Date the principal sum of _________________________________ Dollars
($__________), together with interest payable as set forth herein.
Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the
rate of Twelve and One-Half percent (12.5%) per annum from the date hereof
through the last day of the ninth (9th) full calendar month hereafter, and
Sixteen and One-Quarter percent (16.25%) per annum thereafter. Payments of
interest shall be due and payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar
month that the principal amount hereunder remains outstanding. Payments of
principal shall be due and payable in six (6) equal monthly installments
commencing on the last day of the thirteenth (13th) full calendar month after
the date hereof, and continuing on the last day of each succeeding calendar
month until paid in full. All unpaid principal and any accrued and unpaid
interest under this Note shall be due and payable in full on the last day of
the eighteenth (18th) full calendar month after the date hereof (the "Maturity

Asset Purchase Agreement between Borrower and Lender. Interest on the principal
amount shall be compounded annually, computed on the basis of a 365-day year
and due and payable for the actual number of days principal remains
outstanding.
In the event of a default in payment hereunder, all principal and
interest then due and owing shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate (defined
below). As used herein, the term "Maximum Rate" means the lesser of Eighteen
percent (18%) or the highest permissible non-usurious interest rate. Neither
payment nor acceptance of any such interest shall constitute a waiver of
default or impair Lender's rights or remedies.
Borrower shall have the right and option, without notice, premium,
forfeiture or other penalty, to prepay the principal of this Note in whole or
in part at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
All payments of principal and interest under this Note shall be made

This Note and all obligations arising hereunder (the "Subordinated
Debt") are subordinated to any obligations of Borrower to Coast Business Credit

Agreement of even date herewith by and between Borrower, Lender and Coast (the
"Subordination Agreement"), and, in the event of any inconsistency between the

The rights and remedies of Xxxxxx provided for hereunder are
cumulative with the rights and remedies of Lender available under any other
instrument or agreement or under applicable law. The principal amount of this
Note shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at
any time any amount received by Lender in respect of this Note is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored or returned by Lender including without limitation
