                                                   Dated Date: November 21, 2002
                                                Maturity Date: November 20, 2007
                                              Initial Principal Amount: $250,000
                                             Maturity Principal Amount: $388,303

      FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Mikron Infrared, Inc., a corporation duly organized
and validly existing under the laws of New Jersey (the "Company"), does hereby
promise to pay to the order of Dennis L. Stoneman (the "Payee"), and his
successors, heirs and assigns, on the date that the principal amount of this
Note shall become due (as set forth herein), in lawful currency of the United
States of America, the Appreciated Amount (as hereinafter defined). Unless the
principal amount of this Note is earlier prepaid or accelerated as hereinafter
provided, the "Appreciated Amount," as hereinafter defined. shall be due and
payable only on the Maturity Date stated above and in the Maturity Principal
Amount stated above. Interest shall not be payable on this Note except in the
case of the failure to pay the Appreciated Amount when due, in which case such
Appreciated Amount shall thereafter bear interest at the rate of 9% per annum
until paid in full.

      For purposes of this Note, the "Appreciated Amount" means, as of any date
of computation, the Initial Principal Amount stated above plus the principal
amount accreted on this Note from the Dated Date stated above to the date of
computation. This Note shall accrete in value at a yield of 9% per annum,
compounded on each December 31 and June 30, commencing December 31, 2002 (each a
"Compounding Date"). The Appreciated Amount on each Compounding Date prior to
the Maturity Date is set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference. The Appreciated Amount of this Note on a date other
than a Compounding Date is the Appreciated Amount on the immediately preceding
Compounding Date (or the Dated Date if the date of computation is prior to the
first Compounding Date), plus a portion of the difference between the
Appreciated Amount as of the immediately preceding Compounding Date and the
Appreciated Amount as of the immediately succeeding Compounding Date calculated
by multiplying such difference by a fraction the numerator of which is the
number of days that have elapsed since the immediately preceding Compounding
Date and denominator of which is the number of days from the immediately
preceding Compounding Date to the immediately succeeding Compounding Date.

      The Payee shall have the right to require the Company to prepay the amount
which shall be due and owing by Payee pursuant to the terms of this paragraph in
the event that a "Change in

<PAGE>

Control" (as hereinafter defined) occurs. The amount which shall be due and
payable by the Company in connection with any such prepayment shall equal the
Appreciated Amount as of the date selected by the Payee for prepayment (as
hereinafter provided). For purposes hereof, a "Change in Control" shall be
deemed to occur if: (i) any "person" or "group" (as such terms are defined in
the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) other than the Company or
any of its subsidiaries, or a trustee or any fiduciary holding securities under
an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, acting
singly or in concert with one or more other persons, acquires securities
representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then
outstanding securities; (ii) during any one year period, individuals who at the
beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors of the Company and
any new director whose election by the Board of Directors or nomination for
election by the Company's shareholders was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the
beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was
previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof;
(iii) the shareholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the
Company with any other corporation, other than (a) a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding
immediately prior thereto continuing to represent, in combination with the
ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee
benefit plan of the Company, at least 50% of the combined voting power of the
voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (b) a merger or consolidation
effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction)
in which no person acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding securities; (iv) the shareholders approve a plan of
complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition
by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets; or (v) Gerald D.
Posner shall cease to be a full time employee of the Company. The Payee may
exercise such right by delivery to the Company, within 20 days of his receipt of
notice that either a Change in Control or an Event of Default has occurred, of a
redemption notice in the form of Exhibit B hereto specifying the required date
of prepayment, which must be at least 10 days after the delivery of such notice
to the Company. The amount due and payable by the Company on such specified
prepayment date shall be the Appreciated Amount as of such date. The Company,
for itself, and on behalf of any successor to the Company by merger,
consolidation, operation of law or otherwise, covenants to give the Payee
written notice of the occurrence of (x) an Event of Default not later than the
date when the same shall occur, and (y) a Change in Control not later than the
date upon which the Company acquires actual notice of the occurrence thereof.

      The Company shall have the right to prepay this Note, in whole or in part,
in amounts of $50,000 or an integral multiple thereof at any time at its option,
at any time at its option, without premium or penalty. The amount due and
payable by the Company on the date when such prepayment shall occur shall be the
Appreciated Amount as of such date.

      The Payee shall have the right, by notice in writing to the Company, to
declare the entire principal amount of this Note to become immediately due and
payable (whereupon such amount shall become immediately due and payable) in the
event that any of the following defaults shall occur, and shall remain uncured
upon expiration of the period, if any, provided for the curing thereof (each, an
"Event of Default"):

      12. The imposition of any attachment or levy, or the issuance of any note
