event prior to 10:00 a.m.  (Eastern  Standard Time) on the Maturity Date of this
Promissory Note (this "Note"), Datatec shall pay to Cisco the sum of $130,434.78

                        Attn: Senior Vice President, Corporate Affairs

       (c) All payments  under this Note shall be made  unconditionally  in full
without  deduction,  setoff,  counterclaim  or  other  defense.  Datatec  hereby
irrevocably  waives  presentment,  demand,  protest,  notice of dishonor and all
other notices (except for any such notice expressly  provided  herein),  and any
release  or  discharge  arising  from any  extension  of time or other  cause of
release or discharge other than actual payment in full hereof.

2.     Interest; Insolvency.
       --------------------

       (a) The indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall not bear interest prior
to May 1, 2002. In the event that the indebtedness  evidenced by this Note shall
not have been paid in full on or prior to the Maturity  Date,  commencing on the
day next following the Maturity Date,  interest on such indebtedness will accrue
at the rate of 6% per annum and will be  payable  monthly in arrears on the last
day of each calendar month following the Maturity Date. Any interest that is not

paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum.  All computations
of  interest  shall be made on the  basis  of a year of 365 days for the  actual
number of days  (including  the first and last day)  occurring in the period for
which such  interest  is  payable.  All  payments  made under this Note shall be
applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and next to unpaid principal.

       (b)  All  unpaid   amounts   owing  or  payable  under  this  Note  shall
automatically become immediately due and payable,  without presentment,  demand,
protest or any other  notice of any kind,  if, at any time prior to the Maturity
Date,  Datatec shall: (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver,
trustee,  liquidator  or  custodian  of  itself  or of all or  any  part  of its
property;  (ii) admit in writing its  inability or shall fail,  to pay its debts
generally as they mature; (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its
or any of its creditors; (iv) be dissolved or liquidated in full or in part; (v)
become  insolvent  (as  such  term  may be  defined  or  interpreted  under  any
applicable statute);  (vi) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking
liquidation,  reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts
under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect
or consent to any such relief or to the  appointment of or taking  possession of
its  property  by any  official  in an  involuntary  case  or  other  proceeding
commenced  against it; or (vii) take any action for the purpose of affecting any
of the foregoing.

3.     Miscellaneous.
       -------------

       (a) Costs and Expenses.  Datatec shall pay on demand all reasonable costs
and expenses of Cisco, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel,  in
connection with the enforcement or attempted enforcement of, and preservation of
any  rights  or  interests  under  this  Note,  including  in the  event  of any
out-of-court  workout,  refinancing  or  restructuring  transaction,  or in  any
bankruptcy case.

       (b)  Severance.  Whenever  possible,  each provision of the Note shall be
interpreted  in such manner as to be  effective  and valid under all  applicable
laws  and  regulations.  If,  however,  any  provision  of this  Note  shall  be
prohibited by or invalid  under any such law or regulation in any  jurisdiction,
it shall, as to such jurisdiction,  be deemed modified to conform to the minimum
requirements  of such law or regulation,  or, if for any reason it is not deemed
so  modified,  it shall be  ineffective  and invalid  only to the extent of such
prohibition  or invalidity  without  affecting the remaining  provisions of this
Note,  or  the  validity  or  effectiveness  of  such  provision  in  any  other
jurisdiction.

       (c) No Waiver.  Any term,  covenant,  agreement or condition of this Note
may be amended or waived only if such  amendment  or waiver is in writing and is
signed by Datatec  and Cisco.  No  failure or delay by Cisco in  exercising  any
right or remedy  under  this Note shall  operate  as a waiver  thereof or of any
other right or remedy nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
or remedy preclude any other further  exercise  thereof or of any other right or
remedy.  The  acceptance at any time by Cisco of any past-due  amount  hereunder
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require  prompt  payment when
due of any other amounts then or thereafter  due and payable.  Unless  otherwise
specified in such waiver or consent,  a waiver or consent given  hereunder shall
be  effective  only in the specific  instance  and for the specific  purpose for
which given.

                                       2

       (d) Successors and Assigns.  This Note shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of Datatec,  Cisco,  and their  respective  successors and permitted
assigns,  except that  Datatec  may not assign or transfer  any of its rights or
obligations  under this Note without the prior written consent of Cisco (and any
purported assignment without such consent shall be void).

       (e) This Note constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto
pertaining to the subject matter  hereof,  and any and all other written or oral
agreements relating to the subject matter hereof existing between parties hereto
are expressly canceled.

       (f) This Note shall be construed in  accordance  with and governed by the
laws of the State of Delaware, excluding conflict of laws principles.
