     The Company purchased all of the outstanding common stock of Saddleback
Investment Services, Inc. ("Saddleback") from the Holder. The principal amount
of this Note represents the cash portion of the purchase price due Holder
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement by and between Company and the Holder of even
date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement"). In connection with this Note, the
parties are entering a Security Agreement pursuant to which the Company is
delivering Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statements to the Holder and taking
such other actions as are provided for herein.

                              Terms and Conditions

     The entire principal amount of this Note, together with interest at the
rate of six percent (6%) per annum, shall be due payable, in full, to the Holder

common stock of Saddleback (the "Collateral Shares") that were acquired by the
Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. This continuing security interest is
granted in accordance with that certain Security Agreement between the parties
attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Security Agreement"), the terms of which are
incorporated herein by reference and in connection with which the Company hereby
delivers (x) to the Holder, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements which

representing the Collateral Shares.

          (d) The Holder acknowledges that the Collateral Agent is counsel to
the Company and acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent may continue
to represent the Company in all matters including without limitation matters
involving this Note and the indebtedness represented hereby, save only as may
pertain to any dispute arising out of the Collateral Agent's obligations under
this Section 2. The Holder acknowledges that Collateral Agent's duties to it are
limited to those expressly set forth in Section 2 of this Note.

     3.   Default.

     The entire unpaid principal of this Note shall become and be immediately
due and payable and issuable upon written demand of Holder, without any other
notice (except as may otherwise be set forth hereinbelow) or demand of any kind
or any presentment or protest, if any one of the following events (each an
"Event of Default") shall occur and be continuing at the time of such demand,
whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or, without limitation, occurring or
brought about by operation of law or pursuant to or in compliance with any
judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
governmental body:

otherwise) the material allegations of a petition filed against it seeking the
appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator, in bankruptcy or otherwise, of
itself or of all or a substantial portion of its assets, or a reorganization,
arrangement with creditors or other remedy, relief or adjudication available to
or against a bankrupt, insolvent or debtor under any bankruptcy or insolvency
law or any law affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (iii) admits in
writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due;

          (c) If an order for relief shall have been entered by a bankruptcy
court or if a decree order or judgment shall have been entered adjudging the
Company insolvent, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, custodian or trustee,
in bankruptcy or otherwise, for it or for all or a substantial portion of its
assets, or approving the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs on the grounds
of insolvency or nonpayment of debts, and such order for relief, decree, order
or judgment shall remain undischarged or unstayed for a period of forty-five

<PAGE>


          (e) If any representation or warranty made by the Company in Section 3

respect when made, if the same shall materially impair the Holder's rights under
this Note or the Security Agreement; or

          (f) If the Company shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant
or agreement on its part to be performed or observed as contained in Section 4

have been remedied by the end of the 15th day after written notice of breach or
default shall have been received by the Company.

     4.   Prepayment. The Company shall have the right to prepay this Note, in
whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. But, in no event,
shall such prepayment postpone or otherwise delay any subsequent payments that
may be due.

     5.   General

          (a) Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to
it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note and of indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon reimbursement to the Company of all
reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of
this Note (in case of mutilation) the Company will make and deliver in lieu of
this Note a new Note of like tenor and unpaid principal amount and dated as of
the date to which interest has been paid on the unpaid principal amount of this
Note in lieu of which such new Note is made and delivered.

          (b) Designees for Shares. The Holder may designate persons other than

and agrees the Company shall have the right to require the Holder to furnish
such representations and warranties as to the Holder's investment intent as are
reasonable and customary in the issuance of unregistered stock.

be made or compliance with any term, covenant, agreement, condition or provision
set forth herein may be omitted or waived (either generally or in a particular
instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only upon written consent
of the Company and the Holder. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of
either Holder or the Company to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege
under this Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or
further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege;
nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege constitute a
waiver with respect to any other occurrence.

          (f) Currency. Except as otherwise set forth or expressly provided for
herein, all payments hereunder shall be made in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender therein
