("Lender"), at the address specified in Section 11 herein, or at such other
place as Lender may direct, the principal amount (the "Principal Amount") of

interest thereon at the rate of interest and in the manner set forth herein.
This Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Revolving Note (this "Note")
amends and restates that certain Secured Convertible Revolving Note dated as of
November 14, 2002 (the "Original Note"), and the Original Note is hereby

(as defined below) and the Guaranty (as defined below).
1. Loans. This Note evidences certain advances and extensions of credit
made prior to the date hereof and, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Note, and subject to the availability of cash for such purposes and the
restrictions set forth in any agreement between Lender and its lenders, to be
made after the date hereof by Xxxxxx, in Xxxxxx's sole discretion, in favor of
Borrower (the "Loans"). The aggregate principal amount of the Loans shall not
exceed the Principal Amount. The Loans shall be evidenced by this Note and this
Note shall supersede and replace the promissory notes of Borrower in favor of
Xxxxxx dated June 13, 2002, June 26, 2002, July 25, 2002, August 9, 2002,
September 30, 2002, October 4, 2002, October 31, 2002 and November 14, 2002.
Borrower acknowledges that all Loans advanced prior to the date hereof are
accurately recorded on the schedule attached hereto (the "Loan Schedule") and
authorizes the Lender to record on the Loan Schedule the date and amount of each
additional advance hereunder and the date and amount of each repayment of
principal, provided, however, that any failure by Lender to record any such
information shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to repay the
outstanding principal amount of such advances, accrued interest thereon, and any
other amount payable with respect thereto in accordance with the terms of this
Note.
2. Payments. The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and charges incurred in
connection therewith, shall be due and payable on June 30, 2003 (the "Maturity
Date").
3. Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear
interest at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum. Interest shall be due
and payable for the exact number of days principal is outstanding and shall be
calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year. If any payment
required by this Note is not made within five (5) days of the date such payment
is due, this
Note shall bear interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the
same effect, as interest hereon prior to maturity) after the due date at a rate
per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate that would otherwise be in
effect, until paid, and whether before or after the entry of judgment hereon.
4. Prepayment. Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the unpaid
balance of this Note, without premium or penalty, at any time and from time to
time; provided, however, that all sums received by Lender in respect of this
Note shall be applied by Xxxxxx in the following order (i) to any costs of
collection and expenses reimbursable by Borrower to Lender, (ii) to the payment
of interest, if any, due on the outstanding balance of this Note or so much
thereof as shall from time to time remain unpaid, and (iii) to reduce the
outstanding principal balance of this Note.
5. Conversion.
(a) The Lender may, at Lender's option, at any time, and from time to
time, prior to payment in full of this Note, convert the outstanding unpaid
balance of this Note and any interest accrued pursuant to Section 3 above
but unpaid (the "Conversion Amount"), in whole or in part (but only into
full shares), into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the common
stock, $.005 par value of Borrower's common shares (the "Common Shares"),
at a price of $0.1585 per Common Share, subject to adjustment pursuant to
Section 5(b) hereof (the "Conversion Rate"). In order to exercise this
conversion right, the Lender must send written notice of the conversion to
Borrower at least two (2) days prior to the specified conversion date (a
"Conversion Notice"). On the conversion date (or as soon thereafter as is
reasonably practicable), Borrower shall issue to Lender a share certificate
for the Common Shares acquired upon conversion.
(b) The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustment: (i) if
Borrower at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding
Common Shares into a greater number of shares, in which case the Conversion
Rate in effect immediately prior to the subdivision will be proportionately
reduced; (ii) if Borrower at any time combines (by reverse stock split or
otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a
smaller number of shares, in which case the Conversion Rate in effect
immediately prior to that combination will be proportionately increased; or
(iii) upon the issuance by Borrower of Common Shares, or of rights,
options, warrants, or other securities convertible into Common Shares, at a
price per share that is less than the Conversion Rate, in which case the
Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that it is equal to such per share
price.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5 to the
contrary, the conversion rights of Lender shall be subject to compliance
with all applicable federal and state securities laws, and Xxxxxx agrees to
execute all required agreements and documents required by Borrower to
establish compliance with such laws.
(d) Borrower shall at all times reserve and keep available and free
of preemptive rights out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares,
solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Note, that number
of Common Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the
conversion of the Note, and if at any time the number of authorized but
unissued Common Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of
the Note, Borrower shall take the corporate action necessary to increase
the number of its authorized Common Shares to a number sufficient for this
purpose.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, the rights
granted to Lender by this Section 5 (the "Conversion Rights") shall not
become effective unless and until the registered owners of 100% of the
Class B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Borrower (the "Preferred
Holders") have delivered written notice to the Borrower of the waiver of
the Preferred Holders of the rights granted to the Preferred Holders
pursuant to Section 5 of the PharmaKinetics Laboratories, Inc. Articles
Supplementary dated April 17, 2000 in connection with the Conversion
Rights.
6. Method of Payment. All payments of principal and interest hereunder
shall be paid by Borrower in United States Dollars by wire transfer of
immediately available funds or in such other manner or at such other place as
Lender shall direct.
7. Events of Default. Each of the following constitutes an "Event of
Default" hereunder:
(a) If the entire outstanding principal balance on this Note,
together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is not paid within
five (5) days after the Maturity Date;
(b) If a default occurs under the Security Agreement (as defined
below) or the Guaranty (as defined below) and is not cured within thirty
(30) days of the occurrence thereof; or
(c) If Borrower applies for, consents to or acquiesces in the
appointment of a trustee, receiver or other custodian for Borrower or any
property or assets of Borrower, or makes a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors; or, in the absence of such application, consent or
acquiescence, a trustee, receiver or other custodian is appointed for
Borrower or for a substantial part of the property or assets of Borrower
and is not discharged within sixty (60) days; or any bankruptcy,
reorganization, debt arrangement, or other case or proceeding under any
bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution or liquidation proceeding,
is commenced in respect of Borrower, and if such case or proceeding is not
commenced by Borrower, it is consented to or acquiesced in by Borrower or
if such case or proceeding is not vacated, stayed or dismissed within sixty
(60) days of such commencement.
8. Remedies Upon an Event of Default. If an Event of Default under
Section 7(c) shall occur and be continuing, the entire unpaid amount of this
Note shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest
or notice of any kind, all of which Borrower expressly waives, and Lender may
thereafter exercise from time to time any rights, powers and remedies available
to it
under all applicable laws or in equity. If an Event of Default under Section

principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such
interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and
such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to
Borrower or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has
been repaid, then such excess shall be rebated to Borrower.
