Address of residence/chief executive office: 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000
BANK: MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY, a New York banking corporation
with banking offices at Xxx X&X Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 Attention:
Office of General Counsel
PROMISE TO PAY. For value received, and intending to be legally bound,
Borrower promises to pay to the order of the Bank on demand (or, if this Note
has been converted to a term note, on the schedule set forth below), the
principal sum of ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY THOUSAND DOLLARS AND NO CENTS
($180,000.00) (the "Maximum Principal Amount") or the actual outstanding
principal amount under this Note (the "Outstanding Principal Amount"), if
less; plus interest as agreed below and all fees and costs (including without
limitation attorneys' fees and disbursements, whether for internal or outside
counsel) the Bank incurs in order to collect any amount due under this Note,
to negotiate or document a workout or restructuring, or to preserve its
rights or realize upon any guaranty or other security for the payment of this
Note (the "Expenses").
INTEREST. The Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall earn interest
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days of
each year (365 or 366) from and including the date the proceeds of this Note
were disbursed to, but not including, the date all amounts hereunder are paid
in full, at a rate per year which shall on each day be 1.5 PERCENTAGE POINTS
ABOVE THE HIGHEST PRIME RATE PUBLISHED IN THE WALL STREET JOURNAL in its
table entitled "Money Rates" or such similar publication, quoting service or
commonly available source used by the Bank for determining prime rate of
interest. If no rate is specified, interest shall accrue at the Maximum Legal
Rate (defined below) at all times prior to payment in full.
DEFAULT RATE. If the Bank does not actually receive any payment under this
Note when due and/or, after the Conversion Date, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default (defined below), the interest rate on the Outstanding
Principal Amount shall automatically increase to 5 percentage points above
the otherwise applicable rate per year, and any judgment entered hereon or
otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall
bear interest at such default rate.
MAXIMUM LEGAL RATE. It is the intent of the Bank and of Borrower that in no
event shall interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate
permitted by applicable law (the "Maximum Legal Rate"). Solely to the extent
necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum
Legal Rate, any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final
judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a
mistake and automatically canceled, and, if received by the Bank, shall be
refunded to Borrower.
REPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Absent demand for repayment in full,
interest on the Outstanding Principal Amount shall be due and payable
monthly. Absent demand for payment in full and until the Conversion Date, if
any, principal payments may be made at any time at Xxxxxxxx's discretion,
subject to the Annual Cleanup described below. Payments shall be made in
immediately available funds at any banking office of the Bank.
LATE CHARGE. If Borrower fails to pay the whole or any installment of
principal or interest within 5 days of its due date, Borrower shall pay a
late charge equal to the greatest of (a) $50.00 (b) 5% of the delinquent
amount, or (c) the Bank's then current late charge as announced from time to
time; provided, however, that any excess collected by mistake shall be
refunded on request, and each such late charge shall be separately charged
and collected by the Bank.
APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Payments may be applied in any order in the sole
discretion of the Bank but, prior to demand or default, shall be applied
first to past due interest, Expenses, late charges and principal, then to
current interest, Expenses, late charges and principal, and last to remaining
principal.
SETOFF. The Bank shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing
under this Note any property held in a deposit or other account with the Bank
or any of its affiliates ("Affiliate") or otherwise owing by the Bank or any
Affiliates in any capacity to Borrower or any guarantor or endorser of this
Note (a "Guarantor"). Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised
immediately at the time the Bank or such Affiliate elect to do so.
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES. This Note is issued by Borrower to the Bank in
connection with a certain line of credit made available by the Bank to
Borrower (the "Credit"). The Bank may make any loan or payment pursuant to
the Credit (the "Loan(s)") in reliance upon any oral, telephonic, written,
teletransmitted or other request (the "Request(s)") that the Bank in good
faith believes to be valid and to have been made by Borrower or on behalf of
Borrower by XXXXXX XXXXX, MEMBER OR XXXXX X. XXXXX, MEMBER (actual name and
capacity) (each an "Authorized Person"). Mention of the Authorized Person's
name in the prior sentence is for reference purposes only and the Bank shall
rely on the title to ascertain whether someone is an Authorized Person. The
Bank may act on the Request of any Authorized Person until the Bank shall
have received from Borrower, and had a reasonable time to act on, written
notice revoking the authority of such Authorized Person. The Bank shall incur
no liability to Borrower or to any other person as a direct or indirect
result of making any Loan pursuant to this paragraph.
MINIMUM ADVANCE. Each Loan requested by BORROWER SHALL EQUAL $5,000 OR MORE.
Advances for smaller amounts will be subject to a $25.00 processing fee.
DISCRETIONARY FACILITY. The Bank may modify, restrict, suspend or terminate
the Credit at any time for any reason and without affecting Borrower's then
existing obligations under this Note. Any Request for a Loan hereunder shall
be limited in amount, such that the sum of (i) the principal amount of such
Request; (ii) the Outstanding Principal Amount under this Note; and (iii) the
aggregate face amounts of (or, if greater, Xxxxxxxx's aggregate reimbursement
obligations to the Bank (or any of its affiliates) in connection with) any
letters of credit issued by the Bank (or any of its affiliates) at the
request (or for the benefit of) Borrower, pursuant to this Credit; does not
exceed the Maximum Principal Amount under this Note. Notwithstanding the
above, the Bank shall have the sole and absolute discretion whether to make
any Loan (or any portion of any Loan) requested by Borrower, regardless of
any general availability under the Maximum Principal Amount.
DEMAND FACILITY. Until the Conversion Date, if any, this is a demand Note and
all Loans hereunder shall become immediately due and payable upon demand by
the Bank, provided, however, the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note
and all accrued and unpaid interest shall automatically become immediately
due and payable if Borrower or any Guarantor commences or has commenced
against it any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. Borrower hereby waives
protest, presentment and notice of any kind in connection with this Note.
ANNUAL CREDIT REVIEW FEE. Borrower shall pay on or before each anniversary of
this Note a non-refundable credit review fee equal to the greater of (a) 1/2%
of the Maximum Principal Amount or (b) $250. Borrower acknowledges and
understands that payment of such credit review fee shall not entitle Borrower
to any assurances of availability of credit hereunder, nor otherwise alter or
compromise the discretionary or demand nature of this credit facility.
ANNUAL 30-DAY CLEANUP. Xxxxxxxx agrees that, once each year, it shall pay all
principal, interest and Expenses outstanding under this Note at the
commencement of a 30-day period chosen by Xxxxxxxx. No Loans shall be
requested or advanced during the 30-day period (the "Annual Cleanup").
CONVERSION TO TERM NOTE; CONVERSION DATE. If Xxxxxxxx fails to perform the
Annual Cleanup, or if the Bank elects to terminate the Credit, the Bank may,
at its option, and upon written notice to Borrower, declare this Note
converted as of a certain date (the "Conversion Date") to a 3-year term
obligation. The Maturity Date of this Note will then be the third anniversary
of the Conversion Date.
REPAYMENT UPON CONVERSION TO TERM NOTE. After the Conversion Date, if any,
Borrower shall repay the Outstanding Principal Amount in 36 equal monthly
installments, commencing on the first day of the first month following the
Conversion Date and continuing on the first day of each of the succeeding 35
months. The last such payment shall also include other amounts outstanding
under this Note. Until the Outstanding Principal Amount is paid in full,
Borrower shall continue to pay interest on the first day of each month
calculated in accordance with the terms of this Note.
PREPAYMENT PROVISION. Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at
any time without premium or penalty. After the Conversion Date, upon making
any prepayment of the principal in whole, Borrower shall pay to the Bank all
interest and Expenses owing pursuant to this Note and remaining unpaid. After
the Conversion Date, each partial prepayment of the Principal shall be
applied in inverse order of maturity.
FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION; CERTIFICATES OF NO DEFAULT. While this Note
is in effect, Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Bank copies of all
annual reports, proxy statements and similar information distributed to
shareholders or partners, and of all filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation and shall provide, in
form satisfactory to the Bank: (a) within sixty days after the end of each of
Borrower's first three fiscal quarters, consolidating and consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for such quarter, for the corresponding
quarter in the previous fiscal year, and for the period from the end of the
previous fiscal year, with a consolidating and consolidated balance sheet as
of the quarter end; and (b) within ninety days after the end of each fiscal
year, consolidating and consolidated statements of Borrower's income and cash
flows and its consolidating and consolidated balance sheet as of the end of
such fiscal year, setting forth comparative figures for the preceding fiscal
year, such statement to be:
[ ] AUDITED [ ] REVIEWED [X] COMPILED
by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to the Bank. All
such statements shall be certified by Xxxxxxxx's chief financial officer or
partner to be correct and in accordance with Xxxxxxxx's records and to
present fairly the results of Xxxxxxxx's operations in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. With each statement of income,
Borrower shall provide a certificate executed by its chief executive and
chief financial officers or managing partners stating that no Event of
Default occurred during the period, or if an Event of Default did occur,
describing its nature, the date(s) of its occurrence or period of existence
and what action Borrower has taken with respect thereto. If no box is checked
above, Borrower shall supply financial reports immediately upon the Bank's
request in the form and number of copies and at the times satisfactory to the
Bank.
BANK RECORDS CONCLUSIVE. The Bank shall set forth on a schedule attached to
this Note or maintained on computer, the date and original principal amount
of each Loan and the date and amount of each payment to be applied to the
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. The Outstanding Principal Amount
set forth on any such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the aggregate
Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and of all Loans. No failure by the
Bank to make, and no error by the Bank in making, any annotation on any such
schedule shall affect Borrower's obligation to pay the principal and interest
of each Loan or any other obligation of Borrower to the Bank pursuant to this
Note.
