TERM NOTE B
(Any Interest Rate)
636814/32109
$173,106.13 Irvine, California
July 1,2000
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned. Spectrum Laboratories, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), promises to pay to the order of City National
Bank, a national banking association ("CNB"), at its Office located at 9
Executive Circle, Irvine, California 92614 the principal amount of One Hundred
Seventy Three Thousand One Hundred Six and 13/100 Dollars ($173,106.13), plus
interest on the unpaid principal balance, computed on the basis of a 360-day
year, actual days elapsed, at the rates, times and in accordance with the terms
of that certain Credit Agreement between Borrower and CNB, dated as of December
22, 1998, as may be amended from time to time (the "Credit Agreement").
Principal is payable in twenty one (21) consecutive monthly installments,
consisting of twenty (20) installments each in the amount of $8,530.00, and a
final installment in the amount of $2,506.13, commencing August 1, 2000, and

which day the balance of principal and interest thereon unpaid shall become due
and payable. Capitalized terms not defined herein will have the meanings given

If payment on this Note becomes due and payable on a non-business day,
the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next business day and, with
respect to payments of principal or interest thereon, shall be payable during
such extension at the then applicable rate. Upon the occurrence of one or more
of the Events of Default specified in the Credit Agreement, all amounts
remaining unpaid on this Term Note may become or be declared to be immediately
payable as provided in the Credit Agreement, without presentment, demand or
notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly waived. Borrower agrees to pay
all costs of collection of this Note and reasonable attorneys' fees (including
attorneys' fees allocable to CNB's in-house counsel) in connection therewith,
irrespective of whether suit is brought thereon.
This is the Term Note B referred to in the Credit Agreement and is
entitled to the benefits thereof, and supersedes and replaces in its entirety
that certain Term Note B dated July 14, 1999 in the original principal sum of
$275,465.44 executed by Borrower in favor of CNB.
Upon CNB's written notice to Borrower of the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the outstanding principal balance (and interest, to the extent
permitted by law) shall bear additional interest from the date of such notice at
the rate of Five Percent (5.0%) per annum higher than the interest rate as
determined and computed above, and continuing thereafter until the Event of
Default is cured.
This Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. If
this Note is executed by more than one Borrower, all obligations are joint and
several.
