Principal Amount: $150,000.00 Date of Note: January 4, 2007
PROMISE TO PAY. Gingerbread Man, Inc ( "Borrower ") promises to pay to COMMERCE BANK /HARRISBURG N.A. ( "Lender "), or order, in lawful
money of the United States of America, the principal amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand & 001100 Dollars ($150,000.00), together with
interest on the unpaid principal balance from January 4, 2007, until paid in full.
PAYMENT. Subject to any payment changes resulting from changes in the Index, Borrower will pay this loan in accordance with the following
payment schedule: 60 monthly consecutive principal and interest payments in the initial amount of $1,793.66 each, beginning February 4,
2007, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate of 7.560% per annum; 59 monthly consecutive principal and
interest payments in the initial amount of $1,867.35 each, beginning February 4, 2012, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances
at an interest rate based on the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal. If a range of rates is published,
the highest will be used. (currently 8.250 %), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 9.250 %; and one
principal and interest payment of $1,867.01 on January 4, 2017, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate
based on the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal. If a range of rates is published, the highest will be
used. (currently 8.250 %), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 9.250 %. This estimated final payment
is based on the assumption that all payments will be made exactly as scheduled and that the Index does not change; the actual final payment
will be for all principal and accrued interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts under this Note. Unless otherwise agreed or
required by applicable law, .payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any unpaid collection costs;
and then to any late charges.. The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual
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 above 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 independent index
which is the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal. If a range of rates is published, the highest will be
used. (the "Index "). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the
term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after notifying Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon
Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each daily. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans
based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 8.250% per annum. The interest rate or rates to be applied to the unpaid principal balance
during this Note will be the rate or rates set forth herein in the "Payment" section. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, after the
j first payment stream, the interest rate for each subsequent payment stream will be effective as of the last payment date of the just- ending
payment stream. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable
law. Whenever increases occur in the interest rate, Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (A) increase Borrower's
payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final maturity date, (B) increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest,
(C) increase the number of Borrower's payments, and (D) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final
payment.
PREPAYMENT PENALTY. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and
will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. Upon
prepayment of this Note, Lender is entitled to the following prepayment penalty: Prepayment of any amount of the principal sum shall be
subject to a penalty charge of 5% during the first year of amortization and declining 1% per year thereafter to par. Except for the foregoing,
Borrower may pay all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing,
relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the
principal balance due and may result in Borrower's making fewer payments. 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: COMMERCE
BANK /HARRISBURG N.A., LOAN SERVICING, PO BOX 4999 HARRISBURG, PA 17111-0999.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the regularly scheduled payment.
INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, the interest rate on this Note shall be increased by
adding a 2.000 percentage point margin ( "Default Rate Margin "1. The Default Rate Margin shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate
change that would have applied had there been no default. After maturity, or after this Note would have matured had there been no default, the
Default Rate Margin will continue to apply to the final interest rate described in this Note. If judgment is entered in connection with this Note,
interest will continue to accrue after the date of judgment at the rate in effect at the time judgment is entered. However, in no event will the
interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate limitations under applicable law.

HARRISBURG, PA 17111
(717) 975 -5630
Principal Amount: $225,000.00 Date of Agreement: June 21, 2007
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS. To increase the loan amount from $150,000.00 to $225,000.00 and add Phelaro, Inc. ( "Guarantor") as
a Corporate Guarantor. Concurrent with the signing of this Agreement, the Guarantor shall execute a Guaranty Agreement and related
documents, as required by Bank.
PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in accordance with the following payment schedule: 55 monthly consecutive principal and interest
payments in the initial amount of $2,769.26_ each, beginning July 4, 2007, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an
interest rate of 7.560% per annum; 59 monthly consecutive principal and interest payments in the initial amount of $2,883.01 each, beginning
February 4, 2012, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances at an interest rate based on the Prime Rate as published in the
Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal (currently 8.250 %), plus a margin of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate
of 9.250 %; and one principal and interest payment of $2,882.96 on January 4, 2017, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances
at an interest rate based on the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate - Section -of the -Wall Street - Journal (currently 8.250 %), plus a margin
of 1.000 percentage points, resulting in an initial interest rate of 9.250 %. This estimated final payment is based on the assumption that all
payments will be made exactly as scheduled and that the Index does not change; the actual final payment will be for all principal and accrued
interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts on this loan.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this loan is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index
which is the Prime Rate as published in the Money Rate Section of the Wall Street Journal (the "Index "). The Index is not necessarily the lowest
rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after
notifying Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more
often than each daily. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 8.250% per
annum. The interest rate or rates to be applied to the unpaid principal balance during this loan will be the rate or rates set forth herein in the
"Payment" section. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, after the first payment stream, the interest rate for each
subsequent payment stream will be effective as of the last payment date of the just- ending payment stream. NOTICE: Under no circumstances
will the interest rate on this loan be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Whenever increases occur in the interest rate,
Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (A) increase Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its
original final maturity date, IB) increase Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower's payments,
and (D) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final payment.
CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of the original obligation or obligations, including all
agreements evidenced or securing the obligation(s), remain unchanged and in full force and effect. Consent by Lender to this Agreement does
not waive Lender's right to strict performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any future change in terms. Nothing
in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction of the obligation(s). It is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties all makers and
endorsers of the original obligation(s), including accommodation parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or
endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this Agreement. If any person who signed the original obligation
does not sign this Agreement below, then all persons signing below acknowledge that this Agreement is given conditionally, based on the
representation to Lender that the non - signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or otherwise will not be released
by it. This waiver applies not only to any initial extension, modification or release, but also to all such subsequent actions.
THIS AGREEMENT IS GIVEN UNDER SEAL AND IT IS INTENDED THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS AND SHALL CONSTITUTE AND HAVE THE
EFFECT OF A SEALED INSTRUMENT ACCORDING TO LAW.
PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE PROVISIONS. BORROWER AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT.
