THIS AMENDED, RESTATED AND CONSOLIDATED UNSECURED PROMISSORY NOTE (this “Note”) is made and entered into by and between XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXX, an individual (the “Maker”), and ANGION BIOMEDICA CORP., a Delaware corporation (the “Holder”). The Holder is the holder of that certain Unsecured Promissory Note dated January 5, 2009, in the original principal amount of Three Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (USD $300,000) made by the Maker and payable to the Holder (the “2009 Note”). The Maker and the Holder desire to amend, restate and consolidate the 2009 Note in its entirety with the additional sums advanced hereunder and to reflect a change in the interest rate and terms of payment of the 2009 Note.
The Maker, for value received, hereby promises to the order of the Holder, the principal sum of One Million Five Hundred Ninety-Five Thousand Seven Hundred and Seven U.S. Dollars (USD $1,595,707), on December 31, 2019, subject to prepayment, together with interest as set forth in Section 1 below. Both the principal and interest shall be payable at the principal office of the Holder, or at such other location as the Holder may designate.
1. Interest. The outstanding principal amount of this Note shall bear interest annually at a rate of One and 17 hundredths (1.17 %) percent per annum, accruing from the date hereof and continuing until the entire principal amount shall be paid or otherwise satisfied, provided that from and after receipt by the Holder of a declaration of Default pursuant to Section 4.1 below, interest shall accrue at the rate of seven (7%) percent per annum. Interest shall be paid in annual installments, on December 31 of each year, commencing on December 31, 2012, subject to earlier payment pursuant to Section 2 below. For purposes of this Note, a business day shall mean a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day when banking institutions in the State of New York are authorize by law, regulation or order to remain closed.
2. Prepayment.
2.1 Notice of Payment. The Maker may, at his option, upon at least five (5) business days’ prior written notice to the Holder, pay this Note in whole at any time or in part from time to time, without premium or penalty, with any such payment being applied first against any accrued but unpaid interest and then against the outstanding principal amount of this Note. The written notice shall set forth the prepayment date and the principal amount (after payment of accrued interest) to be prepaid.
2.2 Prepayment of Portion of Note. Upon any prepayment of a portion of the principal amount of this Note, the Holder, at its option, (i) may require the Maker to execute and deliver at the expense of the Maker a new Note dated as of the date to which interest on this Note has been paid, and payable to such person or persons as may be designated by the Holder, for the aggregate principal amount of this Note then remaining unpaid, upon surrender of this Note, or (ii) may present this Note to the Maker for notation hereon of the payment of the portion of the principal amount of this Note so prepaid.
2.3 Forgiveness. Upon the death of the Maker or the receipt by the Holder of a written determination of permanent disability (the “Determination”) of the Maker, the outstanding principal and any accrued interest on this Note shall be forgiven and deemed paid in its entirety. For purposes of this Section, the Determination shall be made by a physician licensed in the State of New Jersey or New York, who can be the personal physician for the Maker. The Determination shall set forth the nature of the disability and that for physical or mental reasons the disability has rendered the Maker unable to perform the duties of Chief Executive Officer or President of the Holder to substantially the same extent that he performs those duties as of the date of this Note, and that, in the professional judgment of such physician, by reason of such disability the Maker is not expected to perform those duties to such extent for at least the immediately following six (6) months period.
