Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the Borrower and the Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”).

The following terms shall apply to this Note:

ARTICLE I

INTEREST & AMORTIZATION

1.1 Interest Rate and Payment. (a) Subject to Sections 4.9 and 5.6 hereof, interest payable on this Note shall accrue at a rate per annum (the “Interest Rate”) equal to the six percent (6.00%) subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.1(b). Interest shall be payable monthly in arrears commencing on March 1, 2004, on the first day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter (each, a “Repayment Date”), and on the Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

1

1.1 (b) On the last business day of each month hereafter (each a “Determination Date”), the Interest Rate shall be adjusted: if (i) the Company shall have registered the shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the conversion of the Note and that certain warrant issued to Holder on a registration statement declared effective by the SEC, and (ii) the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the principal market for the 10 trading days immediately preceding a Determination Date exceeds the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price in such percentages as outlined in the table below, the Interest Rate for the succeeding calendar month shall be decreased by one hundred basis points (1.00%) for each twenty five percent (25%) incremental increase above the Fixed Conversion Price as per the following example:

In no event shall the Interest Rate be less than zero (0.00%)

1.2 Minimum Monthly Principal Payments. Amortizing payments of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under this Note at any time (the “Principal Amount”) shall begin on July 1, 2004 and shall recur on the first calendar day of each succeeding month thereafter until the Maturity Date (each, an “Amortization Date”). Subject to Section 3.4 below, beginning on the first Amortization Date, the Borrower shall make monthly payments to the Holder on each Repayment Date, each in the amount of $151,515.15 , together with any accrued and unpaid interest to date on such portion of the Principal Amount plus any and all other amounts which are then owing under this Note but have not been paid (collectively, the “Monthly Amount”).

ARTICLE II

BORROWER PAYMENT OPTIONS

2.1 (a) Payment of Monthly Amount in Cash or Common Stock. Subject to the terms hereof, the Borrower shall have the sole option to determine whether to satisfy payment of the Monthly Amount on each Repayment Date either in cash or in shares of Common Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or a combination of both. Each month by the day prior to such Repayment Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Holder a written irrevocable notice in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto electing to pay the Monthly Amount payable on the next Repayment Date in either cash or Common Stock, or a combination of both (each, a “Repayment Election Notice”) (the date by which such notice is required to be given being hereinafter referred to as the “Notice Date”). If a Repayment Election Notice is not delivered to the Holder by the applicable Notice Date for such Repayment Date, then the Monthly Amount due on such Repayment Date shall be paid in cash. Any portion of the Monthly Amount paid in cash on a Repayment Date, shall be paid to the Holder an amount equal to (x) 101% of the principal portion of the Monthly Amount plus (y) any accrued and unpaid interest in satisfaction of such obligation. If the Borrower repays all or a portion of the Monthly Amount in shares of Common Stock, the number of such shares to be issued for such Repayment Date shall be the number determined by dividing (x) the portion of the Monthly Amount to be paid in shares of Common Stock, by (y) the Fixed Conversion Price. For purposes hereof, the “Fixed Conversion Price” means $             (which has been determined on the date of this Note as an amount equal to 110% of the average closing price for the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the date of this Note).

2

(b) Monthly Amount Common Stock Payment Guidelines. Subject to Sections 2.1(a) and 2.2 hereof, if the Borrower has elected to pay all or a portion of the Monthly Amount due on such Repayment Date in shares of Common Stock and the closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market (as defined in Section 4.7 hereof) for the trading day preceding a Repayment Date is less than 106% of the Fixed Conversion Price, then the Borrower shall pay the Monthly Amount in cash . Any part of the Monthly Amount due on a Repayment Date that the Borrower did not elect to pay in shares of Common Stock shall be paid by the Borrower in cash on such Repayment Date. Any part of the Monthly Amount due on such Repayment Date which the Borrower elected to pay in shares of Common Stock shall be paid within three (3) business days of the applicable Repayment Date.

2.2 No Effective Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower shall not repay any part of its obligations to the Holder hereunder in Common Stock if (i) there fails to exist an effective current Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with such payment, or (ii) an Event of Default hereunder exists and is continuing, unless such Event of Default is cured within any applicable cure period or is otherwise waived in writing by the Holder in whole or in part at the Holder’s option.

2.3 Optional Prepayments in Common Stock. Subject to Section 2.2 hereof, if the average closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market is greater than 115% of the Fixed Conversion Price for a period of at least five (5) consecutive trading days (the “Determination Period”), then the Borrower may, at its sole option (after 4:00pm on the 5^th trading day), provide the Holder written notice (a “Prepayment Call Notice”) requiring the conversion (at the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price) of the lesser of (i) all or a portion of the principal, interest and fees outstanding under this Note (subject to compliance with Section 2.3 and 3.2) and (ii) 30% of the aggregate dollar trading volume of the Common Stock during the Determination Period (as such volume is reported by Bloomberg L.P.), on the third (3^rd) trading day following the date of the Prepayment Call Notice (the “Prepayment Call Date”). . On the Prepayment Call Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issued in satisfaction of the principal and interest being prepaid (less the number of shares of Common Stock delivered or to be delivered to Holder in respect of conversions made by Holder during the Determination Period).

The Borrower shall not be permitted to give the Holder more than one Prepayment Call Notice under this Note during any ten (10) trading day period.

Any principal amount of this Note which is prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to constitute payments of outstanding principal applying to Monthly Amounts for the remaining Repayment Dates in chronological order.

3

2.4 Optional Redemption in Cash. The Borrower will have the option of prepaying this Note in full (but not in part) in cash (“Optional Redemption”) by paying to the Holder a sum of money equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the principal amount of this Note together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable to the Holder arising under this Note, the Security Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement (as defined in the Security Agreement) (the “Redemption Amount”) outstanding on the day written notice of redemption (the “Notice of Redemption”) is given to the Holder. The Notice of Redemption shall specify the date for such Optional Redemption (the “Redemption Payment Date”) which date shall be seven (7) days after the date of the Notice of Redemption (the “Redemption Period”). A Notice of Redemption shall not be effective with respect to any portion of this Note for which the Holder has a pending election to convert pursuant to Section 3.1, or for conversions elected to be made by the Holder pursuant to Section 3.1 during the Redemption Period. The Redemption Amount shall be determined as if such Holder’s conversion elections had been completed immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Redemption. On the Redemption Payment Date, the Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the event the Borrower fails to pay the Redemption Amount on the Redemption Payment Date, then such Redemption Notice will be null and void.

ARTICLE III

CONVERSION RIGHTS

3.1. Holder’s Conversion Rights. The Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert all or any portion of the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with interest and fees due hereon, into shares of Common Stock subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Article III. The Holder may exercise such right by delivery to the Borrower of a written notice of conversion not less than one (1) day prior to the date upon which such conversion shall occur. The date upon which such conversion shall occur is (the “Conversion Date”).

3.2 Conversion Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert pursuant to the terms of this Note an amount that would be convertible into that number of Conversion Shares which would exceed the difference between the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder or issuable upon exercise of warrants held by such Holder and 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower. For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The Holder may void the Conversion Share limitation described in this Section 3.2 upon 75 days prior notice to the Borrower or without any notice requirement upon an Event of Default. Notwithstanding the immediately foregoing, the Holder shall not, at any time, be required to accept (pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof) more than an aggregate of forty percent (40%) of the aggregate dollar trading volume of the Common Stock issuable Borrower to Holder hereunder or under any convertible security issued by Borrower to Holder (the “Forty Percent Limit”). The Forty Percent

4

Limit shall be deemed inclusive of all conversions made by Holder during each Determination Period.

3.3 Mechanics of Holder’s Conversion. (a) In the event that the Holder elects to convert this Note into Common Stock, the Holder shall give notice of such election by delivering an executed and completed notice of conversion (“Notice of Conversion”) to the Borrower and such Notice of Conversion shall provide a breakdown in reasonable detail of the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees being converted. On each Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall make the appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees as entered in its records and shall provide written notice thereof to the Borrower within two (2) business days after the Conversion Date. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied to the Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date (the “Conversion Date”). A form of Notice of Conversion to be employed by the Holder is annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

(b) Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Borrower will issue instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel within one (1) business day of the date of the delivery to Borrower of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s designated broker with the Depository Trust Corporation (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system within three (3) business days after receipt by the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery Date”). In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein the conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued upon the date of receipt by the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion. The Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Common Stock, unless the Holder provides the Borrower written instructions to the contrary.

3.4 Conversion Mechanics.

(a) The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price. In the event of any conversions of outstanding principal amount under this Note in part pursuant to this Article III, such conversions shall be deemed to constitute conversions of outstanding principal amount applying to Monthly Amounts for the remaining Repayment Dates in chronological order. By way of example, if the original principal amount of this Note is $5,000,000 and the Holder converted $250,000 of such original principal amount prior to the first Repayment Date, then (1) the principal amount of the Monthly Amount due on the first Repayment Date would equal $0, (2) the principal amount of the Monthly Amount due on the second Repayment Date would equal $530,030.30 and (3) the principal amount of the Monthly Amount due on the third Repayment Dates would be $151,515.15.

5

(b) The Fixed Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:

A. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Fixed Conversion Price or the Conversion Price, as the case may be, shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

B. During the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

C. Share Issuances. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.4, if the Borrower shall at any time prior to the conversion or repayment in full of the Principal Amount issue any shares of Common Stock to a person other than the Holder (except (i) pursuant to Subsections A or B above; (ii) pursuant to options, warrants, or other obligations to issue shares outstanding on the date hereof as disclosed to Holder in writing; or (iii) pursuant to options that may be issued under any employee incentive stock option and/or any qualified stock option plan adopted by the Borrower) for a consideration per share (the “Offer Price”) less than the Fixed Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issuance, then the Fixed Conversion Price shall be immediately reset to such lower Offer Price.

D. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to the unpaid Principal Amount and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

3.5 Issuance of New Note. Upon any partial conversion of this Note but no more frequently than once per quarter, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance

6

of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid. The Borrower will pay no costs, fees or any other consideration to the Holder for the production and issuance of a new Note.

ARTICLE IV

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

If an Event of Default (as defined below) occurs and is continuing, the Borrower’s rights under Sections 2.1, 2.3 and 2.4 shall immediately cease and be of no further effect until such time as the Event of Default has been cured, or has been waived by the Holder. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default beyond any applicable grace period, the Holder may make all sums of principal, interest and other fees then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder due and payable within five (5) days after written notice from Holder to Borrower (each occurrence being a “Default Notice Period”). In the event of such an acceleration, the amount due and owing to the Holder shall be 120% of the outstanding principal amount of the Note (plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees, if any). If, with respect to any Event of Default other than a payment default described in Section 4.1 below, within the Default Notice Period the Borrower cures the Event of Default, the Event of Default will be deemed to no longer exist and any rights and remedies of Holder pertaining to such Event of Default will be of no further force or effect.

The “Principal Market” for the Common Stock shall include the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ SmallCap Market, NASDAQ National Market System, American Stock Exchange, or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock, or any securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being listed or traded.

4.12 Cumulative Remedies. The remedies under this Note shall be cumulative.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder hereof in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.
