Amount: $350,000.00                           Dated: October 1, 2001

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, LIGHTHOUSE FAST FERRY, INC., a New Jersey corporation,
and FAST FERRY I CORP. and FAST FERRY II CORP., New York corporations, located
at 195 Fairfield Avenue, Suite 3C, West Caldwell, New Jersey 07006 (the
"Borrowers"), promise to pay to the order of JAMES R. SOLAKIAN (the "Lender"),
152 Mockingbird Court, Three Bridges, New Jersey 08887, or at such other place
as the Lender may direct, THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND ($350,000.00)
DOLLARS, together with interest, as hereinafter provided.

1.   TERM LOAN.  This Note evidences a term loan in the amount of Three Hundred
     ---------
     and Fifty Thousand ($350,000.00) Dollars (the "Term Loan"), made pursuant
     to the terms and provisions of a certain Loan and Security Agreement dated
     as of the date hereof between the Lender and the Borrowers (the "Loan
     Agreement"). All defined terms used herein and not defined herein shall
     have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Loan Agreement.

2.   INTEREST RATE.  The Borrowers shall pay the Lender interest on the unpaid
     -------------
     principal balance of the Term Loan from the date of this Note at the rate
     of eighteen (18%) percent per annum (calculated on the actual number of
     days elapsed over a 360-day year). Interest will be calculated on the basis
     of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days in each interest
     period. In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum
     rate allowed by law.

3.   TERM.  This Note shall mature on April 1, 2002 (the "Maturity Date").
     ----

4.   PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.  Principal and interest shall be due
     ----------------------------------
     and payable by the Borrowers in monthly installments in the respective
     amounts and the times as set forth in Schedule "A" attached hereto and made
     a part hereof. Payments of principal and interest shall commence to be paid
     by the Borrowers on November 1, 2001, and on the first (1/st/) day of each
     succeeding calendar month thereafter until the Maturity
<PAGE>

    Date, when the entire remaining unpaid amount of accrued interest and
    principal outstanding is due. All payments shall be applied first to
    interest and then to unpaid principal.

5.  PREPAYMENT.  Borrowers may prepay the Term Loan only after January 31, 2001
    ----------
    and upon at least three (3) business days' prior written notice to Lender
    (which notice shall be irrevocable). Lender shall be entitled to receive
    one-half (1/2) of the interest which would have been payable had there been
    no prepayment.

6.  LATE FEE.  If the entire amount of any of the aforesaid monthly payments of
    --------
    principal or interest or any sum required to be paid under the terms of this
    Note is not paid within ten (10) days when due, the Lender, at his option,
    and in additional to any other remedies available to him, may charge the
    Borrowers a e fee" of three (3%) percent of the entire amount of each such
    unpaid monthly payment and/or sum (the "Late Fee"), to reimburse the Lender
    for the extra expense involved in handling delinquent payments. The
    Borrowers acknowledge that (a) the Late Fee is a material inducement to the
    Lender to make the Term Loan; (b) the Lender would not have made the Term
    Loan in the absence of the agreement of the Borrowers to pay the Late Fee;
    (c) such Late Fee represents compensation to the Lender for the increased
    risk to the Lender that this Note will not be repaid by the Borrowers; and
    (d) the Late Fee is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of
    (i) the cost to the Lender in allocating his resources (both personal and
    financial) to the ongoing review, monitoring, administration and collection
    of this Note and (ii) compensation to the Lender for losses resulting from
    the Borrower's default that are difficult to ascertain.

7.  COLLATERAL AND GUARANTIES.  Payment of this Note is secured by the Loan
    -------------------------
    Agreement and the other Loan Documents described therein.

8.  DEFAULT.  The Borrowers shall be in default under this Note upon the
    -------
    occurrence of any of the following events (each an "Event of Default"):

                                       2
<PAGE>

a.  Failure to make any payment required under this Note on the Maturity Date or
    on the due date of any other payment, which failure remains unremedied ten
    (10) days after written notice thereof shall have been given to Borrowers;
    or

b.   Any default under the terms and provisions of this Note, the Loan Agreement
     or any of the other Loan Documents, and such default remains unremedied
     thirty (30) days after written notice thereof shall have been given to
     Borrowers.

Upon the happening of any Event of Default, or on the Maturity Date, the entire
amount of interest, principal and any other sums due under this Note shall
become due and payable immediately and interest shall accrue thereafter at a
rate of interest equal to twenty-four (24%) percent per annum (the "Default
Rate"). The Default Rate shall apply, without notice, immediately upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default and shall continue thereafter until all sums
then due and payable under this Note are paid in full. The Borrowers acknowledge
that (a) the Default Rate is a material inducement to the Lender to make the
Term Loan; (b) the Lender would not have made the Term Loan in the absence of
the Agreement of the Borrowers to pay the Default Rate upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default; (c) such Default Rate represents compensation to the
Lender for the increased risk to the Lender that his Note will not be repaid by
the Borrowers; and (d) the Default Rate is not a penalty and represents a
reasonable estimate of (i) the cost to the Lender in allocating its resources
(both personnel and financial) to the ongoing review, monitoring, administration
and collection of this Note and (ii) compensation to the Lender for losses
resulting from the Borrowers' default that are difficult to ascertain. Upon and
following an Event of Default, the Lender may proceed to protect and enforce the
Lender's rights under this Note and any Loan Document, and under applicable law,
by action at law, inequity, or other appropriate proceedings, including, without
limitation, an action for specific performance to enforce or aid in the
enforcement of any provision contained herein and in any other Loan Documents.
The Lender does not give up its rights upon an Event of Default as a result of
any delay in declaring or failing to declare an Event of Default.

     the unconditional obligations of the Borrowers and all who succeed to its
     rights and interests, provided, however, that the Borrowers may not assign
     its rights or obligations hereunder, or any interest herein, without the
     prior written consent of the Lender, and any such assignment or attempted
     assignment by the Borrowers shall be void and of no effect with respect to
     the Lender.

4.   GOVERNING LAW.  This Note shall be construed according to the laws of the
     -------------
     State of New Jersey and the Borrowers consent to the jurisdiction of the
     courts of the State of New Jersey to determine any questions of fact or law
     arising under this note.

5.   ACTIONS INVOLVING THIS NOTE.
     ---------------------------
     a.   If this Note is referred to any attorney for collection, the Borrowers
          agree to pay all costs of collection, including court costs and
          reasonable attorneys' fees.

     b.   The Borrowers hereby consent that any action or proceeding against the
          Borrowers be commenced and maintained in any court within the State of
          New Jersey or in the United States District Court for the District of
          New Jersey by service or process on the Borrowers; and Borrowers agree
          that the Courts of the State of New Jersey and the United States
          District Court for the District of New Jersey shall have jurisdiction
          with respect to the subject matter hereof and the persons of Borrowers

<PAGE>

          the Lender based upon improper venue or inconvenient forum. The
          Borrowers hereby consent to process being served in any suit, action
          or proceeding of the nature referred to herein by mailing a copy
          thereof by registered or certified mail, postage-prepaid, return

     c.   Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that this section is a specific

          a part of this Note.

6.   NO USURY. The Lender and the Borrowers intend to comply at all times with
     --------
     applicable usury laws. If at any such time such laws would ever render
     usurious any amounts called for under this Note or the Loan Documents, then
     it is in the Borrowers' and the Lender's express intention that such excess
     amount shall be immediately credited on the principal balance of this Note
     (or, if this Note has been fully paid, refunded by the Lender to the
     Borrowers), and the provisions hereof shall be immediately reformed and the
     amounts thereafter collectible under this Note reduced, without the
     necessity of the execution of any further documents, so as to comply with
     the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest
     amount otherwise called for under this Note. The Borrowers agree that in
     determining whether or not any interest payable under this Note or the Loan
     Documents exceeds the highest rate not prohibited by law, any non-principal
     payment (except payments specifically stated in this Note or in the Loan
     Documents to be "interest"), including, without limitation, prepayment fees
     and late charges, shall, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, be an
     expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.

7.   RIGHTS CUMULATIVE.  The rights and remedies of the Lender under this Note
     -----------------
     and the Loan Documents shall be cumulative and concurrent and, at the sole
     discretion of the Lender, may be pursued singly, successively or together,
     and exercised as often as the Lender shall desire. The failure of the
     Lender to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event be construed
     as a waiver of release thereof. Nothing herein contained shall be construed
     as limiting the Lender to the remedies mentioned above.

                                       5

8.  SEVERABILITY.  If any term, clause or provision of this Note shall be
    ------------
    determined by any court to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the
    illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of such term, clause or provision
    shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the remainder
    thereof or of any other term, clause or provision hereof, and this Note
    shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable
    term, clause or provision had not been contained herein, and all covenants
    obligations and agreements shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted
    by law.

    certain Loan and Security Agreement dated simultaneously herewith. To the
    extent of any inconsistencies between this Term Note and the Loan and

such instruments or distributions as Pledgee's agent, shall receive them in
trust for Pledgee, and shall deliver them forthwith to the Pled gee in the exact
form received with, as applicable, either Pledgor's endorsement when necessary
or appropriate stock powers duly executed in blank, to be held by Pled gee,
subject to the terms hereof, as further collateral security for the Obligations.

SECTION 3. Representations and Warranties.

     The Pledgor represents and warrants:

security interest granted to the Pledgee hereunder.

     (d)  The execution, delivery and performance by Pledgor of this Pledge
Agreement has been duly and properly authorized and does not and will not result

judgment, decree, order, law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule or
regulation applicable to Pledgor; and

     (e)  Upon delivery of the Pledged Stock to the Pledgee or an agent for the
Pledgee, this Pledge Agreement creates and grants a valid first lien on and
perfected security interest in the shares of the Pledge Stock and the proceeds
thereof, subject to no prior security interest, lien, charge or encumbrance, or
to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a security interest in
the property or assets of the Pledgor which would include the Pledged Stock.

     (f)  There are no restrictions on transfer of the Pledged Stock contained
in the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of Issuer or otherwise, other
than applicable securities laws, which have not otherwise been enforceable and
legally waived by the necessary parties; and no notification of the Pledge
evidenced hereby to any party is required.

SECTION 4. Negative Covenants.

     Pledgor covenants that, until the indebtedness under the Obligations shall
be satisfied in full, Pledgor will not:

     (a)  Sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Pledged Stock
or any interest therein; nor will Pledgor create, incur or permit to exist any
pledge, mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance or any security interest whatsoever
with respect to any of the Pledged Stock or the proceeds thereof.

     (b)  Consent to or approve the issuance of (i) any additional shares of any
class of capital stock of the Issuer of the Pledged Stock other than as
permitted in the Term Loan Agreement, or (ii) any securities convertible either
voluntarily by the holder thereof or automatically upon the occurrence or
nonoccurrence of any event or condition into, or any securities exchangeable
for, any such shares; or any warrants, options, contracts or other commitments

<PAGE>

SECTION 5. Affirmative Covenants.

     Pledgor covenants that until the indebtedness under the Obligations are

special property and security interest in and to the Pledged Stock against the
claims of any person, firm, corporation or other entity.

to Pledgee by or on behalf of Pledgor proves to have been false in any material
respect when made or furnished or is breached, violated or not complied with.

     (d)  Dissolution, termination of existence, insolvency, business failure,
appointment of a receiver, assignment for the benefit of creditors or the
commencement of any proceedings under any bankruptcy or insolvency law by or
against Pledgor or Issuer or Fast Ferry I Corp. or Pledgor or Issuer or Fast
Ferry II Corp. suffers any such proceeding to exist (provided, in the event of
an involuntary petition, same shall not have been discharged within a period of
60 days) or the making by either Pledgor or Issuer of any offer of settlement,
extension or composition with their respective creditors.

SECTION 8. Remedies.

     Upon the happening of an Event of Default as defined in the Agreement, and
upon the failure of the Issuer to cure or remedy the Default, the Escrow Agent,
upon ten (10) days' written notice by Pledgee, with a copy to Pledgor, shall
deliver the Pledged Stock to Pledgee and:

     (a)  Issuer shall cause the Pledged Stock to be transferred into Pledgee's
name, or into the name of its nominee or nominees.

                                       3
<PAGE>

     (b)  Pending such transfer, Pledgee may vote the Pledged Stock (whether or
not so transferred) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect
thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright
owner thereof (Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing Pledgee,
with full power of substitution, the proxy and attorney-in-fact of Pledgor for
such purposes).

     (c)  Pending such transfer, Pledgee may exercise all corporate rights with
respect to the Pledged Stock including, without limitation, all rights of
conversion, exchange, subscription or any other rights, privileges or options
pertaining to any shares of the Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner
thereof, including, but without limitation, the right to exchange, at its
discretion, any or all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the Issuer thereof, or
upon the exercise by any such issuer of any right, privilege or option
pertaining to any such shares of the Pledged Stock, and, in connection
therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any
committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agent upon
such terms and conditions as it may determine, all without liability except to
account for property actually received by it; but the Pledgee shall have no duty
to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options and shall not be
responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

     (d)  Pending such transfer, Pledgee may require all cash dividends payable
with respect to any part of the Pledged Stock be paid to Pledgee as additional
collateral security, and subject to any requirement of applicable law, sell,
assign and deliver the whole or, from time to time, any part of the Pledged
Stock at the time held by the Pledgee, at any private sale or at public auction,
with or without demand, advertisement or notice of the time or place of sale or
adjournment thereof or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived, except such
notice as is required by applicable law and cannot be waived), for cash or
credit or for other property for immediate or future delivery, and for such
price or prices and on such terms as Pledgee in its sole discretion may
determine, or as may be required by applicable law.

     Pledgor hereby waives and releases any and all right or equity of
redemption, whether before or after sale hereunder. At any such sale, unless
prohibited by applicable law, Pledgee may bid for and purchase the whole or any
part of the Pledged Stock so sold free from any such right or equity of
redemption. All moneys received by Pledgee hereunder whether upon sale of the
Pledged Stock or any part thereof or otherwise shall be held by Pledgee and
applied by it as provided in Section 11 hereof. No failure or delay on the part
of Pledgee in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any
such rights nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such rights preclude
any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other rights
hereunder. The Pled gee shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of
the Pledge's Stock or any income thereon nor any duty as to preservation of any
rights pertaining thereto, except to apply the funds in accordance with the
requirements of Section 10 hereof. Pledgee may exercise its rights with respect
to property held hereunder without resort to other security for or sources of
reimbursement for the indebtedness secured hereby. In addition to the foregoing,
Pledgee shall have all of the rights, remedies and privileges of a secured party
under the Uniform Commercial Code of New Jersey regardless of the jurisdiction
in which enforcement hereof is sought.

                                       4
<PAGE>

     Pledgee grants, in the Event of Default, a right of first offer to Berwyn
Capital to purchase the Pledged Stock from Pledgee for an amount equal to (i)
the unpaid principal balance of the obligation, and (ii) the amount of accrued
interest and late fees, in full and final and complete satisfaction of the
obligation of Lighthouse Fast Ferry, Inc., Fast Ferry I Corp. and Fast Ferry II
Corp. to Pledgee.

SECTION 9. Private Sale.

     Pledgor recognizes that Pledgee may be unable to effect (or to do so only
after delay which would adversely affect the value that might be realized from
the Pledged Stock) a public sale of all or part of the Pledged Stock by reason
of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and may be compelled to
resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will
be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their
own account, for investment and not with a view of the distribution or resale
thereof. Pledgor agrees that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms
less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales and that such private
sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.
Pledgor agrees that Pledgee has no obligation to delay sale of any such
securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such
securities to register for public sale under the Securities Act.

SECTION 10. Proceeds of Sale.

     The proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation,
realization or sale of the Pledged Stock shall be applied by Pledgee as follows:

     (a)  First, to the payment of all costs, expenses and charges of the
Pledgee, as such, or the reimbursement of the Pledgee for the prior payment of
such costs, expenses and charges incurred in connection with the care and
safekeeping of any of the Pledged Stock (including, without limitation, the
expenses of any sale or other proceeding, the expenses of any taking, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, court costs, any other expenses incurred or
expenditures or advances made by the Pledgee in the protection, enforcement or
exercise of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder) with interest on any such
reimbursement at the rate set forth in the Agreement from the date of payment.

     (b)  Second, to the payment of the indebtedness described in Section 1
hereof, in whole or in part, in such order as Pledgee may elect, whether such
obligations or liabilities are then due or not due.

     (c)  Third, to the payment of any other amounts required by applicable law
including, without limitation, Section 9-504 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

     (e)  Fourth, to the extent of any surplus thereafter retaining to the
Pledgor or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

SECTION 11. Deficiency.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     In the event that the proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt,
appropriation, realization or sale are insufficient to satisfy the indebtedness
described in Section 1, Pledgor shall not be liable for any deficiency.  Pledgor
shall have no personal liability to Pledgee other than to the extent of
