THIS COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT dated May 14, 2004, is made and executed
between Pyramid Breweries Inc. ("Grantor") and First Mutual Bank ("Lender").
GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. For valuable consideration. Grantor grants to Lender
a security interest in the Collateral to secure the Indebtedness and agrees that
Lender shall have the rights stated in this Agreement with respect to the
Collateral, in addition to all other rights which Lender may have by law.
COLLATERAL DESCRIPTION. The word "Collateral" as used in this Agreement means
the following described property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, and wherever located, in which
Grantor is giving to Lender a security interest for the payment of the
Indebtedness and performance of all other obligations under the Note and this
Agreement:
All Inventory, Chattel Paper, Accounts, Equipment and General Intangibles
In addition, the word "Collateral" also includes all the following, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and
wherever located:
(A) All accessions, attachments, accessories, tools, parts, supplies,
replacements of and additions to any of the collateral described herein,
whether added now or later.
(B) All products and produce of any of the property described in this
Collateral section.
(C) All accounts, general intangibles, instruments, rents, monies,
payments, and all other rights, arising out of a sale, lease, consignment
or other disposition of any of the property described in this Collateral
section.
(D) All proceeds (including insurance proceeds) from the sale, destruction,
loss, or other disposition of any of the property described in this
Collateral section, and sums due from a third party who has damaged or
destroyed the Collateral or from that party's insurer, whether due to
judgment, settlement or other process.
(E) All records and data relating to any of the property described in this
Collateral section, whether in the form of a writing, photograph,
microfilm, microfiche, or electronic media, together with all of Grantor's
right, title, and interest in and to all computer software required to
utilize, create, maintain, and process any such records or data on
electronic media.
Despite any other provision of this Agreement, Lender is not granted, and will
not have, a nonpurchase money security interest in household goods, to the
extent such a security interest would be prohibited by applicable law. In
addition, if because of the type of any Property, Lender is required to give a
notice of the right to cancel under Truth in Lending for the Indebtedness, then
Lender will not have a security interest in such Collateral unless and until
such a notice is given.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Grantor's accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Grantor holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Grantor may open in the future.
However, this does not include any XXX or Xxxxx accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Grantor authorizes Lender, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the
Indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender's option, to
administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's
charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.
GRANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLATERAL. With
respect to the Collateral, Grantor represents and promises to Lender that:
PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Grantor agrees to take whatever actions
are requested by Lender to perfect and continue Lender's security interest
in the Collateral. Upon request of Lender, Grantor will deliver to Lender
any and all of the documents evidencing or constituting the Collateral, and
Grantor will note Lender's interest upon any and all chattel paper and
instruments if not delivered to Lender for possession by Lender. This is a
continuing Security Agreement and will continue in effect even though all
or any part of the Indebtedness is paid in full and even though for a
period of time Grantor may not be Indebted to Lender.
NOTICES TO LENDER. Grantor will promptly notify Lender in writing at
Lender's address shown above (or such other addresses as Lender may
designate from time to time) prior to any (1) change in Grantor's name; (2)
change in Grantor's assumed business name(s); (3) change in the management
of the Corporation Grantor; (4) change in the authorized signer(s); (5)
change in Grantor's principal office address; (6) Change in Grantor's state
of organization; (7) conversion of Grantor to a new or different type of
business entity; No change in Grantor's name or state of organization will
take effect until after Lender has received notice.
NO VIOLATION. The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate
any law or agreement governing Grantor or to which Grantor is a party, and
its certificate or articles of incorporation and bylaws do not prohibit any
term or condition of this Agreement.
ENFORCEABILITY OF COLLATERAL. To the extent the Collateral consists of
accounts, chattel paper, or general intangibles, as defined by the Uniform
Commercial Code, the Collateral is enforceable in accordance with its
terms, is genuine, and fully complies with all applicable laws and
regulations concerning form, content and manner of preparation and
execution, and all persons appearing to be obligated on the Collateral have
authority and capacity to contract and are in fact obligated as they appear
to be on the Collateral. At the time any account becomes subject to a
security interest in favor of Lender, the account shall be a good and valid
account representing an bonafide indebtedness incurred by the account
debtor, for merchandise held subject to delivery instructions or previously
shipped or delivered pursuant to a contract of sale, or for services
previously performed by Grantor with or for the account debtor. So long as
this Agreement remains in effect. Grantor shall not, without Lender's prior
written consent, ** See Page 5 compromise, settle, adjust, or extend
payment under or with regard to any such Accounts. There shall be no
setoffs or counterclaims against any of the Collateral, and no agreement
shall have been made under which any deductions or discounts may be claimed
concerning the Collateral except those disclosed to Lender in writing.
LOCATION OF THE COLLATERAL. Except in the ordinary course of Grantor's
business, Grantor agrees to keep the Collateral (or to the extent the
Collateral consists of intangible property such as accounts or general
intangibles, the records concerning the Collateral) at Grantor's address
shown above or at such other locations as are acceptable to Lender. Upon
Lender's request, Grantor will deliver to Lender in form satisfactory to
Lender a schedule of real properties and Collateral locations relating to
Grantor's operations, including without limitation the following: (1) all
real property Grantor owns or is purchasing; (2) all real property Grantor
is renting or leasing; (3) all storage facilities Grantor owns, rents,
leases, or uses; and (4) all other properties where Collateral is or may be
located.
COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
LOAN NO: 00-000000-00 (CONTINUED) PAGE 2
and encumbrances except for the lien of this Agreement. No financing
statement covering any of the Collateral is on file in any public office
other than those which reflect the security interest created by this
Agreement or to which Lender has specifically consented. Grantor shall
defend Lender's rights in the Collateral against the claims and demands of
all other persons.
REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. Grantor agrees to keep and maintain, and to cause
others to keep and maintain, the Collateral in good order, repair and
condition at all times while this Agreement remains in effect. Grantor
further agrees to pay when due all claims for work done on, or services
rendered or material furnished in connection with the Collateral so that no
lien or encumbrance may ever attach to or be filed against the Collateral.
INSPECTION OF COLLATERAL. Lender and Lender's designated representatives
and agents shall have the right at all reasonable times to examine and
inspect the Collateral wherever located.
TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND LIENS. Grantor will pay when due all taxes,
assessments and liens upon the Collateral, its use or operation, upon this
Agreement, upon any promissory note or notes evidencing the Indebtedness,
or upon any of the other Related Documents. Grantor may withhold any such
payment or may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith
conducting an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and
so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized in
Lender's sole opinion. If the Collateral is subjected to a lien which is
not discharged within fifteen (15) days, Grantor shall deposit with Lender
cash, a sufficient corporate surety bond or other security satisfactory to
Lender in an amount adequate to provide for the discharge of the lien plus
any interest, costs, attorneys' fees or other charges that could accrue as
a result of foreclosure or sale of the Collateral. In any contest Grantor
shall defend itself and Lender and shall satisfy any final adverse judgment
before enforcement against the Collateral. Grantor shall name Lender as an
additional obligee under any surety bond furnished in the contest
proceedings. Grantor further agrees to furnish Lender with evidence that
such taxes, assessments, and governmental and other charges have been paid
in full and in a timely manner. Grantor may withhold any such payment or
may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith conducting an
appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and so long as
Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized.
COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS. Grantor shall comply promptly
with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all governmental
authorities, now or hereafter in effect, applicable to the ownership,
production, disposition, or use of the Collateral, including all laws or
regulations relating to the undue erosion of highly-erodible land or
relating to the conversion of wetlands for the production of an
agricultural product or commodity. Grantor may contest in good faith any
such law, ordinance or regulation and withhold compliance during any
proceeding, including appropriate appeals, so long as Lender's interest in
the Collateral, in Lender's opinion, is not jeopardized.
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Grantor represents and warrants that the Collateral
never has been, and never will be so long as this Agreement remains a lien
on the Collateral, used in violation of any Environmental Laws or for the
generation, manufacture, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal,
release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance. The
representations and warranties contained herein are based on Grantor's due
diligence in investigating the Collateral for Hazardous Substances. Grantor
hereby (1) releases and waives any future claims against Lender for
indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes liable for cleanup
or other costs under any Environmental Laws, and (2) agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims and losses resulting
from a breach of this provision of this Agreement. This obligation to
indemnify shall survive the payment of the indebtedness and the
satisfaction of this Agreement.
MAINTENANCE OF CASUALTY INSURANCE. Grantor shall procure and maintain all
risks insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability
coverage together with such other insurance as Lender may require with
respect to the Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages and basis reasonably
acceptable to Lender and issued by a company or companies reasonably
acceptable to Lender. Grantor, upon request of Lender, will deliver to
Lender from time to time the policies or certificates of insurance in form
satisfactory to Lender, including stipulations that coverages will not be
cancelled or diminished without at least thirty (30) days' prior written
notice to Lender and not including any disclaimer of the insurer's
liability for failure to give such a notice. Each insurance policy also
shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of Lender
will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor
or any other person. In connection with all policies covering assets in
which Lender holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide
Lender with such loss payable or other endorsements as Lender may require.
If Grantor at any time fails to obtain or maintain any insurance as
required under this Agreement, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to)
obtain such insurance as Lender deems appropriate, including if Lender so
chooses "single interest insurance," which will cover only Lender's
interest in the Collateral.
APPLICATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of
any loss or damage to the Collateral. Lender may make proof of loss if
Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. All
proceeds of any insurance on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds
thereon, shall be held by Lender as part of the Collateral. If Lender
consents to repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Collateral,
Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of expenditure, pay or reimburse
Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration.
If Lender does not consent to repair or replacement of the Collateral,
Lender shall retain a sufficient amount of the proceeds to pay all of the
Indebtedness, and shall pay the balance to Grantor. Any proceeds which have
not been disbursed within six (6) months after their receipt and which
Grantor has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Collateral
shall be used to prepay the Indebtedness.
INSURANCE RESERVES. Lender may require Grantor to maintain with Lender
reserves for payment of insurance premiums, which reserves shall be created
by monthly payments from Grantor of a sum estimated by Lender to be
sufficient to produce, at least fifteen (15) days before the premium due
date, amounts at least equal to the insurance premiums to be paid. If
fifteen (15) days before payment is due, the reserve funds are
insufficient, Grantor shall upon demand pay any deficiency to Lender. The
reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general deposit and shall
constitute a non-interest-bearing account which Lender may satisfy by
payment of the insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor as they
become due. Lender does not hold the reserve funds in trust for Grantor,
and Lender is not the agent of Grantor for payment of the insurance
premiums required to be paid by Grantor. The responsibility for the payment
of premiums shall remain Grantor's sole responsibility.
INSURANCE REPORTS. Grantor, upon request of Lender, shall furnish to Lender
reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as
Lender may reasonably request including the following: (1) the name of the
insurer; (2) the risks insured; (3) the amount of the policy; (4) the
property insured; (5) the then current value on the basis of which
insurance has been obtained and the manner of determining that value; and
(6) the expiration date of the policy. In addition, Grantor shall upon
request by Lender (however not more often than annually) have an
independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine, as applicable, the
cash value or replacement cost of the Collateral.
FINANCING STATEMENTS. Grantor authorizes Lender to file a UCC financing
statement, or alternatively, a copy of this Agreement to perfect Lender's
security interest. At Lender's request, Grantor additionally agrees to sign
all other documents that are necessary to perfect, protect, and continue
Lender's security interest in the Property. Grantor will pay all filing
fees, title transfer fees, and other fees and costs involved unless
prohibited by law or unless Lender is required by law to pay such fees and
costs. Grantor irrevocably appoints Lender to execute documents necessary
to transfer title if there is a default. Lender may file a copy of this
Agreement as a financing statement. If Grantor changes Grantor's name or
address, or the name or address of any person granting a security interest
under this Agreement changes, Grantor will promptly notify the Lender of
such change.
GRANTOR'S RIGHT TO POSSESSION AND TO COLLECT ACCOUNTS. Until default and except
as otherwise provided below with respect to accounts, Grantor may have
possession of the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the
Collateral and may use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this
Agreement or the Related Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession
and beneficial use shall not apply to any Collateral where possession of the
Collateral by Lender is required by law to perfect Lender's security interest in
such Collateral. Until otherwise notified by Lender, Grantor may collect any of
the Collateral consisting of accounts. At any time and Event of
COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
LOAN NO: 00-000000-00 (CONTINUED) PAGE 3
will secure payment of these amounts. Such right shall be in addition to all
other rights and remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon Default.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement:
PAYMENT DEFAULT. Grantor fails to make any payment when due under the
Indebtedness.
OTHER DEFAULTS. Grantor fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of
the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Grantor.
DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Should Borrower or any Grantor default
under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Grantor's property or Grantor's or any
Grantor's ability to repay the Indebtedness or perform their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.
FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Grantor or on Grantor's behalf under this Agreement
or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect,
either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading
at any time thereafter.
DEFECTIVE COLLATERALIZATION. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
time and for any reason.
INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Grantor's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Grantor, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Grantor's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Grantor.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Grantor or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the Indebtedness. This
includes a garnishment of any of Grantor's accounts, including deposit
accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if
there is a good faith dispute by Grantor as to the validity or
reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or
forfeiture proceeding and if Grantor gives Lender written notice of the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a
surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount
determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve
or bond for the dispute.
EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
to any guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party of any of the
Indebtedness or guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party dies or
becomes incompetent or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability
under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness.
ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Grantor's financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Indebtedness is impaired.
CURE PROVISIONS. If any default, other than a default in payment is curable
and if Grantor has not been given a notice of a breach of the same
provision of this Agreement within the preceding twenty-four (24) months,
it may be cured if Grantor, after receiving written notice from Lender
demanding cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15)
days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately
initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be
sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all
reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as
reasonably practical.
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs under this
Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured
party under the Washington Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without
limitation, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following rights and
remedies:
ACCELERATE INDEBTEDNESS. Lender may declare the entire Indebtedness,
including any prepayment penalty which Grantor would be required to pay,
immediately due and payable, without notice of any kind to Grantor.
ASSEMBLE COLLATERAL. Lender may require Grantor to deliver to Lender all or
any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and
other documents relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to
assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be
designated by Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter upon the
property of Grantor to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the
Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time
of repossession, Grantor agrees Lender may take such other goods, provided
that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Grantor after
repossession.
SELL THE COLLATERAL. Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer,
or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in Lender's own
name or that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction
or private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in
value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Lender will
give Grantor, and other persons as required by law, reasonable notice of
the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private
sale or any other disposition of the Collateral is to be made. However, no
notice need be provided to any person who, after Event of Default occurs,
enters into and authenticates an agreement waiving that person's right to
notification of sale. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if
such notice is given at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or
disposition. All expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral,
including without limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring,
preparing for sale and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the
Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with
interest at the Note rate from date of expenditure until repaid.
APPOINT RECEIVER. Lender shall have the right to have a receiver appointed
to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to
protect and preserve the Collateral, to operate the Collateral preceding or
pending foreclosure or sale, and to collect the Rents from the Collateral
and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership,
against the Indebtedness. The receiver may serve without bond if permitted
by law. Lender's right to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether
or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Indebtedness by a
substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not disqualify a person from
serving as a receiver.
COLLECT REVENUES, Apply Accounts. Lender, either itself or through a
receiver, may collect the payments, rents, Income, and revenues from the
Collateral. Lender may at any time in Lender's discretion transfer any
Collateral into Lender's own name or that of Lender's nominee and receive
the payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as
security for the Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the Indebtedness in
such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral
consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments,
chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand,
collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, xxx for, foreclose, or
realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not
Indebtedness or Collateral is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on
behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail and payments are to
be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of
title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of
any Collateral. To facilitate collection, Lender may notify account debtors
and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.
OBTAIN DEFICIENCY. If Lender chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral,
Lender may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining
on the Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received
from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement. Grantor shall
be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction described in this
subsection is a sale of accounts or chattel paper.
COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT
LOAN NO: 00-000000-00 (CONTINUED) PAGE 4
proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or
injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Grantor also shall pay all court costs and such additional fees
as may be directed by the court.
CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Agreement.
GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced
in accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Washington.
This Agreement has been accepted by Lender in the State of Washington.
CHOICE OF VENUE. If there is a lawsuit, Grantor agrees upon Lender's
request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts or King County, State
of Washington.
PREFERENCE PAYMENTS. Any monies Lender pays because of an asserted
preference claim in Grantor's bankruptcy will become a part of the
Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, shall be payable by Grantor as
provided in this Agreement.
NO WAIVER BY LENDER. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Grantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Grantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
NOTICES. Subject to applicable law, and except for notice required or
allowed by law to be given in another manner, any notice required to be
given under this Agreement shall be given in writing, and shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Agreement. Any
party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving
formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of
the notice is to change the party's address. For notice purposes, Grantor
agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Grantor's current address.
Subject to applicable law, and except for notice required or allowed by law
to be given in another manner, if there is more than one Grantor, any
notice given by Lender to any Grantor is deemed to be notice given to all
Grantors.
POWER OF ATTORNEY. Grantor hereby appoints Lender as Grantor's irrevocable
attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any documents necessary to
perfect, amend, or to continue the security interest granted in this
Agreement or to demand termination of filings of other secured parties.
Lender may at any time, and without further authorization from Grantor,
file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of any financing
statement or of this Agreement for use as a financing statement. Grantor
will reimburse Lender for all expenses for the perfection and the
continuation of the perfection of Lender's security interest in the
Collateral.
WAIVER OF CO-OBLIGOR'S RIGHTS. If more than one person is obligated for the
Indebtedness, Grantor irrevocably waives, disclaims and relinquishes all
claims against such other person which Grantor has or would otherwise have
by virtue of payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, specifically
including but not limited to all rights of indemnity, contribution or
exoneration.
SEVERABILITY. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any
circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the
offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal,
valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it
shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required
by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of
this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of
any other provision of this Agreement.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to any limitations stated in this Agreement
on transfer of Grantor's interest, this Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns. If
ownership of the Collateral becomes vested in a person other than Grantor,
Lender, without notice to Grantor, may deal with Grantor's successors with
reference to this Agreement and the Indebtedness by way of forbearance or
extension without releasing Grantor from the obligations of this Agreement
or liability under the Indebtedness.
SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations,
warranties, and agreements made by Grantor in this Agreement shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, shall be continuing in
nature, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as
Grantor's Indebtedness shall be paid in full.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
Agreement.

PRINCIPAL AMOUNT: $2,000,000.00 INITIAL RATE: 4.250% DATE OF NOTE: May 14, 2004
PROMISE TO PAY. Pyramid Breweries Inc. ("Borrower") promises to pay to First
Mutual Bank ("Lender"}, or order, in lawful money of the United States of
America, the principal amount of Two Million & 00/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) or
so much as may be outstanding, together with interest on the unpaid outstanding
principal balance of each advance. Interest shall be calculated from the date of
each advance until repayment of each advance.
PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding principal
plus all accrued unpaid interest on May 14, 2006. In addition, Borrower will pay
regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment
date, beginning July 1, 2004, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on
the same day of each month after that. Unless otherwise agreed or required by
applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest;
then to principal; and then to any late charges. The annual interest rate for
this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the
annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding
principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance
is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at
such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from
time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the prime rate as
published in "The Wall Street Journal" (the "Index"). The Index is not
necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes
unavailable during the term or this loan, Lender may designate a substitute
index after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate
upon Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than
each day following a change in the prime rate as published in The Wall Street
Journal. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as
well. The Index currently is 4.000% per annum. The interest rate to be applied
to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be at a rate of 0.250
percentage points over the Index, resulting in an initial rate of 4.250% per
annum. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be
more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges
are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund
upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as
otherwise required by law. Except for the foregoing, Borrower may pay without
penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early
payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of
Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest.
Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees
not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or
similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without
losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain
obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications
concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument
that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed
or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction
of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: First Mutual Bank, X.X. Xxx
0000, 000 000xx Xxx XX Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged
5.000% of the regularly scheduled payment or $25.00, whichever is greater.
INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final
maturity, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable law,
increase the variable interest rate on this Note to 18.000% per annum. The
interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of
Default") under this Note:
PAYMENT DEFAULT. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this
Note.
OTHER DEFAULTS. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any or the
related documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Borrower.
DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under
any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability
to repay this Note or perform Borrower's obligations under this Note or any
of the related documents.
FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this Note or
the related documents is false or misleading in any material respect,
either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading
at any time thereafter.
INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the loan. This includes
a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts,
with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if
Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
to any guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party of any of the
indebtedness or any guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party
dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or
liability under, any guaranty of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.
In the event of a death, Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be
required to, permit the guarantor's estate to assume unconditionally the
obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner satisfactory to Lender,
and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default.
ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of
this Note is impaired.
CURE PROVISIONS. If any default, other than a default in payment is curable
and if Borrower has not been given a notice of a breach of the same
provision of this Note within the preceding twenty-four (24) months, it may
be cured if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding
cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or
(2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates
steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to
cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and
necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably
practical.

balance on this Note and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, and then

notes, mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, assignments,

LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would
materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to
comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including
but not limited to Borrower's failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts
Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related
Documents, Lender on Borrower's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take
any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to
discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and
other claims, at any time levied or placed on any Collateral and paying all
costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear
interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by
Lender to the date of repayment by Borrower. All such expenses will become a
part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A) be payable on demand;
(B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable

maturity.

AGREEMENTS. Borrower will not enter into any agreement containing any

Borrower's obligations under this Agreement or in connection herewith.
CESSATION OF ADVANCES. If Lender has made any commitment to make any Loan to
Borrower, whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement, Lender
shall have no obligation to make Loan Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if:
(A) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the terms of this Agreement or
any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or any
Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes
incompetent or becomes insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar

change in Borrower's financial condition, in the financial condition of any
BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT (ASSET BASED)
LOAN NO: 00-000000-00 (CONTINUED) PAGE 4
Guarantor, or in the value of any Collateral securing any Loan; or (D) any
Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such
Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other loan with Lender.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law. Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Borrower's accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future.
However, this does not include any XXX or Xxxxx accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the
Indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender's option, to
administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's
charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement:
PAYMENT DEFAULT. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under the
Loan.
OTHER DEFAULTS. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of
the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Borrower.
DEFAULT IN FAVOR OF THIRD PARTIES. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under
any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Borrower's or any Grantor's property or
Borrower's or any Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their
respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related
Documents.
FALSE STATEMENTS. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this
Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or
misleading at any time thereafter.
INSOLVENCY. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.
DEFECTIVE COLLATERALIZATION. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
time and for any reason.
CREDITOR OR FORFEITURE PROCEEDINGS. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes
a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts,
with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if
Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
EVENTS AFFECTING GUARANTOR. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or
becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability
under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness. In the event of a death, Lender,
at its option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor's
estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty
in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of
Default.
ADVERSE CHANGE. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Loan is impaired.
RIGHT TO CURE. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is
curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given
a notice of a similar default within the preceding twenty-four (24) months,
it may be cured if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, after receiving
written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default: (1) cure the
default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than
fifteen (15) days, immediately initiate steps which Lender deems in
Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and
thereafter continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps
sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.
EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where
otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments
and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any
other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make
further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all
Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any
kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights
and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.
ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and warrants that
Financial Statements as described herein also means any and all tax returns
provided to Lender by Borrower or Guarantor.
PENALTY FOR NOT REPORTING FINANCIAL INFORMATION TIMELY. If the Financial
Information which is described in more detail in the Business Loan Agreement or
Commercial Guaranty is not received within ninety (90) days of the due date, the
Lender reserves the right to increase the then current Note rate by one-half
percent (0.50%) per annum, until the required Financial Information is received.
ANNUAL LINE OF CREDIT CLEANUP. Borrower agrees to pay line of credit to $0.00
for 30 consecutive days at least once per loan year (12-month period commencing
on the date of this Note).
AUTOMATIC PAYMENT REQUIREMENT. Borrower agrees to make the monthly loan payments
under the terms of the Promissory Note from a First Mutual Bank deposit account
as long as there is an outstanding balance owed under the terms of the
Promissory Note or in the event the Promissory Note evidences a line of credit.

knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating
to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may
have with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all

repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the
purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the
absolute owners of such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights
granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale
of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of
offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or

constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is

valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it
shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required
