$[[DOLLARAMT]]                                                  DECEMBER 9, 2002
                                                              NEW YORK, NEW YORK

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SystemOne Technologies Inc. (f/k/a Mansur
Industries Inc.), a Florida corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay to
[[Holder]] (the "Holder") or registered assigns, the principal amount of
[[WordDollars]] Dollars ($[[DollarAmt]]), and to pay interest (computed on the
basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months) on the unpaid principal amount
hereof at the rate of eight and one-fourth percent (8.25%) per annum on such
dates as set forth in Section 3 hereof. Principal hereunder shall be due and
payable in cash on the Maturity Date (as defined in Section 4 hereof), subject
to the terms and conditions of Sections 5 and 6 hereof.

         This Note is one of several 8.25% Subordinated Convertible Notes Due
December 31, 2005 (collectively, the "Notes") issued by the Company to several
holders (collectively, the "Holders") pursuant to that certain Exchange
Agreement dated December 9, 2002 (the "Agreement"), by and among the Company the
Holders and the Secured Note Holders (as defined therein). Unless otherwise
defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Agreement.

         This Note is subject to the following terms and conditions:

         1.       UNSECURED OBLIGATIONS; SUBORDINATION. This Note and the
amounts payable hereunder, including principal, premium, if any, and accrued
interest shall be unsecured obligations of the Company, and shall be subordinate
and junior to all indebtedness of the Company presently existing or hereinafter
incurred by the Company from time to time in accordance with Section 2(h)
hereof.
<PAGE>
         2.       COVENANTS. The Company covenants and agrees that, so long as
this Note is outstanding and unpaid:

                  (a)      PAYMENT OF NOTE. The Company will punctually pay or
cause to be paid the principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at
the dates and places and in the manner specified herein. Any sums required to be
withheld from any payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on this
Note by operation of law or pursuant to any order, judgment, execution, treaty,
rule or regulation may be withheld by the Company and paid over in accordance
therewith. In the event any restriction is placed upon payment of principal,
premium, if any, or interest by virtue of a currency or monetary control law,
rule or regulation of the United States Federal Government, as set forth in a
written notice delivered to the Holder within thirty (30) days after the
imposition of such a restriction, such payments shall be deposited to the
account of the payee in a bank, trust company or other financial institution, as
directed by the payee. Such payment or deposit will be deemed payment to the
Holder.

         Nothing in this Note or in any other agreement between the Holder and
the Company shall require the Company to pay, or the Holder to accept, interest
in an amount which would subject the Holder to any penalty or forfeiture under
applicable law. In the event that the payment of any charges, fees or other sums
due under this Note or provided for in any other agreement between the Company
and the Holder are or could be held to be in the nature of interest and would
subject the Holder to any penalty or forfeiture under applicable law, then ipso
facto the obligations of the Company to make such payment to the Holder shall be
reduced to the highest rate authorized under applicable law and, in the event
that the Holder shall have ever received, collected, accepted or applied as
interest any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be
charged by applicable law, such amount which would be excess interest under
applicable law shall be applied first to the reduction of principal then
outstanding, and, second, if such principal amount is paid in full, any
remaining excess shall forthwith be returned to the Company.

                  (b)      MAINTENANCE OF CORPORATE EXISTENCE; MERGER AND
CONSOLIDATION. The Company will at all times cause to be done all things
necessary or appropriate to preserve and keep in full force and effect its
corporate existence and the corporate existence of any significant subsidiary
(as defined in Rule 405 of the Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act
("Significant Subsidiary")) and it shall not consolidate with or merge into any
other corporation or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any
person unless (i) the corporation formed by such consolidation or into which the
Company is merged or to which all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company are transferred is a corporation that expressly assumes all of the
obligations of the Company under this Note and (ii) after giving effect to such
transaction, no Event of Default, as defined in Section 8(a) below, and no event
which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default,
shall have occurred and be continuing.

                  (c)      MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES. The Company will
reasonably maintain in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear
and tear excepted, its properties and other assets, and those of any Significant
Subsidiary, and from time to time make all necessary or desirable repairs,
renewals and replacements thereto.

                                       2
<PAGE>
                  (d)      PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company will, and will cause
any Significant Subsidiary to, pay or discharge or cause to be paid, set aside
for payment or discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, all taxes,
assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, or upon their respective income,
profits or property; provided, that neither the Company nor any Significant
Subsidiary shall be required to pay or discharge, or cause to be paid or
discharged, any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount or validity
is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

                  (e)      COMPLIANCE WITH STATUTES. The Company will, and will
cause any Significant Subsidiary to, comply in all material respects with all
applicable statutes and regulations of the United States of America and of any
state or municipality, and of any agency thereof, in respect of the conduct of
business and the ownership of property by the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 1(e) shall require
the Company or a Significant Subsidiary to comply with any such statute or
regulations so long as its legality or applicability shall be contested in good
faith.

                  (f)      RESTRICTIONS ON DIVIDENDS, REDEMPTIONS, ETC. The
Company will not, and will cause its subsidiaries (other than wholly-owned
subsidiaries) not to, (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other
distribution of the Company, except dividends or distributions payable in equity
securities of the Company, or (ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or
retire for value any equity securities of the Company, except (A) equity
securities acquired upon conversion or exchange thereof into other equity
securities of the Company and (B) any equity security issued to employees,
directors of others performing services in accordance with agreements providing
for such repurchase at original cost upon termination of employment, membership
on the Board of Directors or other affiliation with the Company.

                  (g)      TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. Neither the Company nor
any Significant Subsidiary will itself, and will not permit any of their
respective officers or directors, or holder of 5% or more of the Company's
common stock ("Common Stock"), to engage in any transaction of any kind or
nature with any affiliate of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, other
than transactions with any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary or pursuant to the terms of any agreement existing as of
the date hereof between the Company or any Significant Subsidiary and any
affiliate of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, unless such transaction,
or in the case of a course of related or similar transactions or continuing
transactions, such course of transactions or continuing transactions is or are
approved by independent directors of the Company or is or are upon terms which
are fair to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary and which are reasonably
similar to, or more beneficial to the Company or any Significant Subsidiary than
the terms deemed likely to be obtained in similar transactions with unrelated
persons under the same circumstances.

                  (h)      LIMITATION OF INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS. The Company
will not, and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to, at any time, incur,
create, assume or guarantee, or otherwise become or be liable in any manner with
respect to any indebtedness (other than indebtedness incurred to refinance any
indebtedness outstanding on the date hereof or otherwise permitted hereunder)
(the "Incurrence") unless, after giving pro forma effect of the Incurrence
thereof, the ratio of Total Debt (as defined below) to Consolidated EBITDA (as
defined below)

                                       3
<PAGE>
for any period of twelve months then most recently ended shall be less than
6.0:1.0; provided, however, the Company may incur up to $10,000,000 of Total
Debt (excluding the New Junior Notes) at any time. "Total Debt" shall mean the
principal amount of all indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries,
determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principals, (a) in respect of money borrowed or evidenced by a
promissory note, debenture or like written obligation to pay money (including
the New Junior Notes); (b) in respect of any capital lease obligation; (c)
obligations incurred or assumed as part of the deferred purchase price of any
assets acquired by the Company or its subsidiaries; (d) all obligations or
liabilities of others secured by a lien on any asset owned by the Company or any
of its subsidiaries, irrespective of whether such obligation or liability is
assumed, to the extent of the lesser of such obligation or liability or the fair
market value of such asset; and (e) any guarantees by the Company or its
subsidiaries of any indebtedness of another person or entities, provided,
however, that in determining the indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary,
all liabilities of which the Company or any subsidiary is jointly and severally
liable with one or more other persons or entities (including, without
limitation, all liabilities of any partnership or joint venture of which the
Company is a general partner or co-venturer) shall be included at the full
amount thereof without regard to any right the Company or subsidiary may have
against any such other person or entity for contribution or indemnity.

                  The term "Consolidated EBITDA" shall mean for any period for
which the amount thereof is to be determined, the Consolidated Net Income (as
defined below) for such period plus the aggregate amounts deducted in
determining such Consolidated Net Income in respect of (i) Interest Expense (as
defined below) for such period, (ii) income and other taxes measured by income
or profits for such period, and (iii) Depreciation and Amortization Expense (as
defined below) for such period.

                  The term "Consolidated Net Income" shall mean, for any period,
the consolidated net income (or loss) of the Company and its subsidiaries for
such period determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis, after eliminating all offsetting
debits and credits between the Company and its subsidiaries, operating expenses,
provisions for all taxes and reserves (including reserves for deferred income
taxes) and other items to be eliminated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, but, in any event, excluding:

                  (i)      any net gains or net losses (less all fees and
                  expenses related thereto) on the sale or other disposition of
                  investments or fixed or capital assets, and any taxes on such
                  excluded gains and any tax deductions or credits on account of
                  any such excluded losses;

                  (ii)     all items properly classified as extraordinary in
                  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

                  (iii)    net earnings and losses of any subsidiary accrued
                  prior to the date it became a subsidiary;

                  (iv)     net earnings and losses of any person or entity
                  (other than a subsidiary), substantially all the assets of
                  which have been acquired by the Company or any

                                       4
<PAGE>
                  subsidiary in any manner, realized by such other person or
                  entity prior to the date of such acquisition, except to the
                  extent that any such earnings have been received by the
                  Company or such subsidiary in the form of cash dividends or
                  other similar cash distributions;

                  (v)      net earnings and losses of any person or entity
                  (other than a subsidiary) which shall have been merged into or
                  consolidated with the Company or any subsidiary prior to the
                  date of such merger or consolidation;

                  (vi)     any portion of the net earnings of any subsidiary
                  which for any reason is unavailable for payment of dividends
                  to the Company or any subsidiary;

                  (vii)    earnings or losses resulting from any reappraisal,
                  revaluation, write-up or write-down of assets during such
                  period;

                  (viii)   any income resulting from any excess of the equity in
                  any person or entity at the date of acquisition thereof over
                  the amount invested in such person or entity;

                  (ix)     any net gain arising from the acquisition of any
                  capital stock or other securities of the Company or any
                  subsidiary;

                  (x)      any deferred credit or amortization thereof from the
                  acquisition of any properties or assets of any person or
                  entity; and

                  (xi)     any net gain from the collection of the proceeds of
                  life insurance policies.

                  The term "Depreciation and Amortization Expense" shall mean,
for any period, without duplication, the total expense of the Company and its
subsidiaries during such period for depreciation, amortization of intangible
assets and other non-cash charges, all calculated in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                  The term "Interest Expense" shall mean, for any period,
without duplication, the aggregate of all interest paid or accrued, including,
without limitation, amortization of debt issuance costs, of the Company and its
subsidiaries as determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

         3.       INTEREST.

                  Interest shall be paid in cash semi-annually on the unpaid
principal amount hereof at the rate of eight and one-quarter percent (8.25%) per
annum on each June 30 and December 31, commencing on December 31, 2002 (each an
"Interest Payment Date"), and concluding on the Maturity Date; provided,
however, that the accrued interest that would otherwise be due on each Interest
Payment Date prior to the Maturity Date shall be added to the principal amount
of this Note then outstanding and thereafter be principal of this Note for all
purposes.

         4.       MATURITY

                                       5
<PAGE>
                  If this Note is not converted into Common Stock in accordance
with Section 5 hereof or redeemed in accordance with Section 6 hereof, the
principal amount of this Note as determined in accordance with Section 2 hereof,
together with accrued but unpaid interest, shall be due and payable in cash on
December 31, 2005 (the "Maturity Date").

         5.       CONVERSION

                  All, but not less than all, of the principal amount of this
Note as determined in accordance with Section 3 of this Note and accrued
interest thereon may be converted into shares of Common Stock (the "Note
Shares") at the option of the Holder at any time on or prior to the Maturity
Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5 or, if
earlier, prior to the date fixed for redemption pursuant to Section 6 hereof.
Upon conversion into Note Shares pursuant to this paragraph, the principal
amount of this Note and accrued interest thereon, as determined in accordance
with Section 3, shall be discharged.

                  From and after the date hereof, if the closing bid price of
the Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq (or the closing sale price if the Common
Stock is then traded on any principal national exchange or Nasdaq National
Market) exceeds 175% of the Conversion Price (as defined below) for a period of
twenty (20) consecutive trading days, including the twenty (20) trading days
prior to the date hereof (the "Calculation Period") an early conversion event
("Early Conversion Event") shall have occurred. Upon the first Early Conversion
Event, if any, in each calendar quarter, the principal amount of the Notes (as
determined in accordance with Section 3 hereof) shall automatically and without
any action by the Holder or the Company be converted into the Company's Common
Stock, on a pro rata basis, in an amount determined in accordance with the
following formula:

                                CN = V X 22 X CP

where CN is the principal amount of the Notes to be converted; V is the average
daily reported volume of trading in the Company's Common Stock on all national
securities exchanges and/or reported through the automated quotation system of a
registered national securities association during the Calculation Period; and CP
is the Conversion Price (as hereinafter defined).

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the outstanding
principal of the Notes shall be converted as a result of an Early Conversion
Event pursuant to this Section 5 unless the resale of the Note Shares is
eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act") or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Act. Accrued interest on the principal amount converted upon the occurrence of
an Early Conversion Event shall be paid on the next Interest Payment Date in
accordance with Section 3 hereof.

                  (a)      CONVERSION PRICE. The "Conversion Price" shall equal
seventeen dollars ($17.00) (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances).
The number of Note Shares into which this Note may be converted shall be
determined by dividing the aggregate amount of outstanding principal on this
Note and accrued interest thereon, as determined in accordance with Section 3,
to be converted on the Conversion Date (as defined below) by the then applicable
Conversion Price.

                                       6
<PAGE>
                  (b)      METHOD OF CONVERSION. Before the Holder shall be
entitled to receive Note Shares upon the conversion of this Note, the Holder
shall surrender this Note and deliver a Notice of Conversion (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A) in the event of conversion at the option of the
Holder to the office of the Company or its designated agent. The Notice of
Conversion shall state therein the amount(s) in which the certificate(s) for
Note Shares are to be issued. Upon the conversion of this Note, in whole or in
part, in connection with an Early Conversion Event the Company shall send to the
Holder of this Note a Notice of Early Conversion (in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit B) stating the amount of principal of the Note to be converted and the
number of shares of Common Stock into which such principal shall be converted.
The time of conversion (the "Conversion Date") shall be the close of business on
the first business day following the date on which the Company receives the
Notice of Conversion in the event of conversion at the option of the Holder or
the last date of a Calculation Period in the event of conversion upon an Early
Conversion Event, as the case may be. Interest on the principal amount of Notes
converted ceases to accrue on and after the Conversion Date of such principal
amount.

                  (c)      ISSUANCE OF NOTE SHARES. The Company shall, as soon
as practicable after surrender of this Note and receipt of the Notice of
Conversion and receipt of this Note, but in no event more than three (3)
business days thereafter, issue and deliver to the Holder, a certificate(s) for
the number of Note Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled as aforesaid.

                  (d)      NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Note Shares shall
be issuable upon conversion of this Note. If the conversion of this Note and any
other Note(s) held by the Holder, in the aggregate would result in the issuance
of a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be rounded up
to the nearest whole share and issued to the Holder.

                  (e)      ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE; MERGER.

                  (i)      If the Company at any time or from time to time while
                  this Note is issued and outstanding shall declare or pay,
                  without consideration, any dividend on the Common Stock
                  payable in Common Stock, or shall effect a subdivision of the
                  outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
                  shares of Common Stock (by stock split, reclassification or
                  otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Stock or in
                  any right to acquire Common Stock), or if the outstanding
                  shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by
                  reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares
                  of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect
                  immediately before such event shall, concurrently with the
                  effectiveness of such event, be proportionately decreased or
                  increased, as appropriate. If the Company shall declare or
                  pay, without consideration, any dividend on the Common Stock
                  payable in any right to acquire Common Stock for no
                  consideration, then the Company shall be deemed to have made a
                  dividend payable in Common Stock in an amount of shares equal
                  to the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of such
                  rights to acquire Common Stock.

                  (ii)     If the Common Stock shall be changed into the same or
                  a different number of shares of any other class or classes of
                  stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or
                  otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares

                                       7
<PAGE>
                  provided for in Section 5(e)(i)), the Conversion Price then in
                  effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such
                  reorganization or reclassification, be proportionately
                  adjusted so that the Note Shares shall be convertible into, in
                  lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder
                  would otherwise have been entitled to receive, a number of
                  shares of such other class or classes of stock equivalent to
                  the number of Note Shares that would have been subject to
                  receipt by the Holder upon payment of Note Shares on this Note
                  immediately before that change.

                  (iii)    In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company
                  with any other corporation, limited liability company or any
                  other entity (each such transaction, a "Merger"), the entity
                  formed by the Merger shall succeed to the covenants,
                  stipulations, promises and the agreements contained in this
                  Note. In the event of a Merger, the Company shall make
                  appropriate provisions so that the Holder shall have the right
                  thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of
                  securities receivable upon such Merger by a Holder of the
                  number of securities into which this Note could have been
                  converted immediately prior to a Merger. The above provisions
                  shall similarly apply to successive Mergers.

                  (iv)     Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or
                  readjustment of any Conversion Price pursuant to this Section
                  5(e), the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such
                  adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof
                  and prepare and furnish to the Holder a notice setting forth
                  such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the
                  facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

                  (f)      RESERVATION OF STOCK. The Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes into Note
Shares, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the Notes; and if at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient
to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then, the Company will take such
corporate action as in the opinion of its counsel may be necessary to increase
its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as
shall be sufficient for such purpose, including without limitation, engaging in
best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder approval.

                  (g)      ISSUE TAXES. The Company shall pay any and all issue
and other taxes that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of Note
Shares; provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer
taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Holder in connection with any
such conversion.

                  (a)      The principal amount of this Note plus any accrued

                  (a)      The Company shall keep or cause to be kept a note
register (the "Note Register") for the Notes in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the

designated agent (either, the "Registrar").

                  (c)      All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or
exchange of this Note shall be valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the

of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar, duly

registration of transfer or exchange of Notes.

                  (f)      Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer
of any Note, the Company may treat the person in whose name any Note is
registered (as of the day of determination) as the Holder for the purpose of
receiving payments of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other
purposes, and neither the Company nor any agent of the Company shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

         8.       DEFAULT

                  (a)      DEFAULT. For purposes of this Section 8, the term
"Significant Subsidiary" shall have the same meaning as defined in Rule 405 of
the Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act, except that the applicable
percentage expressed in each of the conditions under such Rule 405 shall be 25%
instead of 10%. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute an event of default (each an "Event of Default") hereunder:

                  (i)      if the Company fails to make payment of any sum
                  payable with respect to the Note, which failure is not cured
                  within ten (10) business days of the stated due date of such
                  payment, or if the Company violates any of the agreements,

                                       9
<PAGE>
                  promises, covenants, terms and conditions of any of, the Notes
                  and such violation remains uncured for ten (10) business days
                  after the earlier of (i) the date of the applicable Notice of
                  Event of Default (as defined below) or (ii) the date that a
                  Responsible Officer (as defined below) acquires knowledge of
                  any such violation.

                  (ii)     if any warranty, representation or statement of fact
                  made herein by the Company is false or misleading in any
                  material respect when made;

                  (iii)    if the Company or any Significant Subsidiary fails to
                  maintain its corporate existence and such failure remains
                  uncured for ten (10) business days after earlier of (i) the
                  date of the applicable Notice of Event of Default (as defined
                  below) or (ii) the date that a Responsible Officer (as defined
                  below) acquires knowledge of any such failure;

                  (iv)     if the Company or any Significant Subsidiary becomes
                  insolvent (however defined or evidenced) or makes an
                  assignment for the benefit of creditors;

                  (v)      if there shall be filed by or against the Company or
                  any Significant Subsidiary any petition for any relief under
                  the bankruptcy laws of the United States now or hereafter in
                  effect or any proceeding shall be commenced with respect to
                  the Company or any Significant Subsidiary under any
                  insolvency, readjustment of debt, reorganization, dissolution,
                  liquidation or similar law or statute of any jurisdiction now
                  or hereafter in effect (whether at law or in equity), provided
                  that in the case of any involuntary filing or the commencement
                  of any involuntary proceeding against the Company or any
                  Significant Subsidiary such proceeding or petition shall have
                  continued undismissed and unvacated for at least 60 days;

                  (vi)     if any proceeding, procedure or remedy supplementary
                  to or in enforcement of a final non-appealable judgment (other
                  than any judgment that would not have a Material Adverse
                  Effect on the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, taken as
                  a whole) shall be commenced against, or with respect to any
                  material property of, the Company or any Significant
                  Subsidiary; or

                  (vii)    if any petition or application to any court or
                  tribunal, at law or in equity, shall be filed by or against
                  the Company or any Significant Subsidiary for the appointment
                  of any receiver or trustee for the Company or any Significant
                  Subsidiary or any material part of the property of the Company
                  or any Significant Subsidiary, provided that in the case of
                  any involuntary filing against the Company or any Significant
                  Subsidiary, such proceeding or appointment shall have
                  continued undismissed and unvacated for at least 60 days.

                  (b)      NOTICE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. Upon the Chairman, the
Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer (or principal accounting
officer), or any President (each a "Responsible Officer") of the Company
acquiring knowledge of the existence of an Event of Default, the Company shall
send to the Holder a written notice ("Notice of Event of Default")

                                       10
<PAGE>
specifying the nature and period of existence of any Event of Default and what
action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

                  (c)      REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall
occur for any reason, then and in any such event, in addition to all rights and
remedies of the Holder under applicable law or otherwise, all such rights and
remedies being cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable alternatively,
successively and concurrently, the Holder may, at its option, declare any or all
amounts owing under this Note, to be due and payable, whereupon the then unpaid
balance hereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall
forthwith become due and payable, together with interest accruing thereafter at
the then applicable interest rate stated above until the indebtedness evidenced
by this Note is paid in full, plus the costs and expenses of collection hereof,
including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and legal expenses.

                  (d)      THE COMPANY'S WAIVERS. The Company (i) waives
diligence, demand, presentment, protest and notice of any kind, (ii) agrees that
it will not be necessary for the Holder to first institute suit in order to
enforce payment of this Note and (iii) consents to any one or more extensions or
postponements of time of payment, release, surrender or forbearance or other
indulgence, without notice or consent. The pleading of any statute of
limitations as a defense to any demand against the Company is hereby expressly
waived by the Company.

                  (e)      CERTAIN OBLIGORS. The Holder may proceed against the
Company and any guarantors or endorsees hereof in such order and manner as the
Holder may choose.

                  (a)      RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER OF THIS NOTE. This Note shall
not entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company,
including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends and other
distributions, or to receive any notice of, or to attend, meetings of
shareholders or any other proceedings of the Company. This Section 9(a) shall
not affect the rights of the Holder in its capacity as a shareholder of the
Company upon conversion of this Note and issuance to the Holder of Note Shares
pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

                  (b)      LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED NOTE. If this
Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall execute
and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a
mutilated Note, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen, or
destroyed Note, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note so mutilated,
lost, stolen, or destroyed but only upon receipt of evidence (which may consist
of a signed affidavit of the Holder), of such loss, theft, or destruction of
such Note, and of the ownership thereof, and indemnity, if requested, all
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

         10.      SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE

                  (a)      RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The Holder and the Company
understand that each of (i) the Holder's right to convert this Note and (ii) the
ability of the Company to issue the Note Shares are subject to full compliance
with the provisions of all applicable securities laws and the availability
thereunder of an exemption from registration, and that the certificates
evidencing the Note Shares, shall bear a legend substantially to the effect of

                                       11
<PAGE>
                  (b)      COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The Holder agrees to comply
with all applicable laws, rules and regulations of all federal and state
securities regulators, including but not limited to, the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., and applicable
state securities regulators with respect to disclosure, filings and any other
requirements resulting in any way from the issuance or conversion of this Note.

         11.      OTHER MATTERS

                  (a)      BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. The provisions of this
Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
the successors and assigns of the Company.

                  (b)      FURTHER ACTIONS. At any time and from time to time,
the Company and the Holder agree, without further consideration, to take such

understanding of the Company and the Holder with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all existing agreements between them concerning such
subject matter. This Note may be amended, modified, superseded, canceled,
renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written
instrument signed by the Company and Holders of at least fifty-one percent (51%)
in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding; provided, however,
that the consent of the Holder shall be required to modify the terms of this
Note affecting the payment of principal amount of, or interest on, such Holder's
Note or the term of such Holder's Note. Any waiver by the Company or the Holder
of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed
to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any
other provision of this Note. The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist
upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall
not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to
insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note. No
delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or hereof, nor shall any waiver on
the part of any party of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise hereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege hereunder. Any waiver must be in writing. The rights and remedies
provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
which any party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

                  (d)      NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required
or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by
certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered against receipt if to (i)

applicable usury laws.
