The following is a statement of the rights of
the Holder of this Note and the conditions to which this Note is
subject, and to which the Holder hereof, by the acceptance of this
Note, agrees:

2.
Interest . Simple interest shall accrue at the rate of
ten percent (10%) per annum on the principal of this Note
outstanding during the period beginning May 31, 2005 and ending on
the date that the principal amount of this Note is repaid. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual
number of days elapsed. Accrued interest shall be payable in cash
annually on the anniversary date of this note; provided however,
that in the event the accrued interest on this Note together with
the aggregate accrued interest on all other outstanding notes,
including without limitation the notes issued pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement (such notes collectively being hereinafter
referred to as the " Investor Notes "), exceeds 50% of the
Company’s Operating Cash Flow during the twelve month period
ending on the last completed calendar quarter which preceded the

the Investor Notes, up to an aggregate amount equal to 50% of cash
flow, and (ii) by issuance to Holder of a new note identical in
form to this Note and in an amount equal to the accrued interest
not otherwise paid in cash. In the event that a payment date falls

Day, while taking into account such extra days in calculating the
accrued interest. In the event of an earlier conversion,
acceleration or payment of the Note, interest shall be payable in
cash on such date.
3.
Events of Default
. If any of the events specified in
this Section 3 shall occur (herein individually referred to as
an " Event of Default "), the Holder of the Note may, so
long as such condition exists, declare the entire principal and
unpaid accrued interest hereon immediately due and payable, by
notice in writing to the Company:

part of the principal or accrued and unpaid interest on this Note
after it shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or at a

liquidator, assignee, trustee or other similar official of the
Company, or of any substantial part of its property, or the making
by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the taking
of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such
action; or
(c) If, within sixty (60) days after the
commencement of an action against the Company, without the consent
or acquiescence of the Company (and service of process in
connection therewith on the Company) seeking any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or similar
relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, such

proceeding shall thereafter be set aside, or if, within
sixty (60) days after the appointment without the consent or
acquiescence of the Company of any trustee, receiver or liquidator
of the Company or of all or any substantial part of the properties
of the Company, such appointment shall not have been vacated;

(d) Any material breach by the Company of any
representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Purchase
Agreement or this Note.

have obtained stockholder approval to amend its Articles of
Incorporation to increase the number of shares of its authorized
Common Stock to account for the conversion of Series F Preferred
Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note.
In the case of
an Event of Default pursuant to (b) or (c) above, all amounts
shall automatically, without notice, become immediately due and
payable and collectible by Holder pursuant to applicable
law.
4.1
Conversion
. The principal amount of this Note,
or any portion thereof may be converted by the Holder at any time
prior to Maturity into the number of fully paid shares of the
Company's Series F Preferred Stock as is determined by dividing the
unpaid principal under the Note by the Conversion Price (as
hereinafter defined) in effect at the time of conversion. Accrued
but unpaid interest shall be payable in cash at the time of
conversion.

Conversion Price
. The Conversion Price (the
"Conversion Price") applicable per share of Series F Preferred
Stock shall initially be equal to $1.00, subject to adjustment from
time to time in accordance with Section 4.3 below.
4.3
Adjustments to the Conversion
Price . The Conversion
Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as

Adjustment Upon Stock Dividends,
Subdivisions or Splits .
If, at any time, the number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock
outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of

of Series F Preferred Stock, then, following the record date for
the determination of holders of Series E Preferred Stock entitled
to receive such stock dividend, or to be affected by such

appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Series F
Preferred Stock issuable on conversion of Note shall be increased
in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares.

Adjustment Upon

time, the number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock outstanding
is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Series F
Preferred Stock into a smaller number of shares of Series F
Preferred Stock, then, following the record date to determine
shares affected by such combination, the Conversion Price shall be
appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Series F
Preferred Stock issuable on conversion of the Note shall be
decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding
shares.
4.3.3
Adjustment Upon
Reclassifications, Reorganizations, Consolidations or
Mergers . If, at any time
when the Note is issued and outstanding, there shall be any merger,
consolidation, share exchange, recapitalization, reorganization,
business combination, or other similar event, as a result of which
shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same
or a different number of shares of another class or classes of
stock or securities of the Company or another entity, or in case of
any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company then the Holder shall thereafter have the right to
receive upon conversion of the Note, upon the basis and upon the
terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of
Series F Preferred Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon
conversion, such stock, securities,
