check sent to the Holder's address set forth above or to such other address as
the Holder may designate for such purpose from time to time by written notice to

time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private
debts. Alternatively, principal of, and interest on, this Note with respect to
the Maturity Date may be paid by electronic wire transfer in accordance with
instructions provided by the Holder to the Company at least 10 Business Days
prior to the Maturity Date.

      (f) The obligations to make the payments provided for in this Note are
absolute and unconditional and not subject to any defense, set-off,

and diligence in taking any action to collect any amount called for hereunder,
and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and
to be owing hereon, regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act, or
omission with respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.

interest of all of the Holders is obtained or except as otherwise provided
herein, the Company:

defined) has occurred and is continuing or, if any Default has occurred and is

      6. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.

      (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in Section

      7. TRANSFER.

      (a) Any Notes issued upon the transfer of this Note shall be numbered and
shall be registered in a Note Register as they are issued. The Company shall be
entitled to treat the registered holder of any Note on the Note Register as the
owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any
equitable or other claim to or interest in such Note on the part of any other
person, and shall not be liable for any registration or transfer of Notes which
are registered or to be registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of
a fiduciary unless made with the actual knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is
committing a breach of trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or
with the knowledge of such facts that its participation therein amounts to bad
faith. This Note shall be transferable only on the books of the Company upon
delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney
or representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment,
or authority to transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor,
administrator, guardian, or other legal representative, duly authenticated

representing in the aggregate a like principal amount, upon surrender to the
Company or its duly authorized agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall have no obligation to cause Notes to be transferred on its books to any
person if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, such transfer does not

      (b) The Holder acknowledges that he has been advised by the Company that
this Note has not been registered under the Securities Act, that this Note is
being issued on the basis of the statutory exemption provided by Section 4(2) of
the Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, or both, relating to
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The Holder
acknowledges that he has been informed by the Company of, or is otherwise
familiar with, the nature of the limitations imposed by the Securities Act and
the rules and regulations thereunder on the transfer of securities. In
particular, the Holder agrees that no sale, assignment or transfer of this Note
shall be valid or effective, and the Company shall not be required to give any
effect to any such sale, assignment or transfer, unless (i) the sale,
assignment, or transfer of this Note is registered under the Securities Act, it
being understood that this Note is not currently registered for sale and that
the Company has no obligation or intention to so register the Notes, or (ii)
this Note is sold, assigned, or transferred in accordance with all the
requirements and limitations of Rule 144 under the Act, it being understood that
Rule 144 is not available at the time of the original issuance of this Note for
the sale of this Note and that there can be no assurance that Rule 144 sales
will be available at any subsequent time, or (iii) such sale, assignment, or
transfer is otherwise exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

      8. CONVERSION.

      (a) (i) During the period commencing on September 30, 2004 and terminating
on the Maturity Date or the earlier prepayment of this Note pursuant hereto, the
Holder may convert the principal amount of this Note due and payable on the
Maturity Date, and any payment of interest thereon (the "CONVERSION AMOUNT"),
into shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Conversion Amount by the
Conversion Price (as defined below).

            (ii) Unless earlier converted pursuant to Section 8(a) above, on the
Maturity Date the outstanding principal amount of this Note due and payable on
the Maturity Date, and any payment of interest thereon, shall automatically be
converted into shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Conversion
Amount by the Conversion Price (as defined below).

      (b) The number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon such
conversion shall equal the quotient of (A) divided by (B), where (A) equals the
principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, this Note, and where
(B) equals the Conversion Price. For purposes of this Note, the term "CONVERSION
PRICE" shall mean $0.17.

      (c) (i) (A) In the event that the Company shall at any time after the date
of this Note (the "ISSUANCE DATE") (1) declare a dividend on the outstanding
Common Stock payable in shares of its capital stock, (2) subdivide the
outstanding Common Stock, (3) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, or (4) issue any shares of its capital stock by
reclassification of the Common Stock (including any such reclassification in
connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation), then, in each case, the Conversion Price at the time of the record
date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination, or
reclassification shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the Conversion Price
theretofore in effect multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
equal the number of shares outstanding immediately prior to the effective date
of such event and the denominator of which shall equal the number of shares
outstanding immediately following the effective date of such event.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>

                  (B) In the event that that Company shall at any time after the
Issuance Date issue any shares of Common Stock such that the number of issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis) shall exceed
12,000,000 (subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse
stock splits, and reclassifications, but excluding any shares issued or issuable
(i) upon exercise of the Warrants or upon conversion of the Notes (as such terms
are defined in the Agreement) or (ii) upon exercise of warrants issuable to
Trinity Bui and Beryl Zyskind convertible into Common Stock or upon the
conversion of up to the aggregate principal amount promissory notes held by
Trinity Bui and Beryl Zyskind into shares of Common Stock (the foregoing
adjustments and exclusions hereinafter referred to as the "Adjustments")), then,
in each case, the Conversion Price theretofore in effect shall be adjusted so
that it shall equal the product of (X) multiplied by (Y), where (X) equals the
Conversion Price theretofore in effect and where (Y) equals a fraction, the
numerator of which is 12,000,000 (subject to the Adjustments), and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding (on a fully diluted basis), provided that such denominator exceeds
12,000,000 (subject to the Adjustments).

            (ii) In the event that the Company shall fix a record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive issuance of rights or warrants
to be issued to all holders of Common Stock entitling such stockholders to
subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into
Common Stock) at a price (the "SUBSCRIPTION PRICE") (or having a conversion
price per share) less than the then Conversion Price on such record date, the
Conversion Price in effect at the time of such record date shall be adjusted so
that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying such Conversion
Price in effect immediately prior to such record date of such issuance by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding on such record date and (B) the number of additional
shares of Common Stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of
shares of Common Stock so offered (or the aggregate conversion price of the
convertible securities so offered) would purchase at the Conversion Price in
effect at the time of such record date, and the denominator of which shall be
the sum of (C) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record
date and (D) the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for
subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so offered
are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such
rights or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
rights or warrants; and, to the extent that shares of Common Stock are not
delivered (or securities convertible into Common Stock are not delivered) after
the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be
readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect had the
adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made upon the
basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock (or securities
convertible into Common Stock) actually delivered.

            (iii) In the event that the Company shall issue any securities
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock (excluding
securities issued in transactions described in clause (iii) above) for a
consideration per share of Common Stock (the "EXCHANGE PRICE") initially
deliverable upon conversion, exercise, or exchange of such securities
(determined as provided in (v) below) less than the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the issuance of such securities, the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to the date of such issuance shall be adjusted
immediately thereafter so that it shall equal the price determined by
multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be


                                      -7-
<PAGE>

the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the issuance of such securities and (B) the number of shares of Common
Stock which the aggregate consideration received (determined as provided in
clause (v) below) for such securities would purchase at such Conversion Price,
and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (C) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance and (D) the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion or exercise of, or
exchange for, such securities at the initial conversion, exercise, or exchange
price or rate. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such
securities are issued and shall become effective immediately after the date
issuance of such securities.

            (iv) For purposes of any computation respecting consideration
received pursuant to this clause (c), the following shall apply: (A) in the case
of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be
the amount of such cash, provided that in no case shall any deduction be made
for any commissions, discounts, or other expenses incurred by the Company for
any underwriting of the issue or otherwise in connection therewith; (B) in the
case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or
in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be
the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors of the Company (irrespective of the accounting treatment thereof), the
determination of which shall be a conclusive absent manifest error; and (C) in
the case of the issuance of securities convertible into, or exercisable or
exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock, the aggregate consideration received
therefor shall be deemed to be the consideration received by the Company for the
issuance of such securities plus the additional minimum consideration, if any,
to be received by the Company upon the conversion, exercise, or exchange thereof
(the consideration in each case to be determined in the same manner as provided
in clauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (v)).

      (d) In case of any capital reorganization, other than in the cases
referred to in paragraph (c) of this Section 8, or the consolidation or merger
of the Company with or into another Company (other than a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does
not result in any reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or
the conversion of such outstanding shares of Common Stock into shares of other
stock or other securities or property), or in the case of any sale, lease, or
conveyance to another corporation of the property and assets of any nature of
the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety (such actions being
hereinafter collectively referred to as "REORGANIZATIONS"), there shall
thereafter be deliverable upon conversion of the Notes (in lieu of the number of
shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable) the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property to which a holder of the respective number of
shares of Common Stock which would theretofore have been deliverable upon the
conversion of such share of Notes would have been entitled upon such
Reorganization if such Notes had been converted immediately prior to such
Reorganization. In case of any Reorganization, appropriate adjustment, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, shall be made
in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights
and interests of the holders of the Notes so that the provisions set forth
herein shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, in relation to any
shares or other property thereafter deliverable upon conversion of the Notes.
Any such adjustment shall be made by, and set forth in, a supplemental agreement
between the Company, or any successor thereto, and the holders of the Notes, and
shall for all purposes hereof conclusively be deemed to be an appropriate
adjustment. The Company shall not effect any such Reorganization unless, upon or
prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation, or if the Company
shall be the surviving corporation in any such Reorganization and is not the
issuer of the shares of stock or other securities or property to be delivered to
holders of shares of the capital stock of the Company outstanding at the
effective time thereof, then such issuer, shall assume by written instrument the
obligation to deliver to the holders of the Notes such shares of stock,
securities, cash, or other property as such holders shall be entitled to
purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions.


                                      -8-
<PAGE>

      (e) In case of any reclassification or change of the shares of Common
Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes (other than a
change in par value or from a specified par value to no par value, or as a
result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change in the shares
into two or more classes or series of shares), or in case of any consolidation
or merger of another corporation into the Company in which the Company is the
continuing corporation and in which there is a reclassification or change
(including a change to the right to receive cash or other property) of the
shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes
(other than a change in par value, or from no par value to a specified par
value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change
in the shares into two or more classes or series of shares), the Notes shall
thereafter be convertible into solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and
other securities, property, cash, or any combination thereof receivable upon
such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which Notes might have been exercised
immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger.
Thereafter, appropriate provision shall be made for adjustments which shall be
as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments in this Section 8.

      (f) The adjustment, provided by paragraph (c) of this Section 8 shall be
made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur and shall become
effective at the close of business on such record date or at the close of
business on the date immediately preceding such effective date, as applicable.
The provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 8 shall similarly apply
to successive reclassifications and changes of shares of Common Stock and to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales, leases, or conveyances.
