</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender, in lawful money of the United States of America, at its office
indicated above or wherever else Lender may specify, the sum of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) or such sum as may be advanced and outstanding from time to time, with interest on the unpaid principal balance at the rate and on the
terms provided in this Promissory Note (including all renewals, extensions or modifications hereof, this &#147;Note&#148;). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>INTEREST RATE.</B> Interest
shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from the date hereof at the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 2.5%, as that rate may change from day to day in accordance with changes in the LIBOR Market Index Rate (&#147;Interest Rate&#148;).
&#147;LIBOR Market Index Rate&#148;, for any day, means the rate for 1 month U.S. dollar deposits as reported on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such day, or if such day is not a London business day, then the immediately
preceding London business day (or if not so reported, then as determined by Lender from another recognized source or interbank quotation). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>DEFAULT
RATE.</B> In addition to all other rights contained in this Note, if a Default (as defined herein) occurs and as long as a Default continues, all outstanding Obligations, other than Obligations under any swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C.
&#167; 101, as in effect from time to time) between Borrower and Lender or its affiliates, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate plus 3% (&#147;Default Rate&#148;). The Default Rate shall also apply from acceleration until the Obligations or any
judgment thereon is paid in full. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION (ACTUAL/360).</B> Interest and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year for the actual number of days in the applicable period (&#147;Actual/360 Computation&#148;). The Actual/360 Computation determines the annual effective interest yield by taking the stated (nominal) rate for a year&#146;s period and then
dividing said rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate exceeding the nominal rate. </FONT></P>

received. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
