(a) The "Prime Rate" is the floating annual rate of interest that is published as such in the Money Rates Section of The Wall Street Journal and is ----------------------- sometimes used by the Bank as a reference base with respect to different rates charged to borrowers. The Prime Rate shall change simultaneously and automatically upon any change in such Prime Rate. The Bank's determination and designation from time to time of the referenced rate shall not in any way preclude the Bank from making loans to other borrowers at a rate which is higher or lower than or different from the Prime Rate. (b) Interest on this Note shall be due and payable monthly in arrears commencing on October 1, 1997, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the Bank's credit availability evidenced by this Note has expired or been terminated, and the principal amount of and all accrued interest with regard to this Note have been paid in full (it being understood that interest shall again accrue upon any subsequent borrowing under the Line of Credit). (c) Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed (365/360 or 366/360 as appropriate).

(e) Upon the occurrence of a monetary default hereunder, the rate of interest shall be increased to a rate equal to two percent (2%) above the then current rate of interest specified herein, payable on the date of default (the "Default Rate"). Interest shall continue to accrue at the Default Rate, and continue to be paid even after default, maturity, acceleration, recovery of judgment, bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding of any kind, until such monetary default has been cured. (f) If any of the aforesaid payments of interest shall become overdue for a period in excess of ten (10) days, Maker shall pay the Bank a "late charge" of five percent (5%) of the monthly interest payment then past due. (g) All payments of principal and interest with regard to this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds at the Bank's office at 4 Sentry Parkway, Suite 200, P.O.
