                 10% SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE DUE MARCH 28, 2007

       FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  Sonoma College,  Inc., a corporation  organized and
existing under the laws of the State of California (the "Company"),  promises to
pay to CAMOFI  MASTER LDC, the  registered  holder  hereof (the  "Holder"),  the
principal  sum of Two  Hundred  Seventy-Five  Thousand  and 00/100  Dollars  (US
$275,000)  on the  Maturity  Date (as defined  below) and to pay interest on the
principal  sum  outstanding  from time to time in arrears at the rate of 10% per
annum  (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of
360 days),  accruing from  September 28, 2006,  the date of initial  issuance of
this Note (the "Issue  Date"),  to the date of payment.  Such interest  shall be
payable on the date which is the earlier of (i) the Maturity  Date,  or (ii) the
date of any prepayment of principal  permitted  hereunder;  except that interest
for month in advance shall be paid on the Issue Date.  Accrual of interest shall
commence  on the Issue Date and shall  continue to accrue on a daily basis until
payment in full of the principal sum has been made or duly provided for (whether
before or after the Maturity Date).

       This  Note is being  issued  pursuant  to the  terms of the  Bridge  Loan
Agreement,  dated as of September 28, 2006 (the "Loan Agreement"),  to which the
Company and the Holder (or the Holder's  predecessor  in interest)  are parties.
Capitalized  terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
to them in the Loan Agreement.

       This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

       1.     The term  "Maturity  Date" means the earlier of (x) March 28, 2007
or (y) the date on which the Company  consummates an equity financing or funding
transaction in excess of

<PAGE>


$1,500,000,  whether or not such  transaction is effected in connection with the
current or future issuance of securities.

       2.     (i)    This  Note may be  prepaid  in whole or in part at any time
prior to the Maturity  Date,  without  penalty.  Any payment shall be applied as
provided in Section 3.

              (ii)   TIME IS OF THE  ESSENCE  WITH  RESPECT TO ANY  PAYMENT  DUE
HEREUNDER.  The Company shall be in default hereunder if any payment is not made
in a timely  manner,  without  any right to cure  unless  such  right to cure is
granted by the Holder in each  instance;  provided,  however,  that the grant of
such right is in the sole  discretion  of the Holder and may be withheld for any
reason or for no reason whatsoever.

              (iii)  If, at the end of any Trading Day, the value of the Pledged
Shares  (using the closing  price of the stock on such day) is less than 400% of
the aggregate  principal amount  outstanding on the Note, then the Company shall
within two  Trading  Days either (i) pay to the Lender an amount  sufficient  to
reduce the outstanding principal amount on the Note or (ii) provide the Lender a
first priority perfected  security interest in additional  collateral (which may
include  additional  shares of common  stock of the Company or other  collateral
acceptable to Lender in its sole  discretion) such that the value of the Pledged
Shares (plus the value of any additional  collateral delivered to the Lender) is
at least 400% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding on the Note.

       3.     Any  payment  made on  account of the Note shall be applied in the
following order of priority:  (i) first, to any amounts due hereunder other than
principal  and accrued  interest,  (ii) then,  to accrued  interest  through and
including the date of payment, and (iii) then, to principal of this Note.

       4.     All  payments  contemplated  hereby to be made "in cash"  shall be
made in immediately available good funds of United States of America currency by
wire  transfer to an account  designated in writing by the Holder to the Company
(which account may be changed by notice similarly  given).  For purposes of this
Note, the phrase "date of payment" means the date good funds are received in the
account designated by the notice which is then currently effective.

       5.     Subject to the terms of the Loan  Agreement,  no provision of this
Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,  which is absolute and
unconditional,  to pay the principal of, and interest on, this Note at the time,
place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, as herein prescribed. This Note is
direct  obligations  of the Company.  Any  payments  received by the Holder with
respect to this Note shall be applied in the  following  order of priority:  (i)
first, to any amounts due to the Holder under any of the Transaction  Agreements
other than interest and principal on the Note,  (ii) then, to accrued but unpaid
interest on the Note, and (iii) then, to principal on the Note.

       6.     The  obligations  of the Company  under this Note are secured by a
mortgage  executed  by the  Pledgors in favor of the Holder in  connection  with
certain real estate (the "Real  Estate").  If the Holder  forecloses on the Real
Estate, the obligations of the Company will be reduced only to the extent of the
proceeds actually realized from such foreclosure,  in the priority  specified in
Section 5 hereof.

       7.     CONVERSION.

              a)     VOLUNTARY CONVERSION.  At any time after the Original Issue
Date until this Note is no longer  outstanding,  this Note shall be  convertible
into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder,  in whole or in part at
any time and from time to time (subject to the  limitations  on  conversion  set
forth in Section 7(d) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering
to the Company the form of Notice of  Conversion  attached  hereto (a "Notice of
Conversion"),  specifying  therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted
and the date on which such  conversion is to be effected (a "Conversion  Date").
If no Conversion  Date is specified in a Notice of  Conversion,  the  Conversion
Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is provided hereunder.  To
effect  conversions  hereunder,  the Holder shall not be required to  physically
surrender Notes to the Company unless the entire  principal  amount of this Note
plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon has been so converted.  Conversions
hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding  principal amount of
this Note in an amount equal to the  applicable  conversion.  The Holder and the
Company shall maintain  records showing the principal  amount  converted and the
date of such conversions.  The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice
of Conversion  within 3 Business Days of receipt of such notice. In the event of
any dispute or  discrepancy,  the records of the Holder shall be controlling and
determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder and any assignee,  by
acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions
of this  paragraph,  following  conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid
and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated
on the  face  hereof.  However,  at the  Company's  request,  the  Holder  shall
surrender the Note to the Company  within five (5) Trading Days  following  such
request so that a new Note reflecting the correct principal amount may be issued
to Holder.

              b)     CONVERSION  PRICE.  Subject  to the  provisions  of Section
8(b), the initial  conversion  price in effect on any  Conversion  Date shall be
$0.90.

              c)     RESERVED.

              d)     CONVERSION LIMITATIONS; HOLDER'S RESTRICTION ON CONVERSION.
The Company shall not effect any  conversion of this Note,  and the Holder shall
not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to Section 7(a)
or  otherwise,  to the extent that after giving effect to such  conversion,  the
Holder (together with the Holder's  affiliates),  as set forth on the applicable
Notice of Conversion, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of
shares of the Common Stock  outstanding  immediately after giving effect to such
conversion.  For  purposes of the  foregoing  sentence,  the number of shares of
Common Stock  beneficially  owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon  conversion of this Note with
respect to which the  determination  of such  sentence is being made,  but shall
exclude the number of shares of Common  Stock  which would be issuable  upon (A)
conversion  of the  remaining,  nonconverted  portion of this Note  beneficially
owned by the Holder or any of its  affiliates  and (B) exercise or conversion of
the unexercised or nonconverted  portion of any other  securities of the Company
(including,  without  limitation,  any other Notes or the Warrants) subject to a
limitation on

<PAGE>


conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially
owned  by the  Holder  or any of its  affiliates.  Except  as set  forth  in the
preceding  sentence,  for purposes of this Section  7(d),  beneficial  ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the
extent that the limitation  contained in this section applies, the determination
of whether this Note is convertible  (in relation to other  securities  owned by
the Holder) and of which a portion of this Note is  convertible  shall be in the
sole discretion of such Holder. To ensure compliance with this restriction,  the
Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice
of Conversion  that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the  restrictions
set forth in this  paragraph  and the Company shall have no obligation to verify
or confirm the  accuracy of such  determination.  For  purposes of this  Section
7(d), in  determining  the number of  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock,  the
Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected
in (x) the  Company's  most recent  Form 10-QSB or Form 10-KSB (or such  related
form), as the case may be, (y) a more recent public  announcement by the Company
or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company's  Transfer  Agent setting
forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral
request of the Holder,  the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally
and in  writing  to the  Holder  the  number  of shares  of  Common  Stock  then
outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall
be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of
the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date
as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.  The
provisions  of this  Section  7(d) may be  waived  by the  Holder  upon,  at the
election of the Holder, not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Company,  and
the  provisions of this Section 7(d) shall continue to apply until such 61st day
(or such later date, as  determined  by the Holder,  as may be specified in such
notice of waiver).

              e)     MECHANICS OF CONVERSION

                     i.     CONVERSION   SHARES   ISSUABLE  UPON  CONVERSION  OF
PRINCIPAL  AMOUNT.  The  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  issuable  upon a
conversion  hereunder  shall be determined by the quotient  obtained by dividing
(x) the  outstanding  principal  amount of this Note to be  converted by (y) the
Conversion Price.

                     ii.    DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATE UPON  CONVERSION.  Not later
than three Trading Days after any  Conversion  Date, the Company will deliver to
the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates  representing the Conversion Shares
which shall be free of restrictive legends and trading  restrictions (other than
those required by the Purchase  Agreement)  representing the number of shares of
Common Stock being  acquired  upon the  conversion  of Notes  (including,  if so
timely elected by the Company,  shares of Common Stock  representing the payment
of accrued  interest)  and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued  and unpaid
interest  (if the  Company is required  to pay  accrued  interest in cash).  The
Company shall, if available and if allowed under applicable securities laws, use
its best  efforts to deliver  any  certificate  or  certificates  required to be
delivered  by  the  Company  under  this  Section   electronically  through  the
Depository  Trust  Corporation  or  another  established   clearing  corporation
performing similar functions.
<PAGE>


                     iii.   FAILURE TO DELIVER  CERTIFICATES.  If in the case of
any Notice of Conversion such  certificate or certificates  are not delivered to
or as  directed  by the  applicable  Holder  by the  fifth  Trading  Day after a
Conversion  Date,  the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company
at any  time on or  before  its  receipt  of such  certificate  or  certificates
thereafter,  to  rescind  such  conversion,  in which  event the  Company  shall
immediately  return the certificates  representing the principal amount of Notes
tendered for conversion.

                     iv.    OBLIGATION ABSOLUTE;  PARTIAL LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. If
the Company  fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such  certificate  or
certificates  pursuant to Section  7(d)(ii)  by the fifth  Trading Day after the
Conversion  Date,  the Company shall pay to such Holder,  in cash, as liquidated
damages  and not as a  penalty,  for  each  $1,000  of  principal  amount  being
converted,  $10 per  Trading  Day  (increasing  to $20 per  Trading  Day after 5
Trading Days after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such
fifth  Trading  Day  until  such  certificates  are  delivered.   The  Company's
obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion  Shares upon  conversion of this
Note in  accordance  with the  terms  hereof  are  absolute  and  unconditional,
irrespective  of any action or inaction  by the Holder to enforce the same,  any
waiver or consent  with  respect to any  provision  hereof,  the recovery of any
judgment  against any Person or any action to enforce  the same,  or any setoff,
counterclaim,  recoupment,  limitation or termination,  or any breach or alleged
breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any
violation  or alleged  violation of law by the Holder or any other  person,  and
irrespective  of  any  other  circumstance  which  might  otherwise  limit  such
obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection  with the issuance of such
Conversion  Shares;  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  such  delivery  shall not operate as a
waiver by the  Company  of any such  action the  Company  may have  against  the
Holder.  In the event a Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of
the outstanding  principal amount hereof,  the Company may not refuse conversion
based on any claim that the Holder or any one associated or affiliated  with the
Holder of has been engaged in any  violation of law,  agreement or for any other
reason,  unless,  an  injunction  from a court,  on notice,  restraining  and or
enjoining  conversion  of all or part of this Note  shall  have been  sought and
obtained  and the  Company  posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in
the amount of 150% of the principal  amount of this Note  outstanding,  which is
subject  to the  injunction,  which  bond  shall  remain  in  effect  until  the
completion  of  arbitration/litigation  of the dispute and the proceeds of which
shall be  payable  to such  Holder to the  extent it  obtains  judgment.  In the
absence of an injunction precluding the same, the Company shall issue Conversion
Shares or, if applicable,  ca
