      sale(s) of its Equity Securities (defined below), from and after the Effective
      Date, in one or a series of transactions (the “Maturity
      Date”).
      “Equity
      Securities”
means
      the capital stock of a person or entity and/or any options, warrants, calls,
      rights, commitments, convertible securities and other securities pursuant to
      which the holder, directly or indirectly, has the right to acquire (with or
      without additional consideration) capital stock or equity of such person or
      entity.

      The
      occurrence of any of following events (each an “Event
      of Default”),
      not

      Borrower:

     

    7.1  The
      failure to make when due any payment described in this Note, the Loan Agreement
      or the Security Agreement, whether before, on or after the Maturity Date, by

    7.2  A
      breach
      of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Note,
      the
      Loan Agreement or the Security Agreement, which, if capable of being cured,
      is
      not cured within three days following notice thereof to Borrower or within
      three
      days of Borrower becoming aware of such breach; or

     

    7.3  The
      (i)
      application for the appointment of a receiver or custodian for Borrower or
      the
      property of Borrower, (ii) entry of an order for relief or the filing of a
      petition by or against Borrower under the provisions of any bankruptcy or
      insolvency law, (iii) assignment for the benefit of creditors by or against

      to
      take at any time any or all of the following actions: (i) declare this Note
      to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the entire unpaid Loan, together
      with
      all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon, and all other cash obligations
      hereunder, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand,
      protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
      waived by Borrower, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
      (ii) exercise any and all remedies provided under the Security Agreement,
      and (iii) exercise any and all other remedies provided hereunder or
      available at law or in equity.

    8.4  Governing
      Law.
      This
      Note shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California
      as
      applied to agreements entered into and performed entirely within the State
      of
      California by residents thereof, without regard to any provisions thereof
      relating to conflicts of laws among different
      jurisdictions.

     

    8.5  Waiver
      and Amendment.
      Any
      term of this Note may be amended, waived or modified only with the written
      consent of Borrower and Lender.

     

    8.6  Remedies;
      Costs of Collection; Attorneys’ Fees.
      No
      delay or omission by Lender in exercising any of its rights, remedies, powers
      or
      privileges hereunder or at law or in equity and no course of dealing between
      Lender and the undersigned or any other person shall be deemed a waiver by
      Lender of any such rights, remedies, powers or privileges, even if such delay
      or
      omission is continuous or repeated, nor shall any single or partial exercise
      of
      any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise
      thereof by Lender or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege
      by Lender. The rights and remedies of Lender described herein shall be
      cumulative and not restrictive of any other rights or remedies available under
      any other instrument, at law or in equity. If an Event of Default occurs,
      Borrower agrees to pay, in addition to the Loan and Interest payable thereon,
      reasonable attorneys’ fees and any other reasonable costs incurred by Lender in
      connection with its pursuit of its remedies under this Note.

     

    8.7  Default
      Interest.
      Borrower does hereby agree that whenever an Event of Default exists (including
      upon the failure of Borrower to pay the Loan in full on the Maturity Date),
      Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay interest on the
      entire unpaid principal sum and any other amounts due Lender at a rate (the
      “Default
      Rate”)
      equal
      to the higher of (a) the highest prime rate of interest per annum published
      in
      the Money Rate Table of the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal, as
      adjusted on a daily basis, plus eleven and three-quarters percent (11.75%)
      per
      annum, or (b) twenty percent (20.00%) per annum, in each case compounded
      annually.  Upon
      the
      occurrence of an Event of Default, the Default Rate shall be computed
      retroactively from the Effective Date and shall apply each day thereafter until
      the date Borrower cures the Event of Default and such cure is accepted by
      Lender; provided, however, that Borrower will only pay the incremental
      difference between the Interest Rate and the Default Rate for Interest already
      then paid by Borrower. Interest at the Default Rate shall be added to the Loan,
      and shall be secured by the Security Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.7
      shall be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the
      payment of the Loan, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing
      to
      Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.

    9.  Savings
      Clause.
      It is
      expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at
      all
      times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal
      law (to the extent that United States federal law permits Lender to contract
      for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under
      state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and
      agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement. If the
      applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render
      usurious any amount called for hereunder or thereunder, or contracted for,
      charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Lender’s
      exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment
      by
      Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that
      permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender’s express intent that all excess
      amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal
      balance of this Note and all other indebtedness evidenced hereby and the
      provisions of this Note, the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement
      immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder
      and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new
      documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
      recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder.
      All
      sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention
      of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
      prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan
      until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of
      the
      Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and
      applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding. Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Loan Agreement and the
      Security Agreement, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity
      of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to
      collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.

     

    IN
      WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has caused this Note to be signed on the Effective
      Date.
