(C) Except as previously or agreed to be waived by the Bank in writing, or as noted in Schedule “A” attached hereto, there is outstanding no Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time, would constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, as of the effective date of and after giving effect to this First Amendment; and

EXHIBIT A
AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE
| $3,000,000 | Cincinnati, Ohio |
| November 5, 2021 |
XXXXXXXX IM FUNDS, INC., a Wisconsin corporation (the "Borrower"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the "Bank"), or its successors or assigns, on or before November 4, 2022 or such earlier date specified in the Loan Agreement as the Maturity Date (the "Maturity Date"), the principal sum of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000), or such portion thereof as may be outstanding from time to time as Loans to the Borrower under the hereinafter-described Loan Agreement, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided.
This Amended and Restated Note is the "Amended and Restated Promissory Note" to which reference is made in the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith with respect to the Xxxxxxxx XxxXxx Fund (the "Fund") between the Borrower and the Bank (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement") and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof, including without limitation the terms thereof providing for acceleration of maturity of the loans made by the Bank to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement and evidenced by this Note (the "Loans").
This Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate which interest shall be payable to the Bank monthly, in arrears, commencing on December 1, 2021 and on the 1st day of each month thereafter, and on the date specified in clause (b) of the definition of Maturity Date; provided that the Borrower may at its option pay such interest whenever all or any part of the Loans are due and payable, whether on the Maturity Date, by virtue of a mandatory prepayment, or by reason of demand, acceleration or otherwise (on the amount so due and payable) and whenever the Borrower repays all or part of the Loans as a voluntary prepayment. Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.
As used herein, the term "Prime Rate" shall mean the rate which the Bank announces as its prime lending rate, as in effect from time to time. The Prime Rate is determined solely by the Bank pursuant to market factors and its own operating needs and does not necessarily represent the lowest or best rate actually charged to any customer. The Bank may make commercial or other loans at rates of interest at, above or below the Prime Rate.
The principal of this Note is subject to mandatory prepayments, as follows: (i) if the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding exceeds the Available
| - 6 - |
Facility at any time, such excess shall be immediately due and payable, and (ii) the principal of this Note shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date and, if earlier, the date on which the Loans become due, whether by virtue of demand, acceleration or otherwise. This Note may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time, without premium or penalty; provided, however that each prepayment of principal shall be in an amount equal to, or greater than, $1,000.00 or, if less, the outstanding balance of this Note.
If any payment is not made within ten (10) days after the date due, the Borrower shall pay the Bank an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such payment or $50.00, whichever is greater.
An "Event of Default" as described in the Loan Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank shall have all rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Agreement and otherwise available at law or in equity. At the option of the Bank, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, this Note shall bear interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest prior to the occurrence of such Event of Default) payable on demand at a rate equal to three percent (3%) per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate.
All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the Bank at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000, M.L. CN-OH-W6TC, or at such other place as may be designated by the holder hereof to the Borrower in writing. The Borrower authorizes the Bank to charge any account, in the name of the Fund, or charge or increase any loan balance of the Borrower at the Bank for the amount of any interest or principal payments due to the Bank hereunder. The Bank is further authorized by the Borrower to enter from time to time the balance of this Note and all payments thereon on the reverse of this Note or in the Bank's regularly maintained data processing records, and the aggregate unpaid amount set forth thereon or therein shall be presumptive evidence of the amount owing to the Bank and unpaid on this Note, absent manifest error.
If any term or condition of this Note conflicts with the express terms or conditions of the Loan Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement shall control. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as in the Loan Agreement.
IMPORTANT: This Note shall be deemed made in Ohio and shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, including all matters of construction, validity and performance.
Without limitation on the ability of the Bank to exercise all of its rights or to initiate and prosecute any action or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction related to loan repayment, the Borrower and the Bank agree that any action or proceeding commenced by or on behalf of the parties arising out of or relating to this Note shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, or any other court of applicable jurisdiction located in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Borrower and the Bank also agree that a summons and complaint commencing
| - 7 - |
an action or proceeding in any such Ohio courts by or on behalf of such parties shall be properly served and shall confer personal jurisdiction on a party to which said party consents, (i) if served personally or by registered or certified mail to the other party at any of its addresses noted herein, or (ii) as otherwise provided under the laws of the State of Ohio. The Borrower and the Bank hereby waive all rights to trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or related to this Note. The interest rate and all other terms of this Note negotiated with the Borrower are, in part, related to the aforesaid provisions on jurisdiction, which the Bank deems a vital part of this loan arrangement.
Presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand, notice of protest and all other notices are hereby waived.
The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers any attorney-at-law to appear for the Borrower in any action upon or in connection with this Note at any time after the Loans and/or other obligations of the Borrower evidenced hereby become due, as herein provided, in any court in or of the State of Ohio or elsewhere, and waives the issuance and service of process with respect thereto, and irrevocably authorizes and empowers any such attorney-at-law to confess judgment in favor of the Bank against the Borrower in the amount due thereon or hereon, plus interest as herein provided, and all costs of collection, and waives and releases all errors in any said proceedings and judgments and all rights of appeal from the judgment rendered. The Borrower agrees and consents that the attorney confessing judgment on behalf of the Borrower hereunder may also be counsel to the Bank and/or the Bank’s affiliates, and the Borrower hereby further waives any conflict of interest which might otherwise arise and consents to the Bank paying such confessing attorney a legal fee or allowing such attorneys’ fees to be paid from proceeds of collection of this Note and/or any and all collateral and security for the Loans and obligations.
WARNING--BY SIGNING THIS PAPER YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO NOTICE AND COURT TRIAL. IF YOU DO NOT PAY ON TIME A COURT JUDGMENT MAY BE TAKEN AGAINST YOU WITHOUT YOUR PRIOR KNOWLEDGE AND THE POWERS OF A COURT CAN BE USED TO COLLECT FROM YOU REGARDLESS OF ANY CLAIMS YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST THE BANK.
