to the extent not permitted to be paid pursuant to the terms of that certain
Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated
as of October 30, 1996, between the Maker and American National Bank and Trust

balance of this Note from the date hereof through July 31, 1997, and (iii) to
the extent not permitted to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement,
accrued but unpaid interest on the principal balance of this Note from August 1,
1997 through the Due Date. None of the amounts set forth in clauses (i)-(iii)
above shall bear interest hereunder.
The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest after
the date hereof at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until acceleration and
at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum after acceleration ("Default Rate").
Interest may accrue but no interest shall be payable for periods on or prior to

advanced under the terms of the Loan Agreement, such interest shall be paid or
advanced in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. Subject to the
terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, interest accruing on and after
August 1, 1997 shall be payable in arrears quarterly on the first day of
October, January, April and July, commencing October 1, 1997, and if interest is
otherwise permitted to be paid or advanced under the Loan Agreement, such
interest shall be paid or advanced in accordance with the terms of the Loan
Agreement. To the extent interest is not permitted to be paid by the Loan
Agreement, payment of such amounts shall be deferred without interest until the
Due Date.
Interest calculation shall be based on the actual number of days elapsed
over a 360-day year. In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the
maximum rate of interest permitted by the laws governing this Note. If the
interest collected should exceed the maximum amount permitted by such laws, such
excess shall be deemed received on the account of, and shall automatically be
applied to reduce, the principal balance of this Note.

As long as this Note and payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby is
subordinated pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, this Note may not be
prepaid without the prior written consent of ANBC.
An event of default ("Event of Default") shall be deemed to have occurred
if (i) Maker fails to pay when due the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or
the interest due thereon; (ii) Maker fails to perform any obligations under, or
comply with any provisions of this Note; (iii) Maker becomes the subject of a
proceeding in bankruptcy which, in the case of an involuntary proceeding,
remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of sixty (60) days,
makes an assignment of all or a substantial part of its assets for the benefit
of its creditors, becomes insolvent, or is unable to meet its debts as they
mature; or (iv) a levy or writ of attachment, garnishment, execution or other
like judicial process is filed or issued against Maker with respect to all or
any substantial part of its assets which results in the entry of an order for
such relief which shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded
pending appeal within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof. Upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default herein, the holder shall give written notice
to Maker by sending such notice by regular mail and by certified U.S. mail,
postage prepaid, return receipt requested to maker at its chief corporate
offices, or such other address as the Maker shall supply in writing. If such
Event of Default is not fully cured within 10 calendar days after the mailing of
such written notice, the whole or any unpaid principal balance, together with
interest accrued thereon, shall be immediately due and payable and the holder
hereof shall be entitled to exercise any one or more of its rights and remedies
granted to Payee by law. Additionally, Maker agrees to immediately pay the
holder hereof the amount of any and all expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by such holder in enforcing any of its rights
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall not be an Event of Default
hereunder if the Maker fails to pay when due the indebtedness evidenced by this
Note or the interest due

thereon if the reason the Maker so fails to pay is because of the terms and
conditions contained in the Loan Agreement.
The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative to the rights and
remedies provided by applicable law. Nothing herein is intended, nor would it be
construed, to preclude the exercise of any one or more of the rights and
remedies provided hereunder or by applicable law.

demand, notice of protest, demand and dishonor and non-payment of this Note. No
extension of the time for the payment of this Note made by agreement with any
person now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note shall operate to
release, discharge, modify, change or effect the original liability under this
Note, either in whole or in part, of Maker.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles
thereof.
