(B) Borrower shall not be required to pay, discharge or remove any Imposition so long as Borrower contests in good faith such Impositions or the validity, applicability or amount thereof by an appropriate legal proceeding which operates to prevent the collection of such amounts and the sale of the Mortgaged Premises, or any portion thereof; provided, however, that prior to the date on which such Imposition would otherwise have become delinquent, Borrower shall have (i) given Lender prior written notice of such contest and (ii) deposited with Lender, and shall deposit such additional amounts as are necessary to keep on deposit at all times, in an amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the total of (A) the balance of such Imposition then remaining unpaid, and (B) all interest, penalties, costs and charges accrued or accumulated thereon. Lender shall keep said deposited amounts in an interest bearing, aggregated account (the “Account”) for the Borrower and shall pay out interest at least annually thereon. Any such contest shall be prosecuted with due diligence, and Borrower shall promptly pay from the Account, the amount of such Imposition as finally determined, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender shall have full power and authority to apply any amount deposited with Lender pursuant to this clause to the payment of any unpaid Imposition to prevent the sale or forfeiture of the Mortgaged Premises or any portion thereof for non-payment thereof. Lender shall have no liability, however, for failure to so apply any amount deposited. Any surplus retained by Lender after payment of the Imposition for which a deposit was made, shall be repaid to Borrower unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case said surplus may be retained by Lender to be applied to the obligations in the sole discretion of the Lender.

15.05.5 Make all Obligations immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, hearing or notice of any kind and exercise the remedies of a Lender afforded by the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law or by the terms of any agreement between Borrower and Lender.

15.05.6 In the case of any sale or disposition of the Collateral, or the realization of funds therefrom, the proceeds thereof shall first be applied to the payment of the reasonable expenses of re-taking, maintaining, and foreclosure of Collateral, and costs, fees and expenses of such sale, commissions, reasonable attorney's fees and all charges paid or incurred by Lender pertaining to said sale, including any taxes or other charges imposed by law upon the Collateral and/or the owning, holding or transferring thereof; secondly, to pay, satisfy, and discharge the Obligations secured hereby pro rata in accordance with the unpaid amount thereof; and thirdly, to pay the surplus, if any, to Borrower, provided that the time of any application of the proceeds shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender. To the extent such proceeds do not satisfy the foregoing items, Borrower hereby promises and agrees to pay the deficiency.

15.05.7 The Lender and the holders of the Obligations may take or release other security, may release any party primarily or secondarily liable for any of the Obligations, may grant extensions, renewals or indulgences with respect to the Obligations, or may apply to the Obligations the proceeds of the Collateral or any amount received on account of the Collateral by the exercise of any right permitted hereunder, without resorting or regard to other security or sources of reimbursement.

15.05.8 Require the Borrower to assemble the Collateral in a single location at a place to be designated by Lender and make the Collateral at all times secure and available to the Lender.

15.05.9 The Lender shall hereby also be granted a security interest in, and right of set off against any balance on any deposit, deposit account, agency, reserve, holdback, or other account maintained by, or on behalf of, the Borrower with the Lender and the Lender shall have the right to apply the proceeds of such foreclosure or set off against such items of Borrowers' Obligations as Lender may select.

15.05.10 All rights and remedies of Lender whether provided for herein or in other agreements, instruments, or documents, or conferred by law, are cumulative and not alternative and may be enforced successively.

15.05.11 The parties agree that in the event that a determination of Adequate Protection of Lender is required under Section 362 or 363 of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (Code), its successor, or Bankruptcy Rules in connection therewith, that:

A. The bargain of the parties at the time of lien creation hereunder in order to provide the Lender with adequate protection to induce it to make the loan(s), included stated ratios herein.

B. That in the event of any proceeding under the Code, that the said ratio of the value (as determined by the Lender in its sole discretion) Collateral secured to Lender to the amount of the Obligation (“Collateral-To-Obligation Ratio”), must be increased by an additional one hundred ten percent (110%) in order to continue to provide minimum levels of Adequate Protection to Lender due to the reduced expectation for present and future prospects of lien enforcement resulting from the existence of proceedings under the Code. This agreed minimum increase in said ratio shall not act to bar Lender from presenting evidence that even such increase is insufficient and leaves the Lender without Adequate Protection, based upon the deteriorating nature or kind of Collateral, wholly or in part, in any instance.

C. That the parties agree that the costs of liquidating and collecting of Collateral, as well as the potential for rapid Collateral deterioration if Borrower is, at any time, subject to the Code, all require that the original Collateral-To-Obligation Ratio be increased, as aforesaid, as a requirement of minimum Adequate Protection, in addition to such other additional Adequate Protection as may be required by the Lender.

D. The parties agree that these covenants shall be conclusive evidence in any proceeding to determine minimum Adequate Protection under the Code, as to the intention and agreement of the parties at both this time, and at all times hereinafter, until the Obligations to the Lender, are paid in full.

E. That these agreements may be submitted to the Court in any such proceeding, by the Lender, in its sole and exclusive discretion, as conclusive evidence as to the agreement of the parties at the time of such hearing, concerning minimum Adequate Protection to be provided to the Lender at the time of presentment. PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such submission shall not constitute a waiver of any default or breach hereunder, or of any other agreement by the Borrower to the Lender, but shall remain only as evidence for the limited purposes stated herein.

F. PROVIDED, FURTHER that at all times the Lender reserves, and does not waive Borrower's obligation to provide Adequate Protection prior to the Borrower's use of "cash collateral" as defined in Section 363 of the Code.

15.05.12 The Lender has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting from any other Person liable for them and Lender may release, modify or waive any Collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Lender’s rights against Borrower. Borrower waives any right it may have to require Lender to pursue any third Person for any of the Obligations.

15.05.13 Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

15.05.14 Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered adversely to affect, the commercial reasonableness of the sale of the Collateral.

15.05.15 If Lender agrees with a purchaser to sell the Collateral upon credit, Borrower will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Lender and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event that purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Lender may resell the Collateral and Borrower shall be credited with the net proceeds of the sale.

15.05.16 In the event Lender purchases any of the Collateral being sold, Lender may pay for the Collateral by crediting some or all of the Obligations of the Borrower.

15.05.17 Lender has no obligation to xxxxxxxx any assets in favor of Borrower or in payment of any of the Obligations or any other obligations owed to Lender by Borrower or any other person.

15.06 DISTRIBUTION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS

In the event that, following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the Lender receives any monies in connection with the enforcement of any the Security Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon any of the Collateral, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Lender for or in respect of all reasonable costs, expenses, attorneys fees, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the Lender in connection with the collection of such monies by the Lender, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Lender of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Lender against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Lender to such monies;

(b) Second, to all Obligations in such order or preference as the Lender may determine in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the Lender may in its discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable;

(c) Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Lender of all of the Obligations, to the payment of any obligations required to be paid pursuant to Article IX of the Uniform Commercial Code of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and

(d) Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.

At any time, either party may advise the other that no further loans or advances are to be made, but such notice shall in no way cause any and all obligations of the Borrower to Lender to be waived.

19.00 SETOFF

Regardless of the adequacy of any Collateral, and at all times, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch of the Lender where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from the Lender to the Borrower and any securities or other property of the Borrower in the possession of the Lender may be applied to or set off against the payment of the Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower to the Lender.

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning given in the Loan Agreement. The principal outstanding shall be repaid, together with interest thereon as provided in this Note as follows:

INTEREST

For the entire term of the Loan, the Loan shall bear interest at an adjustable annual rate equal to thirty (30) day LIBOR, plus Two Hundred Seventy Five (275) basis points (collectively the “Applicable Rate”). Such adjustments shall become effective on the 1st day of each month (the “Reset Date”). Lender shall not be required to notify Borrower of adjustments in said interest rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at no time shall the Applicable Rate be less than four percent (4.00%) during the “Interest Only Period” (defined hereinafter).

A. Commencing on March 1, 2009 and thereafter on the same day of each succeeding month for a period of twelve (12) months (the “Interest Only Period”), monthly payments of interest only in arrears, calculated at the above rate of interest upon the unpaid principal

C. All remaining unpaid principal and all accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable in full ten (10) years from the date hereof.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement, the amount of the Borrower’s available construction line of credit hereunder shall be subject to the terms set forth in the Loan Agreement. This Note is the Note referred to in, and is subject to, and entitled to, the benefits of the Loan Agreement between the Borrower and the Lender. The terms used herein which are defined in the Loan Agreement shall have their defined meanings when used herein. The Loan Agreement, among other things, contains provisions for acceleration of the maturity of this Note upon the happening of certain stated events.

Principal sums advanced under this Note shall reduce the amount of principal available under this Note and may not be re-borrowed or re-advanced. This Note may be prepaid only in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Loan Agreement which does contain a provision for a Prepayment Premium in accordance with Section 4.10 of the Loan Agreement. All prepayments (with prepayment defined herein as any payment of principal in advance of its due date) shall be applied against the principal payments due hereunder in the inverse order of their maturity.

The Lender may, in its sole discretion, and notwithstanding execution of this Note by the Borrower in its stated maximum Principal Sum, act to advance lesser sums thereon to the Borrower in amounts, and at times in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

However, nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Lender, in its sole and exclusive discretion, from making Advances in excess of the stated maximum dollar amount, without requirement of execution of additional promissory note(s), or otherwise modifying this Note, and its so doing at any time, or times, shall not waive its rights to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note, the Loan Agreement, or any other instruments executed in connection with this financial transaction, at any other time, and to further rely upon all collateral secured to it for satisfaction of all obligations of the Borrower to the Lender, without exception.

Borrower agrees that the Lender may, at its sole and exclusive discretion, make loan advances to the Borrower upon verbal, or written, authority of any two of the following four individuals: Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx ; may deliver loan proceeds by direct deposit to any demand deposit account of the Borrower with the Lender, or

otherwise, as so directed; and that all such loans and advances as evidenced solely by the Lender's books, ledgers and records shall conclusively represent binding obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

The Lender shall also record as a debit to the Borrower’s Loan Account, in accordance with its customary accounting practice, all other obligations, debts, charges, expenses, and other items properly chargeable to the Borrower; and shall credit all payments made by the Borrower on account of indebtedness evidenced by the Borrower’s Loan Account; as well as all proceeds of collateral which are finally paid to the Lender at its own office in cash or solvent credits; and other appropriate debits and credits. The principal balance of the Borrower’s Loan Account shall reflect the amount of the Borrower’s indebtedness to the Lender from time-to-time by reason of loans and other appropriate charges hereunder. At least once each month the Lender shall render a statement of account for the Borrower’s Loan Account which statement shall be considered correct and accepted by the Borrower and conclusively binding upon the Borrower, unless the subject of written objection received by Lender, certified mail, return receipt requested, within ten (10) days after mailing of its statement to Borrower.

Borrower does hereby irrevocably grant to the Lender, full power and authority, at its discretion, to debit any deposit account of the Borrower with the Lender for the amount of any monthly interest owing on Borrower’s Loan Account referred to herein; for the amount of any principal reduction, or for any repayment of obligations due upon Borrower’s Loan Account which the Lender may require, all without prior notice, or demand upon the Borrower.

Any payments received by Lender with respect to this Note shall be applied first to any costs, charges, or expenses (including attorney's fees) due Lender from the Borrower, second to any unpaid interest hereunder, and third to the unpaid Principal Sum.

If any payment required hereunder is more than ten (10) days overdue, (in addition to the interest accruing hereunder) a late charge of five percent (5%) of the overdue payment shall be charged to the Borrower and be immediately due and payable to Lender. Any payment having a due date falling upon a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday shall be due and payable on the next business day for which Lender is open for business, and interest shall continue to accrue during any such period.

If any payment received by Lender with respect to this Note shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under federal or state law, or otherwise due any party other than Lender, then the obligation for which the payment was made shall not be discharged by the payment and shall survive as an obligation due hereunder, notwithstanding the Lender's return to the Borrower or any other party of the original of this Note or other instrument evidencing the obligation for which payment was made.

Interest hereunder shall be computed in accordance with the Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, interest upon the total unpaid principal hereunder shall thereafter, at Lender's option, without notice to Borrower and until payment in full of all obligations

hereunder, accrue at a rate ("Default Rate") equal to five percent (5%) above the interest rate then in effect hereunder at the time of default.

It is not intended under this Note to charge interest at a rate exceeding the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law, but if interest exceeding said maximum rate should be paid hereunder, the excess shall, at Lender's option, be (a) deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal not subject to the prepayment premium (if any) set forth herein or (b) refunded to the Borrower.

The following described property, in addition to all other collateral now or hereafter provided by the Borrower to Lender, shall secure this Note and all other present or future obligations of the Borrower to Lender: The Loan shall be secured by First Mortgage and Security Interest on the Premises known as 000 Xxxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx (“Mortgaged Premises”), together with a collateral assignment of rents and leases. The Lender shall also be granted a collateral assignment of all deposits, rights, licenses, permits, construction contracts, architect contracts and other governmental approvals necessary for the construction, development, use and occupancy of the Mortgaged Premises for its intended purpose.

As additional collateral for the payment and performance of this Note and all other obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower to Lender, Lender shall at all times have and is hereby granted a security interest in and right of offset against all cash, deposit balances and/or accounts, instruments, securities, or other property of the Borrower, now or hereafter in the possession of Lender, whether for safekeeping or otherwise. This right of offset shall permit Lender at any time, after default, and without notice to the Borrower to transfer such funds or property as may be deemed by Lender to be appropriate so as to reduce or satisfy any obligation of the Borrower to the Lender.

This Note shall be in default, and all unpaid principal, interest, and other amounts due hereunder, shall, at Lender's option, be immediately due and payable, without prior notice, protest, or demand, upon the occurrence of any one or more of the events of default (the "Events of Default"), in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement. Default upon this Note shall also operate as a default upon all other Obligations of Borrower to Lender.

The Borrower (a) waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and delay in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, collection, and enforcement of this Note, and (b) assents to any extension, renewal, modification, or other indulgence permitted by Lender with respect to this Note, including, without limitation, any release, substitution, or addition of co-makers, of this Note and any release, substitution, or addition of collateral securing this Note or any other obligations of the Borrower to Lender, and (c) authorizes Lender, in its sole and exclusive discretion and without notice to the Borrower, to complete this Note if delivered incomplete in any respect.

No indulgence, delay, or omission by Lender in exercising or enforcing any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any such rights or remedies or of the right to exercise them at any later time. No waiver of any default hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any other

default hereunder or as a continuing waiver. The Lender's acceptance of any payment hereunder, following any default, shall not constitute a waiver of such default or of any of the Lender's rights or remedies hereunder (including charging interest at the Default Rate), unless waived in writing by Lender.

All of the Lender's rights and remedies hereunder and under any other loan documents, or instruments, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently, at the Lender's sole and exclusive discretion.

The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the protection and/or enforcement of any of Lender's rights or remedies hereunder, whether or not any suit has been instituted by Lender.

The word "Lender" where used herein shall mean the named payee, its successors, assigns, affiliates, and endorsees (and/or the holder of this Note if, at any time, it is made payable to bearer), all of whom this Note shall inure to their benefit as holders in due course.

The word "Borrower" where used herein includes its successors and assigns of this Note, and their respective heirs, successors, assigns, and representatives, shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder. Any reference herein to the Borrower, is a reference to such party or parties individually as well as collectively.

The use of masculine or neuter genders hereunder shall be deemed to include the feminine, and the use of the singular or the plural herein shall be deemed to include the other, as the context may require.

	GeoQuest Project No. 1508

Ladies/Gentlemen:

As you are aware, GeoQuest, Inc. is currently conducting a soil remediation project on the above referenced property. The excavation and off-site disposal of the contaminated soil is currently ongoing. Upon the completion of the fieldwork and receipt of the laboratory analyses for the confirmation soil samples, GeoQuest will complete a final report for the project. A copy of this report will be forwarded to Berkshire Bank for its records.

In order to comply with wetlands regulations, soil contamination on one portion of the site (a 12,000 square foot designated wetland located along the western exterior wall of the proposed site building) will remain after the current remediation project is completed. Based on field observations, this area contains approximately 1,000 yards of contaminated soil. The final report will include site plans depicting the location of the wetland area. A site plan of this wetlands area is attached.

The contaminated soil remaining in the wetland area does not pose a health risk to site occupants and does not require removal in order to comply with current State or Federal regulations.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the project in further detail, please call me at (000) 000-0000.

	Very truly yours,
	GEOQUEST, INC.
