[NBD LOGO] MASTER DEMAND BUSINESS LOAN NOTE
Due on Demand $10,000,000
No. Date: December , 1998
------------------- ----
PROMISE TO PAY. For value received, the undersigned (collectively, the
"Borrower") promises to pay ON DEMAND TO NBD BANK (the "Bank"), or order, at any
office of the Bank in the State of Michigan, the sum of TEN MILLION DOLLARS
($10,000,000), or such lesser sum as is indicated on Bank records, plus interest
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days
at the rate of:
1% per annum above the rate announced from time to time by the Bank as
its "prime" rate (the "Note Rate"), which rate may not be the lowest
rate charged by the Bank to any of its customers, until default or
until maturity, whether by default, demand, acceleration or otherwise,
and at the rate of 3% per annum above the Note Rate after maturity or
default. Each change in the "prime" rate will immediately change the
Note Rate.
In no event shall the interest rate exceed the maximum rate allowed by law; any
interest payment which would for any reason be deemed unlawful under applicable
law shall be applied to principal.
Interest will be computed on the unpaid principal balance from the date of each
borrowing.
The Borrower will pay this sum on demand. Until demand, the Borrower will pay
consecutive monthly installments of interest only commencing December __, 1998.
LATE FEE. If any payment is not received by the Bank within fifteen days after
its due date, the Bank may assess and the Borrower agrees to pay a late fee
equal to the lesser of five percent of the past due amount or $500.
MASTER DEMAND NOTE. The Bank has authorized a discretionary credit facility to
the Borrower in a principal amount not to exceed the face amount of this note.
The credit facility is in the form of loans made from time to time by the Bank
to the Borrower at the Bank's sole discretion. This note evidences the
Borrower's obligation to repay those loans. The aggregate principal amount of
debt evidenced by this note shall be the amount reflected from time to time in
the records of the Bank but shall not exceed the face amount of this note. The
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no provision of this note and no course of
dealing by the Bank shall commit the Bank to make loans to the Borrower and that
notwithstanding any provision of this note or any other instrument or document,
all loans evidenced by this note are due and payable on demand, which may be
made by the Bank at any time, whether or not any event of acceleration then
exists.
CREDIT AGREEMENT. This note evidences a debt under the terms of an Amended and
Restated Revolving Credit and Loan Agreement between the Bank, Integral Vision,
Ltd. and the Borrower dated July 31, 1998, as amended by an Amendment and
Forbearance Agreement of approximate even date herewith (the "Forbearance
Agreement").

liability of the Borrower, whether several, joint, or joint and several, the
Borrower pledges and grants to the Bank a continuing security interest in the
