 PROMISSORY NOTE  
  
 [Facility A Note] 
  

	 $6,600,834 
	 January 30, 2004 

  
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, after date, without grace, in the manner, on the dates and in the amounts so herein stipulated, the undersigned, EQUUS II
INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation, acting by and through its duly authorized officer (“Borrower”), PROMISES TO PAY TO THE ORDER OF BANC OF AMERICA STRATEGIC SOLUTIONS, INC. (“Lender”), in Houston, Harris County, Texas, the sum
of SIX MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($6,600,834.00) or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of advances made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Note, in lawful money of the United States of
America, which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, at the time of payment, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount from date until maturity at a rate equal to the Stated Rate (as defined in the Loan
Agreement described herein), not to exceed the maximum non-usurious interest rate permitted by applicable law from time to time in effect as such law may be interpreted, amended, revised, supplemented or enacted (“Maximum Rate”), provided
that if at any time the Stated Rate exceeds the Maximum Rate then interest hereon shall accrue at the Maximum Rate. In the event the Stated Rate subsequently decreases to a level which would be less than the Maximum Rate or if the Maximum Rate
applicable to this Note should subsequently be changed, then interest hereon shall accrue at a rate equal to the applicable Maximum Rate until the aggregate amount of interest so accrued equals the aggregate amount of interest which would have
accrued at the Stated Rate without regard to any usury limit, at which time interest hereon shall again accrue at the Stated Rate. This Note is payable as follows: 
  
 (i) accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the last day of each month; and (ii) the entire
balance of principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable on March 15, 2004. 
  
 It is agreed that time is of the essence of this agreement. In the event of default in the payment of any installment of principal or interest when due or in the event of any other default hereunder, Lender may
accelerate and declare this Note immediately due and payable without notice. Any failure to exercise this option shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of the right to exercise the same at any other time. 
  
 In the event of default in the making of any payment herein provided, either
of principal or interest, or in the event this Note is declared due, interest shall accrue at Prime Rate plus 6% not to exceed the Maximum Rate. 
  
 Borrower hereby agrees to pay all expenses incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, all of which shall become a part of the principal hereof,
if this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or if collected by suit or through any probate, bankruptcy or any other legal proceedings. 
  
 Interest charges will be calculated on amounts advanced hereunder on the actual number of days these amounts are outstanding on the basis of a 360-day
year, except for calculations of 
  

 1 

 the Maximum Rate which will be on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year, as is applicable. It is the intention of the
parties hereto to comply with all applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note, or in any of the documents securing payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, no such provision
shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. If any excess of interest in such respect is provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided for, in this Note or in any of the documents securing
payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, then in such event (1) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (2) neither Borrower, endorsers or guarantors, nor their heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns nor any other
party liable for the payment hereof, shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the Maximum Rate, (3) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then
unpaid principal amount hereof or refunded to Borrower, and (4) the provisions of this Note and any documents securing payment of this Note shall be automatically reformed so that the effective rate of interest shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate.
For the purpose of determining the Maximum Rate, all interest payments with respect to this Note shall be amortized, prorated and spread throughout the full term of the Note so that the effective rate of interest on account of this Note is uniform
throughout the term hereof. 
  
 Borrower agrees that the Maximum
Rate to be charged or collected pursuant to this Note shall be the applicable indicated rate ceiling as defined in the Texas Finance Code, as supplemented by Article ID.003 of the Texas Credit Title, provided that Lender may rely on other applicable
laws, including without limitation laws of the United States, for calculation of the Maximum Rate if the application thereof results in a greater Maximum Rate. Except as provided above, the provisions of this Note shall be governed by the laws of
the State of Texas. 
  
 Each maker, surety, guarantor and endorser
(i) waives demand, grace, notice, presentment for payment, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity hereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity hereof and protest, (ii) agrees that this Note and the liens securing its payment may be
renewed, and the time of payment extended from time to time, without notice and without releasing any of the foregoing, and (iii) agrees that without notice or consent from any maker, surety, guarantor, or endorser, Lender may release any collateral
which may from time to time be pledged to secure repayment of this Note, or may release any party who might be liable for this Note. Borrower grants to Lender a lien on any of Borrower’s funds which may from time to time be deposited with
Lender. 
  
 Borrower may prepay this Note, in whole or in part, at
any time prior to maturity without penalty, and interest shall cease on any amount prepaid. Any partial prepayment shall be applied toward the payment of the principal installments last maturing on the Note, that is, in the inverse order of
maturity, without reducing the amount or time of payment of the remaining installments. 
  
 The principal of this Note represents funds which Lender will advance to Borrower from time to time upon request of Borrower. Any part of the principal may be repaid by Borrower and thereafter reborrowed, provided the
outstanding principal amount of this Note shall never exceed the face amount of this Note. Each advance shall constitute a part of the principal hereof and shall bear interest from the date of the advance. The provisions of Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann.
art. 5069-15.01, et seq., as may be amended, shall not apply to this Note or to any of the security documents executed in connection with this Note.

Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated June 1, 1999 between Borrower and Lender, as that Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan
Agreement contains, among other things, provisions for the acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the occurrence of certain stated events. This Note is given in replacement and extension of that certain Revolving Note A of Borrower in favor of
Lender previously delivered pursuant to the Loan Agreement. The liens securing the payment of such prior Notes are not released but are hereby ratified and carried forward to secure this Note. 
  
 This Note is entitled to the benefits of and security afforded by the
Security Agreement-Pledge dated March 18, 1996 between Borrower and Lender, as that Security Agreement-Pledge may be ratified, amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. This Note is subject to the provisions contained in the foregoing
security instrument which, among other things, provides for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the occurrence of certain events. 
  
 This Note is given in renewal, decrease and extension, but not novation or discharge, of that certain promissory note dated November
    , 2003, executed by Borrower and payable to Lender in the amount of $10,000,000. The liens securing the payment of the prior promissory note are not released but are hereby ratified and hereby carried forward to secure
this Note. 
  
 Borrower represents and warrants that this loan is
for business, commercial, investment or similar purpose and not primarily for personal, family, household or agricultural use, as such terms are used in Chapter One of the Texas Credit Code.

 THIS LOAN AGREEMENT
(the “Loan Agreement”) will serve to set forth the terms of the financing transactions by and between EQUUS II INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and THE FROST NATIONAL BANK, a national banking
association (“Lender”): 
  
 1. Credit
Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Loan Agreement and the other agreements, instruments and documents evidencing, securing, governing, guaranteeing and/or pertaining to the Loan, as hereinafter defined
(collectively, together with the Loan Agreement, referred to hereinafter as the “Loan Documents”), Lender hereby agrees to provide to Borrower the credit facility described below (the “Credit Facility”): 

 
 Borrowing Base Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower, on a revolving basis from time to time during the period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the maturity date of the promissory note evidencing this Credit Facility from time to
time, such amounts as Borrower may request hereunder; provided, however, the total principal amount outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) an amount equal to the Borrowing Base (as such term is defined
hereinbelow),. or (ii) $6,500,000.00 (the “Borrowing Base Line of Credit”). If at any time the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Borrowing Base Line of Credit shall exceed an amount equal to the Borrowing Base,
Borrower agrees to immediately repay to Lender such excess amount, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder. The sums disbursed under the Borrowing
Base Line of Credit (each of such disbursements being hereinafter called an “Advance”) shall be used for working capital and operating expenses. 
  
 As used in this Loan Agreement, the term “Borrowing Base” shall mean an amount equal to 10% of
Borrower’s Eligible Portfolio Value (hereinafter defined). 

 As used herein the term “Eligible Portfolio Value” shall mean, at any time, the difference
between Borrower’s Portfolio Value (hereinafter defined) and Borrower’s Ineligible Investments (hereinafter defined). The term “Portfolio Value” shall mean the value, as reflected on the then most current Investment History and
Portfolio Valuation Report (hereinafter defined) prepared and presented to Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 10(c) of this Loan Agreement, of the Collateral (hereinafter defined). The term “Ineligible Investments” means
any portion of the Collateral which represents an investment by Borrower in a company or other entity which is in bankruptcy or which is in default under any loan to such company or other entity and as to which loan (i) all cure periods have expired
and (ii) no written waivers of such default have been issued by the lender under such loan. The sale or other disposition by Borrower of any portion of the Collateral shall result in an immediate reduction in Eligible Portfolio Value, which
reduction shall be equal to the value assigned to such sold or disposed of Collateral in the then most current Investment History and Portfolio Valuation Report (hereinafter defined) prepared and presented to Lender in accordance with the provisions
of Section 10(c) of this Loan Agreement. Borrower shall be permitted to increase or decrease the Eligible Portfolio Value, by the addition or deletion of Collateral, provided that at the time Borrower elects to delete Collateral, (i) no Event of
Default exists and (ii) such deletion does not cause the then outstanding principal balance of the Note to exceed the Borrowing Base, as the Borrowing Base will exist after the deletion of such Collateral. 
  
 All Advances under the Credit Facility shall be collectively called the
“Loan”. Lender reserves the right to require Borrower to give Lender not less than one (1) business day prior notice of each requested Advance under the Credit Facility, specifying (i) the aggregate amount of such requested Advance,
(ii) the requested date of such Advance, and (iii) the purpose for such Advance, with such Advances to be requested in a form satisfactory to Lender. 
  
 2. Promissory Note. The Credit Facility shall be evidenced by one promissory note (together with any renewals, extensions and increases
thereof, the “Note”) duly executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Lender, in form and substance acceptable to Lender. Interest on the Note shall accrue at the rate set forth therein. The principal of and interest on the
Note shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Note and in this Loan Agreement. 
  
 (a) Collateral. As collateral and security for the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and any and all other indebtedness or
obligations from time to time owing by Borrower to Lender, Borrower shall grant, and hereby grants, to Lender, its successors and assigns, a first and prior lien and security interest in and to the property described hereinbelow, together with any
and all PRODUCTS AND PROCEEDS thereof (the “Collateral”): 
  
 any and all investment property, instruments, chattel paper and general intangibles owned by Borrower from time to time, including all notes receivable, common and preferred stock, stock options, warrants, and other
investments which at any given time are included in Borrower’s computation of Net Asset Value (hereinafter defined) (hereinafter collectively called the “Pledged Securities”) which Pledged Securities include, 
  

 - 2 - 

 without limitation, those items listed on Schedule 1 to the Pledge and Security Agreement of even date
herewith entered into by Lender and Borrower; however neither the Collateral, nor Borrower’s Net Asset Value, shall include any of the foregoing items which are held from time to time in Account Number VB 01383 98 maintained by Borrower with
UBS Financial Services, Inc. or in Account Number Z42-496693 maintained by Borrower with Fidelity Investments. “Collateral” as used in this Loan Agreement, includes the Pledged Securities and, without limitation, (1) all money this
day delivered to and deposited with Lender, and all money heretofore delivered or which shall hereafter be delivered to or come into the possession, custody or control of Lender representing proceeds of, payment on, or distributions related to any
of the Pledged Securities during the existence of this Loan Agreement, and whether held in a general or special account, together with (2) any stock rights, rights to subscribe, liquidating dividends, stock dividends, property, cash distributions,
dividends paid in stock, new securities, cash dividends or other property which Borrower may hereafter become entitled to receive on account of the Collateral and (3) all Borrower’s rights, title and interest in that certain custody account
(Account No. 1000308) maintained with Lender, (4) all certificates, instruments, records, data and/or other documents evidencing the foregoing and following (including without limitation, any computer software on which such records and data may be
located), (5) all renewals, replacements and substitutions of all of the foregoing, (6) all Additional Property (as hereinafter defined), and (7) all PRODUCTS and PROCEEDS of all of the foregoing. The designation of proceeds does not authorize
Borrower to sell, transfer or otherwise convey any of the foregoing property. The delivery at any time by Borrower to Lender of any property as a pledge to secure payment or performance of any indebtedness or obligation whatsoever shall also
constitute a pledge of such property as Collateral hereunder. 
  
 The term
“Collateral” shall also include all records and data relating to any of the foregoing (including, without limitation, any computer software on which such records and data may be located). Borrower agrees to execute such security
agreements, assignments, and other agreements and documents as Lender shall deem appropriate and otherwise require from time to time to more fully create and perfect Lender’s lien and security interests in the Collateral. 
  

 - 3 - 

 3. Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby represents and warrants, and upon each
request for an Advance under the Credit Facility further represents and warrants, to Lender as follows: 
  
 (a) Existence. Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, is duly
qualified and in good standing under the laws of all other states where it is doing business, and has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Loan Documents. 
  
 (b) Binding Obligations. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Loan Agreement and all of the other Loan
Documents by Borrower have been duly authorized by all necessary action by Borrower, and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by Bankruptcy, insolvency
or similar laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights and except to the extent specific remedies may generally be limited by equitable principles. 
  
 (c) No Consent. The execution, delivery and performance of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not (i) conflict with, result in a violation of, or constitute a default under (A) any provision of its articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws, if Borrower is a
corporation, or any agreement or other instrument binding upon Borrower, or (B) any law, governmental regulation, court decree or order applicable to Borrower, or (ii) require the consent, approval or authorization of any third party. 
  
 (d) Financial Condition. Each financial statement of Borrower supplied
to the Lender truly discloses and fairly presents Borrower’s financial condition as of the date of each such statement. There has been no material adverse change in such financial condition or results of operations of Borrower subsequent to the
date of the most recent financial statement supplied to Lender. 
  
 (e) Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings, pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or the properties of Borrower, before any court or governmental department, commission or
board, which, if determined adversely to Borrower, would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, properties, or operations of Borrower. 
  
 (f) Taxes; Governmental Charges. Borrower has filed all federal, state and local tax reports and returns required by any law or regulation to be
filed by it and has either duly paid all taxes, duties and charges indicated due on the basis of such returns and reports, or made adequate provision for the payment thereof, and the assessment of any material amount of additional taxes in excess of
those paid and reported is not reasonably expected. 
  
 4.
Conditions Precedent to Advances and Fees. 
  
 (a) Conditions Precedent to Initial Advance. Lender’s obligation to make the initial Advance under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be subject to the conditions precedent that,
as of the date of such initial Advance (i) Borrower shall have executed and delivered to Lender the Loan Documents, (ii) Borrower shall have provided evidence satisfactory to Lender that the execution and 
  

 - 4 - 

 delivery of the Loan Documents by Borrower was duly authorized by Borrower’s board of directors,
(iii) Borrower shall have delivered to Lender the originals of all stock certificates, promissory notes, warrants and other certificates evidencing the Collateral together with such stock powers executed in blank (and with Borrower’s signature
thereon guaranteed) and endorsements as Lender may require, and (iv) Borrower shall have requested and obtained from Borrower’s counsel an opinion letter, addressed to Lender, covering, among other things, the organization, existence, and
authorization of Borrower and its representatives, the due execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the validity and enforceability of the Loan Documents, and such other matters as Lender may reasonably request. 
  
 (b) Conditions Precedent to All Advances.
Lender’s obligation to make any Advance under this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be subject to the conditions precedent that, as of the date of such Advance and after giving effect thereto (i) all representations and
warranties made to Lender in this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct, as of and as if made on such date, (ii) no material adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower since the effective date of the most
recent financial statements furnished to Lender by Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the requested Advance, which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
constitute an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), and (iv) Lender’s receipt of all Loan Documents appropriately executed by Borrower and all other proper parties. 
  
 (c) Credit Facility Fee. In consideration of Lender’s agreeing to enter into this
Loan Agreement and make the Credit Facility available to Borrower, upon the execution of the Loan Documents Borrower agrees to pay a Credit Facility Fee to Lender in the amount of $65,000.00. 
  
 (d) Unused Fees. Borrower acknowledges
that Lender will be required to hold funds available for Advances to Borrower under the terms of this Loan Agreement even if Borrower does not elect to make borrowings under the Credit Facility. In consideration of Lender’s holding the
availability of such unborrowed funds Borrower agrees to pay to Lender, on a quarterly basis on the same date that interest is due and payable under the Note, an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to one-quarter of one percent ( 1/4%) per annum, computed on a per annum basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed,

privilege. No waiver of any provision in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and no departure by Borrower therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. No modification or amendment to this Loan Agreement or to any of the other Loan Documents shall be valid or effective unless the same is signed
