jointly and severally promise to pay to the order of INTUIT INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Intuit"), at 2700 Coast Avenue, Mountain View, California 94043,
Attention: Corporate Comptroller, in lawful money of the United States of
America, without offset or deduction, on or before April 12, 2001 (the "Maturity

NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,305,000.00), with interest as set forth herein. The address
for receipt of payments hereunder may be changed at any time by the Note holder
upon ten (10) days' written notice to Borrowers.

sole and exclusive purpose of assisting Borrowers with the purchase of
residential real property located at __________________________________________,
California (the "Property"). Borrowers acknowledge that the benefits of this
loan are not transferable.

3. Payments of Principal and Interest. This Note shall accrue interest
from the date of disbursement of the loan on the principal balance outstanding
from time to time at the rate of six and three-tenths percent (6.30%) per annum,
compounded annually. Borrowers shall pay the entire principal balance, all
accrued interest (subject to Section 4 below), plus any other sums then due

event any sum due hereunder is not paid when due, interest shall be payable on
the unpaid amount, commencing at the date payment was due and continuing until
paid, at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. Payments shall be applied
first to interest accrued and then to the principal balance. However, in no
event shall the rate of interest payable under this Note exceed the maximum rate
permitted by applicable law, and if any payment in the nature of interest shall
cause the maximum rate to be exceeded, the portion of the payment in excess of
the maximum rate shall be applied to reduce the principal balance. Interest
payments for periods less than a year shall be prorated based on a 360-day year.
