British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate for deposits
in United States Dollars (for delivery on the first day of such
LIBOR Interest Period) for a term equivalent to such LIBOR Interest
Period as of II :00 a.m. on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date.

discretion for then-applicable reserve requirements, deposit

Promise to
Pay .
For value received, Borrower (jointly and severally if
more than one) unconditionally hereby promises to pay to the order
of Lender, at its place of business located at 8080 North Central
Expressway, Suite 320, Dallas, Texas 75206, or at such other place
as the holder of this Note may hereafter designate, the principal
sum of up to FOUR MILLION AND NO/IOO DOLLARS ($4,000,000.00) or so
much thereof as may be advanced, in lawful money of the United
States of America for the payment of private debts, together with
interest on the unpaid principal balance from time to time owing
hereon computed from the date hereof until maturity at a per annum
rate which shall be, except as otherwise provided in this Note, the
lesser of (a) the Loan Rate in effect from day to day, or (b) the
Maximum Lawful Rate. Interest on this Note is computed on a 365/360
simple interest basis; that is by applying the ratio of the annual
interest over a year of 360 days times the outstanding principal
balance, times the actual number of days the principal balance is
outstanding, unless such calculation would result in a usurious
rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on a per diem
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days as the case may be. All past due
principal and matured unpaid interest, at Lender’s option,
shall bear interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate, whether or not the
maturity of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note has been
accelerated.

Interest
Rate .
The Loan Rate is subject to change as set forth in the
definition of “Loan Rate.” If an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the option to select LIBOR as a basis
for the Loan Rate shall be suspended until no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing. No LIBOR Interest Period may extend
beyond the Maturity Date. The determination by. Lender of the Loan
Rate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding in all respects. Notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, if(a) at any time, Lender determines (which
determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error)
that any applicable law or regulation or any change therein or the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance therewith by
Lender (i) prohibits, restricts or makes impossible the charging of
interest based on LIBOR, or (ii) shall make it unlawful for Lender
to make or maintain the indebtedness evidenced by this Note in
eurodollars, or (b) at the time of or prior to the determination of
the Loan Rate, Lender determines (which determination shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest effort) that by reason of
circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, (i)
deposits in United States Dollars in the relevant amounts and of
the relevant maturity are not available to Lender in the London
interbank market, (ii) the Loan Rate does not adequately and fairly
reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintain the loan, due to
changes in administrative costs, fees, tariffs and taxes and other
matters outside of Lender’s reasonable control, or (iii)
adequate and fair means do not or will not exist for determining
the Loan Rate as set forth in this Note, then Lender shall give
Borrower prompt notice thereof, and this Note shall bear interest,
and continue to bear interest using a substitute interest rate
designated by Lender based upon comparable information until Lender
determines that the applicable circumstance described in the
foregoing clauses (a)(i) or (ii) or (b)(i) ,
(ii) or (iii) no longer pertains.
