to the Holder hereof on the Demand after the Maturity Date. The Company shall
not prematurely pay or prepay any outstanding principal balance to the Holder.

(b) Default Interest. Any amount of principal on this Note which is not paid
when due shall bear ten percent (10%) interest  per annum from the date thereof
until the same is paid ("Default Interest") and the Holder, at the Holder's sole
discretion, may include any accrued but unpaid Default Interest in the

time designate by written notice to the Company in accordance with the
provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of
this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), the
same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day

principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of
Common Stock in accordance with Paragraph 2(d), at the Conversion Rate (as
defined below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common
Stock upon any conversion; if such issuance would result in the issuance of a
fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a

(c) Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of a Conversion Amount of this Note pursuant to Paragraph 2(b) shall

Stock on any date set forth in the Conversion Notice by the Holder (the
"Conversion Date"), the Holder hereof shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or
otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time on such
date, a copy of a fully executed notice of conversion in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit 2.(e)(1) (the "Conversion Notice") to the Company; and (B)
surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable
following the date of the Conversion Notice original of the Note being
converted.

(2) Company's Response. Upon receipt by the Company of a copy of a Conversion
Notice, the Company shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than
three (3) Business Days after receipt of such Conversion Notice, send, via
facsimile and overnight courier, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion
Notice (the "Conversion Confirmation") to such Holder indicating that the

Within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Confirmation, the

name of the Holder, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

full principal amount of this Note is submitted for conversion, then the Company
shall within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Note and at its own
expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note for the outstanding
principal amount not so converted; provided that such new Note shall be
substantially in the same form as this Note.

 (3) Record Holder. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all
purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the
Conversion Date.

(e) Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable with
respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon the conversion of
Notes.

3. Other Rights of Holders.
(a) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale
of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person or other
transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock are
entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred
to herein as "Organic Change." Prior to the consummation of any (i) Organic
Change or (ii) other Organic Change following which the Company is not a
surviving entity, the Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets
or the successor resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the
"Acquiring Entity") a written agreement (in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Holder) to deliver to Holder in exchange for this Note, a
security of the Acquiring Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially
similar in form and substance to this Note, and reasonably satisfactory to the
Holder.  Prior to the consummation of any other Organic Change, the Company
shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Holders of a majority of the Conversion Amount of the Notes then
outstanding) to ensure that each of the Holders will thereafter have the right
to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the
shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon
the conversion of such Holder's Note, such shares of stock, securities or assets
that would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change with respect to or
in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock which would have been
acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such Holder's Note as of the
date of such Organic Change (without taking into account any limitations or
restrictions on the convertibility of the Note).
 
(b). Security Interest.    None.

4. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times, so long as any
principal amount of the Notes is outstanding, reserve and keep available out of
its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting
the conversion of the Notes, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall at
all times be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the principal amount
of the Notes then outstanding; provided that the number of shares of Common
Stock so reserved shall at no time be less than one hundred twenty percent
(125%) of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the principal amount of
the Notes are at any time convertible. The initial number of shares of Common
Stock reserved for conversions of the Notes and each increase in the number of
shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders of the Notes
based on the principal amount of the Notes held by each Holder at the time of
issuance of the Notes or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case
may be. In the event a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such
Holder's Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the
number of reserved shares of Common Stock reserved for such transferor. Any
shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold
any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining Holders, pro rata based on the
principal amount of the Notes then held by such Holders.

5. Voting Rights. Holders shall have no voting rights, except as required by
law.

this Note of less than all of the Conversion Amount represented by this Note,
the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder, upon
tender by the Holder of the Note converted or redeemed, a new note of like tenor
representing the remaining principal amount of this Note which has not been so
converted or redeemed and which is in substantially the same form as this Note.

of the principal amount of this Note when due; (iii) failure by the Company for

shall execute and deliver a new Note of like tenor and date and in substantially
the same form as this Note; provided, however, the Company shall not be
obligated to re-issue a Note if the Holder contemporaneously requests the
Company to convert such remaining principal amount into Common Stock.

10. Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs. If: (i) this Note is
placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected
or enforced through any legal proceeding; or (ii) an attorney is retained to
represent the Holder of this Note in any bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership or other proceedings affecting creditors' rights and involving a
claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay to the Holder all reasonable
attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, in
addition to all other amounts due hereunder.

this Note has been paid in full, this Note shall automatically be deemed
canceled, shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation and shall not be
reissued.

demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the
delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note and the
