    PROMISSORY
      NOTE

    


    Date
      of Note:  November 30, 2007

    Principal
      Amount:  $2,000,000.00

    


    PROMISE
      TO PAY.Magnetech
      Industrial Services, Inc., an Indiana
      corporation, and MISCOR Group,
      Ltd., an Indiana limited liability company, (collectively
“Borrowers”) jointly and severally promise to pay to BDeWees, Inc.,
an Ohio corporation, (“Lender”), or order, in
      lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Two
      Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal
      balance from November 30, 2007, until paid in full.

    


    PAYMENT.     Borrowers
      will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due beginning
      January 1, 2008, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same
      day
      of each successive month thereafter.  Borrowers' final payment, due
      November 30, 2010, will be for all principal and all accrued interest not yet
      paid. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law payments will be
      applied first to accrued unpaid interest, then to unpaid collection costs and
      late charges, and the remainder to unpaid principal.  The annual
      interest rate for this Note is computed on the basis of: actual days in the
      year/ 360; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over
      a
      year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied
      by
      the actual number of days the principal balance is
      outstanding.  Borrowers will pay Lender at 5316 Hawick St., N.W.,
      Canton, Ohio 44708, or at such other place as Lender may designate in
      writing.

    


    VARIABLE
      INTEREST RATE.   The interest rate to be applied to the
      unpaid principal balance of the Note will be at a rate equal to the Index
      Rate.  The interest rate shall change on the 1st day of
      each
      calendar quarter to the Index Rate then in effect.  The initial Index
      Rate shall be the Index Rate in effect on November 30, 2007.  Under no
      circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum
      rate
      allowed by applicable law.

    


    “Index
      Rate” means the prime rate published by The Wall Street Journal, and if
      that rate is not available for any reason, then the prime rate announced by
      Charter One Bank, Cleveland, Ohio (“Bank”) from time to time which is not
      necessarily the lowest rate charged by Bank on its loans and is set by Bank
      in
      its sole discretion. If the Index Rate becomes unavailable during the term
      of
      this Note, Lender may designate a substitute index from a comparable financial
      institution in the Cleveland, Ohio area after notifying Borrowers.

    


    PREPAYMENT.  Borrowers
      may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it
      is
      due.  Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing,
      relieve Borrowers of Borrowers’ obligations to continue to make monthly payments
      of interest.  Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance
      due.  Borrowers agree not to send Lender payments marked "paid in
      full", "without recourse", or similar language.  If Borrowers send
      such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights
      under
      this Note, and Borrowers will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed
      to
      Lender.  All written communications concerning disputed amounts,
      including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment
      constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other
      conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must
      be
      mailed or delivered to: BDeWees, Inc., 5316 Hawick St., N.W., Canton, Ohio
      44708.

    


    LATE
      CHARGE.  If a payment is 15 days or more late, Borrowers will
      be charged 3.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled
      payment.

    


    INTEREST
      AFTER DEFAULT.   Upon default, including failure to pay
      upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable
      law, increase the variable interest rate on this Note to 3.000 percentage points
      over the Index Rate.  The interest rate will not exceed the maximum
      rate permitted by applicable law.

    


    DEFAULT.  Each
      of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default")
      under
      this Note:

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
 

    Payment
      Default.   Borrowers fail to make any payment when due
      under this Note.

    


    Other
      Defaults.   Borrowers fail to comply with or to perform
      any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or
      to
      comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained
      in any other agreement between Lender and Borrowers or Lender and 3-D Service,
      Ltd (“3-D”).

    


    Cure
      Provisions.   If any default, other than a default in
      payment is curable, it may be cured (and no event of default will have occurred)
      if Borrowers, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of
      such
      default cure the default within thirty (30) days.

    


    LENDER'S
      RIGHTS.  Upon an Event of Default, Lender may declare the
      entire unpaid principal balance on this Note and all accrued unpaid interest
      immediately due and payable, and then Borrowers will pay that
      amount.

    


    SECURITY.    This
      Note is secured in accordance with the provisions of various security agreements
      between Lender and 3-D now or hereinafter entered into.

    


    ATTORNEYS'
      FEES; EXPENSES.   Lender may hire or pay someone else to
      help collect this Note if Borrowers do not pay.  Borrowers will pay
      Lender that amount.  This includes, subject to any limits under
      applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees and Lender's legal expenses, whether
      or
      not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees, expenses for bankruptcy
      proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or
      injunction), and appeals.  If not prohibited by applicable law,
      Borrowers also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided
      by law. All of the amounts set forth in this paragraph shall become part of
      the
      principal amount due and owing under this Note, and as such shall bear interest
      hereunder until paid in full. Nevertheless, if Borrowers are prevailing parties
      in any claim or lawsuit between Borrowers and Lender regarding this Promissory
      Note, then Borrowers shall not owe Lender any fees or expenses and, instead,
      Lender shall reimburse Borrowers for the attorneys fees and expenses they incur
      in such action.

    


    GOVERNING
      LAW.   This Note will be governed by, construed and enforced in
      accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Ohio.  This
      Note has been made and entered into in the State of Ohio.  Borrowers
      consent to personal jurisdiction in the courts in the State of
      Ohio.

    


    SUCCESSOR
      INTERESTS.   The terms of this Note shall be binding
      upon Borrowers, and upon Borrowers’ successors and assigns, and shall inure to
      the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns.

    


    GENERAL
      PROVISIONS.  If any part of this Note cannot be enforced,
      this fact will not affect the rest of the Note.  Borrowers do not
      agree or intend to pay, and Lender does not agree or intend to contract for,
      charge, collect, take, reserve or receive (collectively referred to herein
      as
      "charge or collect"), any amount in the nature of interest or in the nature
      of a
      fee for this loan, which would in any way or event (including demand,
      prepayment, or acceleration) cause Lender to charge or collect more for this
      loan than the maximum Lender would be permitted to charge or collect by federal
      law or the law of the State of Ohio (as applicable).  Any such excess
      interest or unauthorized fee shall, instead of anything stated to the contrary,
      be applied first to reduce the principal balance of this Note, and when the
      principal has been paid in full, be refunded to Borrowers.  Lender may
      delay or forgo enforcing any of its rights or remedies under this Note without
      losing them.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or
      remedy of Lender shall preclude the exercise of any other right, power or
      remedy.  Borrowers and any other person who signs, guarantees or
      endorses this Note, to the extent allowed by law, waives presentment, demand
      for
      payment, and notice of dishonor.  The records of Lender shall
      constitute presumptive evidence of the amounts owing under this
      Note.  Upon any change in the terms of this Note, and unless otherwise
      expressly stated in writing, no party who signs this Note, whether as maker,
      guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser, shall be released from
      liability.  All such parties agree that Lender may renew or extend
      (repeatedly and for any length of time) this Note or release any party or
      guarantor collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect Lender's
      security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed necessary
      by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone.  Borrowers, and
      all endorsers of this Note, hereby waive all acts on the part of the Lender
      or
      holder of this Note required in fixing Borrowers’ liability hereunder,
      including, without limitation, presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest,
      and notice of non-payment and protest, and any other notice whatsoever, and
      further waive any default by reason of extension of time for payment or any
      other indulgence or forbearance granted to Borrowers or endorser
      hereof..
