b.           The Company may pay this Note at any time only with the prior written consent of the Lender.  This note may not be assigned by the Lender, except by operation of law.







c.           This Note shall initially be secured by the pledge of the $208,000.00 8% convertible promissory note issued to the Company by the Lender on even date herewith (the “Lender Note”).  The Company may exchange this collateral for other collateral with an appraised value of at least $208,000.00, by providing 3 days prior written notice to the Lender. If the Lender does not object to the substitution of collateral in that 3 day period, such substitution of collateral shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an exchange of collateral for $208,000.00 in cash shall not require the approval of the Lender. Any collateral exchange shall not constitute a waiver of any defaults under a Lender note. All collateral shall be retained by New Venture Attorneys, P.C., which shall act as the escrow agent for the collateral for the benefit of the Lender. The Company may not effect any conversions under the Lender Note until it has made full cash payment for the portion of the Lender Note being converted.

Upon the occur­rence of any Event of Default, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and all of the unpaid inter­est accrued thereon shall be immediately due and payable. The Company may offset amounts due to the Lender under this Note by similar amounts that may be due to the Company by the Lender resulting from breaches under the Lender Note.
