Date of Note: May 9, 2012
Principal Amount: $650,000.00
PROMISE TO PAY. SKM Media Group, Inc ("Borrower") promises to pay to JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Six Hundred Fifty Thousand & 00/100 Dollars ($650,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding, together with interest on the unpaid outstanding principal balance of each advance. Interest shall be calculated from the date of each advance until repayment of each advance.
PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding principal plus all accrued unpaid interest on May 17, 2013. In addition, Borrower will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning June 17, 2012, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same day of each month after that. Payments and any other credits shall be allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of Lender unless otherwise required by applicable law. Interest on this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown on loan account statements sent to the Borrower, Lender's address shown in any payment coupon book provided to the Borrower, or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an index which is the LIBOR Rate (the "Index"). "LIBOR Rate" shall mean the offered rate for U.S. Dollar deposits of not less than $1,000,000.00 for a period of time equal to each Interest Period as of 11:00 A.M.

Interest Settlement Rates" on the Reuters Screen ("Reuters") LIBOR01 Page, or such other page or pages as may replace such pages on Reuters for the purpose of displaying such rate. Provided, however, that if such rate is not available on Reuters then such offered rate shall be otherwise independently determined by Lender from an alternate, substantially similar independent source available to Lender or shall be calculated by Lender by a substantially similar methodology as that theretofore used to determine such offered rate in Reuters. "London Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close in the City of London, England. Each change in the rate to be charged on this Note will become effective without notice on the commencement of each Interest Period based upon the Index then in effect. "Interest Period" means each consecutive one month period (the first of which shall commence on the date of this Note) effective as of the first day of each Interest Period and ending on the last day of each Interest Period, provided that if any Interest Period is scheduled to end on a date for which there is no numerical equivalent to the date on which the Interest Period commenced, then it shall end instead on the last day of such calendar month. The interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be at a rate of 3.761 percentage points over the Index. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the effective rate of interest on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
PREPAYMENT. Borrower may pay without fee all or a portion of the principal amount owed hereunder earlier than it is due. All prepayments shall be applied to the Indebtedness in such order and manner as Lender may from time to time determine in its sole discretion. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Business Banking Loan Servicing Disputed Accounts Department, P.O. Box 33035 Louisville, KY 40232-9891.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the regularly scheduled payment or $25.00, whichever is greater.
INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, including, but not limited to, (i) any material adverse change in the business assets, affairs, prospects or financial condition of Borrower or any guarantor, (ii) failing to provide financial statements, copies of Federal tax returns and other information relating to the financial condition, properties and affairs of the Borrower, any guarantor or grantor, as provided for in this Note and/or any Related Document, or (iii) failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender may, at Lender's option and if permitted by applicable law, a) add any unpaid accrued interest to principal and such sum will bear interest therefrom until paid at the rate provided in this Note, including any increased rate, and/or b), increase the interest rate on this Note by 3.000 percentage points (the "Default Rate Margin"). The Default Rate Margin shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no Event of Default. However, in no event will the interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate allowed under applicable law.

Additionally, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and until the entire unpaid principal balance on this Note and the Indebtedness is paid in full, without notice or demand and without waiving any other right or remedy, Lender may, at Lender's option, elect to impose increases in the interest rate pursuant to and as set forth in the section of this Note captioned "INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT" and, if included in this Note, the section captioned "PERFORMANCE BASED RATE CHANGES.

Borrower does not agree or intend to pay, and Lender does not agree or intend to contract for, charge, collect, take, reserve or receive (collectively referred to herein as "charge or collect"), any amount in the nature of interest or in the nature of a fee for this loan, which would in any way or event (including demand, prepayment, or acceleration) cause Lender to charge or collect more for this loan than the maximum Lender would be permitted to charge or collect by federal law or the law of the State of Florida (as applicable). Any such excess interest or unauthorized fee shall, instead of anything stated to the contrary, be applied first to reduce the principal balance of this loan, and when the principal has been paid in full, be refunded to Borrower. If any part of this Note cannot be enforced, this fact will not affect the rest of this Note. It is agreed that any payment which would otherwise for any reason be deemed unlawful interest under applicable law shall be deemed to have been applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note, or to other Indebtedness.

Lender may delay or forgo enforcing any of its rights or remedies under this Note without losing them. Borrower and any other person who signs, guarantees or endorses this Note, to the extent allowed by law, waive presentment, demand for payment, and notice of dishonor.

All such parties agree that Lender may renew or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan or release any party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect Lender's security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed necessary by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made. Unless specifically permitted otherwise by the terms and conditions of this Note, no alteration of or amendment to this Note shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's sale or transfer, whether now or later, of this Note, or the Related Documents or of any participation interest in this Note or Related Documents to one or more purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender.
