     arising out of, relating to, or based upon, in whole or in part, any facts,
     transactions, occurrences, representations, acts, or omissions arising out

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Osprey Partners, (herein after referred to as "Maker"),
promises to pay to the order of Scangraphics. Inc., (hereinafter referred to as
"Payee" or "Company"), the principal amount of Two Hundred Forty Six Thousand
and Seventy Eight Dollars ($246,078.00) in such coin or currency of the United

payment of public and private debts, at the principal office of the Company,
together with interest on the unpaid principal balance. Interest on this
Promissory Note ("Note") will be calculated at the rate of 8.25% per annum.

This Note was issued to the Payee as payment for the exercise of certain Commnon

of Common Stock that were issued upon exercise of the Wts/Options are to be held
in "Escrow" by the Payee's law firm, Dilworth Paxson Kalish & Kaufmann, the
"Escrow Agent", and such shares shall not be released to the Maker until or
unless the following conditions have been satisfied:

Vesting Schedule: These Escrowed shares may not be released for trade or
transfer until the earlier of January 1, 2000 or in increments according to the
schedule below, provided that the pro-rata portion of the principal amount of
this Note relating to the vested share increments, and all related interest due
thereupon, has been paid to the Payee:

    (**) Trades at or over this price for any 30 day period during prior 12
         months.

These Escrowed shares will be forfeited in the event of voluntary termination of
services to the Payee by the Maker. These shares will not be forfeited due to
involuntary termination of Maker or in the event the Maker is terminated due to
inability to provide services to the Payee for reasons of health. In the event
of death of the Maker all restrictions will lapse, and the then vested shares
will accrue to the estate and/or heirs of the Maker. In the event of "change of
control" of the Company, all restrictions will lapse.

Payment of Note and Release of Shares from Escrow: The Maker shall pay the
pro-rata portion of the principal amount of the Note relating to the vested
share increments, and all related interest due thereupon, to the Company within
six months of the vesting of shares as per the Vesting Schedule above. Thus, in

                                                                              3

the event all shares vest as per the Vesting Schedule, the Note and related
interest are due in three equal installments of principal of $82,026.00 with
accrued interest, on the following dates:

                                  July 1, 1998
                                  July 1, 1999
                                  July 1, 2000

In addition, in the event the conditions of vesting provided for in the Vesting
Schedule are not met in any given year, but the vesting conditions are
subsequently met in the following year, the shares from the prior year will then
become vested. Further, any and all shares that may not have vested prior to
January 1, 2000, shall become vested as of this date as provided for in the
Vesting Schedule.

Upon receipt of such payments, the Company will then direct the Escrow Agent to
immediately release the vested shares to the Maker, free of any restrictive
legend.

Vesting: Grossly exceeding the "Company Annual Revenue" or "Stock Price" targets
as of any of the annual target measurement dates, as detailed in the above
Vesting Schedule, will not cause an acceleration of the vesting of these shares.

The market price of the Company's shares shall not be a cause for default of
payment of this Note by the Maker.

All payments shall be made to Payee at address below or at such other place as
the Payee may from time to time designate. Any payments on account of principal
and interest shall be applied first to interest as aforesaid and the remainder
thereof shall be applied to principal.

Maker shall have the privilege of paying the principal in whole or in part at
any time, and such payments may be made without penalty or premium; provided,
however, that each payment shall be accompanied by any accrued interest then
due.

Presentment for payment or acceptance, and notice of dishonor of payment or
acceptance, notice of protest and notice of any renewal, extension, modification
or change of time, manner, place or terms of payment, are hereby waived by Maker
or any endorsers, sureties and guarantors hereof.

Any failure or delay of Payee to exercise any right hereunder shall not be
construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at
any other time or times. The waiver by Payee of a breach or default of any
provisions of this Note shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach or default thereof. Maker agrees to reimburse Payee for all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Payee to
enforce the provisions hereof and collect Maker's obligations hereunder.

This Note shall be construed according to, and shall be governed by the laws of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The provisions of this Note shall be deemed
severable, so that if any provisions hereof is declared invalid under the laws
of any state where it is in effect, or of the United States, all other
provisions of this Note shall continue in full force and effect.

This Note shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Maker, and
shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns of Payee or any other Payee thereof.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Osprey Brothers, (herein after referred to as "Maker"),
promises to pay to the order of Scangraphics, Inc., (hereinafter referred to as
"Payee" or "Company"), the principal amount of Seventeen Thousand Five Hundred
Dollars ($17,500.00) 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, at the principal office of the Company, together with interest on
the unpaid principal balance. Interest on this Promissory Note ("Note") will be
calculated at the rate of 8.25 per annum.

This Note was issued to the Payee as payment for the exercise of certain Common
Stock Purchase Warrants and/or Options (the "Wts/Options"). The 10,000 shares of
Common Stock that were issued upon exercise of the Wts/Options are to be held in
"Escrow" by the Payee's law firm, Dilworth Paxson Kalish & Kaufmann, the "Escrow
Agent", and such shares shall not be released to the Maker until or unless the
following conditions have been satisfied:

Vesting Schedule: These Escrowed shares may not be released for trade or
transfer until the earlier of January 1, 2000 or in increments according to the
schedule below, provided that the pro-rata portion of the principal amount of
this Note relating to the vested share increments, and a related interest due
thereupon, has been paid to the Payee:

       (**) Trades at or over this price for any 30 day period during prior 12
            months.

These Escrowed shares will be forfeited in the event of voluntary termination of
services to the Payee by the Maker. These shares will not be forfeited due to
involuntary termination of Maker or in the event the Maker is terminated due to
inability to provide services to the Payee for reasons of health. In the event
of death of the Maker all restrictions will lapse, and the then vested shares
will accrue to the estate and/or heirs of the Maker. In the event of "change of
control" of the Company, all restrictions will lapse.

Payment of Note and Release of Shares from Escrow: The Maker shall pay the
pro-rata portion of the principal amount of the Note relating to the vested
share increments, and all related interest due thereupon, to the Company within
six months of the vesting of shares as per the Vesting Schedule above. Thus, in


                                                                             11

the event all shares vest as per the Vesting Schedule, the Note and related
interest are due in three equal installments of principal of $5,833.33 with
accrued interest, on the following dates:

                                  July 1, 1998
                                  July 1, 1999
                                  July 1, 2000

In addition, in the event the conditions of vesting provided for in the Vesting
Schedule are not met in any given year, but the vesting conditions are
subsequently met in the following year, the shares from the prior year will then
become vested. Further, any and all shares that may not have vested prior to
January 1, 2000, shall become vested as of this date as provided for in the
Vesting Schedule.

Upon receipt of such payments, the Company will then direct the Escrow Agent to
immediately release the vested shares to the Maker, free of any restrictive
legend.

Vesting: Grossly exceeding the "Company Annual Revenue" or "Stock Price" targets
as of any of the annual target measurement dates, as detailed in the above
Vesting Schedule, will not cause an acceleration of the vesting of these shares.

The market price of the Company's shares shall not be a cause for default of
payment of this Note by the Maker.

All payments shall be made to Payee at address below or at such other place as
the Payee may from time to time designate. Any payments on account of principal
and interest shall be applied first to interest as aforesaid and the remainder
thereof shall be applied to principal.

Maker shall have the privilege of paying the principal in whole or in part at
any time, and such payments may be made without penalty or premium; provided,
however, that each payment shall be accompanied by any accrued interest then
due.

Presentment for payment or acceptance, and notice of dishonor of payment or
acceptance, notice of protest and notice of any renewal, extension, modification
or change of time, manner, place or terms of payment, are hereby waived by Maker
or any endorsers, sureties and guarantors hereof.

Any failure or delay of Payee to exercise any right hereunder shall not be
construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at
any other time or times. The waiver by Payee of a breach or default of any
provisions of this Note shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach or default thereof. Maker agrees to reimburse Payee for all
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Payee to
enforce the provisions hereof and collect Maker's obligations hereunder.

This Note shall be construed according to, and shall be governed by the laws of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The provisions of this Note shall be deemed
severable, so that if any provisions hereof is declared invalid under the laws
of any state where it is in effect, or of the United States, all other

shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns of Payee or any other Payee thereof.
