Consideration");

                  (ii) An amount equal to (x) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000)
(or such lesser amount as may be payable to the former holders of the Company
Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.05), DIVIDED BY (y) the Outstanding Common

together with the Cash Consideration and the Holdback Consideration, the "Merger

         (b) At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock shall (i)
be converted into the right to receive the cash or a portion of the
Indemnification Promissory Note as determined in accordance with this Article

shares of Company Common Stock (each a "Certificate") shall thereafter represent
the right to receive the Merger Consideration determined in accordance with
Sections 2.02(a) of this Reorganization Agreement.

         (c) At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock that are
owned by Company as treasury stock and all shares of Company Common Stock that
are owned directly or indirectly by Acquiror, any of its Subsidiaries, Company,
or any Company Subsidiary, other than (i) any shares of Company Common Stock
held directly or indirectly in trust accounts, managed accounts and the like or
otherwise held in a fiduciary capacity that are beneficially owned by Persons
other than Acquiror, any of its Subsidiaries, Company, or any Company
Subsidiary, and (ii) any shares of Company Common Stock held by Acquiror, any of
its Subsidiaries, Company, or any Company Subsidiary, in respect of a debt

contrary and unless otherwise provided by applicable law, shares of Company
Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time and that are owned by Company Shareholders who have properly demanded
payment of the fair market value of their stock (the "Dissenting Shares") within
the meaning of Section 1301 of California Law shall not be converted into the
right to receive the Merger Consideration unless and until such Company
Shareholders shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn
their demand, or lost their right of payment under applicable law. If any such
Company Shareholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively
withdrawn or lost such right of payment, each share of Company Common Stock held
by such Company Shareholder shall thereupon be deemed converted into the right
to receive and exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration
pursuant to Sections 2.02 of this Reorganization Agreement. Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Reorganization Agreement, at and after the Effective
Time, any holder of shares of Company Common Stock who complies with Section

Company Dissenting Shareholder's shares of Company Common Stock as determined

permissible under California Law, no such payment shall be made unless and until
such Company Dissenting Shareholder has surrendered to the Exchange Agent the
Certificate representing the shares of Company Common Stock for which payment is
being made.

         (e) Company shall give Acquiror (i) prompt notice of any written notice
of intent to demand payment for shares filed pursuant to Section 1301 of
California Law received by Company, withdrawals of such notices, and any other
instruments served in connection with such notices pursuant to the relevant
provisions of California Law and received by Company and (ii) the opportunity to
direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such notices under
California Law consistent with the obligations of Company thereunder. Company
shall not, except with the prior written consent of Acquiror (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld), (A) make any payment with respect to any such notice,
(B) offer to settle or settle any such notices or (C) waive any failure to
timely deliver a written notice in accordance with the California Law.

SECTION 2.04  [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]




SECTION 2.05  HOLDBACK CONSIDERATION; DETERMINATION OF CLOSING ADJUSTMENT

determination of the Closing Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.05(b), Acquiror
shall pay to the former holders of Company Common Stock, the Holdback
consideration LESS the Closing Adjustment, if any.

         (b) DETERMINATION OF CLOSING ADJUSTMENT. The "Closing Adjustment" shall
equal (i) the amount by which (A) the cash, PLUS (B) the fair market value of
the marketable securities, PLUS (C) the account receivable payable by NASA (or
by the University of Houston based upon its contract with NASA) to the Company
in an amount equal to approximately $870,000 (provided such account receivable
has not been paid prior to Closing), and MINUS (D) the Transaction Expenses
(provided such Transaction Expenses have not been paid) of the Company and the
Company Subsidiary on the Closing Date is greater than or less than Four Million
Dollars ($4,000,000) (after taking into consideration the adjustments made in
computing the Adjusted Merger Consideration based on the estimate of the Closing
Adjustment required to be delivered to Acquiror pursuant to Section 7.02(g) of
this Reorganization Agreement), PLUS (ii) an amount equal to the amount by which
the "accounts receivable" on the Company's balance sheet dated January 22, 2000
is less than the amount determined to be the "accounts receivable" of the
Company as a result of the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the
Company as of the Closing Date by Arthur Andersen LLP, the Acquiror's
independent public accountants, (determined using the same accounting method as
used by the Company prior to December 31, 1999), PLUS (iii) an amount by which
the "current liabilities" on the Company's balance sheet dated as of January 22,
2000 is less than the "current liabilities" of the Company as determined by
Arthur Andersen LLP, if any (determined in accordance with GAAP) as hereinafter
provided; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no adjustment shall be made to the Closing
Adjustment as a result of the operation of clauses (ii) and (iii) if the
difference between the Company's determination of the amounts identified by the
Company in clauses (ii) and (iii) and Arthur Anderson LLP's audit of such
amounts does not exceed $100,000. The Company will use its best efforts to close
its books and records for the period ending on the Closing Date within twenty
(20) days after the Closing Date and shall deliver to the Acquiror or, at the
request of the Acquiror, to Acquiror and Arthur Andersen LLP, such books and
records as shall be requested by Acquiror or Arthur Andersen LLP to enable
Arthur Andersen LLP to perform an audit of the items identified in clause (i) of
the preceding sentence as of the Closing Date and of the items identified in
clauses (ii) and (iii)


                                       5
<PAGE>


of the preceding sentences as of January 22, 2000 and to determine the amount
of the Closing Adjustment based thereon. Upon receipt of such books and
records, the Acquiror shall use its best efforts to cause Arthur Andersen LLP to
complete an audit of such items and to calculate the amount of the Closing
Adjustment within thirty (30) days following receipt of the books and records of
the Company. Acquiror shall deliver to the Shareholders' Representative a copy
of such audits and the amount of the Closing Adjustment promptly upon receipt of
such items from Arthur Andersen LLP. The Shareholders' Representative shall have
the right to review and copy the computations and workpapers used in connection
with the preparation of the such audits and the computation of the Closing
Adjustment. If the Shareholders' Representative disagrees with the Closing
Adjustment, the Shareholders' Representative shall so notify the Acquiror in
writing within ten (10) days after the date of receipt of the such audits and
the computation of the Closing Adjustment, specifying in detail any point of
disagreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if the Shareholders' Representative fails to
notify the Acquiror in writing of the Shareholders' Representative's
disagreement within such ten (10) day period, the determination of the Closing
Adjustment shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties for purposes of
determining the amount of the Holdback Consideration to be released to the
former holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.05(a), but shall
not limit Acquiror's other rights pursuant to this Reorganization Agreement or
any other document delivered in connection with this Reorganization Agreement.
The Acquiror and the Shareholders' Representative shall negotiate in good faith
to resolve any such disagreement. If any such disagreement cannot be resolved by
the Acquiror and the Shareholders' Representative within fifteen (15) days after
the Shareholders' Representative has received notice from the Acquiror in
accordance with the preceding sentence of the existence of such disagreement,
the Acquiror and the Shareholders' Representative shall jointly select a
nationally recognized independent public accounting firm (which has not
performed any service since January 1, 1996 for either the Company or the
Acquiror or any of their respective Affiliates (the "Accounting Firm")), to act
as an arbitrator to resolve as expeditiously as possible all points of
disagreement with respect to the Closing Adjustment (or, in the event they are
unable to agree, either may request the Los Angeles, CA office of the American
Arbitration Association to make such selection, which shall be final and binding
on the Parties). All determinations made by the Accounting Firm with respect to
the Closing Adjustment shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties
hereto for purposes of determining the amount of the Holdback Consideration to
be paid to the former holders of Company Common Stock, but shall not limit
Acquiror's other rights pursuant to this Reorganization Agreement or any other
document delivered in connection with this Reorganization Agreement. The fees
and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party.

         (c) APPOINTMENT OF SHAREHOLDERS' REPRESENTATIVE. The Principal
Shareholder shall, by virtue of the Merger, be appointed attorney-in-fact and
authorized and empowered to act, for and on behalf of any or all of the Company
Shareholders (with full power of substitution in the premises), in connection
with the provisions of this Section 2.05 as they relate to the Company and the
Company Shareholders generally, and such other matters as are reasonably
necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
including, without limitation, (i) to review all determinations of the Closing
Adjustment and, to the extent deemed appropriate, dispute, question the accuracy

Subsidiary to unilaterally amend or terminate any such Company Benefit Plan at
any time without incurring any material liability thereunder.

         (e) Neither the execution and delivery of this Reorganization Agreement

                                       17

no material Withdrawal Liability would be incurred; (iii) neither Company nor
any Company Subsidiary has received any notification, nor has any reason to
believe, that any such plan is in reorganization, has been terminated, or may
reasonably be expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, and (iv)

Tax Returns have been filed. There is no dispute or claim concerning any
liability for taxes of Company or any Company Subsidiary either (i) claimed or
raised by any authority in writing or (ii) as to which Company has knowledge

where Acquiror's failure to fulfill any obligation under this Reorganization
Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective
Time to occur on or before such date, or (ii) Company, where Company's or any

                                   ARTICLE IX

                      SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS; REMEDIES


SECTION 9.01  SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS

All representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and other agreements
made by any party to this Reorganization Agreement herein, shall be deemed made
on and as of the Effective Time as though such representations, warranties,
covenants, indemnities and other agreements were


                                       38
<PAGE>

made on and as of such date, and all such representations, warranties,
covenants, indemnities and other agreements shall survive for a period of
twelve (12) months after the Effective Time; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
representations set forth in Section 3.05 (Authority; Binding Obligation),
Section 3.15 (Pension and Benefit Plans), Section 3.16 (Taxes and Tax Matters)
and Section 3.24 (Environmental Matters) shall survive until the expiration of

such claim until the final resolution thereof.


SECTION 9.02  INDEMNIFICATION BY PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER; RIGHT TO OFFSET

         (a) The Principal Shareholder (and the other Company Shareholders only
to the extent of their interest in the Indemnification Promissory Note) hereby
agrees indemnify, defend and hold Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation and their
respective officers and directors, and each person, if any, who controls or may
control Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation within the meaning of the
Securities Act (all such persons hereinafter are referred to individually as an
"Acquiror Indemnified Person" and collectively as "Acquiror Indemnified
Persons," but in no event shall any Shareholder of the Company prior to the
Effective Time be such an Acquiror Indemnified Person) harmless against all
Losses resulting from, imposed upon or incurred by any Acquiror Indemnified
Person, directly or indirectly, as a result of any of the following, anything in
this Reorganization Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding:

                  (i) any inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty
of the Company given or made by the Company in this Reorganization Agreement, in
the Agreement of Merger or in the Company Disclosure Letter or in any
certificate, document or agreement delivered by or on behalf of the Company
pursuant hereto; and

                  (ii) any failure by the Company to perform or comply with any
covenant or agreement contained in this Reorganization Agreement, in the
Agreement of Merger or in the Company Disclosure Letter or in any certificate,
document or agreement delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant hereto.

         (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Reorganization Agreement to the
contrary, the Principal Shareholder shall not be responsible for any Loss
pursuant to this Section 9.02 unless and until the aggregate amount of all of
such Losses shall exceed $100,000, in which case the Principal Shareholder shall
be liable for the entire Loss including the $100,000. In the event, from time to
time, any Acquiror Indemnified Person determines that it has suffered a Loss for
which indemnification is available pursuant to this Article IX, the following
procedure shall be followed:

                  (i) Acquiror Indemnified Person shall give written notice of
any such claim (a "Loss Notice") to the Shareholder Representative specifying in
reasonable detail the amount of the claimed Loss (the "Loss Amount") and the
basis for such Loss and that the Acquiror intends to offset against the
aggregate outstanding amount of principal and accrued but unpaid interest under
the Indemnification Promissory Note the amount of any such Loss.


                                       39
<PAGE>

                  (ii) Within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Loss Notice,
the Shareholder Representative shall provide to Acquiror and the Acquiror
Indemnified Person (if not the same Person), a written response (a "Response
Notice") in which the Shareholder Representative will (i) agree that an offset
in the full Loss Amount may be made against the Indemnification Promissory Note,
(ii) agree that an offset in an amount equal to part, but not all, of the Loss
Amount (the "Agreed Amount") may be made against the Indemnification Promissory
Note or (iii) contest making any offset against the Indemnification Promissory
Note. The Shareholder Representative may contest an offset against the
Indemnification Promissory Note upon a good faith belief that all or such
portion of such offset does not constitute a Loss for which the Acquiror
Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX. If no
Response Notice is delivered by the Shareholder Representative within such
twenty (20) day period, the Principal Shareholder shall be deemed to have agreed
that an offset in the full Loss Amount may be made against the Indemnification
Promissory Note.

                  (iii) If the Shareholder Representative in the Response Notice
agrees (or is deemed to have agreed) that an offset may be made against the
Indemnification Promissory Note in an amount equal to the Loss Amount, the
Acquiror may, promptly following the earlier of the required delivery date of
the Response Notice or the delivery of the Response Notice, cause an offset in
the amount of the Loss Amount to be made to the Indemnification Promissory Note.

                  (iv) If the Shareholder Representative in the Response Notice
agrees that an offset in an amount equal to part, but not all, of the Loss
Amount (the "Agreed Amount") may be made against the Indemnification Promissory
Note, the Acquiror may, promptly following the earlier of the required delivery
date of the Response Notice or the delivery of the Response Notice, cause an
offset in the amount of the Agreed Amount to be made to the Indemnification
Promissory Note.

                  (v) If the Shareholder Representative in the Response Notice
contests an offset against the Indemnification Promissory Note equal to all or
any part of the Loss Amount (the "Contested Amount"), the Acquiror Indemnified
Person and the Shareholder Representative shall negotiate in good faith to
resolve any such dispute. If any such dispute cannot be resolved within fifteen
(15) days after the receipt by the Acquiror of the Response Notice, the Acquiror
Indemnified Person and the Shareholder Representative shall submit the matter to
the Los Angeles, CA office of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") for
binding arbitration to be conducted in accordance with the AAA commercial
arbitration rules in effect at the time such matter is submitted. If any such
matter is submitted to the AAA as provided herein, (A) each of the Acquiror
Indemnified Person and the Shareholder Representative will furnish to AAA such
workpapers and other documents and information as AAA may request and will be
afforded the opportunity to present to AAA any material relevant to the matter,
(B) the determination by AAA, as set forth in a notice delivered to the Acquiror
Indemnified Person and the Shareholder Representative by AAA, will be binding
and conclusive on such parties and (iii) the Acquiror Indemnified Person and the
Principal Shareholder will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees of the AAA
for such determination.

         (c) The indemnity obligations of the Principal Shareholder (and the
other Company Shareholders) under this Article IX shall first be satisfied
through the exercise by the Acquiror of the right of offset against the
aggregate outstanding amount of principal and accrued but unpaid


                                       40
<PAGE>

interest under the Indemnification Promissory Note. The principal amount and
accrued but unpaid interest under the Indemnification Promissory Note shall
in no way be deemed to be a limitation on the recourse available to any Acquiror
Indemnified Person for the indemnification obligations of the Principal
Shareholder hereunder. Following its exhaustion of its offset rights as set
forth above, Acquiror shall have the right to enforce the indemnity obligations
of the Principal Shareholder under this Article IX through an action in a court
of competent jurisdiction.

         (d) The exercise of such right of offset by Acquiror in good faith,
whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, will not constitute a
breach of this Reorganization Agreement. Neither the exercise of nor the failure
to exercise such right of offset will constitute an election of remedies or
limit Acquiror in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies available
to Acquiror.

         (e) No Acquiror Indemnified Person shall be entitled to recover any
special, consequential or exemplary damages under this Section 9.02 or any
damages based on an adverse effect on Acquirer's stock price. The amount of any
Loss shall be reduced to the extent that the Acquiror Indemnified Person
receives any insurance proceeds with respect to a Loss.


SECTION 9.03  THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.

The obligations and liabilities of the Principal Shareholders with respect to
their respective indemnities pursuant to this Article IX, resulting from any
Third Party Claim shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

         (a) The party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") must
give the party obligated to indemnify (the "Indemnifying Party"), notice of any
Third Party Claim which is asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon or
incurred by the Indemnified Party and which may give rise to liability of the
Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article IX, stating (to the extent known or
reasonably anticipated) the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim and the
amount thereof; PROVIDED that the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the rights of the Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent (i) that the
Indemnifying Party shall have suffered actual damage by reason of such failure,
or (ii) such failure or delay materially adversely affects the ability of the
Indemnifying Party to defend, settle or compromise such Third Party Claim.

         (b) Subject to Section 9.03(c) below, if the Indemnifying Party assumes
responsibility for Losses arising out of such Third Party Claim, then the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake, by counsel or other
representatives of its own choosing, the defense of such Third Party Claim at
the Indemnifying Party's risk and expense.

         (c) In the event that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall elect not to
undertake such defense, (ii) within a reasonable time after notice from the
Indemnified Party of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall
fail to undertake to defend such Third Party Claim, or (iii) there is a
reasonable probability that such Third Party Claim may materially and adversely
affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other
money payments, then the Indemnified Party (upon further written notice to the
Indemnifying Party) shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or
settlement of such Third Party Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its
own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the


                                       41
<PAGE>

Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnified Party undertakes the
defense of a Third Party Claim under this Section 9.03, the Indemnifying Party
shall pay to the Indemnified Party, in addition to the other sums required to be
paid hereunder, the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified
Party in connection with such defense, compromise or settlement as and when such
costs and expenses are so incurred.

         (d) Anything in this Section 9.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i)
neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party shall, without the
other party's written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), settle or compromise such Third Party Claim or consent to entry of
any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all
liability in respect of such Third Party Claim in form and substance
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; (ii) in the event that a party hereto
undertakes defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section
9.03, the other parties, by counsel or other representative of their own
choosing and at their sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate
in the defense, compromise or settlement thereof and each party and its counsel
and other representatives shall cooperate with the other party and its counsel
and representatives in connection therewith; and (iii) the party that undertakes
the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 9.03 shall
have an obligation to keep the other parties informed of the status of the
defense of such Third Party Claim and furnish the other parties with all
documents, instruments and information that the other parties shall reasonably
request in connection therewith.

SECTION 9.04  NO RECOURSE AGAINST THE COMPANY

The Company Shareholders including, without limitation, the Principal
Shareholders, each hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to recourse
against the Company and the Surviving Corporation with respect to any
misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty or indemnity, or
noncompliance with any conditions or covenants, given or made by the Company in
this Reorganization Agreement or any other agreements and documents executed or
to be executed by the Parties hereto in order to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Reorganization Agreement. No Company Shareholder,
including, without limitation, the Principal Shareholder, shall be entitled to
contribution from, subrogation to or recovery against the Company or the
Surviving Corporation with respect to any liability of any Company Shareholder,
including, without limitation, the Principal Shareholder, that may arise under
or pursuant to this Reorganization Agreement or any of the other agreements and
documents executed or to be executed by the Parties hereto in order to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Reorganization Agreement or
such other agreements and documents contemplated hereby.


SECTION 9.05  REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

Subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in this Article IX, the
remedies provided herein shall be cumulative and shall not preclude the
assertion by the parties hereto of any other rights or the seeking of any other
remedies against the other parties, or their respective successors or assigns.

         This Note has been executed under and pursuant to the Reorganization
Agreement to which reference is hereby made for the terms and conditions upon
which this Note has been delivered.

         The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a
default ("default") hereunder:


<PAGE>

         (1) Failure to pay, when due, the principal, any interest, or any other
sum payable hereunder;

         (2) The making by Maker of any general assignment for the benefit of
creditors;

         (3) The commencement by the Maker of any case, proceeding, or other
action seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation,
dissolution, or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization, or relief of debtors, or seeking
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for it
or for all or any substantial part of its property;

         (4) The commencement of any case, proceeding, or other action against
the Maker seeking to have any order for relief entered against the Maker as
debtor, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation,
dissolution, or composition of the Maker or its debts under any law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or relief of debtors, or seeking
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for the
Maker or for all or any substantial part of the property of the Maker, and (i)
the Maker shall, by any act or omission, indicate its consent to, approval of,
or acquiescence in such case, proceeding, or action, or (ii) such case,
proceeding, or action results in the entry of an order for relief which is not
fully stayed within sixty (60) days after the entry thereof, or (iii) such case,
proceeding, or action remains undismissed for a period of sixty (60) days or
more.

         Upon the occurrence of a default hereunder and Maker's failure to cure
the same within five (5) days after receipt of written notice thereof, the
entire principal amount hereof, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
shall be accelerated, and shall be immediately due and payable, at the option of
the Holder, without demand or notice. Failure to exercise said option or to
pursue such other remedies shall not constitute a waiver of such option or such
other remedies or of the right to exercise any of the same in the event of any
subsequent default hereunder which remains uncured beyond any applicable grace
or cure periods.

         Maker hereby waives presentment, protest, demand, notice of dishonor,
and all other notices, and all defenses and pleas on the grounds of any
extension or extensions of the time of payments or the due dates of this Note,
in whole or in part, before or after maturity, with or without notice. No
renewal or extension of this Note, no release or surrender of any collateral
given as security for this Note, no release of Maker, and no delay in
enforcement of this Note or in exercising any right or power hereunder, shall

         No single or partial exercise by the Holder of any right hereunder, or
under any other agreement pertaining hereto, shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other rights. No delay or omission on
the part of the Holder in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver of such right or of any other right under this Note.

         This Note is hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or
event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, shall the
amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Holder for the use, forbearance or
detention of money hereunder exceed the maximum amount permissible under
applicable law. If from any circumstance whatsoever fulfillment of any


                                       2
<PAGE>

provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall
involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then IPSO FACTO,
the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity,
and if from any such circumstance the Holder shall ever receive interest, or
anything which might be deemed interest under applicable law, which would
exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest
shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on account of
this Note and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest
exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of this Note, such excess shall be
refunded to the Maker. The terms and provisions of this paragraph shall control
and supersede every other provision of this Note and all other agreements
between the Maker and the Holder.

         Any payment on this Note coming due on a Saturday, a Sunday, or a day
which is a legal holiday in the place at which a payment is to be made hereunder
shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a business day in such place.
