     Exchange Rights or a portion thereof then, (i) at any time 90 days after
     the Due Date giving rise to such Exchange Rights or (ii) during the
     continuance of a Mandatory Redemption Event, the Company may redeem, in
     cash, the unexercised portion of the Exchange Amount at a price equal to
     the sum of (1) 103% of the face value of the Exchange Amount then being
     redeemed plus (2) all accrued and unpaid interest then outstanding on the
     Note, if any; provided, however, that, with respect to any Exchange Amount
     existing as a result of a Special Event, the Company's right to redeem such
     Exchange Amount pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) shall be subject to
     the written consent of the Holder. To redeem any Exchange Rights, the
     Company shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
     account identified by Holder for such purpose the applicable amount
     required to redeem such Exchange Rights and notify Holder in writing of
     such payment.

                    (B) In addition to the rights set forth in Section
     2(c)(iv)(A) above regarding unexercised Exchange Rights, any Exchange
     Rights which have not been exercised 270 days following the Due Date giving
     rise to such Exchange Rights must be redeemed in cash by the Company at a
     price equal to the applicable Exchange Amount plus all accrued and unpaid
     interest then outstanding on the Note, if any. Within ten Business Days of
     the 270th day following the Due Date giving rise to such Exchange Rights,
     the Company shall grant to the Holder a Warrant to purchase 3,000 shares of
     Common Stock for each Monthly Payment Amount being redeemed in cash (and
     pro rata for any lesser amount), at a price equal to the closing price of
     the Common Stock on the Principal Market (as reported by Bloomberg) on the
     269/th/ day following the applicable Due Date. Delivery of such Warrants
     shall be made on or before the tenth day following the applicable 270/th/
     day. Such Warrants will expire one year from their issuance.

        (d)    Limitation on Beneficial Ownership. So long as the Company's
               ----------------------------------
Common Stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Company shall not effect any issuance of Exchange Rights and the Holder shall
not have the right to exercise any Exchange Rights to the extent that after
giving effect to such issuance or exercise such Person (together with such
Person's Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such action. For purposes of
this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Each Exchange
Notice shall constitute a representation by the Holder that,

                                       7
<PAGE>

after giving effect to such Exchange Notice, the Holder will not beneficially
own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.99% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, as reflected in the Company's most recent Form 10-Q or
Form 10-K, as the case may be, or more recent public press release by the
Company or other notice by the Company to the Holder setting forth the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding, but after giving effect to the exercise of
Exchange Rights (including the exercise with respect to which this determination
is being made) by the Holder since the date as of which such number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock was disclosed. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
upon an Event of Default or the occurrence of a Special Event, the Holder shall
have the right to exercise Exchange Rights in its sole discretion and at such
time or times as it deems appropriate.

          (e) Mechanics of Exercise.  The exercise of Exchange Rights shall be
              ---------------------
conducted in the following manner:

               (i)    The Holder's Delivery Requirements.  To convert Exchange
                      ----------------------------------
     Rights into shares of Common Stock on any date (an "Exchange Date"), the
                                                         -------------
     Holder shall transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on
     or prior to 11:59 p.m., eastern time on such date, a copy of an executed
     notice by the Holder of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
     (an "Exchange Notice") to the Company.
          ---------------

               (ii)   Company's Response.  Upon receipt by the Company of a copy
                      ------------------
     of an Exchange Notice, the Company shall as soon as practicable, but in no
     event later than one Business Day after receipt of such Exchange Notice,
     sign such Exchange Notice and send, via facsimile, such Exchange Notice to
     the Holder and the transfer agent for the Common Stock ("Transfer Agent"),
                                                              --------------
     which shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such
     Exchange Notice in accordance with the terms of such Exchange Notice.  Upon
     receipt by the Transfer Agent of such Exchange Notice, the Transfer Agent
     shall, no later than the second trading day following the date of the
     Company's receipt of the Exchange Notice, (A) issue and surrender to a
     common carrier for overnight delivery to the brokerage account from time to
     time designated by the Holder (the "Deephaven Brokerage Account") with the
                                         ---------------------------
     broker from time to time designated by the Holder (the "Broker"), a
                                                             ------
     certificate, registered in the name of Holder or its designee, for the
     number of shares of Common Stock to which Holder shall be entitled, or (B)
     in the event the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust
     Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the
               ---
     request of Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
     to which Holder shall be entitled to the Broker's balance account with DTC
     through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system to be further
     credited to the Deephaven Brokerage Account by the Broker.

               (iii)   Dispute Resolution.  In the case of a dispute as to the
                       ------------------
     determination of the Exchange Price or the arithmetic calculation of the
     Exchange Shares, the Company shall instruct the Transfer Agent to issue to
     Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed and shall
     submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the Holder
     via facsimile within one Business Day of receipt of the applicable Exchange
     Notice.  If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the
     determination of the Exchange Price or arithmetic calculation of the
     Exchange Shares within one Business Day of such disputed determination or
     arithmetic calculation being

                                       8
<PAGE>

     submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall within one Business Day
     submit via facsimile (A) the disputed determination of the Exchange Price
     to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and
     approved by the Holder or (B) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the
     Exchange Shares to the Company's independent, outside accountant, in each
     case at the Company's cost. The Company shall cause the investment bank or
     the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or
     calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later
     than the third Business Day after the date it receives the disputed
     determinations or calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's
     determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all
     parties absent manifest error.

               (iv)   Record Holder.  The Person or Persons entitled to receive
                      -------------
     the shares of Common Stock issuable upon an exercise of Exchange Rights
     shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such
     shares of Common Stock on the Exchange Date.

               (v)    Company's Failure to Timely Convert.
                      -----------------------------------

                    (A)  Cash Damages.  If within five Business Days after the
                         ------------
     Holder's delivery of an Exchange Notice (subject to extension in accordance
     with Section 2(e)(iii) for a good faith dispute made in accordance with the
     terms of Section 2(e)(iii)) (the "Share Delivery Period"), the Transfer
                                       ---------------------
     Agent fails to issue a certificate to Broker or credit Broker's balance
     account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the
     Holder is entitled upon the applicable Exchange Notice (an "Exchange
                                                                 --------
     Failure"), in addition to all other available remedies which the Holder may
     -------
     pursue hereunder and under the Securities Purchase Agreement (including
     indemnification pursuant to Article VIII thereof), the Company shall pay
     additional damages to the Holder for each day after the end of the Share
     Delivery Period until Broker receives a certificate or Broker's balance
     account with DTC is credited with the proper number of shares of Common
     Stock in an amount equal to 1.5% per month of the applicable Exchange
     Amount submitted for exchange by the Holder.

                    (B) Void Exchange Notice; Adjustment to Exchange Price.
                        --------------------------------------------------
     If for any reason the Holder has not received all of the shares of Common
     Stock prior to the tenth Business Day after the expiration of the Share
     Delivery Period with respect to an Exchange Notice, then the Holder, upon
     written notice to the Company, with a copy to the Transfer Agent, may void
     such Exchange Notice, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, the
     Exchange Rights that have not been converted pursuant to the Holder's
     Exchange Notice; provided, that the voiding of the Exchange Notice shall
     not affect the obligations of the Company to make any payments which have
     accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to Section 2(e)(v)(A) or
     otherwise. Thereafter, the Exchange Price of the Exchange Rights returned
     by the Holder for failure to timely convert shall be adjusted to the lesser
     of (i) the Exchange Price as in effect on the date on which the Holder
     submitted the Exchange Notice, (ii) the lowest trade price for the Common
     Stock during the period beginning on the Exchange Date and ending on the
     date the Holder voided the applicable Exchange Notice or (iii) the Exchange
     Price in effect on the day such Exchange Rights are resubmitted for
     exchange.

                                       9
<PAGE>

               (vi)   Book-Entry.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
                      ----------
     forth herein, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this
     Note to the Company unless the full Exchange Amount represented by this
     Note is being converted.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records
     showing the applicable Monthly Payment Amounts, the applicable Exchange
     Amounts, the applicable Exchange Rights, and all such conversions.  In the
     event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of Lender shall be
     controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.

          (f) Taxes.  The Company shall pay any and all transfer taxes (but not
              -----
income taxes) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of
Exchange Rights, Warrants, or Common Stock issued and delivered pursuant to the
Note.

3.   Anti-Dilution.

     The Special Event Trigger Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time as set forth in this Section 3.

          (a) Issuance of Additional Common Stock.  If and whenever the Company
              -----------------------------------
shall issue or sell any shares of its Common Stock for a consideration per share
less than the Special Event Trigger Price in effect immediately prior to the
time of such issuance or sale, then, upon such issuance or sale, the Special
Event Trigger Price shall be adjusted to that price equal to the fraction (i)
the numerator of which shall be equal to (A) (x) the Special Event Trigger Price
in effect immediately prior to such event multiplied by (y) the total number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such event plus (B) the
consideration received by the Company upon such issuance or sale, and (ii) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock immediately after such event, treating as outstanding all shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exchanges or exchanges of Exchangeable Securities (including
any Notes held by the Holder) and exercises of Stock Purchase Rights (including
any Warrants held by the Holder) provided that, no adjustment shall be made with
                                 -------- ----
respect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issued (1) upon exchange or
conversion of Exchangeable Securities outstanding on the date hereof, (2) in
connection with the Common Stock or Exchangeable Securities issued under an
Approved Company Plan, (3)  pursuant to the exercise of Exchange Rights granted
under the Note or upon exercise of a Warrant; or (4) as consideration in
connection with arms-length transactions involving the acquisition of other
companies or lines of business in the specialty finance industry.

          (b) Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations.  If and whenever
              ----------------------------------------------
the Company subsequent to the date hereof:

               (i)    declares a dividend upon, or makes any distribution in
     respect of, any of its capital stock, payable in shares of Common Stock,
     Exchangeable Securities or Stock Purchase Rights,

               (ii)   subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
     larger number of shares of Common Stock, or

               (iii)  combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
     smaller number of shares of Common Stock,

                                       10
<PAGE>

     then the Special Event Trigger Price shall be adjusted to that price
     determined by multiplying the Special Event Trigger Price in effect
     immediately prior to such event by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
     shall be the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately
     prior to such event, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total
     number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after such event,
     treating as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchanges
     or exchanges of Exchangeable Securities (including any Notes held by the
     Holder) and exercises of Stock Purchase Rights (including any Warrants held
     by the Holder).


          (c) Issuance of Exchangeable Securities or Stock Purchase Rights.  If
              ------------------------------------------------------------
and whenever the Company shall issue or sell any Exchangeable Securities or
Stock Purchase Rights (other than the granting of Stock Purchase Rights to
officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company pursuant to the
Approved Company Plan) under which a consideration per share for which shares of
Common Stock may at any time thereafter be issuable upon exercise thereof (or,
in the case of Stock Purchase Rights exercisable for the purchase of
Exchangeable Securities, upon the subsequent exchange or exchange of such
Exchangeable Securities) shall be less than the Special Event Trigger Price in
effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance or sale, then upon such
issuance or sale, the Special Event Trigger Price shall be adjusted as provided
in Section 3(a); provided that, no adjustment shall be made with respect to the
issuance of shares of Common Stock (1) upon exchange or conversion of
Exchangeable Securities outstanding on the date hereof, (2) in connection with
the exercise of Exchangeable Securities granted under the Approved Company Plan,
or (3)  pursuant to the exercise of Exchange Rights granted under the Note or
upon exercise of a Warrant; or (4) as consideration in connection with arms-
length transactions involving the acquisition of other companies or lines of
business in the specialty finance industry.

          (d) Readjustment of Exchange Price.  Upon (i) each change in the
              ------------------------------
purchase price payable for any Stock Purchase Rights or Exchangeable Securities
referred to in Section 3(c), (ii) each change in the consideration, if any,
payable upon exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights or upon the exchange or
exchange of such Exchangeable Securities, (iii) each change in the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Stock Purchase Rights
or the rate at which such Exchangeable Securities are exchangeable into or
exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or (iv) the expiration of any Stock
Purchase Rights not exercised or of any right to convert or exchange under any
Exchangeable Securities not exercised, the Special Event Trigger Price in effect
at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Special Event
Trigger Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Stock
Purchase Rights or Exchangeable Securities not been issued or sold.

          (e) Reorganization, Reclassification or Recapitalization of the
              -----------------------------------------------------------
Company.  In the event that the Company effects (i) any reorganization or
-------
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company (other
than in the cases referred to in Section 3(b)), (ii) any consolidation or merger
of the Company with or into another Person, (iii) the sale, transfer or other
disposition of the property, assets or business of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety or (iv) any other transaction or event as a result
of which holders of Common Stock become entitled to receive any shares of stock
or other securities and/or property (including, without limitation, cash, but
excluding any cash dividend that is paid out of the earnings or surplus of the
Company legally available therefor) with respect to or in exchange for

                                       11
<PAGE>

the Common Stock of the Company, there shall thereafter be deliverable upon the
exchange of this Note or any portion thereof (in lieu of or in addition to the
Common Stock theretofore deliverable, as appropriate) the highest number of
shares of stock or other securities and/or the greatest amount of property
(including, without limitation, cash) to which the holder of the number of
shares of Common Stock which would otherwise have been deliverable upon the
exchange of this Note or any portion thereof at the time would have been
entitled upon such transaction or event.

          (f) Maximum Exchange Price.  At no time shall the Special Event
              ----------------------
Trigger Price exceed the Special Event Trigger Price set forth in Section 1
hereof, except as a result of an adjustment thereto pursuant to this Section 3.

          (g) Waiver.  In the event that the Holder consents in writing to
              ------
limit, or waive in its entirety, any anti-dilution adjustment to which it would
otherwise be entitled hereunder, the Company shall not be required to make any
adjustment whatsoever with respect to this Note in excess of such limit or at
all, as the terms of such consent may dictate.

          (h) Notice of Adjustments to Special Event Trigger Price.  As
              -----------------------------------------------------
promptly as practicable after the occurrence of any event requiring any
adjustment under this Section 3 to the Special Event Trigger Price (or to the
number or kind of securities or other property deliverable upon the exchange of
this Note), the Company shall, at its expense, mail to the Holder a certificate
of an officer of the Company setting forth in reasonable detail the events
requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated
and specifying the adjusted Special Event Trigger Price.

          (i) Anti-Dilution Provisions in Other Securities.  If the Company
              --------------------------------------------
issues any Stock Purchase Rights or Exchangeable Securities or other securities
containing provisions protecting the holder or holders thereof against dilution
in any manner more favorable to such holder or holders thereof than those set
forth in this Note, such provisions (or any more favorable portion thereof)
shall be deemed to be incorporated herein as if fully set forth in this Note
and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision of this Note, shall be deemed
to be substituted therefor.

4.  Redemption.

     This Note shall be subject to mandatory redemption, in cash, upon the
occurrence of certain events and optional redemption at the option of the
Company, each as discussed below.

          (a) Mandatory Redemption.  If a Mandatory Redemption Event occurs
              --------------------
under any of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (vii) below, the Company will
accrue interest on the Exchange Amount at the applicable Default Rate for the
entire month in which the Mandatory Redemption Event occurs, regardless of the
duration of such event, and for any subsequent months (or portion thereof) into
which a Mandatory Redemption Event continues to be uncured.  If a Mandatory
Redemption Event occurs under either of clauses (v) or (vi) below, the unpaid
principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at the applicable Default
Rate.  If a Mandatory Redemption Event has occurred and has not been cured as of
a Notice Date, the Company will be required to pay the Monthly Payment Amount
for that month in cash on the applicable Due Date.  A "Mandatory Redemption
                                                       --------------------

          requirements of its Principal Market necessary to maintain the
          continued listing of the Common Stock, for 30 consecutive trading
          days, provided that such Mandatory Redemption Event shall be cured if
                -------- ----

          Principal Market for 15 consecutive trading days;

               (ii)   the receipt by the Company of a notice from its Principal
          Market regarding the commencement of a de-listing proceeding, provided
                                                                        --------
          that such Mandatory Redemption Event shall be cured upon the receipt
          ----

          Market stating that the Principal Market has ceased pursuit of
          delisting the Company;

          consecutive trading days or for a total of ten trading days out of the
          preceding 365 calendar days;

               (iv)   if for any reason (A) sales or resales, as the case may
          be, of Exchange Shares or Warrant Shares cannot be made pursuant to
          the Registration Statement following the date any Exchange Rights or
          Warrants are issued (whether because of a failure to keep the
          Registration Statement effective, to provide that the latest available
          prospectus meets the requirements of Section 10 of the 1933 Act to
          disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made
          pursuant to the Registration Statement, to register sufficient shares
          of Common Stock, or otherwise) for three consecutive trading days or
          for a total of ten trading days out of the preceding 365 calendar days
          or (B) upon issuance of Exchange Rights, the Exchange Shares or
          Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of such Exchange Rights are not
          listed on the Principal Market (subject to official notice of
          listing);

               (v)    any breach under any of the Transaction Documents that
          does not give rise to an Event of Default hereunder (after giving
          effect to any applicable cure period);

               (vi)   any default under any Material Debt (as defined in the
          Security Agreement) with respect to which the Company or any of its
          Subsidiaries has provided the applicable lender with notice of the
          existence thereof or with respect to which such lender has provided
          the Company or one of its Subsidiaries with notice of the existence
          thereof, that is not waived or cured; or

               (vii)  if, without prior approval of the Company's stockholders,
          the issuance of any of the Shares would result in the issuance of more
          than 19.99% of the aggregate number of outstanding shares of the
          Common Stock.

          (b)  Optional Redemption.  On each Notice Date, the Company shall have
               -------------------
the option to notify the Holder of its intent to redeem in cash (the "Optional
                                                                      --------

          (c)  Mechanics of Company Redemption.  Within one day after the
               -------------------------------
occurrence of a Mandatory Redemption Event, or on the Notice Date in the event
the Company has elected to make an Optional Monthly Redemption, the Company
shall deliver a written notice thereof via facsimile ("Notice of Redemption") to
                                                       --------------------
the Holder, which notice shall specify the type of redemption (and the nature of
the Mandatory Redemption Event, if any).  The Company shall pay the Monthly
Payment Amount, or portion thereof, to the Holder in cash on or before the
relevant Due Date by wire transfer delivered to the Holder as follows: American
National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago, 120 South LaSalle Street, Chicago,
IL 60603, ABA 071000770, FBO Deephaven/JE Matthew I, LLC, to such account or
accounts as the Holder may designate in writing to the Company from time to
time.

          (d)  Void Redemption.  In the event that the Company does not pay the
               ---------------
Monthly Payment Amount to the Holder on a timely basis as described in this
Section 4, in addition to any remedy otherwise available to the Holder hereunder
or under the Securities Purchase Agreement, such unpaid amount shall bear
interest at the applicable Default Rate until paid in full.  In the event that
the Company does not pay the Monthly Payment Amount, or applicable portion
thereof, within the time period set forth in Section 4(c), at any time
thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Monthly Payment Amount in
full, the Holder shall have the option (the "Void Optional Redemption Option")
                                             -------------------------------
to, in lieu of redemption, require the Company to pay interest and Default
Interest and to rescind the Notice of Redemption for that portion of the Monthly
Payment Amount (together with any interest and Default Interest thereon) which
has not been paid, by sending written notice thereof to the Company via
facsimile (the "Void Optional Redemption Notice").  Upon the Company's receipt
                -------------------------------
of such Void Optional Redemption Notice, (i) the Notice of Redemption pursuant
to an Optional Monthly Redemption Right shall be null and void with respect to
that portion of the Monthly Payment Amount subject to the Void Optional
Redemption Notice, (ii) the Company shall immediately rescind such Notice of
Redemption, and (iii) the Exchange Price of that portion of the Monthly Payment
Amount returned shall be adjusted to the lesser of (A) the Exchange Price as in
effect on the date on which the Void Optional Redemption Notice is delivered to
the Company, (B) the lowest trade price for the Common Stock (as reported by
Bloomberg) during the period beginning on the date on which the Notice of
Redemption is delivered to the Holder and ending on the date on which the Void
Optional Redemption Notice is delivered to the Company and (C) the Exchange
Price in effect on the day that amount is resubmitted for exchange.

          (e)  Disputes; Miscellaneous.  In the event of a dispute as to the
               -----------------------
determination of the lowest trade price or the arithmetic calculation of the
amount to be paid on redemption ("Redemption Price"), such dispute shall be
                                  ----------------
resolved pursuant to Section 2(e)(iii) above with the term "lowest trade price"
being substituted for the term "Exchange Price" and the term "Redemption Price"
being substituted for the term "Exchange Shares."  The Holder's delivery of a
Void Optional Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice
shall not affect the Company's obligations to make any payments which have
accrued prior to the date of such notice.  In the event of a redemption pursuant
to this Section 4 of less than all of the principal amount and interest of this
Note, subject to Section 2(e)(vi), the Company shall promptly cause to be issued
and delivered to the Holder a new Note representing the remaining unpaid
principal amount which has not been redeemed.

5.  Application of Payments/Prepayment.

                                       14
<PAGE>

          (a)  Upon the exercise by the Holder of its Exchange Rights or upon a
redemption in cash, of all or a portion of a Monthly Payment Amount, the amounts
received by the Holder shall be applied first to pay accrued interest on the
Note through and including the date of the exercise of the Exchange Right or the
redemption of a Monthly Payment Amount, as applicable, second to pay any
penalties due the Holder from the Company and third to reduce the principal
balance of the Note.  At any time during the term of this Note (other than
during the period when Exchange Rights arising from the occurrence of a Special
Event under Section 2(c)(ii)(1) remain unexercised), the Company may prepay the
Note, in whole or in part, at a price equal to (x) the outstanding principal
balance on the Note being prepaid times (other than in the case of Section 5(b)
below) 108% plus (y) accrued and unpaid interest on the Note.  Any such
principal prepaid shall be applied to the Monthly Payment Amount due under this
Note in the inverse order of their maturities.

          (b)  If all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the
Purchase Price Note is not due and payable because an applicable Note Condition
(as defined in the Purchase Price Note) has not been satisfied when required,
then the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Purchase Price Note not
so due and payable. Such reduction shall be applied to Monthly Payment Amounts
due under this Note in the inverse order of their maturities.

          (c)  If all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of the
Purchase Price Note is due and payable and the payor of the Purchase Price Note
has not made payments as required, then the outstanding principal amount of this
Note shall be reduced by an amount equal to the then outstanding principal
balance of the Purchase Price Note due and payable and not paid when required.
Upon such reduction, the outstanding principal balance of the Purchase Price
Note shall be deemed satisfied to the extent of the aforesaid reduction.  Such
reduction shall be applied to Monthly Payment Amounts due under this Note in the
inverse order of their maturities.

6.   Other Rights of the Holder.

          (a)  Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
               ---------------------------------------------------------------
Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another Person or
other transaction which is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock
are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock,
securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is referred
to herein as "Organic Change."  Prior to the consummation of any (i) sale of all
              --------------
or substantially all of the Company's assets to an acquiring Person or (ii)
other Organic Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the
Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets or the successor
resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the "Acquiring Entity") a
                                                       ----------------
written agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) to deliver
to the Holder in exchange for this Note, a note of the Acquiring Entity
evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to
this Note, and satisfactory to the Holder.  Prior to the consummation of any
other Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the Holder) to insure that the Holder will thereafter
have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition to (as the case
may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and
receivable upon the

                                       15
<PAGE>

exercise of Exchange Rights pursuant to this Note such shares of stock,
securities or assets that would have been issued or payable in such Organic
Change with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock
which would have been acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of Exchange
Rights pursuant to this Note as of the date of such Organic Change (without
taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of
this Note). Notwithstanding anything set forth in this subsection (a) to the
contrary, in the event of an Organic Change in which the Acquiring Company is
not a publicly held entity which trades on the Principal Market or other
national exchange or trading market, the Company shall prepay this Note and all
obligations due and outstanding thereunder in accordance with the prepayment
price set forth in Section 5 above.

          (b)  Purchase Rights.  If at any time the Company grants, issues or
               ---------------
sells any options, Exchangeable Securities or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any
class of Common Stock generally (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Holder will be
                                      ---------------
entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the
aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had
held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exchange of
the Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the
convertibility of the Note) immediately before the date on which a record is
taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such
record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to
be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

7.   Reservation of Shares.

     The Company shall, so long as any principal amount of the Note, any
Exchange Rights or any Warrants are outstanding, reserve and keep available out
of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, such amount of shares of Common
Stock required by Section 4.6 of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

8.   Voting Rights.

     The Holder shall have no voting rights as a stockholder, except (a) as
required by law, (b) as expressly provided in this Note or (c) to the extent the
Holder holds voting securities of the Company.

9.   Restriction on Redemption and Cash Dividends.

     Until all of the outstanding principal amount of this Note has been
converted, redeemed or otherwise satisfied as provided herein, the Company shall
not, directly or indirectly, redeem, or declare or pay any cash dividend or
distribution on, the Common Stock or Preferred Stock without the prior express
written consent of the Holder.

10.  Defaults and Remedies.

          (a)  Events of Default.   An "Event of Default" shall occur if (i) the
               -----------------        ----------------
     Company fails to pay any amount due under this Note when due, (ii) there is
     a breach of Section 3.8 of the Securities Purchase Agreement as of the
     Closing Date or there exists any fact or circumstance that would give rise
     to a valid claim by Holder under Section 11 of the 1933

                                      16
<PAGE>

     Act, (iii) the Company, Financial or DVI Business Credit Corporation

     make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (C) commence a
     voluntary case under United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended from

     thereof or of any foreign jurisdiction, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
     reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement or winding-up, or
     composition or readjustment of debts, (E) fail to controvert in a timely
     and appropriate manner, or acquiesce in writing to, any petition filed
     against it in an involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code or (F) take any
     corporate or other action for the purpose of effecting any of the
     foregoing, or (iv) a proceeding or case shall be commenced, without the
     application or consent of the Company, Financial or Business Credit, in any
     court of competent jurisdiction, seeking (X) its respective reorganization,
     liquidation, dissolution, arrangement or winding-up, or the composition or
     readjustment of its respective debts, (Y) the appointment of a receiver,
     custodian, trustee, examiner, liquidator or the like of the Company,
     Financial or any such subsidiary or of all or any substantial part of any
     of their respective property, or (Z) similar relief in respect of the
     Company, Financial or Business Credit under any law relating to bankruptcy,
     insolvency, reorganization, winding-up, or composition or adjustment of
     debts, and such proceeding or case shall continue undismissed, or an order,
     judgment or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be
     entered and continue unstayed and in effect, for a period of 60 or more
     days, or (v) there is an Event of Default under and as defined in the
     Security Agreement, (vi) the Company fails to issue Exchange Shares or
     Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents,
     or (vii) a breach of Section 3(b) of the Purchase Price Note.

          (b)  Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
               --------
     Holder may notify the Company that it is declaring the outstanding
     principal balance of this Note, in its entirety (including all Exchange
     Rights not yet exercised by the Holder) and all accrued interest and
     Default Interest and other amounts due or to become due, to be due and
     payable in cash immediately, except that in the case of an Event of Default
     arising from events described in clauses (iii) or (iv) of Section 10(a) of
     this Note, this Note, in its entirety (including all Exchange Rights not
     yet exercised by the Holder) and all accrued and Default Interest and other
     amounts due and to become due, shall become automatically due and payable
     without further action or notice by the Holder. In addition to any remedy
     the Holder may have under this Note or the Securities Purchase Agreement,
     such unpaid amount shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rate until
     paid in full.

11.  Amendment.

     This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in
writing signed by the Company and the Holder.  The term "Note" and all
references thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this
instrument as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as
so amended or supplemented.

                                      17

12.  Lost or Stolen Note.

     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and, in the case of loss,
theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the
Company in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and, in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Note, the Company shall
execute and deliver a new Note of like tenor and date; provided, however, the
Company shall not be obligated to re-issue the Note if the Holder
contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such remaining principal
amount into Common Stock.

13.  Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs.

     If: (i) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or
enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding; or (ii) an
attorney is retained to represent the Holder in any bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership or other proceedings affecting creditors' rights and involving a
claim under this Note; or (iii) an attorney is retained to represent the Holder
in any other proceedings whatsoever in connection with this Note, then the
Company shall pay to the Holder all reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
expenses incurred in connection therewith, in addition to all other amounts due
hereunder.

14.  Cancellation.

     After all principal and accrued interest at any time owed on this Note has
been paid in full and all Exchange Rights have been exercised, this Note shall
automatically be deemed canceled, shall be surrendered to the Company for
cancellation and shall not be reissued.

15.  Waiver of Notice.

     To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby waives demand, notice,
protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery,
acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note and the Securities
Purchase Agreement.

16.  Governing Law.

     All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Note shall be governed by the internal laws of the State
of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law
provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions)
that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the
State of Delaware.  The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Chicago, for
the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that
such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the
venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  The Company hereby
irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being
served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the
Company and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to limit in any way any

                                      18
<PAGE>

right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. THE COMPANY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY
TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR
ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

17.  Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive
Relief.

     The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to
all other remedies available under this Note or any other Transaction Document
(including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief),
together with any right of the Holder to bring any action under any Federal or
state securities laws or for fraud, all of which shall be the Holder's exclusive
remedies, no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with
the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit the
Holder's right to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply
with the terms of this Note.  The Company covenants to the Holder that there
shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly
provided herein.  Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to
payments, exchange and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the
amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided
herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance
thereof).  The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law
for any such breach may be inadequate.  The Company therefore agrees that, in
the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled,
in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any
breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or
other security being required.

18.  Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction.

     No specific provision contained in this Note shall limit or modify any more
general provision contained herein.  This Note shall be deemed to be jointly
drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any
person as the drafter hereof.

19.  Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.

     No failure or delay on the part of this Note in the exercise of any power,
right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

20.  USURY.

     If the interest provisions herein shall result in an effective rate of
interest which exceeds the limit of usury in the State of Delaware, all sums in
excess of those lawfully collectible as interest of the period in question
shall, without further agreement or notice between or by any party hereto, be
applied upon principal immediately upon receipt of such monies by the Holder,
with the same force and effect as though the payer has specifically designated
such extra sums to

                                      19
<PAGE>

be so applied to principal and the Holder had agreed to accept such extra
payment(s) as a prepayment (but not without premium).

21.  TRANSFER.

     The Holder may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of
the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided, that,
                                                               --------  ----
the Holder may assign all or any part of this Note to any financial institution
having assets of at least $10 billion.  Buyer may assign all or any part of its
rights hereunder to any Affiliate of Holder, provided, however, that any such
assignment shall not release the Buyer from its obligations hereunder unless
such obligations are assumed by such assignee.  "Affiliate" means any Person
                                                 ---------
which, directly or indirectly, controls or is controlled by or is under common
