4. LAWFUL RATE OF INTEREST: It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the
intent of The Borrower and Holder at all times to comply with applicable state
law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits
Holder to contract for, charge, or receive a greater amount of interest than
under state law) and that this section shall control every other covenant and
agreement in this Note. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever
judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this
Note or received with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or if
Holder's exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of this Note, results
in The Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by
applicable law, then it is The Borrower's and Holder's express intent that all
excess amounts theretofore collected by Holder be credited on the principal
balance of this Note (or, if this Note has been or would thereby be paid in
full, refunded to The Borrower), and the provisions of this Note immediately be
deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and there under
reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to
comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest
amount otherwise called for hereunder and there under.

5. PREPAYMENT: The Borrower may prepay this Note at any time, in whole or in
part, provided Borrower has issued the Warrants to Holder.

6. SEVERABLE PROVISIONS: Every provision of this Note is intended to be
severable. If any term or provision hereof is declared by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever,
such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the balance of
the terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain binding
and enforceable.

7. TIME OF ESSENCE: Time is of the essence of this Note and the performance of
each of the covenants and agreements contained herein.

8. GOVERNING LAW: This note shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Illinois. In the event of any dispute regarding
the subject matter of this Note, such dispute shall be submitted to arbitration
before a single arbitrator in the city of Chicago in accordance with the rules
of the American Arbitration Association. Any decision or award shall be final
and binding upon the parties hereto. All legal fees, arbitration fees, filing
fees, collection fees and expenses shall be paid to the prevailing party by the
losing party.
