FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Nura, Inc., a Delaware corporation, located at the address stated below
(“Maker”) promises, jointly and severally if more than one, to pay to the order of Oxford Finance
Corporation or any subsequent holder hereof (each, a “Payee”) at its office located at 000 X.
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 or at such other place as Payee or the holder hereof may
designate, the principal sum of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00), with interest on the unpaid
principal balance, from the date hereof through and including the dates of payment, at a fixed
interest rate of nine and eight tenths percent (9.8%) per annum. Maker shall make six (6) payments
of interest only as follows:

payable on June 1, 2005, and the following Periodic Installments and the final installment shall be

Each payment may, at the option of the Payee, be calculated and applied on an assumption that such
payment would be made on its due date.

such time or at any prior or subsequent time.

The Maker hereby expressly authorizes the Payee to insert the date value is actually given in the blank space on the face hereof and on all related documents pertaining hereto. |
This Note may be secured by a security agreement, chattel mortgage, pledge agreement or like instrument (each of which is hereinafter called a “Security Agreement” and any Security Agreement, this Note and any other document evidencing or securing this loan is hereinafter called a “Debt Document”). |
Time is of the essence hereof. If any installment or any other sum due under this Note or any Security Agreement is not received when due, the Maker agrees to pay, in addition to the amount of each such installment or other sum, a late payment charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of said installment or other sum, but not exceeding any lawful maximum. If (i) Maker fails to make payment of any amount due hereunder; or (ii) Maker is in default under, or fails to perform under any term or condition contained in any Security Agreement, then the entire principal sum remaining unpaid, together with all accrued interest thereon and any other sum payable under this Note or any Security Agreement, at the election of Payee, shall immediately become due and payable, with interest thereon at the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate not prohibited by applicable law from the date of such accelerated maturity until paid (both before and after any judgment). |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Security Agreement, Maker may not prepay in full or in part any indebtedness hereunder without the express written consent of Payee in its sole discretion. |
The Maker and all sureties, endorsers, guarantors or any others (each such person, other than the Maker, an “Obligor”) who may at any time become liable for the payment hereof jointly and severally consent hereby to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers or modifications of, and all substitutions or releases of, security or of any party primarily or secondarily liable on this Note or any Security Agreement or any term and provision of either, which may be made, granted or consented to by Payee, and agree that suit may be brought and maintained against any one or more of them, at the election of Payee without joinder of any other as a party thereto, and that Payee shall not be required first to foreclose, proceed against, or exhaust any security hereof in order to enforce payment of this Note. The Maker and each Obligor hereby waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices in connection herewith, as well as filing of suit (if permitted by law) and diligence in collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security hereof, and agrees to pay (if and to the extent permitted by law) all expenses incurred in collection, including Payee’s actual attorneys’ fees.

Obligor agrees that fees not in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the amount then due shall be
deemed reasonable.
Maker and Payee intend to strictly comply with all applicable federal and Xxxxxxxx xxxx, including
applicable usury laws (or the usury laws of any jurisdiction whose usury laws are deemed to apply
to the Note or any other Debt Document despite the intention and desire of the parties to apply the
usury laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia). Accordingly, the provisions of this paragraph shall
govern and control over every other provision of this Note or any other Debt Document which
conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section, even if such provision declares that it controls.
As used in this paragraph, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees,
benefits or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided
that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be
characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance or
detention of money and not as
interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved, charged or received shall be
amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal parts during the full term of the obligations.
In no event shall Maker or any other person be obligated to pay, or Payee have any right or
privilege to reserve, receive or retain, (a) any interest in excess of the maximum amount of
non-usurious interest permitted under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia or the applicable
laws (if any) of the United States or of any other state, or (b) total interest in excess of the
amount which Payee could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged had
the interest been calculated for the full term of the obligations. On each day, if any, that the
interest rate (the “Stated Rate”) called for under this Note or any other Debt Document
exceeds the maximum non-usurious rate, the rate at which interest shall accrue shall automatically
be fixed by operation of this sentence at the maximum non-usurious rate for that day. Thereafter,
interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again exceeds the maximum
non-usurious rate, in which case, the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall again
automatically operate to limit the interest accrual rate to the maximum non-usurious rate. The
daily interest rates to be used in calculating interest at the maximum non-usurious rate shall be
determined by dividing the applicable maximum non-usurious rate by the number of days in the
calendar year for which such calculation is being made. None of the terms and provisions contained
in this Note or in any other Debt Document which directly or indirectly relate to interest shall
ever be construed without reference to this paragraph, or be construed to create a contract to pay
for the use, forbearance or detention of money at an interest rate in excess of the maximum
non-usurious rate. If the term of any obligation is shortened by reason of acceleration of
maturity as a result of any Default or by any other cause, or by reason of any required or
permitted prepayment, and if for that (or any other) reason Payee at any time, including but not
limited to, the stated maturity, is owed or receives (and/or has received) interest in excess of
interest calculated at the maximum non-usurious rate, then and in any such event all of any such
excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such

acceleration, prepayment or other event which produces the excess, and, if such excess interest has
been paid to Payee, it shall be credited pro tanto against the then-outstanding principal
balance of Maker’s obligations to Payee, effective as of the date or dates when the event occurs
which causes it to be excess interest, until such excess is exhausted or all of such principal has
been fully paid and satisfied, whichever occurs first, and any remaining balance of such excess
shall be promptly refunded to its payor.
THE MAKER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION
BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, THIS NOTE, ANY OF THE RELATED DOCUMENTS, ANY
DEALINGS BETWEEN THE MAKER AND PAYEE RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY OR
ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED BETWEEN MAKER AND
PAYEE. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT
MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF
DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.) THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING
THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY
SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS NOTE, ANY RELATED DOCUMENTS,
OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THIS TRANSACTION OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTION.
IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS NOTE MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
This Note and any Security Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the Maker and Payee with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements and
representations, express or implied.
No variation or modification of this Note, or any waiver of any of its provisions or conditions,
shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Maker and Payee.
Any such waiver, consent, modification or change shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the specific purpose given.
Any provision in this Note or any Security Agreement which is in conflict with any statute, law or
applicable rule shall be deemed omitted, modified or altered to conform thereto.
