Two Hundred Thousand and no/100 ($200,000.00) dollars,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Write out amount)
with interest on unpaid principal computed from the date of each advance to the
undersigned at the rate of 10.00% percent per annum, payment to be made in
installments as follows:
Principal and interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) payable as follows:
interest only payable monthly, beginning one (1) month(s) from date of Note, for
a period of six (6) month(s); thereafter, $3,498,00, including principal and
interest, payable monthly, beginning seven (7) month(s) from date of Note; with
the further provision that each said installment shall be applied first to
interest accrued to date of receipt of said installment, and the balance, if any
to principal, and the balance of principal and interest due and payable on or
before seven (7) years from date of Note,
Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay a late charge equal to 5% of the payment amount due if
such payment is not received within ten days of the due date. Funds received
from the Borrower will be applied first to interest to the date of receipt, then
to principal and then to the late fee.
IN NO EVENT, HOWEVER, SHALL THE INTEREST RATE PROVIDED HEREIN EXCEED THE MAXIMUM
PERMITTED BY THE STATUTES AND CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF TENNESSEE, OR TITLE
12 USC SECTIONS 85 and 86a. If undersigned shall be in default in payment due on
the indebtedness herein and Small Business Administration (SBA) purchases its
guaranteed portion of said indebtedness, the rate of interest on both the
guaranteed and unguaranteed portion herein shall become fixed at the rate in
effect as of the initial date of default. If the undersigned shall not be in
default in payment when SBA purchases its guaranteed portion, the rate of
interest on boils the guaranteed and unguaranteed portion herein shall be fixed
at the rate in effect as of the date of purchase by SBA.
If this Note contains a fluctuating interest rate, the notice provision is
not a pre-condition for fluctuation (which shall take place regardless of
notice). Payment of any installment of principal or interest owing on this Note
may be made prior to the maturity date thereof without penalty. Borrower shall
provide lender with written notice of intent to prepay part or all of this loan
at least three (3) weeks prior to the anticipated prepayment date. A prepayment
is any payment made ahead of schedule that exceeds twenty (20) percent of the
then outstanding principal balance. If borrower makes a prepayment and fails to
give at least three weeks advance notice of intent to prepay, then,
notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this note or other
document, borrower shall be required to pay lender three weeks interest on the
unpaid principal as of the date preceding such prepayment.

The term "indebtedness" as used herein shall mean the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note, including principal, interest and expenses, whether
contingent, now due or hereafter to become due and whether heretofore or
contemporaneously herewith or hereafter contracted. The term "Collateral" as
used in this Note shall mean any funds, guaranties, or other property or rights
therein of any nature whatsoever or the proceeds thereof which may have been,
are, or hereafter may be, hypothecated, directly or indirectly by the
undersigned or others, in connection with, or as security for, the Indebtedness
or any part thereof. The Collateral, and each part thereof, shall secure the
Indebtedness and each part thereof. The covenants and conditions set forth or
referred to in any and all instruments of hypothecation constituting the
Collateral are hereby Incorporated in this Note as covenants and conditions of
the undersigned with the same force and effect as though such covenants and
conditions were fully set forth herein.
The Indebtedness shall immediately become due and payable, without notice
or demand, upon the appointment of a receiver or liquidator, whether voluntary
or involuntary, for the undersigned or for any of its property, or upon the
filing of a petition by or against the undersigned under the provisions of any
State insolvency law or under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of
1978, as amended, or upon the making by the undersigned of an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors. Holder is authorized to declare all or any part of the
Indebtedness immediately due and payable upon the happening of any of the
following events: (1) Failure to pay any part of the Indebtedness when due; (2)
nonperformance by the undersigned of any agreement with, or any condition
imposed by, Holder or Small Business Administration (hereinafter called "SBA"),
with respect to the Indebtedness; (3) Holder's discovery of the undersigned's
failure in any application of the undersigned to Holder or SBA to disclose any
fact deemed by Holder to be material or of the making therein or in any of the
said agreements, or in any affidavit or other documents submitted in connection
with said application or the indebtedness, of any misrepresentation by, on
behalf of, or for the benefit of the undersigned; (4) the reorganization (other
than a reorganization pursuant to any of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Reform
Act of 1978, as amended) or merger or consolidation of the undersigned (or the
making of any agreement therefor) without the prior written consent of Holder;
(5) the undersigned's failure duly to account, to Holder's satisfaction, at such
time or times as Holder may require, for any of the Collateral, or proceeds
thereof, coming into the control of the undersigned; or (6) the institution of
any suit affecting the undersigned deemed by Holder to affect adversely its
interest hereunder in the Collateral or otherwise. Holder's failure to exercise
its rights under this paragraph shall not constitute a waiver thereof.
Upon the nonpayment of the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, when due,
whether by acceleration or otherwise, Holder is empowered to sell assign, and
deliver the whole or any part of the Collateral at public or private sale,
without demand, advertisement or notice of the time or place of sale or of any
adjournment thereof, which are hereby expressly waived. After deducting all
expenses incidental to or arising from such sale or sales, Holder may apply the
residue of the proceeds thereof to the payment of the Indebtedness, as it shall
deem proper, returning the excess, if any, to the undersigned. The undersigned
hereby waives all right of redemption or appraisement whether before or after
sale.
Holder is further empowered to collect or cause to be collected or
otherwise to be converted into money all or any part of the Collateral, by suit
or otherwise, and to surrender, compromise, release, renew, extend, exchange, or
substitute any item of the Collateral in transactions with the undersigned or
any third party, irrespective of any assignment thereof by the undersigned, and
without prior notice to or consent of the undersigned or any assignee. Whenever
any item of the Collateral shall not be paid when due, or otherwise shall be in
default, whether or not the indebtedness, or any part thereof, has become due,
Holder shall have the same rights and powers with respect to such item of the
Collateral as are granted in this paragraph in case of nonpayment of the
Indebtedness, or any part thereof, when due. None of the rights, remedies,
privileges, or powers of Holder expressly provided for herein shall be
exclusive, but each of them shall be cumulative with and in addition to every
other right remedy, privilege, and power now or hereafter existing in favor of
Holder, whether at law or equity, by statute or otherwise.
The undersigned agrees to take all necessary steps to administer,
supervise, preserve, and protect the Collateral, and regardless of any action
taken by Holder, there shall be no duty upon Holder in this respect. The
undersigned shall pay all expenses of any nature, whether incurred in or out of
court, and whether incurred before or after this Note shall become due at its
maturity date or otherwise, including but not limited to reasonable attorney's
fees and costs, which Holder may deem necessary or proper in connection with the
satisfaction of the Indebtedness or the administration, supervision,
preservation, protection of (including, but not limited to, the maintenance of
adequate insurance) or the realization upon the Collateral. Holder is authorized
to pay at any time and from time to time any or all of such expenses, add the
amount of such payment to the amount of the Indebtedness, and charge interest
thereon at the rate specified herein with respect to the principal amount of
this Note.
The security rights of Holder and its assigns hereunder shall not be
impaired by Xxxxxx's sale, hypothecation or rehypothecation of any note of the
undersigned or any item of the Collateral, or by any indulgence, including but
not limited to (a) any renewal, extension, or modification which Holder may
grant with respect to the Indebtedness or any part thereof, or (b) any
surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange, or substitution
which Holder may grant in respect of the Collateral, or (c) any indulgence
granted in respect of any endorser, guarantor, or surety. The purchaser,
assignee, transferee, or pledgee on this Note, the Collateral, and guaranty, and
any other document (or any of them), sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or
repledged, shall forthwith become vested with and entitled to exercise all the
powers and rights given by this Note and all applications of the undersigned to
Holder or SBA, as if said purchaser, assignee, transferee, or pledgee were
originally named as Payee in this Note and in said application or applications.
