         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Kestrel Equity Corporation, an Arizona corporation
("Maker"), promises to pay to John Honour, an individual ("Holder"), at the
offices of the Maker, the principal sum of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars
($400,000), plus interest thereon from the date hereof until paid on the terms
set forth below; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event this Note is converted
into Common Stock (as defined herein) as provided herein, any obligation of
Maker with respect to payment of such amount, other than any interest accrued
but unpaid thereon, shall be terminated. Reference is made to that certain Stock
Purchase Agreement made and effective as of September 25, 1999 among Maker and
Holder (the "Agreement"), which is incorporated herein by reference; unless
otherwise defined herein, terms with initial letters capitalized shall have
their respective meanings as assigned in the Agreement; and, in the event of any
inconsistencies between this Note and the terms of the Agreement, the terms of
the Agreement shall govern.

         1. MATURITY DATE. The unpaid principal balance of this Note and all
accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable on September 25, 2001,
unless this Note is earlier converted or paid in accordance with the terms
hereof.

         2. INTEREST. The unpaid principal balance outstanding under this Note
shall bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.

         3. PAYMENTS. Payments of interest only shall be payable on the last day
of each month, commencing October 31, 1999.

         4. DEFAULT; ACCELERATION. The entire sum of unpaid principal and any
accrued but unpaid interest hereunder shall become immediately due and payable
without further notice, demand or presentment, at Holder's option, upon the
occurrence at any time of any of the following events of default:

                  4.1 Default in the payment of any installment of principal or
interest when due should such default not be cured within thirty (30) days after
written notice thereof is delivered to Maker at its last known address; or

                  4.2 An assignment by Maker of substantially all of its assets
for the benefit of creditors; or

                  4.3 The adjudication of Maker as a bankrupt (in involuntary or
voluntary proceedings); or

                  4.4 The filing by Maker of a petition under the Federal
Bankruptcy Act or any comparable state law for a reorganization, arrangement or
other judicial protection upon insolvency.

         The foregoing option to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby
may be exercised by Holder at any time after the occurrence of any of the events
of default. The failure to exercise said option upon the occurrence of one or
more of such events of default shall not prevent its exercise upon the
reoccurrence of such an event of default or upon the occurrence of any other
event of default.

         5. CONVERSION.

                  5.1 OPTIONAL CONVERSION. All or any portion of the unpaid
principal balance outstanding under this Note may be converted into fully paid
and non-assessable shares of Maker's common stock, $.001 par value per share
(the "Common Stock") at any time during the term of this Note at the option of
Holder. The number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note is to be
converted shall be determined by dividing said unpaid principal balance by Two
Dollars ($2.00) (the "Conversion Price"), subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 7 below, with any accrued but unpaid interest paid in cash at the time
of conversion.

                  5.2 NOTICE OF CONVERSION. If Holder desires to convert the
Note, Holder shall provide written notice to Maker at the principal offices of
Maker, notifying Maker of the requested conversion to be effected. Within ten
(10) days of receipt of such notice, Maker shall respond to Holder's request in
writing, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
conversion, the amount of accrued interest to be paid in cash and the date on
which such conversion will occur and calling upon such Holder to surrender to
Maker, in the manner and at the place designated, this Note. Such response by
Maker shall be delivered to Holder at the address last shown on the records of
Maker for Holder or given by Holder to Maker for the purpose of notice.

                  5.3 MECHANICS AND EFFECT OF CONVERSION. No fractional shares
of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of issuing
any fractional shares to Holder upon the conversion of this Note, Maker shall
pay to Holder the amount of outstanding principal that is not so converted. Upon
the conversion of this Note, Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at
the principal office of Maker. Upon conversion of this Note, Maker shall be
forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

<PAGE>

                  5.4 DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. As promptly as practicable
after the conversion of this Note, Maker at its expense will cause to be issued
and delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion (bearing such legends as
are required by applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of
counsel to Maker), together with a check payable to Holder for any cash amounts
payable for any accrued but unpaid interest and fractional shares as described
above. In the event only a portion of this Note is converted, Maker shall, at
the time of delivery of the stock certificate or certificates, deliver to Holder
a new Note evidencing the remaining unpaid principal balance of this Note, which
Note shall in all other respects be identical with this Note.

         6. MAKER RIGHT TO PREPAY NOTE. Subject to the earlier conversion of
this Note pursuant to Section 5 above, all or any portion of the unpaid
principal balance outstanding under this Note may be prepaid at any time during
the term of this Note at the option of Maker. In the event Maker elects to
prepay this Note, notice of such election shall be given to Holder not less than
sixty (60) days prior to the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall state
the amount of principal to be paid in cash, the date on which such prepayment
will occur and the place at which Holder is to surrender this Note to Maker.
Such notice by Maker shall be delivered to Holder at the address last shown on
the records of Maker for Holder or given by Holder to Maker for the purpose of
notice. In the event only a portion of this Note is prepaid, Maker shall, at the
time of prepayment and receipt of this Note, deliver to Holder a new Note
evidencing the remaining unpaid principal balance of this Note, which Note shall
in all other respects be identical with this Note.

         7. ADJUSTMENTS. The Conversion Price and the number of shares into
which this Note may be converted are subject to adjustment from time to time as
follows:

                  7.1 RECLASSIFICATIONS, ETC. If Maker, at any time while this
Note, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and unexpired by
reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities
as to which conversion rights under this Note exist into the same or a different
number of securities or any other class or classes, this Note shall thereafter
represent the right to acquire such number and kinds of securities that were
subject to the conversion rights under this Note immediately prior to such
reclassification or other change and the Conversion Price therefor shall be
appropriately adjusted.

                  7.2 SPLIT, SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If Maker, at
any time with this Note, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and
unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which
conversion rights under this Note exist into a different number of securities of
the same class, then (i) in the case of a split or subdivision, the Conversion
Price for such securities shall be proportionately decreased and the securities
issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be proportionately increased, and
(ii) in the case of a combination, the Conversion Price for such securities
shall be proportionately increased and the securities issuable upon conversion
of this Note shall be proportionately decreased.

         8. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. Holder acknowledges that this Note and
the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note (i) constitute
"securities" under federal and applicable state securities laws, (ii) will be
unregistered as such, and (iii) are being transferred in reliance upon
exemptions from registration based, in part, upon Holder's representations
contained herein. Holder is acquiring such securities for its own account and
not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof.

<PAGE>

         9. NO ASSIGNMENT. Neither Maker nor Holder shall be entitled to assign,
pledge, transfer or otherwise convey the benefits or burdens of this Note
without the prior written consent of the other, except that any entity acquiring
all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Maker shall automatically
acquire the burdens of this Note, however, Maker shall not be released from its
obligations hereunder.

         10. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. Prior to the conversion hereof, nothing
contained in this Note shall be construed as conferring upon Holder or any other
person the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder in
respect of meetings of stockholders for the election of directors of Maker or
any other matters or any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of Maker.

         11. APPLICABLE LAW. This Note and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder shall be construed under, and governed by, the laws of the
State of California without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions.

         12. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event of any suit, action or arbitration to
enforce any of the terms or provisions of this Note, the prevailing party shall
be entitled to its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. The foregoing
entitlement shall also include attorneys' fees and costs of the prevailing party
on any appeal of a judgment and for any action to enforce a judgment.
