FIRST REPLACEMENT PROMISSORY NOTE
(Original Loan)
$5,000,000.00 Indianapolis, Indiana
Date: October 1, 1997
On or before Maturity, NAL ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, a Florida corporation
(the "Maker"), promises to pay to the order of CONSECO PRIVATE CAPITAL GROUP,
INC., an Indiana corporation (the "Payee"), at 00000 Xxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, 00000, the outstanding principal sum of Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000.00) or so much of the principal amount of the Loan represented by
this Note as may be disbursed and outstanding by the Payee under the terms of
the Credit Agreement described below, and to pay interest on the unpaid
principal balance outstanding from time to time until Maturity, as herein
provided.
This Note evidences indebtedness incurred or to be incurred by the Maker
under a loan extended to the Maker by the Payee under a Credit Agreement dated
June 23, 1997, as amended by that First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated
August 21, 1997, and the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement of even date
herewith (as the same may be amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement")
between Maker and Payee, which loan is referred to in the Credit Agreement as
the "Original Loan". All capitalized and designated terms in this Note shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement. The principal amount
of the Loan outstanding from time to time shall be determined by reference to
the books and records of the Payee on which all Advances under the Loan and all
payments by the Maker on account of the Loan shall be recorded. Such books and
records shall be deemed prima facie to be correct as to such matters absent
manifest error.
Interest on the unpaid portion of the principal balance of the Loan
outstanding from time to time, until maturity, whether by acceleration or
otherwise, will accrue at the LIBOR Rate, as provided in the Credit Agreement;
provided, however, interest may accrue in certain circumstances at the per annum
rate equal to the Base Rate, as provided in the Credit Agreement. After
maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise, interest on the unpaid principal
balance of the Loan will accrue at Three Percent (3%) per annum above the
otherwise applicable rate.
Interest on the outstanding balance under this Note will be compounded
monthly on the first day of each month commencing with July 1, 1997, and
continuing on the first day of each consecutive month thereafter and at
Maturity. Accrued interest will be due and payable quarterly commencing on
September 30, 1997, and at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter and at
Maturity.
The entire principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable together
with accrued interest at Maturity. Principal may be prepaid only as provided in
the Credit Agreement and any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied first to
accrued interest and then to principal installments in their inverse order of
maturity. Principal shall also be prepaid as provided in Section 2(a)(i)(D) of
the Credit Agreement.
Receipt of a check or other item of payment in itself shall not constitute
payment. A payment by check and other item of payment shall, for the purpose of
determining the outstanding principal balance and calculating interest, be
credited (conditional upon final collection) after allowing one (1) Banking Day
for collection. Acceptance by the Payee of any payment which is less than full
payment of the amount due and owing or which is not in immediately available
funds shall not constitute a waiver of the Payee's right to receive payment in
full at such or at any other time in immediately available funds.
All amounts payable under the terms of this Note shall be payable with
attorneys' fees and without notice or protest.
This Note is issued pursuant to, is entitled to the benefit of, and is
subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to which reference is made
hereby for, among other things, the definition of certain proper nouns used
herein, procedures to determine and requirements for interest and principal
payments and prepayments, for a statement of any security for the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, procedures for making Advances and for a statement of
provisions for acceleration of the maturity hereof upon the happening of certain
stated events.
The rights and remedies provided in this Note and the Credit Agreement are
cumulative, are in addition to any other right or remedy of Payee, and may be
exercised successively, concurrently or alternatively. Failure to exercise any
such right or remedy shall not operate as a waiver thereof.
The Maker and any endorsers or guarantors severally waive demand,
presentment for payment and notice of nonpayment of this Note, and each of them
consents to any renewals or extensions of the time of payment hereof without
notice.
If more than one party shall execute this Note, the term Maker as used
herein shall mean all parties signing this Note and each of them, and all such
parties, shall be the jointly and severally obligated and liable hereunder.
If any payment is not paid when due, or if default occurs under the Credit
Agreement or the Loan Documents, after any applicable grace period set forth in
the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, the holder may, at its option, after
the giving of any notice and the lapse of any period of grace afforded to Maker
thereunder declare the principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest
immediately due and payable, irrespective of the maturity date specified herein,
with interest thereon from the date of such default at the default rate
specified herein, all without relief from valuation or appraisement laws.
2
This Note is made under and will be governed by the laws of the State of
Florida.
The Payee and the Maker, after consulting or having had the opportunity to
consult with counsel, knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waive any right
either of them may have to a trial by jury in any litigation based upon or
arising out of this Note, the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents, or any
related instrument or agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Note or any course of conduct, dealing, statements (whether oral or written), or
actions of either of them. Neither the Payee nor the Maker shall seek to
consolidate, by counterclaim or otherwise, any action in which a jury trial has
been waived with any other action in which a jury trial cannot be or has not
been waived. These provisions shall not be deemed to have been modified in any
respect or relinquished by either the Payee or the Maker except by a written
instrument executed by both of them.
This Note supersedes and replaces that certain Promissory Note dated June
23, 1997, from Maker to Payee in the original principal amount of Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000) Notice of acceptance of this Note in replacement thereof is
hereby waived.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Maker has executed this Note at __________________,
