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

The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder of this Note and the
conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the Holder, by the
acceptance of this Note, agrees:

 
1.      Event of Default.

 
(a)     For purposes of this Note, an "Event of Default" means:
 
(i)           the Company shall default in the payment of interest and/or
principal on this Note; or
 
(ii)           the Company shall fail to materially perform any covenant, term,
provision, condition, agreement or obligation of the Company under this Note
(other than for non-payment) and such failure shall continue uncured for a
period of ten (10) business days after notice from the Holder of such failure;
or
 
(iii)           the Company shall (1) become insolvent; (2) admit in writing its
inability to pay its debts generally as they mature; (3) make an assignment for
the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its dissolution; or (4)
apply for or consent to the appointment of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for
it or for a substantial part of its property or business; or
 
(iv)           a trustee, liquidator or receiver shall be appointed for the
Company or for a substantial part of its property or business without its
consent and shall not be discharged within thirty (30) days after such
appointment; or
 
(v)           any governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at
the insistence of any governmental agency shall assume custody or control of the
whole or any substantial portion of the properties or assets of the Company and
shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days thereafter; or
 
(vi)           the Company shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially
all of its assets; or
 
(vii)           bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings or other proceedings, or relief under any bankruptcy law or any law
for the relief of debt shall be instituted by or against the Company and, if
instituted against the Company shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days
after such institution, or the Company shall by any action or answer approve of,
consent to, or acquiesce in any such proceedings or admit to any material
allegations of, or default in answering a petition filed in any such proceeding.
 
(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the entire indebtedness with
accrued interest thereon due under this Note shall, at the option of the Holder,
be immediately due and payable without notice. Failure to exercise such option
shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same in the event of
any subsequent Event of Default.

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

2. Seniority. The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is hereby expressly
subordinated, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of the
Company's existing and future Senior Indebtedness. The Holder shall execute any
intercreditor agreement requested by the Company to give effect to the foregoing
seniority.
 
3. Prepayment. The Company may, subject to the terms set forth in the
Subordination Agreement, prepay this Note at any time, in whole or in part,
provided any such prepayment will be applied first to the payment of expenses
due under this Note, second to interest accrued on this Note and third, if the
amount of prepayment exceeds the amount of all such expenses and accrued
interest, to the payment of principal of this Note.
 
4. Conversion. The Holder may at his option elect to convert all or a portion of
the outstanding principal amount and unpaid accrued interest thereon as of such
date into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock"), in
accordance with this Section 4 at any time or from time to time (the "Company
Conversion Shares"). The Holder shall notify the Company in writing of the date
on which such conversion is to be effectuated (such date, the "Conversion
Date"). The number of shares of Company Conversion Shares (calculated to the
nearest whole share) to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such conversion
shall be determined by dividing the outstanding principal amount and unpaid
accrued interest thereon to be converted by ten dollars ($10.00), as adjusted
for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or
similar transaction (the "Conversion Price"). On the Conversion Date, the Holder
shall surrender this Note to the Company or its transfer agent, and the Holder
shall receive from the Company share certificates evidencing the Company
Conversion Shares in the name or names in which the Holder wishes such
certificate or certificates for the Company Conversion Shares to be issued and,
if the entire principal amount is not converted, a replacement note in the
amount of the unconverted principal amount.
 
5. Miscellaneous.
 
(a)     Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Note. Upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Note and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, delivery
of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this
Note, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Note, a new note
executed in the same manner as this Note, in the same principal amount as the
unpaid principal amount of this Note and dated the date to which interest shall
have been paid on this Note or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid,
dated the date of this Note.
 
(b) Payment. All payments under this Note shall be made in lawful tender of the
United States.
