a
California corporation (“Maker”) promises to pay to SANTA
XXXXXX BANK,
a
California banking corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Bank”), on order, at
0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000-0000 or such other place
as
may be designated in writing by the holder of this Secured Promissory Note
(hereinafter referred to as this “Note”), the principal sum of Nine Hundred
Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($900000.00), or such lesser amount as may be
outstanding from time to time, together with interest accrued thereon. This
Note
evidences revolving advances made by Bank to Maker pursuant to
Sections 2.1A of that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security
Agreement, of even date herewith, between Bank and Maker, as amended from time
to time (the “Loan Agreement”).
2. INTEREST.
Commencing on the date hereof the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall
bear interest at a rate two (2.00) percentage points in excess of the prime
rate
of interest (the highest variable rate of interest, per annum, published daily
as the “prime rate” in the Money Rates Section of the Western Edition of the
Wall Street Journal - hereinafter referred to as the “Prime Rate”). In the event
that such a rate is no longer published, then the “Prime Rate” shall mean the
variable rate of interest, per annum, most recently announced by Bank at its
office in Santa Xxxxxx, as its “prime rate”, with the understanding that Bank’s
“prime rate” is one of its base rates and serves as a basis upon which effective
rates of interest are calculated for loans making reference thereto and may
not
be the lowest of Bank’s base rates). In the event that any installment required
pursuant to Section 3 of this Note is not paid when due, or any other default
occurs under the terms of this Note, and without affecting any of Bank’s rights
and remedies provided herein, the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall
thereafter bear interest at a rate seven (7.00) percentage points above the
Prime Rate. In the event that the Prime Rate is, from time to time hereafter,
changed, adjustments in the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be made
as
of 12:01 A.M. on the effective date of the change in the Prime Rate. Interest
chargeable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty
(360) day year for actual days elapsed.
3. PAYMENT.
Principal and interest shall be due and payable on the dates and in the manner
as follows:
(a) Commencing
on the first (1st) day of October, 1999, and continuing on the same day of
each
and every calendar month thereafter, Maker shall make monthly payments of
interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance hereof,
(b) Commencing
on the first (1st)
day of
October, 1999, and continuing on the same day of each and every calendar month
thereafter, Maker shall make a monthly principal payment in the amount of
Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00).
(c) On
the
first (1st) day of February, 2000, Maker shall make payment in full of the
unpaid principal balance hereof remaining unpaid on such date, together with
any
and all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder.
4. REDUCTION
IN THE MAXIMUM CREDIT LINE. The monthly installments of principal required
under
Section 3b of this Note shall constitute a permanent reduction in the
Maximum Credit Line (as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement). Maker
shall
not be entitled to reborrow the installment payments made pursuant to such
Section.
5. PREPAYMENT.
Maker may prepay all or part of the principal balance due under this Note,
without premium or penalty. With each prepayment Maker shall also pay the
interest accrued on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of such
prepayment. So long as not event of default shall have occurred under the Loan
Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Note, Maker may
request advances from Bank following the prepayment of any amounts
hereunder.
6. COMPOUND
INTEREST. Interest not paid when due may be added to the unpaid principal
balance hereof and shall thereafter bear interest at the same rate as principal.
All payments hereunder are to be applied first to the payment of accrued
interest and the balance remaining applied to the payment of principal. All
principal and interest due hereunder is payable in lawful money of the United
States of America.
7. LATE
CHARGE. If a payment of principal or interest is ten (10) days or more late,
Maker will be charged five percent (5.00%) of the amount of such payment. The
late charge payable by Maker hereunder is in addition to, and not in lieu of,
all other rights and remedies of Bank.
8. WAIVERS.
Maker, for itself, its legal representatives, successors and assigns, expressly
waives presentment, protest, demand, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment,
notice of maturity, notice of protest, presentment for the purpose of
accelerating maturity, and diligence in collection, and consents that Bank
may
extend the time for payment or otherwise modify the terms of payment of any
part
or the whole of the debt evidenced hereby. To the fullest extent permitted
by
law, Maker waives the statute of limitations in any action brought by Bank
in
connection with this Note.
9. ACCELERATION.
IT IS EXPRESSLY AGREED THAT UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER
THE TERMS OR CONDITIONS OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT, THEN THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCE
OF THIS NOTE, TOGETHER WITH INTEREST ACCRUED THEREON, SHALL THEREUPON BE
IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE AT THE OPTION OF THE HOLDER HEREOF, WITHOUT
