Lancer, Lancer Capital Corporation, and LIS jointly and severally guaranty the Credit Facility.

Pursuant to the Credit Facility, Lancer is required to maintain the following ratios:

• a ratio of the current consolidated assets to the current consolidated liabilities of not less than 1.25 to 1.0; and

• a ratio of Total Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of not more than 3.0 to 1.0.

Additionally, Borrower is required to maintain a consolidated net worth of not less than $47.0 million plus 75% of cumulative net income after June 30, 2004 (with no reduction for any net loss reported for any quarter).

The Company must repay borrowings under the Credit Agreement by December 30, 2007 unless payment is accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default, which includes customary defaults such as payment default, covenant default, bankruptcy type defaults, liens, judgments, and the occurrence of certain other events which could impair or negatively impact Borrower from performing its obligations under the Credit Facility. Upon certain events, such as a final money judgment against Borrower (which is not paid or perfected within sixty days) or a challenge to Lender’s first lien and security interest, Lender may reasonably determine whether the event will impair or impact the ability of Borrower to perform under the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility replaces the Borrower’s prior credit facility as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated June 30, 2004, by and among, Borrower, Lancer De Mexico, S.A de C.V., Lancer, Lancer Capital Corporation, LIS, Advanced Beverage Solutions, LLC, Servicios Lancermex, S.A. de C.V., and the Frost National Bank, Harris Trust and Savings Bank and Whitney National Bank (the “Former Facility”).
