the last
day of the Interest Period for the Advance. All notices given under this
paragraph are irrevocable. If the Borrower fails to give the Bank the notice
specified above for the renewal or conversion of a Eurodollar Advance by 11:00
a.m. Mountain time three (3) Business Days before the end of the Interest Period
for that Advance, the Advance shall automatically be converted to a Prime Rate
Advance on the last day of the Interest Period for the Advance.

INTEREST PAYMENTS. Interest on the Advances shall be paid as follows:

A. For each Prime Rate Advance, on the last day of each month beginning with the
first month following disbursement of the Advance or following conversion of an
Advance into a Prime Rate Advance, and at the maturity or conversion of the
Advance into a Eurodollar Advance;

B. For each Eurodollar Advance, on the last day of the Interest Period for the
Advance and, if the Interest Period is longer than three months, at three-month
intervals beginning with the day three months from the date the Advance is
disbursed.

PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. All outstanding principal and interest is due and payable in
full on May 31,2003, which is defined herein as the "Principal Payment Date".
The Borrower shall select interest rates and Interest Periods such that on each
Principal Payment Date the sum of the principal amount of the Prime Rate Advance
outstanding on that date plus the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar
Advances with Interest Periods ending on that date is greater than or equal to
the principal payment due on that date. Any election which does not comply with
this requirement will be invalid and the Bank may, but will not be required to,
honor such election.


                                       2
<PAGE>
OVERDUE AMOUNTS. Any principal amount not paid when due (at maturity, by
acceleration, or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter until paid in full,
payable on demand, at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the
Applicable Margin plus three percent (3.00%).

PREPAYMENT. The Borrower may prepay all or any part of any Prime Rate Advance at
any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower may prepay any Eurodollar
Advance only at the end of an Interest Period.

FUNDING LOSS INDEMNIFICATION. Upon the Banks request, the Borrower shall pay the
Bank amounts sufficient (in the Bank's reasonable opinion) to compensate it for
any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of:

A. Any payment of a Eurodollar Advance on a date other than the last day of the
Interest Period for the Advance, including, without limitation, acceleration of
the Advances by the Bank pursuant to this Note or the Related Documents; or

B. Any failure by the Borrower to borrow or renew a Eurodollar Advance on the
date specified in the relevant notice from the Borrower to the Bank.

ADDITIONAL COSTS. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government
rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the
Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental
authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by
the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether
or not having the force of law), shall (a) affect the basis of taxation of
payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Note or
the Related Documents (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the
Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of
the jurisdiction in which the Bank has its principal office), or (b) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by
the Bank, or (c) impose any other condition with respect to this Note or the
Related Documents and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost
to the Bank of maintaining any Eurodollar Advance or to reduce the amount of any
sum receivable by the Bank on such an Advance, or (d) affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank (or any corporation
controlling the Bank) and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is
increased by or based upon the existence of the Bank's obligations under this
Note or the Related Documents and the increase has the effect of reducing the
rate of return on the Bank's (or its controlling corporation's) capital as a
consequence of the obligations under this Note or the Related Documents to a
level below that which the Bank (or its controlling corporation) could have
achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material,
then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, upon request by the
Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased
cost or reduced sum receivable. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances
described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the
Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis
for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A
statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable,
prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the
Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error in computation.

ILLEGALITY. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or
regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or
the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged
with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any
guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the
force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or
fund the Eurodollar Advances, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the
outstanding principal amount of the Eurodollar Advances, together with accrued
interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the
Related Documents on account of the Eurodollar Advances shall be repaid (a)
immediately upon the Bank's demand if such change or compliance with such
requests, in the Bank's judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the
expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of
any such change or request provided, however, that subject to the terms and
conditions of this Note and the Related Documents the Borrower shall be entitled
to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar
Advance repaid in accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the
same amount.

INABILITY TO DETERMINE INTEREST RATE. If the Bank determines that (a) quotations
of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of
Eurodollar Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the
relevant maturities for purposes of determining the interest rate on a
Eurodollar Advance as provided in this Note, or (b) the relevant interest rates
referred to in the definition of Eurodollar Rate do not accurately cover the
cost to the Bank of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the Bank
shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i)
the obligation of the Bank to make Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended until
the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the
suspension no longer exists, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then
outstanding principal amount of each Eurodollar Advance, together with accrued
interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the
Advance, provided, however, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Note and the Related Documents, the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously
replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar Advance repaid in
accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the same amount.

OBLIGATIONS DUE ON NON-BUSINESS DAY. Whenever any payment under this Note
becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, if no default then
exists under this Note, the maturity of the payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, except, in the case of a Eurodollar Advance, if
the result of the extension would be to extend the payment into another calendar
month, the payment must be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

MATTERS REGARDING PAYMENT. The Borrower will pay the Bank at the Bank's address
shown above or at such other place as the Bank may designate. Payments shall be
allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of the Bank
unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law. Acceptance by the Bank of
any payment which is less than the payment due at the time shall not constitute
a waiver of the Bank's right to receive payment in full at that time or any
other time.

LATE FEE. If any payment is not received by the Bank within ten (10) days after
its due date, the Bank may assess and the Borrower agrees to pay a late fee
equal to the greater of: (a) five percent (5.00%) of the past due amount or (b)
Twenty Five and 00/l00 Dollars ($25.00), up to the maximum amount of One
Thousand Five Hundred and 00/l00 Dollars ($1,500.00) per late charge.

BUSINESS LOAN. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Note evidences a
loan for a business, commercial, agricultural or similar commercial enterprise
purpose, and that all advances made under this Note shall not be used for any
personal, family or household purpose.

CREDIT FACILITY. The Bank has approved a credit facility to the Borrower in a
principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The credit facility
is in the form of advances made from time to time by the Bank to the Borrower.
This Note evidences the Borrower's obligation to repay those advances. The
aggregate principal amount of debt evidenced by this Note is the amount
reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank. Until the earliest of
maturity, the occurrence of any default, or the occurrence of any event that
would constitute the occurrence of any default but for the lapse of time until
the end of any grace or cure period, the Borrower may borrow, pay down and
reborrow under this Note.

LIABILITIES. The term "Liabilities" in this Note means all obligations,
indebtedness and liabilities of the Borrower to any one or more of the Bank,
BANK ONE CORPORATION, and any of their subsidiaries, affiliates or successors,
now existing or later arising, including, without limitation, all loans,
advances, interest, costs, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness,
lease obligations, or obligations relating to any Rate Management Transaction,
all monetary obligations incurred or accrued during the pendency of any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceedings, regardless of
whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding, and all renewals, extensions,
modifications, consolidations or substitutions of any of the foregoing, whether
the Borrower may be liable jointly with others or individually liable as a
debtor, maker, co-maker, drawer, endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise, and
whether voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute or
contingent, direct or indirect, liquidated or unliquidated. The term "Rate
Management Transaction" in this Note means any transaction (including an
agreement with respect thereto) now existing or hereafter entered into among the
Borrower, the Bank or BANK ONE CORPORATION, or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates or their successors, which is a rate swap, basis swap, forward rate

equity or equity index option, bond option, interest rate option, foreign
exchange transaction, cap transaction, floor transaction, collar transaction,
forward transaction, currency swap transaction, cross-currency rate swap
transaction, currency option or any other similar transaction (including any
option with respect to any of these transactions) or any combination thereof,
whether linked to one or more interest rates, foreign currencies, commodity
prices, equity prices or other financial measures.

RELATED DOCUMENTS. The term "Related Documents" in this Note means all loan
agreements, credit agreements, reimbursement agreements, security agreements,
mortgages, deeds of trust, pledge agreements, assignments, guaranties, or any
other instrument or document executed in connection with this Note or in
connection with any of the Liabilities.

SECURITY. The term "Collateral" in this Note means all real or personal property
described in all security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages, deeds of
trust, assignments, or other instruments now or hereafter executed in connection
with this Note or in connection with any of the Liabilities. If applicable, the
Collateral secures the payment of this Note and the Liabilities.

BANK'S RIGHT OF SETOFF. In addition to the Collateral, if any, the Borrower
grants to the Bank a security interest in, and the Bank is authorized to setoff
and apply, all Accounts, Securities and Other Property, and Bank Debt against
any and all Liabilities of the Borrower. This right of setoff may be exercised
at any time and from time to time, and without prior notice to the Borrower.
This security interest and right of setoff may be enforced or exercised by the
Bank regardless of whether or not the Bank has made any demand under this
paragraph or whether the Liabilities are contingent, matured, or unmatured. Any
delay, neglect or conduct by the Bank in exercising its rights under this
paragraph will not be a waiver of the right to exercise this right of setoff or
enforce this security interest. The rights of the Bank under this paragraph are
in addition to other rights the Bank may have in the Related Documents or by
law. In this paragraph: (a) the term "Accounts" means any and all accounts and
deposits of the Borrower (whether general, special, time, demand, provisional or
final) at any time held by the Bank (including all Accounts held jointly with
another, but excluding any IRA or Keogh Account, or any trust Account in which a
security interest would be prohibited by law); (b) the term "Securities and
Other Property" means any and all securities and other property of the Borrower
in the custody, possession or control

                                       4

(c) the term "Bank Debt" means all indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank,
to or for the credit or account of the Borrower.

and delivery of this Note and the performance of the obligations it imposes do
not violate any law, conflict with any agreement by which it is bound, or
require the consent or approval of any governmental authority or other third
party; (b) this Note is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable according to
its terms; and (c) all balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and other
financial statements furnished to the Bank in connection with the Liabilities

and adversely since those dates. Each Borrower, other than a natural person,
further represents that: (a) it is duly organized, existing and in good standing
pursuant to the laws under which it is organized; and (b) the execution and
delivery of this Note and the performance of the obligations it imposes (i) are

discharge of, or suspension of any rights and remedies against, any person who
may be liable for the payment of this Note. The Bank may waive or delay
enforcing any of its rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the

from the Borrower, shall at all times be subordinate to the full and prior
repayment to the Bank of the Liabilities. No party liable on this Note shall be
entitled to enforce or receive payment of any sums hereby subordinated until the

this paragraph shall be received by such party in trust for the Bank. Any party
liable on this Note agrees to stand still with regard to the Bank's enforcement
of its rights, including taking no action to delay, impede or otherwise
interfere with the Bank's rights to realize on the Collateral. The foregoing

amount equal to any income tax liability imposed on such party liable on this
Note attributable to an ownership interest in the Borrower, if any.

RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION. Any party liable on this Note waives and agrees not to
enforce any rights of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it may
have against the Borrower, any person liable on the Liabilities, or the
Collateral, until the Borrower and such party liable on this Note have fully
performed all their obligations to the Bank, even if those obligations are not
covered by this Note.

payment is received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, and all or
any part of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent
or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to
a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or
otherwise (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential
Payment"), then this Note shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated,
as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in possession of this Note,
and, to the extent of such payment or repayment by the Bank, the Liabilities or
part thereof intended to be satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment
had not been made.

applicable British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate for deposits in U.S. dollars
as reported by any generally recognized financial information service as of
11:00 a.m. (London time) two Eurodollar Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, and having a maturity equal to such Interest Period, provided
that, if no such British Bankers' Association LIBOR rate is available to the
Bank, the applicable Eurodollar Base Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall
instead be the rate determined by the Bank to be the rate at which BANK ONE
CORPORATION or one of its affiliate banks offers to place deposits in U.S.
dollars with first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately
1l:00 a.m. (London time) two Eurodollar Days prior to the first day of such
Interest Period, in the approximate amount of the principal amount outstanding

that its interest rate is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate.

"EURODOLLAR RATE" means, with respect to a Eurodollar Advance for the relevant
Interest Period, the sum of(i) the Applicable Margin plus (ii) the quotient of
(a) the Eurodollar Base Rate applicable to such Interest Period, divided by (b)

(3) or six (6) month(s) thereafter, as applicable, provided, however, that if
there is no such numerically corresponding day in such first, second, third or
sixth succeeding month(s), as applicable, such Interest Period shall end on the
last Business Day of such first, second, third or sixth succeeding month(s), as
applicable. If an Interest Period would otherwise end ON a day which is not a

calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding
Business Day.

announced from time to time by the Bank or its parent (which is not necessarily
the lowest rate charged to any customer), changing when and as said prime rate
changes.

Advance. The Borrower shall pay interest to the Bank on the outstanding and
unpaid principal amount of each Prime Rate Advance at the Prime Rate minus the
Applicable Margin and each Eurodollar Advance at the Eurodollar Rate. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year
of 360 days. In no event shall the interest rate applicable to any Advance
exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Any interest payment which would for any
reason be deemed unlawful under applicable law shall be applied to principal.

Borrower hereby agrees to pay an effective rate of interest that is the sum of
the interest rate provided for in this Note together with any additional rate of
interest resulting from any other charges of interest or in the nature paid or
to be paid in connection with this Note or the Related Documents.

BANK RECORDS. The Bank shall, in the ordinary course of business, make notations
in its records of the date, amount, interest rate and Interest Period of each
Advance hereunder, the amount of each payment on the Advances, and other
information. Such records shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
as to the outstanding principal balance of and interest rate or rates applicable
to this Note.

NOTICE AND MANNER OF ELECTING INTEREST RATES ON ADVANCES. The Borrower shall
give the Bank written notice (effective upon receipt) of the Borrower's intent
to draw down an Advance under this Note no later than 11:00 a.m. Mountain time,
one (1) Business Day before disbursement, if the full amount of the drawn
Advance is to be disbursed as a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business Days

Eurodollar Advance. The Borrower's notice must specify: (a) the disbursement
date, (b) the amount of each Advance, (c) the type of each Advance (Prime Rate
Advance or Eurodollar Advance), and (d) for each Eurodollar Advance, the
duration of the applicable Interest Period. Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in
a minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars ($500,000.00) with
multiples of One Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars ($l00,000.00). All notices
under this paragraph are irrevocable. By the Banks close of business on the
disbursement date and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth herein and in
any other of the Related Documents, the Bank shall disburse the requested
Advances in immediately available funds by crediting the amount of such Advances
to the Borrower's account with the Bank.

CONVERSION AND RENEWALS. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert one
type of Advance into another or to renew any Advance by giving the Bank written
notice no later than 11:00 a.m. Mountain time, one (1) Business Day before
conversion into a Prime Rate Advance and three (3) Business Days before
conversion into or renewal of a Eurodollar Advance, specifying: (a) the renewal
or conversion date, (b) the amount of the Advance to be converted or renewed,
(c) in the case of conversion, the type of Advance to be converted into (Prime
Rate Advance or Eurodollar Advance), and (d) in the case of renewals of or
conversion into a Eurodollar Advance, the applicable Interest Period, provided
that (i) the minimum principal amount of each Eurodollar Advance outstanding
after a renewal or conversion shall be Five Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars
($500,000.00), with multiples of One Hundred Thousand and 00/l00 Dollars
($l00,000.00) and (ii) a Eurodollar Advance can only be converted on the last
day of the Interest Period for the Advance. All notices given under this
paragraph are irrevocable. If the Borrower fails to give the Bank the notice
specified above for the renewal or conversion of a Eurodollar Advance by 11:00
a.m. Mountain time three (3) Business Days before the end of the Interest Period
for that Advance, the Advance shall automatically be converted to a Prime Rate
Advance on the last day of the Interest Period for the Advance.

INTEREST PAYMENTS. Interest on the Advances shall be paid as follows:

A . For each Prime Rate Advance, on the last day of each month beginning with
the first month following disbursement of the Advance or following conversion of
an Advance into a Prime Rate Advance, and at the maturity or conversion of the
Advance into a Eurodollar Advance;

B. For each Eurodollar Advance, on the last day of the Interest Period for the
Advance and, if the Interest Period is longer than three months, at three-month
intervals beginning with the day three months from the date the Advance is
disbursed.

PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. All outstanding principal and interest is due and payable in
full on May 3 1,2003, which is defined herein as the "Principal Payment Date".
The Borrower shall select interest rates and Interest Periods such that on each
Principal Payment Date the sum of the principal amount of the Prime Rate Advance
outstanding on that date plus the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar
Advances with Interest Periods ending on that date is greater than or equal to
the principal payment due on that date. Any election which does not comply with
this requirement will be invalid and the Bank may, but will not be required to,
honor such election.


                                        2

<PAGE>

OVERDUE AMOUNTS. Any principal amount not paid when due (at maturity, by
acceleration, or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter until paid in full,
payable on demand, at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the
Applicable Margin plus three percent (3.00%).

PREPAYMENT. The Borrower may prepay all or any part of any Prime Rate Advance at
any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower may prepay any Eurodollar
Advance only at the end of an Interest Period.

FUNDING LOSS INDEMNIFICATION. Upon the Banks request, the Borrower shall pay the
Bank amounts sufficient (in the Banks reasonable opinion) to compensate it for
any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of:

A. Any payment of a Eurodollar Advance on a date other than the last day of the
Interest Period for the Advance, including, without limitation, acceleration of
the Advances by the Bank pursuant to this Note or the Related Documents; or

B. Any failure by the Borrower to borrow or renew a Eurodollar Advance on the
date specified in the relevant notice from the Borrower to the Bank.

ADDITIONAL COSTS. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, government
rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the
Bank) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental
authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by
the Bank with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether
or not having the force of law), shall (a) affect the basis of taxation of
payments to the Bank of any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Note or
the Related Documents (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the
Bank by the jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority of
the jurisdiction in which the Bank has its principal office), or (b) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by
the Bank, or (c) impose any other condition with respect to this Note or the
Related Documents and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost
to the Bank of maintaining any Eurodollar Advance or to reduce the amount of any
sum receivable by the Bank on such an Advance, or (d) affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank (or any corporation
controlling the Bank) and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is
increased by or based upon the existence of the Banks obligations under this
Note or the Related Documents and the increase has the effect of reducing the
rate of return on the Banks (or its controlling corporation's) capital as a
consequence of the obligations under this Note or the Related Documents to a
level below that which the Bank (or its controlling corporation) could have
achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material,
then the Borrower shall pay to the Bank, from time to time, upon request by the
Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for the increased
cost or reduced sum receivable. Whenever the Bank shall learn of circumstances
described in this section which are likely to result in additional costs to the
Borrower, the Bank shall give prompt written notice to the Borrower of the basis
for and the estimated amount of any such anticipated additional costs. A
statement as to the amount of the increased cost or reduced sum receivable,
prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by the Bank and submitted by the
Bank to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error in computation.

ILLEGALITY. If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or
regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Bank) or
the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged
with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Bank with any
guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the
force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to maintain or
fund the Eurodollar Advances, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank, the
outstanding principal amount of the Eurodollar Advances, together with accrued
interest and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Note or the
Related Documents on account of the Eurodollar Advances shall be repaid (a)
immediately upon the Banks demand if such change or compliance with such
requests, in the Bank's judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the
expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of
any such change or request provided, however, that subject to the terms and
conditions of this Note and the Related Documents the Borrower shall be entitled
to simultaneously replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar
Advance repaid in accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the
same amount.

INABILITY TO DETERMINE INTEREST RATE. If the Bank determines that (a) quotations
of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of
Eurodollar Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the
relevant maturities for purposes of determining the interest rate on a
Eurodollar Advance as provided in this Note, or (b) the relevant interest rates
referred to in the definition of Eurodollar Rate do not accurately cover the
cost to the Bank of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the Bank
shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i)
the obligation of the Bank to make Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended until
the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the
suspension no longer exists, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then
outstanding principal amount of each Eurodollar Advance, together with accrued
interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the
Advance, provided, however, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Note and the Related Documents, the Borrower shall be entitled to simultaneously
replace the entire outstanding balance of any Eurodollar Advance repaid in
accordance with this section with a Prime Rate Advance in the same amount.

OBLIGATIONS DUE ON NON-BUSINESS DAY. Whenever any payment under this Note
becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, if no default then
exists under this Note, the maturity of the payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, except, in the case of a Eurodollar Advance, if
the result of the extension would be to extend the payment into another calendar
month, the payment must be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

MATTERS REGARDING PAYMENT. The Borrower will pay the Bank at the Bank's address
shown above or at such other place as the Bank may designate. Payments shall be
allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of the Bank
unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law. Acceptance by the Bank of
any payment which is less than the payment due at the time shall not constitute
a waiver of the Bank's right to receive payment in full at that time or any
other time.

LATE FEE. If any payment is not received by the Bank within ten (10) days after
its due date, the Bank may assess and the Borrower agrees to pay a late fee
equal to the greater of: (a) five percent (5.00%) of the past due amount or (b)
Twenty Five and 00/l00 Dollars ($25.00), up to the maximum amount of One
Thousand Five Hundred and 00/l00 Dollars ($1,500.00) per late charge.

BUSINESS LOAN. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Note evidences a
loan for a business, commercial, agricultural or similar commercial enterprise
purpose, and that all advances made under this Note shall not be used for any
personal, family or household purpose.

CREDIT FACILITY. The Bank has approved a credit facility to the Borrower in a
principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this Note. The credit facility
is in the form of advances made from time to time by the Bank to the Borrower.
This Note evidences the Borrower's obligation to repay those advances. The
aggregate principal amount of debt evidenced by this Note is the amount
reflected from time to time in the records of the Bank. Until the earliest of
maturity, the occurrence of any default, or the occurrence of any event that
would constitute the occurrence of any default but for the lapse of time until
the end of any grace or cure period, the Borrower may borrow, pay down and
reborrow under this Note.

LIABILITIES. The term "Liabilities" in this Note means all obligations,
indebtedness and liabilities of the Borrower to any one or more of the Bank,
BANK ONE CORPORATION, and any of their subsidiaries, affiliates or successors,
now existing or later arising, including, without limitation, all loans,
advances, interest, costs, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness,
lease obligations, or obligations relating to any Rate Management Transaction,
all monetary obligations incurred or accrued during the pendency of any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceedings, regardless of
whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding, and all renewals, extensions,
modifications, consolidations or substitutions of any of the foregoing, whether
the Borrower may be liable jointly with others or individually liable as a

RELATED DOCUMENTS. The term "Related Documents" in this Note means all loan

BANK'S RIGHT OF SETOFF. In addition to the Collateral, if any, the Borrower
grants to the Bank a security interest in, and the Bank is authorized to setoff
and apply, all Accounts, Securities and Other Property, and Bank Debt against
any and all Liabilities of the Borrower. This right of setoff may be exercised
at any time and from time to time, and without prior notice to the Borrower.
This security interest and right of setoff may be enforced or exercised by the
Bank regardless of whether or not the Bank has made any demand under this
paragraph or whether the Liabilities are contingent, matured, or unmatured. Any
delay, neglect or conduct by the Bank in exercising its rights under this
paragraph will not be a waiver of the right to exercise this right of setoff or
enforce this security interest. The rights of the Bank under this paragraph are
in addition to other rights the Bank may have in the Related Documents or by
law. In this paragraph: (a) the term "Accounts" means any and all accounts and
deposits of the Borrower (whether general, special, time, demand, provisional or

security interest would be prohibited by law); (b) the term "Securities and
Other Property" means any and all securities and other property of the Borrower
in the custody, possession or control

(c) the term "Bank Debt" means all indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank,
to or for the credit or account of the Borrower.

REPRESENTATIONS BY BORROWER. Each Borrower represents that: (a) the execution
and delivery of this Note and the performance of the obligations it imposes do
not violate any law, conflict with any agreement by which it is bound, or
require the consent or approval of any governmental authority or other third
party; (b) this Note is a valid and binding agreement, enforceable according to
its terms; and (c) all balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and other
financial statements furnished to the Bank in connection with the Liabilities
are accurate and fairly reflect the financial condition of the organizations and
persons to which they apply on their effective dates, including contingent
liabilities of every type, which financial condition has not changed materially
and adversely since those dates. Each Borrower, other than a natural person,
further represents that: (a) it is duly organized, existing and in good standing
pursuant to the laws under which it is organized; and (b) the execution and
delivery of this Note and the performance of the obligations it imposes (i) are

      bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, or similar laws of any
      jurisdiction, and they remain undismissed for thirty (30) days after
      commencement; or the Borrower or the Guarantor consents to the
      commencement of those proceedings.

10.   Any judgment is entered against the Borrower or any Guarantor, or any
      attachment, levy, or garnishment is issued against any property of the
      Borrower or any Guarantor.

      condition of the Borrower or any Guarantor that the Bank in good faith
      determines to be materially adverse.

14.   The Bank in good faith deems itself insecure.

otherwise, the Bank shall have all of the rights and remedies provided by any
law or agreement. The Bank is authorized to cause all or any part of the
Collateral to be transferred to or registered in its name or in the name of any
other person or business entity, with or without designating the capacity of
that nominee. Without limiting any other available remedy, the Borrower is
liable for any deficiency remaining after disposition of any Collateral. The
Borrower is liable to the Bank for all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred in the making or collection of this Note, including without

WAIVERS. ANY party liable on this Note waives (a) to the extent permitted by
law, all rights and benefits under any laws or statutes regarding sureties, as
may be amended; (b) any right to receive notice of the following matters before
the Bank enforces any of its rights: (i) the Bank's acceptance of this Note,
(ii) any credit that the Bank extends to the Borrower, (iii) the Borrower's
default, (iv) any demand, diligence, presentment, dishonor and protest, or (v)
any action that the Bank takes regarding the Borrower, anyone else, any
Collateral, or any of the Liabilities, that it might be entitled to by law or
under any other agreement; (c) any right to require the Bank to proceed against
the Borrower, any other obligor or guarantor of the Liabilities, or any
Collateral, or pursue any remedy in the Bank's power to pursue; (d) any defense
based on any claim that any endorser or other parties' obligations exceed or
are more burdensome than those of the Borrower; (e) the benefit of any statute
of limitations affecting liability of any endorser or other party liable
hereunder or the enforcement hereof; (f) any defense arising by reason of any
disability or other defense of the Borrower or by reason of the cessation from
any cause whatsoever (other than payment in full) of the obligation of the
Borrower for the Liabilities; and (g) any defense based on or arising out of any
defense that the Borrower may have to the payment or performance of the
Liabilities or any portion thereof. Any party liable on this Note consents to
any extension or postponement of time of its payment without limit as to the
number or period, to any substitution, exchange or release of all or any part of
the Collateral, to the addition of any other party, and to the release or
discharge of, or suspension of any rights and remedies against, any person who
may be liable for the payment of this Note. The Bank may waive or delay
enforcing any of its rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the
specific terms and time period stated in the waiver. No modification or waiver
of any provision of this Note is effective unless it is in writing and signed by
the party against whom it is being enforced. Without limiting any foregoing
waiver, consent or agreement, any party liable on this Note further waives any
and all benefits under Arizona Revised Statutes Sections 12-1641 through
12-1646, inclusive, and Rule 17(f) of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure,
including any revision or replacement of such statutes or rules hereafter
enacted.

SUBORDINATION. Any rights of any party liable on this Note, whether now existing
or hereafter arising, to receive payment on account of any indebtedness
(including interest) owed to any party liable on this Note by the Borrower, or
to withdraw capital invested by it in the Borrower, or to receive distributions
from the Borrower, shall at all times be subordinate to the full and prior
repayment to the Bank of the Liabilities. No party liable on this Note shall be
entitled to enforce or receive payment of any sums hereby subordinated until the
Liabilities have been paid in full and any such sums received in violation of
this paragraph shall be received by such party in trust for the Bank. Any party
liable on this Note agrees to stand still with regard to the Bank's enforcement
of its rights, including taking no action to delay, impede or otherwise
interfere with the Bank's rights to realize on the Collateral. The foregoing
notwithstanding, until the occurrence of any default, any party liable on this
Note is not prohibited from receiving distributions from the Borrower in an
amount equal to any income tax liability imposed on such party liable on this
Note attributable to an ownership interest in the Borrower, if any.

RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION. Any party liable on this Note waives and agrees not to
enforce any rights of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it may
have against the Borrower, any person liable on the Liabilities, or the
Collateral, until the Borrower and such party liable on this Note have fully
performed all their obligations to the Bank, even if those obligations are not
covered by this Note.

REINSTATEMENT. All parties liable on this Note agree that to the extent any
payment is received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, and all or
any part of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent
or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to
a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or
otherwise (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential
Payment"), then this Note shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated,
as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in possession of this Note,
and, to the extent of such payment or repayment by the Bank, the Liabilities or
part thereof intended to be satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment
had not been made.

GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This Note is delivered in the State of Arizona and
governed by Arizona law (without giving effect to its laws of conflicts). The
Borrower agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to any of its
obligations under this Note may be brought by the Bank in any state or federal
court located in the State of Arizona, as the Bank in its sole discretion may
elect. By the execution and delivery of this Note, the Borrower submits to and
accepts, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and
unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. The Borrower
waives any claim that the State of Arizona is not a convenient forum or the
proper venue for any such suit, action or proceeding.

for the obligations represented by this Note, the term "Borrower" means any one
or more of them, and the receipt of value by any one of them constitutes the

Related Documents to BANK ONE CORPORATION, or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates or their successors, or to any one or more purchasers or potential

PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT THE UNDERSIGNED MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM
THE BANK IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

OTHERWISE) BETWEEN THE BORROWER AND THE BANK ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY
RELATED TO THIS NOTE OR THE OTHER RELATED DOCUMENTS. THIS PROVISION IS A
MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE BANK TO PROVIDE THE FINANCING EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.

Debtor will, in the usual course of its business and at its own expense, on the
Banks behalf but not as the Banks agent, demand and receive and use its best
efforts to collect all moneys due or to become due with respect to the
Collateral. Until the Bank gives notice to the Debtor to the contrary or until
the Debtor is in default, it may use the funds collected in its business. Upon
notice from the Bank or upon default, the Debtor agrees that all sums of money
it receives on account of OR in payment or settlement of the Accounts, Chattel
Paper, General Intangibles and Instruments shall be held by it as trustee for
the Bank without commingling with any of the Debtor's other funds, and shall
immediately be delivered to the Bank with endorsement to the Banks order of any
check or similar instrument. It is agreed that, at any time the Bank so elects,
the Bank shall be entitled, in its own name or in the name of the Debtor or
otherwise, but at the expense and cost of the Debtor, to collect, demand,
receive, sue for or compromise any and all Accounts, Chattel Paper, General
Intangible*, and Instruments, and to give good and sufficient releases, to
endorse any checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money payable to
the Debtor and, in the Banks discretion, to file any claims or take any action
or proceeding which the Bank may deem necessary or advisable. It is expressly
understood and agreed, however, that the Bank shall not be required or obligated
in any manner to make any demand or to make any inquiry as to the nature or
sufficiency of any payment received by it or to present or tile any claim or
take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may
have been assigned to the Bank or to which the Bank may be entitled at any time
or TIMES. All notices required in this paragraph will be immediately effective
when sent. Such notices need not be given prior to the Banks taking action. The
Debtor appoints the Bank or the Bank's designee as the Debtor's attorney-in-fact
to do all things with reference to the Collateral as provided for in this
section including without limitation (1) to notify the post office authorities
to change the Debtor's mailing address to one designated by the Bank, (2) to
receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to the Debtor, (3) to sign the
Debtor's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Collateral, on
assignments and verifications of account and on notices to the Debtor's
customers, and (4) to do all things necessary to carry out this agreement. The
Debtor ratifies and approves all acts of the Bank as attorney-in-fact. The Bank
shall not be liable for any act or omission, nor any error of judgment or
mistake of fact or law, but only for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
This power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until all of the
Liabilities have been fully satisfied.

PLEDGE. If the Debtor is not liable for all or any part of the Liabilities, then
the Debtor agrees that:

1.    If any moneys become available from any source other than the Collateral
      that the Bank can apply to the Liabilities, the Bank may apply them in any
      manner it chooses, including but not limited to applying them against
      obligations, indebtedness or liabilities which are not secured by this
      agreement.

2.    The Bank may take any action against the Borrower, the Collateral or any
      other collateral for the Liabilities, or any other person liable for any
      of the Liabilities.

3.    The Bank may release the Borrower or anyone else from the Liabilities,
      either in whole or in part, or release the Collateral in whole or in part
      or any other collateral for the Liabilities, and need not perfect a
      security interest in the Collateral or any other collateral for the
      Liabilities.

4.    The Bank does not have to exercise any rights that it has against the
      Borrower or anyone else, or make any effort to realize on the Collateral
      or any other collateral for the Liabilities, or exercise right of setoff.

5.    Without notice or demand and without affecting the Debtor's obligations
      hereunder, from time to time, the Bank is authorized to: (a) renew,
      modify, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for
      payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the Liabilities or any part
      thereof, including increasing or decreasing the rate of interest thereon;
      (b) release, substitute or add any one or more sureties, endorsers, or
      guarantors; (c) take and hold other collateral for the payment of the
      Liabilities, and enforce, exchange, substitute, subordinate, waive or
      release any such collateral; (d) proceed against the Collateral or any
      other collateral for the Liabilities and direct the order or manner of
      sale as the Bank in its discretion may determine; and (e) apply any and
      all payments received by the Bank in connection with the Liabilities, or
      recoveries from the Collateral or any other collateral for the
      Liabilities, in such order or manner as the Bank in its discretion may
      determine.

6.    The Debtor's obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished or
      affected by (a) any act or omission of the Bank, (b) the voluntary or
      involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially
      ail of the assets of the Borrower, or any receivership, insolvency,
      bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceedings affecting the
      Borrower or any of its assets, (c) any change in the composition or
      structure of the Borrower, including a merger or consolidation with any
      other person or entity, or (d) any payments made upon the Liabilities.

7.    The Debtor expressly consents to any impairment of any other collateral
      for the Liabilities, including, but not limited to, failure to perfect a
      security interest and release of any other collateral for the Liabilities
      and any such impairment or release shall not affect the Debtor's
      obligations hereunder.

8.    The Debtor waives and agrees not to enforce any rights of subrogation,
      contribution or indemnification that it may have against the Borrower, any
      person liable on the Liabilities, or the Collateral, until the Borrower
      and the Debtor have fully performed all their obligations to the Bank,
      even if those obligations are not covered by this agreement.

9.    The Debtor waives (a) to the extent permitted by law, all rights and
      benefits under any laws or statutes regarding sureties, as may be amended,
      (b) any right the Debtor may have to receive notice of the following
      matters before the Bank enforces any of its rights: (i) the Bank's
      acceptance of this agreement, (ii) any credit that the Bank extends to the
      Borrower, (iii) the Borrower's default, (iv) any demand, diligence,
      presentment, dishonor and protest, or (v) any action that the Bank takes
      regarding the Borrower, anyone else, any other collateral for the
      Liabilities, or any of the Liabilities, which it might be entitled to by
      law or under any other agreement, (c) any right it may have to require the
      Bank to proceed against the Borrower, any other obligor or guarantor of
      the Liabilities, the Collateral or any other collateral for the
      Liabilities, or pursue any remedy in the Bank's power to pursue, (d) any
      defense based on any claim that the Debtor's obligations exceed or are
      more burdensome than those of the Borrower, (e) the benefit of any statute
      of limitations affecting the Debtor's obligations hereunder or the
      enforcement hereof, (f) any defense arising by reason of any disability or
      other defense of the Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause
      whatsoever (other than payment in full) of the obligation of the Borrower
      for the Liabilities, and (g) any defense based on or arising out of any
      defense that the Borrower may have to the payment or performance of the
      Liabilities or any portion thereof. The Bank may waive or delay enforcing
      any of its rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the
      specific terms and time period stated in the waiver.

10.   The Debtor agrees that to the extent any payment is received by the Bank
      in connection with the Liabilities, and all or any part of such payment is
      subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
      aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to a trustee,
      receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or
      otherwise (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential
      Payment"), then this agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be
      reinstated, as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in
      possession of this agreement, and, to the extent of such payment or
      repayment by the Bank, the Liabilities or part thereof intended to be
      satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be revived and continued in
      full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment had not been made.
      If this agreement must be reinstated, the Debtor agrees to execute and
      deliver to the Bank any new security agreements and financing statements,
      if necessary or if requested by the Bank, in form and substance acceptable
      to the Bank, covering the Collateral.

11.   Any rights of the Debtor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to
      receive payment on account of any indebtedness (including interest) owed
      to the Debtor by the Borrower, or to withdraw capital invested by the
      Debtor in the Borrower, or to receive distributions from the Borrower,
      shall at all times be subordinate to the full and prior repayment to the
      Bank of the Liabilities. The Debtor shall not be entitled to enforce or
      receive payment of any sums hereby subordinated until the Liabilities have
      been paid in full and any such sums received in violation of this
      agreement shall be received by the Debtor in trust for the Bank. The
      Debtor agrees to fully cooperate with the Bank and not to delay, impede or
      otherwise interfere with the efforts of the Bank to secure payment from
      the assets which secure the Liabilities including actions, proceedings,
      motions, orders, agreements or other matters relating to relief from
      automatic stay, abandonment of property, use of cash collateral and sale
      of the Banks collateral free and clear of all liens. The foregoing
      notwithstanding, until the occurrence of any default, the Debtor is not
      prohibited from receiving distributions from the Borrower in an amount
      equal to any income tax liability imposed on the Debtor attributable to
      the Debtor's ownership interest in the Borrower, if any.

DEFAULT; REMEDIES. If any of the Liabilities are not paid at maturity, whether
by acceleration or otherwise, or if a default by anyone occurs under the terms
of any agreement related to any of the Liabilities, then the Bank shall have the
rights and remedies provided by law or this agreement, including but not limited
to the right to require the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it
available to the Bank at a place to be designated by the Bank which is
reasonably convenient to both parties, the right to take possession of the
Collateral with or without demand and with or without process of law, and the
right to sell and dispose of it and distribute the proceeds according to law.
Should a


                                        4
<PAGE>
default occur, the Debtor will pay to the Bank all costs reasonably incurred by
the Bank for the purpose of enforcing its rights hereunder, to the extent not
prohibited by law, including, without limitation: costs of foreclosure; costs of
obtaining money damages; and a reasonable fee for the services of internal and
outside attorneys employed or engaged by the Bank for any purpose related to
this agreement, including, without limitation, consultation, drafting documents,
sending notices or instituting, prosecuting or defending litigation or any
proceeding. The Debtor agrees that upon default the Bank may dispose of any of
the Collateral in its then present condition, that the Bank has no duty to
repair or clean the Collateral prior to sale, and that the disposal of the
Collateral in its present condition or without repair or clean-up shall not
affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or disposition. The Bank's
compliance with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection
with the disposition of the Collateral will not adversely affect the commercial
reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. The Bank may disclaim warranties
of title, possession, quiet enjoyment, and the like, and the Debtor agrees that
any such action shall not affect the commercial reasonableness of the sale. In
connection with the right of the Bank to take possession of the Collateral, the
Bank may take possession of any other items of property in or on the Collateral
at the time of taking possession, and hold them for the Debtor without liability
on the part of the Bank. The Debtor expressly agrees that the Bank may enter
upon the premises where the Collateral is believed to be located without any
obligation of payment to the Debtor, and that the Bank may, without cost, use
any and all of the Debtor's "equipment" (as defined in the UCC) in the
manufacturing or processing of any "inventory" (as defined in the UCC) or in
growing, raising, cultivating, caring for, harvesting, loading and transporting
of any of the Collateral that constitutes "farm products" (as defined in the
UCC). If there is any statutory requirement for notice, that requirement shall
be met if the Bank sends notice to the Debtor at least ten (10) days prior to
the date of sale, disposition or other event giving rise to the required notice,
and such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable. The Debtor is liable
for any deficiency remaining after disposition of the Collateral.

MISCELLANEOUS.

1.    Where the Collateral is located at, used in or attached to a facility
      leased by the Debtor, the Debtor will obtain from the lessor a consent to
      the granting of this security interest and a release or subordination of
      the lessor's interest in any of the Collateral, in form acceptable to the
      Bank.

2.    At its option the Bank may, but shall be under no duty or obligation to,
      discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any
      time levied or placed on the Collateral, pay for insurance on the
      Collateral, and pay for the maintenance and preservation of the
      Collateral, and the Debtor agrees to reimburse the Bank on demand for any
      payment made or expense incurred by the Bank, with interest at the highest
      rate at which interest may accrue under any of the instruments evidencing
      the Liabilities.

3.    No delay on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right or remedy
      waives that right or remedy, no single or partial exercise by the Bank of
      any right or remedy precludes any other exercise of it or the exercise of
      any other right or remedy, and no waiver or indulgence by the Bank of any
      default is effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Bank, nor
      does a waiver on one occasion waive that right on any future occasion.

4.    If any provision of this agreement is invalid, it shall be ineffective
      only to the extent of its invalidity, and the remaining provisions shall
      be valid and effective.

5.    Except as provided in the Accounts; Chattel Paper; General Intangibles;
      and Instruments paragraph above, any notices and demands under or related
      to this document shall be in writing and delivered to the intended party
      at its address stated herein, and if to the Bank, at its main office if no
      other address of the Bank is specified herein, by one of the following
      means: (a) by hand, (b) by a nationally recognized overnight courier
      service, or (c) by certified mail, postage prepaid, with return receipt
      requested. Notice shall be deemed given: (a) upon receipt if delivered by
      hand, (b) on the Delivery Day after the day of deposit with a nationally
      recognized courier service, or (c) on the third Delivery Day after the
      notice is deposited in the mail. "Delivery Day" means a day other than a
      Saturday, a Sunday, or any other day on which national banking
      associations are authorized to be closed. Any party may change its address
      for purposes of the receipt of notices and demands by giving notice of
      such change in the manner provided in this provision.

6.    All rights of the Bank benefit the Banks successors and assigns; and all
      obligations of the Debtor bind the Debtor's heirs, executors,
      administrators, successors and assigns. If there is more than one Debtor,
      their obligations are joint and several.

7.    A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this agreement is
      sufficient as, and can be filed as, a financing statement. The Bank is
      irrevocably appointed the Debtor's attorney-in-fact to execute any
      financing statement on the Debtor's behalf covering the Collateral.
      Additionally, if permitted by applicable law, the Debtor authorizes the
      Bank to file one or more financing statements related to the security
      interests created by this agreement, and further authorizes the Bank, as
      secured party herein, instead of the Debtor, to sign such financing
      statements.

INDEMNIFICATION. The Debtor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Bank and
BANK ONE CORPORATION, and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or their
successors, and each of their respective shareholders, directors, officers,
employees and agents (collectively the "Indemnified Persons") harmless from any
and all obligations, claims, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any
kind or nature (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Person's
attorneys' fees) (collectively the "Claims") which may be imposed upon, incurred
by or assessed against any Indemnified Person (whether or not caused by any
Indemnified Person's sole, concurrent, or contributory negligence) arising out
of or relating to this agreement; the Debtor's use of the property covered by
this agreement; the exercise of the rights and remedies granted under this
agreement (including, without limitation, the enforcement of this agreement and
the defense of any Indemnified Person's action or inaction in connection with
this agreement); and in connection with the Debtor's failure to perform all of
the Debtor's obligations under this agreement, except to the limited extent that
the Claims against any such Indemnified Person are proximately


                                        5
<PAGE>
caused by such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
indemnification provided for in this section shall survive the termination of
this agreement and shall extend to and continue to benefit each individual or
entity who is or has at any time been an Indemnified Person.

The Debtor's indemnity obligations under this section shall not in any way be
affected by the presence or absence of covering insurance, or by the amount of
such insurance or by the failure or refusal of any insurance carrier to perform
any obligation on its part under any insurance policy or policies affecting the
Debtor's assets or the Debtor's business activities. Should any Claim be made or
brought against any Indemnified Person by reason of any event as to which the
Debtor's indemnification obligations apply, then, upon any Indemnified Person's
demand, the Debtor, at its sole cost and expense, shall defend such Claim in the
Debtor's name, if necessary, by the attorneys for the Debtor's insurance carrier
(if such Claim is covered by insurance), or otherwise by such attorneys as any
Indemnified Person shall approve. Any Indemnified Person may also engage its own
attorneys at its reasonable discretion to defend the Debtor and to assist in its
defense and the Debtor agrees to pay the fees and disbursements of such
attorneys.

GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This agreement is delivered in the State of Arizona and
governed by Arizona law (without giving effect to its laws of conflicts), except
to the extent that the laws regarding the perfection and priority of property of
the state in which any property securing the Liabilities is located are
applicable. The Debtor AGREES that any legal action or proceeding with respect
to any of its obligations under this agreement may be brought by the Bank in any
state or federal court located in the State of Arizona, as the Bank in its sole
discretion may elect. By the execution and delivery of this agreement, the
Debtor submits to and accepts, for itself and in respect of its property,
generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.
The Debtor waives any claim that the State of Arizona is not a convenient forum
or the proper venue for any such suit, action or proceeding.

REPRESENTATIONS. Each Debtor represents that: (a) the execution and delivery of
this agreement and the performance of the obligations it imposes do not violate
any law, do not conflict with any agreement by which it is bound, and do not

      determine.

6.    The Assignor's obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished or
      affected by (a) any act or omission of the Bank, (b) the voluntary or
      involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially
      all of the assets of the Borrower, or any receivership, insolvency,
      bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceedings affecting the
      Borrower or any of its assets, (c) any change in the composition or
      structure of the Borrower, including a merger or consolidation with any
      other person or entity, or (d) any payments made upon the Liabilities.

7.    The Assignor expressly consents to any impairment of any other collateral
      for the Liabilities, including, but not limited to, failure to perfect a
      security interest and release of any other collateral for the Liabilities
      and any such impairment or release shall not affect the Assignor's
      obligations hereunder.

8.    The Assignor waives and agrees not to enforce any rights of subrogation,
      contribution or indemnification that it may have against the Borrower, any
      person liable on the Liabilities, or the Account, until the-Borrower and
      the Assignor have fully performed all their obligations to the Bank, even
      if those obligations are not covered by this Assignment.

9.    The Assignor waives (a) to the extent permitted by law, all rights and
      benefits under any laws or statutes regarding sureties, as may be amended,
      (b) any right the Assignor may have to receive notice of the following
      matters before the Bank enforces any of its rights: (i) the Bank's
      acceptance of this Assignment, (ii) any credit that the Bank extends to
      the Borrower, (iii) the Borrower's default, (iv) any demand, diligence,
      presentment, dishonor and protest, or (v) any action that the Bank takes
      regarding the Borrower, anyone else, any other collateral for the
      Liabilities, or any of the Liabilities, which it might be entitled to by
      law or under any other agreement, (c) any right it may have to require the
      Bank to proceed against the Borrower, any other obligor or guarantor of
      the Liabilities, the Account or any other collateral for the Liabilities,
      or pursue any remedy in the Banks power to pursue, (d) any defense based
      on any claim that the Assignor's obligations exceed or are more burdensome
      than those of the Borrower, (e) the benefit of any statute of limitations
      affecting the Assignor's obligations hereunder or the enforcement hereof,
      (f) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of
      the Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever
      (other than payment in full) of the obligation of the Borrower for the
      Liabilities, and (g) any defense based on or arising out of any defense
      that the Borrower may have to the payment or performance of the
      Liabilities or any portion thereof. The Bank may waive or delay enforcing
      any of its rights without losing them. Any waiver affects only the
      specific terms and time period stated in the waiver.

10.   The Assignor agrees that to the extent any payment is received by the Bank
      in connection with the Liabilities, and all or any part of such payment is
      subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
      aside or required to be repaid by the Bank or paid over to a trustee,
      receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or
      otherwise (any such payment is hereinafter referred to as a "Preferential
      Payment"), then this Assignment shall continue to be effective or shall be
      reinstated, as the case may be, and whether or not the Bank is in
      possession of this Assignment, and, to the extent of such payment or
      repayment by the Bank, the Liabilities or part thereof intended to be
      satisfied by such Preferential Payment shall be revived and continued in
      full force and effect as if said Preferential Payment had not been made.
      If this Assignment must be reinstated, the Assignor agrees to execute and
      deliver to the Bank any new assignments and agreements, if necessary or if
      requested by the Bank, in form and substance acceptable to the Bank,
      covering the Account.

11.   Any rights of the Assignor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to
      receive payment on account of any indebtedness (including interest) owed
      to the Assignor by the Borrower, or to withdraw capital invested by the
      Assignor in the Borrower, or to receive distributions from the Borrower,
      shall at all times be subordinate to the full and prior repayment to the
      Bank of the Liabilities. The Assignor shall not be entitled to enforce or
      receive payment of any sums hereby subordinated until the Liabilities have
      been paid in full and any such sums received in violation of this
      Assignment shall be received by the Assignor in trust for the Bank. The
      Assignor agrees to fully cooperate with the Bank and not to delay, impede
      or otherwise interfere with the efforts of the Bank to secure payment from
      the assets which secure the Liabilities including actions, proceedings,
      motions, orders, agreements or other matters relating to relief from
      automatic stay, abandonment of property, use of cash collateral and sale
      of the Banks collateral free and clear of all liens. The foregoing
      notwithstanding, until the occurrence of any default, the Assignor is not
      prohibited from receiving distributions from the Borrower in an amount
      equal to any income tax liability imposed on the Assignor attributable to
      the Assignor's ownership interest in the Borrower, if any.

12.   Without limiting any foregoing waiver, consent or agreement, the Assignor
      further waives any and all benefits under Arizona Revised Statutes Section
      12-1641 through 12-1646, inclusive, and Rule 17(f) of the Arizona Rules of
      Civil Procedure, including any revision or replacement of such statutes or
      rules hereafter enacted.

MISCELLANEOUS. The Assignor consents to any extension, postponement or renewal
of any Liabilities, the release or discharge of all or any part of the security
for the Liabilities, and the release or discharge or suspension of any rights
and remedies against any person who may be liable for any of the Liabilities.
The Bank does not have to look to any other right, any other collateral, or any
other person for payment before it exercises its rights under this Assignment.
The Assignor's obligations to the Bank under this Assignment are not subject to
any condition, precedent or subsequent. If this Assignment is signed by more
than one person, all shall be jointly and severally bound. This Assignment is
binding on the Assignor and its heirs, successors and assigns, and is for the
benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns. The use of section headings
shall not limit the provisions of this Assignment. A carbon, photographic or
other reproduction of this Assignment is sufficient as, and can be filed as, a
financing statement. The Bank is irrevocably appointed the Assignor's
attorney-in-fact to execute any financing statement on the Assignor's behalf
covering the Account. Additionally, if permitted by applicable law, the Assignor
<PAGE>
authorizes the Bank to file one or more financing statements related to the
security interests created by this Assignment and further authorizes the Bank,
instead of the Assignor, to sign such financing statements.

GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This Assignment is delivered in the State of Arizona
and governed by Arizona law (without giving effect to its laws of conflicts),
except to the extent that the laws regarding the perfection and priority of
property of the state in which any property securing the Liabilities is located
are applicable. The Assignor agrees that any legal action or proceeding with
respect to any of its obligations under this Assignment may be brought by the
Bank in any state or federal court located in the State of Arizona, as the Bank
in its sole discretion may elect. By the execution and delivery of this
Assignment, the Assignor submits to and accepts, for itself and in respect of
its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of
those courts. The Assignor waives any claim that the State of Arizona is not a
convenient forum or the proper venue for any such suit, action or proceeding.

WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES. THE ASSIGNOR WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT
PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT THE UNDERSIGNED MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM
THE BANK IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

JURY WAIVER. THE ASSIGNOR AND THE BANK (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) HEREBY
VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE
A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE) BETWEEN THE ASSIGNOR AND THE BANK ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY
RELATED TO THIS DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE BANK TO
PROVIDE THE FINANCING DESCRIBED HEREIN.

      the Corporation to all present and future indebtedness, obligations,
      liabilities, claims, rights and demands of any kind which may be owed, now
      or hereafter, from such person or entity to the Bank ("Subordinated
      Indebtedness"), together with subordination by the Corporation of any and
      all security interests, liens and mortgages, of any kind, whether now
      existing or hereafter acquired, securing payment of the Subordinated

      Corporation's officers and the Bank and in such amounts as in his or her
      judgment should be subordinated.

4.    Mortgage, pledge, transfer, endorse, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber
      and deliver to the Bank any property now or hereafter belonging to the

      property, tangible or intangible, of the Corporation, as security for the
      payment of any credits, loans, or other financial accommodations so
      obtained by the Corporation or by any other person or entity, or any

      hypothecated, or encumbered at the time such loans are obtained or such

      advisable.

9.    Sign and deliver to the Bank, promissory notes or notes, drafts,

                     LANDLORD'S LIEN SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT


            THIS AGREEMENT is made this 25th day of June, 2002 by and between
NORTON P. REMES and JOAN A. REMES, CO-TRUSTEES OF THE NORTON P. REMES and JOAN
A. REMES REVOCABLE TRUST DATED NOVEMBER 1, 1994 (the "Landlord"), TASER
INTERNATIONAL INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Tenant"), and BANK ONE, N.A.,
(the "Bank").

                              W I T N E S S E T H

            A.    Bank has entered into certain loan agreements with Tenant
represented by certain documents and instruments ("Loan Documents") creating and
providing a security interest in favor of the Bank in all of the collateral (the
"Collateral") described upon the Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference.

            B.    Tenant, in order to induce Bank to make such loans, has
requested that Landlord agree to subordinate its landlord lien rights in and to
the Collateral only, to the lien of the Loan Documents upon the terms and
conditions herein contained.

            NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, such parties
do hereby agree as follows:

            1.    Landlord hereby acknowledges the execution and delivery by
Tenant to Bank of the Loan Documents creating a security interest in the
Collateral as security for the payment of the obligations of Tenant under and as
security for the performance and discharge of the obligations of the Tenant to
the Bank contained in the Loan Documents.

            2.    Landlord agrees that, subject to compliance with all the terms
of this Agreement, for so long as and to the extent that Tenant is indebted to
Bank pursuant to the Loan Documents, or any extension, modification, or
amendment thereof, Landlord hereby subordinates and makes inferior any claim or
right of landlord's lien Landlord has in or to the Collateral by virtue of or
pursuant to (1) that certain Lease dated, November 17, 2000 (the "Lease") by and
between Tenant, as Tenant, and Landlord, as Landlord; or (2) A.R.S. Section
33-341 and 33-342 relating to or granting landlord's liens in the Collateral to
Landlord, such that Bank's security interest in the Collateral only, shall be
and is superior to any such interest or claim of Landlord. Landlord is
subordinating its rights to the Collateral only.

            3.    The parties agree that in the event of a default by Tenant in
the performance of any of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, Bank
may, upon reasonable prior written notice to Landlord, enter upon such Premises
commonly known as 7860 East McClain Drive #2, Scottsdale, Arizona, 85260 (the
"Premises") for the sole purpose of removing the Collateral and remove such
Collateral therefrom, subject to the following terms and conditions: (1) Bank
shall remove the Collateral within a reasonable time after entry; (2) Bank shall
not remove or destroy any personal property of Tenant that is not Collateral;
(3) at Landlord's discretion, Landlord may accompany Bank into the Premises; (4)
upon removal of such Collateral from the Premises, at the election of Landlord,
Bank shall promptly (a) repair any damage to the Premises resulting from or
relating to the removal of such Collateral, or (b) reimburse Landlord for the
reasonable cost of repair of any such damage; and (5) Bank agrees to indemnify,
defend and save Landlord and its agents, servants and employees from any and all
loss, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and other
litigation related costs and expenses) injury and liability arising out of or in
connection with any entry into and upon the Premises or Property by or for Bank,
including but not limited to, any claims, damages, losses, or liabilities
asserted by Tenant, or any other secured creditors or purported secured
creditors in Tenants personal property located in the Premises.

            4.    In the event that during the term of this Agreement Tenant
defaults under the terms of the Lease and Landlord thereafter re-enters the
Premises, terminates, and/or cancels the Lease, or upon other expiration of the
term of the Lease pursuant to its terms or applicable law while any debt remains
unpaid from Tenant to Bank, Tenant and Bank agree that, at the option of
Landlord, Tenant and/or Bank, or either of them, shall remove the Collateral
from the Premises within thirty (30) days from the date of Landlord's written
notice so to do, such removal to be subject to the terms of this Agreement;
provided however, if Bank removes the collateral, then Bank shall pay rent for
the period the Collateral remained in the Premises after Landlord's reentry, for
a period not to exceed thirty (30) days. Failure to remove the Collateral from
the Premises within such time period shall cause this Agreement to terminate and
be of no further force or effect.

            5.    Landlord, Bank and Tenant agree that the Collateral is and
shall continue to be considered at all times personal property and not fixtures
notwithstanding the fact that some parts or portions of the Collateral may be
resting upon or attached by nails, bolts, screws, etc. to the Premises.

            6.    Landlord agrees, upon reasonable prior written notice from
Bank, to permit Bank to enter into the Premises from time to time during regular
business hours for the purpose of inspecting the Collateral.

            7.    Landlord hereby agrees that Landlord will give to Bank at Bank
One, NA, 201 N. Central Ave., 21st Floor, AZl-1178, Phoenix, Arizona, 85004,
Attn: Steven J. Krakoski, a copy of any notices of default given by Landlord
to Tenant. Upon the occurrence of a default under the Lease, Bank shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to cure such default but only if the default is
cured in full within the time specified in the notice of default.

            8.    Landlord, Bank and Tenant agree that this Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the
parties hereto.

            9.    The terms of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona.

            10.   In the event of litigation involving this Agreement, the
unsuccessful party shall pay to the prevailing party all costs of suit,
including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees.

            11.   This Agreement may be executed by the signing in counterparts.
