the principal balance of TWO MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS and
NO CENTS ($2,655,000.00), together with unpaid interest, in the manner provided
below.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or
366 days, as applicable, and charged for the actual number of days
elapsed.

    


    1.           Lump Sum
Payment.  The principal of this Note, together with accrued and
unpaid interest, shall be due and payable in one lump sum payment due on January
1, 2015.

    


    2.           Interest.   Borrower
will pay interest on the outstanding balance of this Note at an annual rate of
six percent (6%) to be paid monthly in the amount of $ 13,275 on the first day
of each month.

    


    3.           Default.  The
occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute default under this
Note, and the Lender, at his option, exercise any or all rights, powers and
remedies afforded under the Note and by law, including the right to declare the
unpaid balance of principal and accrued interest on this Note at once mature and
payable:

    


    
      	
               
      

            	
              (a)

            	
              any
      part of the Note is not paid when due, whether by lapse of time or
      acceleration or otherwise.

            


    

    


    
      	
               
      

            	
              (b)

            	
              any
      action, suit or proceeding shall be commenced against or affecting
      Borrower, at law or in equity, or before any governmental authority, which
      in Lender's judgment, impairs or would impair Lender's ability to collect
      the Note when due or the enforceability of this
  Note.

            


    

    


    
      	
               
      

            	
              (c)

            	
              Borrower
      shall be in default under or in violation of any law, statute, ordinance,
      decree, requirement, order, judgment, rule or regulation (or
      interpretation of any of them) of the United States of America, any State
      of the United States of America or any political subdivision of any of
      them, or of any agency, department, commission, board, bureau or court or
      other tribunal having jurisdiction over any such party or any such party's
      property.

            


    

    


    4           
No
Delay.  No delay or omission of Lender or any other holder
hereof to exercise any power, right or remedy accruing to Lender or any other
holder hereof shall impair any such power, right or remedy or shall be construed
to be a waiver of the right to exercise any such power, right or
remedy.  Lender's right to accelerate this Note for any late payment
or Borrower’s failure to timely fulfill its other obligations hereunder shall
not be waived or deemed waived by Lender by Lender's having accepted a late
payment or late payments in the past or Lender otherwise not accelerating this
note or exercising other remedies for Borrower's failure to timely perform its
obligations hereunder.  Lender shall not be obligated or be deemed
obligated to notify Borrower that it is requiring Borrower to strictly comply
with the terms and provisions of this note before accelerating this note and
exercising its other remedies hereunder because of Borrower's failure to timely
perform its obligations under this Note.

    


    5.           Expenses of
Collection.  The Borrower  agrees, subject only to
any limitation imposed by applicable law, to pay all expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable legal expenses, incurred by the holder
of this Note in endeavoring to collect any amounts payable hereunder which are
not paid when due.

    


    6.           Waiver.  The
undersigned Borrower, and any endorser or guarantors hereof, waive diligence,
presentment, protest and demand, and also notice of intent to accelerate and of
acceleration, notice of default, notice of protest, demand, dishonor or
nonpayment of this Note, and expressly agrees that this Note, or any payment
hereunder, may be extended from time to time, one or more times, for like or
different periods of time, all without in any way affecting the liability of the
undersigned and of any endorser or guarantor hereof.

    


    7.           Invalidity.  If
any provision of this Note is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under
present or future laws, the legality, validity and enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Note shall not be affected thereby, and this Note
shall be liberally construed so as to carry out the intent of the parties to
it.  Each waiver in this Note is subject to the overriding and
controlling rule that it shall be effective only if and to the extent that (a)
it is not prohibited by applicable law and (b) applicable law neither provides
for nor allows any material sanctions to be imposed against Lender for having
bargained for and obtained it.

    


    8.           Notices.  Any
notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be given in writing by delivering it against receipt for it, by
