   PROMISE TO
PAY. XLNT VETERINARY CARE, Inc. (“Borrower”)
promises to pay to  HUNTINGTON CAPITAL, L.P. (“Lender”), or order, in
lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of  One Million
Four Hundred   Thousand Dollars ($1,400,000.00), together
with interest at the rate of 12.000% per annum on the unpaid principal balance from the date of each advance, until paid in
full.

   PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in sixty (60 payments.
Commencing December 1, 2005, and continuing on the first day of each month after that, Borrower will pay forty-two (42)
regular monthly payments of accrued, unpaid interest. Commencing June 1,
2009, and continuing on the first day of each month after that, Borrower will
pay seventeen (17) monthly payments of
accrued, unpaid interest, plus principal in the sum of Nineteen Thousand Four
Hundred Forty-four Dollars
($19,444.00). Borrower’s final payment will be due November 1, 2010 and 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 principal, and any
remaining amount to any unpaid collection costs and late charges. Interest on this Note is computed on a 30/360 simple interest
basis; that is, with the exception of odd days in the first payment period,
monthly interest is calculated by applying the ratio of the annual interest
rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by a month of 30 days.
Interest for the odd days is calculated on the basis of the actual days to the next full month and a 360-day
year. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in
writing.

   PREPAYMENT FEE; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges
are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be
subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or
as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. This Note may not
be prepaid in the first two years from the Date of the Note.
Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a Prepayment Charge as
described below. The Prepayment Charge, if any, shall be due in
the event of voluntary or involuntary prepayment in full or in part, whether
due to acceleration by the Lender or otherwise. If for
any reason there is a prepayment of the Note within two years of the loan term,
the Prepayment Charge is three percent (3%) of the principal amount of the
repayment plus the amount of interest that would accrue
on the principal amount of the repayment for twenty-four months less the
interest actually paid. The Prepayment Charge shall
be three percent (3.0%) of the principal amount of the prepayment during the
third year of the loan term. There shall be no Prepayment
Charge after the third year of the loan term. Partial prepayment is subject to the Prepayment Charge. The Prepayment Charge shall be
payable at the
time of prepayment and is in addition to accrued interest. Borrower’s initials _______ Commencing three years after the Date of the Note,
Borrower may pay all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due
without penalty. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower’s
obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal
balance due and may result in Borrower’s making fewer payments. 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.

   LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or
more late, and without waiving any events of default, Borrower will be charged 2.000% of
the regularly scheduled payment or $50.00, whichever is greater.

   INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon Borrower’s failure to
pay all amounts declared due pursuant to this section, including failure
to pay upon final maturity, and in addition to any Late Charge, Lender, at its
option, may, if permitted under applicable
law, increase the interest rate on this Note to 17.50% per annum, effective as
of the date of the breach or default.
Subject to any right of Lender to increase the interest rate on this Note in
the event of a breach or other default,
the interest rate will continue at the stated Note rate.

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

INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon Borrower's failure to pay all amounts declared due pursuant to this section,
including failure to pay upon final maturity, and in addition to any Late Charge, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable law, increase the interest rate on this Note to 17.50%
per annum, effective as of the date of the breach or default. Subject to any right of Lender to increase the interest rate on this Note in the event of a breach or other default, the interest rate
will continue at the stated Note rate.

 

VOLUNTARY CONVERSION. All or part of the outstanding principal, and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of such conversion, of this Note may be converted at any time or from time to time prior to the Maturity
Date, at the option of the Holder, into shares of Common Stock of the Borrower, $.0001 par value, at a conversion price per share equal to Two Dollars and Eighty Cents ($2.80) (the “Conversion Price”) by delivering a notice of such
conversion (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Borrower along with the original of this Note. To receive a certificate representing the shares of Common Stock into which the original of this Note shall be converted pursuant to this Section,
the Lender shall surrender the original of this Note accompanied by a Conversion Notice to the Borrower at its principal executive office set forth above. The Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, but not later than fifteen (15) business days
after the date of receipt of this Note accompanied by a Conversion Notice, issue and deliver to a location in the United States designated by the Lender a certificate for the number of shares of the Borrower's Common Stock to which the
Lender shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the date of the Conversion Notice if conversion (the “Conversion Date”), and the Lender shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such
shares of Common Stock as of such Conversion Date. If the Lender elects to convert part, but not all, of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest, then together with a stock certificate evidencing the applicable number
of shares of Common Stock, the Borrower shall also issue a replacement Note with a principal amount equal to the principal amount not converted by the Lender into Common Stock. The Borrower shall not be required to issue fractions
of shares upon conversion. If any fraction of a share would, but for this provision, be issuable upon any conversion, in lieu of such fractional share, Lender shall, upon delivery of a certificate representing the shares into which this Note shall

shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. In the event that the Company consummates an equity or convertible debt financing in which the proceeds of such financing will be used to prepay the entire outstanding principal balance and accured interest
on this Note and the price per share or a conversion price, as the case may be, pursuant to such financing is equal to (i) if such financing is consummated at any time during the first six (6) months of the loan term, $2.40 or less; (ii) if such
financing is consummated at any time during the second six (6) months of the loan term, $2.60 or less; or (iii) if such financing is consummated at any time during the second year of the loan term, $2.80 or less (each a “Payoff Financing”),
then the Lender shall have an option, for a period of fifteen (15) calendar days from Lender's receipt of written notice by the Borrower of any such Payoff financing, to elect to participate directly in such Payoff Financing up to an aggregate
investment amount of the original principal balance of this Note. The Lender may exercise such option by notifying the Borrower in writing before the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period as to the number of shares or aggregate principal
amount of debt, as the case may be, it wishes to purchase and delivering by check or wire transfer of the purchase price of such investment, as offset by the prepayment amount paid to Lender from the proceeds of the Payoff Financing. In
connection with the Lender's participation in any such Payoff Financing, the Lender hereby agrees to execute and deliver to Borrower any and all documents evidencing Lender's investment, including, without limitation, subscription
documents relating to the applicable Payoff Financing. To the extent Lender has not exercised its right to participate in such Payoff Financing within the foregoing time period. this right of first refusal shall terminate with respect to such
Payoff Financing and shall be null and void.
