           This Agreement is made as of the 31st day of March, 1998 by and among
PNC Bank, National Association ("Lender"), Inmark Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Parent"), Inmark Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Services"), and Optimum Group, Inc., an Ohio corporation (formerly, OG
Acquisition Corp.) ("New OGI" and together with Services, the "Borrower").
Parent, Services, and New OGI are collectively referred to herein as the "Inmark
Group." Any capitalized term used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meaning ascribed to such term in Exhibit A to this Agreement.


                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

           To provide a source of funds for the purposes described in section
1.10, the Inmark Group has requested that Lender enter into this Agreement,
agree to make the Revolving Line of Credit available to Borrower and to make the
Term Loan to Borrower. Lender has agreed to make the Revolving Line of Credit
available to Borrower and to make the Term Loan to Borrower subject to and upon
the terms and conditions set forth herein.

                                   AGREEMENT:


1.         The Loans.

           1.1        Revolving Loans

                      (a) Amount of Revolving Loans. So long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, Lender agrees to make available to Borrower a line of credit pursuant to
which Lender will make loans to Borrower on a revolving loan basis (the
"Revolving Loans") from time to time on any Banking Day during the period from
the Closing Date until the Final Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount
at any one time outstanding not to exceed $5,000,000 (the "Revolving Line of
Credit"). Each borrowing under the Revolving Line of Credit shall be in a
minimum amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof.
During the term of this Agreement, Borrower may use the Revolving Line of Credit
by requesting Lender to make Revolving Loans, repaying Revolving Loans and
reborrowing, all in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
hereof. Borrower shall repay to Lender on the Final Maturity Date the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans then outstanding.

                      (b) Revolving Note. The Revolving Loans shall be evidenced
by a promissory note (as amended, supplemented, restated and otherwise modified
from time to time, the "Revolving Note") in the form of Exhibit B. Lender is
hereby authorized to record the amount of each Revolving Loan made to Borrower
and the date and amount of each payment of principal thereof on the schedule
annexed to and constituting a part of the Revolving Note, and any such
recordation shall constitute conclusive evidence of the accuracy of the
information so recorded in the absence of manifest error; provided that the
failure of Lender to make any such recordation shall not affect any obligation
of Borrower hereunder, under the Revolving Note or under any other Loan
Document.

to the proposed borrowing date, in the case of a Base Rate Loan, and no later
than three Banking Days prior to the proposed borrowing date, in the case of a
Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided that a Revolving Loan requested to be made (or

aggregate amount of such borrowing, (b) the requested borrowing date (which must
be a Banking Day), (c) the type of Loan (i.e., Base Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate

Period; provided, that if no type of Loan is selected, the requested Revolving
Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable
and binding on Borrower. In respect of each Notice of Borrowing, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, not later than 3:00 p.m. (eastern
standard time) on the borrowing date specified in such Notice of Borrowing,

Borrowing available to Borrower by depositing such amount in immediately
available funds in the account of Borrower with Lender.

           1.3        Interest Rate Provisions.

                      (a) Interest Rate and Payment. Borrower shall pay to
Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date of
such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following
rates per annum and at the following time:

                                (i) each Loan that is a Base Rate Loan shall
bear interest at a rate per
annum equal at all time to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to
time plus (B) the Applicable Margin, payable (I) quarterly in arrears on the
last Banking Day of each March, June, September and December during such period
commencing June 30, 1998, (II) on the date of any prepayment thereof and (III)
on the Final Maturity Date;

                                (ii) each Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan shall
bear interest at a rate per
annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for each such Loan to the
sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Loan plus (B)
the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest
Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on
each three-month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period until the
date such Eurodollar Loan shall be Converted or paid in full.

                                (iii) Whenever, subsequent to the date of this
Agreement, the Base Rate
is increased or decreased, the applicable Base Rate for Base Rate Loans shall be
similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the
amount of such change in the Base Rate during the time such change or changes
remain in effect. The Eurodollar Rate shall be adjusted with respect to
Eurodollar Rate Loans without notice or demand of any kind on the effective date
of any change in the Reserve Percentage as of such effective date.

                      (b) Default Rate. Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the interest rate applicable to Loans shall
be increased to the Default Rate and such interest shall be payable on demand.

           1.4        Conversions of Loans.

                      (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon
receipt by Lender from Borrower of a notice not later than 11:00 a.m. (eastern
standard time) on the third Banking Day prior to the date of the proposed
Conversion, Borrower may Convert all or any portion of the Loans from Base Rate
Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and vice versa; provided (A) all Conversions of
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto and (B) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be a minimum of
$250,000 or a whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice of
Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (I) the date
of such Conversion, (II) the Loans to be Converted and (III) if such Conversion
is into a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the duration of the Interest Period for such
Loan. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.

                      (b) If Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any
Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in accordance with the provisions
contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Exhibit A, such Eurodollar
Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest
Period, Convert into a Base Rate Loan.

<PAGE>



                      (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, anything in this Agreement to contrary notwithstanding, each
Loan that is a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall automatically convert into a Base Rate
Loan at the end of the then applicable Interest Period for the same.

           1.5        Optional Prepayments.

                      (a) At any time and from time to time, Borrower may prepay
the outstanding aggregate principal amount of any Loan, in whole or in part, on
the following terms and conditions:

                                 (i) Lender shall have received no later than
11:00 a.m. (eastern standard time) from Borrower at least three Banking Days
notice of prepayment, specifying the date and amount of such prepayment and
whether such prepayment shall be in respect of Revolving Loans or the Term Loan
and if a combination thereof, the amount of payment allocable to each; provided,
that if Borrower fails to specify whether such prepayment shall be in respect of
Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, such prepayment automatically shall be deemed
to be in respect of first, Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, second,
Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans, and third to the Term Loan.

                                 (ii) each partial prepayment shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $25,000 in excess
thereof; and

                                 (iii) if any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate
Loan is made on a date other than the last day of any Interest Period for such
Loan, Borrower shall pay to Lender any other amounts owing pursuant to this
Agreement, including section 1.9(e).

                      (b) Each notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable and
binding on Borrower. If a notice of prepayment is given by Borrower pursuant to
section 1.5(a), Borrower shall make such prepayment amount specified in such
notice on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such
date on the amount prepaid and any prepayment premium and other additional
amounts required to be so paid pursuant to this Agreement, including those
specified in section 1.5(a)(iii). Optional prepayments of any Term Loan shall be
applied to installments of principal in the inverse order of their scheduled
maturity.

           1.6        Mandatory Prepayments.

                      (a) Within 90 calendar days after the end of each Fiscal
Year, Borrower shall prepay to Lender the outstanding principal amount of the
Term Loan in an amount equal to 50 percent of the amount of Excess Cash Flow for
such Fiscal Year; provided, that Borrower shall have no obligation to make such
mandatory prepayment (A) in respect of the Fiscal Year ended March 31, 1998, (B)
in respect of any Fiscal Year in excess of $1,000,000, (C) if the outstanding
principal amount of the Term Loan is less than $2,500,000 or (D) to reduce the
outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan to less than $2,500,000. If
Borrower fails to deliver to Lender the financial statements referenced in
section 4.5(a) within 90 calendar days after the end of any Fiscal Year (other
than the Fiscal Year ended March 31, 1998), then Lender may deliver to Borrower
a good faith estimated computation of the Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year,
and based upon such estimated computation, Borrower shall prepay to Lender the
outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in the manner described in the
first sentence of this section 1.6(a); provided, that such prepayment shall be
subject to adjustment when the audited financial statements for the related
Fiscal Year are delivered to Lender as required hereby. The computation made by
Lender shall not be deemed a

                                        4

<PAGE>



waiver of any rights Lender may have as a result of the failure by any member of
the Inmark Group to deliver such financial statements.

                      (b) When any member of the Inmark Group sells, leases, or
otherwise transfers or disposes of any Collateral (other than sales and
dispositions permitted pursuant to section 5.2), Borrowers shall repay the Loans
in an amount equal to the net proceeds of such sale (i.e., gross proceeds less
the reasonable costs of such sales or other dispositions); such repayment to be
made promptly but in no event more than one Banking Day following receipt of
such net proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in
trust for Lender. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any
such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of any Loan Document.
All mandatory prepayments pursuant to this section 1.6(b) shall be applied first
to the installments of the Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans, second to Term
Loans that are Eurodollar Loans, and third to the permanent reduction of the
Revolving Line of Credit.

                      (c) If the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans
on any date exceeds the Revolving Line of Credit on such date, (i) such excess
shall nevertheless constitute Obligations, be secured by the Collateral and be
subject to the terms of this Agreement and (to the extent applicable) the other
Loan Documents, and (ii) Borrower shall make a prepayment of Revolving Loans in
an amount equal to such excess.

                      (d) Each mandatory prepayment of a Loan shall be
accompanied by payment in full of all accrued interest thereon to and including
the date of such prepayment. Mandatory prepayments of any Loan shall be applied
to installments of principal in the inverse order of their scheduled maturity.

           1.7 Termination of Revolving Line of Credit. Upon at least 30
calendar days' prior notice to Lender, subject to the other terms and conditions
of this section 1.7, Borrower may terminate in whole or reduce in part the
Revolving Line of Credit. Such termination or reduction notice shall specify (x)
the date of such termination or reduction, as the case may be, and (y) in the
case of a reduction, the amount of such reduction. Such termination or reduction
notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower. Any and all amounts payable
to Lender under this section 1.7 shall become due and payable on the stated
termination date without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower.

                      (a) If Borrower elects to reduce partially the Revolving
Line of Credit (A) each such partial reduction of the Revolving Line of Credit
shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in
excess thereof and in each case shall reduce permanently the amount of the
Revolving Line of Credit then in effect and (B) Borrower shall prepay to Lender
the Revolving Loans (together in each case with accrued interest on the amount
so prepaid to and including the date of such prepayment and any additional
amounts (other than unpaid but not yet due balances under the Term Loan) owing
pursuant to this Agreement) to the extent, if any, that the amount of the
aggregate amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding exceeds the amount of the
Revolving Line of Credit as then reduced.

                      (b) If Borrower elects to terminate the Revolving Line of
Credit, Borrower shall pay to Lender in full all Revolving Loans then
outstanding (together in each case with accrued interest on the amount so
prepaid to and including the date of such prepayment and any additional amounts
owing pursuant to this Agreement) (other than unpaid but not yet due balances
under the Term Loan).

           1.8        Payments and Computations.

                      (a) Time and Method of Payment. (i) Borrower shall make to
Lender each payment (including, prepayments) hereunder and under the Notes,
without any deduction and irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off,
on the day when due at Lender's office specified in section 11.2, in each case
prior to 11:00 a.m. (eastern standard time), in lawful money of the United
States and in immediately available funds.

                                 (ii) Lender, without demand, may charge and
withdraw from any checking, loan or other account that Borrower may then have
with Lender or with any affiliate of Lender, any amount that shall become due
from Borrower to Lender under any Loan Document; provided that without limiting
the generality of sections 7 and 8, for so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Lender shall charge and withdraw any such amount due
hereunder only from the account designated by Borrower, unless such account does
not contain adequate funds.

                                 (iii) All computations of interest and fees
hereunder shall be made by Lender on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the
actual number of days elapsed. If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due
and payable on a day other than a Banking Day, except as may otherwise be
expressly provided herein, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Banking Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included
in the computation of payment of interest; provided, that if such extension
would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Loans to be made
in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next
preceding Banking Day.

                      (b) Maximum Interest Rate. If the interest rate calculated
in accordance with any provision of this Agreement for any Loan (including,
without limitation, any application of the Default Rate) would at any time
exceed the maximum permitted by any law, then for such period as such rate would
exceed the maximum permitted by such law (and no longer), the rate of interest
payable on such Loan shall be reduced to the maximum permitted by such law, and
any excess amounts received by Lender shall be treated as a partial payment or
prepayment of principal, without premium or penalty (except under section 1.5
with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans).

           1.9        Fees; Charges; etc.

                      (a) Closing Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender,
simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, a closing fee
equal to $100,000.

                      (b) Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender a
commitment fee, from the date hereof until the Final Maturity Date, payable
quarterly in arrears on the last Banking Day of each March, June, September and
December, commencing on June 30, 1998, and on the Final Maturity Date, at the
rate of one-quarter of one percent per annum on the aggregate Unused Revolving
Credit Commitment. In addition, if Borrower elects to reduce partially the
Revolving Line of Credit pursuant to section 1.7(a), on the effective date of
such partial reduction, Borrower shall pay to Lender a commitment fee at the
rate of one-quarter of one percent per annum on the aggregate portion of the
Revolving Line of Credit so reduced pro-rated to the date of the effective date
of such reduction.

                      (c) Late Charge. In the event that any payment due and
payable hereunder is not received in full by Lender within ten calendar days of
the date such payment was due and payable (except as a result of the failure by
Lender to withdraw such payment from the account designated by

                                        6

<PAGE>



Borrower pursuant to section 1.8(a)(ii)), Borrower hereby agrees to pay to
Lender, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law and without demand and in
addition to any other amounts payable hereunder, a late charge equal to five
percent of the amount of such delinquent payment for the purpose of defraying
the expense incident to the handling of such delinquent payment.

                      (d) Reimbursement of Increased Cost to Lender. If any law,
regulation or guideline, including, without limitation, any change in any law,
regulation or guideline and/or in the interpretation or application thereof, or
any order or ruling by any Governmental Authority, or compliance by Lender with
any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any
Governmental Authority, shall impose, modify, or deem applicable to Lender any
reserve, capital, special deposit or other requirement or condition (including,
under Regulation D issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System) in respect of any Loan Document or any of the Loans which results in an
increased cost or reduced benefit to Lender in maintaining, making, issuing or
renewing any Loan (as determined by reasonable allocation of the aggregate of
such increased costs or reduced benefits to Lender resulting from such event),
then Borrower shall pay to Lender from time to time upon demand additional
amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such increased costs or reduced
benefits, together with interest on each such amount from a date ten calendar
days after the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate
then applicable to such Loan. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail
such increased cost incurred or reduced benefit realized by Lender as a result
of any such event shall be conclusive as to the amount thereof, absent manifest
error.

                      (e) Yield Protection. Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender
against any loss which Lender may sustain or incur in liquidating or employing
deposits from third parties acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Eurodollar
Rate Loan as a consequence of either (a) Borrower's failure to make a payment on
the due date thereof, or (b) Borrower's payment, prepayment or Conversion of any
Eurodollar Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of the applicable
Interest Period. Borrower's obligations under this section 1.9(e) shall survive
the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of any Loan Document.

           1.10 Use of Proceeds. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the proceeds of the Loans shall be used by Borrower only to partially
finance the purchase by New OGI of the OGI Assets, recapitalize Borrower,
provide working capital to Borrower, pay transaction fees and expenses related
the Loan Documents and the acquisition of the OGI Assets, and acquire all or
substantially all the assets of yet unidentified companies and pay transaction
costs associated with such acquisitions.

           1.11       Number of Loans Outstanding.  There shall not be at any
one time outstanding more than five Loans in the aggregate.

           1.12 Overdrafts. In the event Lender honors a check of Borrower
resulting in Borrower's checking account being overdrawn, then Lender shall be
deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to Borrower in the amount of such
overdraft, pursuant to the terms of this section 1, on the Banking Day on which
Borrower's check is tendered to Lender for collection. Lender shall not be
obligated to honor any overdraft of Borrower at any time, whether or not it has
done so prior to such time.

reaffirmed) incorrect in any material respect.

           7.4 Security. Lender shall not have as of the date hereof or shall at
any time hereafter cease to have a valid and perfected first priority Lien in
all of the Collateral including, without limitation, that the grant of the
security interests in any Loan Document shall never have been effective or shall
cease to be effective to grant to Lender (or Lender shall otherwise not have
obtained or cease to have) a first priority Lien in all of the Collateral.

the date hereof, or has ceased to be, valid, effective and enforceable in any
material respect.

           7.6 Cross Default; Default on Other Debt. (a) any other default
(which has not been waived) by any other Person on or with respect to any of the
Obligations (other than under the Loan Documents) occurs, or (b) any default
(which has not been waived) occurs under any other indebtedness or other
obligation of any member of the Inmark Group, or of any guarantor of any of the
Obligations, in an individual principal amount of $25,000 or more or an
aggregate principal amount of $50,000 or more to any one or more third parties,
that entitles any such third party to declare such indebtedness or other
obligation due prior to its date of maturity; provided that the foregoing
provisions shall not apply in the case of any default of indebtedness that is
trade debt that is being disputed in good faith by a member of the Inmark Group
with the trade creditor and where the Inmark Group has established adequate
reserves on its financial statements for such disputed trade debt and has
notified Lender promptly after the commencement of such dispute of (x) the

condition or affairs, financial or otherwise, of any member of the Inmark Group
or of any endorser, guarantor or surety for any of the Obligations, which in the
opinion of Lender impairs Lender's security or materially and adversely affects
its risks (including, without limitation, the termination of any one or more
material Contracts with respect to the business of any member of the Inmark
Group).

days; or (c) any member of the Inmark Group takes any action substantially in
furtherance of, or expressly authorizing or indicating its consent to, approval
of or acquiescence in or expressly proposes to take any of the actions set forth

generally not be able to or fail to, or shall expressly admit in writing its

<PAGE>



securities exercisable for or convertible into such common stock, the "Common

8.         Remedies.

           8.1 Rights in General. Automatically upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default described in section 7.10, and at the option of Lender, upon the
occurrence of any other Event of Default, (a) the Revolving Line of Credit and
all provisions for the making of additional Revolving Loans under this Agreement
shall terminate, (b) the principal and interest of all the Loans and all other
Obligations shall become and be immediately due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by each member of the Inmark Group, and (c) Lender shall
be entitled to exercise forthwith (to the extent and in such order as Lender may
elect, in its sole and absolute discretion) any or all rights and remedies
provided for in any Loan Document, all rights and remedies of a secured party
under the UCC, and all other rights and remedies that may otherwise be available
to Lender by agreement or at law or in equity. The phrase "upon occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default" and similar phrases shall not
imply in any manner that any member of the Inmark Group has the right to cure
any Event of Default after Lender has declared an Event of Default.

            8.2 Set-Off. Each member of the Inmark Group further agrees that:

                      (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to any
member of the Inmark Group (any such notice being expressly waived by each
member of the Inmark Group), to set off and apply (or cause any affiliate of
Lender to set off and apply) any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any
time owing by Lender or such affiliate to or for the credit or the account of
any member of the Inmark Group, against any or all of the Obligations now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement, any Note or otherwise, irrespective of
whether or not Lender shall have made any demand and although such Obligations
may be unmatured.


                                       24

<PAGE>



                      (b) If any other lender has participated or hereafter
participates with Lender with respect to any of the Obligations, each member of
the Inmark Group hereby authorizes such participating lender disclosed to it
prior to set-off, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, immediately and
without notice or other action, at the request of Lender, to set off against any
of Obligations of any member of the Inmark Group to Lender any deposits held or
money owed by such participating lender in any capacity to any member of the
Inmark Group, whether or not due, and to remit the money set off to Lender.

                      (c) The rights stated in this section 8.2 are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of
set-off or lien) that Lender or any participating lender may have.

           8.3 Cumulative Remedies; No Waiver by Lender. No remedy referred to
in any Loan Document is intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative
and in addition to any other remedy referred to in any other Loan Document or
otherwise available to Lender by agreement or at law or in equity. No express or
implied waiver by Lender of any default or Event of Default shall in any way be,
or be construed to be, a waiver of any future or subsequent default or Event of
Default. The failure or delay of Lender in exercising any rights granted it
hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document upon any occurrence of any of the
contingencies set forth herein shall not constitute a waiver of any such right
upon the continuation or recurrence of any such contingency or similar
contingencies, and any single or partial exercise of any particular right by
Lender shall not exhaust the same or constitute a waiver of any other right.

           8.4 Waivers and Consents Relating to Remedies. In connection with any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating in any way to this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, any of the Loans, any of the Collateral, or any act or
omission relating to any of the foregoing:

                      (a) EACH MEMBER OF THE INMARK GROUP AND LENDER EACH HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY;

                      (b) Each member of the Inmark Group and Lender each
consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court of the State of New
Jersey and of any federal court located in the State of New Jersey, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally waive any right to object to such court as an
inconvenient forum; and

                      (c) Each member of the Inmark Group hereby unconditionally
and irrevocably waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other
process in connection with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service
thereof may be made, as Lender may elect, by certified mail directed to any
member of the Inmark Group at the location provided for notices to any member of
the Inmark Group under any Loan Document or, in the alternative, in any other
form or manner permitted by law,

           8.5 Additional Waivers and Consents of the Inmark Group. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, each member of the Inmark Group (a) waives
demand, presentment, notice of dishonor or protest under any Document evidencing
or otherwise relating to the Collateral and/or under or in connection with any
Loan Document; and (b) consents to any of the following by Lender: (i) any
extension, postponement of time of payment or other indulgence, (ii) any
substitution,

                                       25

<PAGE>



exchange or release of Collateral, (iii) any addition to, or release of, any
Person primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, and (iv)
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any
acceptance of partial payments on any Accounts or Documents and the settlement,
compromising or adjustment of any thereof.

9.         Costs, Expenses and Taxes.

           9.1 The Inmark Group agrees to pay to Lender, upon the closing of
this Agreement, and otherwise on demand, all costs and expenses incurred by
Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation and delivery of the
Loan Documents, and any amendments or modifications thereto, and (ii) collecting
any Loan or instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and foreclosing the
security interest in any of the Collateral, whether through judicial proceedings
or otherwise, or in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising
out of or relating to any Loan Document, including reasonable fees and expenses
of counsel (which may include costs of in-house counsel), expenses for auditors,
appraisers and environmental consultants, lien searches, recording and filing
fees and taxes.

           9.2 The Inmark Group agrees to pay any and all stamp, excise,
mortgage recording and other taxes payable or determined to be payable in
connection with the execution, delivery or performance of each Loan Document,
and to pay on demand all liabilities to which Lender may become subject as the
result of delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes.

10. Indemnification by Inmark Group. Each member of the Inmark Group, jointly
and severally, agrees to indemnify each of Lender, its directors, officers and
employees and each legal entity, if any, who controls Lender (the "Indemnified
Parties") and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and
all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without
limitation, all reasonable fees of counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may
consult and all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor) which any
Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified
Party in connection with or arising out of the matters referred to in any other
Loan Document by any Person (including any Person or entity claiming
derivatively on behalf of any member of the Inmark Group), whether (a) arising
from or incurred in connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or
covenant by any member of the Inmark Group, or (b) arising out of or resulting
from any suit, action, claim, proceeding or governmental investigation, pending
or threatened, whether based on statute, regulation or order, or tort, or
contract or otherwise, before any court or Governmental Authority, which arises
out of or relates to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the use of the
proceeds of any Loan; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement
shall not apply to the extent such claims, damages, losses, liabilities and
expenses are solely attributable to an Indemnified Party's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The obligations of each member of the Inmark Group under
this section 10 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the
termination of any of the Loan Documents.

11.        Miscellaneous.

           11.1 Entire Agreement; Amendments; Lender's Consent. This Agreement
(including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) and the other Loan Documents
constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to their
subject matter, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements,
understandings, inducements or conditions among the respective parties, whether
express or implied, oral or written. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
any Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by any member of the Inmark
Group therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Lender, and then

                                       26

<PAGE>



such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given. To the extent this Agreement and any other
Loan Document are actually inconsistent, this Agreement shall control.

may subsequently designate by proper notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
notices and other communications to Lender pursuant to the definition of
Interest Period in Exhibit A and section 1 shall not be effective until
received.

           11.3 Binding Effect. Each Loan Document shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of each member of the Inmark Group and Lender that is a
party thereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that no member
of the Inmark Group shall have the right to assign its rights under any Loan
Document or any interest therein without the prior written consent of Lender.
Each member of the Inmark Group consents to Lender's sale of participations,
assignment, transfer or other disposition, at any time or times, or any Loan
Document or any portion thereof, or of any right, obligation or other interest
herein or therein.

           11.4 Execution in Counterparts. Any Loan Document may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement.

           11.5 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document
that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan
Document or any other Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability
of such provision in any other jurisdiction and each provision which is not
wholly enforceable shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

           11.6 Table of Contents; Headings; Terminology. The table of contents
and headings preceding the text of each Loan Document are inserted solely for
convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of any Loan Document
nor affect its meaning, construction or effect. Amendments of Documents shall

consequential damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract arising out
of or relating to the transactions contemplated by Loan Documents, or any act,
omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith; and each member
of the Inmark

                                       28

<PAGE>



Group hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such
damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist
in its favor.

           11.9 Brokers Fees. Any brokerage commission or finder's fee payable
in connection with the Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby is payable
by the Inmark Group and not by Lender. Each member of the Inmark Group, jointly
and severally, agrees to indemnify Lender, and hold it harmless from and against
any claims of any broker or finder arising out of the transactions contemplated
hereby.

           11.10 Governing Law. Each of the Loan Documents shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without
giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws.

           11.11 Disclosure of Financial Information. Lender and its affiliates
are hereby authorized to disclose any financial or other information about any
member of the Inmark Group to any regulatory body or agency having jurisdiction
over Lender or any such affiliate or to any present, future or prospective
participant or successor in interest in any loan or other financial
accommodation made by Lender or any such affiliate to any member of the Inmark
Group.
