         For the purpose of computing interest under this Note, payments of
all or any portion of the principal sum owing under this Note will not be
deemed to have been made until such payments are received by the Lender in
collected funds.

         All agreements between the Borrowers and the Lender are expressly
limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of disbursement of
the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount of interest or finance
charge (as defined by the laws of the State of Oklahoma) paid or agreed to be
paid by the Borrowers to the Lender exceed the highest lawful contractual
rate of interest or the maximum finance charge permissible under the law
which a court of competent jurisdiction, by final non-appealable order,
determines to be applicable hereto. If fulfillment of any agreement between
the Borrowers and the Lender, at the time the performance of such agreement
becomes due, involves exceeding such highest lawful contractual rate or such
maximum permissible finance charge, then the obligation to fulfill the same
shall be reduced so that such obligation does not exceed such highest lawful
contractual rate or maximum permissible finance charge. If by any
circumstance the Lender shall ever receive as interest or finance charge an
amount which would exceed the amount allowed by applicable law, the amount
which may be deemed excessive shall be deemed applied to the principal of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby and not to interest. All interest and finance
charges paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender shall be prorated, allocated
and spread throughout the full period of this Note. The terms and provisions
of this paragraph shall control all other terms and provisions contained
herein and in any of the other documents executed in connection herewith. If
any provision of this Note or the application thereof to any party or
encumbrance is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Note and
the application of such provision to other parties or circumstances shall not
be affected thereby, the provisions of this Note being severable in any such
instance.

         The makers, endorsers, sureties, guarantors and all other persons
who may be liable for all or any part of this obligation severally waive
presentment for payment, protest, demand and notice of nonpayment. Said
parties consent to any extension of time (whether one or more) of payment
hereof, release of all or any part of the security for the payment hereof, or
release of any party liable for payment of this obligation. Any such
extensions or release may be made without notice to any such party and
without discharging said party's liability hereunder.

         The failure of the Lender to exercise any of the remedies or options
set forth in this Note or in any instrument securing payment hereof, or any
agreement by the Lender to forebear from exercising any available remedy for
any specified period upon the occurrence of one or more of the events of
default shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same or
any other remedy at law, or in equity, at any subsequent time in respect to
the same or any other event of default. The acceptance by the Lender of any
payment which is less than the total of all amounts due and payable at the
time of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise
any of the foregoing remedies or options at that time or at any subsequent
time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the
express consent of the Lender, except as and to the extent otherwise provided
by law.

                  shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any
                  such notice. Secured Party may, without notice or publication,
                  adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be
                  adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and
                  place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any
                  time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. Debtor
                  acknowledges that the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
                  certain other federal and state laws or regulations may
                  constitute legal restrictions or limitations upon Secured
                  Party in any attempts to dispose of any portion of the
                  Collateral which constitutes securities and the enforcement by
                  Secured Party of its rights and remedies with respect thereto.
                  Secured Party is authorized, but shall in no event be
                  obligated, to sell or dispose of any portion of the Collateral
                  which constitutes securities at a private sale subject to
                  investment letter or in any other manner which would not
                  require the Collateral or any portion thereof to be registered
                  in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, the rules and
                  regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any other
                  securities laws or regulations, and Secured Party is
                  authorized to take such action, give such notice, obtain such
                  consents and do such things as it may deem necessary and
                  appropriate in connection with any such private sale or
                  disposition. Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, may
                  sell any portion of the Collateral which constitutes a
                  security at its book value to a restricted number of potential
                  purchasers, notwithstanding that a sale under any such
                  circumstances may yield a lower price for such Collateral than
                  might otherwise be available if such Collateral were
                  registered under the applicable securities laws and sold on
                  the open market. Debtor stipulates and agrees that the sale
                  for book value is conclusive evidence that such private sale
                  or sales were conducted in a commercially reasonable manner
                  pursuant to the requirements of applicable law.

                           5.3 COSTS AND EXPENSES. Recover from Debtor an amount
                  equal to all costs, expenses and attorney's fees incurred by
                  Secured Party in connection with the exercise of the rights
                  contained or referred to herein, together with interest on
                  such sums at the rate applicable to the Note from time to
                  time.

                           5.4 WAIVER OF DEFAULT. Secured Party may, by an
                  instrument in writing signed by Secured Party, waive any event
                  of default which shall have occurred and any of the
                  consequences thereof and, in such event, Secured Party and
                  Debtor shall be restored to their respective former positions,
                  rights and obligations. Any event of default so waived shall,
                  for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to have been
                  cured and not to be continuing, but no such waiver shall
                  extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any
                  consequence thereof.

                           5.5 REGISTRATION. Any or all shares of stock
                  constituting a part of the Collateral held by Secured Party
                  hereunder may, if an event of default has occurred and is
                  continuing, be registered in the name of Secured Party or its
                  nominee, and

                                        5

                  Secured Party or its nominee may thereafter exercise all
                  voting and corporate rights at any meeting of any corporation
                  issuing any of the shares included in the Collateral and
                  exercise any and all rights of conversion, exchange,
                  subscription or any other rights, privileges or options
                  pertaining to any such shares as if it were the absolute owner
                  thereof, including without limitation, the right to exchange
                  at its discretion, any and all of such stock upon the merger,
                  consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other
                  readjustment of any corporation issuing any of such shares or
                  upon the exercise by any such issuer of any right, privilege
                  or option pertaining to any such shares of stock, and in
                  connection therewith, to deposit and deliver any and all of
                  such shares of stock with any committee, depositary, transfer
                  agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms
                  and conditions as it may determine, all without liability
                  except to account for property actually received by it, but
                  Secured Party 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 for any delay in so
                  doing. This Agreement constitutes Debtor's proxy to Secured
                  Party or its nominee to vote all shares of stock constituting
                  a part of the Collateral or other securities with voting
                  rights then registered in Debtor's name.

                           5.6 NO DUTY. The powers conferred on Secured Party
                  hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the
                  Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise
                  any such powers. Secured Party shall be accountable only for
                  amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise
                  of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers,
                  directors, employees or agents shall be responsible for any
                  act or failure to act, except for its own gross negligence of
                  willful misconduct.

                  6. MISCELLANEOUS. The provisions of this Agreement are
severable, and the invalidity of any part or application hereof will not
affect any other provision or application hereof. No indulgence or waiver
hereunder by the Secured Party will be construed to affect any other default
hereunder, or preclude the Secured Party from asserting any right or remedy
with respect to a later default. The Secured Party's remedies hereunder are
cumulative and not alternative, the exercise of one remedy will not preclude
the Secured Party from exercising another for the same default. The terms of
this Agreement will be binding on the successors and permitted assigns of the
parties hereto. The laws of the State of Oklahoma will govern the
construction and validity of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the
parties hereunder.
