as duly designated by the Holder, in lawful money of the United States of

1. Payment of Interest; Rate. This Note shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount hereof at an annual interest rate of eight percent
(8%) (based upon a 360-day year), payable quarterly on October 15, January 15,
April 15 and July 15 of each year (each of such quarterly interest payment dates
being referred to herein as an "Interest Payment Date") commencing October 15,
1995. In the event that an Interest Payment Date is not a business day, the
Company shall pay to the Holder the interest payment on the first business day
following the applicable Interest Payment Date.
2. Payment of Principal. (a) Principal shall be payable on the Note in
one installment on August 31, 1997 (the "Initial Maturity Date"). On the Initial
Maturity Date, the Company shall have the option ("Conversion Option") of not
repaying the Note and instead converting the outstanding principal
amount on the Note into another note in such outstanding principal amount

on the outstanding principal amount at the annual rate of eight percent (8%) and
shall mature five (5) years from the date of its issuance ("Maturity Date").
Interest and principal shall be payable on the Converted Note in twenty (20)

(b) If the Company exercises the Conversion Option, upon its issuance
of the Converted Note to the Holder, it shall also issue to the Holder a
warrant, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto ("New Warrant"), to
purchase 75 shares of the common stock, $.01 par value per share of the Company

adjustment as set forth in the New Warrant. The New Warrant shall be exercisable
for five years and shall be in addition to the Warrants (as defined in Section 4
herein) issued pursuant to Section 4 of this Note.
3. Prepayment of Note; Rights to Purchase Additional Securities. (a)
Prior to the Initial Maturity Date (or the Maturity Date for the Converted
Note), the Company may prepay, without penalty or premium, the outstanding
principal amount of this Note, or the Converted Note, provided that any accrued
and unpaid interest is paid when this Note, or the Converted Note, is prepaid.
If the Company prepays the entire outstanding principal amount of this Note (and
accrued and unpaid interest) on or prior to August 31, 1996, Warrant A (as
defined herein) shall be canceled and returned to the Company by the Holder.
(b) Prior to the Initial Maturity Date (or the Maturity Date for the
Converted Note), if the Company consummates any equity or subordinated debt
financing ("New Financing"), the Company shall have the option to require the
Holder to convert the Note (or Converted Note, as applicable) into debt and/or
equity securities ("New Securities") that are being issued in the New Financing,
provided that the Holder receives in exchange for its Note (or Converted Note,
as applicable) New Securities on the same terms and conditions as any other
holder of New Securities.
(c) (i) If at any time while either of the Warrants or the New
Warrants remain outstanding and Section 9.6 of the Original Investment Agreement
has not been terminated, the Company proposes to issue any of its equity
securities to any person (other than pursuant to a plan or arrangement approved
pursuant to Section 6.1 (a)(iv) of the Original Investment Agreement, or as
additional consideration to a financial institution that is not an Affiliate of
any Stockholder in connection with the making of a loan to the Company (or its
subsidiaries), or pursuant to a New Financing), the Holder shall have the right
to purchase, upon the same terms, a proportionate quantity of those securities
(in the
-2-
proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants and
the New Warrants, as applicable bears to the total number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock then held by all stockholders); for this purpose, shares
of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon conversion of securities then held
by all stockholders or upon exercise of warrants then held by all stockholders
shall be deemed to be then held by stockholders. The provisions of this Section
3(c)(i) are not intended to be duplicative with the provisions of Section 9.6 of
the Original Investment Agreement.
(ii) If at any time prior to the date the indebtedness evidenced by
this Note has been paid in full the Company proposes to issue any subordinated
debt financing (other than pursuant to a New Financing), the Holder shall have
the right to participate in such issuance of debt, upon the same terms, in a
proportionate principal amount (in the proportion that the principal amount of
subordinated debt held by the Holder bears to the total principal amount of the
subordinated debt of the Company then held by all holders); provided, however,
that this right shall terminate if not exercised in connection with the first
financing to which this Section is applicable.
4. Warrants. Upon issuance of the Note to the Holder, the Company
shall also issue two (2) warrants ("Warrants") to the Holder, which Warrants
shall be designated "Warrant A" and "Warrant B" and shall be in substantially
the forms set forth in Exhibits B and C hereto. Each Warrant shall entitle the
Holder for a five-year period to purchase 37.50 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at an exercise price of $2,000 per share, subject to adjustment as set
