The following terms shall apply to this Note:
ARTICLE I
INTEREST & OPTIONAL REPAYMENT
1.1. INTEREST RATE. Subject to Sections 4.11 and 5.6 hereof, interest
payable on the principal amount outstanding under this Note shall accrue at a
rate per annum (the "INTEREST RATE") equal to the "prime rate" published in The
Wall Street Journal from time to time, plus two percent (2.0%). The Interest
Rate shall be increased or decreased as the case may be for each increase or
decrease in the prime rate in an amount equal to such increase or decrease in

rate. Interest shall be (i) calculated on the basis of a 360 day year, and (ii)
payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on December 1, 2005 and on the first
business day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter until the Maturity
Date (and on the Maturity Date), whether by acceleration or otherwise (each, a
"REPAYMENT DATE").
1.2. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION IN CASH. The Borrower will have the option of
prepaying this Note ("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") by paying to the Holder a sum of
money equal to the Applicable Principal Amount (as defined below), together with
accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or
payable to the Holder arising under this Note, the Purchase Agreement, or any

set forth herein, then such Redemption Notice will be null and void. For
purposes of this Note, the "Applicable Principal Amount" shall mean 125% of the
Principal Amount outstanding at the time of such prepayment.
ARTICLE II
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default beyond any
applicable grace period, the Holder may make all sums of principal, interest and

immediately due and payable. In the event of such an acceleration, (each
occurrence being a "DEFAULT NOTICE PERIOD") the amount due and owing to the

of the Note (plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees, if any) and (ii) all
other amounts, costs, expenses and liquidated damages due in respect of this

of a nature that it can not be cured within fifteen (15) days and Borrower has
taken reasonable steps to cure such default within fifteen (15) days, upon
written notice to and the consent of the Holder, the Borrower will have a
