FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Millennium Biotechnologies Group, Inc., (“Debtor”) hereby promises to pay to the order of ________________ (Holder), at _______________________________________________ (or such other place as Holder may direct from time to time), in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) and all accrued interest thereon on ____________ (30 months from the date hereof or on the date of a Declaration of Default) (the “Maturity Date”).  The Debtor may not prepay any portion of this Note without the prior consent of the Holder.
 
This Note is one of a series of similar notes (the “Unit Notes”) issued pursuant to a private placement of the Debtor’s securities offered pursuant to a Subscription Agreement and Investment Letter dated October 2, 2009, as amended on October 21, 2009 (“Subscription Agreement”), all of which Notes are secured by a first lien and security interest in all of the assets of the Debtor and Millennium Biotechnologies, Inc. (the “Guarantor”), pursuant to the terms of a security agreement between the Debtor, the Guarantor and the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Unit Note Holders (“Security Agreement”).  The Holder of this Note, by acceptance of this Note, and the holders of the other Unit Notes, by their acceptance of such Unit Notes, have designated Ken Sadowsky, Leon Frenkel and Seahorse Enterprises LLC (i) as the Unit Note representative (the “Unit Note Representative”), for purposes of declaring a default (and enforcement of all rights) under this Note and the other Unit Notes; and (ii) as Collateral Agent under the terms of the Security Agreement.
 
Interest.  Interest shall be computed on the unpaid principal amount at the per annum rate of twelve percent (12%); provided, in the event of the Declaration of Default as defined hereunder, the principal balance shall bear interest from the date of such Declaration until the date of actual payment at the per annum rate of seventeen percent (17%).  All interest payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of actual days elapsed and a year of 360 days.
