dated as of the date hereof by and between the Company and the Holder (as
amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the "PURCHASE
AGREEMENT").

          The following terms shall apply to this Convertible Term Note (this
"NOTE"):

                                    ARTICLE I
                         CONTRACT RATE AND AMORTIZATION

          1.1 Contract Rate. Subject to Sections 4.2 and 5.10, interest payable
on the outstanding principal amount of this Note (the "PRINCIPAL AMOUNT") shall
accrue at a rate per annum equal to the "prime rate" published in The Wall
Street Journal from time to time (the "PRIME RATE"), plus three percent (3.0%)
(the "CONTRACT RATE"). The Contract Rate shall be increased or decreased as the
case may be for each increase or decrease in the Prime Rate in an amount equal
to such increase or decrease in the Prime Rate; each change to be effective as
of the day of the change in the Prime Rate. Subject to Section 1.2, the Contract
Rate shall not at any time be less than nine and one half percent (9.50%).
Interest shall be (i) calculated on the basis of a 360 day year, and (ii)
payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on January 1, 2006, on the first
business day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter through and including
the Maturity Date, and on the Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or
otherwise.

          1.2 Contract Rate Adjustments and Payments. The Contract Rate shall be
calculated on the last business day of each calendar month hereafter (other than
for increases or decreases in the Prime Rate which shall be calculated and
become effective in accordance with the terms of Section 1.1) until the Maturity

the Common Stock underlying the conversion of this Note and each Warrant on a
registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), and (ii) the market price (the "MARKET PRICE") of the
Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market for the five
(5) trading days immediately preceding a Determination Date exceeds the then
applicable Fixed Conversion Price by at least twenty-five percent (25%), the
Contract Rate for the succeeding calendar month shall automatically be reduced
by 200 basis points (200 b.p.) (2%) for each incremental twenty-five percent
(25%) increase in the Market Price of the Common Stock above the then applicable
Fixed Conversion Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and anything to the
contrary contained herein), in no event shall the Contract Rate at any time be
less than zero percent (0%).

          1.3 Principal Payments. Amortizing payments of the aggregate principal
amount outstanding under this Note at any time (the "PRINCIPAL AMOUNT") shall be
made by the Company on March 1, 2006 and on the first business day of each
succeeding month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date (each, an
"AMORTIZATION DATE"). Subject to Article III below, commencing on the first
Amortization Date, the Company shall make monthly payments to the Holder on each
Repayment Date, each such payment in the amount of ($227,272.72) together with
any accrued and unpaid interest on such portion of the Principal Amount plus any
and all other unpaid amounts which are then owing under this Note, the Purchase
Agreement and/or any other Related Agreement (collectively, the "MONTHLY
AMOUNT"). Any outstanding Principal Amount together with any accrued and unpaid
interest and any and all other unpaid amounts which are then owing by the
Company to the Holder under this Note, the Purchase Agreement and/or any other
Related Agreement shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, with respect to Monthly Amounts due hereunder, the Company shall
have the option upon two business days' prior written notice to Holder to
postpone payment of any twelve (12) amortizing principal payments due and
payable on any twelve Amortization Dates (each a "Postponed Principal Amount",
collectively, the "Deferred Principal Amounts"; such Deferred Principal Amounts
shall be due and payable, at the Company's option, on any subsequent
Amortization Date or on the Maturity Date.

                                   ARTICLE II
                            CONVERSION AND REDEMPTION

          2.1 Payment of Monthly Amount.

                    (a) Payment in Cash or Common Stock. If the Monthly Amount
          (or a portion of such Monthly Amount if not all of the Monthly Amount
          may be converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2)
          is required to be paid in cash pursuant to Section 2.1(b), then the
          Company shall pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to 102% of the
          Monthly Amount (or such portion of such Monthly Amount to be paid in
          cash) due and owing to the Holder on the Amortization Date. If the
          Monthly Amount (or a portion of such Monthly Amount if not all of the
          Monthly Amount may be converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant
          to Section 3.2) is required to be paid in shares of Common Stock
          pursuant to Section 2.1(b), the number of such shares to be issued by
          the Company to the Holder on such Amortization Date (in respect of
          such portion of the Monthly Amount converted into shares of Common
          Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(b)), shall be the


                                        2

<PAGE>

          number determined by dividing (i) the portion of the Monthly Amount
          converted into shares of Common Stock, by (ii) the then applicable
          Fixed Conversion Price. For purposes hereof, subject to Section 3.6
          hereof, the initial "FIXED CONVERSION PRICE" means $5.50.

                    (b) Monthly Amount Conversion Conditions. Subject to
          Sections 2.1(a), 2.2, and 3.2 hereof, the Holder shall convert into
          shares of Common Stock all or a portion of the Monthly Amount due on
          each Amortization Date if the following conditions (the "CONVERSION
          CRITERIA") are satisfied: (i) the average closing price of the Common
          Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market for the
          five (5) trading days immediately preceding such Amortization Date
          shall be greater than or equal to 109% of the Fixed Conversion Price
          and (ii) the amount of such conversion does not exceed twenty five
          percent (25%) of the aggregate dollar trading volume of the Common
          Stock for the period of twenty-two (22) trading days immediately
          preceding such Amortization Date. If subsection (i) of the Conversion
          Criteria is met but subsection (ii) of the Conversion Criteria is not
          met as to the entire Monthly Amount, the Holder shall convert only
          such part of the Monthly Amount that meets subsection (ii) of the
          Conversion Criteria. Any portion of the Monthly Amount due on an
          Amortization Date that the Holder has not been able to convert into
          shares of Common Stock due to the failure to meet the Conversion
          Criteria, shall be paid in cash by the Company at the rate of 102% of
          the Monthly Amount otherwise due on such Amortization Date, within
          three (3) business days of such Amortization Date.

                    (c) Additional Conversion. Subject to prior satisfaction of
          the conversion of Monthly Amounts then due and owing to Holder into
          Common Stock as set forth in Section 2.1(b) above, if (i) the average
          closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on
          the Principal Market for five (5) consecutive trading days in any
          calendar month (the fifth day being called the "Trigger Date") shall
          be greater than or equal to 200% of the Fixed Conversion Price, then
          the Holder shall convert on each such Trigger Date, subject to
          Sections 2.1(a), 2.2, and 3.2 hereof, such principal amount of the
          Note as does not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate
          dollar trading volume of the Common Stock for the period of twenty-two
          (22) trading days immediately preceding such Trigger Date less any
          amounts previously converted during such period under Section 2.1(b)
          above. No more than one (1) Trigger Date may occur in any calendar
          month.

          2.2 No Effective Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, none of the Company's obligations to the Holder may be
converted into Common Stock unless (a) either (i) an effective current
Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)
covering the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with satisfaction
of such obligations exists or (ii) an exemption from registration for resale of
all of the Common Stock issued and issuable is available pursuant to Rule 144 of
the Securities Act and (b) no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) exists
and is continuing, unless such Event of Default is cured within any applicable
cure period or otherwise waived in writing by the Holder.


                                        3

          2.3 Optional Redemption in Cash. The Company may prepay this Note
("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") by paying to the Holder a sum of money equal to one
hundred thirty percent (130%) of the Principal Amount outstanding at such time
together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums
due, accrued or payable to the Holder arising under this Note, the Purchase
Agreement or any other Related Agreement (the "REDEMPTION AMOUNT") outstanding
on the Redemption Payment Date (as defined below). The Company shall deliver to
the Holder a written notice of redemption (the "NOTICE OF REDEMPTION")
specifying the date for such Optional Redemption (the "REDEMPTION PAYMENT
DATE"), which date shall be seven (7) business days after the date of the Notice
of Redemption (the "REDEMPTION PERIOD"). A Notice of Redemption shall not be
effective with respect to any portion of this Note for which the Holder has
previously delivered a Notice of Conversion (as hereinafter defined) or for
conversions elected to be made by the Holder pursuant to Article III during the
Redemption Period. The Redemption Amount shall be determined as if the Holder's
conversion elections had been completed immediately prior to the date of the
Notice of Redemption. On the Redemption Payment Date, the Redemption Amount must
be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the event the Company fails to pay the
Redemption Amount on the Redemption Payment Date as set forth herein, then such
Redemption Notice will be null and void.

                                   ARTICLE III
                           HOLDER'S CONVERSION RIGHTS

          3.1 Optional Conversion. Subject to the terms set forth in this
Article III, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert
all or any portion of the issued and outstanding Principal Amount and/or accrued
interest and fees due and payable into fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock at the Fixed Conversion Price. The shares of Common Stock to be
issued upon such conversion are herein referred to as, the "CONVERSION SHARES."

          3.2 Conversion Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert pursuant to the
terms of this Note an amount that would be convertible into that number of
Conversion Shares which would exceed the difference between (i) 4.99% of the
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and (ii) the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder. For purposes of the immediately
preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The
Conversion Share limitation described in this Section 3.2 shall automatically
become null and void following notice to the Company upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon 75 days prior notice to the
Company, or upon receipt by the Holder of a Notice of Redemption, except that at
no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
Holder exceed 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable by the Company and acquirable by the Holder at a price below $update
Friday $4.95 per share pursuant to the terms of this Note, the Purchase
Agreement or any other Related Agreement, shall not exceed an aggregate of
2,108,764 shares of Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock
splits, stock dividends, or other similar recapitalizations affecting the Common
Stock) (the "MAXIMUM COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE"), unless the issuance of Common
Stock hereunder


                                        4

<PAGE>

in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the
Company's shareholders. If at any point in time and from time to time the number
of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Note, the
Purchase Agreement or any other Related Agreement, together with the number of
shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable by the Company to the Holder
in the event of a conversion or exercise pursuant to the terms of this Note, the
Purchase Agreement or any other Related Agreement, would exceed the Maximum
Common Stock Issuance but for this Section 3.2, the Company shall promptly call
a shareholders meeting to solicit shareholder approval for the issuance of the
shares of Common Stock hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of
this Section 3.2 are irrevocable and may not be waived by the Holder or the
Company.]

          3.3 Mechanics of Holder's Conversion. In the event that the Holder
elects to convert this Note into Common Stock, the Holder shall give notice of
such election by delivering an executed and completed notice of conversion in
substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (appropriate completed) ("NOTICE OF
CONVERSION") to the Company and such Notice of Conversion shall provide a
breakdown in reasonable detail of the Principal Amount, accrued interest and
fees that are being converted. On each Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined)
and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall make the
appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees as
entered in its records and shall provide written notice thereof to the Company
within two (2) business days after the Conversion Date. Each date on which a
Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied to the Company in accordance
with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date (the "CONVERSION
DATE"). Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Company will
issue instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel
within three (3) business days of the date of the delivery to the Company of the
Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the
certificates representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by crediting the
account of the Holder's designated broker with the Depository Trust Corporation
("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system within
three (3) business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion
(the "DELIVERY DATE"). In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set
forth herein the conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and
the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been
issued upon the date of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. The
Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the Conversion
Shares, unless the Holder provides the Company written instructions to the
contrary.

          3.4 Late Payments. The Company understands that a delay in the
delivery of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to this Article
beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Holder. As
compensation to the Holder for such loss, in addition to all other rights and
remedies which the Holder may have under this Note, applicable law or otherwise,
the Company shall pay late payments to the Holder for any late issuance of
Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to this Article II upon
conversion of this Note, in the amount equal to $500 per business day after the
Delivery Date. The Company shall make any payments incurred under this Section
in immediately available funds upon demand.

          3.5 Conversion Mechanics. 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


                                        5

<PAGE>

principal and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then applicable
Fixed Conversion Price. In the event of any conversions of a portion of the
outstanding Principal Amount pursuant to this Article III, such conversions
shall be deemed to constitute conversions of the outstanding Principal Amount
applying to Monthly Amounts for the remaining Amortization Dates in
chronological order.

          3.6 Adjustment Provisions. The Fixed Conversion Price and number and
kind of shares to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to this Note
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain
events during the period that this conversion right remains outstanding, as
follows:

                    (a) Reclassification. If the Company 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 Amount and accrued interest thereon,
          shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an
          adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would
          have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
          Common Stock (i) immediately prior to or (ii) immediately after, such
          reclassification or other change at the sole election of the Holder.

                    (b) 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 or any preferred stock issued by the Company in shares of
          Common Stock, the Fixed 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.

                    (c) Share Issuances. Subject to the provisions of this
          Section 3.6, if the Company shall at any time prior to the conversion
          or repayment in full of the Principal Amount issue any shares of
          Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock to a Person
          other than the Holder (except (i) pursuant to Sections 3.6(a) or (b)
          above; (ii) pursuant to options, warrants, or other obligations to
          issue shares outstanding on the date hereof as disclosed to the Holder
          in writing; (iii) pursuant to options that may be issued under any
          employee stock option and/or any stock bonus plan adopted by the
          Company) or (iv) pursuant to an acquisition of a company (including
          stock or assets) by the Company for a consideration per share (the
          "OFFER PRICE") less than the Fixed Conversion Price in effect at the
          time of such issuance, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall be
          immediately reset pursuant to the formula below. For purposes hereof,
          the issuance of any security of the Company convertible into or
          exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock shall result in an
          adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of such
          securities. If the Company issues any additional shares of Common
          Stock for a consideration per share less than the then-applicable
          Fixed Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 3.6 then, and
          thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Fixed Conversion
          Price shall be


                                        6

<PAGE>

          adjusted by multiplying the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price by
          the following fraction:

                                      A + B
                          -----------------------------
                          (A + B) + [((C - D) x B) / C]

          A = Total amount of shares convertible pursuant to this Note

          B = Actual shares sold in the offering

          C = Fixed Conversion Price

          D = Offer Price .

                    (d) Computation of Consideration. For purposes of any
          computation respecting consideration received pursuant to Section
          3.6(c) above, the following shall apply:

               (i) in the case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for
     cash, the consideration shall be the amount of such cash, provided that in
     no case shall any deduction be made for any commissions, discounts or other
     expenses incurred by the Company for any underwriting of the issue or
     otherwise in connection therewith;

               (ii) in the case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock for a
     consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other
     than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined
     in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company (irrespective of the
     accounting treatment thereof); and

               (iii) upon any such exercise, the aggregate consideration
     received for such securities shall be deemed to be the consideration
     received by the Company for the issuance of such securities plus the
     additional minimum consideration, if any, to be received by the Company
     upon the conversion or exchange thereof (the consideration in each case to
     be determined in the same manner as provided in subsections (i) and (ii) of
     this Section 3.6(d)).

          3.7 Reservation of Shares. During the period the conversion right
exists, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a
sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Conversion Shares
upon the full conversion of this Note and the Warrant. The Company represents
that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable. The Company 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 the Conversion Shares upon the conversion
of this Note.

          3.8 Registration Rights. The Holder has been granted registration
rights with respect to the Conversion Shares as set forth in the Registration
Rights Agreement.


                                        7

<PAGE>

          3.9 Issuance of New Note. Upon any partial conversion of this Note, a
new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the
request of the Holder, be issued by the Company to the Holder for the principal
balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.
Subject to the provisions of Article IV of this Note, the Company shall not pay
any costs, fees or any other consideration to the Holder for the production and
issuance of a new Note.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                EVENTS OF DEFAULT

          4.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following events
set forth in this Section 4.1 shall constitute an event of default ("EVENT OF
DEFAULT") hereunder:

                    (a) Failure to Pay. The Company fails to pay when due any
          installment of principal, interest or other fees hereon in accordance
          herewith, or the Company fails to pay any of the other Obligations
          (under and as defined in the Guaranty) when due, and, in any such
          case, such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days
          following the date upon which any such payment was due.

                    (b) Breach of Covenant. The Company or any of its
          Subsidiaries breaches any covenant or any other term or condition of
          this Note in any material respect and such breach, if subject to cure,
          continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after the occurrence
          thereof.

                    (c) Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any
          representation, warranty or statement made or furnished by the Company
          or any of its Subsidiaries in this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any
          other Related Agreement shall at any time be false or misleading in
          any material respect on the date as of which made or deemed made.

                    (d) Default Under Other Agreements. The occurrence of any
          default in the observance or performance of any other agreement or
          condition relating to any indebtedness or contingent obligation of the
          Company or any of its Subsidiaries beyond the period of grace (if
