               Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any payments are

Management Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "Gardner Note"), then payments

on this Note will be applied first to any costs and expenses (including
attorneys' fees as provided in paragraph 9) incurred by Holder in connection
with the collection of amounts owing pursuant to this Note, then to accrued
interest, and then to reduction of principal, or as otherwise determined at
Holder's discretion. The loan proceeds represented by this Note shall be

<PAGE>   2

a separate Security Agreement of even date herewith duly executed by Maker and
Holder, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A."

        4. Right of Conversion.

                4.1 Election Right for Conversion Into Common Stock. This Note,
        together with all accrued interest (the "Repayment Amount"), shall at
        any time prior to the Maturity Date may be converted in its entirety
        upon the election of the Holder into fully paid and non- assessable
        shares of Common Stock of SportsNuts.com International, Inc. (the
        "Company") at a conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) $0.25 per
        share, or (ii) the private placement offering price for the Company's
        Common Stock between the date hereof and the Maturity Date.

                4.2 Effect of Election to Convert. Election by the Holder to
        convert the Repayment Amount into Common Stock shall be effective only
        as to the conversion of all, but not less than all, of the total
        principal amount of the Note plus all interest and other amounts then
        outstanding. Such election shall be effected by the Holder delivering to
        the Company this Note together with a written statement electing such
        conversion. Such conversion shall be effective as of the date on which
        the Company receives such written statement.

                4.3 Mechanics of Conversion. Within two (2) business days after
        receiving the Holder's written election to convert and this Note, the
        Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or
        certificates, registered in the name of Holder, for the number of full
        shares of Common Stock to which Holder is entitled bearing such
        restrictive legends as may be required by federal and state securities
        laws. To the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to
        have been effected as of the close of business on the date on which the
        Holder shall have elected to such conversion. At the time of the
        issuance of the certificate for the shares of Common Stock, the rights
        of the Holder of the Note as such Holder shall cease, and the Holder
        shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the
        shares of Common Stock received upon conversion.

                4.4 Taxes on Conversion. The issue of stock certificates on
        conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder for
        any tax in respect of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however,
        be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any
        transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Common Stock in any name
        other than that of the Holder of this Note, and the Company shall not be
        required to issue or deliver any certificate in respect of such Common
        Stock unless and until the person or persons requesting the issuance
        thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall
        have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has
        been paid.

                4.5 No Rights as Stockholder. Prior to the conversion of the
        Note, the Holder shall not be entitled to any right as a stockholder,
        including without limitation the right to

                                        2

<PAGE>   3

        vote or to receive dividends or other distribution, and shall not be
        entitled to receive any notice of any proceeding of the Company, except
        as provided herein.

        5. Adjustments. If at any time after this Note is executed, the Company
(i) declares a dividend or makes a distribution on the outstanding shares of its
Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
greater number of shares, (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares, (iv) effects a capital reorganization,
reclassification, or change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other
than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par
value to par value), or (v) otherwise changes into the same or different number
of shares of any class or classes of stock, the Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of this Note, the conversion price per share in effect at the time of
the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such
subdivision, combination or reclassification reorganization, other similar
changes in the capitalization of the Company shall be proportionately adjusted
so that the Holder of this Note after such time shall be entitled to receive the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder would have owned or
been entitled to receive had this Debenture been converted immediately prior to
such record date or effective date and the resulting Common Stock had been
subject to such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or
reclassification or reorganization. Such adjustment shall be made successively
whenever any event specified above shall occur. No adjustments in respect of
interest or dividends, other than a stock dividend, will be made upon
conversion, but a payment in cash will be made by the Company in lieu of the
issuance of any such fractional shares.

        6. Registration Rights. If the Company shall file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register shares of its
Common Stock, excluding an S-8 or S-4 registration statement, the Company agrees
to register the shares of Common Stock issuable from the conversion of this
Note, subject to any underwriter's cutback or limitation in connection
therewith.

                7.1 Representations and Warranties. The Maker represents and

                applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
                reorganization or other similar law, or appointing a receiver,
                liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or
                similar official) of the Maker or for any substantial part of

                insolvent, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking
                possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
                custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Maker
                or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it
                of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the taking of

        often as occasion therefor shall arise. Any act, omission or commission
        of Holder, including, specifically, any failure to exercise any right,
        remedy or recourse, shall be released and be effected only through a
        written document executed by Holder and then only to the extent
        specifically recited therein. A waiver or release with reference to any
        one event shall not be construed as continuing, as a bar to, or as a
        waiver or release of, any subsequent right, remedy or recourse as to a
        subsequent event.

every kind incurred by Holder in connection with such collection or the

                           Facsimile No.: 650-559-9993

Notice shall be deemed properly given on the date received or postmarked,
whichever is earlier.

        11. Transfer. Provided that Maker's written consent is not provided
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), this Note may not be sold,
pledged, hypothecated, or transferred in any manner, and is a non-negotiable
instrument having no value whatsoever except to the Holder while the Note bears
a principal balance outstanding.

        12. Waiver. Maker, for itself, its successors, transferees and assigns
and all guarantors, endorsers and signers, hereby waives all valuation and
appraisement privileges, presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice of
protest and nonpayment, dishonor and notice of dishonor, bringing of suit, lack

        13. Illegality and Severability. In no event shall the amount paid or
agreed to be paid hereunder (including all interest and the aggregate of any
other amounts taken, reserved or charged pursuant to this Note which under
applicable law is deemed to constitute interest on the indebtedness evidenced by
this Note) exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable law; and
if under any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Note
at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve
transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable law, then ipso
facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such
validity, and if from any circumstances Holder should receive as interest an
amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate allowable under law, such
amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of
the unpaid principal balance due under this Note and not to the payment of
interest, or if such excess interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal,
the excess shall be refunded to Maker. If any provision of this Note or any
payments pursuant to the terms hereof shall be invalid or unenforceable to any
extent, the remaining provisions of this Note and any other payments hereunder
shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforceable to the greatest extent
permitted by law.

        14. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed under
the laws of the State of Utah without regard to the conflict of laws provisions.

        15. Venue and Jurisdiction. Any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Note shall be brought in the federal or state courts in the
State of Utah, and Maker and Holder each consent to the jurisdiction of said
courts.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Note as of the date
first above written.

Confidential Information and to use Employee's best efforts to prevent the
disclosure or use of any Confidential Information either during the term of
employment or consultancy or at any time thereafter, except as may be necessary
in the ordinary course of performing Employee's duties under this Agreement.
Upon termination of Employee's employment or consultancy with the Company for
any reason, Employee shall promptly deliver to the Company all materials,
documents, data, equipment, and other physical property of any nature containing
or pertaining to any Confidential Information, and Employee shall not take from
the Company's premises any such material or equipment or any reproduction
thereof.

8.      Invention Assignment

        8.1 Disclosure of Inventions. Employee hereby agrees that if he
conceives, learns, makes, or first reduces to practice, either alone or jointly
with others, any inventions, improvements, original works of authorship,
formulas, processes, computer programs, sales or marketing techniques, know-how,
or data (hereinafter referred to as "Inventions") relating to the business
and/or technology of the Company while he is employed by the Company, he will
promptly disclose such Inventions to the Company or to any person designated by
the Company.

        8.2 Ownership, Assignment, Assistance, and Power of Attorney. All
Inventions relating to the Company's business, operations, or research and
development which result from work performed by Employee for the Company shall
be the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and the Company shall have
the right to use and to apply for patents, copyrights, or other statutory or
common law protections for such Inventions in any country. Employee hereby
assigns to the Company any rights which Employee has acquired or which Employee
may acquire in such Inventions. Furthermore, Employee agrees to assist the
Company in every proper way at the Company's expense to obtain patents,
copyrights, and other statutory or common law protections for such Inventions in
any country and to enforce such rights from time to time. Specifically, Employee
agrees to execute all documents as the Company may use in applying for and in
obtaining or enforcing such patents, copyrights, and other statutory or common
law protections, together with any assignments thereof to the Company or to any
person designated by the Company. Employee's obligations under this paragraph
shall continue beyond the termination of his employment with the Company, but
the Company shall compensate Employee at a reasonable rate after such
termination for the time which Employee actually spends at the Company's request
in rendering such assistance. In the event the Company is unable for any reason
whatsoever to secure Employee's signature to any lawful document required to
apply for or to enforce any patent, copyright, or other statutory or common law
protections for such Inventions, Employee hereby irrevocably and severally
designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents
as Employee's agents and attorneys-in-fact to act in Employee's stead to execute
such documents and to do such other lawful and necessary acts to further the
issuance or prosecution of such patents, copyrights, and other statutory or
common law protections, and Employee hereby declares that such documents or such
acts shall have the same legal force and effect as if such documents were
executed by Employee or such acts were done by Employee.

        8.3 Exclusion of Prior Inventions. Employee has identified on Exhibit B
attached hereto a complete list of all Inventions which Employee has conceived,
learned, made or first reduced to practice, either alone or jointly with others,
prior to Employee's employment with the Company and which Employee desires to
exclude from the operation of this Agreement. If no Inventions are listed on
this Exhibit B, Employee represents that he has made no such Inventions at the
time of signing this Agreement.

9.      No Conflicts

        Employee hereby represents that, to the best of Employee's knowledge,
Employee's performance of all the terms of this Agreement and work as an
employee or consultant of the Company does not breach any oral or written
agreement which Employee has made prior to employment with the Company
hereunder.

10.     Equitable Remedies

        Employee acknowledges that Employee's obligations hereunder are special,
unique, and extraordinary, and that a breach by Employee of certain provisions
of this Agreement, including without limitation Sections 7 and 8 above, would
cause irreparable harm to the Company for which damages at law would be an
inadequate remedy. Accordingly, Employee hereby agrees that in any such instance
the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in
addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled. All of the rights of
the Company from whatever source derived, shall be cumulative and not
alternative.

the entity to which this Agreement is assigned.

13.     Resolution of Disputes

        The Parties hereby agree that all disputes concerning this Agreement

to subject any such dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the rules

agree that the Company and Employee shall equally bear the costs of any such
arbitration under this Section 13.

agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter covered
herein and supersedes all prior oral or written understandings and agreements
