Each written request for a conversion to a LIBOR Rate Extension or a continuation of a LIBOR Rate Extension shall be substantially in the form of a Libor Rate Conversion/Continuation Certificate as set forth on Exhibit B-2, which shall be duly executed by a Responsible Officer. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, three (3) Business Days after Bank's receipt of such a request from Borrower, such Prime Rate Extensions shall be converted to LIBOR Rate Extensions or such LIBOR Rate Extensions shall continue, as the case may be provided that: (i) no Event of Default or event which with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default exists; (ii) no party hereto shall have sent any notice of termination of the Agreement; (iii) Borrower shall have complied with such reasonable and customary procedures as Bank has established from time to time for Borrower's requests for LIBOR Rate Extensions; and (iv) the amount of a LIBOR Rate Extension shall be $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $500,000.

(a) If for any reason (including voluntary or mandatory prepayment or acceleration), Bank receives all or part of the principal amount of a LIBOR Rate Extension prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Extension, Borrower shall on demand by Bank, pay Bank the amount (if any) by which (i) the additional interest which would have been payable on the amount so received had it not been received until the last day of such Interest Period or term exceeds (ii) the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount so received on deposit in the London Dollar interbank markets for a period starting on the date on which it was so received and ending on the last day of such Interest Period. Bank's determination as to such amount shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (b) Borrower shall pay to Bank, upon demand by Bank, from time to time such amounts as Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by Bank that Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by Bank hereunder in respect of any Credit Extensions relating thereto (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Bank under this Agreement in respect of any Credit Extensions (other than changes which affect taxes measured by or imposed on the overall net income of Bank by the jurisdiction in which Bank has its principal office or its lending office); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of Bank (including any Credit Extensions or any deposits referred to in the definition of "LIBOR Base Rate" other than those reflected in the calculation of the Reserve Requirement); or (iii) imposes any other material condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities). Bank will notify Borrower of any event occurring after the date of the Agreement that will entitle Bank to compensation pursuant to this section as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be liable for any Additional Costs which relate to a period more than 90 days prior to the giving of such notices by Bank. Bank will furnish Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis and a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of each request by Bank for compensation under this Section 2.6. Determinations and allocations by Bank for purposes of this Section 2.6 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Credit Extensions or of making or maintaining Credit Extensions or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Credit Extensions, and of the additional amounts required to compensate Bank in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (c) Borrower shall pay to Bank, upon the request of Bank, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the sole good faith opinion of Bank) to compensate it for any reasonable loss, costs or expense incurred by it as a result of any failure by Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Rate Extension on the date for such borrowing specified in the relevant notice of borrowing hereunder. 11 13 (d) If Bank shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its applicable lending office) with any respect or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Bank or any person or entity controlling Bank (a "Parent") as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction, other than amounts which relate to a period more than 90 days prior to the making of such demand by Bank. A statement of Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (e) If at any time Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that: (i) the amount of the LIBOR Rate Extensions for periods equal to the corresponding Interest Periods or any other period are not available to Bank in the offshore currency interbank markets, or (ii) the LIBOR Rate does not accurately reflect the cost to Bank of lending the LIBOR Rate Extension, then Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower, and upon the giving of such notice Bank's obligation to make the LIBOR Rate Extensions shall be suspended until such conditions no longer exist, unless Bank and Borrower agree in writing to a different interest rate applicable to LIBOR Rate Extensions. If it shall become unlawful for Bank to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Rate Extensions, upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall prepay the LIBOR Rate Extensions in full with accrued interest thereon (including, without limitation, any amount payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.6(a)). 2.7 Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date and, subject to Section 12.7, shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the Term Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to terminate its obligation to make Credit Extensions under this Agreement immediately and without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Notwithstanding termination, Bank's Lien on the Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding. 3. CONDITIONS OF CREDIT EXTENSIONS. 3.1 Conditions Precedent to Initial Credit Extension. The obligation of Bank to make the initial Credit Extension after the Closing Date is subject to the condition precedent that Bank shall have received, in form and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following: (a) this Agreement; (b) a certificate of the Secretary of Borrower with respect to articles, bylaws, incumbency and resolutions authorizing the execution and delivery of this Agreement; (c) an intellectual property security agreement; and (d) such other documents, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate. 3.2 Conditions Precedent to all Credit Extensions.

The making of each Credit Extension shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower on the date of such Credit Extension as to the accuracy of the facts referred to in this Section 3.2(b). 4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. 4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants and pledges to Bank a continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter acquired or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and all Obligations and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. Except for Permitted Liens, such security interest shall constitute a valid, first priority security interest in the presently existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest in Collateral acquired after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest granted herein does not extend to and the term "Collateral" does not include any license or contract rights to the extent (i) the granting of a security interest in it would be contrary to applicable law, or (ii) that such rights are nonassignable by their terms (but only to the extent the prohibition is enforceable under applicable law, including, without limitation, Section 9318(4) of the Code) without the consent of the licensor or other party (but only to the extent such consent has not been obtained). Borrower shall take such steps as Bank reasonably requests to obtain the consent of, or waiver by, any person whose consent or waiver is necessary for such licenses or contract rights to be deemed "Collateral" and for Bank to have a security interest in it that might otherwise be restricted or prohibited by law or by the terms of any such license or agreement, whether now existing or entered into in the future. 4.2 Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Borrower shall from time to time execute and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all Negotiable Collateral, all financing statements and other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to perfect and continue perfected Bank's security interests in the Collateral and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents. 4.3 Right to Inspect. Bank (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right at Borrower' expense (not to exceed $5,000 per annum, as long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing) upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time during Borrower's usual business hours, to inspect Borrower's Books and to make copies thereof and to check, test, and audit and appraise the Collateral in order to verify Borrower's financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral. 5.

BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower: (a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); (b) Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank; (c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, upon terms and in whatever order that Bank reasonably considers advisable; (d) Make such payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in Bank's determination appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith. With respect to any of Borrower's owned premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise; 20 22 (e) Set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by Bank; (f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral. Bank is hereby granted a license or other right, solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge, Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Bank's exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Bank's benefit except to the extent such license would result in a breach of such agreement; (g) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Bank determines is commercially reasonable, and apply any proceeds to the Obligations in whatever manner or order Bank deems appropriate; (h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and (i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. 9.2 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Bank (and any of Bank's designated officers, or employees) as Borrower's true and lawful attorney to: (a) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, send requests for verification of Accounts or notify account debtors of Bank's security interest in the Accounts; (b) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, endorse Borrower's name on any checks or other forms of payment or security that may come into Bank's possession; (c) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, sign Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Account, drafts against account debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, verifications of Accounts, and notices to account debtors; (d) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, dispose of any Collateral; (e) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, make, settle, and adjust all claims under and decisions with respect to Borrower's policies of insurance; and (f) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the accounts directly with account debtors, for amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; provided Bank may exercise such power of attorney to sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower's attorney in fact, and each and every one of Bank's rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Bank's obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated. 9.3 Accounts Collection. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to Borrower of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such Account. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall collect all amounts owing to Borrower for Bank, receive in trust all payments as Bank's trustee, and immediately deliver such payments to Bank in their original form as received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit. 9.4 Bank Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as required under the terms of this Agreement, then Bank may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Revolving Facility as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.6 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement. 21 23 9.5 Bank's Liability for Collateral. Except as provided under the Code, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. 9.6 Remedies Cumulative. Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. 9.7 Demand; Protest. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may in any way be liable. 10.

To the best of my knowledge and belief, this information is correct and may be relied upon by you as a basis for advancing any credit to us. ---------------------------------------------- Customer Signature Notes: (1) Federal Government A/R - Customers that are a part of the Federal Government. This does not include any state or local governments. Assignments of claim must be filed to include receivables as eligible collateral if they exceed $1,000. (2) Foreign A/R - Includes any customer that is located outside of the United States. This includes foreign affiliates or divisions of domestic corporations. The originating locations of obligor purchase orders and payments remitted by them are the determining factors when labeling the obligor as a foreign account. Such A/R is not eligible unless backed by a confirmed L/C or (3) CONTRA ACCOUNTS - CONTRAS EXIST WHEN THERE IS A LIABILITY OWING TO A CUSTOMER ON YOUR ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AGING. A GOOD WAY TO REVEAL CONTRA ACCOUNTS IS TO COMPARE THE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AGING AND ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AGING FOR ACCOUNTS FOR LIKE ACCOUNTS AT MONTH END. (4) Affiliate Accounts - An accounts receivable account in which you have a material interest is an affiliate account. Employee accounts, salesman accounts, and related company accounts are all examples of affiliate accounts. (5) 25% RULE - IF OVER 25% OF THE TOTAL FOR THIS CUSTOMER IS OVER 90 DAYS, THIS WILL ELIMINATE THE CUSTOMER ENTIRELY. LOOK DOWN THE PRIORS COLUMN (90 DAY) FOR OUTSTANDING DOLLARS. WHEN YOU REACH FIGURE, MANUALLY QUADRUPLE IT. COMPARE TO TOTAL OUTSTANDING FOR THAT CUSTOMER. IF GREATER THAN TOTAL, THE ACCOUNT WOULD BE ELIMINATED. CONTINUE THIS PROCESS THROUGH THE AGING. (6) CONCENTRATIONS - THERE IS A CONCENTRATION CLAUSE IN EVERY LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT. BASED UPON YOUR CONCENTRATION ALLOWANCE (USUALLY 20% OF TOTAL A/R) DETERMINE WHAT WOULD BE INELIGIBLE BY MULTIPLYING THE TOTAL A/R BY 20% OF WHATEVER IS ALLOWED. IF ANY CUSTOMER EXCEEDS THIS AMOUNT, THE EXCESS IS INELIGIBLE (LESS ANY PORTION IN THE PRIORS OR RETENTION COLUMN) EXCEPT FOR U.S. COURTS WHERE 25% CONCENTRATION IS PERMITTED. (7) Other - Progress billings, service (maintenance) contracts, commissions, container receivables, non-trade receivables, Chapter 11 receivables, any invoices (e.g., COD, cash account and miscellaneous) for which customer signed documentation is not available (verifying that shipment was received or services were provided). (8) Old Credit - Any credit over 50 days is to be added back as a positive number. 31 EXHIBIT D PHARMCHEM LABORATORIES, INC. COMERICA BANK COVENANT REPORTING - 2000 ($000'S Omitted)
