re terms of the loan, the comment about pending deals in the 10Q said
. The Company is currently in the
process of seeking to raise funds through debt and equity financing and if this
process is successful, management believes that it will provide adequate
liquidity to meet the Company's planned capital and operating requirements
through March 31, 1999. Thereafter, the Company's operations will need to be
funded either with funds generated through operations or with additional debt or
equity financing.

This makes it pretty clear that they expected to raise funds in the near future not only by selling debt, but also by selling equity. Either the loan that they just announced has an equity component that they did not disclose in the news release (my guess) or there will be another deal coming up very soon that will be equity.

Long term they have to do equity deals to stay afloat. Cashflow to make payments and assets to secure loans simply aren't there in the latest financial statements.
