         THIS NOTE is one of a series of duly authorized and issued Notes of
American United Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), designated
as its Notes due the earlier of (i) March __, 2009 or (ii) the Company closing
on financing in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000, in the aggregate principal
amount of $1,235,000 (the "Notes").

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to the order of
[Holder] or its registered assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of
[__________] $(__________), on the earlier of (i) March __, 2009 or (ii) the
date the Company closes on financing in the aggregate amount of $12,000,000 (the
"Financing") and the Holder provides the Company with notice of demand to be
repaid within 10 days of the closing of the Financing (the "Maturity Date"), or
such earlier date as the Notes are required or permitted to be repaid as
provided hereunder. No interest is payable in connection with the Notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby unconditionally promises to
pay to the order of the Holder interest on any principal payable hereunder that
shall not be paid in full when due, whether at the time of any stated maturity
or by prepayment, acceleration or declaration or otherwise, for the period from
and including the due date of such payment to but excluding the date the same is
paid in full, at a rate of 12% per annum (but in no event in excess of the
maximum rate permitted under applicable law).

         Interest payable under this Note shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day) occurring in the period for which interest is payable.

         Payments of principal and interest shall be made in lawful money of the
United States of America to the Holder at its address as provided in Section 14
or by wire transfer to such account specified from time to time by the Holder
hereof for such purpose as provided in Section 14.

         The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Security
Agreement.

Agreement"), and (b) the following terms have the meanings indicated:

                  "Original Issue Date" means the date of the first issuance of

      2. Principal Payment upon Maturity. The Company must pay principal on this
Note in cash upon Maturity.

      3. Registration of Notes. The Company shall register the Notes upon
records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "Note Register")
in the name of each record holder thereof from time to time. The Company may
deem and treat the registered Holder of this Note as the absolute owner hereof
for the purpose of any conversion hereof or any payment of principal hereon, and

(any such new Note, a "New Note"), evidencing the portion of this Note so
transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Note evidencing the
remaining portion of this Note not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to

         redemption, prepayment or otherwise);

                  (ii) the Company or any Subsidiary defaults in any of its
         obligations under any other note or any mortgage, credit agreement or
