1. The Agreement. This Revolving Note is issued pursuant to

principal amount hereof shall accrue from the date hereof until the earlier of
(i) the occurrence of an Event of Default or (ii) December 31, 2000 (which is
defined in the Agreement as the "Maturity Date"), at the rates set forth in the
Agreement. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed over a year of 360 days. From and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, principal amounts outstanding hereunder shall bear interest at the
default rate as set forth in the Agreement.
3. Payment of Principal and Interest. Interest on the

respect to such repayment. All outstanding principal hereunder shall be due and
payable, together with any and all accrued interest thereon, on the Maturity
Date.
