         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and pursuant to the terms of this Promissory Note
(this "Note"), the undersigned DICKIE WALKER MARINE, INC., a California

with interest on the outstanding Principal balance from and after January 15,
2002 (the "Interest") accruing at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.
Interest, based on a 365-day year, shall be accrued for the number of days the
principal sum (or any portion thereof) is actually outstanding. (The outstanding
Principal and all accrued but unpaid Interest thereon is hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Indebtedness."). All amounts payable hereunder
are payable in lawful money of the United States of America. This Note may be
prepaid at any time.

         A. AMOUNT AND PLACE OF PAYMENT. Maker's payment of Principal and
Interest to Noteholder shall occur as follows: interest only shall be due and
payable quarterly, commencing on February 15, 2002, provided that in all events
the entire Indebtedness shall be due and payable upon the earlier to occur of
March 15, 2002 (the "Maturity Date"), or the Accelerated Maturity Date (as
herein defined). In all events, Interest and/or Principal shall be payable at
the address of Noteholder as provided herein, or at such other place as
Noteholder may from time to time designate by written notice to Maker.

         B. APPLICATION OF AMOUNT PAID. All payments on this Note shall be
applied first to the payment of accrued Interest, and, after all such Interest
has been paid, any remainder shall be applied to reduction of the Principal
balance.

         C. DEFAULT. Any one or more of the following shall constitute an event
of default ("Event of Default") of this Note, immediately upon the happening
thereof, except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, and at the option of
Noteholder, the entire outstanding Indebtedness shall become immediately due and
payable, without notice or demand, upon the occurrence of any one or more of the
following Events of Default:

                  1. Maker's failure to pay any amount under this Note within
ten days after written notice of nonpayment has been sent via U.S. Mail, postage
prepaid, given by Noteholder to Maker;

                  2. Maker's actual inability, or admission in writing of its
inability, to pay its debts, or Maker's failure to pay its debts generally as
they come due, or Maker's general assignment of this Note for the benefit of
Maker's creditors;

this Note, any subject matter hereof, or any fact material hereto.

         D. REMEDIES.

                  1. ACCELERATION. Upon any Event of Default of this Note, and
notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the entire Principal
outstanding and all Interest accrued but unpaid as of the date of such Event of
Default (the "Accelerated Indebtedness") shall become immediately due and
payable. From and after the date of happening of any Event of Default, the
Accelerated Indebtedness shall accrue at a default rate of interest (the
"Default Rate of Interest") equal to the lesser of (i) five percentage points
above the prime rate as quoted and in effect from time to time in the Wall
Street Journal, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by law.

                  2. COSTS AND FEES OF ENFORCEMENT AND/OR COLLECTION. Following
an Event of Default, Maker hereby agrees to pay reasonable attorneys' fees and
all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the enforcement of this
Note, the enforcement of any security interest with respect to this Note, and
the collection of amounts due hereunder, whether such enforcement or collection
is by court action or otherwise.

                  3. NO WAIVER BY NOTEHOLDER. The rights and/or powers provided

be construed to be a waiver of any right and/or power whether provided
hereunder, or otherwise provided at law or in equity.

         E. WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS. Maker hereby waives presentment, demand
for payment, protest of nonpayment, notice of protest, notice of dishonor,
diligence in collection, and any and all other indulgences, and agrees that at
any time or from time to time, without notice, the terms of payment hereof may

omission in exercising any right or power hereunder, shall affect the liability
of Maker hereunder.

         F. RIGHTS OF ANY LEGAL HOLDER. Any legal holder hereof shall have and

agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto.

                  1. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Maker hereby agrees to cooperate fully
and to execute any and all supplementary documents and to take all additional
actions which may be necessary or appropriate in order to give full force and
effect to the terms and intent of this Note and Pledge.

         H. CHOICE OF LAW AND FORUM SELECTION. The rights and obligations of the

interpreted and otherwise determined in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, and Maker hereby agrees that the federal and state courts located in
the State of California shall have subject matter jurisdiction to entertain any
action brought to enforce, determine or collect upon this Note, any constituent
right provided herein, and/or any dispute arising herefrom, and, further
