Paycheck Protection Program Promissory Note and Agreement

1. Parties To Agreement And Acceptance

This Xxxxx Fargo Paycheck Protection Promissory Note and Agreement (“Agreement”) governs the Xxxxx Fargo Paycheck Protection Loan (“Loan”) that Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (“we” or “Lender”) is providing to you (if a sole proprietor) or your business organization, Borrower(s) listed above, (such a sole proprietor or business organization are referred to in this Agreement as “Customer”, “you”, and “your” or “Borrower”) and your designated representatives. The Loan is established under the terms and conditions of the SBA program of the United States Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and the USA CARES Act (2020)(H.R. 748)(15 X.X.X 000 et seq.) (the “Act”) and the availability of the Loan is expressly contingent on funds being available from the SBA under the Act to guaranty this Loan. You agree to be bound by and comply with each and every following term and condition of this Agreement. Lender agrees, based on the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, to make available to Borrower the Loan as more fully described herein.

2. Promise to Pay

Borrower promises to pay to Lender, or order, the principal amount of $118,110, together with interest on the outstanding principal balance. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s address shown in this Agreement or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.

3. Interest

Interest will accrue on the outstanding principal balance at a fixed rate of 1.00%. Interest will be calculated as described in the Interest Accrual Basis paragraph below.

4. Interest Accrual Basis

Interest shall be computed on an actual/365 simple interest basis; that is, by multiplying the applicable interest rate, times the outstanding principal balance, times the actual number of days the principal is outstanding and dividing by a year of 365 days.

5. Repayment

Payments shall be due and payable monthly in the amount of $4,972.58 commencing 11/06/2020 and continuing on Day 08 of each month thereafter until maturity. The Loan shall mature two (2) years from the date of this Agreement 05/08/2022, at which time all unpaid principal, accrued interest, and any other unpaid amounts shall be due and payable in full. Unless otherwise agreed, all sums received from Borrower may be applied to interest, fees, principal, or any other amounts due to Lender in any order at Lender’s sole discretion.

As discussed further herein, the Borrower may apply for the loan to be forgiven in whole or in part.

If any portion of the principal and/or interest payments are forgiven by the Lender, upon forgiveness, the remaining balance of the loan will be reamortized over the remaining term with the entire principal balance remaining unpaid, along with all accrued and unpaid interest, due and payable upon the Maturity Date.

6. Permissible Use

The Account will be used for only for purposes authorized by the Act, specifically the Paycheck Protection Program contained within such Act.

In no event shall the Loan be used for any transaction that is illegal under any applicable law. You represent that you (if a sole proprietor) and your business organization are not a Money Service Business as defined by federal law, or have identified yourself to Lender as such a business and have complied with all applicable laws, rules and regulations governing such businesses.

7. Forgiveness

The Borrower will not be responsible for any loan payment if Borrower provides to Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, sufficient documentation that (i) the Borrower used all of the loan proceeds for forgivable purposes described below and (ii) employee and compensation levels are maintained.

The actual amount of loan forgiveness will depend, in part, on the total amount of payroll costs, payments of interest on mortgage obligations incurred before February 15, 2020, rent payments on leases dated before February 15, 2020, and utility payments under service agreements dated before February 15, 2020, over the eight-week period following the date of the loan. Not more than 25 percent of the loan forgiveness amount may be attributable to non-payroll costs. The following is an exhaustive list of forgivable purposes:

payroll costs (as defined in the Act and in 2.f.);

costs related to the continuation of group health care benefits during periods of paid sick, medical, or family leave, and insurance premiums;

mortgage interest payments (but not mortgage prepayments or principal payments);

rent payments;

utility payments;

interest payments on any other debt obligations that were incurred before February 15, 2020; and/or

refinancing an SBA EIDL loan made between January 31, 2020 and April 3, 2020.

8. Late Charges

For each payment of principal, interest, and/or fees which has not been paid in full within fifteen days after its date due, Borrower will pay to Lender a late charge of $15.00 or five percent (5%) of the amount due, whichever is greater. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the amount of this late fee is reasonable with respect to this Loan, taking into account Lender’s expectation of timely receipt of payments with regard to the favorable pricing of this Loan, and the operational, administrative and regulatory burdens flowing from late payments and delinquencies. To the extent this late fee or any other fee or charge set forth in this Agreement may be prohibited or exceed any limit provided by any present or future applicable law, such fee or charge shall be reduced to the maximum amount allowed.

9. Prepayment

Borrower may prepay principal of the Loan at any time, in any amount, without penalty.

10. Default

The following constitute defaults under this Agreement:

a payment is not made when it is due;

the terms of this Agreement are breached in any way;

Customer defaults under the terms of any other obligation to Lender;

a bankruptcy petition is filed by or against Customer or any of Customer’s owners;

a significant change occurs in the ownership or organizational structure of Customer or in the type or volume of such Customer’s business or the death of a Customer;

Customer becomes insolvent or is dissolved, or Lender otherwise believes in good faith that the prospect of payment and/or performance under this Agreement;

payments to the Loan are returned or reversed for any reason;

Customer fails to submit required information the Lender deems necessary.

11. Remedies

In the event of any Default or failure to meet any condition under the preceding paragraphs, or upon any termination of a Loan, Lender may, at its option and without prior notification:

close any and all Loans to all use, as well as any other accounts for which the Customer is liable to Lender;

accelerate payment of the full balance on any or all Loans as well as any or all other accounts for which the Customer is liable to Lender, and thereby require immediate payment of the full balance, including, without limitation any Late Charges or any other charges or fees of any kind due Lender.

21. ARBITRATION

Binding Arbitration: The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit any dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 19 (the “Arbitration Program”). Arbitration may be demanded before the institution of a judicial proceeding, or during a judicial proceeding, but not more than 60 days after service of a complaint, third party complaint, cross-claim, or any answer thereto, or any amendment to any of such pleadings. A “Dispute” shall include any dispute, claim, or controversy of any kind, in contract or in tort, legal or equitable, now existing or hereafter arising, relating in any way to any aspect of this agreement, or any other agreement, document or instrument to which this Arbitration Program is attached or in which it appears or is referenced, or any related agreements, documents or instruments or any renewal, extension, modification, or refinancing of any indebtedness or obligation relating to the foregoing, including without limitation, their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default, or termination. This provision is a material inducement for the parties entering into the transactions relating to this Agreement, DISPUTES SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION ARE NOT RESOLVED IN COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROGRAM.

Governing Rules: Any arbitration proceeding will: (i) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (ii) be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees, and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Arbitration proceedings hereunder shall be conducted at a location mutually agreeable to the parties, or if they cannot agree, then at a location selected by the AAA in the state of South Dakota. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a lender of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.

No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help, and Foreclosure: The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to: (i) foreclose against any real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercising self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in section (i), (ii), and (iii) of this paragraph.

Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers: Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any Dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. Every arbitrator must be a neutral practicing attorney or a retired member of the state or federal judiciary, in either case with a minimum of ten years’ experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the Dispute. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all Disputes in accordance with the applicable substantive law and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the applicable state rules of civil procedure, or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

Discovery: In any arbitration proceeding discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the Dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

Class Proceedings and Consolidations: No party shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties to this Agreement, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity.

Miscellaneous: To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators, and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the Dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a Dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the documents between the parties or the subject matter of the Dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive the repayment of the obligations that are the subject of this agreement and the termination, amendment, or expiration of any of the documents or any relationship between the parties.

SBA Arbitration: The parties specifically agree that the provisions of the Arbitration Program set forth above are not applicable to any dispute between any party and the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”), including but not limited to, any dispute with the SBA after purchase of the loan by the SBA.

22. SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (SBA)
