NOTE A-BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-QSB and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month and six
month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2000. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31,
1999.

NOTE B-PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

         The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Dynamic Health Products, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Innovative

Inc., Incredible Products of Florida, Inc., Dynamic Life, Inc., J.Labs, Inc.,
and Herbal Health Products, Inc. (collectively the "Company"). All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE C-RELATED PARTY OBLIGATIONS

         In August and September 1999, the Company issued promissory notes
payable to the Chairman of the Board of the Company totaling $156,500. The notes
bear interest at 10% per annum, and are payable on demand.

NOTE D-LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

         On September 13, 1999, the Company established a loan with GE Capital
Small Business Finance Corporation. The principal amount of the note is
$880,000. The note bears interest at the lowest Prime Rate as published in the
Wall Street Journal (based on the prime rate in effect on the first business day
of the month in which a change occurs) plus 2.25% per annum.

         The term of the note is 25 years and one month from the date of the
note, payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest. The note
is secured by a mortgage on the Company's land and building in Largo, Florida.
The note is also secured by personal guarantee from the Company's Chairman of
the Board. Proceeds from the note were used to satisfy all outstanding mortgages
on the property and for payment of loan costs associated with the note.

NOTE E-STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income
(loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share gives
effect to convertible preferred shares which are considered to be dilutive
common stock equivalents.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

         The Company derives its revenues from developing, manufacturing and
wholesaling a wide variety of non-prescription nutritional supplements, and
health and beauty care products, and distributing and wholesaling prescription
pharmaceuticals. Revenues are billed and recognized as product is produced and
shipped, net of discounts, allowances, returns and credits.

         Cost of goods sold is comprised of direct personnel compensation,
statutory and other benefits associated with such personnel and other direct
manufacturing and material product costs. Cost of goods sold also includes
indirect costs relating to labor to support the warehousing of production and
manufacturing overhead. Research and development expenses are charged against
cost of goods sold as incurred, and are not material to the Company's
operations. Selling, general and administrative costs include administrative,
sales and marketing and other indirect operating costs. Interest and other
income (expense) consists primarily of interest expense associated with
borrowings to finance capital equipment expenditures and other working capital
needs.

         The Company acquired Becan Distributors, Inc. on June 26, 1998. The
merger was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control and
treated as if a "pooling of interests". The financial statements have been
retroactively restated, for all periods presented, to include the results of
operations for Becan.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         REVENUES. Total revenues increased $7,830,807, or 96.5%, to $15,946,015

months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period. The
gross margin from distribution increased to 4.6% and 4.3% for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1999, from 3.8% and 4.0% in the corresponding
periods. Manufacturing gross profit increased $109,908, or 69.3%, to $268,599
and $78,851, or 16.6%, to $555,362 respectively, for the three months and six
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to the corresponding period. The
gross margin from manufacturing increased to 23.2% for the three months ended
September 30, 1999, from 13.9% in the corresponding period. For the six months
ended September 30, 1999, the gross margin from manufacturing decreased to
22.5%, from 23.1% in the corresponding period. The variation in gross margins
for the periods presented was primarily attributable to changes in the mix of
sales.

         SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses consist primarily of advertising and promotional
expenses; personnel costs related to general management functions, finance,
accounting and information systems, payroll expenses and sales commissions;
professional fees related to legal, audit and tax matters; and depreciation and
amortization expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
$511,084, or 82.7%, to $1,128,989 and $1,175,607, or 127.2%, to $2,100,016
respectively, for the three months and six months ended September 30, 1999, as
compared to the corresponding period. The increase was primarily due to
additional advertising, promotional and payroll expenses to support increased
net sales and the Company's growth, as well as additional amortization of
goodwill and depreciation of fixed assets associated with acquisitions made
during fiscal 1999. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased from 7.6% for the three months ended September
30, 1998, to 7.1% for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and increased to
7.0% for the six months ended September 30, 1999, from 6.2% for the six months
ended September 30, 1998.

         INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE), NET. Interest expense, net of interest
income, increased $42,518 to $137,627 for the three months ended September 30,
1999, from $95,109 for the three months ended September 30, 1998. For the six
months ended September 30, 1999, interest expense, net of interest income
increased $140,419 to $262,888, from $122,469 in the corresponding period. The
increase was a result of greater borrowings to finance the purchase of
additional machinery and equipment, to make necessary plant modifications, and
for financing of additional working capital needs with the expansion of the
Company's operations.

         INCOME TAXES. The Company has no income tax provision for the periods
presented due to the utilization of net operating losses not previously
recognized. These net operating losses may be carried forward for up to 15
years. As such, the Company does not anticipate any liability for income taxes
for the six months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.

         Management believes that there was no material effect on operations or
the financial condition of the Company as a result of inflation for the six
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. Management also believes that its
business is not seasonal; however, significant promotional activities can have a
direct impact on sales volume in any given quarter.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company has financed its operations through available borrowings
under its credit line facilities, loans from within the Company, and the sale of
equity securities issued by the Company. The Company had a working capital
deficit of $189,964 at September 30, 1999, inclusive of current portion of
long-term obligations and credit facilities.

         Net cash provided by operating activities was $58,571 for the six
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to net cash used in operating
activities of ($1,342,249) for the six months ended September 30, 1998. Cash
provided by operating activities was attributable to an increase in accounts
payable $1,493,156, and increase in accrued expenses $402,217, partially offset
by an increase in accounts receivable ($639,939), as a result of increased sales
by the Company during such period, an increase in inventory ($716,925), and an
increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets ($194,583).

         Net cash used in investing activities was ($354,031), representing the
purchase of property and equipment, and plant modifications ($298,007), an
increase in intangible assets ($28,758), and an increase in of other assets
($27,266).

         Net cash used in financing activities was ($45,846), representing
repayments on lines of credit ($116,409), repayments of long-term obligations
($1,130,546), repayments of shareholder loans ($13,434), partially offset by
proceeds from issuance of long-term obligations $1,048,043, and proceeds from
issuance of shareholder loans $166,500.

         Management believes that cash expected to be generated from operations,
current cash reserves, and existing financial arrangements will be sufficient
for the Company to meet its capital expenditures and working capital needs for
its operations as presently conducted. The Company's future liquidity and cash
requirements will depend on a wide range of factors, including the level of
business in existing operations, expansion of facilities, expected results from
recent procedural changes in accounts receivable and inventory procurement, and
possible acquisitions. In particular, if cash flows from operations and
available credit facilities are not sufficient, it will be necessary for the
Company to seek additional financing. While there can be no assurance that such
financing would be available in amounts and on terms acceptable to the Company,
management believes that such financing would likely be available on acceptable
terms.

         In May 1999, the Company formed Dynamic Life, Inc., a Florida
Corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Dynamic Life, Inc. was
formed to be the successor to Incredible Products of Florida, Inc., a subsidiary
of the Company. Its business operations commenced on July 1, 1999, at which time
all of the former assets, liabilities and business operations of Incredible
Products of Florida, Inc. were transferred to Dynamic Life, Inc..

         On September 13, 1999, the Company established a loan with GE Capital
Small Business Finance Corporation. The principal amount of the note is
$880,000. The note bears interest at the lowest Prime Rate as published in the
Wall Street Journal (based on the prime rate in effect on the first business day
of the month in which a change occurs) plus 2.25% per annum.



                                     - 10 -

         The term of the note is 25 years and one month from the date of the
note, payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest. The note
is secured by a mortgage on the Company's land and building in Largo, Florida.
The note is also secured by personal guarantee from the Company's Chairman of
the Board. Proceeds from the note were used to satisfy all outstanding mortgages
on the property and for payment of loan costs associated with the note.

         In September 1999, Innovative Health Products, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, transferred its land and building in Largo, Florida
to the Company at net book value, which management believes approximated fair
market value on the date of transfer, based upon a recent independent appraisal
of the property. In conjunction with the transfer, the Company satisfied all
outstanding mortgages on the premises upon its refinancing through GE Capital
Small Business Finance Corporation. In addition, approximately $430,000 of
Innovative's obligations to the Company were extinguished, which represented the
difference between net book value and amounts outstanding under existing
mortgages prior to the transfer.

         On September 3, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously
agreed that it would be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders
to enter into an Agreement And Plan of Reorganization with Nutriceuticals.com
Corporation ("Nutriceuticals") to sell all of the shares of capital stock of
Becan Distributors, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to
Nutriceuticals, to further certain of its business objectives, including without
limitation, providing additional working capital to the Company.

         On September 8, 1999, the Company entered into such agreement, whereby
the Company agreed to exchange all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock
of Becanto Nutriceuticals for $2,000,000 in cash and 4,000,000 shares of voting
common stock, $.001 par value, of Nutriceuticals. Additional consideration of
2,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value, of Nutriceuticals, which
shares shall be placed in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement, and which
shares would be issuable at a future date to the Company upon the attainment by
Becan of certain projected revenues and gross margins for the fiscal years
ending March 31, 2000 and 2001. The number of shares of Nutriceuticals common
stock shall be reduced by 50% after the effective time of a one-for-two reverse
split of the common stock of Nutriceuticals. The closing is subject to the
success of a secondary public offering of Nutriceuticals common stock. The
number of shares of Nutriceuticals common stock to be issued by Nutriceuticals
in consideration of the shares of Becan common stock was determined based upon
the relative estimated value of each of the companies. In addition, on October
4, 1999, the Company entered into a Third Party Pledge Agreement with First
Community Bank of America, which provides a security interest and collateral, in
the form of the Company's Certificate of Deposit with First Community Bank of
America, in the amount of $500,000, as collateral for a Line of Credit Agreement
executed by and for the benefit of Nutriceuticals.

YEAR 2000 STATEMENT

         The Year 2000 issue encompasses the required recognition of computer
hardware and software systems and computer controlled devices, including
equipment, used in the Company's distribution and manufacturing operations to
properly acknowledge the change from Year 1999 to Year 2000. The failure of any
hardware and software systems or equipment to timely and accurately recognize
such change could result in partial or complete systems failure.



                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>

         In the normal course of business, the Company relies on products and
services from critical vendors, customers and other third parties whose computer
systems must also be Year 2000 compliant in order for the Company to realize the
uninterrupted flow of its business operations. The Company is actively taking
steps to ensure that its systems and equipment will be Year 2000 compliant,
including assessing the scope of work, prioritizing, certifying compliance, and
testing compliance.

         The Company has identified those systems and equipment in its
operations that are considered to be critical to the Company's day to day
operations. All of the Company's systems and equipment utilized in its
operations was tested for Year 2000 compliance during February and March 1999,
with approximately 95% of such systems and equipment being certified as Year
2000 compliant as of September 30, 1999. The Company is in the process of
obtaining written assurances from its third-party software providers that the
software used by the Company is Year 2000 compliant. In addition, the Company is
actively seeking assurances of Year 2000 compliance from each of its key
suppliers, customers and other third parties with whom the Company conducts
business. A lack of response or inadequate or inaccurate information from such
third parties could materially affect the Company's assessment for Year 2000
readiness. Until assessments are completed, the Company cannot predict whether
the failure of any such third party to be Year 2000 compliant will have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business.

         To date, the costs incurred by the Company to address Year 2000 issues
have been immaterial, and the Company expects that the costs to complete Year
2000 compliance certification, testing and verifications will also be
immaterial. Where appropriate, the Company will develop contingency plans in
areas it determines that Year 2000 readiness is insufficient. However, no
assurances can be given that the Company's Year 2000 efforts are appropriate,
adequate, or complete. In addition, the Company is unable to fully determine the
effect of a failure of its own systems or those of any third party with whom it
conducts business, but any significant failures could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.

     charges and sewer service charges levied against or on account of the
     Property, and shall pay when due all claims for work done on or for

     paragraph.

     RIGHT TO CONTEST. Grantor may withhold payment of any tax, assessment, or
     claim in connection with a good faith dispute over the obligation to pay,
     so long as Lender's interest in the Property is not jeopardized. If a lien
     arises or is filed as a result of nonpayment, Grantor shall within fifteen
     (15) days after the lien arises or, If a lien is filed, within fifteen (15)
     days after Grantor has notice of the filing, secure the discharge of the
     lien, or if requested by Lender, deposit with Lender cash or a sufficient
     corporate surety bond or other security satisfactory to Lender in an amount
     sufficient to discharge the lien plus any costs and reasonable attorneys'
     fees or other charges that could accrue as a result of a foreclosure or
     sale under the lien. In any contest, Grantor shall defend itself and Lender
     and shall satisfy any adverse judgment before enforcement against the
     Property. Grantor shall name Lender as an additional obligee under any
     surety bond furnished in the contest proceedings.

     EVIDENCE OF PAYMENT. Grantor shall upon demand furnish to Lender

     days before any work is commenced, any services are furnished, or any
     materials are supplied to the Property, if any mechanic's lien,
     materialmen's lien, or other lien could be asserted on account of the work,
     services, or materials. Grantor will upon request of Lender furnish to
     Lender advance assurances satisfactory to Lender that Grantor can and will
     pay the cost of such improvements.

PROPERTY DAMAGE INSURANCE. The following provisions relating to insuring the
     Property are a part of this Mortgage.

     MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE. Grantor shall procure and maintain policies of
     fire insurance with standard extended coverage endorsements on a
     replacement basis for the full insurable value covering all Improvements on
     the Real Property in an amount sufficient to avoid application of any
     coinsurance clause, and with a standard mortgagee clause in favor of
     Lender. Grantor shall also procure and maintain comprehensive general
     liability insurance in such coverage amounts as Lender may request with
     Lender being named as additional insureds in such liability insurance
     policies. Additionally, Grantor shall maintain such other insurance,
     including but not limited to hazard, business interruption and boiler
     insurance as Lender may require. Policies shall be written by such
     insurance companies and in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to
     Lender. Grantor shall deliver to Lender certificates of coverage from each
     insurer containing a stipulation that coverage will not be cancelled or
     diminished without a minimum of ten (10) days' prior written notice to
     Lender and not containing any disclaimer of the insurer's liability for
     failure to give such notice. Each insurance policy also shall include an
     endorsement providing that coverage In favor of Lender will not be impaired
     in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor or any other person.
     Should the Real Property at any time become located in an area designated
     by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special
     flood hazard area, Grantor agrees to obtain and maintain Federal Flood
     Insurance for the full unpaid principal balance of the loan and any prior
     liens on the property securing the loan, up to the maximum policy limits
     set under the National Flood Insurance Program, or as otherwise required by
     Lender, and to maintain such insurance for the term of the loan.

     APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of any loss
     or damage to the Property. Lender may make proof of loss if Grantor fails
     to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. Whether or not Lender's
     security is impaired, Lender may, at its election, apply the proceeds to
     the reduction of the Indebtedness, payment of any lien affecting the
     Property, or the restoration and repair of the Property. If Lender elects
     to apply the proceeds to restoration and repair, Grantor shall repair or
     replace the damaged or destroyed Improvements in a manner satisfactory to
     Lender. Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of such expenditure, pay or
     reimburse Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or
     restoration if Grantor is not in default under this Mortgage. Any proceeds
     which have not been disbursed within 180 days after their receipt and which
     Lender has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Property shall
     be used first to pay any amount owing to Lender under this Mortgage, then
     to pay accrued interest, and the remainder, if any, shall be applied to the
     principal balance of the Indebtedness. If Lender holds any proceeds after
     payment in full of the Indebtedness, such proceeds shall be paid to
     Grantor.

     UNEXPIRED INSURANCE AT SALE. Any unexpired insurance shall inure to the
     benefit of, and pass to, the purchaser of the Property covered by this
     Mortgage at any trustee's sale or other sale held under the provisions of
     this Mortgage, or at any foreclosure sale of such Property.

     GRANTOR'S REPORT ON INSURANCE. Upon request of Lender, however not more
     than once a year, Grantor shall furnish to Lender a report on each existing
     policy of insurance showing: (a) the name of the insurer; (b) the risks
     Insured; (c) the amount of the policy; (d) the property insured, the then
     current replacement value of such property, and the manner of determining
     that value; and (e) the expiration date of the policy. Grantor shall, upon
     request of Lender, have an independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender
     determine the cash value replacement cost of the Property.

EXPENDITURES BY LENDER. If Grantor fails to comply with any provision of this
Mortgage, or if any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially
affect Lender's interests in the Property, Lender on Grantor's behalf may, but
shall not be required to, take any action that Lender deems appropriate. Any
amount that Lender expends in so doing will bear interest at the rate provided
for in the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender to the date of
repayment by Grantor. All such expenses, at Lender's option, will (a) be payable
on demand, (b) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and
be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (i) the
term of any applicable insurance policy or (ii) the remaining term of the Note,
or (c) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the
Note's maturity. This Mortgage also will secure payment of these amounts. The
rights provided for in this paragraph shall be in addition to any other rights
or any remedies to which Lender may be entitled on account of the default. Any
such action by Lender shall not be construed as curing the default so as to bar
Lender

     residence, Grantor shall furnish to Lender, upon request, a certified
     statement of net operating income received from the Property during
     Grantor's previous fiscal year in such form and detail as Lender shall
     require. "Net operating income" shall mean all cash receipts from the
     Property less all cash expenditures made in connection with the operation
     of the Property.

     APPLICABLE LAW. THE LOAN SECURED BY THIS LIEN WAS MADE UNDER A UNITED
     STATES SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (SBA) NATIONWIDE PROGRAM WHICH USES
     TAX DOLLARS TO ASSIST SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS. IF THE UNITED STATES IS
     SEEKING TO ENFORCE THIS DOCUMENT, THEN UNDER SBA REGULATIONS: (A) WHEN SBA
     IS THE HOLDER OF THE NOTE, THIS DOCUMENT AND ALL DOCUMENTS EVIDENCING OR
     SECURING THIS LOAN WILL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL LAW. (B)
     LENDER OR SBA MAY USE LOCAL OR STATE PROCEDURES FOR PURPOSES SUCH AS FILING
     PAPERS, RECORDING DOCUMENTS, GIVING NOTICE, FORECLOSING LIENS, AND OTHER
     PURPOSES. BY USING THESE PROCEDURES, SBA DOES NOT WAIVE ANY FEDERAL
     IMMUNITY FROM LOCAL OR STATE CONTROL, PENALTY, TAX OR LIABILITY. NO
     BORROWER OR GUARANTOR MAY CLAIM OR ASSERT AGAINST SBA ANY LOCAL OR STATE
     LAW TO DENY ANY OBLIGATION OF BORROWER, OR DEFEAT ANY CLAIM OF SBA WITH

     NOT ENFORCEABLE WHEN SBA IS THE HOLDER OF THE NOTE SECURED BY THIS
     INSTRUMENT.

     CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Mortgage are for convenience
     purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
     of this Mortgage.

     MERGER. There shall be no merger of the interest or estate created by this
     Mortgage with any other interest or estate in the Property at any time held
     by or for the benefit of Lender in any capacity, without the written
     consent of Lender.

     MULTIPLE PARTIES; CORPORATE AUTHORITY. All obligations of Grantor under
     this Mortgage shall be joint and several, and all references to Grantor
     shall mean each and every Grantor. This means that each of the persons
     signing below is responsible for all obligations in this Mortgage.

     SEVERABILITY. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
     this Mortgage to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or
     circumstance, such finding shall not, render that provision invalid or
     unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any
     such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the
     limits of enforceability or validity: however, if the offending provision
     cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of
     this Mortgage in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.

     SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the limitations stated in this Mortgage
     on transfer of Grantor's interest, this Mortgage shall be binding upon and
     inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns. If
     ownership of the Property becomes vested in a person other than Grantor,
     Lender, without notice to Grantor, may deal with Grantor's successors with
     reference to this Mortgage and the Indebtedness by way of forbearance or
     extension without releasing Grantor from the obligations of this Mortgage
     or liability under the Indebtedness.

     TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
     Mortgage.

     WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
     under this Mortgage (or under the Related Documents) unless such waiver is
     in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender
     in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
     other right. A waiver by any party of a provision of this Mortgage shall
     not constitute a waiver of or prejudice the party's right otherwise to
     demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision. No
     prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and
     Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or any of
     Grantor's obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever consent by
     Lender is required in this Mortgage, the granting of such consent by Lender
     in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
     instances where such consent is required.

09-13-1999                  PROMISSORY NOTE                               PAGE 2
LOAN NO 3109254008            (CONTINUED)
================================================================================
    This is a variable interest rate note, with an initial interest rate of
    10.25%. Interest shall accrue on the principal balance of the Note at a
    fluctuation rate based on the "Prime Rate" plus 2.25%. The "Prime Rate"
    shall be defined as the lowest prime lending rate as published in the Wall
    Street Journal. The initial interest rate is based on the "Prime Rate" of
    8.00%, the "Prime Rate" in effect on the date SBA received the loan
    application. The rate shall increase or decrease monthly on the first day of
    each month during the term of the Note.

    The amount that the interest on this Note may vary is limited by a ceiling
    and floor: (1) The maximum interest rate (ceiling) will not exceed 3% above
    the initial interest rate. (2) the minimum interest rate (floor) will not be
    less than 3% below the initial interest rate.

    Holder shall give written notice to the Undersigned of each increase or
    decrease in the interest rate within thirty (30) days after the effective
    date of each rate adjustment; however, the fluctuation of the interest rate
    is not contingent on whether the notice is given.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing provision for changes in the rate of interest,
    at no time shall the interest rate exceed the maximum rate permitted by
    applicable law. Upon any changes in the interest rate, the above monthly
    principal and interest payments shall be adjusted to amortize the remaining
    loan balance in equal monthly payments at principal and interest over the
    remaining term of the loan.

    Interest on this note is computed on a 30/360 simple interest basis; that
    is, with the exception of odd days in the first payment period, monthly
    interest is calculated by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate
    over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance,
    multiplied by a month of 30 days. Interest for the odd days is calculated on
    the basis of the actual days to the next full month and a 360-day year.

    It SBA purchases the guaranteed portion of the unpaid principal balance, the
    interest rate becomes fixed at the rate in effect at the time of the
    earliest uncured payment default. If there is no uncured payment default,
    the rate becomes fixed at the rate in effect at the time of purchase.

 4. RIGHT TO PREPAY:

    Borrower may prepay this Note. Borrower may prepay 20 percent or less of the
    unpaid principal balance at any time without notice. If Borrower prepays
    more than 20 percent and the Loan has been sold on the secondary market,
    Borrower must:

      A. Give Lender written notice;
      B. Pay all accrued interest; and
      C. If the prepayment is received less than 21 days from the date Lender
         receives the notice, pay an amount equal to 21 days' interest from the
         date Lender receives the notice, less any interest accrued during the
         21 days and paid under subparagraph B.

    If Borrower does not prepay within 60 days from the date Lender receives the
    notice, Borrower must give Lender a new notice.

5.  DEFAULT:

    Borrower is in default under this Note if Borrower does not make a payment
    when due under this Note, or if Borrower or Operating Company:

      A. Fails to do anything required by this Note and other Loan Documents;
      B. Defaults on any other loan with Lender;
      C. Does not preserve, or account to Lender's satisfaction for, any of the

      H. Becomes the subject of a proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency

interest or other collateral securing payment of any or all of the Obligations,
or to any other interest, properties, liens, rights or remedies whatsoever.
Pledgor agrees to defer exercising, and hereby waives, any and all rights which
Pledgor might otherwise have to obtain reimbursement or payment from Debtor or
other persons obligated with respect to any or all of the Obligations or out of
the property of Debtor or of such other persons (whether such rights to obtain

8. MISCELLANEOUS. Any disposition of the Collateral in the manner provided in
Section 5 shall be deemed commercially reasonable. This Agreement can be waived,
modified, amended, terminated or discharged, and the Security Interest can be
released, only explicitly in a writing signed by Secured Party. A waiver signed
by Secured Party shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose given. Mere delay or failure to act shall not preclude the
exercise or enforcement of any Secured Party's rights or remedies. All rights
and remedies of Secured Party shall be cumulative and may be exercised
singularly or concurrently, at Secured Party's option, and the exercise or
enforcement of any one such right or remedy shall neither be a condition to nor
bar the exercise or enforcement of any other. All notices to be given to Pledgor
shall be deemed sufficiently given if delievered or mailed by registered or
certified mail, postage prepaid, to Pledgor at its address set forth above or at
the most recent address shown on Secured Party's records. Secured Party's duty
of care with respect to Collateral in its possession (as imposed by law) shall
be deemed fulfilled if Secured Party exercises reasonable care in physically
safekeeping such Collateral or, in the case of Collateral in the custody or
possession of a bailee or other third person exercises reasonable care in the
selection of the bailee or other third person, and Secured Party need not
otherwise preserve, protect, insure or care for any Collateral. Secured Party
shall not be obligated to preserve any rights Pledgor may have against prior
parties, to exercise at all or in any particular manner any voting rights which
may be available with respect to any Collateral, to realize on the Collateral at
all or in any particular manner or order, or to apply any cash proceeds of
Collateral in any particular order of application. Pledgor will reimburse
Secured Party for all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal
expenses) incurred by Secured Party in the protection, defense or enforcement of
the Security Interest, including expenses incurred in any litigation or
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of Pledgor and Secured Party and their respective heirs,
representatives, successors and assigns and shall take effect when signed by
Pledgor and delivered to Secured Party. Except to the extent otherwise required
by law, this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state in which it is
executed and, unless the context otherwise requires, all terms used herein which
are defined in Articles 1 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect in
said state, shall have the meanings therein stated. If any provision or
application of this Agreement is held unlawful or unenforceable in any respect,
such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect other provisions or
applications which can be given effect, and this Agreement shall be construed as
if the unlawful or unenforceable provision or application had never been
contained herein or prescribed hereby. All representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the creation and payment of the Obligations.
If this Agreement is signed by more than one person as Pledgor, the term
"Pledgor" shall refer to each of them separately and to both or all of them
jointly; all such person shall be bound both severally and jointly with the
other(s); and all property described in Section 1 shall be included as part of
the Collateral, whether it is owned jointly by both or all Pledgors or is owned
in whole or in part by one (or more) of them.


                                                                   (page 2 of 2)

         include loans or credit purchases, made by or transferred to you, as
         well as debts arising from any other relationship such as check
         overdrafts, forgeries, or returned deposits. These also include debts
         arising from any capacity (maker, co-maker, endorser, surety,
         guarantor).) If more than one person or entity is listed, then all
         joint and separate debts of all those listed are secured.

     [X] the following described debt(s), plus all extensions, renewals,
         modifications and substitutions:  NONE OF EVEN DATE
         I/A/O $100,000.00


FIRST COMMUNITY BANK OF AMERICA
6100 4TH STREET NORTH
ST. PETERSBURG, FL 33703

Secured party's name and address: "You" means the secured party named above,
     your successors and assigns.

Additional terms: The following terms are also part of this agreement:
(1)  This agreement will last until you release it in writing, and you are not
     required to release it until the secured debts are paid in full.
(2)  While this agreement is in effect, neither I nor anyone else (except you,
     the secured party) can withdraw all or any part of the collateral.
(3)  No joint owner, beneficiary, surviving spouse or representative of my
     estate gets any rights in the collateral in the even of my death or
     incapacity until the secured debts are paid in full.
(4)  You have the right to withdraw all or any part of the collateral and apply
     the withdrawal toward the payment of the secured debt(s), even if the
     withdrawal causes a penalty. If a secured debt is in default you can
     exercise this right without any notice to me or my consent (unless such
     notice or consent is required by law and cannot be waived). You have the
     right to sign my name (or sign your name as my attorney in fact) to
     exercise the rights given to you in this agreement.
(5)  I represent and promise that no other person or entity has any rights in
     the collateral that have priority over those I am giving you here and that
     no part of the collateral is exempt or protected by law from this
     agreement.
(6)  The rights and remedies I am giving you here are in addition to any stated
     in any other agreements. If there is more than one debt secured, more than
     one type of collateral (including collateral outside of the agreement) or
     more than one debtor liable, it is entirely in your discretion as to the
     order and timing of remedies you select.
(7)  I neither assume nor am excused from personal liability for any of the
     secured debts merely by making this agreement; my personal liability will
     be determined by referring to other documents. I do assume personal
     liability for the warranties and representations made in this agreement.
(8)  A debt secured by this agreement (whether specifically listed or not)
     includes all sums that could possibly be due under the debt.
(9)  I specifically request and direct the depository to honor and accept this
     agreement and its terms.
