Date of Note: August 15, 2003

        PROMISE
TO PAY. JOHN P. YEROS and LAURA R. YEROS ("Borrower") jointly and severally promise to pay to HORIZON BANKS, N.A. ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of
America, the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand & 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding, together with Interest on the unpaid outstanding principal balance of each
advance. Interest shall be calculated from the date of each advance until repayment of each advance. 

        PAYMENT.
Borrower will pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding principal plus all accrued unpaid interest on August 15, 2004. In addition, Borrower will pay regular
monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning September 15, 2003, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same day of each month after
that. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any unpaid collection costs; and then to any late
charges. The annual Interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual Interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the
outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number
of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. 

        VALUABLE
INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the PRIME RATE AS PUBLISHED IN THE
WALL STREET JOURNAL (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a
substitute index after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each DAY. Borrower
understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The index currently is 4.000% per annum. The Interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will
be at a rate of 2,000 percentage points over the Index, adjusted if necessary for any minimum and maximum rate limitations described below, resulting in an initial rate of 6.500% per annum.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the variable interest rate or rates provided for in this Note will be subject to the following minimum and maximum rates. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the
interest rate on this Note be less than 6.500% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. 

        PREPAYMENT;
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. In any event, even upon full prepayment of this Note, Borrower understands that Lender is
entitled to 

 

a
minimum interest charge of $25.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any minimum interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due.
Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early payments will reduce
the principal balance due. 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. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check
or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a
disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: HORIZON BANKS, N.A.; DTC BRANCH; 8400 E. CRESCENT PARKWAY, SUITE 100; ENGLEWOOD, CO 80111. 

        LATE
CHARGE. If a payment is 11 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment or $20.00, whichever is greater. 

        INTEREST
AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on
this Note to 18.000% per annum. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. 

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

        Payment
Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this Note. 

        Other
Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the related documents or to
comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower. 

        Default
in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower of any Grantor defaults under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor
of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or perform Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of
the related documents. 

        False
Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement, made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this Note or the related documents is false or
misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter. 

        Death
or Insolvency. The death of Borrower of the dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a going business, the insolvency, of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for
any part of Borrower's property, any assignment of the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against
Borrower. 

        Creditor
or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any other method, by any
creditor of Borrower or by any governmental agency against any collateral securing the loan. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender.
However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with

Lender
monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute. 

        Events
Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to any Guarantor of any of the indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or
disputes the validity of, or liability under, any guaranty of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. In the event of a death, Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the
Guarantor's estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default. 

        Adverse
Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of this Note is impaired. 

        Insecurity.
Lender in good faith believes itself insecure. 

        Cure
Provisions. In any default, other than a default in payment is curable and if Borrower has not been given a notice of a breach of the same provision of this Note within the
preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no event of default will have occurred) if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default:
(1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole
discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continuous and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

amount.

and appeals. If not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided by law. 

        GOVERNING
LAW. This Note will be governed by, constructed and enforced in accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of

        AMOUNT
OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is Unlimited. 

        CONTINUING
UNLIMITED GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, JAMES M. YEROS ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to HORIZON BANKS, N.A.
("Lender") or its order, in legal tender of the United States of America, the indebtedness (as that term is defined below) of JOHN P. YEROS and LAURA R. YEROS ("Borrower"), or either or any of them,
to Lender on the terms and conditions set forth in this Guaranty. Under this Guaranty, the liability of Guarantor is unlimited and the obligations of Guarantor are continuing. 

        INDEBTEDNESS
GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness guarantee by this Guaranty includes any and all of Borrower's indebtedness to Lender and is used in the most comprehensive sense and means and
includes any and all of Borrower's liabilities, obligations and debts to Lender, now existing or hereinafter incurred or created, including, without limitation, all loans, advances, interest, costs,
debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness, lease obligations, other obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, of any of them, and any present or future judgments against Borrower, or any
of them; and whether any such indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether Borrower
may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recover on the indebtedness may be or may become barred or unenforceable against
Borrower for any
reason whatsoever; and whether the indebtedness arises from transactions which may be voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra virus, or otherwise. 

        DURATION
OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or to Borrower, and will
continue in full force until all indebtedness incurred or contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's
other obligations under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written notice of revocation must
be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing. Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new indebtedness" does not include indebtedness which at the
time of notice of revocation is contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes 

4

 

absolute,
liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind Guarantor for all indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior to receipt of Guarantor's written notice
of revocation, including any extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the indebtedness. All renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the indebtedness granted after
Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and, specifically will not be considered to be new indebtedness. This Guaranty shall bind Guarantor's estate as to indebtedness created
both before and after Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or administrator or other legal
representative may terminated this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty
of the indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any remaining
Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of indebtedness covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that
reductions in the amount of indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00), prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is
binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from time to time be
zero dollars ($0.00). 

        GUARANTOR'S
AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorized Lender, either before or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening Guarantor's liability under
this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to
Borrower, or otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change one or more times the time for payment or other terms of
the indebtedness or any part of the indebtedness, including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the indebtedness; extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan
term; (C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to perfect, and release any such
security, with or without the substitution of new collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to sue, or deal with any one or more of
Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application of payments and credits shall be made on the
indebtedness; (F) to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security
agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion may determine; (G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participation in all or any part of the indebtedness; and (H) to assign or
transfer this Guaranty in whole or in part. 

        GUARANTOR'S
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that (A) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to Guarantor which
would limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty; (B) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower's request and not at the request of Lender; (C) Guarantor has full power, right
and authority to enter into this Guaranty; (D) the provisions of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in a default under any agreement or other instrument binding upon Guarantor and do
not result in a violation of any law, regulation, court decree or order applicable to Guarantor; (E) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior written consent of Lessor, sell, lease,
assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor's assets, or any interest therein; (F) upon Lender's request, Guarantor will provide to
Lender financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such financial information which currently has been, and all future financial information which will be provided to Lender
is and will be true and correct in all material respects and fairly present Guarantor's financial condition as of the dates the financial information is 

5

 

provided;
(G) no material adverse change has occurred in Guarantor's financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements provided to Lender and no event has occurred
which may materially adversely affect Guarantor's financial condition; (H) no litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes)
against Guarantor is pending or threatened; (I) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of Borrower; and (J) Guarantor has established adequate means of
obtaining from Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower's financial condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events, or circumstances
which might in any way affect Guarantor's risks under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any
information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship with Borrower. 

        GUARANTOR'S
WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending money or to extend other credit to Borrower:
(B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the indebtedness or of any nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any
action or nonaction on the part of Borrower, Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in connection with the indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or additional loans or
obligations; (C) to re            for payment or to proceed directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other guarantor; (D) to proceed directly against or
exhaust any collateral held by Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal
property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with any other applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other remedy within Lender's
power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind, or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever; 

        In
addition to the waivers set forth herein, if now or hereafter Borrower is or shall become insolvent and the indebtedness shall not at all times until paid be fully secured by
collateral pledged by Borrower, Guarantor hereby forever waives and gives up in favor of Lender and Borrower, and Lender's and Borrower's respective successors, any claim or right to payment Guarantor
may now have or hereafter have or acquire against Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, so that at no time shall Guarantor be or become a "creditor" of Borrower within the meaning of 11 U.S.C.
section 547(b), or any successor provision of the Federal Bankruptcy laws. 

        Guarantor
also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any "one action" or "anti-deficiency" law or any other law which may prevent lender from
bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or completion of any foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of
sale; (B) any election of remedies by Lender which destroys

as the case may be, at such times and in such offices and places as Lender may deem appropriate, any and all such mortgages, deeds of trust, security deeds, security agreements, financing

Deed of Trust on the Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor. Unless prohibited by law or Lender agrees to the contrary in writing. Grantor shall reimburse Lender for all costs

operate the Property preceding foreclosure or sale, and to collect the Rents from the Property and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership, against the indebtedness. The

sell all or any part of the Property together or separately, in one sale or by separate sales. Lender shall be entitled to bid at
any public sale on all or any portion of the Property. Upon any sale of the Property, whether made under a power of sale granted in this Deed of Trust or pursuant to judicial proceedings, if the
holder of the Note is a purchaser at such sale, it shall be entitled to use and apply all, or any portion of, the indebtedness for or in settlement or payment of all, or any portion of, the
purchase price of the Property purchased, and, in such case, this Deed of Trust, the Note, and any documents evidencing expenditures secured by this Deed of Trust shall be presented to the person
conducting the sale in order that the amount of indebtedness so used or applied may be credited thereon as having been paid. 

        Attorneys'
Fees; Expenses. If Lender forecloses or institutes any suit or action to enforce any of the terms of this Deed of Trust, Lender shall be entitled to recover such sum as the
court may adjudge reasonable as attorneys' fees at trial and upon any appeal. Whether or not any court action is involved, and to the extent not prohibited by law, all reasonable expenses Lender
incurs that in Lender's opinion are necessary at any time for the protection of its interest or the enforcement of its rights shall become a part of the indebtedness payable on demand and shall bear
interest at the Note rate from the date of the expenditure until repaid. Expenses covered by this paragraph include, without limitation, however subject to any limits under applicable law,
Lender's attorneys' fees whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate 

12

 

any
automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services, the cost of searching records, obtaining the reports (including foreclosure reports),
surveyors' reports, and appraisal fees, title insurance, and fees for the Trustee, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Grantor also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums
provided by law. 

        Rights

foreclosure from the holder of any lien which has priority over this Deed of Trust shall be sent to Lender's address, as shown near the beginning of this Deed of Trust. Any party may change its
address for notices under this Deed of Trust by giving formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address. For notice purposes,
Grantor agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Grantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by law, if there is more than one Grantor, any notice given by Lender to any
Grantor is deemed to be notice given to all Grantors.

that each Grantor signing below is responsible for all obligations in this Deed of Trust. 

        No
Waiver of Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Deed of Trust unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on
the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by 

13

 

Lender
of a provision of this Deed of Trust shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Deed
of Trust. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Grantor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Deed of Trust, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender. 

        Severability.
If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Deed of Trust to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as in any person or circumstance, that finding shall
not make the offending provision illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any other person or circumstance. If feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal,
valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Deed of Trust. Unless otherwise required by law, the illegality, invalidity, or
unenforceability of any provision of this Deed of Trust shall not affect the

        INSURANCE
REQUIREMENTS. Grantor, John P. Yeros and Laura R. Yeros ("Grantor"), understands that insurance coverage is required in connection with the extending of a loan or the providing
of other financial accommodations to Grantor by Lender. Those requirements are set forth in the security documents for the loan. The following minimum insurance coverages must be provided on the

liability for failure to give such notice.

	 	 	Latest Delivery Date: By the loan closing date.

        INSURANCE
COMPANY. Grantor may obtain insurance from any insurance company Grantor may choose that is reasonably acceptable to Lender. Grantor understands that credit may not be denied
solely because insurance was not purchased through Lender. 

        FLOOD
INSURANCE. Flood insurance for the Collateral securing this loan is described as follows: 

        Real
Estate at 6471 E. RADCLIFF AVENUE, ENGLEWOOD, CO 80111. 

        The
Collateral securing this loan is not currently located in an area identified as having special flood. hazards. Therefore, no special flood hazard insurance is necessary at this time.
Should the Collateral at any time be deemed to be located in an area designated by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special flood hazard area, Grantor agrees to obtain and
maintain Federal Flood Insurance, if available, within 45 days after notice is given by Lender that the Collateral is located in a special flood hazard area, for the full unpaid balance of the
loan and any prior liens on the property securing the loan, up to the maximum policy limits set under the National Flood Insurance Program, or as otherwise required by Lender, and to maintain such
insurance for the term of the loan. Flood insurance may be purchased under the National Flood Insurance Program or from private insurers. 

        FAILURE
TO PROVIDE INSURANCE. Grantor agrees to deliver to Lender, on the latest delivery date stated above, evidence of the required insurance as provided above, with an effective date
of August 15, 2003, or earlier. Grantor acknowledges and agrees that if Grantor fails to provide any 

19

 

required
insurance or fails to continue such insurance in force, Lender may do so at Grantor's expense as provided in the applicable security document. This cost of any such insurance, at the option
of Lender, shall be added to the indebtedness as provided in the security document. GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IF LENDER SO PURCHASES ANY SUCH INSURANCE, THE INSURANCE WILL PROVIDE LIMITED PROTECTION
