(the "Holder") or order, without demand, the sum of $200,000.00, with simple
interest accruing at the annual rate of 6%, on March 19, 2000 (the "Maturity

          The following terms shall apply to this Note:

                                   ARTICLE I

                           DEFAULT RELATED PROVISIONS

          1.1 Payment Grace Period. The Borrower shall have a ten (10) day
grace period to pay any monetary amounts due under this Note, after which grace
period a default interest rate of 16% per annum shall apply to the amounts owed
hereunder.

          1.2 Conversion Privileges. The Conversion Privileges set forth in
Article II shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the date
hereof and until the Note principal and interest are paid in full.

          1.3 Interest Rate. At the earliest of each Conversion Date (as

                                   ARTICLE II

                               CONVERSIOM RIGHTS

          The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal amount and
interest due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower's Common Stock as set
forth below.

          2.1.  Conversion into the Borrower's Common Stock.
                --------------------------------------------

          (a) The Holder shall have the right from and after September 16, 1998
and then at any time on or prior to the Maturity Date, as it may be extended by
agreement of the parties hereto, and until this Note is fully paid, to convert
up to one-half of the outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note of
$25,000 or greater amount, or any lesser amount representing the full remaining
outstanding and unpaid principal portion and at the Holder's election, the
accrued interest on the Note (the date of giving of such notice of conversion
being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common
Stock of Borrower as




                                       1

such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of
capital stock of Borrower into which such stock shall hereafter be changed or
reclassified (the "Common Stock") at the conversion price as defined in Section
2.1(b) hereof (the "Conversion Price"), determined as provided herein. The
entire principal amount of this Note and interest accrued thereon may be
converted commencing December 15, 1998. Upon the delivery of this Note to the
Borrower according to the procedure described in the subscription agreement
entered into between the Company and Holder (the "Subscription Agreement"),
accompanied, preceded or followed by notice from the Holder to the Company of
the Holder's written request for conversion, Borrower shall issue and deliver
to the Holder within seven days of the Conversion Date that number of shares of
Common Stock for the portion of the Note and/or interest converted in
accordance with the foregoing and a new Note in the form hereof for the
balance of the principal amount hereof, and/or interest if any. The number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be
determined by dividing that portion of the principal and/or interest on the
Note to be converted, by the Conversion Price.

          (b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the
Conversion Price per share shall be the lowest of: (i) the closing bid price
for the Common Stock on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market, or on any securities
exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being
traded, for the five trading days prior to the issue date of this Note; (ii)
eighty (80%) of the average closing bid price for the Common Stock on the
NASDAQ SmallCap Market, or on any securities exchange or other securities
market on which the Common Stock is then being traded, for the five trading
days immediately preceding (but not including) the Conversion Date with respect
to the Note principal and interest accrued thereon if the Conversion Date is
sooner than December 15, 1998; or (iii) seventy-five percent (75%) of the
average closing bid price for the Common Stock on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market,
or on any securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common
Stock is then being traded, for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding
(but not including) the Conversion Date with respect to the Note principal and
interest accrued thereon if the Conversion Date is on or later than December
15, 1998.

          (c) The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other
securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a)
and 2.1(b), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as
follows:

                A. Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time
shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all
its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal
portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to
evidence the right

                                       2


<PAGE>


to purchase such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as
would have been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to
the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to
successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions
of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser
after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.

                B. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by
reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a
different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to the
unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter
be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of securities
as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

                C. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of
Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of
shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares
of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case
of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the
case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event
bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such event.

                D. Share Issuance. Subject to the provisions of this Section,
if the Borrower at any time shall issue any shares of Common Stock prior to the
conversion of the entire principal amount of the Note (otherwise than as: (i)
provided in Sections 2.l(c)A, 2.l(c)B or 2.l(c)C or this subparagraph D; (ii)
pursuant to options, warrants, or other obligations to issue shares,
outstanding on the date hereof as described in the Reports and Other Written
Information, as such terms are defined in the Subscription Agreement (which
agreement is incorporated herein by this reference); [(i) and (ii) above, are
hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Option Obligations" for a
consideration less than the Conversion Price that would be in effect at the
time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue,
the Conversion Price shall be reduced as follows: (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be multiplied by
the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue and the product shall
be added to the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Borrower upon
such issue of

                                       3


<PAGE>


additional shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be
divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
such issue. The resulting quotient shall be the adjusted conversion price.
Except for the Existing Option Obligations and options that may be issued under
any employee incentive stock option and/or any nonqualified stock option plan
adopted by the Company, for purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any
security of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security into shares
of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock
shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of
shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights.

          (d) Note principal not previously converted into shares of Common
Stock may be converted by the Borrower into shares of Common Stock without
further action of the Holder on the date that is two years from the date of
issuance thereof, at the Conversion Price then in effect ("Mandatory
Conversion"). Notice of such conversion by the Borrower shall be given not less
than thirty (30) days prior to the applicable date of such Mandatory Conversion
(the "Mandatory Conversion Date"). As applicable, the notice shall specify Note
principal to be converted, the date fixed for conversion, and the conversion
price per share. In no event shall a Mandatory Conversion occur at any time
unless the Common Stock to be delivered upon conversion will be immediately upon
delivery and thereafter unlegended, freely tradable, and freely transferable on
the transfer books of the Borrower. A Mandatory Conversion may not be effected
by the Borrower if an Event of Default described in Article III hereinafter has
occurred or is continuing.

          (e) During the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will
reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of
shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of
this Note. Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Borrower agrees that its
issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents,
and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing
stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares
of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

          2.2 Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder
in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and the Subscription
Agreement. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same
date and provisions of this Note shall be issued by the Borrower to the Holder
for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been
converted.

                                  ARTICLE III
