its  option,  (a) declare the entire unpaid  principal  balance  of  this  Note,
together with all  accrued  but unpaid interest, due and payable, and thereupon,
the same shall be accelerated  and  so  due and payable; provided, however, that
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default  described  in Sections 4(c) and (d),
without  presentment,  demand,  protest,  or  notice, all of  which  are  hereby
expressly unconditionally and irrevocably waived by the Company, the outstanding
principal balance of this Note plus all accrued  but  unpaid  interest  shall be
automatically  due  and payable; or (b) exercise or otherwise enforce anyone  or
more of the Payee's rights,  powers,  privileges,  remedies  and interests under
this Note or applicable law.  No course of delay on the part of  the Payee shall
operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice the rights of the  Payee.  No
remedy  conferred  hereby  shall  be  exclusive of any other remedy referred  to
herein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  Payee agrees  that  its  rights  and  remedies
hereunder are limited to receipt of cash in the amounts described herein.

      6.    Replacement.   Upon  receipt  of  a  duly  executed,  notarized  and
unsecured written statement from the  Payee  with  respect to the loss, theft or
destruction of this Note (or any replacement hereof),  and  without requiring an
indemnity bond or other security, or, in the case of a mutilation  of this Note,
upon  surrender  and  cancellation of such Note, the Company shall issue  a  new
Note, of like tenor and  amount,  in  lieu  of  such  lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated Note.

      7.    Parties in Interest, Transferability.  This  Note  shall  be binding

      10.   Governing  Law.   This  Note  shall  be governed by and construed in
accordance  with the internal laws of the State of  California,  without  giving
effect to the  choice  of law provisions.  This Note shall not be interpreted or
construed with any presumption  against  the  party  causing  this  Note  to  be
drafted.

      11.   Headings.   Article  and  section headings in this Note are included
herein for purposes of convenience of reference  only and shall not constitute a
part of this Note for any other purpose.

      12.   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, at law or in equity
(including, without limitation, a decree of specific  performance  and/or  other
injunctive  relief).   No  remedy  contained  herein shall be deemed a waiver of
compliance with the provisions giving rise to such  remedy  and  nothing  herein
shall  limit  a  Payee's  right  to pursue actual damages for any failure by the
Company to comply with the terms of  this  Note.   Amounts set forth or provided
for herein with respect to payments and the like (and  the  computation thereof)
shall be the amounts to be received by the Payee and shall not,







                                     - 4 -

<PAGE>
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
the  Company  of  its  obligations hereunder will cause irreparable and material
harm to the Payee and that  the  remedy  at  law  for  any  such  breach  may be
inadequate.   Therefore the Company agrees that, in the event of any such breach
or threatened breach,  the  Payee  shall  be  entitled, in addition to all other
available rights and remedies, at law or in equity,  to  seek  and  obtain  such
equitable  relief,  including  but  not limited to an injunction restraining any
such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss
and without any bond or other security being required.

      13.   Failure or Indulgence Not  Waiver.   No failure or delay on the part
of the Payee 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.

      14.   Binding Effect.  The  obligations  of  the Company and the Payee set
forth  herein  shall be binding upon the successors and  assigns  of  each  such
party, whether or  not  such  successors  or  assigns are permitted by the terms
hereof.

      15.   Severability.  The provisions of this Note are severable, and if any
provision shall be held invalid or unenforceable  in  whole  or  in  part in any
jurisdiction,  then such invalidity or unenforceability shall not in any  manner
affect such provision  in  any other jurisdiction or any other provision of this
Note in any jurisdiction.

      16.   Consent to Jurisdiction.   Each  of  the  Company  and the Payee (i)
hereby  irrevocably  submits  to the jurisdiction of the United States  District
Court sitting in the Central California  District and the courts of the State of
California located in Los Angeles County for the purposes of any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this  Note  and (ii) hereby waives, and
agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding,  any  claim that it
is  not  personally  subject  to the jurisdiction of such court, that the  suit,
action or proceeding is brought  in  an  inconvenient forum or that the venue of
the suit, action, or proceeding is improper.   Each of the Company and the Payee
consents  to  process being served in any such suit,  action  or  proceeding  by
mailing a copy  thereof  to  such  party  at  the address set forth in Section 9
hereof and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service
of process and notice thereof.  Nothing in this Section 17 shall affect or limit
any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

      17.   Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.   No delay or omission on the part
of the Payee in exercising its rights under this  Note,  or  course  of  conduct
relating hereto, shall operate as a waiver of such rights or any other right  of
the  Payee,  nor  shall  any  waiver by the Payee of any such right or rights on
anyone occasion be deemed a waiver  of  the  same  right or rights on any future
occasion.
