CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.

        Debtor grants to Secured Party, its successors and assigns, a security interest in and against all property listed on any collateral schedule now or in the future annexed to or made a part of this Agreement ("Collateral Schedule"), and in and against all additions, attachments, accessories and accessions to such property, all substitutions, replacements or exchanges therefor, and all insurance and/or other proceeds thereof (all such property is individually and collectively called the "Collateral").

GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST: NEGATIVE PLEDGE

2


      Mascot, primary serial number ###-###-####, and intellectual property ("Security Interest"). A listing of the Debtor's non-financed fixed assets subject to the Security Interest is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

    2.
    Debtor will not pledge or create or allow to exist any lien, security interest or encumbrance of any kind on, any of its intellectual property (whether registered or unregistered), including without limitation all patents, patent rights, trademarks, trade names, service marks, and copyrights, and all technology, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business ("Negative Pledge").

III.
PRINCIPAL DEFERRAL

1.
Beginning on October 1, 2004, and continuing for the next nine monthly payment dates thereafter (the last being June 1, 2005, and the nine month period referred to as the "Deferral Period"), GE Capital will defer Debtor's obligation to make scheduled principal payments under the Equipment Schedules ("Principal Deferral"); provided, however, that such Principal Deferral is expressly conditioned upon the prior satisfaction of each of the following:

(a)
Debtor shall have closed a bridge financing facility of least $4,000,000 ("Bridge Financing"); and

(b)
Debtor shall have issued to GE Capital a five-year warrant to purchase 56,471 shares of Debtor's common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share.

2.
During the Deferral Period Debtor will make interest-only payments on the outstanding principal balance under each of the Equipment Schedules. The Deferral Period shall expire and payments of principal and interest will resume on the earlier of July 1, 2005 or the 1st day of the month following the closing of the Debtor's next equity financing equal to or greater than $10,000,000, excluding any converted Bridge Financing notes ("Qualified Equity Financing").

3.
Debtor shall continue to make all regularly scheduled payments of Principal and Interest until the Bridge Financing closes, and if the Bridge Financing does not close on or before December 31, 2004, then no Principal Deferral shall occur.

4.
If the Bridge Financing closes before December 31, 2004 but after commencement of the Deferral Period, the Principal Deferral shall be effective retroactive to October 1, 2004. Accordingly, per the terms of the preceding paragraph 2, Debtor has made one or more regularly scheduled payments of Principal and Interest during the Deferral Period, GE Capital will apply any portion of such payments previously applied to principal made to future interest only payments during the remainder of the Deferral Period. If such payments made by the Debtor are greater than interest due during the Deferral Period, GE Capital will reimburse the Debtor, within 15 days of the closing of the Bridge Financing, for the unapplied payment portion.

5.
After the expiration of the Deferral Period, the monthly payment of principal and interest due under each Equipment Schedule shall be adjusted to provide for payment in full of the remaining principal balance under each such Equipment Schedule, on a straight-line monthly basis over the then remaining term for each respective note.

6.
During the Deferral Period, the Debtor's obligation to make interest only payments as described in Section III.2. above, shall be in lieu of any payment obligations otherwise required under the terms of the Loan Documents.

3


    7.
    Debtor hereby agrees to pay GE Capital a restructure fee in the amount of Eight Thousand Four Hundred Seventy Dollars and Fifty-Eight Cents ($8,470.58), due upon the termination of the Deferral Period.

    8.
    During the Deferral Period, any pre-payments of principal, by the Debtor, pursuant to the Equipment Schedules, will not be subject to pre-payment penalties or premiums as described under the Loan Documents.

IV.
REFINANCING

1.
If Debtor secures a Qualified Equity Financing on or before July 1, 2005, GE Capital will seek credit approval to refinance the remaining outstanding principal due to GE Capital and the remaining outstanding principal balance due to Oxford Finance Corporation, in an amount not to exceed the aggregate outstanding principal balances due under each facility on October 1, 2004, over a period equal to the lesser of (a) twice the Debtor's cash runway as demonstrated by the Debtor and accepted by GE Capital, or (b) 36 months ("New Financing"). The New Financing would conform to the terms and conditions set forth in the existing Loan Documents between the Debtor and GE Capital and would be secured by a first priority security interest in all equipment currently financed under the GE Capital and Oxford facilities, respectively. Any approval of New Financing would be preceded by completion of a legal and business due diligence, as well as collateral and credit review and analysis, all with results satisfactory to GE Capital. Additionally, notwithstanding any prepayment penalties or premiums set forth in the Loan Documents, in the event that GE Capital does not agree to match the financing terms of another lender on or after Debtor's consummation of a Qualified Financing, Debtor shall be able to prepay all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of such date without incurring any penalties or premiums.

2.
If Debtor consummates a Qualified Equity Financing, on or before July 1, 2005, both the Security Interest and the Negative pledge granted by Debtor in Section II above shall be released. GE Capital will execute any and all documentation reasonably required by Debtor to evidence such release.

V.
REMAINING TERMS TO CONTINUE IN EFFECT

1.
Except as expressly modified herein, conditions and terms of the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their original terms and conditions.

2.
If this Modification Agreement is deemed unenforceable in any respect, then and in such case the parties agree that the Loan Documents shall be enforceable in accordance with their original terms and conditions as if this Modification Agreement had never been executed.

3.
It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with all applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Modification Agreement or the Loan Documents, in no event shall any of the foregoing require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any such excess interest is contracted for, charged or received thereunder, or in the event that all of the Account Balance shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Modification Agreement or the Loan Documents shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) neither Debtor nor any other person or entity now or thereafter liable for the payments shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, (c) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid Account Balance or refunded to the party having paid same, at the option of GE Capital, and (d) the effective rate of interest

4


      shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable law as now or hereafter consulted by the courts having jurisdiction thereof.

    4.
    GE Capital may, in its sole discretion, apply any payment received from Debtor at any time against any obligation due and owing by Debtor under the Loan Documents, as amended by this Modification Agreement, notwithstanding any statement appearing on or referred to in any remittance from Debtor or any prior application of such payment. In the event any bankruptcy proceedings are instituted by or against Debtor under any applicable bankruptcy law within 90 days after receipt by GE Capital of any such payment, such payment shall be deemed applicable to unpaid obligations then due hereunder in the inverse order of maturity.

    5.
    This Modification Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of all the parties hereto and their respective administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

        INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND, the parties hereto have executed this Modification Agreement and have caused this Modification Agreement to be executed by their respective duly authorized representatives as of the day first above-written.

GE Capital Account Numbers
4121384 - 001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 006, 007.

        THIS MODIFICATION AGREEMENT AMENDMENT (this "Amendment"), dated as of April 29, 2005 (the "Effective Date"), is an amendment to that certain Modification Agreement dated September 22, 2004 (the "Original Modification Agreement"), by and between GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION ("GE Capital") a Delaware corporation with a place of business at Lee Farm Corporate Park, 83 Wooster Heights Road, 5th Floor, Danbury, CT and BG MEDICINE, INC. (f/n/a Beyond Genomics, Inc.) (the "Debtor") a Delaware corporation, with a place of business at 610N Lincoln Street, Waltham, MA 02451.

RECITALS

        WHEREAS GE Capital, and Debtor entered into a Master Loan and Security Agreement dated October 3, 2001 ("Loan Agreement") for the purpose of providing equipment financing to Debtor. Debtor and GE Capital entered into seven Equipment Schedules to the Loan Agreement (collectively, the "Equipment Schedules") under which GE Capital advanced to the Debtor the aggregate sum of Four Million Five Hundred Ninety Three Thousand Two Hundred Three Dollars and Eighty-Seven Cents ($4,593,203.87). Debtor's obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by a lien on all equipment identified on the Equipment Schedules ("Equipment"), and a joint first priority security interest with Oxford Finance Corporation in all of Debtor non-financed/leased assets, excluding cash, cash equivalents, investments, any accounts receivable and intellectual property;

        WHEREAS Debtor has requested that GE Capital modify its obligations under the Equipment Schedules;

        WHEREAS GE Capital is willing to modify Debtor's obligations as requested subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;

        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and the covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which the parties hereby acknowledge, the parties hereby agree as follows.

I.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS

        Debtor does hereby represent, acknowledge, warrant and covenant to GE Capital that:

    1.
    The recitals set forth above are true and accurate;

    2.
    Debtor has duly executed the Loan Agreement, the Equipment Schedules and all other documents related to the financing of the Equipment (the "Loan Documents") and such Loan Documents set forth continuing obligations of Debtor, enforceable against Debtor in accordance with their respective terms;

    3.
    Debtor has adequate power and capacity to enter into this Amendment;

    4.
    The entry into and performance by Debtor of its obligations under this Amendment, and the Loan Documents do not (i) violate any judgment, order, law or regulation applicable to Debtor; or (ii) result in any breach of, constitute a default under or result in the creation of any lien, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon any unit of Equipment pursuant to any indenture, financing agreement, deed of trust, bank loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which Debtor is a party;

    5.
    There are no suits or proceedings pending or threatened in court or before any regulatory commission, board or other administrative governmental agency against or affecting Debtor,

      which might reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Debtor to fulfill its obligations under this Amendment and the Loan Documents;

    6.
    The most recent financial statements of Debtor delivered to GE Capital accurately present the financial position of Debtor as of the date of delivery, and there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Debtor since the date of such financial statements;

    7.
    Notwithstanding any provision of this Amendment to the contrary, Debtor will continue to fulfill any and all of its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, except as those duties and obligations are modified by this Amendment;

    8.
    As of April 29, 2005, there is an outstanding balance under the Loan Documents of One Million Five Hundred Seventy-Three Thousand Three Hundred Forty Nine Dollars and Thirty-Nine Cents ($1,573,349.39) including principal and any accrued and unpaid interest remaining to be paid thereon (the "Account Balance"). Such amount is in lieu of and in addition to any amounts set forth in the Original Modification Agreement.

II.
MODIFICATION OF TERMS UNDER THE OXFORD FINANCE LOAN

1.
Debtor will not modify its current amortization of loans due to Oxford Finance, Corporation in a manner that would increase the debt service under such loans.

III.
PRINCIPAL DEFERRAL

1.
The provisions of Section III replace in full the provisions of Section III of the Original Modification Agreement.

2.
Beginning on May 1, 2005, and continuing for the next two monthly payment dates thereafter (the last being June 1, 2005, and the two month period referred to as the "Deferral Period"), GE Capital will defer Debtor's obligation to make scheduled principal payments under the Schedules as outlined in Exhibit A attached hereto ("Principal Deferral"); provided, however, that such Principal Deferral is expressly conditioned upon the prior satisfaction of the following:

(a)
Debtor shall have made a payment to GE Capital of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) to be applied as a reduction of the Account Balance.

3.
During the Deferral Period Debtor will make interest-only payments on the outstanding principal balance under each of the Equipment Schedules. The Deferral Period shall expire and payments of principal and interest will resume on the earlier of July 1, 2005 or the 1st day of the month following the closing of the Debtor's next equity financing equal to or greater than $10,000,000 ("Qualified Equity Financing").

4.
After the expiration of the Deferral Period, the monthly payment of principal and interest due under each Equipment Schedule shall be consolidated into a single schedule and adjusted to provide for payment in full of the remaining Account Balance as scheduled in the amortization table presented as Exhibit A attached hereto.

5.
During the Deferral Period, the Debtor's obligation to make interest only payments as described in Section III.2 above, shall be in lieu of any payment obligations otherwise required under the terms of the Loan Documents.

6.
Debtor hereby agrees to pay GE Capital a restructure fee in the amount of Eight Thousand Four Hundred Seventy Dollars and Fifty-Eight Cents ($8,470.58), due upon the termination of the Deferral Period.

7.
During the Deferral Period, any pre-payments of principal, by the Debtor, pursuant to the Equipment Schedules, will not be subject to pre-payment penalties or premiums as described under the Loan Documents.

IV.
REMAINING TERMS TO CONTINUE IN EFFECT

1.
Except as expressly modified herein, conditions and terms of the Loan Documents as modified by the Original Modification Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their original terms and conditions.

2.
If this Amendment is deemed unenforceable in any respect, then and in such case the parties agrees that the Loan Documents shall be enforceable in accordance with their original terms and conditions as if this Amendment had never been executed.

3.
It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with all applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Amendment or the Loan Documents, in no event shall any of the foregoing require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any such excess interest is contracted for, charged or received thereunder, or in the event that all of the Account Balance shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Amendment or the Loan Documents shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) neither Debtor nor any other person or entity now or thereafter liable for the payments shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, (c) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid Account Balance or refunded to the party having paid same, at the option of GE Capital, and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable law as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction thereof.

4.
GE Capital may, in its sole discretion, apply any payment received from Debtor at any time against any obligation due and owing by Debtor under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any statement appearing on or referred to in any remittance from Debtor or any prior application of such payment. In the event any bankruptcy proceedings are instituted by or against Debtor under any applicable bankruptcy law within 90 days after receipt by GE Capital of any such payment, such payment shall be deemed applicable to unpaid obligations then due hereunder in the inverse order of maturity.

5.
This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of all the parties hereto and their respective administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

6.
This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

        INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment and have caused this Amendment to be executed by their respective duly authorized representatives as of the day first above-written.

    There are no suits or proceedings pending or threatened in court or before any regulatory commission, board or other administrative governmental agency against or affecting Debtor, which might reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Debtor to fulfill its obligations under this Amendment and the Loan Documents;

    8.
    The most recent financial statements of Debtor delivered to GE Capital accurately present the financial position of Debtor as of the date of delivery, and there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Debtor since the date of such financial statements;

    9.
    Notwithstanding any provision of this Amendment to the contrary, Debtor will continue to fulfill any and all of its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, except as those duties and obligations are modified by this Amendment;

    10.
    As of October 18, 2005, there is an outstanding balance under the Loan Documents of One Million Fifty Eight Thousand Nine Hundred Seventy Five Dollars and Seventy-Two Cents ($1,058,975.72) including principal and any accrued and unpaid interest remaining to be paid thereon (the "Account Balance"). Such amount is in lieu of and in addition to any amounts set forth in the Original Modification Agreement.

II.
MODIFICATION OF TERMS UNDER THE OXFORD FINANCE LOAN

1.
This Agreement is contingent upon the execution of a second Loan Modification Agreement between the Debtor and Oxford Finance Corporation (the "Oxford Loan Restructure"). The Oxford Loan Restructure shall consist of Five (5) monthly principal and interest payments of Forty-Five Thousand Dollars ($45,000) beginning November 1, 2005 and ending March 1, 2006 at which point the remaining loan balance as of March 30, 2006 shall be amortized on a straight-line basis through August 1, 2007. Except for any supplemental payments to debt service resulting from success fees related to Debtor's corporate service contracts or the sale of Equipment assets, Debtor will not modify the Oxford Loan Restructure in manner that would increase the debt service greater than the amortization set forth herein.

III.
MODIFIED AMORTIZATION

The provisions of Section III replace in full the provisions of Section III of the Original Modification Agreement.

    1.
    GE Capital will modify Debtor's obligation to make scheduled principal and interest payments under the Schedules as outlined in Exhibit A attached hereto ("Modified Amortization").

    2.
    Proceeds resulting from the sale of Equipment assets will be applied to the Account Balance by shortening the term remaining under the Modified Amortization with no reduction in monthly payments as stated therein;

    3.
    Debtor will pay to GE Capital 2% of success fees resulting from Debtor's corporate service contracts during the term of the Modified Amortization ("GE Capital's Share of Success

      Fees"); provided, however, that no fee shall be due under this paragraph 3 for any success fees earned after ninety (90) days from the date the Debtor has prepaid the Account Balance as set forth in paragraph 4 below. As Debtor receives success fees, 50% of GE Capital's Share of Success Fees will be applied to the Account Balance, with the remainder applied as earned income. If, however, by June 30, 2006, the Debtor has not obtained at least one of the following validations of its strategic direction: a) the AstraZeneca success fee or a similar success fee has been earned by Debtor, b) the Debtor has entered into additional contracted success fees of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), c) the Debtor has otherwise demonstrated reasonable business development progress as determined by GE in its sole reasonable discretion, or d) the Debtor has obtained continued investor support sufficient to extend Debtor's cash runway to March 31, 2007 or later, then the Debtor shall be in Default of the Loan Agreement and the then outstanding balance under the Loan Documents will become due in full;

    4.
    Debtor may prepay the Account Balance upon payment of the then outstanding Account Balance plus an additional sum as a premium equal to 5% of the prepaid Account Balance. Any amounts prepaid will be applied to the Account Balance by shortening the term remaining under the Modified Amortization with no reduction in monthly payments as stated therein.

IV.
GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST; NEGATIVE PLEDGE

1.
In addition to the Security Interest pledged under the Original Modification, Debtor hereby grants to GE Capital a joint first priority security interest with Oxford Finance Corporation in all of Debtor's cash, cash equivalents, investment property, and accounts, and authorizes GE Capital to take all actions required to perfect such security interest, including without limitation the preparation and filing of appropriate financing statements and/or amendments to existing financing statements.

2.
Debtor will not pledge or create or allow to exist any lien, security interest or encumbrance of any kind on, any of its intellectual property (whether registered or unregistered), including without limitation all patents, patent rights, trademarks, trade names, service marks, and copyrights, and all technology, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business.

V.
REMAINING TERMS TO CONTINUE IN EFFECT; MISCELLANEOUS

1.
Except as expressly modified herein, conditions and terms of the Loan Documents as modified by the Original Modification Agreement and Amendment 1 shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their original terms and conditions.

2.
If this Amendment is deemed unenforceable in any respect, then and in such case the parties agree that the Loan Documents shall be enforceable in accordance with their original terms and conditions as if this Amendment had never been executed.

3.
It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with all applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Amendment or the Loan Documents, in no event shall any of the foregoing require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any such excess interest is contracted for, charged or received thereunder, or in the event that all of the Account Balance shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Amendment or the Loan Documents shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) neither Debtor nor any other person or entity now or thereafter liable for the payments shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, (c) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid Account Balance or refunded to the party having

      paid same, at the option of GE Capital, and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable law as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction thereof.

    4.
    GE Capital may, in its sole discretion, apply any payment received from Debtor at any time against any obligation due and owing by Debtor under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any statement appearing on or referred to in any remittance from Debtor or any prior application of such payment. In the event any bankruptcy proceedings are instituted by or against Debtor under any applicable bankruptcy law within 90 days after receipt by GE Capital of any such payment, such payment shall be deemed applicable to unpaid obligations then due hereunder in the inverse order of maturity.

    5.
    This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of all the parties hereto and their respective administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

    6.
    This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

        INTENDING TO BE LEGALLY BOUND, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment and have caused this Amendment to be executed by their respective duly authorized representatives as of the day first above-written.

PROMISSORY NOTE

December 27, 2006
(Date)

        FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BG Medicine, Inc. a corporation located at the address stated below ("Maker") promises, jointly and severally if more than one, to pay to the order of General Electric Capital Corporation or any subsequent holder hereof (each, a "Payee") at its office located at 83 Wooster Heights Road, 5th Floor, Danbury, CT 06810 or at such other place as Payee or the holder hereof may designate, the principal sum of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), with interest on the unpaid principal balance, from the date hereof through and including the dates of payment, at a fixed interest rate of Eleven and Thirty-Eight Hundredths percent (11.38%) per annum, to be paid in lawful money of the United States, in Eight (8) consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest as follows:

Periodic Installment

  Amount
(7) Seven   $ 65,196.56

each ("Periodic Installment") and a final installment which shall be in the amount of the total outstanding principal and interest. The first Periodic Installment shall be due and payable on 2/1/07 and the following Periodic Installments and the final installment shall be due and payable on the same day of each succeeding month (each, a "Payment Date"). Such installments have been calculated on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30-day months. Each payment may, at the option of the Payee, be calculated and applied on an assumption that such payment would be made on its due date.

        The acceptance by Payee of any payment which is less than payment in full of all amounts due and owing at such time shall not constitute a waiver of Payee's right to receive payment in full at such time or at any prior or subsequent time.

        The Maker hereby expressly authorizes the Payee to insert the date value is actually given in the blank space on the face hereof and on all related documents pertaining hereto.

        This Note may be secured by a security agreement, chattel mortgage, pledge agreement or like instrument (each of which is hereinafter called a "Security Agreement").

        Time is of the essence hereof. If any installment or any other sum due under this Note or any Security Agreement is not received within ten (10) days after its due date, the Maker agrees to pay, in addition to the amount of each such installment or other sum, a late payment charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of said installment or other sum, but not exceeding any lawful maximum. If (i) Maker fails to make payment of any amount due hereunder within ten (10) days after the same becomes due and payable; or (ii) Maker is in default under, or fails to perform under any material term or condition contained in any Security Agreement, then the entire principal sum remaining unpaid, together with all accrued interest thereon and any other sum payable under this Note or any Security Agreement, at the election of Payee, shall immediately become due and payable, with interest thereon at the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate not prohibited by applicable law from the date of such accelerated maturity until paid (both before and after any judgment).

        In the event Maker (a) sells, leases, exchanges or transfers all or substantially all of the property, assets or business of Maker or, (b) is involved with an initial public offering of its shares or (c) is a party to any merger or consolidation, then Maker may prepay in full, but not in part, its entire indebtedness hereunder upon payment of the entire indebtedness plus an additional sum as a premium equal to the following percentages of the original principal balance for the indicated period:

    Prior to the first annual anniversary date of this Note: Not Applicable.

    Thereafter and prior to the second annual anniversary date of this Note: five percent (5%)

    Thereafter and prior to the third annual anniversary date of this Note: four percent (4%)



    Thereafter and prior to the fourth annual anniversary date of this Note: three percent (3%)

    and zero percent (0%) thereafter, plus all other sums due hereunder or under any Security Agreement.

        It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with the applicable usury laws; accordingly, its is agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note or any Security Agreement, in no event shall this Note or any Security Agreement require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any such excess interest is contracted for, charged or received under this Note or any Security Agreement, or if all of the principal balance shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Note or any Security Agreement on the principal balance shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, then in such event (a) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (b) neither Maker nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law, (c) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid principal balance or refunded to Maker, at the option of the Payee, and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable law as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction thereof. It is further agreed that without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received under this Note or any Security Agreement which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the maximum lawful contract rate, shall be made, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker or otherwise by Payee in connection with such indebtedness; provided, however, that if any applicable state law is amended or the law of the United States of America preempts any applicable state law, so that it becomes lawful for the Payee to receive a greater interest per annum rate than is presently allowed, the Maker agrees that, on the effective date of such amendment or preemption, as the case may be, the lawful maximum hereunder shall be increased to the maximum interest per annum rate allowed by the amended state law or the law of the United States of America.

        The Maker and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors or any others (each such person, other than the Maker, an "Obligor") who may at any time become liable for the payment hereof jointly and severally consent hereby to any and all extensions or time, renewals, waivers or modifications of, and all substitutions or releases of, security or of any party primarily or secondarily liable on this Note or any Security Agreement or any term and provision of either, which may be made, granted or consented to by Payee, and agree that suit may be brought and maintained against any one or more of them, at the election of Payee without joinder of any other as a party thereto, and that Payee shall not be required first to foreclose, proceed against, or exhaust any security hereof in order to enforce payment of this Note. The Maker and each Obligor hereby waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices in connection herewith, as well as filing of suit (if permitted by law) and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security hereof, and agrees to pay (if permitted by law) all expenses incurred in collection, including Payee's actual attorneys' fees. Maker and each Obligor agrees that fees not in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the amount then due shall be deemed reasonable.

        THE MAKER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS NOTE, ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN MAKER AND PAYEE RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN MAKER AND PAYEE. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT


CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.) THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS NOTE, ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS, OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS NOTE MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

        This Note and any Security Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the Maker and Payee with respect to the subject matter hereof and supercedes all prior understandings, agreements and representations, express or implied.
