      and





WHEREAS,
      the Parties desire to evidence the amount due thereunder by this Loan Agreement
      and Convertible Promissory Note (“ **Note** ”)
      which
      shall accrue interest at a rate of 3% per annum.





NOW
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and for other good and valuable
      consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
      the
      parties hereto hereby agree as follows:





1.  The
      Maker, unconditionally promises to pay to the order of the Payee, the principal
      sum of the Loans together with accrued interest thereon from the date of
      issuance hereof. The Maker further agrees to pay all costs of collection,
      including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Payee or by any other
      holder of this Note in any action to collect this Note, whether or not suit
      is
      brought.





3.  Principal
      and accrued interest shall be payable on December 31, 2006. Maker shall have
      the
      right at any time to prepay, in whole or in part, the principal and accrued
      interest without penalty upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the
      Payee.





4.  The
      amounts due hereunder are payable without deduction or offset in lawful money
      of
      the United States of America in immediately available funds to the Payee at
      its
      address as set forth above, or at such other place as the holder of this Note
      shall from time to time designate.





5.  It
      shall
      be an event of default (“ **Event
      of Default** ”),
      and
      the then unpaid portion of this Note shall become immediately due and payable,
      at the election of Payee, upon the occurrence of any of the following
      events:




(a)  any
      failure on the part of Maker to make any payment hereunder when due, whether
      by
      acceleration or otherwise;





(b)  Maker
      shall commence (or take any action for the purpose of commencing) any proceeding
      under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt,
      moratorium or similar law or statute; or





(c)  a
      proceeding shall be commenced against Maker under any bankruptcy,
      reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, moratorium or similar law
      or
      statute and relief is ordered against Maker, or the proceeding is controverted
      but is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the commencement
      thereof.





6.  The
      principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest hereunder shall be
      convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of the Maker’s common stock in the
      manner described below at the option of the Payee or other holder hereof at
      any
      time prior to maturity, upon ten (10) days advance written notice to the Maker.
      The number of shares of the Maker’s common stock issuable upon such conversion
      shall be determined by the Board of Directors
      of the Company based on what it determines the fair market value of the Company
      is at the time of such conversion. Upon conversion, this Note shall be canceled
      and a replacement note on identical terms shall be promptly issued by the maker
      to the holder hereof to evidence the remaining outstanding principal amount
      hereof as of the date of the conversion, if applicable. In the event of a
      stock-split, combination, stock dividend, recapitalization of the Maker or
      similar event, the conversion price and number of shares issuable upon
      conversion shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the occurrence of such
      event.




7.  No
      failure on the part of the Payee or any other holder of this Note to exercise
      and no delay in exercising any right, remedy or power hereunder or under any
      other document or agreement executed in connection herewith shall operate as
      a
      waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Payee or any
      other holder of this Note of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude
      any
      other or future exercise of any other right, remedy or power.





8.  This
      Note
      shall be binding upon the Maker and the Maker’s successors and
      assigns.





9.  This
      Note
      shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
      of
      New York, excluding the conflicts of laws principles thereof.





10.  In
      the
      event that any one or more of the provisions of this Note shall for any reason
      be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, or in
      any
      respect, or in the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Note
      shall operate, or would prospectively operate, to invalidate this Note, then,
      and in any such event, such provision or provisions only shall be deemed null
      and void and of no force or effect and shall not affect any other provision
      of
      this Note, and the remaining provisions of this Note shall remain operative
      and
      in full force and effect, shall be valid, legal and enforceable, and shall
      in no
      way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.





11.  All
      agreements between Maker and Payee are hereby expressly limited so that in
      no
      event whatsoever, whether by reason of deferment in accordance with this Note
      or
      under any agreement or by virtue of acceleration or maturity of the Note, or
      otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Payee hereunder
      or
      to compensate Payee for damages to be suffered by reason of a late payment
      hereof, exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. If enforcement
      of
      any provision hereof at the time performance of such provision shall be due,
      shall exceed the limit of validity prescribed by law, the relevant obligations
      to be fulfilled shall be deemed reduced to the limit of such validity. This
      provision shall never be superseded or waived and shall control every other
      provision of all agreements among Maker and Payee.





12.  Subject
      to applicable federal and state securities laws, the Payee may assign this
      Note
      without first obtaining the consent of the Maker.





13.  Subject
      to the applicable cure periods contained herein, time is of the essence of
      this
      Note.

      THIS NOTE).





15.  TO
      THE
      FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE MAKER HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND
      VOLUNTARILY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT THERETO IN ANY ACTION OR
      PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND ARISING UNDER OR OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATED TO OR
