If Axcess completes an offering of any of its securities and the aggregate proceeds to Axcess are at least $1,000,000 (“Transaction”) prior to                       _____, 200_, then Amphion will have the option to convert this note on the same terms as the completed offering.

Upon the occurrence of the Transaction described above, the principal amount and all unpaid interest, of this Note shall convert on similar terms to the Transaction. This Note, including the principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder, may otherwise be prepaid in whole or in part at any time at the option of Axcess, without premium or penalty.

Payment of the principal amount of this Note and any accrued and unpaid interest hereunder shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. Any such payment shall be paid by wire transfer of federal funds in accordance with the written instructions of Amphion or, in the absence of current written instructions, by check mailed to Amphion at the address last given to Axcess by Amphion in writing for such purpose.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Axcess hereby waives presentment for payment, demand for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest and notice of protest.

This Note is not assignable except by operation of law; provided, however, that Amphion may assign all or part of the Note to its stockholders in connection with the partial or complete liquidation of Amphion.

If the Company fails to pay the principal amount of this Note when due, , the entire unpaid principal of this Note shall forthwith become absolutely due and payable without any further notice, demand, protest or presentment whatsoever, all of which are hereby expressly waived. All expenses incurred by Amphion for the collection of the note will be paid for by Axcess.

If the loan is not repaid or converted prior to or on                       _____, 200___ then Axcess shall issue to Amphion a warrant to purchase Axcess Common Shares at the closing price on                       _____, 200_, equivalent to ten percent (10%) of the outstanding amount (i.e. amount outstanding divided by closing stock price on the 31^st times 10%). If the amount is not repaid or converted prior to                       _____, 200___ then Axcess will issue another warrant equal to an additional 10% and that will continue every thirty (30) days until Axcess has issued five warrants.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its or any other jurisdiction’s rules as to conflicts of law. Any judicial proceeding brought against Axcess to enforce, or otherwise in connection with, this Note shall be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in New York, and, by acceptance of this Note, Amphion (a) accepts, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and any related appellate court and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any final judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Note and (b) irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court or that such a court is an inconvenient forum. The prevailing party shall be entitled to collect from the nonprevailing party all reasonable attorneys fees incurred in connection with any action to enforce the terms of this Note.

Any provision of this Note may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing, signed by Axcess and Amphion.
