1. Amount Borrowed. For Value Received, the undersigned, IP Solutions, Inc., a
Colorado corporation (hereinafter, the “Borrower”), promises to pay IPZI
Acquisition Funding, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the “Note
Holder”), the principal sum of Eight Hundred Thousand and No/100ths Dollars
($800,000.00), with interest accruing thereon from August 13, 2008 at the annual
rate of twelve percent (12%), compounded annually. Principal and interest shall
be payable at the address of Note Holder indicated herein below or such other
place as the Note Holder may designate upon notice provided in advance to
Borrower in writing. The principal amount shall be amortized and paid monthly
over a five (5) year period as follows:

(a) Principal and interest shall be payable in monthly installments commencing
on September 12, 2008 in the amount of Seventeen Thousand Seven Hundred
Ninety-Five and 56/100ths Dollars ($17,795.56) and continuing thereafter on the
last day of each month; and

(b) If not sooner paid, the entire principal amount outstanding and accrued
interest thereon shall be due and payable on August 12, 2013.

2. Dues Dates and Late Charges. Borrower shall pay to the Note Holder a late
charge of five (5%) percent of any monthly payment not received by the Note
Holder within ten (10) days after the payment is due.

3. Application of Payments. Payments received for application to this Note shall
be applied first to the payment of late charges, if any, second, to accrued but
unpaid interest, and then applied to reduction of the principal balance hereof.

4. Prepayment Penalty. Prior to August 12, 2009, there shall be a prepayment
penalty of Ninety-Six Thousand and 00/100ths Dollars ($96,000.00) (less any
interest paid prior to such prepayment). Prepayment may be made by Borrower any
time and from time to time after August 12, 2009 without penalty. Any prepayment
made hereunder is to be applied first to accrued unpaid interest, if any, and
the remainder of any prepayment to be applied to principal. No partial
prepayment shall postpone the due date of any subsequent payment.

5. Default and Right To Cure. Note Holder shall be entitled to declare a default
in the event of any or all of the following:

(a) If any payment required by this Note is not paid when due

(b) If Borrower fails to issue 400,000 warrants to the Members of Lender at a
strike price of $0.45 per warrant; or

(c) Borrower borrows any other monies or offers security in Borrower or
Borrower’s Collateral prior to the Note being paid in full.

In the event that Borrower defaults and Note Holder desires to declare a
default, the Note Holder shall first give written notice to Borrower of Note
Holder’s intent to declare the Note to be in default. Upon receiving such
notice, Borrower shall then have ten (10) days in which to cure the default by,
as applicable, (i) paying all due but unpaid amounts for monthly installments,
late charges and accrued but unpaid interest, (ii) issuing the warrants, or
(iii) curing the restriction against borrowing any monies or offering any

security in such collateral. If Borrower fails to timely cure the default, at
the option of the Note Holder, the entire remaining principal amount outstanding
as well as accrued but unpaid late charges and interest may then be declared due
and payable by the Note Holder (“Acceleration”); and the indebtedness shall from
then bear interest at the default rate of twenty-one percent (21%) per annum,
compounded annually, until fully paid and satisfied.

6. Assignable. This Note is not assignable by Borrower. This Note shall be
assignable by Note Holder upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice,
without the prior written consent of the Borrower. Any partial prepayment shall
be applied first against any outstanding late charges or collection costs, then
against interest, and then to the principal amount outstanding and shall not
postpone the due date of any subsequent payments.

7. Waivers. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, Borrower hereby
waives presentment for payment, protest and demand, notice of protest, demand
and dishonor and notice of non-payment of this Note.
