FORM OF PROMISSORY NOTE
$250,000.00 Cincinnati, Ohio
(to be adjusted as hereinafter set forth) February _____, 2001
1. FOR VALUE RECEIVED, XXXXXXX COMPUTER RESOURCES, INC., a Delaware
corporation (hereinafter, together with its successors in title and assigns,
called the "Borrower") does hereby absolutely and unconditionally promise to pay
to the order of OSAGE SYSTEMS GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Lender"),
the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (as may be adjusted
in the manner hereinafter set forth), together with interest on the outstanding
principal balance from the date hereof, at the rate specified below.
2. The initial face amount of this note, Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000.00), shall be adjusted by any amounts that Borrower, or its wholly
owned subsidiary, Xxxxxxx Select Integration Solutions, Inc., may be required to
pay pursuant to the provisions of Sections 1.6, 2.2 or 2.3 of the Asset Purchase
Agreement. In addition, the face amount of such note shall be reduced by
Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000.00) (but not below zero) for each of the
executive and upper management employees of Lender designated on a list to be
countersigned by Xxxxxxx, PSIS and the Lender, (the "Management List") and shall
be reduced by Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500.00) (but not below
zero) for each of the other employees of Lender, designated on a list to be
countersigned by Xxxxxxx, PSIS and the Lender (the "Non-Management Employee
List"), who were hired by Borrower upon the closing of the Asset Purchase
Agreement, if he or she shall leave the employment of Borrower or its wholly
owned subsidiary, Xxxxxxx Select Integration Solutions, Inc. within ninety (90)
days of the Closing Date. Provided said offset shall not be applicable for an
employee in the event the employment of such individual is terminated because of
the death or disability of said individual during said ninety (90) day period,
or in the event that the employment of said individual's should be terminated
prior to the expiration of such ninety (90) day period without cause. The
Management List and the Non-Management Employee List shall be kept confidential
except to the extent that an order of the Bankruptcy Court or other applicable
law requires disclosure thereof.
3. Interest shall accrue at the prime rate of Chase Manhattan Bank as of the
date of Closing. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Note and the
entire principal balance shall be due and payable ninety (90) days from Closing.
4. All payments received hereunder shall be applied first to interest and
then to principal.
5. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the entire principal amount
outstanding under this Note, and accrued interest thereon, shall at once become
due and payable, at the option of the Lender and the Lender shall have the
1
remedies set forth in the Asset Purchase Documents. During the continuance of
any Event of Default, all principal evidenced by this Note (whether for
principal or otherwise) shall (to the extent permitted by applicable law) bear
interest at the annual rate of twelve percent (12%). The unpaid interest
accrued during the continuation of any Event of Default on the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note (whether for principal or otherwise) in accordance with
the foregoing terms of this paragraph shall become and be absolutely due and
payable by the Borrower to the Lender hereof on demand by the Lender of this
Note at any time. Interest will continue to accrue on all indebtedness
evidenced hereby until the Event of Default shall be cured or otherwise
remedied.
6. This Note is issued pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of
the Asset Purchase Agreement. This Note is subject to all terms and conditions
set forth in the Asset Purchase Documents, including, but not limited to, terms
of default and rights of acceleration, if any. Any holder of this Note is
subject to all claims and defenses which the Borrower could pursue against
Lender under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
7. When this Note becomes due, by acceleration or otherwise, the Lender may,
at its option, demand, xxx for, collect or make any compromise or settlement it
deems desirable with reference to property held as security herefor. The
failure to exercise any option, to declare the maturity hereof, or to exercise
any other rights under any of the covenants or conditions contained in the Asset
Purchase Documents shall not be taken or deemed to be a waiver of the right to
exercise such option or to declare such maturity after any subsequent violation
of any such covenants or conditions. All remedies provided for herein upon any
default by the Borrower shall be cumulative and not exclusive.
8. Notwithstanding the above, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement,
Lender made certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements with
and to the Borrower. Lender agrees that if the Borrower is entitled to
indemnification from the Lender under the Asset Purchase Agreement or any other
of the Asset Purchase Documents, the amount of such indemnification due from
Lender may be set off against the amounts payable hereunder if permitted under
the Asset Purchase Agreement, being first applied to interest and the
withholding all or any part of payment due hereunder as a result of such a set
off shall not be considered an Event of Default hereunder. Lender agrees that
the amount to which the Borrower may be entitled to recover from Lender shall
not be limited by either the amount paid or due to be paid to Lender hereunder
or by the terms of this Note but shall be governed by the terms of the Asset
Purchase Documents.
9. The provisions of this Note and the obligations of the Borrower hereunder
shall in all respects be governed by and interpreted and determined in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware.
10. The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives notice of
acceptance, presentment, notice of nonpayment (except as provided herein),
protest, notice of protest, suit and all other conditions precedent in
connection with the delivery, acceptance, collection and/or enforcement of this
Note.
11. Should all or any part of the indebtedness represented by this Note be
collected by action in law, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other
court proceedings, or should this Note be placed in the hands of attorneys for
collection after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby
promises to pay to the Lender of this Note, upon demand by the Lender hereof at
any time, in addition to principal and all (if any) other amounts payable on or
in respect of this Note or the indebtedness evidenced hereby, all court costs
and reasonable attorneys' fees and all other reasonable collection charges and
expenses incurred or sustained by the Lender of this Note.
12. If for any circumstances whatsoever, the fulfillment of any provision of
this Note involves transcending the limit of validity prescribed by any
applicable usury statute or any other applicable law with regard to obligations
of like character and amount, then the obligation to be fulfilled will be
reduced to the limit of such validity as provided in such statute of law, so
that in no event shall any exaction of interest be possible under this Note in
excess of the limit of such validity. In no event shall the Borrower be bound
to pay interest of more than the legal limit for the use, forbearance or
detention of money, and the right to demand any such excess is hereby expressly
waived by the Lender.
13. No delay or omission of the holder of this Note to exercise any right or
power arising from any default shall impair any such right or power or be
considered to be a waiver of any such default or any acquiescence therein, nor
shall the action or non-action of the holder in case of default on the part of
the Borrower impair any right or power resulting therefrom.
14. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings,
respectively:
(a) "Asset Purchase Agreement" - The Asset Purchase Agreement by and
between the Borrower and the Lender dated February _____, 2001.
(b) "Asset Purchase Documents" - The Asset Purchase Agreement and all
Exhibits thereto (except for any employment agreements and all noncompetition
agreements, other than the one provided by Lender) by and between the parties to
the Asset Purchase Agreement.
(c) "Event of Default" -
(i) The failure of Borrower to make any payment of principal or
interest due under this Note for a period of ten (10) days after receipt of
written notice from the Lender to the Borrower that such installment has not
been paid.
