following therefor:
“2.7. Continuation
and Conversion of Loans. The Borrower shall have the right at
any time on prior irrevocable written or facsimile notice to the Bank as
specified in Section 2.3: (i) to continue any Loan into a subsequent Interest
Period, (ii) to convert any Loan into another type of Loan (specifying, in the
case of a Libor Rate Loan, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto), and
(iii) to convert any Prime Rate Loan into a Libor Rate Loan (specifying the
Interest Period to be applicable thereto), subject to the
following:
(a) in
the case of a conversion of less than all of the outstanding Revolving Credit
Loans, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans converted shall
not be less than $100,000.00 and shall be an integral multiple
thereof;
(b) no
Loan (other than a Prime Rate Loan) shall be converted at any time other than at

(c) any
portion of a Loan maturing or required to be prepaid in less than one month may

Exhibit

(d) a
Loan subject to an interest rate swap transaction pursuant to the Master
Agreement may not be converted to a Prime Rate Loan; and
(e) no
more than five (5) types of Libor Rate Loans may be outstanding at any one
time.
In the
event that the Borrower shall not give notice to continue any Libor Rate Loan
into a subsequent Interest Period or convert any such Loan, into a Loan of
another type, on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, such Loan (unless
prepaid) shall automatically be converted into a Prime Rate Loan. The
Interest Period applicable to any Libor Rate Loan resulting from a conversion or
continuation shall be specified by the Borrower in the irrevocable notice
delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section and Section 2.3; provided,
however, that, if such notice does not specify either the type of Loan or the
Interest Period to be applicable thereto, the Loan shall automatically be
converted into, or continued as, as the case may be, a Prime Rate Loan until
such required information is furnished pursuant to the terms
hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Term Loan is subject to
an interest rate swap transaction pursuant to the Master Agreement, the Term
Loan will be automatically continued as a Libor Rate Loan with a one month
Interest Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
above, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, no Libor
Rate Loan may be continued into a subsequent Interest Period and no Prime Rate
Loan may be converted into a Libor Rate Loan.”
(E) Section
2.08(a) is amended by deleting the language contained therein and substituting
the following therefor:
“(a) Voluntary. The
Borrower may prepay any Prime Rate Loan in whole or in part without premium or
penalty; provided, however, that each partial prepayment on account of any Prime
Rate Loan shall be in an amount not less than $50,000.00. Except as
provided in Section 2.8(b) or in connection with a termination or reduction of
the Commitment pursuant to Section 2.6, the Borrower may not prepay any Libor
Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor. Any
amount prepaid on account of a Revolving Credit Loan may be reborrowed in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1 hereof. Any prepayment
of the Term Loan subject to an interest rate swap
Exhibit
10.16
transaction
pursuant to the Master Agreement, shall be subject to the provisions of the
Master Agreement.”
(F) Section
2.9 is amended by deleting the language contained therein and substituting the
following therefore:
“2.9. Payments.
(a) Interest
accrued on each Loan shall be payable, without duplication, on:
(i) the
Termination Date;
(ii) with
respect to any portion of any Revolving Credit Loan repaid or Loan prepaid
pursuant to this Agreement, the date of such repayment or prepayment, as the
case may be;
(iii) with
respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount maintained as Prime
Rate Loans, the first day of each month and commencing with the first such date
following the date of the making of such Loans;
(iv) with
respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount maintained as Libor
Rate Loans, the last day of each applicable Interest Period (and, if such
Interest Period for Revolving Credit Loans shall exceed three months, on the
last day of each three-month period occurring during such Interest Period);
and
(v) with
respect to that portion of the outstanding principal amount converted into Prime
Rate Loans or Libor Rate Loans on a day when interest would not otherwise have
been payable pursuant to Sections 2.9(a)(iii) or 2.9(a)(iv), the date of such
conversion.
(b) All
payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of
principal or interest with respect to any Loan or on account of fees or any
other obligations of the Borrower to the Bank hereunder shall be made to the
Bank at the office of the Bank set forth in Section 10.1 hereof or at such other
place as the Bank may from time to time designate in writing in lawful money of
the United States of America in immediately available funds. The
Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank to deduct
Exhibit
10.16
from any
general deposit account of the Borrower the amount of any loan payment including
all payments of interest, principal and other sums due (“Automatic Payment”),
from time to time, under this Agreement and/or any Note; the Bank will
thereafter promptly notify the Borrower of the amount so charged. If
the funds in the account are insufficient to cover any payment due, the Bank
shall not be obligated to advance funds to cover the payment. The failure of the
Bank so to charge any account or to give any such notice shall not affect the
obligation of the Borrower to pay interest, principal or other sums as provided
herein or in any Note, at any time and for any reason the Borrower or the Bank
may voluntarily terminate the Automatic Payment. Termination by the
Borrower of the Automatic Payment must be made by written notice to the
Bank. Subject to the provisions of subparagraph (a) in the definition
of Interest Period set forth in Section 1.1 hereof, if any payment to be so made
hereunder, or under any Note, becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day
and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(c) If
all or a portion of the principal or interest of any Loan shall not be paid when
due (whether at the stated or any accelerated maturity of such Loan) or if any
fee or other amount due hereunder shall not be paid when due, or upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower’s right to select pricing
options shall cease and all Loans, and such interest, fee or amount due
hereunder, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall bear interest
(payable on demand) (i) in all cases other than Libor Rate Loans at the Post
Default Rate until paid and (ii) in the case of Libor Rate Loans at the Post
Default Rate until the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such
Loan, at which time the such Libor Rate Loan will automatically be converted
into a Prime Rate Loan and until paid shall bear interest at the Post Default
Rate. In no event, however, shall interest payable hereunder be in
excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable
law. The obligation to so pay interest upon any reimbursement
obligation of the Borrower to the Bank shall not be construed so as to waive the
requirement for reimbursement on the same date that payment is made by the Bank
as set forth in this Agreement. If a regularly scheduled
payment
Exhibit
10.16
is
fifteen (15) days or more late, the Borrower will be charged five (5.0%) percent
of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment, or $10.00, whichever
is greater.
(d) All
payments received will be applied first to interest, then to fees, and then to
principal.
(e) The
Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Bank to record on the schedule attached
to the Revolving Credit Note the
amount
and date of each Revolving Credit Loan, the rate of interest thereon, the date
and amount of each payment of principal and the unpaid principal balance;
provided, however, that the failure of the Bank to make any such notation shall
not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay any Revolving
Credit Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. All such notations
shall be presumed to be correct.”
(G) Section
2.10 is amended by deleting the language contained therein and substituting the
following therefor:
“2.10. Use of
Proceeds. The proceeds of (i) Revolving Credit Loans hereunder
shall be used to finance working capital requirements of the Borrower and for
general corporate purposes and (ii) the Term Loan shall finance the initial
costs related to a long-term contract with Spirit Aero. No part of the proceeds

entails a violation of any of the Federal Reserve Board Regulations including
Regulations T, U and X.”

the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the
