FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Solomon Alliance Group, Inc, an Arizona corporation having a principal office at Xxxxx 000, 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 0000, Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Xx., hereinafter referred to as "Maker", does hereby promise to pay to the order of Synoptel Corporation, a Delaware corporation, (referred to herein as "Payee", which terms shall also include any subsequent holder of this Note) having a mailing address of 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, the principal sum of Thirty-Seven Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($37,000.00), together with interest until paid, as set forth in this Note.
1. Interest Rate. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding unpaid principal balance of this Note at a simple interest rate of eight percent per annum, commencing as of the date of this Note and continuing until this Note is paid, in full.
2. Payments. Unless sooner paid in full, commencing twelve months after the date of this Note, Maker shall make 24 equal monthly payments of principal and interest in such amount as is required to fully pay all principal and accrued interest due under this Note. Interest accrued as of the date of commencement of the payment period under this Section 2 will be added principal for purposes of determining the installment payments. If any such payment falls due on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such payment shall be due and shall be made on the next business day.
3. Manner of Payment. All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim or deduction of any kind on the due dates of such payments. Payments shall be made to the address set forth herein for notices to Payee. Any payments by check shall be accepted subject to collection in immediately available funds. Payments shall be applied first to Collection Costs (herein defined), second to accrued interest, and third to principal of this Note.
4. Prepayment. Maker shall be privileged to prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without premium. All partial prepayments shall be applied in inverse order of maturity.
5. Collection Costs. Maker shall pay all costs and expenses of enforcing this Note, including without limitation any and all costs and expenses of collecting the principal, interest, and late charges due under this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Payee after the occurrence of any Event of Default shall have been declared, including, without limitation, any and all such costs and expenses incurred by Payee in or relating to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings (all thereof referred to herein as "Collection Costs"). Collection Costs include, without limitation, all of Payee's reasonable attorney's fees, paralegal fees and litigation expenses of any kind, incurred in the enforcement and collection of this Note. Maker will pay a late charge of five percent of any amount that is not paid within fourteen (14) days of its due date.
6. Default; Acceleration. The occurrence of any of the following events shall be an "Event of Default": (a) failure of Maker to make any payment of principal or interest under this Note when due; (b) failure of Maker to make any payment of late charges, expenses, or fees under this Note within fourteen (14) days after the Payee's written demand for such payments; (c) Maker shall default in the payment of any other obligation or indebtedness of Maker to Payee, or default under any Security Agreement executed by Maker to secure payment of this Note; (d) the filing of any petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal or state statute by or against either of the Maker; (e) commencement of any proceeding under any federal or state statute or rule providing for the relief of debtors, composition of creditors, arrangement, reorganization, receivership, liquidation or
19
any similar event by or against either of the Maker; or (f) the "Change of Control" of Maker. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal with interest and all other sums evidenced by this Note shall, at the option of Payee and in Payee's discretion, become immediately due and payable. "Change of Control Event" shall mean, and be deemed to have occurred upon: (i) a sale or transfer of substantially all of the assets of the Maker in any transaction or series of related transactions (other than sales in the ordinary course of business); (ii) any merger, consolidation or reorganization to which the Maker is a party, except for a merger, consolidation or reorganization in which the Maker is the surviving corporation and, after giving effect to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, the holders of the Maker's outstanding Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) immediately prior to the merger, consolidation or reorganization will own, immediately following the merger, consolidation or reorganization, capital stock holding a majority of the voting power of the Maker; (iii) any sale or series of sales of shares of the capital stock of the Maker by the holders thereof which results in any person or group of affiliated persons (other than the owners of the Maker's capital stock as of the closing of the transactions contemplated by this subsection (iii)) owning capital stock holding a majority of the voting power of the Maker.
7. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by or in connection with this Note shall be in writing and shall be made by confirmed telecopy, or by signature confirmed hand delivery or by overnight delivery service, or by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at the appropriate address set forth on the first page of this Note or to such other address as may be hereafter specified by written notice by the parties to each other. Notice shall be considered given as of the earlier of the date of actual receipt, or the date of Maker's receipt of the telecopy or hand delivery, or one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight delivery service, or three (3) business days after the date of mailing, independent of the date of actual delivery or whether delivery is ever in fact made, as the case may be, provided the giver of notice can establish that notice was given as provided herein.
8. Certain Waivers. As to this Note, Maker waives all applicable exemption rights, whether under any state constitution, homestead laws or otherwise, and also waives valuation and appraisement, presentment, notice of dishonor, and protest, notice of demand and nonpayment of this Note, and notice of acceleration and expressly agree that the maturity of this Note, or any payment under this Note, may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. If Payee transfers this Note to another holder, other than a director of Payee, who takes this Note for value and without actual knowledge of a claim or defense of Maker against any prior holder of this Note, such transferee shall not be subject to any claims, set-offs or defenses that Maker may have against any holder of this Note prior to such transfer, and such transferee shall have all of the rights of a holder in due course against Maker even if, absent this provision, such transferee would not qualify as a holder in due course under applicable law.
9. Preservation of Payee Rights. No failure on the part of Payee to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, whether before or after the happening of an Event of Default shall constitute a waiver thereof, and no waiver of any past Event of Default shall constitute waiver of any future default or of any other Event of Default. No failure to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby by reason of any Event of Default hereunder, or acceptance of a past due payment, or indulgence granted from time to time, shall be construed to be a waiver of the right to insist upon prompt payment thereafter or to impose late charges retroactively or prospectively, or shall be deemed to be a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or as a waiver of such right or acceleration or any other right, or be construed so as to preclude the exercise of any right that Payee may have, whether by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, by agreement, or otherwise; and Maker hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity that would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing. This Note may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom such agreement is sought to be enforced.
20
10. Law. This Note shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia (excluding Virginia conflicts of laws rules).
11. Jurisdiction; Venue. Maker hereby irrevocably consents to the non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia and, if a basis for federal jurisdiction exists, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Maker agrees that venue shall be proper in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia or, if a basis for federal jurisdiction exists, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Maker waives any right to object to the maintenance of any suit or claim in any of the state or federal courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia on the basis of improper venue or of inconvenience of forum. Any suit or claim brought by Maker against Payee that is based, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, on this Note or any matters relating to this Note, shall be brought in a court only in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Maker shall not file any counterclaim against Payee in any suit or claim brought by Payee against Maker in a jurisdiction outside of the Commonwealth of Virginia unless under the rules of the court in which Payee brought such suit or claim the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless filed as a counterclaim in the claim or suit instituted by Payee against Maker. Maker agrees that any forum outside the Commonwealth of Virginia is an inconvenient forum and that a suit brought by Maker against Payee in any court outside the Commonwealth of Virginia should be dismissed or transferred to a court located in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
12. Severability. In case any provision (or any part of any provision) contained in this Note shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision (or remaining part of the affected provision) of this Note, but this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision (or part thereof) had never been contained herein but only to the extent such provision (or part thereof) is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable.
13. Assignment. This Note and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Note nor any of the rights, interest, or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party; provided however, that this Note may be assigned by Payee to Xx. Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx without the necessity of Maker's consent.
14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. MAKER WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIMS OF ANY KIND ARISING UNDER OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS NOTE. MAKER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS IS A WAIVER OF A LEGAL RIGHT AND REPRESENTS THAT THIS WAIVER IS MADE KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AFTER CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL OF MAKER'S CHOICE. MAKER AGREES THAT ALL SUCH CLAIMS SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE OF A COURT HAVING JURISDICTION WITHOUT A JURY.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Maker executes this Note under seal as of the date first written above.

2. Payments. Unless sooner paid in full, commencing twelve months after the date of this Note, Maker shall make 24 equal monthly payments of principal and interest in such amount as is required to fully pay all principal and accrued interest due under this Note. Interest accrued as of the date of commencement of the payment period under this Section 2 will be added principal for purposes of determining the installment payments. If any such payment falls due on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such payment shall be due and shall be made on the next business day.
3. Manner of Payment. All payments shall be made in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim or deduction of any kind on the due dates of such payments. Payments shall be made to the address set forth herein for notices to Payee. Any payments by check shall be accepted subject to collection in immediately available funds. Payments shall be applied first to Collection Costs (herein defined), second to accrued interest, and third to principal of this Note.

5. Collection Costs. Maker shall pay all costs and expenses of enforcing this Note, including without limitation any and all costs and expenses of collecting the principal, interest, and late charges due under this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Payee after the occurrence of any Event of Default shall have been declared, including, without limitation, any and all such costs and expenses incurred by Payee in or relating to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings (all thereof referred to herein as "Collection Costs").

Maker will pay a late charge of five percent of any amount that is not paid within fourteen (14) days of its due date.
6. Default; Acceleration. The occurrence of any of the following events shall be an "Event of Default": (a) failure of Maker to make any payment of principal or interest under this Note when due; (b) failure of Maker to make any payment of late charges, expenses, or fees under this Note within fourteen (14) days after the Payee's written demand for such payments; (c) Maker shall default in the payment of any other obligation or indebtedness of Maker to Payee, or default under any Security Agreement executed by Maker to secure payment of this Note; (d) the filing of any petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal or state statute by or against either of the Maker; (e) commencement of any proceeding under any federal or state statute or rule providing for the relief of debtors, composition of creditors, arrangement, reorganization, receivership, liquidation or any similar event by or against either of the Maker; or (f) the "Change of Control" of Maker.

7. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by or in connection with this Note shall be in writing and shall be made by confirmed telecopy, or by signature confirmed hand delivery or by overnight delivery service, or by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at the appropriate address set forth on the first page of this Note or to such other address as may be hereafter specified by written notice by the parties to each other. Notice shall be considered given as of the earlier of the date of actual receipt, or the date of Maker's receipt of the telecopy or hand delivery, or one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight delivery service, or three (3) business days after the date of mailing, independent of the date of actual delivery or whether delivery is ever in fact made, as the case may be, provided the giver of notice can establish that notice was given as provided herein.
8. Certain Waivers. As to this Note, Maker waives all applicable exemption rights, whether under any state constitution, homestead laws or otherwise, and also waives valuation and appraisement, presentment, notice of dishonor, and protest, notice of demand and nonpayment of this Note, and notice of acceleration and expressly agree that the maturity of this Note, or any payment under this Note, may be extended from time to time without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. If Payee transfers this Note to another holder, other than a director of Payee, who takes this Note for value and without actual knowledge of a claim or defense of Maker against any prior holder of this Note, such transferee shall not be subject to any claims, set-offs or defenses that Maker may have against any holder of this Note prior to such transfer, and such transferee shall have all of the rights of a holder in due course against Maker even if, absent this provision, such transferee would not qualify as a holder in due course under applicable law.
9. Preservation of Payee Rights. No failure on the part of Payee to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, whether before or after the happening of an Event of Default shall constitute a waiver thereof, and no waiver of any past Event of Default shall constitute waiver of any future default or of any other Event of Default. No failure to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby by reason of any Event of Default hereunder, or acceptance of a past due payment, or indulgence granted from time to time, shall be construed to be a waiver of the right to insist upon prompt payment thereafter or to impose late charges retroactively or prospectively, or shall be deemed to be a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or as a waiver of such right or acceleration or any other right, or be construed so as to preclude the exercise of any right that Payee may have, whether by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, by agreement, or otherwise; and Maker hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity that would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing. This Note may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom such agreement is sought to be enforced.
10. Law. This Note shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia (excluding Virginia conflicts of laws rules).
26
11. Jurisdiction; Venue. Maker hereby irrevocably consents to the non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia and, if a basis for federal jurisdiction exists, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Maker agrees that venue shall be proper in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia or, if a basis for federal jurisdiction exists, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Maker waives any right to object to the maintenance of any suit or claim in any of the state or federal courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia on the basis of improper venue or of inconvenience of forum. Any suit or claim brought by Maker against Payee that is based, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, on this Note or any matters relating to this Note, shall be brought in a court only in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Maker shall not file any counterclaim against Payee in any suit or claim brought by Payee against Maker in a jurisdiction outside of the Commonwealth of Virginia unless under the rules of the court in which Payee brought such suit or claim the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless filed as a counterclaim in the claim or suit instituted by Payee against Maker. Maker agrees that any forum outside the Commonwealth of Virginia is an inconvenient forum and that a suit brought by Maker against Payee in any court outside the Commonwealth of Virginia should be dismissed or transferred to a court located in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
12. Severability. In case any provision (or any part of any provision) contained in this Note shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision (or remaining part of the affected provision) of this Note, but this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision (or part thereof) had never been contained herein but only to the extent such provision (or part thereof) is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable.
13. Assignment. This Note and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Note nor any of the rights, interest, or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party; provided however, that this Note may be assigned by Payee to Xx. Xxx X. Xxxxx without the necessity of Maker's consent.
14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. MAKER WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIMS OF ANY KIND ARISING UNDER OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS NOTE. MAKER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS IS A WAIVER OF A LEGAL RIGHT AND REPRESENTS THAT THIS WAIVER IS MADE KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AFTER CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL OF MAKER'S CHOICE. MAKER AGREES THAT ALL SUCH CLAIMS SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE OF A COURT HAVING JURISDICTION WITHOUT A JURY.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Maker executes this Note under seal as of the date first written above.
