rate equal to the Initial Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 225 basis points
per annum during the first five (5) Loan Years (as defined below) and (ii) a

basis points per annum during the second five (5) Loan Years (as defined below)
to apply to outstanding Principal Amount hereunder, all in accordance with, and
subject to the limitations of, the provisions of the Loan Agreement. The
applicable Interest Rate shall be established by the Bank as of two (2) Banking
Days preceding the first day of the first five (5) Loan Years and shall remain
in effect as so established during the first five (5) Loan Years; thereafter,
two (2) Banking Days preceding the first day of the second five (5) Loan Years,
the Bank shall establish the Interest Rate for the last five (5) Loan Years,
which Interest Rate shall remain in effect as so established during the second
five (5) Loan Years. "Initial Treasury Rate" shall mean a rate per annum
(computed on the basis of actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days) equal to
United States Treasury Notes or Bills (Bills on a discounted basis shall be
converted to a bond equivalent basis) with a maturity date closest to the end of
the first five (5) Loan Years, as published in the Wall Street Journal.
"Subsequent Treasury Rate" shall mean a rate per annum (computed on the basis of
actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days) equal to United States Treasury
Notes or Bills (Bills on a discounted basis shall be converted to a bond
equivalent basis) with a maturity date closest to the end of the second five (5)
Loan Years, as published in the Wall Street Journal.

         2.2 Interest Payments. Interest, which has accrued during the preceding
month on the outstanding Principal Amount at the Interest Rate set forth above,
shall be paid monthly in arrears (i) as part of a blended payment of principal
and interest as provided below on each Monthly Payment Date during the first
five (5) Loan Years, commencing on the First Monthly Payment Date, and (ii) with
the direct reduction principal payments as provided below on each Monthly
Payment Date during the last five (5) Loan Years.

         2.3 Principal Payments. In addition to any interest payments to be made
as indicated above, Maker shall repay the principal balance as follows:

         (i) During the first five (5) Loan Years, principal and interest shall
be paid in sixty (60) equal monthly installments, each such installment to be in
the amount of Thirt Three Hundred Thirty Three and 33/100 Dollars ($33,333.33),
commencing on the First Monthly Payment Date and continuing on each successive
Monthly Payment Date thereafter through the end of the first five (5) Loan

         (ii) During the second five (5) Loan Years, principal shall be paid in
sixty (60) equal installments on each Monthly Payment Date, each such
installment to be in the amount of one-sixtieth (1/60) of the outstanding
Principal Amount as of the first day of the second five (5) Loan Years, together
with a monthly payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding
principal balance at the Variable Rate through each such Monthly Payment Date.
All outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and
payable in full on the

Maturity Date. As used herein, a "Loan Year" is the twelve (12) month period
commencing on the date hereof, and on each anniversary hereof.

         2.4 Prepayments. Prepayments will be subject to the following penalty:

         An amount equal to (a) the aggregate amount of interest which would
have other-wise been payable on the principal amount of the loan so prepaid
through the maturity date of the loan had there been no prepayment, minus (b)
the aggregate amount of interest the Bank would earn if the prepaid amount were
reinvested for the period from the prepayment date to the maturity date of the
loan at the Treasury Rate (as defined below). The resulting amount shall be
reduced to present value calculated by using the Treasury Rate, and that amount
shall be the prepayment premium due to the Bank. If the result is zero or
negative, there shall be no prepayment premium. For the purposes hereof the
"Treasury Rate" shall mean a rate per annum (computed on the basis of actual
days elapses and a year of 360 days), equal to United States Treasury Notes or
Bills (Bills on a discounted basis shall be converted to a Bond equivalent
basis) with a maturity date closest to the maturity date of the loan, as
published in the Wall Street Journal.

6.       RIGHT OF SET-OFF.

         In the event of default, or upon notice of issue of any legal process
by which process any of Maker's assets in the possession of Bank may be
trusteed, attached or levied upon, and in addition to the other rights contained
herein, Bank shall have the immediate and unconditional right of offset against
all demand deposits, accounts, certificates, securities, choses in action and
all other rights or property of Maker reflecting an obligation of Bank to Maker
or of any endorser, or any of them, which are then maintained with (or in
existence as against) Bank ("Cash Collateral"). Maker hereby expressly grants to
Bank a security interest in the said Cash Collateral pursuant to RSA 382-A:9-101
et seq.

7.       LATE PAYMENT.

         In the event a payment is not made by Maker within the Grace Period
after such payment is due, Maker shall in addition to all other amounts then due
pay a late charge (as liquidated damages) equal to the Late Charge defined
above. Acceptance by Bank of payment of the late charge shall not be deemed a
waiver of any default.

8.       GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         8.1 No delay or omission on the part of Bank in exercising any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right, or of any other right of
Bank, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a
bar to or waiver of the same or any other right on any future occasion. No
single or partial exercise of a power hereunder shall preclude other exercises
thereof, or the exercise of any other power hereunder.

         8.2 Any reference herein to a party in the masculine gender shall be
construed in the feminine or neuter gender, as the context may require.

         8.3 If this Note is in default, or is collected or attempted to be

bankruptcy court, or by any other judicial proceeding, or is placed in the hands
of an attorney for collection, then Maker shall pay, in addition to all other
amounts owing hereunder, all collection costs, appraisal costs, court costs and
reasonable attorney's fees and all other expenses incurred by Bank. Interest at
the Interest Rate then in effect plus five percent (5.0%) per annum shall be
deemed to continue to accrue at said rate after the occurrence of an Event of
Default and from the Maturity Date hereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise,
or institution of suit for collection) until this Note is paid in full.

         8.4 This Note is fully negotiable, and upon negotiation may be enforced
by the Bank in accordance with its terms.

         8.5 This Note shall be governed exclusively by the laws of the State of

maintained in a court of competent jurisdiction located therein, and consents to
the jurisdiction of any such New Hampshire court for all purposes connected
herewith. Maker consents to the jurisdiction of any court in any state in which

only in the State and Federal courts in the State of New Hampshire.

         8.6 If Bank shall pay any tax, lien, insurance or other charge legally
due to preserve or protect any property serving as collateral for this Note, the
amount of said payment may either be added to the principal of this Note, to
bear interest thereafter at the Interest Rate then in effect, or may be payable
to Bank ON DEMAND, as Bank may elect. Such sums will be secured by the Loan
Documents equally with the principal and interest hereof.

         8.7 In the event any payment of principal or interest received upon
this obligation and paid by Maker or any guarantor, surety, co-maker or
endorser, shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to
have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or
insolvency laws of the United States, or otherwise, then in such event to the
extent thereof, the obligation of the undersigned, or any guarantor, surety,
co-maker or endorser shall, jointly and severally, survive as an obligation due
hereunder and shall not be discharged or satisfied by said payment or payments,
which obligation shall be payable ON DEMAND, with interest as provided herein,
notwithstanding return by the Bank hereof to said parties of this original
hereof or any guaranty, endorsement or the like.

         8.8 If this Note is executed by more than one party, references to the
undersigned or the "Maker" include each and all of them and they shall be
jointly and severally liable hereunder. This Note shall inure to the benefit of
Bank, its successors, assigns, endorsees and any person to whom Bank may grant
any interest in this Note, including without limitation, a participation
interest by another bank or financial institution, and shall be binding upon the
undersigned and the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and
other legal representatives thereof; this Note is not intended to create any
right or other cause of action in or on behalf of any person other than Bank,
its successors, assigns, endorsees and any person to whom Bank may grant any
interest in this Note.

         8.9 To the extent possible, each provision of this Note shall be
interpreted in a manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable under applicable
law. If any provision of this Note shall be held invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof will not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

         8.10 This Note may be extended, modified or renewed by agreement of
Maker and Bank without releasing, discharging or affecting the liability of
Maker or any sureties, endorsers or guarantors of this Note.

         afforded hereby; or

         manner inconsistent with any policy of insurance thereon.

                                       7
<PAGE>

         6. Fixtures. It is the intention of the parties hereto that none of the
Collateral shall become fixtures. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Debtor will, if requested by the Secured Party, obtain waivers of
lien, in form satisfactory to the Secured Party, from each mortgagee or lessor
of real property (other than the Secured Party) on which any of the Collateral
is or is to be located.

         7. Insurance. Debtor shall, at its own expense, maintain insurance
covering the Collateral against such risks, with such insurers, in such form,
and in such amounts as shall from time to time be required by Secured Party, but
in any event, in such amounts and with such coverage as is customary in Debtor's
type of business. All insurance policies shall be written so as to be payable in
the event of loss to Secured Party and shall provide for thirty (30) days'
written notice to Secured Party of cancellation or modification. At the request
of Secured Party, all insurance policies shall be furnished to and held by
Secured Party. Debtor hereby assigns to Secured Party return premiums, dividends
and other amounts which may be or become due upon cancellation of any such
policies for any reason whatsoever and, after the occurrence of an Event of
Default (as defined hereinbelow), directs the insurers to pay Secured Party any
sums so due. Secured Party is hereby appointed as attorney irrevocable to
collect after the occurrence of an Event of Default return premiums, dividends
and other amounts due on any insurance policy and the proceeds of such
insurance, to settle any claims with the insurers in the event of loss or
damage, to endorse settlement drafts and, after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, to cancel, assign, or surrender any insurance policies. If, prior to
the occurrence of an Event of Default , any return premiums, dividends, other
amounts or proceeds are paid to Debtor under such policies, Debtor shall take
either or both of the following actions: (i) apply such return premiums,
dividends, other amounts and proceeds in whole or in part to the payment or
satisfaction of any of the Secured Obligations; or (ii) use such return
premiums, dividends, other amounts and proceeds for the purpose of repairing or
replacing the Collateral destroyed or damaged. If, after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, any return premiums, dividends, other amounts or proceeds are
paid to Secured Party under such policies, such return premiums, dividends,
other amounts and proceeds shall be applied to the payment of any of the Secured
Obligations.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         8. Receivables. Debtor agrees that Secured Party may communicate with
account debtors in order to verify the existence, amount, and terms of any
Receivables. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Secured Party may
notify account debtors of the security interests established herein and require
that payments on Receivables be made directly to Secured Party, and upon the
request of Secured Party, Debtor shall notify account debtors and indicate on
all billings that payments and returns are to be made directly to Secured Party.
In furtherance of the foregoing, Debtor hereby appoints Secured Party attorney
irrevocable with full power after the occurrence of an Event of Default to
collect, compromise, endorse, sell, or otherwise deal with the Receivables or
proceeds thereof and to perform the terms of any contract in order to create
Receivables in Secured Party's name or in the name of Debtor. This Agreement may
be, but need not be, supplemented by separate assignments of Receivables and
contract rights and, if such assignments are given, the rights and security
interests given thereby shall be in addition to and not in limitation of the
rights and security interests granted by this Agreement.

         9. Events of Default. The following events shall be deemed "Events of
Default" hereunder:

                  (a) An Event of Default under the Guaranty, the Loan Agreement
         or any of the Loan Documents;

                  (b) Any representation or warranty or statement of fact made

                  (c) Debtor fails to observe or perform any covenant, warranty,
         or agreement required to be observed or performed by it under this

                  (d) Debtor shall be in default under any obligation undertaken

         condition of Debtor or on the value of the Collateral;

         substantial portion of any of the Collateral; or

                  (f) Any Debtor or any guarantor of any of the Secured

         device for the benefit of creditors, (ii) general failure to pay debts
         when due, (iii) attachment or receivership of assets not dissolved or
         satisfactorily bonded within thirty (30) days, (iv)the appointment of a

         reorganization, insolvency or relief of Debtors, or (vii) the filing
         against any Debtor or any guarantor of an involuntary petition under
         any Chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code or the institution of
         any other proceeding under any law relating to bankruptcy, bankruptcy
         reorganization, insolvency or relief of debtors where such proceeding
         is not dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date on which it is
         filed or instituted.

occurrence of any Event of Default, Secured Party shall have, by way of example
and not of limitation, the following rights and remedies:

                  (b) In addition to all other rights and remedies contained in
         this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, and in the Loan Documents, Secured
         Party may exercise the rights and remedies accorded Secured Party by
         the Uniform Commercial Code or by any other applicable law, all of
         which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive to the
         extent permitted by law;

                  (c) Secured Party shall have the right to enter and/or remain
         upon the Premises of Debtor, or any other place or places where any of
         the Collateral is located and kept, without any obligation to pay rent
         to Debtor or others, and remove Collateral therefrom to the premises of
         the Secured Party or any agent of Secured Party for such time as
         Secured Party may desire in order to maintain, collect, sell and/or
         prepare the Collateral for sale, liquidation or collection;

                  (d) Secured Party may require the Debtor at Debtor's cost to

         times credited or due from Secured Party to Debtor, whether in a
         special account or other account or represented by a certificate of
         deposit (whether or not matured); which deposit and other sums shall at

                  (h) Secured Party may perform any warranty, covenant or
         agreement which Debtor has failed to perform under this Agreement; and

                  (i) Secured Party may take any other action which Secured
         Party deems necessary or desirable to protect the Collateral or the

                  11. Rights of Secured Party to Use and Operate Collateral.
         Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, but subject to the
         provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law, the
         Secured Party shall have the right and power to take possession of all
         or any part of the Collateral, and to exclude the Debtor and all
         persons claiming under the Debtor wholly or partly therefrom, and
         thereafter to hold, store, and/or use, operate, manage and control the
         same. Upon any such taking of possession, the Secured Party may, from
         time to time, at the expense of the Debtor, make all such repairs,
         replacements, alterations, additions and improvements to and of the
         Collateral as the Secured Party may reasonably deem proper. In any such
         case, subject as aforesaid, the Secured Party shall have the right to
         manage and control the Collateral and to carry on the business and to
         exercise all rights and powers of the Debtor in respect thereto as the
         Secured Party shall deem best, including the right to enter into any
         and all such agreements with respect to the leasing and/or operation of
         the Collateral or any part thereof as the Secured Party may see fit;
         and the Secured Party shall be entitled to collect and receive all
         rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other income of the same and
         every part thereof. Such rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and
         other income shall be applied to pay the expenses of holding and
         operating the Collateral and of conducting the business thereof, and of
         all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and
         repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and improvements, and to
         make all payments which the Secured Party may be required or may elect
         to make, if any, for taxes, assessments, insurance and other charges
         upon the Collateral or any part thereof, and all other payments which
         the Secured Party may be required or authorized to make under any
         provision of this Agreement (including reasonable legal costs and
         attorneys' fees).

                                       11
<PAGE>

         The remainder of such rents, issues, profits, fees, revenues and other
         income shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in
         such order of priority as the Secured Party may determine in its sole
         discretion and any surplus shall be returned to the Debtor. Without
         limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Party shall have
         the right to apply for and have a receiver appointed by a court of
         competent jurisdiction in any action taken by the Secured Party to
         enforce their rights and remedies hereunder in order to manage, protect
         and preserve the Collateral and continue the operation of the business
         of the Debtor and to collect all revenues and profits thereof and apply
         the same to the payment of all expenses and other charges of such
         receivership including the compensation of the receiver and to the
         payment of the Secured Obligations as aforesaid until a sale or other
         disposition of such Collateral shall be finally made and consummated.

         12. Rights of Secured Party to Sell Collateral. After an Event of
Default, upon (10) days prior written notice by registered or certified mail by
Secured Party to Debtor at the address of the Debtor set forth above (or at such
other address or addresses as the Debtor shall specify in writing by like notice
to the Secured Party) of the time and place of any intended disposition of
Collateral, then Secured Party shall have the right and power to sell, assign,
lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral from any business premises of the
Debtor, either at public auction or private sale, by liquidation sale or other
disposition, or as if the sale was being made in the ordinary course of Debtor's
business, with or without notice to the public that the said sale or disposition
is for the benefit of the Secured Party; provided, however, that if the
Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a
type customarily sold on a recognized market, then Secured Party shall have the
right and power to dispose of the Collateral without prior notice to Debtor and
Debtor expressly waives any rights to notice under such circumstances. The
notices described above shall be deemed to meet any requirement hereunder or
under any applicable law (including the Uniform Commercial Code) that reasonable
notification be given of the time and place of such sale or other disposition.
After deducting all costs and expenses of collection, storage, custody, sale or
other disposition and delivery (including reasonable legal costs and attorneys'
fees) and all other charges against the Collateral, the residue of the proceeds
of any such sale or disposition shall be applied to the payment of the Secured
Obligations in such order of priority as the Secured Party may determine in its
sole discretion and any surplus shall be returned to the Debtor. In the event
the proceeds of any sale, lease or other disposition of the Collateral hereunder
are insufficient to pay all of the Secured Obligations in full, the Debtor will
be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate
provided in the Loan Agreement and the cost and expenses of collection of such
deficiency, including, without limitation, reasonable fees of attorneys,
experts, and agents, expenses and disbursements.

         13. Attorney-in-Fact. The Secured Party is hereby appointed the
attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, of the Debtor for the purpose
of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement after an Event of Default and
taking any action and executing any instruments (including, without limitation,
financing or continuation statements, conveyances, assignments, and transfers)
which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable. The Debtor shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Secured Party from and against any liability or damage which it may incur in the
exercise and performance, in good faith, of the Secured Party's powers and
duties as such attorney-in-fact.

         14. Waiver, etc. The Debtor hereby waives presentment, demand, notice,
protest and, except as is otherwise provided herein, all other demands and
notices in connection with this Agreement or the enforcement of the Secured
Party's rights hereunder or in connection with any Secured Obligations or any
Collateral. The Debtor further consents to and waives notice of the granting of
renewals, extensions of time for payment or other indulgences to the Debtor or
to any account debtor in respect of any Receivable, substitution, release or
surrender of any Collateral, addition or release of persons primarily or
secondarily liable on any Secured Obligation or on any Receivable or other
Collateral, or the acceptance of partial payments on any Secured Obligation or
on any account receivable or other Collateral and/or the settlement or
compromise thereof. No delay or omission on the part of the Secured Party in
exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any
other right hereunder. Any waiver of any such right on any one occasion shall
not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right on any such future
occasion.

         15. Termination; Assignments, etc. This Agreement and the security
interest in the Collateral created hereby shall terminate when all of the
Secured Obligations have been paid, performed, and finally discharged in full.
In the event of a sale or assignment by the Secured Party of all or any of the
Secured Obligations held by it, such Secured Party may assign or transfer its
rights and interests under this Agreement in whole or in part to the purchaser
or purchasers of such Secured Obligations, whereupon such purchaser or
purchasers shall become vested with all of the powers and rights of such Secured
Party hereunder, and such Secured Party shall thereafter be forever released and
fully discharged from any liability or responsibility hereunder, with respect to
the rights and interests so assigned.

         16. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic communication)
and shall be either mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or
delivered by overnight courier service, to the applicable party at the addresses
first set forth above, or, as to each party, at such other address as shall be
designated by such parties in a written notice to the other party complying as
to delivery with the terms of this Section. All such notices, requests, demands
and other communication shall be effective on the date of first attempted
delivery.

         17.      Miscellaneous.
                  -------------

                  (a) The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are
         solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose
         any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe
         custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for
         monies actually received by it hereunder, the Secured Party shall not
         have any duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary
         steps to preserve any right of it or of the Debtor against other
         parties pertaining to any Collateral;

                  (b) No provision hereof shall be amended except by a writing
         signed by the Secured Party and the Debtor;

                  (c) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
         unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
         unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof;

                  (d) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to
         the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Secured Party and the
         Debtor;

                  (e) No delay, failure to enforce, or single or partial
         exercise on the part of the Secured Party in connection with any of its
         rights hereunder shall constitute an estoppel or waiver thereof, or
         preclude other or further exercises or enforcement thereof and no
         waiver of any default hereunder shall be a waiver of any subsequent
         default; and

                  (f) This Agreement shall be governed as to its validity,
         interpretation and effect in accordance with the laws of the State of
         New Hampshire.

                  (g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or
         the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the security interests
         granted hereunder to the Secured Party shall not be, and shall not
         deemed to be, an assignment of any contract or agreement of the Debtor
         which does not permit such an assignment under the terms and conditions
         of such contract or agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing
         shall in no manner limit the effect of the collateral assignment
         hereunder to the Secured Party of the accounts arising under such
         contracts or agreements for the payment of money now due or hereafter
         becoming due to the Debtor thereunder, or of the security interests of
         the Secured Party therein, or of the Secured Party's rights with
         respect thereto under this Agreement.
