defined in the Purchase Agreement) secured by a mortgage on the East Windsor
Property (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) which is senior to the
indebtedness set forth herein. Pursuant to the terms set forth in the Purchase

thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any bankruptcy
proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code or other applicable
insolvency laws) payable in cash at a rate of 12% per annum (computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months). Payment or acceptance of
the
increased rates of interest is not a permitted alternative to timely payment
and

or
limit any rights or remedies under the Purchase Agreement. The maximum rate
of
interest, including default interest, charged hereunder shall not exceed the
highest rate permitted by law.
This
Note
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
