                  AMNEX, INC., A New York corporation ("AMNEX") and AMERICAN
NETWORK EXCHANGE, INC., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
AMNEX ("ANEI", and together with AMNEX, the "Makers"), for value received,
hereby jointly and severally promise to pay to the order of FRANCESCO GALESI.
(the "Holder"), within fifteen (15) days following the date of receipt of demand
for payment (the "Due Date"), at the offices of the Holder indicated in
paragraph 5 hereof the aggregate principal sum of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND
($250,000.00) DOLLARS in such coin or currency of the United States of America
as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and
private debts and to pay interest on such principal sum from the date hereof at
a fluctuating rate per annum at all times equal to the prime rate of interest

Demand Promissory Note ("Note") shall be payable on the first business day of
each month commencing January 4, 1999, and on the Due Date.

1.   Registered Owner. The Makers may consider and treat the person in whose
     name this Note shall be registered as the absolute owner thereof for all
     purposes whatsoever (whether or not this Note shall be overdue) and the
     Makers shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. The registered
     owner of this Note shall have the right to transfer it by assignment and
     the transferee thereof upon his registration as owner of this Note, shall
     become vested with all the powers and rights of the transferor.
     Registration of any new owner shall take place upon presentation of this
     Note to AMNEX at its offices together with an assignment duly
     authenticated. In case of transfers by operation of law, the transferee
     shall notify the Makers of such transfer and of his address, and shall
     submit appropriate evidence regarding the transfer so that this Note may be
     registered in the name of the transferee. This Note is transferable only on
     the books of the Makers by the holder hereof in person or by attorney, on
     the surrender hereof duly endorsed. Communications sent to any registered
     owner shall be effective as against all holders or transferees of this Note
     not registered at the time of sending the communication.

2.   Redemption. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Note, hereby acknowledges
     that at any time, and from time to time, notwithstanding the lack of demand
     for payment on the part of the Holder, any of the Makers may, at its
     option, by written notice given to the Holder, elect to redeem and prepay
     all or any portion of the outstanding principal indebtedness evidenced by
     this Note, together with accrued interest thereon, without premium or
     penalty. Any such


                                                                     Page 1 of 5

     notice of a Maker's election to redeem and prepay as provided for
     hereinabove shall be given not less than five (5) business days prior to
     the date fixed in such notice as the date for redemption of this Note (the
     "Redemption Date"). Any payments received on this Note shall be applied
     first to any unpaid fees or other sums due and owing hereunder, next to
     accrued but unpaid interest, and then to the principal amount outstanding.

3.   Default Rate of Interest: Late Charge. In the event the Makers shall fail
     to pay all or any portion of the principal amount hereof on or before the
     Due Date, any such unpaid amount shall bear interest, for each day from the
     Due Date, until paid in full, at a fluctuating rate per annum at all times
     equal to the Note Rate plus five percent (5%) instead of the Note Rate as
     hereinabove provided, payable upon demand. In the event the Makers shall
     fail to pay timely any other amount due hereunder, the Makers, jointly and
     severally, agree to make a payment, in addition to all other required
     payments hereunder, equal to two percent (2%) of the overdue payment.

7.   Waivers. Makers hereby waive presentment for payment, protest and demand,
     and notice of protest, demand and/or dishonor and nonpayment of this Note,
     and all other notices of demands otherwise required by law that Makers may

     jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the City of
     Schenectady and the United States District Court for the Northern District
     of New York as well as to the jurisdiction of all courts to which an appeal
     may be taken or other review sought from the aforesaid courts, for the

     COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER ON ANY MATTERS
     WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
     COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS NOTE, OR ANY
     OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN). No party to this Note, including
     but not limited to any assignee of or successor to Makers or Holder, shall
     seek a jury trial in any lawsuit, proceeding, counterclaim or any other
     litigation procedure based upon or arising out of this Note or the
     relationship between the parties. No party will seek to consolidate any
     such action, in which a jury trial has been waived, with any other action
     in which a jury trial cannot be or has not been waived. THE PROVISIONS OF
     THIS PARAGRAPH HAVE BEEN FULLY DISCUSSED BY MAKERS AND HOLDER, AND THESE
     PROVISIONS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. NO PARTY HAS, IN ANY WAY,

     otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the
     use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed
     the maximum permissible under applicable law. Any interest received by
     Holder which would exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law
     shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced hereby
     and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every
     other provision of all agreements between Makers and Holder.

10.  Attorney's Fees. If this Note shall not be paid when due and shall be
     placed by the Holder hereof in the hands of any attorney for collection,
     through legal proceedings or otherwise, the Makers shall pay (on demand)
     all reasonable costs and expenses of collection incurred, including
     reasonable attorneys' fees.

     convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Note for

          Makers. No provision of this Note may be modified except by an
          instrument in writing signed by the party against whom the enforcement
          of any modification is sought.


     2.   Payment of interest due under this Note prior to the Due Date or
          Redemption Date, as the case may be, shall be made to the registered
          holder of this Note. Payment of principal and interest due hereunder
          on the Due Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be, shall be made

          hereof following presentation of this Note upon or after such

          of time that may elapse between the Due Date or Redemption Date, as
          the case may be, and its presentation for payment.


                                                                     Page 4 of 5

     3.   No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or
          interest on this Note against any officer, director or agent of any
          Maker, past, present or future, all such liability of the officers,
          directors and agents being waived, released and surrendered by the
          Holder hereof by the acceptance of this Note.
