PROMISSORY NOTE
$500,000.00 Dallas, Texas June 6, 2001
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, XXXXXXXXXXX.XXX, INCORPORATED, a
Nevada corporation ("Maker"), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
order of X-XXXX.XXX, INC. D/B/A HOMEMARK, a Texas corporation ("Payee"), at such
address holder hereof may designate in writing to Maker, the principal sum of
FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100S DOLLARS ($500,000.00), bearing simple interest
at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum on any and all amounts from time to
time remaining unpaid hereon from the date hereof until maturity, howsoever such
maturity may be brought about.
This Note shall be due and payable as follows: all principal and
accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable in full in one (1)
installment on or before September 30, 2001.
Payments of principal and interest shall be made in legal and lawful
money of the United States of America at the address of Payee.
It is the intention of Maker and Payee to conform strictly to the
usury laws in force in the State of Texas and the United States of America. It
is therefore agreed that (i) in the event that the maturity hereof is
accelerated by reason of an election by Payee, or if the same is prepaid prior
to maturity, all unearned interest, if any, shall be cancelled automatically, or
if theretofore paid, shall either be refunded to Maker or credited on the unpaid
principal amount of the Note, whichever remedy is chosen by Payee, (ii) the
aggregate of all interest and other charges constituting interest under
applicable law and contracted for, chargeable or receivable under this Note or
otherwise in connection with this loan transaction shall never exceed the
maximum amount of interest, nor produce a rate in excess of the maximum rate of
interest, which Payee may charge Maker under applicable law and in regard to
which Maker may not successfully assert the claim or defense of usury and (iii)
if any excess interest is provided for, it shall be deemed a mistake and the
same shall either be refunded to Maker or credited on the unpaid principal
amount hereof, and this Note shall be automatically deemed reformed so as to
permit only the collection of the maximum non-usurious rate and amount of
interest allowed by applicable law. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the
holder or holders hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby shall, to the full extent permitted by applicable
law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread through the fullest term of
this Note.

If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due
on a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Payee is not open for business in
Dallas, Texas such payment shall be made on the next business day on which Payee
is open for business.
In the event of default in the payment of any installment of principal
when due hereunder, or upon the occurrence of any event of default under the
Security Agreement executed in connection herewith or any document or instrument
executed as security for this Note or otherwise in connection herewith, Payee
may declare the entirety of this Note, immediately due and payable, and failure
on the part of Payee to exercise said option and/or any other of its options,
rights and/or remedies shall not constitute a waiver on the part of Payee to
exercise the same at any other time.
Time is of the essence with respect to this Note.
If default is made in the payment of this Note and it is placed in the
hands of an attorney for collection, or collected through probate, bankruptcy or
other proceedings, or if suit is brought on this Note, Maker promises to pay to
Payee reasonable attorneys' fees in addition to all other amounts owing
hereunder.
The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is secured by a certain
Security Agreement ("Security Agreement") of even date herewith, executed by
Maker in favor of Payee . The terms and conditions of the Security Agreement are
incorporated herein by reference.
This Note shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Texas, and, when and where applicable, the laws of the United
States of America. In the event any one or more provisions contained herein
should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall
not in any way be affected thereby.
EXECUTED AND EFFECTIVE the day and year first written above.

such items as Secured Party in its discretion may determine, any statute, law,
custom or use to the contrary notwithstanding.
(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time
thereafter, Secured Party may exercise, in addition to all other rights and
remedies granted to it in this Security Agreement, all rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction
in which any of the Collateral may at the time be located and all rights and
remedies which Secured Party may have pursuant to the terms of the Credit
Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Debtor hereby
expressly agrees that in any such event, Secured Party, without demand of
performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the
notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon
Debtor or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and/or
notices are hereby expressly waived), may forthwith collect, receive,
appropriate and/or realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may
forthwith sell, lease assign, give option or options to purchase, or sell or
otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral, or any part thereof, (or
contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or
private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or at any of Secured
Party's offices or elsewhere at such prices as Secured Party may deem best, for
cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.
Secured Party shall have the right upon such public sale or sales, and to the
fullest extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or
equity of redemption in Debtor, which right is hereby expressly waived and
released. Debtor further agrees, at the request of Secured Party, to assemble
the Collateral, and to make it available to Secured Party at places which
Secured Party shall reasonably select, whether at Debtor's premises or
elsewhere. Secured Party shall apply the net proceeds, if any, of any such
collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, to the
payment of the Secured Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands against Secured Party arising out
of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral. Debtor agrees that
Secured Party need not give more than 10 days' notice (which notification shall
be deemed given when mailed, postage prepaid, addressed to Debtor at its address
determined pursuant to SECTION 14 hereof) of the time and place of any public
sale or of the time after which
SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FINANCING STATEMENT - Page 6
a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of
such matters; provided however, no notification need be given to Debtor if it
has signed after default a statement renouncing or modifying any right to
notification of sale or other intended disposition. Secured Party shall not be
liable for any depreciation in the value of the Collateral or any part thereof.
(d) Debtor hereby expressly waives grace, notice, demand,
presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intention to accelerate,
notice of acceleration and all other notice of any kind whatsoever, in
