Percentage		Debt to Worth Ratio
2.75%		>3.00 to 1.00

1.75%		>2.00 to 1.00 or <2.50 to 1.00
1.50%		<=2.00 to 1.00

as adjusted provided below, or (y) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, but in no event shall interest exceed the maximum interest permitted by law (“Libor Rate”). Such rate will be adjusted based upon Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s Compliance Certificate as provided in Section 10(c) of the Loan Agreement, with the “Debt to Worth Ratio” calculation. If Borrower fails to provide the Compliance Certificate as provided in Section 10(c) then the percentage will be 2.75% until the delivery of the next quarter’s Compliance Certificate.

In the event that the London Interbank Offered Rate is no longer published or reported as specified above, then the Lender shall use the rate of interest published in The Wall Street Journal (Central Edition) in the “Money Rates” section as the “London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR)” for a period of time equal or comparable to the applicable Interest Period, as of five (5) Business Days preceding the date of the Advance. Each determination by Lender of the London Interbank Offered Rate shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error, and may be computed using any reasonable averaging and attribution method.

(c) Increased Cost. If any governmental agency, court, central bank or comparable authority shall impose any taxation, required level of reserves (except reserve requirements for certificates of deposit), deposits, insurance or capital, or similar requirements against assets, deposits or credit extended by Lender or shall impose on Lender or the eurodollar market any other condition affecting Advances, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost of Lender making or maintaining Advances or reduce

any sums received or receivable by Lender under this Loan Agreement or the Notes by a material amount as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, then Borrower shall reimburse Lender for such increased costs or reduced sums upon demand. Nothing herein will be construed to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than the highest rate permitted by law.

2. Promissory Notes. The Loans shall be evidenced by one or more promissory notes (whether one or more, together with any renewals, extensions and increases thereof, the “Notes”) duly executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Lender, in form and substance acceptable to Lender.
