                              ADJUSTABLE RATE NOTE


Dated June 17, 1994, Beckley, West Virginia

Address of Secured Property: 108 Club Circle, Daniels, WV 25832

1. BORROWER'S PROMISE TO PAY
     In  return  for  a  loan  that I  have  received,  I  promise  to pay  U.S.
$200,050.00, plus interest, to the order of the Lender. The Lender is (Bank Name
Omitted)  ,  organized  and  existing  under  the laws of the  United  States of
America,  (Street  Address of Bank Omitted) , Beckley,  West Virginia  25802. 
I understand  that the Lender may transfer  this Note.  The Lender or anyone who
takes this note by transfer and who is entitled to receive  payments  under this
Note is called the "Note Holder."

2. INTEREST
     Interest will be charged on unpaid principal until the full amount has been
paid.  I will pay interest at a yearly rate of 7.99%.  The interest  rate I will
pay will change in  accordance  with Section 4 of this Note.  The interest  rate
required  by this  Section  2 and  Section 4 of this Note is the rate I will pay
both  before  and after any  default  described  in  Section  7(C) of this Note.
Interest will be calculated on a 30/360 basis.

3. PAYMENT
     (A)Scheduled Payments
     I will make my scheduled  payments on the 17th day of each month  beginning
     on July 17, 1994. 
     (B)Maturity Date and Place of Payments
     I will  make  these  payments  as  scheduled  until I have  paid all of the
     principal and interest and any other charges described below that I may owe
     under this Note. My scheduled  payments will be applied to interest  before
     principal.  If, on June 17,  2019,  I still owe amounts  under this Note, I
     will pay those amounts in full on that date,  which is called the "maturity
     date." 
     I will make my  scheduled  payments at (Street  Address of Bank  Omitted) ,
     Beckley, WV 25802 or at a different place if required by the Note Holder.
     (C)Amount of My Initial  Scheduled  Payments  Each of my initial  scheduled
     payments will be in the amount of U.S.$ 1,542.69. This amount may change.
     (D)Scheduled  Payment Changes 
     Changes  in my  scheduled  payments  will  reflect  changes  in the  unpaid
     principal  of my loan and in the  interest  rate that I must pay.  The Note
     Holder will  determine  my new interest  rate and the changed  amount of my
     scheduled payment in accordance with Section 4 of this Note.




<PAGE>

(4) INTEREST RATE AND SCHEDULED PAYMENT CHANGES
     (A)Change Dates
     The interest rate that I will pay may change on the 17th day of June,  1999
     and on every 17th day of each 60th month thereafter.

     (B)The Index
     Beginning  with the first Change Date, my interest rate will be based on an
     Index.  The "Index" is "The Weekly Average Yield of US Treasury  Securities
     Adjusted to a Constant  Maturity of Five Years." The initial value for this
     is 6.56%.  The most recent  Index  figure  available as of the date 45 days
     before each Change Date is called the  "Current  Index." If the Index is no
     longer  valid,  the Note Holder will choose a new index which is based upon
     comparable information. The Note Holder will give me notice of this choice.

     (C)Calculation of Changes
     Before each Change  Date,  the Note Holder will  calculate  my new interest
     rate by adding three  percentage  points (3.000%) to the Current Index. The
     result of this  calculation  will be rounded  off by the Note Holder to the
     nearest 0.125%.  Subject to limitations  stated in Section 4(D) below, this
     amount will be my interest rate until the next Change Date. The Note Holder
     will then  determine  the  amount of the  scheduled  payment  that would be
     sufficient to repay the unpaid  principal  that I am expected to owe at the
     Change  Date in  full  on the  maturity  date  at my new  interest  rate in
     substantially  equal payments.  The result of this  calculation will be the
     new amount of my scheduled payment.

     (D)Limits on Interest Rate Changes
     My interest  rate will never be increased or decreased on any single change
     date by more than two percentage  points (2.000%) from the rate of interest
     I have been paying for the preceding period. My interest rate will never be
     greater than 13.990% or less than 3.000%.

     (E)Effective Date of Changes
     My new interest rate will become  effective on each Change Date. I will pay
     the amount of my new  scheduled  payment  beginning on the first  scheduled
     payment date after the Change Date until the amount of my scheduled payment
     changes again.

     (F)Notice of Changes
     At least 25 days,  but no more than 120 days,  before the effective date of
     any payment change,  the Note Holder will deliver or mail to me a notice of
     any changes in my interest rate and the amount of my scheduled payment. The
     notice will include information  required by law to be given to me and also
     the title and  telephone  number of a person who will answer any question I
     may have regarding the notice.

5. BORROWER'S RIGHT TO PREPAY
     I have the right to make  payments of principal at any time before they are
due.  A payment  of  principal  only is known as a  "prepayment."  When I make a
prepayment,  I will tell the Note  Holder in  writing  that I am doing so. 
     I may make a full  prepayment  or partial  prepayments  without  paying any
prepayment  charge. The Note Holder will use all of my prepayments to reduce the
principal that I owe under this Note. If I make a partial prepayment, there will
be no changes in the due dates of my scheduled  payments  unless the Note Holder
agrees in writing to those changes.  My partial prepayment may reduce the amount
of my  scheduled  payments  after the first  Change  Date  following  my partial
prepayment. However, any reduction due to my partial prepayment may be offset by
an interest rate increase.

6. LOAN CHARGES
     If a law,  which  applies to this loan and which sets maximum loan charges,
is finally  interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges  collected or
to be collected in connection with this loan exceed the permitted limits,  then:
(i) any such loan charge shall be reduced by the amount  necessary to reduce the
charge to the permitted limit; and (ii) any sums already collected from me which
exceeded  permitted limits will be refunded to me. The Note Holder may choose to
make this refund by reducing the  principal I owe under this Note or by making a
direct  payment to me. If a refund  reduces  principal,  the  reduction  will be
treated as a partial prepayment.

7. BORROWER'S FAILURE TO PAY AS REQUIRED

     (A)Late Charges for Overdue Payments
     If the Note  Holder  has not  received  the full  amount  of any  scheduled
     payment by the end of 10 calendar days after the date it is due, I will pay
     a late charge to the Note  Holder. 
     The amount of the charge will by 5.000% of my overdue  payment of principal
     and  interest  but not more than U.S.$  5.00. 
     I will pay this late charge promptly but only once on each payment.

     (B) Set-Off
     I agree that the Note Holder may  set-off any amount due and payable  under
     this Note  against any right I have to receive  money from the Note Holder.
     An amount due and  payable  under this Note is any  portion of a  scheduled
     payment  not paid on or before  its due  date,  even if the due date of the
     Note has not been  accelerated. 
     My right to receive  moneyfrom the Note Holder  includes any deposit accout
     balance I have with the Note Holder  (including  savings,  checking and NOW
     accounts),  any time deposit (including certificates of deposit), any money
     owed to me on an item  presented to the Note Holder or in the Note Holder's
     possession  for  collection or exchange,  and any  repurchase  agreement or
     other non-deposit obligation.
     If my right to receive money from the Note Holder is also

<PAGE>

     owned by someone  who has not agreed to pay this  Note,  the Note  Holder's
     right of set-off  will apply to my  interest in the  obligation  and to any
     other amounts that I could withdraw on my sole request or endorsement.  The
     Note  Holder's  right of  set-off  does not  apply to an  account  or other
     obligation where my rights are only as a fiduciary.  It also does not apply
     to any IRA  account  or other  tax-deferred  retirement  account.  The Note
     Holder will not be liable for the  dishonor of any check when the  dishonor
     occurs  because  the  Note  Holder  set-off  this  debt  against  any of my
     accounts.  I agree to hold the Note Holder harmless from any claims arising
     as a result of the evercise of the right of set-off.

     (C)Default
     If I do not pay the full amount of each scheduled payment on the date it is
     due, I will be in default.
 
     (D)Notice of Default
     If I am in default, the Note Holder may send me a written notice telling me
     that if I do not pay the overdue  amount by a certain date, the Note Holder
     may require me to pay  immediately  the full amount of principal  which has
     not been paid and all the  interest  that I owe on that  amount.  That date
     must be at least 30 days after the date on which the notice is delivered or
     mailed to me.

     (E)No Waiver By Note Holder
     Even if, at a time when I am in  default,  the Note Holder does not require
     me to pay  immediately in full or does not exercise the right of set-off as
     described above, the Note Holder will still have the right to do so if I am
     in default at a later time.

     (F)Payment of Note Holder's Costs and Expenses
     If the Note Holder has required me to pay  immediately in full as described
     above, the Note Holder will have the right to be paid back by me for all of
     its costs and expenses in enforcing  this Note to the extent not prohibited
     by applicable law.

8. GIVING OF NOTICES
     Unless applicable law requires a different method,  any notice that must be
given to me under this Note will be given by  delivering  it or by mailing it by
first class mail to me at the Property  Address above or at a different  address
if I give the Note Holder a notice of my different address.
     Any notice  that must be given to the Note  Holder  under this Note will be
given by mailing it by first class mail to the Note Holder at the address stated
in Section  3(B) above or at a different  address if I am given a notice of that
different address.

9. OBLIGATIONS OF PERSONS UNDER THIS NOTE
     If more  than one  person  signs  this  Note,  each  person  is  fully  and
personally  obligated to keep all of the promises  made in this Note,  including
the promise to pay the full amount owed.  Any person who is a guarantor,  surety
or endorser of this Note is also  obligated to do these  things.  Any person who
takes over these obligations,  including the obligations of a guarantor,  surety
or endorser of this Note, is also  obligated to keep all of the promises made in
this Note.  The Note Holder may enforce its rights  under this Note against each
person individually or against all of us together. This means that any one of us
may be required to pay all of the amounts owed under this Note.

10. WAIVERS
     I and any other person who has obligations under this Note waive the rights
of presentment and notice of dishonor.  "Presentment" means the right to require
the Note Holder to demand payment of amounts due. "Notice of Dishonor" means the
right to require the Note Holder to give notice to other  persons  that  amounts
due have not been paid.

11. SECURED NOTE
     In addition to the protections  given to the Note Holder under this Note, a
Mortgage, Deed of Trust or Security Deed (the "Security Instrument"),  dated the
same date as the Note, protects the Note Holder from possible losses which might
result if I do not keep the promises  which I make in this Note.  That  Security
Instrument  describes  how and under what  conditions  I may be required to make
immediate  payment in full of all  amounts I owe under this Note.  Some of those
conditions  are  described as follows:
     Transfer of the  Property or a Beneficial  Interest in Borrower. 
     If all or any  part  of the  Property  or any  interest  in it is  sold  or
transferred (or if a beneficial  interest in Borrower is sold or transferred and
Borrower is not a natural person) without Lender's prior written consent, Lender
may, at its option,  require  immediate  payment in full of all sums  secured by
this Security Instrument.  However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender
if  exercise  is  prohibited  by  federal  law as of the  date  of the  Security
Instrument.
     If Lender  exercises  this  option,  Lender shall give  borrower  notice of
acceleration.  This notice shall  provide a period of not less than 30 days from
the date the notice is  delivered or mailed  within  which  Borrower mus pay all
sums secured by this Security  Instrument.  If Borrower  fails to pay these sums
prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any remedies permitted
by this Security Instrument without further notice or demand on Borrower.
