The date and amount of each Revolving Credit Loan and the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of each Revolving Credit Loan may be recorded on the grid schedule annexed to the Revolving Credit Note, and the RLOC Borrower authorizes the Bank to make such recordation; provided, however, that the failure of the Bank to set forth each such Revolving Credit Loan, payment and other information on such grid shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the RLOC Borrower to repay each Revolving Credit Loan made by the Bank in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Credit Note and this Agreement. The Revolving Credit Note and the books and records of the Bank shall constitute conclusive evidence of the information so recorded absent manifest error. The aggregate unpaid amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of the Bank at any time shall be the principal amount owing on the Revolving Credit Note of the RLOC Borrower at such time.

Section 2.3. Real Estate Loan.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the Bank agrees to make a term loan (“Real Estate Loan”) to the RE Borrower on the Closing Date in the amount of Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand ($8,500,000) Dollars. Upon repayment of any principal amount of the Real Estate Loan, the RE Borrower may not re-borrow such amount under the Real Estate Loan.

(b) The Real Estate Loan made by the Bank shall be evidenced by the Real Estate Note payable to the Bank in an original principal amount equal to Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand ($8,500,000) Dollars, appropriately completed, duly executed and delivered on behalf of the RE Borrower, as the same may be amended, supplemented, modified, or restated from time to time (the “Real Estate Note”). The RE Borrower shall be liable for all amounts outstanding under the Real Estate Note. Payments of principal and interest with respect to the Real Estate Loan shall be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Real Estate Note.

(c) Subject to the RE Borrower’s right to contest same in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof, the RE Borrower shall pay all real estate taxes and assessments on or for the Mortgaged Premises prior to delinquency or imposition of a penalty or interest. In addition, the RE Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of such delinquency deliver to the Bank copies of receipts or cancelled checks evidencing the payment of the same. The RE Borrower shall pay all insurance premiums on or for the Mortgaged Premises prior to such premiums becoming due and payable due and shall promptly provide to Bank evidence of such payment. Upon the request of the Bank after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Bank shall have the right to promptly require the RE Borrower to escrow with the Bank sums necessary for the annual payment of (i) the real estate taxes and assessments on or for the Mortgaged Premises (taking into account any discounts) and (ii) insurance premiums for the Mortgaged Premises. To the extent the Bank shall require the RE Borrower to escrow with the Bank sums necessary for the annual payment of the real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums on or for the Mortgaged Premises pursuant to the terms and conditions of this section, in addition to the monthly payments set forth in the Real Estate Note, the RE Borrower shall pay to the Bank on the first (1st) day of each calendar month an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12) of the annual real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums on or for the Mortgaged Premises, as estimated by the Bank in its reasonable discretion, which Bank shall make available to the RE Borrower to pay such real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST RATE; FEES AND PAYMENTS; USE OF PROCEEDS

Section 3.1. Interest Rates.

(a) Base Interest Rates.

(i) Revolving Credit Loan. The Revolving Credit Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus three and one-half (3.50%) percent. The interest rate shall be adjusted pursuant to the Adjustment Protocol.

(ii) Real Estate Credit Loan. The Real Estate Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus two and 39/100 (2.39%) percent. The interest rate shall be adjusted pursuant to the Adjustment Protocol.

(b) Default Interest Rates. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of each Loan, shall, at the option of the Bank, bear interest payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to rate set forth under Section 3.1(a) plus five (5.00%) percent per annum.

(c) Late Charges. A late charge of five (5.00%) percent shall be imposed on each and every payment required hereunder that is not received by Bank within ten (10) days after it is due. The late charge is not a penalty, but liquidated damages to defray administrative and related expenses due to such late payment. The late charge shall be immediately due and payable and shall be paid by the Borrowers to the Bank without notice or demand. This provision for late charge is not and shall not be deemed a grace period, and Bank has no obligation to accept a late payment. Further, the acceptance of a late payment shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default then existing or thereafter arising.

(d) Maximum Allowable Interest Rates. Anything in this Agreement or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Borrowers to make payments of interest shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to be paid to the Bank to the extent that the charging or receipt thereof would not be permissible under the law or laws applicable to the Bank limiting the rates of interest that may be charged or collected by the Bank. In each such event payments of interest required to be paid to the Bank shall be calculated at the highest rate permitted by applicable law until such time as the rates of interest required hereunder may lawfully be charged and collected by the Bank. If the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes would at any time otherwise require payment by the Borrowers to the Bank of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law, the interest payments to the Bank shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the Bank shall not receive interest in excess of such maximum amount. Any amount paid or collected by the Bank as interest which would be in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law shall be deemed applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and not to the payment of interest, but if such Obligations have been or are thereby paid in full, the excess shall be returned to the Borrowers, such application to the principal balance of the Obligations or the refunding of excess to be a complete settlement and acquittance thereof.

(e) Interest Rate Calculations. Interest on each Loan shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and shall be payable for the actual days elapsed. Each determination by the Bank of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes, so long as such determination is made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 3.2. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used by the RLOC Borrower to finance the RLOC Borrower’s general working capital requirements in the ordinary course of business, and the proceeds of the Real Estate Loan shall be used by the RE Borrower to partially fund the purchase of the Mortgaged Premises.

Section 3.3. Prepayments; Termination of Commitment.

(a) The Borrowers may prepay from time to time the then outstanding Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable written notice to the Bank, specifying the date and amount of repayment. If such notice is given, the Borrowers shall make such repayment and the repayment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable, on the date specified therein, together with accrued and unpaid interest to such date on the amount repaid to the Bank. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a notice of prepayment of the Obligations delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or securities offerings, in which case if such condition is not satisfied (i) such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Bank on or prior to the specified effective date) or (ii) with the consent of the Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the repayment date set forth in such notice may be extended.

(b) To the extent that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans exceeds the lesser of the Commitment and the Borrowing Base as then in effect, the RLOC Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days, prepay the Revolving Credit Loans to the extent necessary to cause compliance therewith.

(c) Each prepayment of principal of a Loan pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.

Section 3.4. Fees. The Borrowers shall pay the Bank a one-time facility fee on the Real Estate Loan in the amount of Twenty-One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty ($21,250) Dollars. The Bank acknowledges that Fifteen Thousand ($15,000) Dollars in respect of such fee has previously been paid by the Borrowers.

Section 3.5. Other Events.

(a) In the event that any introduction of or change in, on or after the date hereof, any applicable law, regulation, treaty, order, directive or in the interpretation or application thereof (including, without limitation, any request, guideline or policy, whether or not having the force of law, of or from any central bank or other governmental authority, agency or instrumentality and including, without limitation, Regulation D), by any authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall occur, which: (i) shall subject the Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans, or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder (other than any tax that is measured with respect to the overall net income of the Bank or lending office of the Bank and that is imposed by the United States of America, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or by any jurisdiction in which the Bank’s lending office is located, or by any jurisdiction in which the Bank is organized, has its principal office or is managed and controlled); or (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Bank; or (iii) shall impose on the Bank any other condition, or change therein directly relating to this Agreement, the Notes or the Loans; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Bank of making, renewing or maintaining or participating in advances or extensions of credit hereunder or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, in each case by an amount which the Bank reasonably deems material, then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall pay the Bank, upon demand, such additional amount or amounts as will reimburse the Bank for such increased costs or reduction.

(b) If the Bank shall have determined in its reasonable discretion that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank (or any lending office of the Bank) or the Bank’s holding company, with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of the law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Bank’s capital or on the capital of the Bank’s holding company as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Bank’s policies and the policies of the Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by the Bank to be material, then from time to time, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank, the additional amount or amounts as will reimburse the Bank or the Bank’s holding company for such reduction directly relating to this Agreement, the Notes or the Loans.

(c) A certificate of the Bank prepared in good faith and setting forth the basis and calculation of any such determination, and the amount or amounts payable pursuant to Sections 3.5(a) and 3.5(b) above, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

Section 3.6. Taxes. Except as required by law, all payments made by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding income and franchise taxes imposed on the Bank by (a) the United States of America or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, (b) the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Bank is organized or in which it has its principal office or is managed and controlled or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or (c) any jurisdiction in which the Bank’s lending office is located or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (such non-excluded taxes being called “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Bank hereunder, or under the Notes, the amount so payable to the Bank shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Bank (after payment of all Taxes and free and clear of all liability in respect of such Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and the Notes. If a Borrower fails to pay Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority the Borrowers shall indemnify the Bank for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Bank as a result of any such failure together with any actual expenses payable by the Bank in connection therewith.

Section 3.7. Disbursement of Loans. The Bank shall make the Loans available to the Borrowers by crediting an amount equal to the Loan to the Operating Account designated by Borrowers from time to time, unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties hereto.

Section 3.8. Payments.

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers to the Bank on account of principal, interest, fees and reimbursement obligations shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to the Bank, at the Payment Office of the Bank in Dollars in immediately available funds not later than 4:00 p.m., Ft. Lauderdale, Florida time, on the date on which they are payable.

(b) The Bank may, in its sole discretion while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall not be obligated to, directly charge the Operating Account or one or more of the Borrowers other accounts at the Payment Office or other office of the Bank for all interest and principal payments due in respect of the Loans and all fees payable hereunder. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 9.4. No Waiver of Rights by the Bank. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of the Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the Notes or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 9.5. Submission to Jurisdiction; Jury Waiver. EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA, COUNTY OF MIAMI-DADE, IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT AGAINST IT AND RELATED TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, AND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT BY WAY OF MOTION, AS A DEFENSE OR OTHERWISE, IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY CLAIM THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS, THAT THE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, THAT THE VENUE OF THE SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER, OR THAT THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN OR THEREIN WHERE THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF MAY NOT BE LITIGATED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS. EACH BORROWER AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE UPON IT BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL TO THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY METHOD AUTHORIZED BY THE LAWS OF FLORIDA. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

Section 9.6. Extension of Maturity. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever a payment to be made hereunder shall fall due and payable on any day other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest.

Section 9.7. Modification of Agreement. No modification or amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Document shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank and the Borrowers, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by the Borrowers therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance unless required by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 9.8. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement, the Notes, or in any other Loan Document should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 9.9. Sale of Participations; Assignments. The Bank reserves the right to sell participations in the Loans to such banks, lending institutions or other parties as it may choose with notice to the Borrowers. The Bank reserves the right to sell and assign its rights, duties or obligations with respect to the Loans to such banks, lending institutions or other parties as it may choose but only with the prior written consent of the Borrowers not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that no such consent of the Borrowers shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing). The Bank may furnish any information concerning the Borrowers in its possession from time to time to any assignee or participant (or proposed assignee or participant), provided that the Bank shall notify any such assignee or participant (or proposed assignee or participant) in connection with any contemplated participation in, or assignment of, the Loans, that such information is confidential and shall obtain an agreement from such transferee or participant requiring that such transferee or participant treat such information as confidential and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of same.

Section 9.10. Reinstatement; Certain Payments. If claim is ever made upon the Bank for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by the Bank in payment or on account of any of the Obligations under this Agreement, the Bank shall give prompt notice of such claim to the Borrowers, and if the Bank repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over the Bank or any of its property, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Bank with any such claimant, then and in such event the Borrowers agree that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Borrowers notwithstanding the cancellation of the Notes or other instrument(s) evidencing the Obligations under this Agreement or the termination of this Agreement, and the Borrowers shall be and remain liable to the Bank hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by the Bank.

Section 9.11. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Bank and each other Affiliate of the Bank are each hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any and all the Obligations. The rights of the Bank under this Section 9.11 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which the Bank may have.

Section 9.12. Confidentiality. The Bank agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information relating to the Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Bank on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers, except that such information may be disclosed (a) to any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent, advisor, legal counsel, consultants or other representatives of the Bank, on a confidential basis with, in each case, a need to know such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (c) to the extent requested by any regulatory agency or authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (d) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or which becomes available to the Bank or any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent, advisor, legal counsel, consultants or other representatives of the Bank on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to execution by such Person of an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party to any swap or derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, or (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrowers.

Section 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

Section 9.14. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction of or be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

Section 9.15. Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between, and has been reviewed by, the Borrowers and the Bank and their respective counsel. Accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of each party hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against either the Borrowers or the Bank.

Section 9.16. USA PATRIOT Act; Anti-Money Laundering Legislation. Each Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to the Anti-Terrorism Laws, and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and “know your client” laws, whether within the United States, Canada or elsewhere (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), the Bank may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding Borrowers, their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of Borrowers, and the transactions contemplated hereby. Borrowers shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by the Bank, or any prospective assign or participant of the Bank, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

Section 9.17. Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court it is necessary to convert any amount owing or payable to Bank under this Agreement or any Loan Document from the currency in which it is due (the “Agreed Currency”) into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange applied in that conversion shall be that at which Bank, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the Judgment Currency at or about noon on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrowers in respect of any amount owing or payable under this Agreement to Bank in the Agreed Currency shall, notwithstanding any judgment and payment in the Judgment Currency, be satisfied only to the extent that the Bank, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid at or about noon on the next Business Day following that payment; and if the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Bank could so purchase is less than the amount originally due in the Agreed Currency the Borrowers shall, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment or payment, indemnify Bank against any loss.

Section 9.18. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to principles of conflict or choice of laws.
