Form of Note

PROMISSORY NOTE

up to $1,500,000.00                                                               

April 23, 2015

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, TRANS-LUX CORPORATION, a New York corporation, as maker, having an address at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 ("Borrower" or “the Borrower”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of BFI CAPITAL FUND II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, its successors and/or assigns, as payee, with an address c/o Bridge Funding Inc., 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 ("Lender"), or at such other place as the holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of up to ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($1,500,000.00) (the "Principal Indebtedness"), in lawful money of the United States of America with interest thereon or on so much thereof as may have been so advanced, to be computed from the date of this promissory note (the "Note") at the Applicable Interest Rate (defined below), and to be paid in installments as follows:

ARTICLE 1.  PAYMENT TERMS

Upon execution of this Note, Borrower is paying an interest payment representing the interest due from the date of this Note to the last day of April, 2015; payments of interest only shall be due and payable commencing June 1, 2015 and on the same day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the 1st day of May, 2016 (the "Maturity Date"; the period from the date hereof to the Maturity Date is hereinafter referred to as the “Term”), when a balloon principal payment of $1,500,000.00, plus any accrued interest and other note related charges shall be due and owing, unless earlier repaid pursuant to the terms of that certain credit agreement between the Borrower and the Lender dated as of April 23, 2015 (the “Credit Agreement”).

Interest on the principal sum of this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days and shall be charged for the actual number of days elapsed.   

ARTICLE 2.  INTEREST

The term "Applicable Interest Rate" as used in the Security Instrument (defined below) and this Note shall mean twelve and 00/100 percent (12.00%).

ARTICLE 3.     DEFAULT AND ACCELERATION

(a) The whole of the principal sum of this Note, (b) interest, default interest, late charges and other sums, as provided in this Note, the Security Instrument (defined below) or the Other Security Documents (defined below), (c) all other monies agreed or provided to be paid by Borrower in this Note, the Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents, (d) all sums advanced pursuant to the Security Instrument to protect and preserve the Property (defined below) and the lien and the security interest created thereby, and (e) all sums advanced and costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Debt (defined below) or any part thereof, any renewal, extension, or change of or substitution for the Debt or any part thereof, or the acquisition or perfection of the security therefor, whether made or incurred at the request of Borrower or Lender (all the sums referred to in (a) through (e) above shall collectively be referred to as the "Debt") shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Lender if any payment required in this Note (monetary default)  is not paid on or prior to the tenth (10th) day after the date when any monthly payment is due or on the Maturity Date or, on the happening of any other default (non-monetary default), after the expiration of any notice and applicable grace periods herein or under the terms of the Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents (collectively, an "Event of Default").

ARTICLE 4.     DEFAULT INTEREST

Upon the occurrence of an uncured Event of Default, Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum at a rate of eighteen percent (18.00%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed to be charged by law, whichever is lower (the "Default Rate").  The Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the uncured Event of Default until the earlier of (i) the date prior to the day upon which the Event of Default is cured, or (ii) the date upon which the Debt is paid in full.  Interest calculated at the Default Rate shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Security Instrument.

THE BORROWER SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST REFERRED TO IN THIS NOTE AND AS CONTRACTED BY THE PARTIES SHALL SURVIVE THE ENTRY OF ANY MONETARY JUDGMENT AND/OR JUDGMENT OF FORECLOSURE, AS APPLICABLE.  THE DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST SHALL BE IMPOSED AND CONTINUE TO ACCRUE UNTIL SUCH TIME AS ANY MONETARY JUDGMENT AND/OR JUDGMENT OF FORECLOSURE, ENTERED IN CONNECTION WITH THE UNDERLYING DEBT HAS BEEN PAID AND SATISFIED IN FULL.

AS SUCH, THE STATUTORY JUDGMENT INTEREST RATE SET FORTH IN NEW YORK CPLR SECTION 5004 IS INAPPLICABLE; RATHER, THE DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT AND BE IMPOSED SUBSEQUENT TO THE ENTRY OF ANY MONETARY JUDGMENT AND/OR JUDGMENT OF FORECLOSURE.

2

THE BORROWER FURTHER SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE APPLICABILITY OF THE DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST, PURSUANT TO THIS NOTE AND AS CONTRACTED BY THE PARTIES, SUBSEQUENT TO THE ENTRY OF ANY MONETARY JUDGMENT AND/OR JUDGMENT OF FORECLOSURE, IS A DIRECT INDUCEMENT AND CONSIDERATION FOR THE LENDER TO ENTER INTO THIS NOTE.  THE BORROWER HAS KNOWINGLY WAIVED THE APPLICABLITY OF THE STATUTORY JUDGMENT RATE SET FORTH IN NEW YORK CPLR SECTION 5004 OR ANY OTHER RELEVANT CIVIL STATUTE, SUBSEQUENT TO THE ENTRY OF A MONETARY JUDGMENT AND/OR JUDGMENT OF FORECLOSURE.

ARTICLE 5.     PREPAYMENT

Borrower may prepay the whole of the Principal Indebtedness, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, computed through the last day of the month of prepayment, at any time upon five (5) days written notice to Lender (the "Prepayment Date").  If this Note is not prepaid in whole on the Prepayment Date, Borrower may subsequently prepay this Note at any time by providing Lender with a new written notice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event this Note is prepaid prior to the date that is three (3) months from the date hereof, Borrower shall pay to Lender, as a prepayment penalty, the amount which is equal to interest due for a period of three (3) months from the date hereof with credit given to Borrower for any interest paid to Lender through the date of prepayment.

This Article 5 shall apply in all cases of prepayment, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, or due to the Lender's exercise of its acceleration rights or any other remedies available to the Lender under the Security Instrument, the Other Security Documents, at law or in equity.

ARTICLE 6.  SECURITY

This Note is secured by the Security Instrument (the "Security Instrument") and the Other Security Documents. The term "Other Security Documents" as used in this Note shall mean all and any of the documents other than this Note or the Security Instrument, now or hereafter executed by Borrower and/or others and by or in favor of Lender, which wholly or partially secure or guarantee payment of this Note  Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural number shall include the singular, and the words "Lender" and "Borrower" shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.

All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein.

3

ARTICLE 7.  COMPLIANCE WITH USURY LAWS

It is the intention of the parties to conform strictly to the usury laws, whether state or federal, that are applicable to this Note. All agreements between Borrower and Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender, or collected by Lender, for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned hereunder or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein, the Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable federal or state usury laws. If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, the Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if under any circumstances Lender shall ever receive an amount deemed interest by applicable law, which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest under applicable usury laws shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing hereunder or to other indebtedness secured by the Security Instrument and/or the Other Security Documents and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal and such other indebtedness, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Borrower or to any other person making such payment on behalf of Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness of Borrower evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and to the extent necessary to preclude exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of this Note until payment in full of this Note so that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform throughout the term hereof and thereof. The terms and provisions of this Article shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and Lender and any endorser or guarantor.

ARTICLE 8.  LATE CHARGE

If any monthly payment under this Note is not received by the Borrower hereof within ten (10) days after the payment is due, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender a late charge of five percent (5.00%) of such payment, such late charge to be immediately due and payable without demand by Borrower. If the balloon payment due under this Note upon the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise, is not made upon the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender a late charge of five percent (5.00%) of such balloon payment, such late charge to be immediately due and payable without demand by the Lender and without allowance for any grace period.

4

ARTICLE 9.  NO ORAL CHANGE

This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Borrower or Lender, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.

ARTICLE 10.  JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

If Borrower consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each person or party shall be joint and several.

All terms defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and used herein shall have the same definitions herein as specified therein. However, if a term is defined in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State differently than in another Article of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, the term has the meaning specified in Article 9. The term "Obligations," as used herein, means all of the indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the Debtor to the Secured Party, individually or collectively, whether direct or indirect, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising under or in respect of the Credit Agreement, any promissory notes or other instruments or agreements executed and delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or this Agreement, and the term "Event of Default," as used herein, means the failure of the Debtor to pay or perform any of the Obligations as and when due to be paid or performed under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

10.3.

Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.

11.1.

Expenses Incurred by Secured Party. In the Secured Party's discretion, if the Debtor fails to do so, the Secured Party may discharge taxes and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral, maintain any of the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees or insurance premiums. The Debtor agrees to reimburse the Secured Party within fifteen (15) days of written demand for all expenditures so made. The Secured Party shall have no obligation to the Debtor to make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof be construed as the waiver or cure of any Event of Default.

11.2.

Secured Party's Obligations and Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Debtor shall remain obligated and liable under each contract or agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the Debtor thereunder. The Secured Party shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Secured Party of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of the Debtor under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Secured Party in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Secured Party or to which the Secured Party may be entitled at any time or times. The Secured Party's sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Secured Party deals with similar property for its own account.

12.

Securities and Deposits. The Secured Party may at any time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at its option, transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the Obligations. Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Secured Party may, following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, demand, xxx for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable and is consistent with the Uniform Commercial Code of the State with respect to the Collateral. Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Secured Party to the Debtor may at any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations then due and owing.

13.

After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, the Debtor shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Debtor as trustee for the Secured Party without commingling the same with other funds of the Debtor and shall turn the same over to the Secured Party in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments. The Secured Party shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Secured Party to the Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately credited after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.

Appointment and Powers of Secured Party. The Debtor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Secured Party and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Debtor or in the Secured Party's own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or useful to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives said attorneys the power and right, on behalf of the Debtor, without notice to or assent by the Debtor, to do the following:

(a)

upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise dispose of or deal with any of the Collateral in such manner as is consistent with the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and as fully and completely as though the Secured Party were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Debtor's expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Secured Party reasonably deems necessary or useful to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Secured Party's security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all at least as fully and effectively as a reasonable and competent debtor might do, including, without limitation, (i) the filing and prosecuting of registration and transfer applications with the appropriate federal, state, local or other agencies or authorities with respect to trademarks, copyrights and patentable inventions and processes, (ii) upon reasonably adequate written notice to the Debtor, the exercise of voting rights with respect to voting securities, which rights may be exercised, if the Secured Party so elects, with a view to causing the liquidation of assets of the issuer of any such securities, and (iii) the execution, delivery and recording, in connection with any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, of the endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to such Collateral; and

9

(b)

14.2.

Ratification by Debtor. To the extent permitted by law, the Debtor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

14.3.

No Duty on Secured Party. The powers conferred on the Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Debtor for any act or failure to act, except for the Secured Party's own recklessness, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.

Rights and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party, without any other notice to or demand upon the Debtor have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and any additional rights and remedies which may be provided to a secured party in any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Secured Party may, so far as the Debtor can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom. The Secured Party may in its discretion require the Debtor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of the Debtor's principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Secured Party may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Secured Party shall give to the Debtor at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. The Debtor hereby acknowledges that ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition, the Debtor waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Secured Party's rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, its right following an uncured Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights and remedies with respect thereto.

10

16.

Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Secured Party to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Debtor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Secured Party (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Secured Party to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Debtor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (g) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Secured Party against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Secured Party a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (l) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Secured Party, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Secured Party in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  The Debtor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 16 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Secured Party would fulfill the Secured Party's duties under the Uniform Commercial Code or other law of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Secured Party's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Party shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 16. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 16 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Debtor or to impose any duties on the Secured Party that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 16.

17.

No Waiver by Secured Party, etc. The Secured Party shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies in respect of the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Secured Party. No delay or omission on the part of the Secured Party in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Secured Party with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Secured Party deems expedient.

The Debtor further waives any and all other suretyship defenses.

19.

Marshalling. The Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, the Debtor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Party's rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, the Debtor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

20.
