                                MULTIFAMILY NOTE



US $8,080,000.00
                                                                Atlanta, Georgia
                                                              as of June 1, 2001


     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned  ("BORROWER") jointly and severally (if
more  than  one)  promises  to pay to the order of  BERKSHIRE  MORTGAGE  FINANCE
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP,  a Massachusetts limited partnership,  the principal sum of
Eight Million Eighty  Thousand and No/100ths  Dollars (US  $8,080,000.00),  with
interest  on  the  unpaid  principal  balance  at the  annual  rate  of six  and
ninety-nine one hundredths percent (6.99%).

     1. DEFINED  TERMS.  As used in this Note,  (i) the term "LENDER"  means the
holder of this Note,  and (ii) the term  "INDEBTEDNESS"  means the principal of,
interest on, or any other amounts due at any time under, this Note, the Security
Instrument  or any other Loan  Document,  including  prepayment  premiums,  late
charges,  default interest, and advances to protect the security of the Security
Instrument under Section 12 of the Security  Instrument.  Event of Default,  Key
Principal  and other  capitalized  terms used but not defined in this Note shall
have the meanings given to such terms in the Security  Instrument (as defined in
Paragraph 5).

     2. ADDRESS FOR  PAYMENT.  All payments due under this Note shall be payable
at One Beacon Street,  14th Floor,  Boston,  Massachusetts  02108, or such other
place as may be  designated  by written  notice to Borrower from or on behalf of
Lender.

     3. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST.  Principal and interest shall be paid
as follows:

     (a) Unless  disbursement  of principal is made by Lender to Borrower on the
first  day of the  month,  interest  for the  period  beginning  on the  date of
disbursement and ending on and including the last day of the month in which such
disbursement is made shall be payable  simultaneously with the execution of this
Note.  Interest under this Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months.

     (b) Consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, each in the
amount of  Fifty-Three  Thousand  Seven  Hundred Two and  19/100ths  Dollars (US
$53,702.19),  shall be payable on the first day of each month  beginning on July
1, 2001 until,  the entire unpaid  principal  balance  evidenced by this Note is
fully paid. Any accrued interest remaining past due for 30 days or more shall be
added to and become part of the unpaid principal balance and shall bear interest
at the rate or rates specified in this Note, and any reference below to "accrued
interest"  shall  refer to accrued  interest  which has not  become  part of the
unpaid principal balance.  Any remaining principal and interest shall be due and
payable on June 1, 2011 or on any  earlier  date on which the  unpaid  principal
balance of this Note becomes due and payable,  by acceleration or otherwise (the
"Maturity  Date").  The unpaid principal balance shall continue to bear interest
after the  Maturity  Date at the  Default  Rate set forth in this Note until and
including the date on which it is paid in full.

     (c) Any regularly  scheduled monthly  installment of principal and interest
that is  received  by Lender  before  the date it is due shall be deemed to have
been  received on the due date solely for the  purpose of  calculating  interest
due.


     4. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS.  If at any time Lender receives,  from Borrower
or otherwise,  any amount applicable to the Indebtedness  which is less than all
amounts due and payable at such time,  Lender may apply that  payment to amounts
then due and  payable in any manner and in any order  determined  by Lender,  in
Lender's  discretion.  Borrower  agrees that neither  Lender's  acceptance  of a
payment  from  Borrower in an amount that is less than all amounts  then due and
payable nor Lender's  application of such payment shall  constitute or be deemed
to  constitute  either  a  waiver  of  the  unpaid  amounts  or  an  accord  and
satisfaction.

     5.  SECURITY.  The  Indebtedness  is  secured,  among  other  things,  by a
multifamily mortgage,  deed to secure debt or deed of trust dated as of the date
of this Note (the "Security Instrument"),  and reference is made to the Security
Instrument  for  other  rights  of  Lender  concerning  the  collateral  for the
Indebtedness.

     6. ACCELERATION. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
entire unpaid principal  balance,  any accrued interest,  the prepayment premium
payable under  Paragraph  10, if any, and all other  amounts  payable under this
Note and any other Loan  Document  shall at once become due and payable,  at the
option of Lender, without any prior notice to Borrower. Lender may exercise this
option to accelerate regardless of any prior forbearance.

     7. LATE CHARGE.  If any monthly amount payable under this Note or under the
Security  Instrument or any other Loan Document is not received by Lender within
5 days after the amount is due,  Borrower shall pay to Lender,  immediately  and
without  demand by Lender,  a late  charge  equal to 5 percent  of such  amount.
Borrower acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender
to incur  additional  expenses in servicing and processing the loan evidenced by
this Note (the "LOAN"),  and that it is extremely  difficult and  impractical to
determine  those  additional  expenses.  Borrower  agrees  that the late  charge
payable  pursuant to this Paragraph  represents a fair and reasonable  estimate,
taking into account all circumstances  existing on the date of this Note, of the
additional  expenses Lender will incur by reason of such late payment.  The late
charge is payable in addition  to, and not in lieu of, any  interest  payable at
the Default Rate pursuant to Paragraph 8.

     8. DEFAULT  RATE. So long as any monthly  installment  or any other payment
due under this Note  remains past due for 30 days or more,  interest  under this
Note shall  accrue on the unpaid  principal  balance from the earlier of the due
date  of  the  first  unpaid  monthly  installment  or  other  payment  due,  as
applicable,  at a rate (the "DEFAULT  RATE") equal to the lesser of 4 percentage
points above the rate stated in the first  paragraph of this Note or the maximum
interest rate which may be collected from Borrower under  applicable law. If the
unpaid  principal  balance and all accrued  interest are not paid in full on the
Maturity Date, the unpaid principal  balance and all accrued interest shall bear
interest from the Maturity Date at the Default Rate.  Borrower also acknowledges
that its failure to make timely  payments will cause Lender to incur  additional
expenses in servicing and  processing the Loan,  that,  during the time that any
monthly  installment  or payment under this Note is delinquent  for more than 30
days,  Lender will incur  additional costs and expenses arising from its loss of
the use of the money due and from the adverse impact on Lender's ability to meet
its other  obligations and to take advantage of other investment  opportunities,
and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional
costs and expenses.  Borrower also  acknowledges  that, during the time that any
monthly  installment or other payment due under this Note is delinquent for more
than 30 days,  Lender's  risk of  nonpayment  of this  Note  will be  materially
increased  and Lender is entitled to be  compensated  for such  increased  risk.
Borrower  agrees that the  increase in the rate of interest  payable  under this
Note to the Default Rate represents a fair and reasonable estimate,  taking into
account all  circumstances  existing on the date of this Note, of the additional
costs and  expenses  Lender  will incur by reason of the  Borrower's  delinquent
payment and the  additional  compensation  Lender is entitled to receive for the
increased risks of nonpayment associated with a delinquent loan.

     9. LIMITS ON PERSONAL LIABILITY.

     (a) Except as otherwise  provided in this  Paragraph 9, Borrower shall have
no personal liability under this Note, the Security Instrument or any other Loan
Document for the repayment of the  Indebtedness  or for the  performance  of any
other  obligations  of Borrower  under the Loan  Documents,  and  Lender's  only
recourse for the  satisfaction of the  Indebtedness  and the performance of such
obligations  shall be Lender's  exercise of its rights and remedies with respect
to the Mortgaged  Property and any other  collateral  held by Lender as security
for the Indebtedness. This limitation on Borrower's liability shall not limit or
impair  Lender's  enforcement  of  its  rights  against  any  guarantor  of  the
Indebtedness or any guarantor of any obligations of Borrower.

     (b) Borrower  shall be  personally  liable to Lender for the repayment of a
portion of the Indebtedness  equal to any loss or damage suffered by Lender as a
result of (1) failure of Borrower to pay to Lender upon demand after an Event of
Default,  all  Rents to which  Lender  is  entitled  under  Section  3(a) of the
Security  Instrument  and the  amount  of all  security  deposits  collected  by
Borrower  from tenants then in  residence;  (2) failure of Borrower to apply all
insurance  proceeds  and  condemnation  proceeds  as  required  by the  Security
Instrument;  (3) failure of Borrower to comply with Section  14(d) or (e) of the
Security Instrument  relating to the delivery of books and records,  statements,
schedules  and  reports;  (4) fraud or  written  material  misrepresentation  by
Borrower, Key Principal or any officer, director, partner, member or employee of
Borrower in connection with the application for or creation of the  Indebtedness
or any  request  for any action or consent  by Lender;  or (5)  failure to apply
Rents,  first,  to the  payment of  reasonable  operating  expenses  (other than
Property management fees that are not currently payable pursuant to the terms of
an  Assignment  of  Management  Agreement  or any other  agreement  with  Lender
executed  in  connection  with the  Loan)  and then to  amounts  ("DEBT  SERVICE
AMOUNTS")  payable  under this Note,  the Security  Instrument or any other Loan
Document  (except that Borrower will not be personally  liable (i) to the extent
that  Borrower  lacks the legal  right to direct the  disbursement  of such sums
because of a bankruptcy,  receivership or similar judicial  proceeding,  or (ii)
with respect to Rents that are  distributed in any calendar year if Borrower has
paid all operating expenses and Debt Service Amounts for that calendar year).

     (c) Borrower shall become  personally liable to Lender for the repayment of
all of the  Indebtedness  upon the occurrence of any of the following  Events of
Default: (1) Borrower's acquisition of any property or operation of any business
not permitted by Section 33 of the Security  Instrument;  or (2) a Transfer that
is an Event of Default under Section 21 of the Security Instrument.

     (d) To the extent that Borrower has personal liability under this Paragraph
9, Lender may exercise its rights against Borrower  personally without regard to
whether  Lender has exercised any rights  against the Mortgaged  Property or any
other  security,  or pursued any rights  against any  guarantor,  or pursued any
other rights available to Lender under this Note, the Security  Instrument,  any
other Loan  Document or  applicable  law. For purposes of this  Paragraph 9, the
term "MORTGAGED PROPERTY" shall not include any funds that (1) have been applied
by Borrower as required or  permitted by the  Security  Instrument  prior to the
occurrence  of an Event of  Default,  or (2)  Borrower  was  unable  to apply as
required  or  permitted  by the  Security  Instrument  because of a  bankruptcy,
receivership, or similar judicial proceeding.

     10. VOLUNTARY AND INVOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS.

     (a) A prepayment premium shall be payable in connection with any prepayment
made under this Note as provided below:

          (1) Borrower may voluntarily prepay all (but not less than all) of the
     unpaid  principal  balance  of this  Note  on the  last  Business  Day of a
     calendar  month if Borrower  has given Lender at least 30 days prior notice
     of its intention to make such prepayment.  Such prepayment shall be made by
     paying (A) the amount of principal being prepaid, (B) all accrued interest,
     (C) all other sums due Lender at the time of such  prepayment,  and (D) the
     prepayment  premium  calculated  pursuant to Schedule A. For all  purposes,
     including the accrual of interest, any prepayment received by Lender on any
     day other than the last  calendar  day of the month shall be deemed to have
     been received on the last calendar day of such month.  For purposes of this
     Note, a "Business  Day" means any day other than a Saturday,  Sunday or any
     other day on which Lender is not open for business.

          (2) Upon  Lender's  exercise of any right of  acceleration  under this
     Note,  Borrower  shall pay to Lender,  in  addition  to the  entire  unpaid
     principal balance of this Note outstanding at the time of the acceleration,
     (A) all accrued  interest and all other sums due Lender under this Note and
     the  other  Loan  Documents,  and (B)  the  prepayment  premium  calculated
     pursuant to Schedule A.

          (3) Any  application  by Lender of any collateral or other security to
     the repayment of any portion of the unpaid  principal  balance of this Note
     prior to the  Maturity  Date and in the  absence of  acceleration  shall be
     deemed to be a partial  prepayment  by Borrower,  requiring  the payment to
     Lender by Borrower of a prepayment premium.  The amount of any such partial
     prepayment  shall be  computed  so as to  provide  to  Lender a  prepayment
     premium  computed  pursuant  to Schedule A without  Borrower  having to pay
     out-of-pocket any additional amounts.

     (b)  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of Paragraph  10(a),  no  prepayment
premium shall be payable with respect to (A) any prepayment made no more than 90
days before the Maturity  Date, or (B) any  prepayment  occurring as a result of
the  application  of any  insurance  proceeds  or  condemnation  award under the
Security Instrument.

     (c) Schedule A is hereby incorporated by reference into this Note.

     (d) Any required  prepayment of less than the unpaid  principal  balance of
this Note shall not extend or postpone  the due date of any  subsequent  monthly
installments  or change the amount of such  installments,  unless  Lender agrees
otherwise in writing.

     (e) Borrower recognizes that any prepayment of the unpaid principal balance
of this Note,  whether  voluntary or  involuntary or resulting from a default by
Borrower,  will result in Lender's incurring loss, including  reinvestment loss,
additional expense and frustration or impairment of Lender's ability to meet its
commitments  to third  parties.  Borrower  agrees to pay to Lender  upon  demand
damages  for the  detriment  caused by any  prepayment,  and  agrees  that it is
extremely  difficult  and  impractical  to ascertain the extent of such damages.
Borrower  therefore  acknowledges  and agrees that the  formula for  calculating
prepayment  premiums set forth on Schedule A represents a reasonable estimate of
the damages Lender will incur because of a prepayment.

     (f) Borrower further acknowledges that the prepayment premium provisions of
this Note are a material  part of the  consideration  for the loan  evidenced by
this Note,  and  acknowledges  that the terms of this Note are in other respects
more favorable to Borrower as a result of the Borrower's  voluntary agreement to
the prepayment premium provisions.

     11.  COSTS AND  EXPENSES.  Borrower  shall pay on demand all  expenses  and
costs,  including  fees and  out-of-pocket  expenses  of  attorneys  and  expert
witnesses  and  costs of  investigation,  incurred  by Lender as a result of any
default under this Note or in connection  with efforts to collect any amount due
under  this  Note,  or to  enforce  the  provisions  of any of  the  other  Loan
Documents,  including those incurred in post-judgment  collection efforts and in
any  bankruptcy  proceeding  (including any action for relief from the automatic
stay of any  bankruptcy  proceeding)  or  judicial or  non-judicial  foreclosure
proceeding.

     12.  FORBEARANCE.  Any  forbearance  by Lender in  exercising  any right or
remedy under this Note, the Security  Instrument,  or any other Loan Document or
otherwise  afforded by applicable  law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the
exercise of that or any other right or remedy.  The  acceptance by Lender of any
payment after the due date of such  payment,  or in an amount which is less than
the required payment,  shall not be a waiver of Lender's right to require prompt
payment  when due of all other  payments or to exercise any right or remedy with
respect to any  failure to make  prompt  payment.  Enforcement  by Lender of any
security for  Borrower's  obligations  under this Note shall not  constitute  an
election by Lender of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right
or remedy available to Lender.

     13. WAIVERS.  Presentment,  demand, notice of dishonor,  protest, notice of
acceleration,  notice of intent to demand or  accelerate  payment  or  maturity,
presentment  for  payment,  notice  of  nonpayment,   grace,  and  diligence  in
collecting  the  Indebtedness  are waived by Borrower,  Key  Principal,  and all
endorsers and guarantors of this Note and all other third party obligors.

         14. LOAN CHARGES. If any applicable law limiting the amount of interest
or other charges permitted to be collected from Borrower in connection with the
Loan is interpreted so that any interest or other charge provided for in any
Loan Document, whether considered separately or together with other charges
provided for in any other Loan Document, violates that law, and Borrower is
entitled to the benefit of that law, that interest or charge is hereby reduced
to the extent necessary to eliminate that violation. The amounts, if any,
previously paid to Lender in excess of the permitted amounts shall be applied by
Lender to reduce the unpaid principal balance of this Note. For the purpose of
determining whether any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other
charges permitted to be collected from Borrower has been violated, all
Indebtedness that constitutes interest, as well as all other charges made in
connection with the Indebtedness that constitute interest, shall be deemed to be
allocated and spread ratably over the stated term of the Note. Unless otherwise
required by applicable law, such allocation and spreading shall be effected in
such a manner that the rate of interest so computed is uniform throughout the
stated term of the Note.

     15. COMMERCIAL PURPOSE.  Borrower represents that the Indebtedness is being
incurred  by  Borrower  solely for the  purpose  of  carrying  on a business  or
commercial enterprise, and not for personal, family or household purposes.

     16. COUNTING OF DAYS.  Except where otherwise  specifically  provided,  any
reference in this Note to a period of "days" means  calendar  days, not Business
Days.

     17.  GOVERNING  LAW.  This  Note  shall  be  governed  by  the  law  of the
jurisdiction in which the Land is located.

     18.  CAPTIONS.  The  captions  of the  paragraphs  of  this  Note  are  for
convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Note.

     19.  NOTICES.  All notices,  demands and other  communications  required or
permitted to be given by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Note shall be given
in accordance with Section 31 of the Security Instrument.

     20.  CONSENT TO  JURISDICTION  AND VENUE.  Borrower and Key Principal  each
agrees that any  controversy  arising under or in relation to this Note shall be
litigated  exclusively  in the  jurisdiction  in which the Land is located  (the
"Property  Jurisdiction").  The state and federal  courts and  authorities  with
jurisdiction in the Property Jurisdiction shall have exclusive jurisdiction over
all controversies  which shall arise under or in relation to this Note. Borrower
and Key Principal each irrevocably consents to service,  jurisdiction, and venue
of such  courts for any such  litigation  and waives any other venue to which it
might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise.

     21.  WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.  BORROWER,  KEY PRINCIPAL AND LENDER EACH (A)
AGREES  NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY WITH  RESPECT TO ANY ISSUE  ARISING  OUT OF
THIS NOTE OR THE RELATIONSHIP  BETWEEN THE PARTIES AS LENDER,  KEY PRINCIPAL AND
BORROWER THAT IS TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY A JURY AND (B) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY WITH  RESPECT TO SUCH ISSUE TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT EXISTS NOW OR
IN THE FUTURE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN BY EACH
PARTY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH THE BENEFIT OF COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL.

                ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT OF KEY PRINCIPAL TO
           PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR EXCEPTIONS TO NON-RECOURSE LIABILITY

     Key  Principal,  who has an  economic  interest  in  Borrower  or who  will
otherwise obtain a material  financial benefit from the Loan, hereby absolutely,
unconditionally  and  irrevocably  agrees to pay to Lender,  or its assigns,  on
demand, all amounts for which Borrower is personally liable under Paragraph 9 of
the Multifamily Note to which this Acknowledgment is attached (the "NOTE").  The
obligations  of Key Principal  shall  survive any  foreclosure  proceeding,  any
foreclosure  sale,  any  delivery  of any deed in lieu of  foreclosure,  and any
release of record of the  Security  Instrument.  Lender may pursue its  remedies
against Key Principal without first exhausting its remedies against the Borrower
or the Mortgaged  Property.  All capitalized  terms used but not defined in this
Acknowledgment  shall  have the  meanings  given to such  terms in the  Security
Instrument.  As used in this  Acknowledgment,  the term "Key Principal" (each if
more than one) shall mean only those  individuals  or entities that execute this
Acknowledgment.

     The  obligations  of Key  Principal  shall be performed  without  demand by
Lender and shall be unconditional irrespective of the genuineness,  validity, or
enforceability  of the Note, or any other Loan  Document,  and without regard to
any other  circumstance  which might  otherwise  constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of a surety or a guarantor. Key Principal hereby waives the benefit of
all  principles or provisions of law, which are or might be in conflict with the
terms of this Acknowledgment,  and agrees that Key Principal's obligations shall
not be affected by any circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor.  Key Principal hereby waives the
benefits  of any  right of  discharge  and all  other  rights  under any and all
statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, diligence in collecting the Indebtedness,  presentment, demand
for  payment,  protest,  all notices  with  respect to the Note  including  this
Acknowledgment,  which may be required by statute,  rule of law or  otherwise to
preserve  Lender's  rights  against  Key  Principal  under this  Acknowledgment,
including  notice of acceptance,  notice of any amendment of the Loan Documents,
notice of the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, notice of intent to
accelerate,  notice of acceleration,  notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure,
notice of protest,  notice of the  incurring  by Borrower of any  obligation  or
indebtedness  and all rights to require Lender to (a) proceed against  Borrower,
(b) proceed  against any general  partner of  Borrower,  (c) proceed  against or
exhaust  any  collateral   held  by  Lender  to  secure  the  repayment  of  the
Indebtedness,  or (d) if Borrower is a  partnership,  pursue any other remedy it
may have against Borrower, or any general partner of Borrower. In addition,  Key
Principal waives the benefit of O.C.G.A. ss. 10-7-24.

     At any time without  notice to Key  Principal,  and without  affecting  the
liability of Key Principal hereunder,  (a) the time for payment of the principal
of or interest on the  Indebtedness  may be extended or the  Indebtedness may be
renewed  in whole or in part;  (b) the  time for  Borrower's  performance  of or
compliance  with any covenant or agreement  contained in the Note,  or any other
Loan Document,  whether presently  existing or hereinafter  entered into, may be
extended or such  performance or compliance  may be waived;  (c) the maturity of
the  Indebtedness  may be  accelerated as provided in the Note or any other Loan
Document;  (d) the Note or any other Loan Document may be modified or amended by
Lender and  Borrower in any  respect,  including  an  increase in the  principal
amount;  and (e) any security for the Indebtedness  may be modified,  exchanged,
surrendered  or otherwise  dealt with or  additional  security may be pledged or
mortgaged for the Indebtedness.

     Key  Principal  acknowledges  that Key Principal has received a copy of the
Note and all other Loan Documents.  Neither this  Acknowledgment  nor any of its
provisions may be waived, modified, amended, discharged, or terminated except by
an agreement in writing signed by the party against which the enforcement of the
waiver, modification,  amendment,  discharge, or termination is sought, and then
only to the extent set forth in that agreement.  Key Principal  agrees to notify
Lender (in the manner for giving notices  provided in Section 31 of the Security
Instrument)  of any change of Key  Principal's  address  within 10 Business Days
after such change of address occurs. Any notices to Key Principal shall be given
in the manner provided in Section 31 of the Security  Instrument.  Key Principal
agrees to be bound by Paragraphs 20 and 21 of the Note.

     THIS  ACKNOWLEDGMENT IS AN INSTRUMENT SEPARATE FROM, AND NOT A PART OF, THE
NOTE. BY SIGNING THIS ACKNOWLEDGMENT, KEY PRINCIPAL DOES NOT INTEND TO BECOME AN
ACCOMMODATION PARTY TO, OR AN ENDORSER OF, THE NOTE.

     IN  WITNESS   WHEREOF,   Key  Principal  has  signed  and  delivered   this
Acknowledgment  under seal or has caused  this  Acknowledgment  to be signed and
delivered by its duly authorized representative under seal.

                                   SCHEDULE A

                               PREPAYMENT PREMIUM


     Any  prepayment  premium  payable under  Paragraph 10 of this Note shall be
computed as follows:

     (a)  If the prepayment is made during the first 9.5 years  beginning on the

                                        366-day years, if applicable), and
                                        any fraction thereof, remaining between
                                        the Prepayment Date and the expiration
                                        of the Yield Maintenance Period]



                    In the  event  that  no  Yield  Rate  is  published  for the

                    equivalent  U.S.  Treasury  Security  shall be  selected  at
                    Lender's discretion.  If the publication of such Yield Rates
                    in The Wall Street  Journal is  discontinued,  Lender  shall
                    determine such Yield Rates from another  source  selected by
                    Lender.

                    For purposes of subparagraph  (ii)(C), the "Prepayment Date"
                    shall be (x) in the case of a voluntary prepayment, the date
                    on which the  prepayment is made, and (y) in any other case,
                    the date on which Lender  accelerates  the unpaid  principal
                    balance of this Note.

     (b)  If  the   prepayment  is  made  after  the  expiration  of  the  Yield
          Maintenance Period but more than 90 days before the Maturity Date, the
          prepayment premium shall be 1% of the unpaid principal balance of this
          Note.
