After applying the proceeds of each Advance, such margin stock will not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets (either of Borrower or any Guarantor alone or of Borrower and the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) that are subject to any provisions of this Agreement or any Loan Document that may cause the Advances to be deemed secured, directly or indirectly, by margin stock; (U) No report or other information furnished in writing by or on behalf of Borrower or any Guarantor to you in connection with the negotiation or administration of this Agreement contains any material misstatement of fact or, when considered together with Borrower's filings with the SEC and all other information so furnished to you, omits to state any material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made. Neither this Agreement, the Note nor any other Loan Document, certificate, or report or statement or other information furnished to you by or on behalf of Borrower or any Guarantor in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or, when considered together with Borrower's filings with the SEC and all other information so furnished to you, omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein and therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made. There is no fact known to Borrower or any Guarantor which materially and adversely affects, or which in the future may (so far as Borrower or any Guarantor can now foresee) materially and adversely affect, the business, properties, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, which has not been set forth in this Agreement or in the other documents, certificates, statements, reports and other information furnished in writing, including Borrower's 2001 Form 10-K filing with the SEC, to you by or on behalf of Borrower or the Guarantors in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; (V) Borrower and the Guarantors are engaged as an integrated group in the business of providing permanent and temporary personnel placements. The integrated operation requires financing on such a basis that credit supplied can be made available from time to time to Borrower and the Guarantors, as required for the continued successful operation of Borrower and the Guarantors and the integrated operation as a whole, and Borrower and the Guarantors have requested that you make credit available to Borrower primarily for the purpose of financing the integrated operation of Borrower and Guarantors, with each of Borrower and Guarantors expecting to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the credit extended by you, both in its separate capacity and as a member of the integrated group, inasmuch as the successful operation and condition of each of Borrower and the Guarantors is dependent upon the continued successful performance of the functions of the integrated group as a whole; (W) Each of Borrower and the Guarantors is solvent, able to pay its Indebtedness as it matures, and has capital sufficient to carry on its business and all businesses in which it is about to engage, and the present fair saleable value of the assets of each of Borrower and each such Guarantor is greater than the amount of Borrower's or such Guarantor's, as the case may be, Indebtedness. Borrower 11 and the Guarantors on a consolidated basis are solvent, able to pay their Indebtedness as it matures, and have capital sufficient to carry on their business and all businesses in which they are about to engage, and the present fair saleable value of their assets on a consolidated basis is greater than the amount of their Indebtedness on a consolidated basis; and (X) We have no Indebtedness (other than trade payables and accrued expenses) other than as set forth on the Term Sheet. (Y) We have no Deposit Accounts other than as set forth on the Term Sheet. 9. CONDITIONS TO OBLIGATIONS OF LENDER. (A) Conditions for Closing.

(A) If a Default occurs under this Agreement, or any Rider or any other document or instrument executed by the undersigned or any Guarantor, you may, at your election, without notice of your election and without demand, do any one or more of the following: (a) declare our Obligations, whether evidenced by a revolving credit note, a term note or otherwise, to be immediately due and payable; (b) stop advancing money or extending credit to or for our benefit under the Agreement or any Rider; (c) exercise any and all of the rights accruing to a secured party under the Code and any other applicable law; (d) take possession of the Collateral and keep it on our premises, at no cost to you, or remove any part of it to such other place(s) as you may desire or we shall, upon your demand, at our cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available to you at a place reasonably convenient to you. (B) You may sell and deliver any Collateral at public or private sales, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as you deem advisable, at your discretion, and may, if you deem it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale of the Collateral by an announcement at the time and place of sale of such postponed or adjourned sale without giving a new notice of sale. We agree that you have no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshall any Collateral for the benefit of any Person. You are hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, our labels, patents, copyrights, name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any similar property, in completing production, advertising or selling any Collateral and our rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to your benefit. Any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to us at our address set forth below at least five (5) days before sale or other disposition.

You will return any excess to us and we shall remain liable for any deficiency. (C) IN THE EVENT OF A DEFAULT HEREUNDER, WE HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO NOTICE AND HEARING PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY YOU OF YOUR RIGHTS TO REPOSSESS THE COLLATERAL WITHOUT JUDICIAL PROCESS OR TO REPLEVY, ATTACH OR LEVY UPON SUCH COLLATERAL WITHOUT NOTICE OR HEARING AND ALL RIGHTS OF SET-OFF AND COUNTERCLAIM AGAINST YOU. 15. WAIVER; AMENDMENTS; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Your failure to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement or any Rider or other agreement between you and us or delay by you in exercising the same will not operate as a waiver. No waiver by you will be effective unless in writing and then only to the extent stated. No waiver by you shall affect your right to require strict performance of this Agreement. Your rights and remedies will be cumulative and not exclusive. This Agreement cannot be changed or terminated orally. All terms, conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties shall inure to the benefit of and bind your and our respective representatives, successors and assigns. 16. BANKRUPTCY PROVISIONS. In consideration of your agreements hereunder and under the Loan Documents, we agree that, in the event any one or more of us (as a "Debtor" or "Debtors") files for relief under Title 11 of the United States Code ("Bankruptcy Code") or is otherwise subject to an order for relief under the Bankruptcy Code, that as to each Debtor: (A) Relief From Stay. You shall be entitled to relief from the automatic stay imposed by Bankruptcy Code Section 362 on or against the exercise of any and all rights and remedies available to you under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law, if Debtor fails to file a Plan of Reorganization within 180 days or fails to obtain confirmation of a Plan of Reorganization within 90 days after such filing. We specifically acknowledge that "cause" exists for such relief within the meaning of Section 362(d) of the Bankruptcy Code. (B) Cash Collateral. Any attempt by Debtor to use "Cash Collateral" (as defined in Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be subject to the prior entry of an order pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code ("Cash Collateral Order") specifically incorporating the principal terms set forth on Schedule 16(B) attached hereto and the Debtor shall under no circumstances seek to use Cash Collateral other than on the terms provided in this Agreement. Any such Cash Collateral Order shall permit the use of Cash Collateral only until the earliest to occur of: (i) a Default under any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents (other than a Default occasioned solely by the bankruptcy of Debtor), (ii) the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee or examiner in Debtor's case, (iii) the dismissal of Debtor's case or its conversion to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (iv) the entry of an order modifying or terminating the automatic stay or prohibiting the further use of cash collateral. Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in (i) through (iv) of the preceding sentence, Debtor's ability to use Cash Collateral shall terminate immediately and automatically; such termination shall not, however, affect or impair the rights, interests or liens granted to you under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. All existing and future revenue and cash shall constitute Cash Collateral, subject to your choate, fully perfected and presently enforceable liens and security interests, and, to the extent they are used and consumed by Debtor after filing of the petition or entry of the order for relief, Debtor specifically agrees that they are collateral for your secured claims under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code in the amount so used. 18 To the extent it is determined that Section 552(a) of the Bankruptcy Code applies to limit your interest under the Loan Documents and this Agreement you shall be deemed to have, as adequate protection for the use of Cash Collateral, a continuing perfected protection for the use of Cash Collateral, a continuing perfected post-bankruptcy lien and security interest in all Collateral, and all revenue and cash, whether derived from operations prior to or subsequent to or the filing of a voluntary of involuntary petition for relief with respect to Debtor. As further adequate protection for Debtor's use of Cash Collateral, Debtor shall maintain at all times an adequate and appropriate amount and type of coverage of insurance, including endorsements issued therewith covering the Collateral in amounts not less than that required under the Loan Documents. To the extent that the collateral securing your claims in Debtor's bankruptcy case is deemed or proves to be insufficient to pay your claims in full, your secured claims shall be deemed to have been inadequately protected by the provisions of the Cash Collateral Order, and they shall therefore have administrative expenses of the kind specified in Sections 503(b) and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, which superpriority shall be equal to the priority provided under the provisions of Section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code over all other costs and administrative expenses incurred in the case of the kind specified in, or ordered pursuant to, Sections 105, 326, 327, 330, 331, 503(b), 506(c), 507(a), 507(b) or 726 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall at all times be senior to the rights of Debtor or any successor trustee in the resulting bankruptcy proceeding or any subsequent proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code. During the pendency of Debtor's bankruptcy, if it is determined that any of the rights granted hereunder or by any of the Loan Documents are security interests or liens, they shall be deemed perfected without the necessity of the filing of any documents or commencement of proceedings otherwise required under non-bankruptcy law for the perfection of security interests, with such perfection being binding upon any subsequently appointed trustee, either in Chapter 11 or under any other Chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, and upon other creditors of Debtor who have or may hereafter extend secured or unsecured credit to Debtor. (C) Surcharge Waiver. Debtor and/or any other representative of Debtor's bankruptcy estate waives any right to seek a surcharge of your collateral under 11 U.S.C. (S) 506(c) or any other provision of applicable law. (D) Other Waivers. Debtor waives any right to seek an order under 11 U.S.C. (S)(S) 363, 364, 1129 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code, imposing liens or security interests of senior or equal priority with your liens and security interests in the Collateral or the Cash Collateral. (E) Other Actions Not Prohibited. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 16 shall be deemed to limit or restrict your rights to seek in the bankruptcy court any relief that you may deem appropriate in the event of a bankruptcy commenced by or against Debtor, and in particular, you shall be free to seek the dismissal or conversion of any case filed by Debtor, the appointment of a trustee or examiner, and relief from the automatic stay. 17. MISCELLANEOUS. (A) If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited or invalid, under applicable law, it shall be ineffective only to such extent, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement. (B) This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state set forth on the Term Sheet. 19 (C) All of our representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery and acceptance thereof by the parties. (D) No termination of this Agreement or of any guaranty of the Obligations shall affect or impair the powers, obligations, duties, rights, warranties, representations or liabilities of the parties hereto and all shall survive such termination. (E) Each Obligation may, in your discretion, be evidenced by notes or other instruments issued or made by us to you. If not so evidenced, such Obligation shall be evidenced solely by entries upon your books and records. (F) All Obligations shall constitute one loan secured by the Collateral. You may, in your sole discretion: (i) exchange, enforce, waive or release any of the Collateral or (ii) apply Collateral and direct the order or manner without affecting your right to take any other action with respect to any other Collateral. (G) You shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any and all payments to any portion of the Obligations. To the extent that we make a payment or you receive any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for our benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by you. (H) We shall reimburse you for all expenses incurred or to be incurred by you in connection with (a) the negotiation, preparation and closing of this Agreement; (b) amendments and modifications to this Agreement; (c) the protection, perfection or preservation of your security interest in or lien upon the Collateral; (d) your inspection or verification of the Collateral; (e) any court or bankruptcy proceeding relating to the Agreement or any claim or action by any Person against you which would not have been asserted were it not for your relationship with us hereunder or otherwise; (f) actions taken with respect to the Collateral and your security interest or lien therein; and (g) review and analysis regarding our compliance or failure to comply with the Obligations and/or the enforcement of any of your rights and remedies with respect to the Obligations or Collateral. The foregoing expenses shall include, without limitation: (i) reasonable fees, costs and expenses of your outside and in-house attorneys and paralegals; (ii) interest on the foregoing at the highest applicable interest rate provided under any Rider to this Agreement, which shall be part of the Obligations, payable on demand and secured by the Collateral. In addition, we shall pay those fees set forth on the Rider at the times specified therein. In recognition of your right to have all your expenses incurred or to be incurred in connection with this Agreement and the fees due you secured by the Collateral, you shall not be required to record any discharge of your lien or termination of your security interest unless and until we deliver to you a general release acceptable to you. (I) We agree to give you written notice of any action or omission by you or your agents in connection with this Agreement that may be actionable against you or that may be a defense to payment of the Obligations for any reasons. We further agree that unless such a notice specifically describing the action or omission is given by us within thirty (30) days after we have knowledge or with the exercise of reasonable diligence should have had knowledge of the occurrence of said action or omission we shall not assert, and we shall be deemed to have waived, any claim or defense arising therefrom. (J) If you shall breach your obligation under this Agreement to make an advance under the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding our conformance with the provisions thereof, we 20 agree that our sole remedy on account thereof shall be to recover liquidated damages on account of such breach, computed as hereinafter provided, in recognition of the fact that the damages which we might incur are uncertain and speculative. Liquidated damages to which we shall be entitled shall be equal to sixty (60) times the interest payable for one day on the loans outstanding as of the day that you are deemed to have failed to fund. In any event, you shall never be liable to us for special, indirect and consequential damages, whatever the nature of your breach hereunder. (K) We authorize and direct you to disburse, for our account, the proceeds of loans made by you to us to such Person as any of our officers or directors shall direct, whether in writing or orally. (L) Any notice required hereunder shall be in writing, and addressed to the party to be notified as follows: If to you: Donald G. Barr, Jr., President Greenfield Commercial Credit, L.L.C. 1301 West Long Lake Road, Suite 190 Troy, Michigan 48098 If to us: The Borrower's Address set forth on the Term Sheet. or to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice. (M) We represent and warrant to you that, with respect to the financing transaction herein contemplated, no Person is entitled to any brokerage fee or other commission and we agree to indemnify and hold you harmless against any and all such claims. (N) The paragraph titles contained in this Agreement are without substantive meaning and are not part of the Agreement. 18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Our legal counsel has advised us that (i) there may be a constitutional right to a jury trial in connection with any claim, dispute or lawsuit arising out of this Agreement or any Rider and (ii) such constitutional right may be waived. After consultation with our counsel (which has included our counsel's review of this Agreement), we believe that it is in our best interest in this commercial transaction to waive such right. Accordingly, we hereby waive our right to a jury trial, and further agree that the best forum for hearing any claim, dispute or lawsuit, if any, arising in connection with this Agreement or any Rider or our relationship with you, shall be a court of competent jurisdiction sitting without a jury. 19. NO ORAL AGREEMENTS. We acknowledge that this Agreement and each Rider represents the final agreement between you and us and the terms of such documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements that may have or will be exchanged between you (including your officers, employees and agents) and us.

Ditto Litigation. 1. Ditto Properties Company vs. U.S.F.G. L.P. No., Inc., a/k/a DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc., J. Michael Moore, USFG, Inc. and U.S.F.G./DHRG L.P. No.1(herein referred to as the "Initial Action"") 2. Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc. f/k/a Diversified Human Resources Group, inc. and U.S.F.G./DHRG L.P. No. 2, Inc. (the "DCRI Action") 3. Dallas County, Texas 4. 191/st/ District Court 5. Case No. 96-10710 6. In 1996, Ditto Properties Company ("DPC") filed the Initial Action; Mr. Moore and the Company were also initially named as garnishees in the lawsuit with respect to 899,200 shares (the " LP Shares") of common stock (the "Common Stock") of the Company which were the subject matter of a series of transactions in 1993 (collectively referred to herein as the "1993 Transactions") which ultimately resulted in the LP Shares being conveyed by DPC to DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc. ("L.P. No. 2"). Subsequent to the initial filing of the litigation by DPC, Mr. Moore and the Company were added as defendants in such proceedings, and F. Scott Otey ("Otey") and Jeffery Loadman ("Loadman") intervened as parties to the Ditto Litigation. Due to recently granted motions for summary judgment in favor of L.P. No. 2, Mr. Moore and the Company, neither Otey nor Loadman remain as parties to the Ditto litigation. The DCRI Action and the DCRI Action were ultimately consolidated into one case. The date pending for the trial is February 3, 2003. Schedule 8(F)-1 DPC and Donald Ditto ("Ditto") allege, among other things, that the Defendants fraudulently induced DPC to sell 899.200 shares (the "Shares") of Common Stock to L.P. No. 2 and failed to perform under the related Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 26,1993 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"). The claim of DPC and Donald Ditto is that they are entitled to recover from the Company, Mr. Moore, DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc. and others, jointly and severally, compensatory damages in the amount of at least $6.5 million punitive and exemplary damages totaling at least $26.1 million interest on the amount of damages incurred, legal fees and attorney fees. In the DCRI Action, the Company claims that DPC and Ditto filed the Initial Action for the purpose of disrupting the Company's plans in 1996 to effectuate a public offering of the Company's stock. In 1997, the Company sold some 500,000 shares of its common stock at $10 per share, instead of the price of some $25 per share as contemplated in 1996. B. Dillard litigation. 1. Ted Dillard vs. Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc., J. Michael Moore, and Samuel E. Hunter. 2. Dallas County, Texas 3. District Court No. H-160th 4. Case No. 02-10197 5. Amount of Claim - 6. Date Filed - October 29, 2002 7. The primary claim is that Mr. Dillard was fraudulently induced to enter into a severance agreement with the Company in 2001. 8. In essence, Mr. Dillard seeks, among other things, that the Company acquire the 141,000 shares of the Company's common stock owned by Mr. Dillard, and that the Company cancel his promissory notes payable to the Company in the amount of some $214,000.00. Schedule 8(F)-2 C. New Jersey Lease Litigation 1. 1099, L.L.C. vs. Texcel Services, inc. and Diversified Corporate Resources, inc. 2. Superior Court of New Jersey, Union County 3. Case no. UNN-L-3566-02 4. Claim is for unpaid office rental 5. Amount of claim: the total rental payable under Texcel lease which is estimated to be $80,000 based upon rental of $2,258.27 per month for five year lease commencing in September, 2000; no lease rental payments have been made by Texcel since early in 2002. 6.
