Principal Amount: $500,000.00   Interest Rate: 4.750%  Date of Note:  April 23, 2004

PROMISE TO PAY.  American Trailer & Storage, Inc. (“Borrower”) promises to pay Commercial Federal Bank, a Federal Savings Bank (“Lender”), or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand & 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding, together with the 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 interest on April 15, 2005.  In addition, Borrower will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning May 15, 2004, with 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 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.

VARIABLE INTERST 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 most recent Prime Interest Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal available as of the particular Interest Rate Adjustment Date (the “Index”).  The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by the 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 0.750 percentage points over the Index, resulting inn an initial rate of 4.750% per annum.  NOTICE: Under no circumstance will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed applicable by law.  

PREPAYMENT.  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 or 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 in such a  payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under the 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 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: Commercial Federal Bank, A Savings Bank; Lee’s Summit Lending HQ; 740 NW Blue Parkway; Lee’s Summit, MO 64086.

LATE CHARGE.  If  a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged a 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment of $25.00, 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 interest rate on this Note 5.000 percentage points.  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.

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.

Borrower or 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 id false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.

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 of 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 the 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.

This includes all accounts Borrower holds jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future.  However, this does not include IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be prohibited by law.  Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender’s option, to administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender’s charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.
