annum or such amount as shall be allowed by law (the "Default Interest Rate").
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Holder may pursue any available
remedy to collect the payment of all amounts due under the Note or to enforce
the performance of any provision of the Note. No waiver of any default under the

such right or remedy thereafter.
(c) The Company covenants that in case the principal of, and accrued
interest on, the Note becomes due and payable by declaration or otherwise, then
the Company will pay in cash to the Holder of this Note, the whole amount that
then shall have become due and payable on this Note for principal or interest,
as the case may be, and in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be
sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable
fees and disbursements of the Holder's legal counsel. In case the Company shall
fail forthwith to pay such amount, the Holder may commence an action or

and may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree
against Company or other obligor upon this Note, wherever situated, the monies
adjudicated or decreed to be payable.

registered address by facsimile, confirmed by certified mail, of the occurrence
of any Event of Default within ten (10) days after such Event of Default shall

6. Waiver of Automatic Stay
The Company acknowledges and agrees that should a proceeding under any
bankruptcy or insolvency law be commenced by or against the Company, or if any
of the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) should become the
subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, then the Holder should be
entitled to, among other relief to which the Holder may be entitled under the
Note, Security Agreement, Subscription Agreement and any other agreement to
which the Company and Holder are parties, (collectively "Loan Documents") and/or
applicable law, an order from the court granting immediate relief from the
automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 362 to permit the Holder to
exercise all of its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents and/or
applicable law. THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF THE AUTOMATIC STAY
IMPOSED BY 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362. FURTHERMORE, THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362 NOR ANY OTHER SECTION
OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE OR OTHER STATUTE OR RULE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
11 U.S.C. SECTION 105) SHALL STAY, INTERDICT, CONDITION, REDUCE OR INHIBIT IN
ANY WAY THE ABILITY OF THE HOLDER TO ENFORCE ANY OF ITS RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND/OR APPLICABLE LAW. The Company hereby consents to
any motion for relief from stay which may be filed by the Holder in any
bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding initiated by or against the Company and,
7
further, agrees not to file any opposition to any motion for relief from stay
filed by the Holder. The Company represents, acknowledges and agrees that this
provision is a specific and material aspect of the Loan Documents, and that the
Holder would not agree to the terms of the Loan Documents if this waiver were
not a part of this Note. The Company further represents, acknowledges and agrees
that this waiver is knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily made, that neither
the Holder nor any person acting on behalf of the Holder has made any
representations to induce this waiver, that the Company has been represented (or
has had the opportunity to be represented) in the signing of this Note and the
Loan Documents and in the making of this waiver by independent legal counsel
selected by the Company and that the Company has had the opportunity to discuss
this waiver with counsel. The Company further agrees that any bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding initiated by the Company will only be brought in courts
within the geographic boundaries of New York State.
7. Failure to Pay Upon Maturity
In the event that the sum due under the Note is not repaid on the
Maturity Date, the Holder will have the option to either have the Note accrue
interest at 12% or such amount as legally allowed until paid, or to convert the
entirety of the debt then outstanding under the Note into the number of Shares
derived by dividing the sum of such debt by the dollar value equal to 80% of the
closing ask price of the Shares on the last trading day immediately preceding
the Maturity Date as reported on the market upon which the Shares shall then be
trading, provided, however, that the conversion price shall never be less than
$0.33 per share. Any Shares acquired thereby shall carry with them the demand
and piggy back registration rights granted to the Holder hereby.
8. Unconditional Obligation; Fees, Waivers, Other.
(a) The obligations to make the payments provided for in this Note are
absolute and unconditional and not subject to any defense, set-off,
counterclaim, rescission, recoupment or adjustment whatsoever.
(b) If, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Holder shall
seek to enforce the collection of any amount of principal of and/or interest on
this Note, there shall be immediately due and payable from the Company, in
addition to the then unpaid principal of, and accrued unpaid interest on, this
Note, all costs and expenses incurred by Holder in connection therewith,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements.
(c) No forbearance, indulgence, delay or failure to exercise any right
or remedy with respect to this Note shall operate as a waiver or as an
acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right or remedy.
(d) This Note may not be modified or discharged (other than by payment
or conversion) except by a writing duly executed by the Company and Holder.
8
(e) Holder hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment,
notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, bringing
of suit, and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for
hereunder, and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all
sums owing and to be owing hereon, regardless of and without any notice,
diligence, act or omission with respect to the collection of any amount called
for hereunder or in connection with any right, lien, interest or property at any
and all times which the Company had or is existing as security for any amount
