“Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of
International Management Group GmbH, a company organized under the
laws of Germany, or registered assigns (the “Holder”),

“Principal”), with interest thereon, on the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Share
Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the
Company and the Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”)

.
The Company is
permitted to deduct from the Principal under this Note

Principal amount, (ii) reduced Principal payment amounts under
Section 1(b) and (iii) a reduced Prepayment Amount under
Section 2. Simultaneously with the delivery by the Company to
the Holder of a new convertible promissory note substantially in

automatically, without any action by the Company or the Holder, be
cancelled and replaced by such new convertible promissory note, and
all obligations hereunder shall be extinguished.
Payments of
principal of, interest on and any other amounts with respect to
this Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) are to
be made in Euros.

any provision of this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any other
agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to
pay, and the Holder shall not be permitted to contract for, take,
reserve, charge or receive, any compensation that constitutes
interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum amount of
interest permitted by applicable law.
The original
Holder of this Note will be deemed, by its acceptance hereof, to
have agreed to the provisions and to have made the representations
and warranties set forth in clause 5 of the Purchase
Agreement.

(a) This
Note shall bear interest on Principal amounts outstanding from time
to time commencing on April 1, 2010 until the Maturity Date at the
rate of six and one-half percent (6.5%) per annum

calculated on the basis of a 360-day year counting the actual days
elapsed and shall be calculated quarterly with an intra-period pro
rata calculation.
(b) On
each of the following dates (or if such date is not a business day,
the business day immediately following such date) (each, a
“Payment Date”) there shall become due and payable an
aggregate Principal amount of EUR 277,083.33:
Each such
payment shall be without premium, but together with accrued
Interest on such Principal amount to the date of such payment,
unless the Company shall elect to add such accrued Interest to the
Principal of the Note pursuant to Section 1(c). On March
31, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”), there shall become due

Note (such amount “Additional Principal”) on each
Payment Date (but not the Maturity Date).
2. Prepayment

Principal balance of this Note, may, at the Company’s option,
be prepaid in whole, whether through a conversion in accordance

days’ prior written notice to the Holder; provided, however,
that if the Company elects to so prepay or convert
the unpaid Principal balance of this Note, for the purposes of this
Section 2, the unpaid Principal balance of this Note shall be
discounted by 18% and the total amount of unpaid Principal the
Company shall be required to pay to the Holder
hereunder shall equal EUR 1,363,250 minus any amounts paid by
the Company to the Holder under Section 1 (the
“Prepayment Amount”). Payment by the Company
of the Prepayment Amount in accordance with this Section 2 shall
constitute full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations
hereunder.

Agreement shall be determined to have been false or misleading in
any material respect as of the date made; or
(e) Any
failure by the Company to perform or observe any of its covenants
contained in the Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that with
respect to any such non-compliance which is capable of being cured,
such non-compliance shall not constitute an Event of Default unless
and until such non-compliance remains uncured for a period of
thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such non-compliance;
or
(f) If
a final judgment or judgments in an aggregate uninsured amount in
excess of EUR 1,000,000 shall be rendered against the
