PAYMENT. BORROWER WILL PAY THIS LOAN IN ONE PRINCIPAL PAYMENT OF $250,000.00

REGULAR MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF ALL ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST DUE AS OF EACH PAYMENT
DATE, BEGINNING JUNE 1, 1998, WITH ALL SUBSEQUENT INTEREST PAYMENTS TO BE DUE ON
THE SAME DAY OF EACH MONTH AFTER THAT. The annual interest rate for this Note is
computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual
interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal
balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is
outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such
other place as Lender may designate in writing. Unless otherwise agreed or
required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to accrued unpaid
interest, then to principal, and any remaining amount to any unpaid collection
costs and late charges.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from
time to time based on changes in an index which is the City National Bank Prime
Rate (the "Index"). Prime Rate shall mean the rate most recently announced by
Lender at its principal office in Beverly Hills, California. as its "Prime
Rate." Any change in the Prime Rate shall become effective on the same business
day on which the Prime Rate shall change, without prior notice to Borrower.
Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request.
Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well.
The interest rate change will not occur more often than each day. THE INDEX
CURRENTLY IS 8.500%. THE INTEREST RATE TO BE APPLIED TO THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL
BALANCE OF THIS NOTE WILL BE AT A RATE OF 1.500 PERCENTAGE POINTS OVER THE
INDEX, RESULTING IN AN INITIAL RATE OF 10.000%. NOTICE: Under no circumstances
will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by
applicable law.
PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and
other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and
will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a
result of default), except as otherwise required by law. In any event, even upon
full prepayment of this Note, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a
MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE OF $100.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any
minimum interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of
the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed
to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue
to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, they will reduce the
principal balance due.

Borrower fails to make any payment when due. (b) Borrower breaks any promise
