DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS. (a) During the term of this Note, beginning no later than March 1st of each year and until the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date on which this Note is converted by the Holders into the Conversion Ownership Percentage (as defined herein) pursuant to the terms of SECTION 4 hereof, or (iii) the date on which this Note is fully prepaid pursuant to SECTION 2 hereof, or (iv) the date on which this Note is terminated by the Company pursuant to the terms of SECTION 5 hereof, there shall be calculated by the Company a payment from the Company to the Holders of an amount initially equal to 19.9%, subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with SECTIONS 4(b) and (c) (the "PAYMENT PERCENTAGE"), of the Company's "Net Distributable Profits" (as defined herein) for the prior calendar year, which payment shall become due and payable no later than April 15 in each year in which that particular year's Payment Percentage shall be calculated, unless extended by consent of the Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event shall the Payment Percentage made pursuant to this SECTION 3(a) FALL BELOW 1% OF THE COMPANY'S Net Distributable Profits. (b) The payments set forth in SECTION 3(a) shall be applied first to accrued interest as of the due date of such payment and then to the principal amount of this Note.

CONVERSION. (a) The unpaid principal amount and accrued interest under this Note may be converted at any time prior to the Maturity Date (unless this Note is fully prepaid pursuant to SECTION 2 or terminated pursuant to SECTION 5) at the option of the Holders into a non-voting percentage ownership interest of the Company initially equal to 19.9%, subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with (b) and (c) of this SECTION 4 (the "CONVERSION OWNERSHIP PERCENTAGE"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Holders must deliver written notice to the Company of the Holders' intention to convert not less than Thirty (30) days prior to the contemplated date of conversion (the date of conversion is referred to herein as the "CONVERSION DATE"). -2- (b) In the event that the Company issues any additional ownership interest from time to time in a manner that dilutes the ownership percentages of the Company's owners and Holders pursuant to this Note existing immediately prior to such issuance, each of the Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage shall be reduced according to the following formula: W = X - (X x Y) where: W = The Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage immediately after the adjustment under this Subsection (b). X = The Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage immediately prior to the issuance of such additional ownership interest (as previously adjusted, if necessary, under this Subsection (b) and/or Subsection (c)). Y = The percentage by which each of the Company's owners is diluted by the issuance of such additional ownership interest. (c) In addition to the adjustment to the Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage which may occur pursuant to SECTION 4(b), in the event that the Note is reduced in any manner, the Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage shall be reduced according to the following formula: W = X - (X x Y/Z) where: W = The Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage immediately after the adjustment under this Subsection (c). X = The Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage immediately prior to such reduction of the amount due under this Note (as previously adjusted, if necessary, under Subsection (b) and/or this Subsection (c)). Y = The aggregate amount of reductions of the amount due under this Note since the date of the most recent adjustment to The Payment Percentage and the Conversion Ownership Percentage pursuant to the terms of this Section 4. Z = The aggregate amount due under this Note immediately prior to such reduction in the amount due under this Note. -3- (d) By way of example only of the dilution provisions set forth in (b) and (c) above, suppose: (i) the Company has two (2) ownership percentage owners immediately following the date hereof, each of whom owns 50%; (ii) the Company accepts a third owner or a new employee, and such third owner or new employee receives a 10% ownership percentage; and (iii) this is the first dilutive action following the date hereof. The formula set forth in (b) would be applied as follows: W = 19.9% - (19.9% x 10%) W = 19.9% - 2% W = 18% Suppose further that following the actions set forth above, the amount due under this Note is reduced due to partial prepayment, in accordance with the payments described in SECTION 3 or otherwise, from $5,000,000 to $4,000,000. The formula in Subsection (c) would be applied as follows: W = 18% - (18% x 1,000,000/5,000,000) W = 18% - 3.6% W = 14.4% (e) Before the Holders shall be entitled to receive the Conversion Ownership Percentage, (i) the Holders must surrender this Note at the executive offices of the Company, together with such instruments and agreements necessary to evidence, to the satisfaction of counsel for the Company, compliance with appropriate exemptions from registration or qualification under federal and state securities laws, and (ii) the Holders must execute all documents necessary to join the Company's Stockholders Agreement as a Stockholder (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement). Upon the issuance of such Conversion Ownership Percentage, this Note, and all collateralization and collateralization obligations shall be cancelled. (f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if at any time during the one year period following the Holders's conversion under SECTION 4 hereof, any of the events set forth below in SECTION 5(i) and (ii) occurs, then, within 90 days following the occurrence of such event, the Company shall have the right to purchase from the Holders, their successors or assigns, the equity interest of the Holders, their successors or assigns, in the Company, for a purchase price of $100.00. 5.
