Holder's address set forth above or to such other address as the Holder may

America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of

hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of
non-payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, bringing of suit,

omission with respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.

         2. COVENANTS.

                  The Company covenants and agrees with the Holder that, so long
as any amount remains unpaid on the Note, unless the consent of the majority in
interest of all of the Holders is obtained or except as otherwise provided
herein, the Company:

         (a) Shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on, or
purchase, redeem, or retire, any shares of its capital stock or any warrants,
options, or other rights to reacquire any such shares, except that the Company
may pay dividends payable solely in shares of its capital stock.

         (b) Promptly after the Company shall obtain knowledge of the occurrence
of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) or any event which with notice
or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default (an Event of Default
or such other event being a "DEFAULT"), deliver a notice specifying that such
notice is a "NOTICE OF DEFAULT" and describing such Default in reasonable
detail, and, in such Notice of Default or as soon thereafter as practicable, a
description of the action the Company has taken or proposes to take with respect
thereto.

         (a) A default in the payment of the principal on any Note, when and as
the same shall become due and payable.

         (b) A default in the payment of any interest on any Note, when and as

business days after the date fixed for the making of such interest payment.

         4. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT.

         (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Holder, by notice
in writing given to the Company, may declare the entire principal amount then
outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, this Note to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and be due and
payable immediately, without presentation, demand, protest, or other formalities
of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Company.

         (b) The Holder may institute such actions or proceedings in law or
equity as it shall deem expedient for the protection of its rights and may
prosecute and enforce its claims against all assets of the Company, and in
connection with any such action or proceeding shall be entitled to receive from
the Company payment of the principal amount of this Note plus accrued interest
to the date of payment plus reasonable expenses of collection, including,
without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses.

         5. TRANSFER. The Holder acknowledges that he has been advised by the
Company that this Note has not been registered under the Securities Act, that
this Note is being issued on the basis of the statutory exemption provided by
Section 4(2) of the Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, or both,
relating to transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. The
Holder acknowledges that he has been informed by the Company of, or is otherwise
familiar with, the nature of the limitations imposed by the Securities Act and
the rules and regulations thereunder on the transfer of securities. In
particular, the Holder agrees that no sale, assignment or transfer of this Note
shall be valid or effective, and the Company shall not be required to give any
effect to any such sale, assignment or transfer, unless (i) the sale,
assignment, or transfer of this Note is registered under the Securities Act, it
being understood that this Note is not currently registered for sale and that
the Company has no obligation or intention to so register the Notes, or (ii)
this Note is sold, assigned, or transferred in accordance with all the
requirements and limitations of Rule 144 under the Act, it being understood that
Rule 144 is not available at the time of the original issuance of this Note for
the sale of this Note and that there can be no assurance that Rule 144 sales
will be available at any subsequent time, or (iii) such sale, assignment, or
transfer is otherwise exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

         6. CONVERSION.

         (a) (i) During the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating
on the Maturity Date or the earlier prepayment of this Note pursuant hereto, the
Holder may convert the principal amount of this Note due and payable on the
Maturity Date, and any payment of interest thereon (the "CONVERSION AMOUNT"),
into shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Conversion Amount by the
Conversion Price (as defined below).

                  (ii) Unless earlier converted pursuant to Section 6(a) above,
on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal amount of this Note due and
payable on the Maturity Date, and any payment of interest thereon, shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock determined by dividing
the Conversion Amount by the Conversion Price (as defined below).




                                      -3-
<PAGE>


         (b) The number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon such
conversion shall equal the quotient of (A) divided by (B), where (A) equals the
principal amount of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, this Note, and where
(B) equals the Conversion Price. For purposes of this Note, the term "CONVERSION
PRICE" shall mean $0.60. Accordingly, the principal amount of the Note is
convertible into 66,667 shares of Common Stock and accrued interest thereon, is
convertible into Common Stock at the rate of 19 shares per day on the basis of a
360-day year.

         (c) In the event that the Company shall at any time after the date of
this Note (the "ISSUANCE Date") (1) declare a dividend on the outstanding Common
Stock payable in shares of its capital stock, (2) subdivide the outstanding
Common Stock, (3) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares, or (4) issue any shares of its capital stock by reclassification of the
Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation),
then, in each case, the Conversion Price at the time of the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution
or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination, or reclassification
shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the Conversion Price theretofore in
effect multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number
of shares outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such event and
the denominator of which shall equal the number of shares outstanding
immediately following the effective date of such event.

         (d) In case of any capital reorganization or the consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another Company (other than a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does
not result in any reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or
the conversion of such outstanding shares of Common Stock into shares of other
stock or other securities or property), or in the case of any sale, lease, or
conveyance to another corporation of the property and assets of any nature of
the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety (such actions being
hereinafter collectively referred to as "REORGANIZATIONS"), there shall
thereafter be deliverable upon conversion of the Notes (in lieu of the number of
shares of Common Stock theretofore deliverable) the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property to which a holder of the respective number of
shares of Common Stock which would theretofore have been deliverable upon the
conversion of such share of Notes would have been entitled upon such
Reorganization if such Notes had been converted immediately prior to such
Reorganization. In case of any Reorganization, appropriate adjustment, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, shall be made
in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights
and interests of the holders of the Notes so that the provisions set forth
herein shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, in relation to any
shares or other property thereafter deliverable upon conversion of the Notes.
Any such adjustment shall be made by, and set forth in, a supplemental agreement
between the Company, or any successor thereto, and the holders of the Notes, and
shall for all purposes hereof conclusively be deemed to be an appropriate
adjustment. The Company shall not effect any such Reorganization unless, upon or
prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation, or if the Company
shall be the surviving corporation in any such Reorganization and is not the
issuer of the shares of stock or other securities or property to be delivered to
holders of shares of the capital stock of the Company outstanding at the
effective time thereof, then such issuer, shall assume by written instrument the
obligation to deliver to the holders of the Notes such shares of stock,
securities, cash, or other property as such holders shall be entitled to
purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions.



                                      -4-
<PAGE>


         (e) In case of any reclassification or change of the shares of Common
Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes (other than a
change in par value or from a specified par value to no par value, or as a
result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change in the shares
into two or more classes or series of shares), or in case of any consolidation
or merger of another corporation into the Company in which the Company is the
continuing corporation and in which there is a reclassification or change
(including a change to the right to receive cash or other property) of the
shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes
(other than a change in par value, or from no par value to a specified par
value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, but including any change
in the shares into two or more classes or series of shares), the Notes shall
thereafter be convertible into solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and
other securities, property, cash, or any combination thereof receivable upon
such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger by a holder of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which Notes might have been exercised
immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger.
Thereafter, appropriate provision shall be made for adjustments which shall be
as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments in this Section 6.

         (f) The provisions of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 6 shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes of shares of Common
Stock and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, leases, or conveyances.

         7. MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a) Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by certified mail, return

given by other means permitted by this Section 7(a) shall be deemed given at the
time of receipt thereof.

         (b) No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of the
Holder in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or
otherwise prejudice the Holder's rights, powers or remedies. No right, power, or
remedy conferred by this Note upon the Holder shall be exclusive of any other
right, power, or remedy referred to herein or now or hereafter available at law,
in equity, by statute or otherwise, and all such remedies may be exercised
singly or concurrently.
