ANNEX A
PROMISSORY NOTE
$130,000 [ __________ ]
For value received, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ ("Promisor") promises to pay to the
--------
order of Ranger Aerospace Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
-------
the aggregate principal sum of $130,000. This Note was issued pursuant to and
is subject to the terms of the Executive Stock Agreement, dated as of the date
hereof, between the Company and Promisor (the "Executive Stock Agreement").
-------------------------
Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used in this Note have the
meaning set forth in the Executive Stock Agreement.
Interest shall accrue on a daily basis on the outstanding principal amount
of this Note at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) 9.5% per annum, compounded
annually, computed on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days
elapsed or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, and shall be
payable at such time as the principal of this Note becomes due and payable.
Payments of principal and of accrued and unpaid interest under this Note
shall be due or payable on the earlier of (i) April 1, 2008 or (ii) the date of
Executive's Termination with Cause, except as otherwise provided herein or in
the Executive Stock Agreement of even date herewith.
Payments of principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest under, this Note
shall be due and payable upon Executive's receipt of proceeds from the transfer
of any Executive Stock (other than a transfer to a Permitted Transferee, as
defined in, and in accordance with, the Securityholders Agreement) in the full
amount of such proceeds or such lesser amount as is necessary to pay the full
amount of outstanding principal of and accrued interest under this Note and for
Promisor to otherwise fully and finally discharge its obligations under this
Note. Promisor may, at his option, pay all or any portion of the principal of,
and accrued and unpaid interest under, this Note at any time prior to the
maturity hereof without penalty or premium. Promisor may, at his option, pay
all or any portion of amounts due under this Note by surrendering to the Company
shares of Executive Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such
payment. Any payment hereunder shall be applied first to pay accrued and unpaid
interest under this Note and second to reduce the outstanding principal amount
of this Note.
- 94 -
The amounts due under this Note are secured by a pledge of the Pledged
Shares (as such term is defined in the Pledge Agreement, dated as of the date
hereof, between Promisor and the Company). Any cash dividends declared and paid
with respect to the Pledged Shares shall be payable directly to the Company and
shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal amount (and any interest
thereon) of this Note and any cash dividends paid to Promisor with respect to
the Pledged Shares will be promptly remitted to the Company and shall be applied
to reduce the outstanding principal amount (and any interest thereon) of this
Note.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the
Executive Stock Agreement, it is expressly agreed that the Company or any
subsequent holder of this Note shall look only to the Pledged Shares with
respect to aggregate Defaults in excess of the sum of (i) 25% of the original
principal amount of this Note and (ii) 25% of all interest (both paid and
unpaid) accrued on the Note, it being understood that, with respect to such
amounts, this Note shall be without recourse to Promisor with respect to
aggregate Defaults exceeding such amount.
In the event Promisor fails to pay any amounts due hereunder when due,
Promisor shall pay to the holder hereof, in addition to such amounts due, all
costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys fees.
Promisor, or his successors and assigns, hereby waives diligence,
presentment, protest and demand and notice of protest, demand, dishonor and
nonpayment of this Note, and expressly agrees that this Note, or any payment
hereunder, may be extended from time to time and that the holder hereof may
accept security for this Note or release security for this Note, all without in
any way affecting the liability of Promisor hereunder.
Any failure by the Company to exercise any right hereunder shall not be
construed as a waiver of its right to exercise the same or any other right
hereunder at any other time.
This Note and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the initial laws,
and not the laws of conflict, of the State of Florida.

--------- ----- ------ ---------
THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT is made as of March 7, 2000, between ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇

date, pursuant to which Pledgor purchased (i) 520 shares of the Company's Class
B Common Stock, $.01 par value per share and (ii) 78 Shares of the Company's
Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Pledged Shares"), for
--------------
an aggregate purchase price of $130,000. The Company has allowed Pledgor to
purchase the Pledged Shares by delivery to the Company of a Note (the "Note") in
----
the aggregate principal amount of $130,000. This Pledge Agreement provides the
terms and conditions upon which the Note is secured by a pledge to the Company
of the Pledged Shares.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein and other
good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and in order to induce the Company to accept the Note as payment
for the Pledged Shares, Pledgor and the Company hereby agree as follows:
Pledge. Pledgor hereby pledges to the Company, and grants to the Company a
------
security interest in, the Pledged Shares as security for the prompt and complete
payment when due of the unpaid principal of and interest on the Note and full
payment and performance of the obligations and liabilities of Pledgor hereunder.
Delivery of Pledged Shares. Upon the execution of this Pledge Agreement
-------- -- ------- ------
Pledgor shall deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Pledged
Shares, together with duly executed forms of assignment sufficient to transfer
title thereto to the Company.
Voting Rights; Cash Dividends. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
------ ------ ---- ---------
contained herein, during the term of this Pledge Agreement until such time as
there exists a default in the payment of principal or interest on the Note or
any other default under the Note or hereunder, Pledgor shall be entitled to all
voting rights with respect to the Pledged Shares and shall be entitled to
receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Shares. Upon the
occurrence of and during the continuance of any such default, Pledgor shall no
longer be able to vote the Pledged Shares and the Company shall retain all such
cash dividends payable on the Pledges Shares as additional security hereunder.
- 96 -
Stock Dividends; Distributions, etc. If, while this Pledge Agreement is in
----- --------- ------------- ---
effect, Pledgor becomes entitled to receive or receives any securities or other
property in addition to, in substitution of, or in exchange for any of the
Pledged Shares (whether as a distribution in connection with any
recapitalization, reorganization or reclassification, a stock dividend or
otherwise), Pledgor shall accept such securities or other property on behalf of
and for the benefit of the Company as additional security to the Company
together with duly executed forms of assignment, and such additional security
shall be deemed to be part of the Pledged Shares hereunder.
Default. If Pledgor defaults in the payment of the principal or interest
-------
under the Note when it becomes due (whether upon demand, acceleration or
otherwise) or any other event of default under the Note or this Pledge Agreement
occurs (including the bankruptcy or insolvency of Pledgor), the Company may
exercise any and all the rights, powers and remedies of any owner of the Pledged
Shares (including the right to vote the shares and receive dividends and
distributions with respect to such shares) and shall have and may exercise

upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Florida or
otherwise available to the Company under applicable law. Without limiting the

private sale or public auction, on not less than ten days written notice to
Pledgor, at such price or prices and upon such terms as the Company may deem
advisable. Pledgor shall have no right to redeem the Pledged Shares after any
such sale or assignment. At any such sale or auction, the Company may bid for,
and become the purchaser of, the whole or any part of the Pledged Shares offered
for sale. In case of any such sale, after deducting the costs, attorneys' fees
and other expenses of sale and delivery, the remaining proceeds of such sale
shall be applied to the principal of and accrued interest on the Note; provided
that after payment in full of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, the
balance of the proceeds of sale then remaining shall be paid to Pledgor and
Pledgor shall be entitled to the return of any of the Pledged Shares remaining
in the hands of the Company. Pledgor shall be liable for an amount not to
exceed 25% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Note for any

under the Note in full, including the fees of any attorneys employed by the
Company to collect such deficiency.

----- --- ---------- ----
attorneys' fees) incurred in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by

Pledged Shares to Pledgor together with all forms of assignment.
No Other Liens; No Sales or Transfers. Pledgor hereby represents and
-- ----- ----- -- ----- -- ---------
warrants that he has good and valid title to all of the Pledge Shares, free and
clear of all liens, security interests and other encumbrances, and Pledgor
hereby covenants that, until such time as all of the outstanding principal of
and interest on the Note has been repaid, Pledgor shall not (i) create, incur,
assume or suffer to exist any pledge, security interest, encumbrance, lien or
charge of any kind against the Pledged Shares or Pledgor's rights or a holder
thereof, other than pursuant to this Agreement and the Securityholders Agreement
of even date, or (ii) sell or otherwise transfer any Pledged Shares or any
interest therein unless all of the proceeds associated with such sale or
transfer are applied against the accrued and unpaid interest on and principal of
the Note at the time of such sale or transfer.
Further Assurances. Pledgor agrees that at any time and from time to time
------- ----------
upon the written request of the Company, Pledgor shall execute and deliver such
further documents (including UCC financing statements) and do such further acts
and things as the Company may reasonably request in order to effect the purposes
of this Pledge Agreement.
Severability. Any provision of this Pledge Agreement which is prohibited
------------
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Company shall not by any act, delay,
-- ------ ---------- --------
omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies
hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the
Company, and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Company
of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a
bar to any right or remedy which the Company would otherwise have on any future
occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the
Company, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
The rights and remedies herein provided and cumulative and may be exercised
singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided
by law.
Waivers, Amendments; Applicable Law. None of the terms or provisions of
------- ---------- ---------- ---
this Pledge Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except by an
instrument in writing, duly executed by the parties hereto. This Agreement and
all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder shall together with the rights and
remedies of the Company hereunder, inure to the benefit of the Company and its
successors and assigns. This Pledge Agreement shall be governed by, and be
construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida.

first above written.
