Fort Lauderdale, Florida                                                 $25,000

does hereby promise to pay, pursuant to the terms contained herein, in lawful
money of the United States of America to Ronald Isriel, Esq., whose address is
30 S.W. 5th Street, Suite 1720, Miami, Florida 33130 for the order of L.A.W.
Properties Coral Springs, LLC ("LAW") as payee, the principal sum of TWENTY-FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($25,000.00). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have
the same meaning as set forth in the Settlement and Release Agreement by and
between LAW, Maker and Sandra Sowers dated as of February __, 2004.

         The principal amount of $25,000.00 shall bear simple interest at the
rate of ten (10%) percent per annum and shall mature on the 30th day of June,
2004 (the "Due Date"), at which time the entire unpaid principal balance,
together with the accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. This Promissory Note may
be prepaid in whole or in part at any time prior to maturity without penalty or
discount.

         LAW agrees and acknowledges that upon payment in full of the Note to
Ronald Isriel, Esq., that Ronald Isriel, Esq. shall hold such payment in trust
and shall not release payment to LAW until such time as LAW has delivered to
Maker and Guarantor a copy of a recorded Satisfaction of Judgment (which has
been filed in any jurisdiction in which the Final Judgment was recorded) and
both Maker and Guarantor have authorized Ronald Isriel, Esq. in writing to
release such payment.

         In the event that the Maker fails to make payment within five (5)
business days after the Due Date or is subject to the commencement, whether
voluntary or involuntary, of a bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding,
Maker shall be in default and LAW shall have the right to pursue any and all
legal and/or equitable remedies which may then be available to it against the
Maker including, but not limited to, accelerating the remaining balance due
under the Promissory Note together with applicable interest and declaring such
amount immediately due and payable. During the period of any default, the entire
unpaid outstanding indebtedness under this Promissory Note shall bear interest
at the highest rate permitted by law.

         Maker further agrees to pay LAW's reasonable attorneys' fees and/or
actual costs incurred by LAW in connection with the enforcement of this
Promissory Note in the event of the Maker's default. Maker hereby waives notice
of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, payment, protest, notice of
dishonor or nonpayment of the Note, suit or the taking of any other action by
the holder against the Maker.

         The waiver by LAW of the Maker's prompt and complete performance of, or
default under, any provision of this Note shall not operate nor be construed as
a waiver of any subsequent breach or default, and the failure by LAW to exercise
any right or remedy that it may possess under this Note shall not operate nor be
construed as a bar to the exercise of that right or remedy upon the occurrence
of any subsequent breach or default.

invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity,
legality and enforceability of any other provision hereof, and this Agreement
