         Line of Credit, upon acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower may

         the discretion of the Bank be conditioned upon the receipt by the Bank
         of an Application for Advance dated as of the date of request. The

         anyone reasonably believed by the Bank to be an officer or agent of the
         Borrower otherwise authorized to borrow funds from the Bank on behalf
         of the Borrower. The Borrower shall, upon the Bank's request,
         immediately confirm in writing to the Bank any such oral or telephonic
         communication. All Line of Credit Loans by the Bank and payments by the
         Borrower shall be recorded by the Bank on its books and records, and
         said books and records shall be conclusive evidence of the total
         indebtedness owed under the Line of Credit.

                  2.1.2 Interest. The Borrower agrees to pay interest on the
         unpaid balance of the Line of Credit Note outstanding from time to time
         from the date thereof until its maturity at a variable per annum rate
         equal to the sum of the Prime Rate plus One Hundred (100) Basis Points
         and after maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise or after the
         occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at a per
         annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus Four Hundred (400) Basis
         Points. These rates shall change from time to time effective
         concurrently with a change in the Prime Rate. Interest shall be due and
         payable commencing on April 7, 2003, and on the seventh day of each
         month thereafter until maturity of the Line of Credit Note, whether by
         acceleration or otherwise, and will be computed on the basis of a
         360-day year over the actual number of days elapsed. If the Bank has
         not received accrued but unpaid interest as of the due date thereof
         (after any applicable cure period), the Bank shall have the right to
         disburse to itself the amount of such interest as of the date thereof
         and to add such amount to the principal balance of the Line of Credit.

                  2.1.3 Renewal. Commencing as of May 7, 2004, the Line of
         Credit will be reviewed by the Bank on or before May 7 of each fiscal
         year while it is outstanding. If the Bank fails to renew the Line of
         Credit for whatever reason, the maturity and expiration of the Line of
         Credit shall be August 7 of such year in which such non-renewal occurs.

                  2.1.4 Reimbursements Due to Payments by the Bank. Any amounts
         which the Bank is permitted to pay on behalf of the Borrower pursuant
         to any of the Loan Documents and which in its sole discretion the Bank
         elects to pay, plus any other amounts to which the Bank is entitled to
         reimbursement from the Borrower, shall be invoiced to the Borrower and
         shall be payable Five (5) days after the date of the invoice. If not
         paid within such Five (5) days, such amounts shall be charged to the
         Line of Credit. Thereupon, the available Line of Credit shall be
         immediately reduced by a corresponding amount. Upon being charged to
         the Line of Credit, these amounts shall be considered to be principal
         and shall immediately begin to bear interest at the same rate and shall
         be payable at the same times as set forth in Section 2.1.2 hereof.

         Borrower with respect to the Line of Credit Loan generally shall be
         applied first to accrued interest thereon, then to any expenses for
         which the Bank is entitled to reimbursement pursuant to the terms of
         this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, and then to the principal
         balance of the Line of Credit Loan.

                  2.1.6 Collection and Application of Receivables. Unless the
         Bank otherwise instructs, prior to the occurrence of an Event of
         Default, or after the occurrence of an Event of Default but before the
         Bank exercises its rights of notification and collection described
         below, the Borrower shall make collection of all Receivables for the
         Bank, receive all payments thereon as the Bank's trustee, and
         immediately deliver them to the Bank in their original form. After the
         occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank or its designee may notify
         customers or Account Debtors at any time, and from time to time, that
         the Receivables have been assigned to the Bank and of the Bank's
         security interests therein, and may collect them directly and charge
         the collection costs and expenses to the Account.

         either as a result of a decrease in the value of the Borrowing Base or
         otherwise, the Borrower shall immediately repay to the Bank, without
         the necessity of notice or demand from the Bank, an amount not less
         than such excess.

         Allocation Manager Agreement whose terms shall prevail and control to
         the extent of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Section

changes in the value set forth have occurred subsequent to the aging or
valuation dates listed. If changes occur in these values so as to create a
Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Borrower will eliminate that Deficiency by
submitting sufficient payments on the Loans, and will submit an amended
Certificate reflecting the current values.

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BEASLEY FOOD SERVICE, INC., a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter referred to as "Maker"), hereby promises to pay on or before
maturity, whether by acceleration, expiration or otherwise, to the order of OLD
NATIONAL BANK, a national banking association having offices at 121 East
Kirkwood Avenue, Bloomington, Indiana 47804 (hereinafter referred to as "Bank"),
in lawful money of the United States of America, at the Bank's principal offices
or at such other place or to such other party as the holder hereof may from time
to time designate by written notice, the principal sum of One Million and No/100
Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or as much thereof as may then be outstanding and to pay
interest as provided below:

         (a)      Maker shall pay interest on the principal balance of this Note
                  outstanding from time to time at a variable per annum rate
                  equal to the sum of the Prime Rate plus One Hundred (100)
                  Basis Points, which rate shall change concurrently with the
                  Prime Rate. Maker shall pay accrued but unpaid interest on
                  this Note commencing April 7, 2003 and on the same day of each
                  calendar month period thereafter until maturity of the Note,
                  whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, at which time
                  the unpaid balance of principal of this Note, together with
                  all accrued but unpaid interest, costs and expenses, shall be
                  due and payable in full.

         (b)      After maturity or while there exists any uncured Event of
                  Default, or in the event of acceleration hereunder or the
                  exercise by the Bank of any remedies following any Event of
                  Default under the Loan Documents, the rate of interest shall
                  be increased to a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus
                  Four Hundred (400) Basis Points, which rate shall change
                  concurrently with a change in the Prime Rate, compounded
                  monthly until paid or until the Event of Default shall have
                  been cured.

         If Maker fails to pay any amount due hereunder, or any fee in
connection herewith, in full within Ten (10) days after its due date, Maker, in
each case, will incur and shall pay a late charge equal to the greater of Twenty
Dollars ($20.00) or Five Percent (5%) of the unpaid amount and an additional
late charge for purposes of defraying the expense incidental to handling on the
first day of each successive calendar month at the rate of Five Percent (5%) of
such overdue amount with a minimum charge of Twenty and No/100 Dollars ($20.00)
per month until any such installment, or portion thereof, has been paid in full.
After acceleration of repayment of this Note by the Bank, the payment of a late
charge will not cure or constitute a waiver of any Event of Default under this
Note. Provided, however, nothing contained in this Note shall be construed as a
waiver by the Bank or the holder of this Note of its option to declare a default
if any payment of any monthly installment, or portion thereof, is not made when
due, and the assessment of a late charge shall not affect the right of the Bank
or the holder of this Note to increase the rate of interest as provided if all
amounts are not paid when due.

         All amounts payable by Maker to the Bank under this Note shall be
without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with attorneys fees and
costs of collection. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a Three
Hundred Sixty (360) day year over the actual number of days elapsed. If any
payment of principal of or interest on this Note falls due on a day which is not
a Banking Day, the due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Day
and interest shall be payable at the applicable rate for the period of such
extension.

         All amounts which shall be paid with respect to this Note shall be
applied first to costs of collection and expenses reimbursable by Maker to the
Bank, secondly to the payment of interest due monthly on the

                                                                           CAB
                                                                        --------
                                                                        Initials

balance of the principal sum or so much thereof as shall from time to time
remain unpaid, and the balance of each monthly payment shall be applied on
account of principal.

         This Note evidences indebtedness incurred under a revolving line of
credit loan extended to Maker by the Bank pursuant to that certain Credit
Agreement entered into by Maker and Bank as of even date herewith, as the same
may be amended from time to time ("Agreement"), the terms and provisions of
which are incorporated herein by reference, to which reference is made for
definitions of capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein, for the
maturity of this Note, for the terms and conditions upon which payment of this
Note may be accelerated and all amounts outstanding hereunder declared
immediately due and payable, for the terms and conditions under which this Note
may be renewed or advances, payments, readvances and repayments may be made
during the term and prior to the maturity hereof for the interest rates and
repayment terms of this Note, and for the security provided for the payment of
this Note.

         This Note evidences a revolving line of credit ("Credit Line").
Advances under this Note shall be made only in accordance with a certain Cash
Allocation Manager Agreement (the "CAM Agreement") executed or to be executed by
Maker and Bank, the terms and provisions of which are incorporated into this
Note by reference, until such time as Maker delivers its written notice to Bank
of its determination to discontinue the cash management services provided to
Maker by Bank pursuant to the CAM Agreement. All advances hereunder shall be
effected by the persons authorized to write checks upon the "Accounts" as
described in the CAM Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the
provisions of the CAM Agreement, this Note, and any other document executed by
Maker or any guarantors, endorsers or sureties in connection with this Line of
Credit (collectively, the "Loan Documents"), the provisions of this Note shall
control. In the event that Maker delivers its written notice to Bank to
discontinue the cash management services under the CAM Agreement, then in such
event, the advances, payment and repayment terms of this Note as contemplated by
the CAM Agreement shall terminate and the original advance and repayment terms
as contemplated in this Note, the Agreement and otherwise in accordance with the
Bank's then current practices and policies shall resume as of the effective date
of Maker's notice to Bank. At the request of Bank, Maker shall execute a new
Promissory Note or amend this Note to effectuate the revised terms of the
advances, payment and repayment terms applicable to the Maker thereafter.

         Maker agrees to be liable for all sums either (a) advanced in
accordance with the CAM Agreement or the Loan Documents; or (b) credited to any
of Maker's accounts with Bank. The unpaid principal balance owing on this Note
at any time may be evidenced by endorsements hereon or by Bank's internal
records, including daily computer printouts. Bank will have no obligation to
advance funds hereunder if (a) Maker or any guarantor is in default under the
terms of this Note, any of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement that Maker
or any guarantor has with Bank (including the CAM Agreement); (b) Maker or any
guarantor ceases doing business or is insolvent; (c) any guarantor seeks, claims
or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such guarantors' guaranty of
this Note or any other loan to Maker extended by Bank; (d) Maker has applied
funds provided pursuant to this Note for purposes other than those authorized by
Bank; or (e) Bank in good faith deems itself insecure hereunder, the Loan
Documents or under the CAM Agreement.

         Upon a failure by Maker to pay when due the principal of or interest on
the indebtedness evidenced hereby or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
under or failure to comply with any of the terms, conditions, agreements or
covenants of any Loan Documents which secure this Note or any other documents or
agreements executed by Maker in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by
this Note, all of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and remaining unpaid
balances of interest and expenses shall, at the option of the holder and without
demand or notice, become immediately due and payable notwithstanding any term or
condition in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary. This Note may also be
declared due at the option of the holder hereof prior to its expressed maturity
at the time, upon the terms and in the manner

                                                                           CAB
                                                                        --------
                                                                        Initials

                                   Page 2 of 4

provided in the Loan Documents. Failure to exercise any such option shall not
constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any such option if Maker is in
default hereunder.

         Maker and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors hereof severally waive
demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of
protest, and expressly agree that this Note and any payment coming due under it
may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting their liability
hereunder. This Note shall be the joint and several obligation of all makers,
sureties, guarantors, and endorsers, and shall be binding upon them and their
heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns.

         The rights or remedies of the holder hereof as provided in this Note
and the Loan Documents shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued
singly, successively, or together.

         Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Loan Documents to the
contrary, no provision contained herein and no provision contained in any of the
Loan Documents which purports to obligate Maker to pay any amount of interest or
any fees, costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by
applicable law, shall be effective to the extent that it requires the payment of
any interest or other sums in excess of such maximum. In the event Maker shall
at any time following the date hereof pay any amount of interest or any fees,
costs or expenses which are in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable
law, such overpayments shall be deemed to be loans from Maker to the holder
hereof, which loans shall be due and payable by the holder upon demand by Maker
together with interest from the date or dates of such overpayments calculated at
the same rate as Maker is required to pay under this Note, and the repayment of
such loans by the holder hereof shall be the sole remedy at law or in equity of
Maker for such overpayments.

         The person executing this Note for and on behalf of Maker hereby
certifies that he is duly empowered by Maker and has been duly authorized by all
necessary action on the part of Maker to execute and deliver this Note for and
on behalf of Maker.

         Maker, together with any endorser, co-signor, guarantor or surety of
this Note, agree to pay, and save the Bank or any holder of this Note harmless
against, any liability for the payment of any costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys fees, arising or incurred in connection with the
enforcement by the Bank or any holder of the Note of any rights under this Note.

         Maker authorizes the Bank and its affiliates, without notice, to apply
any balances, credits, deposits or moneys of Maker in the Bank's possession to
payment of any of the foregoing. Time is of the essence of this Note and all
other obligations of Maker to the Bank or any of its affiliates.
