The Lenders and Agent have assigned their interests in the Loan Agreement to Lender hereunder.
i. “Loan Fee” means $300,000. The Loan Fee is in lieu of any other fees on the Loan.
j. “New Facility” means a new senior credit facility for Borrower with a firm commitment to loan at least $15 million against existing assets and receivables at an interest rate of not more than LIBOR plus 7% with terms and lender fees that are customary and reasonably comparable in amount and scope to other similar companies in the entertainment industry and that is entered into after the Effective Date.
k. “Outstanding Balance” means the outstanding principal balance of the Loan plus all accrued interest thereon.
2. Amendments. The Loan Agreement is hereby amended in the manner set forth below:
a. Commitment. The aggregate Commitment shall be $20 million, which shall be paid in full as of the Effective Date (or, if later, the date of actual execution hereof). The Loan shall no longer be a revolving Loan.
b. Loans. The amount of the Loans shall include (i) all amounts paid by Lender to acquire the Loan Agreement from the prior lenders ($14,403,378), (ii) $90,000 of costs incurred by Lender in connection with entering into this transaction, (iii) the Loan Fee, and (iv) a further loan to Borrower on the Effective Date in the amount of $5,206,622 ($20 million less the amounts set forth in clauses (i)-(iii)).
c. Interest Rate. The base interest rate under the Loan shall be 5% per annum, compounded annually, with all interest for any calendar year becoming due on the first day of that calendar year (with interest for calendar year 2005 becoming due on the Effective Date). For example, since the Effective Date is July 26, 2005, interest for 2005 will be $435,616 ($20 million x 5% x 159 days / 365 days), effective as of the Effective Date. On January 1, 2006, additional interest of $1,021,781 would be owed (the sum of $20 million plus prior interest of $435,616 x 5%), even if the Loan were repaid on January 2, 2006. This interest rate is subject to the usury savings clause of Section 2.4(d) of the Loan Agreement.
d. Commitment Termination Date. The Commitment Termination Date (the maturity date for the Loan) shall be July 26, 2007. Barring an Event of Default (which is covered by Paragraph 2(i) below), no payment of principal or interest shall be owed on the Loan until such Commitment Termination Date. No prepayments shall be permitted without the consent of Lender.
e. Conversion
(i) Lender shall have the election at any time to convert the Outstanding Balance into Common Stock at the Conversion Price on an all-or-nothing basis.
(ii) Upon satisfaction of both Conditions Precedent, the Outstanding Balance shall automatically convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price.
f. Note. Upon the Effective Date, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender the Promissory Note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
g. Subordination. Lender agrees that it shall subordinate the Loan and all security therefore to the New Facility on terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the lending institution of the New Facility.
h. Covenants. The following Sections from the Loan Agreement are hereby deleted: 5.1, 5.7, 5.10, 5.12, 5.15-22, 5.24-26, 6.1, 6.4, and 6.6-27.
i. Acceleration. The only Events of Default under the Loan Agreement shall be material breaches of the remaining Affirmative and Negative Covenants from Sections 5 and 6 of the Loan Agreement. In no event will anything disclosed in any disclosure schedules relating to the merger of Capital Entertainment Enterprises, Inc. into FLM Acquisition Corp be treated as giving rise to an Event of Default. For all such Events of Default that are capable of cure, the Company shall have six months to cure the Event of Default (in lieu of the period set forth in the Loan Agreement) commencing from the date of notice by Lender to Company of the Event of Default, and if it is not cured by that time the Outstanding Balance shall become immediately due and payable three months after that date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan shall become immediately due and payable upon any involuntary petition in bankruptcy against Borrower that is not dismissed within 60 days or any voluntary petition in bankruptcy filed by Borrower.
j. Agent. PFLM shall be the “Agent” for itself under the Loan.
k. Security. The security under the Loan shall be for the benefit of PFLM as holder of the Loan.
