1. INTEREST RATE.

The unpaid principal under this Promissory Note shall bear interest at

failure to pay amounts due on the Maturity Date, the interest rate on this Note
shall increase to fifteen percent (15%) per annum.

days elapsed. Interest not paid when due shall be added to the unpaid principal
balance and shall thereafter bear interest at the same rate as principal. All
payments (including prepayments) hereunder are to be applied first to the
payment of accrued interest and the balance remaining applied to the payment of
principal.
3. PAYMENTS.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the unpaid principal under this
Promissory Note plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall be payable
upon the Maturity Date. If the Maker has not repaid the principal amount

then agrees to repay the principal amount together with accrued interest
hereunder in equal monthly payments of principal and interest at fifteen percent
(15%) per annum over a twelve month period. The
first installment of such payments of principal and interest shall be due on

repayment, then such prepayment shall be applied first to the payment of accrued
interest and the balance remaining applied to the payment of principal.
5. LAWFUL MONEY; DESIGNATED PLACES OF PAYMENT.
------------------------------------------
All principal and interest due hereunder is payable in lawful money of
