CREDIT LIMIT: $150,000.00 DATE OF AGREEMENT: June 21, 2007
Introduction. This Credit Agreement and Disclosure ("Agreement") governs Borrower's line of credit (the "Credit Line" or the "Credit Line
Account") issued through Members 1 at Federal Credit Union. Borrower agrees to the following terms and conditions:
Promise to Pay. Borrower promises to pay Members 1 at Federal Credit Union, or order, the total of all credit advances and FINANCE CHARGES
, together with all costs and expenses for which Borrower is responsible under this Agreement or under "a Security Agreement" which secures
Borrower's Credit Line. Borrower will pay Borrower's Credit Line according to the payment terms set forth below. If there is more than one
Borrower, each is jointly end severally Gable on this Agreement. This means Lender can require any Borrower to pay sill amounts due under this
Agreement, including credit advances made to any Borrower. Each Borrower authorizes any other Borrower, on his or her signature alone, to
cancel the Credit Line, to request and receive credit advances, and to do ap other things necessary to carry out the terms of this Agreement.
Lender can reless• any Borrower from responsibility under this Agreement, and the others wN remain responsible.
Term. The term of Borrower's Credit Line will begin as of the date of this Agreement ("Opening Date") and will continue until June 21, 2010
("Maturity Date"). All Indebtedness under this Agreement, if not already paid pursuant to the payment provisions below, will be due and
payable upon maturity. The draw period of Borrower's Credit Una will begin on a date, after the Opening Data, when the Agreement Is
accepted by Lender in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, following the perfection of the security agreement, and the meeting of all of Lender's
other conditions. Borrower may obtain credit advances during this period ("Draw Period"). Borrower agrees that Lender may renew or extend
the period during which Borrower may obtain credit advances or make payments. Borrower further agrees that Lender may renew or extend
Borrower's Credit Line Account.
Minimum Payment. Borrower's "Regular Payment" will equal the amount of Borrower's accrued FINANCE CHARGES or $50.00, whichever is
greater. Borrower will make 35 of these payments. Borrower will then be required to pay the entire balance owing in a single balloon payment.
If Borrower makes only the minimum payments, Borrower may not repay any of the principal balance by the end of this payment stream.
Borrower's payments will be due monthly. An Increase in the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE may increase the amount of Borrower's Regular
Payment.
In any event, if Borrower's Credit Line balance falls below $250.00, Borrower agrees to pay Borrower's balance in full. Borrower agrees to pay
not less then the Minimum Payment on or before the due date.
Balloon Payment. Borrower's Credit Line Account is payable in full upon maturity in a single balloon payment. Borrower must pay the entire
outstanding principal, interest and any other charges then due. Unless otherwise required by appflcable law, Lender Is under no obNgation to
refinance the balloon payment at that time. Borrower may be required to make payments out of other assets Borrower owns or find a lender,
which may be Lender, willing to lend Borrower the money. If Borrower refinances the balloon, Borrower may have to pay some or all of the
closing costs normally associated with s new credit lira account, even If Borrower obtains refinancing from Lender.
How Borrower's Payments Are Applied. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments end other credits will be applied first
to late charges and other charges; then to any amounts that exceed Borrower's Credit Limit; then to any voluntary credit life and disability
Insurance premiums; then to Finance Charges; and then to unpaid principal.
Credit Limit. This Agreement covers a revolving line of credit for the principal amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand & 00/100 Dollars
0150,000.00), which will be Borrower's "Credit Limit" under this Agreement. Borrower may borrow against the Credit Line, repay any portion
of the amount borrowed, and re-borrow up to the amount of the Credit Limit. Borrower's Credit Limit is the maximum amount Borrower may
have outstanding at any one time. Borrower agrees not to attempt, request, or obtain a credit advance that will make Borrower's Credit Line
Account balance exceed Borrower's Credit Limit. Borrower's Credit Limit will not be increased should Borrower overdraw Borrower's Credit
Line Account. If Borrower exceeds Borrower's Credit Limit, Borrower agrees to repay immediately the amount by which Borrower's Credit Line
Account exceeds Borrower's Credit Limit. Any amount greater than the Credit Limit will be secured by the security agreement covering
Borrower's property.
Charges to Borrower's Credit Line. Lender may charge Borrower's Credit Line to pay other fees and costs that Borrower is obligated to pay
under this Agreement, the security agreement or any other document related to Borrower's Credit Line. In addition, Lender may charge
Borrower's Credit Line for funds required for continuing insurance coverage as described in the paragraph titled "Insurance" below or as
described in the security agreement for this transaction. Any amount so charged to Borrower's Credit Line will be a credit advance and will
decrease the funds available, if any, under the Credit Line. However, Lender has no obligation to provide any of the credit advances referred to
in this paragraph.
Effective Disbursement Date. The words "Effective Disbursement Date" as used in this Agreement mean a date, after the Opening Date, when
the Agreement is accepted by Lender in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania following the perfection of Lender's security agreements and the
meeting of all of Lender's other conditions. Borrower agrees and understands that Borrower may not receive any credit advance under
Borrower's Credit Line until after the Effective Disbursement Data of this Agreement.
Credit Advances. After the Effective Disbursement Date of this Agreement, Borrower may obtain credit advances under Borrower's Credit Line
as follows:
Telephone Request. Requesting a credit advance from Borrower's Credit Una to be applied to Borrower's designated account by telephone.
Except for transactions covered by the federal Electronic Fund Transfers Act and unless otherwise agreed in your deposit account
agreement, Borrower acknowledges and Borrower agrees that Lender does not accept responsibility for the authenticity of telephone
instructions and that Lender will not be liable for any loss, expense, or cost arising out of any telephone request, including any fraudulent or
unauthorized telephone request, when acting upon such instructions believed to be genuine.
Requests By Mail. Requesting an advance by mail.
Requests in Person. Requesting a credit advance in person at any of Lender's authorized locations.

one Borrower telling Lender not to give advances to the other.
Transaction Requirements. The following transaction limitations will apply to the use of Borrower's Credit Line:
Request By Mail, In Person Request and Telephone Request Limitations. There are no transaction limitations for requesting an advance by
mail, requesting an advance in person or requesting an advance by telephone.
Future Credit Line Services. Borrower's application for this Credit Line also serves as a request to receive any new services (auch as access
devices) which may be available at some future time as one of Lender's services in connection with this Credit Line. Borrower understands that
this request is voluntary and that Borrower may refuse any of these now services at the time they are offered. Borrower further understands
that the terms and conditions of this Agreement, together with any specific terms covering the new service, will govern any transactions made
pursuant to any of these new services.
Collateral. Borrower acknowledges this Agreement is secured by the following collateral described in the security Instrument listed herein:
Inventory, chattel paper, accounts, equipment and general intangibles described in a Commercial Security Agreement dated June 21, 2007.
Insurance. Borrower must obtain insurance on the Property securing this Agreement that is reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower may
obtain property insurance through any company of Borrower's choice that is reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower has the option of
providing any insurance required under this Agreement through an existing policy or a policy independently obtained and paid for by Borrower,
subject to Lender's right, for reasonable cause before credit is extended, to decline any insurance provided by Borrower. Subject to applicable
law, if Borrower fails to obtain or maintain insurance as required in the security agreement, Lender may purchase insurance to protect Lender's
own interest, add the premium to Borrower's balance, declare the loan in default, or do any one or more of these things.
Statutory Lien. Borrower agrees that all credit advances Borrower receives under the plan are secured by all shares and deposits in all joint and
individual accounts Borrower has with Lender now and in the future. Borrower authorizes Lender to apply the balance in these accounts to pay
any amounts due under this Agreement when Borrower Is In default under this Agreement. Shares and deposits in an Individual Retirement
Account and any other account that would lose special tax treatment under state or federal low if given as security are not subject to the
security interest Borrower has given in Borrower's shares and deposits.
When FINANCE CHARGES Begin to Accrue. Periodic FINANCE CHARGES for credit advances under Borrower's Credit Line will begin to accrue
on the date credit advances are posted to Borrower's Credit Line. There is no "free ride period" which would allow Borrower to avoid a
FINANCE CHARGE on Borrower's Credit Line credit advances.
Method Used to Determine the Balance on Which the FINANCE CHARGE WO Be Computed. A monthly FINANCE CHARGE will be imposed on
all credit advances made under Borrower's Credit Line Imposed from the date of each credit advance based on the "average daily balance"
method. To get the average dally balance, Lender takes the beginning balance of Borrower's Credit Line Account each day, add any new
advances and subtract any payments or credits. This gives Lender a daily balance. Then, Lender adds up all the dally balances for the
statement cycle and divides the total by the number of days in the statement cycle. This gives Lander the "average daily balance."
Method of Determining the Amount of FINANCE CHARGE. Any FINANCE CHARGE is determined by applying the monthly "Periodic Rate" to the
balance described herein. This Is Borrower's FINANCE CHARGE calculated by applying a Periodic Rate.
Borrower also agrees to pay FINANCE CHARGES, not calculated by applying a Periodic Rate, as set forth below:
Minimum FINANCE CHARGE. In any event, including payment of the Credit Line balance in full, Borrower may have to pay a Minimum
FINANCE CHARGE of $0.50. This fee will be charged as follows: Monthly.
Annual Review Fee. At the time of an annual review of Borrower's Credit Line Account Borrower will be charged a fee as follows: 0.00.
Periodic Rate and Corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. The Periodic Rate and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE on
Borrower's Credit Line are subject to change from time to time based on changes in an index which is Lender's Prime Rate (the "Index"). This is
the rate Lender charges, or would charge, on 90-day unsecured loans to the most creditworthy corporate customers. This rate may or may not
be the lowest rate available from Lender at any given time. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE on Borrower's Credit Line is based upon the
Index and the margin described below ("Margin").
The Periodic Rate and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE on Borrower's Credit Line will increase or decrease as the Index
increases or decreases from time to time. Lender will determine the Periodic Rate and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE as
follows: Lender starts with the current Index and then adds a certain Margin as disclosed below. To determine the Periodic Rate that will apply
to Borrower's account, Lander adds a margin to the value of the Index, then divides the value by 12 (monthly). To obtain the ANNUAL
PERCENTAGE RATE Lender multiplies the Periodic Rate by 12 (monthly). This result is the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. In no event will the
corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE be less than 3.000% per annum or more than the lesser of 18.000% or the maximum rate allowed
by applicable law. Adjustments to the Periodic Rate and the corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE resulting from changes in the Index
will take effect the first business day after a payment is made following a change in interest rates. Notwithstanding the above provisions, the
maximum increase or decrease in the interest rate at any one time on this loan will not exceed 3.000 percentage points. Today the Index is
8.250% per annum, and therefore the initial ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE and the corresponding Periodic Rate on Borrower's Credit Line are as
stated below:
Current Rates for the First Payment Stream
Range of Balance Margin Added
or Conditions to Index
AN Balances 1.000%
ANNUAL PERCENTAGE
RATE
9.250%
Monthly Periodic
Rate
0.77083%
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Lender will not charge interest on any undisbursed loan proceeds.
Forgo Rats Increases. If we forgo an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE increase, at the time of a later adjustment we may return to the full Index
value plus margin.
Conditions Under Which Other Charges May Be Imposed. Borrower agrees to pay all the other fees and charges related to Borrower's Credit
Line as set forth below:
Fee to Stop Payment. Borrower's Credit Line Account may be charged 830.00 when Borrower requests a stop payment on Borrower's
account.
Late Charge. In addition to Lender's rights upon default, Borrower's payment will be late if It is not received by Lender within 15 days after
the "Payment is Date" shown on the voucher Borrower receives with each credit advance. If Borrower's oavment is late Lander may

Right to Credit Advances. After the Effective Disbursement Date, Lender will honor Borrower's requests for credit advances up to Borrower's
Credit Limit so long as: (A) Borrower is not in default under the terms of this Agreement; (B) this Agreement has not been terminated or
suspended; and (C) Borrower's Credit Line has not been cancelled as provided above in the section of this Agreement titled "Term."
Default. Lender may declare Borrower to be in default if any one or more of the following events occur: (A) Borrower fails to pay a Minimum
Payment when due; (B) an event of default occurs under the security agreement for the Property; (C) the Property is further encumbered in
any way, voluntarily or involuntarily; (D) Borrower dies; (E) Borrower makes any false or misleading statements on Borrower's Credit Line
application; IF) Borrower violates any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement with Lender; (G) any garnishment, attachment, or
execution is Issued against any material asset owned by Borrower; IH) Borrower exceeds Borrower's Credit Limit; (1) Borrower files for
bankruptcy or other insolvency relief, or an involuntary petition under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code is filed against Borrower; (J)
Lender in good faith believes itself insecure.
Lender's Rights. If Borrower is in default, Lender will send notice to Borrower setting forth a time period of at least thirty (30) days within
which such default may be cured. During this cure period, without notice, Lender may suspend Borrower's Credit Line as provided below. If
such default is not cured during this period, Lender may either terminate or continue suspension of Borrower's Credit Line Account.
Suspension. If Lender suspends Borrower's Credit Line, Borrower will lose the right to obtain further credit advances. However, all other
terms of this Agreement will remain in effect and be binding upon Borrower, Including Borrower's liability for any further unauthorized use
of any Credit Line access devices.
Termination. If Lender terminates Borrower's Credit Line, Borrower's Credit Line will be suspended and the entire unpaid balance of
Borrower's Credit Line Account will be immediately due and payable, without prior notice except as may be required by law, and Borrower
agrees to pay that amount plus all FINANCE CHARGES and other amounts due under this Agreement.
Collection Costs. Lender may hire or pay someone also to help collect this Agreement if Borrower does not pay. Borrower will pay Lender
that amount. This includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees and Lender's legal expenses, whether or
not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees, expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic
stay or injunction), and appeals. If not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower also will pay any court costs, In addition to all other sums
provided by law.
Rate Increase. In addition to Lender's other rights on default, Lender may increase the variable interest rate under this Agreement to
15.000 percent per annum. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. If Lender does not Increase
the interest rate on default, it will continue at the variable rate in effect as of the date Lender declares a default.
Delay in Enforcement. Lender may delay or waive the enforcement of any of Lender's rights under this Agreement without losing that right or
any other right. If Lender delays or waives any of Lender's rights, Lender may enforce that right at any time in the future without advance
notice. For example, not terminating Borrower's account for non-payment will not be a waiver of Lender's right to terminate Borrower's account
in the future if Borrower has not paid.
Termination by Borrower. If Borrower terminates this Agreement, Borrower must notify Lender. Despite termination, Borrower's obligations
under this Agreement will remain in full force and effect until Borrower has paid Lender all amounts due under this Agreement.
Prepayment. Borrower may prepay all or any amount owing under this Credit Line at any time without penalty, except Lender will be entitled to
receive the Minimum FINANCE CHARGES as stated above and to receive all accrued FINANCE CHARGES, and other charges, if any. Payments
in excess of Borrower's Minimum Payment will not relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make Borrower's Minimum
Payments. Instead, they will reduce the principal balance owed on the Credit Line. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid
in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights
under this Agreement, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning

JUDGMENT ARE SET FORTH BELOW:
Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 2959 - Striking Off Judgment
(a) (1) Relief from a judgment by confession shall besought by petition. Except as provided in
subparagraph (2), all grounds for relief whether to strike off the judgment or to open it must be
asserted in a single petition. The petition may be filed in the county in which the judgment was
originally entered, in any county to which the judgment has been transferred or in any other county
in which the sheriff has received a writ of execution directed to the sheriff to enforce the judgment.
(2) The ground that the waiver of the due process rights of notice and hearing was not
voluntary, intelligent and knowing shall be raised only:
(i) in support of a further request for a stay of execution where the court has not
stayed execution despite the timely filing of a petition for relief from the judgment and the
presentation of prima facie evidence of a defense; and
(ii) as provided by Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 2958.3 or Rule 2973.3.
(3) If written notice is served upon the petitioner pursuant to Rule 2956.1(c)(2) or Rule
2973.1(c), the petition shall be filed within thirty days after such service. Unless the defendant can
demonstrate that there were compelling reasons for the delay, a petition not timely filed shall be
