Such interest shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period or, with RBUS's prior written consent, monthly in arrears on the last Business Day of each month and, in each case, at maturity (whether on demand, by acceleration or otherwise); provided that if any Interest Period in respect of a Loan is longer than three months, such interest prior to maturity shall be paid on the last Business Day of each three-month interval within such Interest Period as well as on the last day of such Interest Period. 

*Material omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment.  An unredacted version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Notwithstanding the  preceding paragraph, the  Borrower shall also pay interest at a rate per annum which shall be the greater of (A)         __%* in excess of the Base Lending Rate from time to time in effect, or (B)    %* in excess of the rate which would otherwise be applicable pursuant to the terms hereof, on any principal of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, on any interest or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder which shall not be paid in full when due (whether on demand, by acceleration or otherwise)from such due date until paid in full (after as well as  before judgment), such interest to be payable on demand.

All interest shall be computed on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed in a 360-day year.

If the Base Lending Rate shall be determined at any time by  reference to the  COF  Rate, RBUS shall  notify the Borrower by telephone, email or any other means promptly after determining the COF Rate (the "COF Notice"), In the event that the Borrower shall dispute such
COF Rate, the Borrower shall deliver to RBUS a notice of dispute (the "Dispute Notice") within 5 days after Borrower receives the COF Notice, and RBUS shall deliver to the Borrower within 10 days thereafter copies of quotations received by  RBUS reflecting RBUS's cost of funds or copies of the written  communications from its affiliate establishing RBUS's cost of funds, as applicable.  If the Borrower shall not deliver a Dispute Notice within such 5 day period set forth above, the Borrower shall automatically, without further action, irrevocably and unconditionally waive and release any right to challenge or dispute the  cost of funds set forth in the applicable COF Notice, and such cost of funds shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

If any such dispute shall exist and shall not have been resolved, the  Borrower acknowledges that  RBUS  may demand immediate payment of the Loans, without limiting RBUS's right to demand payment of the Loans at any time for any reason.

Definitions.

The term  "Interest  Period,"  when  used with  respect  to any Loan, means  (I) Initially, the period commencing   on the date of  such  Loan,  and  (ii)  thereafter, each of the successive periods occurring while such Loan is outstanding, with such successive periods commencing on the same day as the last day of the immediately preceding period.

	3.a. 
	one of  the  periods specified as  Available Interest Periods In Section 1, as selected by the Borrower not later than  11:00 A.M.  (New York time) three Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, or

3.b.  absent a timely selection by the Borrower,the shortest of the periods specified as Available Interest Periods In Section 1.

The duration of an Interest Period commencing on or after the  due  date  for  full  payment  hereunder (whether on demand, by acceleration or otherwise) shall be such period as RBUS may reasonably select. Any Interest Period which would otherwise expire on a day other than a Business Day shall be (i) extended to the next following Business Day or (ii) if the next following Business Day Is In a new calendar month, shortened to  the  next preceding Business Day, unless such day is the first day of such Interest Period in which case clause (i) shall apply. Any Interest Period of one month or more that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of a calendar month.  The Interest Period for any  Loan shall  not extend past the maturity date for such Loan.

The term "Quoted Rate," when used with respect to  an Interest Period for any Loan, means the quotient of (i) the interest rate reported on Reuters Screen LlBOR01 Page (or such other page.as may replace Reuters Screen LlBOR01
Page on the Reuters Service) on or about 11:00 A.M. (New York or London time, as the case may be) two Business Days prior to such Interest Period for U.S. dollar deposits of an amount comparable to the principal balance of such Loan and for a.period comparable to such Interest Period, divided by  (iI) one  minus the  Reserve Percentage.   For purposes of this definition, (a) "Reserve Percentage" shall mean with respect to any Interest Period, the percentage which is in effect on the first day of such Interest Period under Regulation 0 as the maximum reserve requirement for member banks of the Federal Reserve System in New York City with deposits comparable in amount to those of JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (or any successor, the "Bank") against Euro currency Liabilities.  The Quoted Rate for the applicable period shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective dale of any change in the applicable Reserve  Percentage;  (b) "Regulation  D"   shall   mean Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as it may be amended from time to time; and (c) "Euro currency Liabilities" has the meaning assigned to that term in Regulation D, as in effect from time to time.

The term "Base Lending Rate" means, for any day, the higher of (i) the rate announced by the Bank from time to time at its principal office in New York, New York as its prime rate or base rate for domestic (United States) commercial loans in effect on such day, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2% and (iii) the COF Rate. (Such Base Lending Rate is not necessarily intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged by the Bank or RBUS in connection with extensions of credit.) Each change in the Base Lending Rate shall result in a corresponding change in the interest rate and such change shall be effective on the effective date of such change in the Base Lending Rate. 

The term "Federal Funds Rate" means, for any day, the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers, as published on the next succeeding New York Business Day by the Federal Reserve of New York, or if such rates are not so published for any day which is a New York Business Day, the average of the quotations for such day on overnight federal funds transactions received by RBUS or the Bank from three federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by RBUS or the bank. 

The term "COF Rate" means a rate per annum equal to RBUS's overnight cost of funds rate using such funding sources (including, without  limitation, RBUS's  affiliated banks and companies) as RBUS shall determine from time to time in its sole discretion.

	ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS

If any change in any present or future law or regulation, or in the interpretation or administration thereof, subjects RBUS to any tax, imposes or modifies any reserve requirement against the assets of, liabilities of or loans by RBUS or imposes on RBUS any other conditions, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to RBUS of maintaining or funding the principal amount of any Loan evidenced hereby or to reduce any amount which would otherwise be received-by RBUS hereunder, the Borrower shall pay to RBUS, on demand, such additional amount as shall compensate RBUS for such increased cost or reduction in amount. The agreements of the Borrower in this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the repayment of all Liabilities to RBUS.

In the event that on any date on which the Quoted Rate is to be determined with respect to an Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan:  (i) RBUS determines that advances or other funding in dollars in the  principal amount of  the Eurodollar Loan to which such Interest Period applies are not being offered to  RBUS in the interbank Eurodollar market or from another funding source, as the case may be, for the applicable Interest Period or (ii) the Quoted Rate does not  accurately reflect the cost  of RBUS of maintaining or funding the principal amount thereof, then the affected Eurodollar Loan shall, on receipt of notice from RBUS of such circumstances, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest determined by RBUS, such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error, to be the Margin plus its cost of funding the Eurodollar Loan using sources selected by it or, if RBUS so elects In its sale discretion, at the ease Lending Rate  plus     %*.

If the effect of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any request or directive of any governmental authority, is to make It unlawful or impracticable for RBUS to maintain or fund the principal amount of any  Loan evidenced hereby, then the affected Loan shall, on receipt by the undersigned of notice from RBUS of such circumstances, bear  interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest determined by RBUS, such determination  to be conclusive absent manifest  error, to be the Margin plus its cost of funding the Loan using sources selected by it or,  if RBUS so elects in its sole discretion, the Base Lending Rate plus    %*.

		
	5.
	PREPAYMENTS

The Borrower agrees that it shall  have  no right to repay  all or any portion  of a Loan except on the last day of an Interest Period  applicable to such Loan, and then only if RBUS has received written notice of such repayment not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) three Business Days prior to such repayment; any such notice shall be irrevocable. All partial repayments shall be in an amount not less than the Minimum Repayment Amount.  All repayments pursuant to this paragraph shall be accompanied by the payment of all accrued interest on the principal amount so paid.

THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS  OF LAW), BUT THIS SHALL NOT LIMIT THE RATE OF INTEREST WHICH MAY BE CHARGED BY RBUS UNDER OTHER APPLICABLE LAW.

The Borrower hereby agrees that ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE BORROWER WITH RESPECT TO THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE  UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK as RBUS may elect, and, by execution and delivery hereof, the Borrower accepts and consents  to, for itself and in respect to its property,  generally  and unconditionally,  the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that such jurisdiction shall be exclusive, unless waived by RBUS in writing, with respect to any action or proceeding  brought by it  against RBUS and  any  questions  relating to  usury. Nothing herein shall  limit  the  right  of  RBUS to  bring proceedings against the Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Service of process out of any such courts may be made by personal delivery or mailing copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at  its  address for  notices as  specified herein and  will become effective 5 days after such mailing.

THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL   INDUCEMENT FOR RBUS MAKING THE LOANS TO THE BORROWER.

Nothing  contained in this Note shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest in excess of the maximum rate  permitted by applicable law (the  "Maximum Rate"). If the amount of interest payable for any interest payment period ending on any   interest payment date calculated in accordance with the provisions of this Note (said amount, the "Calculated Interest") exceeds the amount of interest that would be payable for such interest payment period had interest for such interest payment period been calculated  at the Maximum Rate, there shall be paid on such Interest payment date an amount of interest calculated on the basis of the   Maximum    Rate for such interest payment period. If on any subsequent interest payment date, (i) the Calculated Interest for the interest payment    period ending on such subsequent interest payment date (the "Current Interest Period") is less than the amount  of  Interest  that would  be payable for such Current Interest Period had interest  for such Current Interest  Period been  calculated  on the basis of the  Maximum Rate and (ii) any portion of the excess (if any) of Calculated Interest  for any prior  interest payment  period over interest  calculated at the Maximum Rate for such prior interest payment period (the  "Outstanding Interest Amount")  remains unpaid, then on  such subsequent interest payment date there shall be paid, as provided herein, additional interest for such Current Interest Period in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the theretofore  unpaid Outstanding Interest Amounts for all prior interest payment  periods or (ii) an amount  that, when added to the  amount of Calculated Interest payable for such Current Interest Period, results in the  payment of interest for such Current Interest Period at the Maximum Rate.

Any demand or notice, if made or given, shall be sufficiently made upon or given to the Borrower if left at or mailed to the last address  of the Borrower known to RBUS or if made or given in any other manner reasonably calculated to come to the attention of Borrower or the  successors or assigns of Borrower, whether or not in fact received by them respectively.

RBUS may assign and transfer this Note to any other person, firm or corporation and may deliver and repledge the collateral security     delivered in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or any part  thereof,  to the assignee or transferee of this Note, who shall  thereupon become vested with all the powers and rights above given to RBUS in respect thereof, and RBUS shall thereafter be forever     released and discharged of and  from all responsibility or liability to Borrower for or on account of the collateral security so delivered.

No delay on the part of the holder hereof in exercising any of its optiOns,powers or rights, or partial or single exercise thereof, shall constitute a waiver thereof.  The options, powers and rights of the holder hereof specified herein are in addition to those otherwise created. Demand of payment of this Note shall be sufficiently made upon the Borrower by written, telex, telegraphic or telephonic notice given by or on behalf of the holder to the Borrower at its last known address.

The Borrower jointly and  severally promises to pay all expenses(including,without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements and other professional fees and settlement costs) of any nature as soon as incurred whether in or out of court and whether incurred before or after this Note shall become due on demand, upon acceleration at its maturity date or otherwise and costs which RBUS may deem necessary or proper in connection with the satisfaction of the Liabilities or the administration, supervision,preservation, protection or enforcement of this Note. The agreements of the Borrower in this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the repayment of all Liabilities to RBUS.

The Borrower shall defend, Indemnify and hold harmless RBUS, its directors, officers, agents, employees, participants and assignees, from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, causes of action, debts, liabilities, damages, losses, obligations, charges, judgments  and expenses, including attorneys fees and costs of any nature whatsoever, in  any way relating to  or arising from the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document(s), any liabilities of the Borrower and/or any loss, damage or injury resulting from  any hazardous material; provided that the foregoing indemnification shall not extend to liabilities, damages, losses, obligations, judgments and expenses to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of RBUS as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnification provision shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the repayment of all Liabilities to RBUS.

The Borrower agrees to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or  hereafter determined by RBUS to be payable in connection with this Note or the other Loan Documents or the transactions pursuant to or in connection herewith and therewith, and the Borrower agrees to save RBUS harmless from and against any and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or
impositions.

No change, modification, termination, waiver or discharge, in whole or in part, of this Note shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom such change, modification,termination, waiver or discharge is sought to be enforced.

If any provision hereof is invalid and unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then, to  the fullest extent permitted by  law, (i) the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of RBUS in order to carry out the intentions of this Note as nearly as may be possible, and (Ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

NO CLAIM MAY BE MADE BY THE BORROWER AGAINST  RBUS OR THE  AFFILIATES,  DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,  EMPLOYEES, ATIORNEYS   OR AGENTS OF RBUS FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR, TO THE  FULLEST EXTENT PERMITIED   BY LAW,  FOR ANY  PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM OR  CAUSE OF  ACTION   (WHETHER  BASED   ON   CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTORY LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER GROUND) BASED ON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS NOTE, THE LIABILITIES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR ANY ACT, OMISSION OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES,  RELEASES AND AGREES  NEVER TO   SUE   UPON   ANY   CLAIM   FOR   ANY   SUCH DAMAGES, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM NOW EXISTS OR HEREAFTER ARISES AND WHETHER OR NOT IT IS NOW KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR.

RBUS hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow RBUS to identify the Borrower In accordance with the terms of the Patriot Act.
