The Note and the Warrant is being sold to the Purchaser hereunder, together with an aggregate of: (i) up to $15,000,000 principal amount of Notes identical to the Note (collectively, with the Purchaser’s Note, hereinafter referred to as the “10% Notes” or “Notes”), and (ii) warrants, identical to the Warrant, entitling all holders (including the Purchaser) to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at the Exercise Price (collectively, with the Purchaser’s Warrant, the “Warrants”), that are being offered and sold by the Company to other investors (collectively, with the Purchaser, the “Purchasers”).

The Notes:

(d)

be secured by a lien and security interest (the “Lien”) on the assets of the Internet Billing Company LLC (“iBill”) subsidiary of the Company, as set forth in the Security Agreement. The Lien securing the Notes shall be expressly (i) subject and subordinate to the first priority Lien on the assets of iBill now existing or hereafter granted to any person, firm or corporation (the “Senior Lender”) providing up to $10.0 million of working capital financing to iBill (the “iBill Senior Financing”), and (ii) subject and subordinate to the second priority Lien granted to the holders of up to $3.45 million of 10% senior secured Series F convertible redeemable preferred stock of the Company that may be issued on or before September 15, 2004 and (unless converted) are subject to mandatory redemption on September 15, 2009 (the “Series F Senior Preferred Stock”); and

(e)

anticipated that (subject to the above adjustment) 73.41% of the iBill members interest and 290,351 shares of GMI Stock will initially be pledged to the Purchasers of Notes, and 26.59% of the iBill members interest and an aggregate of 105,168 shares of GMI Stock will be pledged to the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock of the Company; and

(f)

be substantially in the form attached hereto at Exhibit A and made a part hereof.

(g)

Notwithstanding the foregoing $3.00 per share Floor Price, described in Paragraph 1.A.(c) above, in the event that 50% of the average closing price of Company Common Stock, as traded on the AMEX or another National Securities Exchange, for the five trading days immediately prior to the Conversion Date, shall be less than the $3.00 Floor Price on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that notice of conversion is given to the Company by the Purchaser (the “Conversion Notice”), then, and in such event, the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from the “Escrowed Shares,” hereinafter defined, that number of additional shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Adjustment Shares”) as shall represent, together with the number of Note Conversion Shares issued at the Conversion Price then in effect, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issuable (a) based upon the Conversion Price then in effect, and (b) assuming that the Floor Price had been reduced to $1.00 per share (the “Assumed Floor Price”).

A maximum of up to 39,916,666 Adjustment Shares of the Company are subject to potential issuance to (i) up to a maximum of 25,000,000 of such Adjustment Shares, to the Purchaser and other Purchasers of up to a maximum of $15,000,000 of 10% Notes (ii) up to a maximum of 5,833,333 of such Adjustment Shares to the holders of $3,500,000 stated value of Series E convertible preferred stock hereinafter described (the “Series E Preferred Stock”), and (iii) up to a maximum of 9,083,333 of such Adjustment Shares to the holders of $5,450,000 stated value of Series F Senior Preferred Stock. Such maximum number of Adjustment Shares shall be subject to adjustment in the event that the Assumed Floor Price is lowered pursuant to the terms of the 10% Notes.

For the avoidance of doubt, if for example, the Purchaser sends a Conversion Notice to convert $1,000,000 of its Note and the Conversion Price (calculated based upon 50% of the average closing price of Company, as traded on the AMEX or another National Securities Exchange, for the five trading days immediately prior to the Conversion Date) shall be $1.00 per share, notwithstanding the $3.00 Floor Price set forth above and in the Note, the Purchaser would be entitled to receive for no additional consideration, out of the Escrowed Shares described below, an additional 666,667 shares of Common Stock. In such example, however, based on the $0.50 per share Assumed Floor Price, in no event would the Company be required to issue more than 1,666,667 Adjustment Shares, even if the Conversion Price then in effect was less than $0.50.

(h)

To avoid further dilution to the Company if Adjustment Shares become issuable to holders of the Series F Senior Preferred Stock, 10% Notes and Series E Preferred Stock, GMI Investment Partners, a principal stockholder of the Company, and their affiliates described in Section 1B below and the Company, have entered into an

escrow agreement with legal counsel to the Company and legal counsel to the holders of each of the 10% Notes, Series F Senior Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the escrow agreement (the “Series G Preferred Stock Escrow Agreement”), an aggregate of 29,929 shares of the Company’s “Series G Preferred Stock” (described below) that are automatically convertible into an aggregate of 39,916,666 shares of Common Stock of the Company by not later than December 31, 2004, are being placed in escrow (the “Escrowed Shares”). Such Escrowed Shares includes shares of Series G Preferred Stock convertible into a maximum of 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock being held for the benefit of the Purchaser and all other Purchasers of Notes. In the event that the Conversion Price shall be less than $3.00 per share on any Conversion Date, within three (3) Business Days after a Conversion Notice shall be delivered to counsel to the Company and to the Purchaser setting forth the calculation of the appropriate number of Escrowed Shares to be delivered to the Purchaser as Adjustment Shares, the Escrow Agents shall cause certificates evidencing such Adjustment Shares (up to the maximum 25,000,000 Adjustment Shares available to Purchaser and all other Purchasers of 10% Notes) to be delivered to the Purchasers. The Purchaser hereby agrees to the terms set forth in the Series G Preferred Stock Escrow Agreement, including the appointment of Granite Financial Partners LLC, as a Series G Preferred Stock Escrow Agent. Similar escrow arrangements are also available with counsel to the holders of Series F Senior Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock. Any Escrowed Shares no longer subject to issuance as Adjustment Shares or otherwise remaining in escrow following conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding 10% Notes, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Senior Preferred Stock, shall be promptly returned to GMI Partners or its Affiliates.

(i)

The Note Conversion Shares, any Adjustment Shares that the Purchaser may acquire at any time, and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Note Warrant Shares”), are subject to limitation, so that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of which such Purchaser and all persons affiliated with such Purchaser have beneficial ownership (calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) does not at any time exceed 9.99% of the Company's then outstanding Common Stock.

In August 2004, the Company announced its consummation of the acquisition of Media Billing Company, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary Internet Billing Company LLC (“iBill”), pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement, dated July 22, 2004, as amended (the “iBill Purchase Agreement”). On September 20, 2004, the Company received a notice from the AMEX of its intention to de-list the Company’s Common Stock from trading on the AMEX, pending a hearing requested by the Company. The delisting notice stated, among other things, that the Company failed to furnish certain necessary information to the AMEX concerning iBill and that the iBill Acquisition raised certain public interest concerns. On September 23, 2004, the Company agreed to rescind the closing of the iBill Acquisition. However, the iBill Purchase Agreement continues to remain in full force and effect. As a result of its agreement to rescind the closing of the iBill Acquisition, pending the resolution of all listing eligibility issues and AMEX approvals, the staff of the AMEX agreed to withdraw its notice of intent to de-list the Company’s securities.

The Company intends to furnish the information requested by the AMEX on a timely basis and is hopeful that the staff of the AMEX will, upon receipt and review of such information, provide all necessary approvals for the iBill Acquisition. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to satisfactorily resolve all listing issues or that it will receive all such AMEX approvals associated with the iBill transaction. However, if for any reason, AMEX approval has not been obtained by January 21, 2005, the Company will nevertheless close the iBill Acquisition, withdraw from the AMEX and seek to re-list its Common Stock on another National Securities Exchange.

Following receipt of the AMEX notice of delisting, on September 23, 2004, each of the Company, Penthouse and GMI Investment Partners entered into an agreement (the “September 23^rd Agreement”) that provides that the iBill Acquisition will be consummated, all shares of the Company Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock issuable to Penthouse upon consummation of the iBill Acquisition will be issued, and all of the Series D Preferred Stock will be converted into approximately 81.4 million shares of Company Common Stock, upon the earlier to occur of (i) AMEX Approval of the iBill Acquisition, or (ii) January 21, 2005. The Company has delivered to legal counsel to Penthouse, for filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on the earlier of AMEX Approval or January 21, 2005, a duly executed undated certificate of designation for the Series D Preferred Stock, containing no conditions to conversion of such securities into Common Stock.

In addition, pursuant to the September 23^rd Agreement, the Company has also delivered to legal counsel to Penthouse, for delivery to the 10% Note holders or filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, as applicable, on the earlier of Stockholder Approval or December 31, 2004 (i) duly executed 10% Notes, and (ii) duly executed undated certificates of designation for each of the Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Senior Preferred Stock and the Series G Preferred Stock, which Notes and Certificates contain no conditions to conversion of any of such securities into Company Common Stock.
