Mr. Edward L. Machulak
903 West Green Tree Road
River Hills, Wisconsin  53217

Dear Mr. Machulak:

At today's Commerce Group Corp. (Commerce) Directors' meeting, the Directors
were informed about the annual confirmation, disclosure and status letter that
you requested from Commerce and its affiliates to establish and confirm the
amount due and the collateral pledged along with any other Commerce
obligations or agreements made to Edward L. Machulak (ELM and/or Lender) as an
individual and not as a Director or Officer of Commerce or its subsidiaries or
as the authorized designee of the Joint Venture as of Commerce's fiscal year
ended March 31, 2006.  Today, Commerce's Directors, by unanimous consent,
approved, ratified and confirmed the contents of this letter and authorized me
to submit its understanding of your status with Commerce, which is as follows:

1.   Promissory Notes and Other Obligations

     a. An open-ended, secured, on-demand promissory note (Note) dated October
        1, 1989 in which all of the prior promissory notes were consolidated
        into this single Note amounted to $490,217.19 as of that date.  All
        future advances and interest, not paid, are added to this Note, and
        payments to ELM reduce the amount owed.  This Note, together with cash
        and other advances and interest as of March 31, 2006, amounts to
        $9,698,412.44.  Commerce has renewed this promissory note as of March
        31, 2006 and a copy is attached (Exhibit A).  A schedule including all
        of the transactions pertaining to the activities relating to this Note
        during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 is also attached (Exhibit
        A-1).  This Note bears interest, payable monthly, at the rate of 2%
        over the prime rate established from time to time by the First
        National Bank of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, (then Bank One; now the
        prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal), but not less than
        16% per annum.  Commerce is no longer issuing monthly notes for the
        payment of interest, etc., but pursuant to our understanding, Commerce
        is augmenting all additions and advances made by

   <PAGE>

        ELM, and it will deduct any payments or credits made by Commerce to
        the current open-ended, secured, on-demand, outstanding promissory
        note(s) issued or obligations owed to ELM.

        On May 9, 2005, Commerce's Directors authorized its Officers to issue
        renewed annual note(s) (Exhibit B of the May 9, 2005 confirmation
        letter) so that the Lender will have a current substituted dated debt
        instrument.  The Directors acknowledged that the issuance of note(s)
        for each transaction are too cumbersome and are not practicable to
        manage.  Also, the length of time involved and the number of
        transactions make it impractical to devote the time and effort to
        issue a note for each transaction.  Therefore, the Directors have
        unanimously agreed to continue to embrace this resolution, which was
        adopted on May 9, 2005:

               WHEREAS, in the past 20 years or more the following
        parties: General Lumber & Supply Co., Inc. (GLSCO); Edward L.
        Machulak  as an individual and not as a Director or Officer of
        Commerce (ELM); the Edward L. Machulak Rollover Individual Retirement
        Account (ELM RIRA), the Sylvia Machulak Rollover Individual Retirement
        Account (SM RIRA), and Sylvia Machulak, as a consultant and as an
        individual (SM), hereafter collectively and individually identified as
        the Lender(s), have accounted for advancing cash funds, earning
        accrued interest, and for appropriate credit which was reconciled to
        the open-ended, secured, on-demand notes(s); and

               WHEREAS, the Directors desire to minimize the record keeping in
        these transactions without jeopardizing, diminishing, altering,
        changing or losing any rights that the Lenders have by changing the
        procedures in handling the recording of any notes(s) issued or to be
        issued; and

               WHEREAS, in order to provide an easier accounting facility by
        renewing the notes(s) on an annual basis to coincide with the
        Company's fiscal year (which presently ends on March 31) and to
        incorporate said renewed note(s) with the annual confirmation
        agreement(s); and

               WHEREAS, prior to the change to issue substituted renewed
        note(s), the initial promissory note(s) were considered to be
        open-ended, secured, on-demand and the additions and deductions were
        recognized by separate accounting records; therefore, be it

                    RESOLVED, That the Directors authorize and empower the
               Officers to substitute and issue renewed consolidated
               promissory note(s) at the end of each fiscal year beginning
               with the Company's fiscal year

               ended March 31, 2005 to the following: General Lumber & Supply
               Co., Inc.  (GLSCO); Edward L. Machulak  as an individual and
               not as a Director or Officer of Commerce (ELM); the Edward L.
               Machulak Rollover Individual Retirement Account (ELM RIRA), the
               Sylvia Machulak Rollover Individual Retirement Account (SM
               RIRA), and Sylvia Machulak, as a consultant and as an
               individual (SM), hereafter collectively and individually
               identified as the Lender(s); and

                    BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Officers of the Company
               are authorized and empowered to assure the Lender(s) that by
               substituting and consolidating the existing note(s) and issuing
               the renewed note(s) on the last day of the Company's fiscal
               year beginning with March 31, 2005 with the understanding that
               the intention is that the Lender(s) will not jeopardize, lose,
               diminish, risk, alter or change any rights, including the
               pledge of collateral, that are inherent with the initial
               note(s) by the issuance of annual renewed open-ended, secured,
               on-demand promissory note(s); and

                    BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Directors acknowledge
               that the only purpose of the change and substitution to issue
               annual renewed notes(s) is for the convenience, reduced
               accounting and reducing the paperwork involved; and

                    BE IT FURTHER RESOVED, That the Officers are authorized
               and empowered to perform any act that they deem necessary to
               accommodate the purpose of issuing annual renewed note(s).

     b.   Salaries, vacation pay

          In addition to the promissory note, Commerce owes ELM the following
          for accrued salaries and vacation:

                      Period              Years  Annual Salary      Total

          At Commerce's Annual Board of Directors' Meeting held on October 19,
          2001, the Directors adopted a resolution to compensate ELM for
          vacation pay based on one month for each year of service beginning
          on April 1, 1981, and also the following resolution, which in part
          states:

               "BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Directors agreed that on the
          day the compensation will be paid to Edward L. Machulak, an
          adjustment will be made to compensate him for the loss of the dollar
          purchasing value caused by inflation and other economic factors;"

     c.   ELM Bonus agreement

          On February 16, 1987, by a Consent Resolution of all of the
          Directors, ELM was awarded as a bonus compensation, the following:
          for a period of 20 years, commencing the first day of the month
          following the month in which Commerce begins to produce gold from
          its El Salvadoran gold mining operations, Commerce will pay annually
          to ELM, 2% of the pre-tax profits earned from these operations.
          Reference is made to Exhibit 11 included in the April 9, 1990
          confirmation letter.

     d.   Share loans

          To infuse funds into Commerce, Commerce from time to time borrowed
          ELM's free trading common shares of Commerce and ELM sold these
          shares as designee for Commerce's benefit with Commerce receiving
          all of the proceeds.  For these share loans, Commerce has agreed to
          pay ELM interest at the rate of prime plus 3%, payable monthly with
          payment by issuing Commerce's restricted common shares based on
          these borrowed shares.  Commerce shares due to ELM.  Interest is
          also due and payable monthly with Commerce's restricted common
          shares for the shares pledged by ELM as collateral to others, all
          for the Company's best interest and benefit.  All share loans and
          interest are to be paid annually on or before March 31 of each of
          Commerce's fiscal years.  An accounting of the Commerce common

          and for certain continuous loans and/or pledges of ELM's securities

     e.   Open ended loan agreements

          Reference is made to four Director-approved, open-ended loan
          agreements dated June 20, 1988, October 14, 1988, May 17, 1989
          (Exhibits B, C and D of the April 12, 1993, confirmation letter) and
          April 1, 1990 (Exhibit 2 of the April 9, 1990 confirmation letter).

     f.   Misanse share ownership disclosure

          On October 23, 1993, in order to comply with the El Salvador
          Government's minimum capital requirements, the shareholders of
          Mineral San Sebastian S.A. de C.V. (Misanse) voted to increase
          Misanse's capitalization from 119,500 colones to 260,000 colones.
          This was accomplished via a shareholders' rights offering on the
          basis of purchasing one share for each share owned with the rights
          expiring on December 10, 1993.  According to Misanse's by-laws, the
          rights not exercised would be offered proportionately to the
          shareholders who did exercise their rights.

          In addition to the rights offering, the Misanse shareholders
          authorized the sale of 210 additional common shares to the
          following:  ten shares to each of the four officers/directors (40
          shares), five shares to each of the remaining six directors (30
          shares), three shares to each of the ten supplemental directors (30
          shares), (the President and the Secretary of the Company, who are
          directors of Misanse, had the right and they purchased ten and three
          shares respectively), and 110 shares were sold  to the Company over
          and above the amount of shares it was entitled to by the rights
          offering so that it would retain its 52% ownership after the
          issuance of the shares under the rights offering.  When the Company
          obtained the concession in 1987, it agreed with the El Salvador
          Ministry of Economy's office not to increase its 52% ownership of
          Misanse.  Therefore, after the rights offering, the Company owned
          approximately 52%.

<PAGE>

Mr. Edward L. Machulak
May 8, 2006
Page 6 of 15 Pages

          On the closing date of December 10, 1993 of this rights offering,
          there were 264 shares that were not subscribed and purchased.  The
          Company would have been entitled to purchase 137 shares (264 x 52%).
          However, the Company had been prohibited to purchase these shares as
          it would have exceeded its 52% ownership of Misanse shares.  The 137
          shares were acquired by ELM with prior approval of Commerce's
          directors.  He acquired an additional four shares by virtue of his
          proportionate ownership in the remaining unsold shares.  A Misanse
          Director-approved drawing was held to sell the unsubscribed shares.
          In order to close the sales, 52 shares were purchased by ELM which
          he agreed in writing to hold these shares in escrow for a period of
          one year for the purpose of providing certain named El Salvador
          Misanse shareholders time to obtain funds to purchase these shares
          at his cost.  None were purchased by the Misanse shareholders.

          During June 1995, ELM personally purchased an additional 264 Misanse
          common shares from a Misanse shareholder in an arms-length
          transaction.  Therefore ELM presently owns a total of 467 Misanse
          common shares or approximately 17.96% of the total 2,600 Misanse
          common shares issued and outstanding.

2.   Collateral Pledged

     The collateral specifically pledged to ELM or as otherwise noted is as
     follows:

     a.   A Collateral Pledge Agreement dated October 14, 1981 granted to ELM
          by Commerce pledging the following collateral:  2,002,037 shares of
          Sanseb common stock, par value $0.10 per share and 1,346 shares of
          Mineral San Sebastian, S.A. de C.V. common stock, par value one
          hundred colones ($11.43) per share.  The shares pledged are as
          follows:  the 618 shares originally owned by Commerce, and the 618
          shares plus 110 shares purchased from the October 23, 1993 Misanse
          rights offering.  Reference is made to Exhibit 4 included in the
          April 9, 1990 confirmation letter.

     b.   A Collateral Pledge Agreement dated February 24, 1983, by Commerce,
          SLE and UDI collectively and individually, pledging the following
          collateral:

          300 shares of no par value common shares of Homespan (formerly known
          as Trade Realty Co., Inc.), Certificate No. 7 dated January 21,
          1974, being 100% of its issued and outstanding shares.  Homespan and
          Commerce agree that no additional shares of Homespan will be issued
          as long as there are any obligations due to ELM; 1,800 shares of no
          par value (UDI) capital stock

          Certificate No. 17 dated September 15, 1972, representing 100% of
          the shares issued and outstanding.  UDI and Commerce agree that no
          additional shares of UDI will be issued as long as there are any
          outstanding obligations due to ELM.  Reference is made to Exhibit 5
          included in the April 9, 1990 confirmation letter.

     c.   Collateral Pledge Agreement dated July 13, 1983 granted to General

          Ecomm, individually and collectively, pledging the following
          collateral:

          One voting membership certificate of San Luis Valley Irrigation Well
          Owners, Inc., Membership Certificate No. 871, dated November 27,
          1979; Certificate No. 312, Membership No. 871, consisting of .001447
          units of Augmentation Plan Number One of San Luis Valley Irrigation
          Well Owners, Inc.  dated February 8, 1980;

          100 common shares of $0.10 par value, Piccadilly (now Ecomm),
          Certificate No. 1, dated July 23, 1974.  Ecomm and Commerce agree
          that no additional shares of Ecomm will be issued as long as there
          are any outstanding obligations due to ELM. Reference is made to
          Exhibit 6 included in the April 9, 1990 confirmation letter.

     d.   A Deed of Trust dated November 3, 1983 by and between Homespan, as
          party of the first part, and Ronald K. Carpenter, Esq. (Trustee), as
          party of the second part, for the benefit of ELM and GLSCO, as party
          of the third part.  The Deed of Trust is in favor of ELM and GLSCO
          and is open-ended to secure the promissory note(s) due to ELM and
          GLSCO and to further secure any future obligations that Commerce or
          Homespan may incur from them.  This Deed of Trust is issued to
          Ronald K. Carpenter, Esq., Trustee for the benefit of ELM and GLSCO
          and is a first lien on the 331-acre Standing Rock  Campground
          located in Camdenton, Missouri.  The Deed of Trust was recorded on
          November 5, 1984 in Camden County, Missouri at 1:24 p.m. in Book
          122, Page 200.  Reference is made to Exhibit 7 included in the April
          9, 1990 confirmation letter.  On August 14, 2000, with the
          Directors' approval, this property, via an agreement, was conveyed
          to GLSCO in consideration of the cancellation of $1,249,050 of debt
          owed to GLSCO and for other consideration contained in the said
          agreement.

     e.   Commerce/Sanseb Joint Venture (Joint Venture)

          Commerce and Sanseb agree that ELM (the other Lenders were included
          later) has as collateral, the assignment and pledge of all of their
          rights, titles, claims, remedies, and interest whatsoever in the
          Joint Venture which was formed on September 22, 1987.  In the event
          of default, whatever interest Commerce and Sanseb have in the Joint
          Venture will be transferred to ELM and it will include whatever
          assets are owned by the Joint Venture, including, but not limited to
          the precious metal ore reserves.  Reference is made to Exhibit C
          included in the April 8, 1991 confirmation letter.

     f.   Uniform Commercial Code Filing - all other specific assets

          Account (ELM RIRA) and the Sylvia Machulak Rollover Individual
          Retirement Account (SM RIRA) collectively and individually
          identified as the Lender(s), have been assigned on October 19, 1987,
          all of the rights, titles, claims, remedies and interest in the
          Joint Venture, and to the mine concession granted by the Government
          of El Salvador to Mineral San Sebastian, S.A. de C.V (Misanse) on
          July 23, 1987, and thereafter from time to time amended, and which
          Misanse then assigned to the Joint Venture on September 22, 1987.
          This collateral specifically includes, but is not limited to, all of
          the San Sebastian Gold Mine (SSGM) precious metal ore reserves.
          Commerce and the Joint Venture have the right to assign this and any

          included in the April 9, 1990 confirmation letter.

          The following collateral has been previously assigned to the Lenders
          pursuant to resolutions adopted by the Directors:

          (1) Commerce/Sanseb Joint Venture (Joint Venture)

              Both Commerce and San Sebastian Gold Mines, Inc. have assigned
              all of the rights, title, claims, remedies and interest that
              each has in the Joint Venture to the Lenders.  Reference is made

              On October 20, 2002, the Company applied for the New SSGM, which
              covers an area of 42 square kilometers and includes
              approximately 1.2306 square kilometers of the Renewed SSGM. The
              New SSGM is in the jurisdiction of the City of Santa Rosa de

              four years starting from the date following the notification of
              this resolution which was received on March 3, 2003.  The New

              may be extended for two two-year periods, or for a total of
              eight years.  Besides the San Sebastian Gold Mine,  three other
              formerly operative gold and silver mines known as the La Lola
              Mine, the Santa Lucia Mine, and the Tabanco Mine are included in
              the New SSGM and are being explored.  The Company has complied
              as required by filing its annual activity report and it paid the
              annual surface tax.  This concession had been assigned
              collectively to all of the Lenders named herein on May 12, 2003
              and the assignment was included in the May 12, 2003 confirmation
              agreement as Exhibit B.

          (3) Lease agreement by and between Mineral San Sebastian Sociedad
              Anomina de Capital Variable (Misanse) and Commerce dated January
              14, 2003

              The term of this lease agreement coincides with the term of the
              Renewed San Sebastian Gold Mine Exploitation Concession and
              consists of 1,470 acres owned by Misanse.  This lease agreement
              has been assigned to all of the Lenders named herein on May 12,
              2003 and the assignment was included in the May 12, 2003
              confirmation agreement as Exhibit B.

          (4) Renewed San Sebastian Gold Mine Exploitation Concession/License
              (Renewed SSGM) - approximately 1.2306 square kilometers (304
              acres), Department of La Union, El Salvador, Central America
              (pledged and assigned as collateral on May 10, 2004) Government
              of El Salvador Agreement No. 591.

              On September 6, 2002, at a meeting held with the El Salvadoran
              Minister of Economy and the DHM, it was agreed to submit an
              application for the Renewed SSGM for a 30-year term and to
              simultaneously cancel the concession obtained on July 23, 1987.
              On September 26, 2002, the Company filed this application.  On
              February 28, 2003 (received March 3, 2003) the DHM admitted to
              the receipt of the application and the Company proceeded to file
              public notices as required by Article 40 of the El Salvadoran
              Mining Law and its Reform (MLIR).  On April 16, 2003, the
              Company's El Salvadoran legal counsel filed with the DHM notice
              that it believed that it complied with the requirements of
              Article 40, and that there were no objections; and requested
              that the DHM make its inspection as required by MLIR Article 42.
              The Company then provided a bond which was required by the DHM
              to protect third parties against any damage caused from the
              mining operations, and it simultaneously paid the annual surface
              t ax.  On August 29, 2003 the Office of the Ministry of Economy
              formally presented the Company with the twenty-year Renewed SSGM
              which was dated August 18, 2003.  This Renewed SSGM replaces the
              collateral that the same parties held with the previous
              concession.  On May

          (7) Acknowledgment of collateral provided through May 8, 2006

              Commerce's Directors have on May 8, 2006 authorized and directed
              Commerce's Officers to assign all of the rights, titles, claims,
              remedies and interest in all of its assets that it has to GLSCO,
              ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA and SM, collectively and
              individually referred to as Lenders, as additional collateral
              for all of the outstanding loans and obligations as of March 31,
              2006, including all future advances of any kind.  Collateral
              that has been provided through May 8, 2006 is:

3.   Cross Pledge Collateral Agreement

     GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA and SM individually are entitled to
     specific collateral that has been pledged to them by Commerce, its
     subsidiaries, affiliates and the Joint Venture.  Upon default by
     Commerce, or its subsidiaries or affiliates or the Joint Venture, then
     GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA and SM have the first right to the
     proceeds from the specific collateral pledged to each of them.  Commerce,
     its subsidiaries, affiliates, and the Joint Venture also have
     cross-pledged the collateral without diminishing the rights of the
     specific collateral pledged to each of the following:  GLSCO, ELM, the
     ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA and SM.  The purpose and the intent of the cross
     pledge of collateral is to assure GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA,
     and SM, that each of them would be paid in full; thus, any excess
     collateral that would be available is for the purpose of satisfying any
     debts and obligations due to each of the named parties.  The formula to
     be used (after deduc ting the payments made from the specific collateral)
     is to total all of the debts due to GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA
     and SM, and then to divide this total debt into each individual debt to
     establish each individual's percentage of the outstanding debt due.  This
     percentage then will be multiplied by the total of the excess collateral
     to determine the amount of proceeds each party should receive from the
     excess collateral.  Then the amount due to each of them would be
     distributed accordingly.

4.   Cancellation of Inter-Company Debts Upon Default

     Since certain of the collateral specifically or collectively pledged to
     GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA and SM consists of the common stock
     of Homespan, Ecomm, Sanseb, SLE, Misanse, UDI and the interest in the
     ownership of the Joint Venture, Commerce agreed, upon default of the
     payment of principal or interest to any of the individual Lender(s)
     mentioned herein, that it will automatically cancel any inter-company
     debts owed to Commerce by any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries or
     affiliates

<PAGE>

Mr. Edward L. Machulak
May 8, 2006
Page 13 of 15 Pages

     or the Joint Venture at such time as any of the stock or Joint Venture
     ownership is transferred to the collateral holders as a result of default
     of any promissory note.

5.   Guarantors

     This agreement further confirms that Commerce and all of the following
     are guarantors to the obligations due to ELM and to the loans made by ELM
     to Commerce:  Joint Venture, Homespan, Ecomm, SLE, Sanseb and UDI.  They
     jointly and severally guarantee payment of the note(s) that they caused
     to be issued and also agree that these note(s) may be accelerated in
     accordance with the provisions contained in the agreement and/or any
     collateral or mortgages securing these notes.  Also, Commerce, all of its
     subsidiaries and the Joint Venture agree to the cross pledge of
     collateral for the benefit of GLSCO, ELM, the ELM RIRA, the SM RIRA, and
     SM.  Reference is made to Exhibit 12 included in the April 9, 1990
     confirmation letter.

6.   Re-Execution Agreement(s)

     In the event ELM deems that it is necessary or advisable for him to have
     Commerce re-execute any document(s) entered into, including, but not
     limited to the promissory note(s) or collateral agreement(s), Commerce
     will re-execute such document(s) reasonably required by ELM.  Commerce
     also acknowledges that Commerce may be liable to pay certain costs
     related to any of the transactions entered into with ELM.  If at a later
     date ELM determines that an error has been made in the payment of such
     costs to him then he may demand payment and Commerce does hereby agree to
     make such payment forthwith.  All requests for corrections of any errors
     and/or payment of costs shall be complied with by Commerce within seven
     (7) days of ELM's written request.   The failure of Commerce to comply
     with Commerce's obligation(s) hereunder shall constitute a default and
     shall entitle ELM to the remedies available for default under any
     provisions of the agreements including, but not limited to the promissory
     no te(s) and/or the collateral pledge agreement(s) and/or any other
     Commerce obligation(s).

7.   Omissions

     Commerce believes that it has included all of its obligations, monies due
     and has listed all of the collateral due to ELM, however, since these
     transactions have taken place over  a long period of time in which
     changes could have taken place, it is possible that inadvertently some
     item(s), particularly collateral, could have been omitted.  If that
     should prove to be a fact, then Commerce, the Joint Venture, Homespan,
     Ecomm, SLE, Sanseb, and UDI agree that those omissions of collateral, if
     any, are meant to be included as collateral under this confirmation
     agreement.

8.   Real Estate Ownership Adjacent to San Sebastian Gold Mine, Inc. (SSGM)

     Commerce acknowledges that ELM personally owns the real estate he
     purchased in January of 1988 which is adjacent to and bordering the north
     boundary line of the SSGM located in the Republic of El Salvador, Central
     America, and that Comseb is performing certain exploration and
     exploitation on this property.  These costs are to be payable by an
     offset to the amounts due to ELM.  Commerce also agrees to sell, assign
     and transfer at no cost to ELM, the exploration concession rights
     included in the New SSGM Exploration Concession/License rights granted by
     the GOES under Resolution No. 27 dated February 24, 2003 (delivered March
     3, 2003) and the exploitation rights granted by the GOES under Agreement
     No. 591 dated May 20, 2004 (delivered June 4, 2004) pertaining to this
     parcel of land.  (Reference is made to Exhibit B, "Concesion de
     Exploracio El Paraiso" - plat map that identifies the ELM (Macay) "92.13
     Hectareas," (more or less) in the April 13, 1998 confirmation letter).

                           RENEWED PROMISSORY NOTE


Borrower:  Commerce Group Corp.               Lender: Edward L. Machulak
           6001 North 91st Street                     903 West Green Tree Rd.
           Milwaukee, WI  53225                       Milwaukee, WI  53217

Principal Amount:        $9,698,412.44
Initial Rate:            2.000% + prime rate, but not less than 16.000%
Date of Renewed Note:    March 31, 2006

PROMISE TO PAY.  COMMERCE GROUP CORP. ("Borrower") promises to pay to EDWARD
L. MACHULAK ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of
America, the principal amount of Nine Million Six Hundred Ninety Eight
Thousand Four Hundred Twelve and 44/100 Dollars ($9,698,412.44), together with
interest, paid monthly, on the unpaid principal balance from March 31, 2006,
until paid in full.

PAYMENT.  This is an open-ended, secured, on-demand payment, renewed
promissory note.  Interest is to be paid monthly.  The Lender, at its
discretion, can add the monthly interest due to the principal balance.  Unless
otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first
to any accrued unpaid interest; and then to principal.  The annual interest
rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; 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 and the interest is payable monthly.
Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other
place as Lender may designate in writing.

VARIABLE INTEREST RATE.  The interest rate on this Note is subject to change
from time to time based on changes in the prime rate as quoted in the Wall
Street Journal plus two percent, but not less than sixteen percent per annum.
Borrower understands that Lender may make loans to the Borrower based on other
rates as well.  The prime rate as of this date is 7.750% per annum.  The
interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will
be at a rate of 2.000 percentage points over the prime rate, but not less than
16.000% per annum.  NOTICE:  Under no circumstances will the interest rate on
this Note be less than 16.000% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed
by applicable law.

PREPAYMENT.  Borrower 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 Borrower of Borrower's obligation to pay on demand,
the entire amount due.  Rather, any payment will reduce the principal balance
due.  Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full,"
"without recourse," or similar language.  If Borrower sends such a payment,
Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note,
and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender.
