RATE PROVISIONS
Section
3.1. Interest Rate
Determination. The Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid
principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, until maturity, at a
rate per annum (calculated based on a year of 360 days in each case for the
actual days elapsed) as follows:
(a) The
principal balance of the Loan from time to time outstanding shall bear interest
at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) with respect to any LIBOR Rate
Portion, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, and with respect to any Base Rate Portion, the
Base Rate, as the case may be, with respect thereto or (ii) the Highest
Lawful Rate, from the day of Advance to, but not including, (y) with
respect to any Base Rate Portion, the Maturity Date and (z) with respect to
any LIBOR Rate Portion, the Expiration Date of the Rate Period then in effect
with respect thereto.
(b) So
long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower
may at any time prior to the applicable Maturity Date (y) change the
interest rates to apply to all or any portion of the Loan or (z) elect to
continue all or any part of the outstanding principal balance of any LIBOR Rate
Portion as portions of such Type by giving Lender an irrevocable written notice
in the form of Exhibit C hereto
(the “Notice of Rate
Change/Continuation”) specifying (i) the date on which the
applicable LIBOR Rate Portion or Base Rate Portion was made; (ii) the
interest rate then applicable to such LIBOR Rate Portion or Base Rate Portion;

applicable to each such LIBOR Rate Portion; (iv) the principal amount of
such LIBOR Rate Portion to remain outstanding; and (v) the requested
effective date of the rate change or continuation (the “Conversion/Continuation
Date”). In the case of the conversion of all or any part of
any Base Rate Portion into a LIBOR Rate Portion or the continuation of any LIBOR
Rate Portion, (x) such notice must be received by Lender at least three (3)
full Business Days prior to the Conversion/Continuation Date, and otherwise at
least one (1) full Business Day prior thereto, and (y) in either case such LIBOR
Rate Portion shall be in an aggregate principal amount greater than or equal to

Change/Continuation. Each Notice of Rate Change/Continuation shall be
irrevocable.

(c) If
Borrower shall fail to choose, as provided in subsection (b) above, the rate of
interest to become effective with respect to any LIBOR Rate Portions upon the
Expiration Date of the Rate Period with respect thereto, such portion of the
Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate on and after such Expiration Date
until Borrower shall have so chosen a different rate.
(d) Nothing
contained herein shall authorize Borrower (i) to convert any Base Rate
Portion into or continue any LIBOR Rate Portion as a LIBOR Rate Portion unless
the Expiration Date of the Rate Period for the new LIBOR Rate Portion occurs on
or before the Maturity Date, (ii) to continue or change the interest rates
applicable to any LIBOR Rate Portions prior to the Expiration Date of the Rate
Period with respect thereto, or (iii) to convert any Base Rate Portion into a
LIBOR Rate Portion or to continue any LIBOR Rate Portion if a Default or an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(e) Notwithstanding
anything set forth herein to the contrary (other than Section 11.12), if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing the Loan shall bear interest at
a rate per annum which shall be equal to the lesser of (i) 3% above the
Base Rate or (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, which interest shall be due and
payable on demand.
Section
3.2. Additional Interest Rate
Provisions.
(a) Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time Lender
determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that
the introduction of or any change in any Governmental Regulation by any
Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof
shall make it unlawful for Lender to maintain or fund any LIBOR Rate Portion or
to convert any Base Rate Portion into, or to continue, any LIBOR Rate Portion
hereunder, Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to
Borrower. With respect to any LIBOR Rate Portion which is outstanding
when Lender so notifies Borrower, upon such date as shall be specified in such
notice, the Rate Period shall end and the lesser of (i) the Base Rate or
(ii) the Highest Lawful Rate shall commence to apply in lieu of the
Adjusted LIBOR Rate in respect of such portion of the Loan. At least
five (5) Business Days after such specified date, Borrower shall pay to Lender
(y) accrued and unpaid interest on each affected LIBOR Rate Portion at the
Adjusted LIBOR Rate in effect at the time of such notice to but not including
such specified date plus (z) such amount or amounts (to the extent that
such amount or amounts would not be usurious under applicable Governmental
Regulation) as may be necessary to compensate Lender for any costs and losses
incurred by it, but otherwise without penalty. If notice has been
given by Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2,
then, unless and until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
apply, such Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall not again apply to any portion of the Loan
and the obligation of Lender to convert any portion of the Loan into, or to
continue, any LIBOR Rate Portion as, a LIBOR Rate Portion shall be
suspended.

Date or a Conversion/Continuation Date, as the case may be, if such payment or
prepayment prevents the proposed borrowing from becoming fully effective; or

compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or
receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to the Loan shall not
constitute a waiver of Lender’s rights to demand compensation for any increased
costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on
capital with respect to the Loan.
Section

of principal, interest or other amounts made on or in respect of the Loan when
the interest rate is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate, or

any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which Lender is organized
or doing business (all such non-excluded taxes, deductions, charges,

to Section 11.12 hereof, if Borrower shall be required by Governmental
Regulation to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder
or under the Note to Lender (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may
be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.7) Lender
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and
(iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation
authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Governmental
Regulation. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall confirm that all
applicable Taxes, if any, imposed on it by virtue of the transactions under this

shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest;

(a) All
covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of Borrower, its Subsidiaries
or Lender contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall bind
and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and permitted
assigns. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary may assign or transfer

(b) Lender
may sell participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions in

(c) Notwithstanding
any other provision herein, Lender may, in connection with any assignment or

Section
11.12. Interest. All
agreements between Borrower and Lender, whether now existing or hereafter
arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no
contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of demand being made on the
Note or otherwise, shall the amount contracted for, charged, reserved or
received by Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money to be
loaned under this Agreement or otherwise or for the payment or performance of
any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other Loan Document exceed
the Highest Lawful Rate. If, as a result of any circumstances
whatsoever, fulfillment by Borrower of any provision hereof or of any of such
documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve
transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable usury law or result
in Lender having or being deemed to have contracted for, charged, reserved or
received interest (or amounts deemed to be interest) in excess of the maximum
lawful rate or amount of interest allowed by applicable law to be so contracted
for, charged, reserved or received by Lender, then, ipso facto, the obligation
to be fulfilled by Borrower shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and
if, from any such circumstance, Lender shall ever receive interest or anything
which might be deemed interest under applicable law which would exceed the
Highest Lawful Rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be
refunded to Borrower, or, to the extent (i) permitted by applicable law and
(ii) such excessive interest does not exceed the unpaid principal balance
of the Note and the amounts owing on other Obligations of Borrower to Lender
under any Loan Document, applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing
on account of the Note or the amounts owing on other Obligations of Borrower to
Lender under any Loan Document and not to the payment of
interest. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use,
forbearance, or detention of the indebtedness of Borrower to Lender shall, to
the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and
spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full of
the principal thereof (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof)
so that the interest on account of such indebtedness shall not exceed the
Highest Lawful Rate. The terms and provisions of this
Section 11.12 shall control and supersede every other provision hereof and
of all other agreements between Borrower and Lender. Borrower and
Lender agree that Chapter 15 of the Texas Credit Code shall not apply to
this Agreement, the Note, the Loan or the Commitment.

FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, TYLER TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Undersigned”),
promises to pay to the order of BANK OF TEXAS, N.A., a national banking
association, and any successors and assigns (the “Payee”), at 0000
Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, the principal sum of Twenty Five
Million and no/100 Dollars ($25,000,000) (or the unpaid balance of all principal
advanced under this Note, if that amount is less) together with interest on the
unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding, as
hereinafter provided. All capitalized terms herein, unless otherwise
defined, shall have the same definitions as those found in that certain Second
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and between the Undersigned and Payee
dated of even date herewith, as amended on the date hereof (as amended, the
“Credit
Agreement”).
This Note
shall evidence the Undersigned’s indebtedness to Payee for Payee’s portion of
the Revolving Commitment, and advances made thereunder.
The Loan
shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time
outstanding, until maturity, at the interest rates as provided in, and pursuant
to the terms of, the Credit Agreement.
Interest
and principal on this Note shall be due and payable as provided in the Credit
Agreement. The final principal payment and any unpaid interest owing
hereunder shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The
principal balance hereof may be, and shall be required to be, prepaid as
provided in the Credit Agreement.
This Note
is a revolving promissory note; therefore, amounts advanced hereunder may be
repaid, readvanced and repaid pursuant to the terms set forth in the Credit
Agreement.
At the
option of the holder of this Note the entire principal balance and accrued
interest owing hereon shall become due and payable without further demand upon
the occurrence at any time of any Event of Default under the Credit
Agreement.
Except as
otherwise set forth in this Note or the Credit Agreement, the Undersigned waives
demand, presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of
protest, notice of dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration and all other notice of any kind, filing of suit and diligence in
collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor, and consents to
all extensions which from time to time may be granted by the holder hereof and
to all partial payments hereon, whether before or after maturity.

If this
Note is not paid when due, whether at maturity or by acceleration or otherwise,
or if it is collected through a bankruptcy, probate or other judicial or
administrative proceeding, whether before or after maturity, the Undersigned
agrees to pay all reasonable costs of collection, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the holder hereof.
Any
provisions herein, or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or
in any other agreement or commitment, whether written or oral, expressed or
implied, to the contrary notwithstanding, the holder hereof shall in no event
charge or be entitled to receive or collect, nor shall or may amounts received
hereunder be credited, so that the holder hereof shall be paid, as interest, a
sum greater than the maximum permitted by applicable law to be charged to the
person, partnership, firm or corporation primarily obligated to pay this
Note. If any construction of this Note, or any and all other papers,
agreements or commitments, indicates a different right given to the holder
hereof to ask for, demand or receive any larger sum as interest, such is a
mistake in calculation or wording, which this clause shall override and control;
it being the intention of the parties that this Note and all other instruments
executed in connection herewith shall in all things comply with applicable law,
and proper adjustment shall automatically be made accordingly. In the
event the holder hereof ever receives, collects or applies as interest, any sum
in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law, such excess amount shall
be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, in the
inverse order of maturity, and not to interest, and if this Note is paid in
full, any remaining excess shall be refunded to the Undersigned. In
determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific
contingency, exceeds the maximum permitted by applicable law, the Undersigned
and the holder hereof shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable
law: (i) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium
rather than as interest; (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects
thereof; and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of
interest throughout the entire term of this Note (including any renewals or
extensions) so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of
this Note and does not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable
law. The provisions of this paragraph shall control all existing and
future agreements between the Undersigned and the holder hereof.
This Note
is executed and delivered in the State of Texas and intended to be performed in
Dallas County, Texas, and except to the extent that the laws of the United
States of America may pre-empt or govern the terms hereof, this Note shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas; and
the Undersigned irrevocably agrees that in the event of any dispute involving
this Note or any other instruments executed in connection herewith, venue for
such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in Dallas County,
Texas.
This Note
and all the covenants, promises and agreements contained herein shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the respective heirs, devisees, legal and
personal representatives, successors and assigns of the holder hereof and the
Undersigned.
THIS NOTE
AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT
ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
