UNSECURED SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, P.T. Centers Inc., a Texas Corporation (“Maker”), promises to pay to the order of Frank Wiley and Michael Yant (“Holder”), the principal amount of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($250,000) together with interest thereon calculated from the date hereof in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
 
1.   Asset Purchase Agreement. This Note (the “Note”) is being delivered by Maker to Holder in accordance with the terms of that certain Asset Purchase Agreement effective as of June 14, 2004 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement”), by and among, Maker and Holder. The benefits and rights of the Holder are subject to certain conditions and restrictions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, which conditions and restrictions may be enforced against the Holder.
 
2.   Interest. The principal of this Note from time to time outstanding shall bear interest on the basis of a 360-day year from the date hereof (with no compounding) at the rate of five and one-half percent (5½%) per annum.
 
3.   Maturity. The accrued but unpaid interest and outstanding principal under this Note shall be due and payable as follows $100,000 in 180 days from agreement date or completion of first round financing and $150,000 due at the end of 12 months from the date of agreement.
 
4.   Payment. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at such place as the Holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing to the Maker. Payment shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and the remainder applied to principal. Prepayment of this Note may be made at any time without the consent of the Holder and without penalty.
 
5.   Absence of Security.   Repayment of this Note is not secured by any of the assets or properties of the Maker or in any other manner.
 
 
     

 
 
6.   Subordination. Any and all liens, claims, demands or rights which Holder now has or hereafter acquires, by statute, contract, operation of law or otherwise, on or in any of the property or assets of the Maker shall be subordinate and inferior in all respects to the liens and security interest of any senior lender of Maker, whether such seniority is provided currently or is hereinafter created. Holder waives all rights which Holder now has, or may hereafter have, under the Note or other agreement to levy, claim or assert, or to seek to levy, execute or foreclose upon, any right or title to, interest in or lien upon any of the property or assets of the Maker, including without any limitation, any contractual or statuto ry liens.
 
7.   Transfer; Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may not assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer this Note without the prior written consent of the Maker. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Note may be transferred only upon surrender of the original Note for registration of transfer, duly endorsed, or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Holder. Thereupon, a new note for the same principal amount and interest (and reflecting accrued interest) will be issued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee. Interest and principal are payable only to the registered holder of this Note.
 
8.   Governing Law. This Note and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law thereof.
 
    9.   Notices. All notices, consents, waivers and other communications under this Note must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when (a) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) sent by facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt), or (c) when received by the addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case to the appropriate addresses and facsimile numbers set forth below (or to such other addresses and facsimile numbers as a party may designate by notice to the other party):
