FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Borrower unconditionally (and jointly and
severally, if more than one) promises to pay to the order of Bank, its
successors and assigns, without set off, at its offices indicated at the
beginning of this Note, or at such other place as may be designated by Bank,
the principal amount of Seven Million and No/100 Dollars ($7,000,000.00) in
immediately available funds as set forth in that certain Second Amended and
Restated Loan Agreement dated July 31, 1998, as later modified by that certain
First Modification of Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated September
15, 1998, and by that certain Second Modification of Second Amended and
Restated Loan Agreement of even date herewith (collectively the "Loan
Agreement"), together with interest computed daily on the outstanding principal
balance hereunder, at an annual interest rate, and in accordance with the
payment schedule, indicated below.
1. RATE. The unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding
which is not past due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Six and
42/100ths percent (6.42%).
The term "Maximum Rate" as used in this Note means the maximum nonusurious rate
of interest per annum permitted by whichever of applicable United States
federal law or the law of the state of Tennessee permits the higher interest
rate, including to the extent permitted by applicable law, any amendments
thereof hereafter or any new law hereafter coming into effect to the extent a
higher Maximum Rate is permitted thereby. The Maximum Rate shall be applied by
taking into account all amounts characterized by applicable law as interest on
the debt evidenced by this Note, so that the aggregate of all interest does not
exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Note, Bank does not intend to charge and
Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount of interest or other charges
in excess of the Maximum Rate; if any higher rate ceiling is lawful, then that
higher rate ceiling shall apply. Any payment in excess of such Maximum Rate
shall be refunded to Borrower or credited against principal, at the option of
Bank.
2. ANNUAL BASIS OR ACCRUAL METHOD. "Annual Basis" means computation of interest
at the Rate set forth above using a 365/360 day method (a daily amount of
interest is computed for a hypothetical year of 360 days; that amount is
multiplied by the actual number of days for which any principal is outstanding
hereunder).
3. PAYMENT SCHEDULE. All principal and interest thereon shall be due and
payable on June 21, 1999. All payments received hereunder shall be applied
first to the payment of any expense or charges payable hereunder or under any
other loan documents executed in connection with this Note, then to interest
due and payable, with the balance applied to principal, or in such other order
as Bank shall determine at its option.
1
16
4. WAIVERS, CONSENTS AND COVENANTS. Borrower, any indorse or guarantor hereof,
or any other party hereto (individually an "Obligor" and collectively
"Obligors") and each of them jointly and severally: (a) waive presentment,
demand, protest, notice of demand, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration of maturity, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of
dishonor, and any other notice required to be given under the law to any
Obligor in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or
enforcement of this Note, any indorsement or guaranty of this Note, or any
other documents executed in connection with this Note or any other note or
other loan documents now or hereafter executed in connection with any
obligation of Borrower to Bank (the "Loan Documents"); (b) consent to all
delays, extensions, renewals or, in the case of any guarantor, other
modifications of this Note or the Loan Documents, or waivers of any term hereof
or of the Loan Documents, or release or discharge by Bank of any of Obligors,
or release, substitution or exchange of any security for the payment hereof, or
the failure to act on the part of Bank, or any indulgence shown by Bank
(without notice to or further assent from any of Obligors), and agree that no
such action, failure to act or failure to exercise any right or remedy by Bank
shall in any way affect or impair the obligations of any Obligors or be
construed as a waiver by Bank of, or otherwise affect, any of Bank's rights
under this Note, under any indorsement or guaranty of this Note or under any of
the Loan Documents; and (c) agree to pay, on demand, all costs and expenses of
collection or defense of this Note or of any indorsement or guaranty hereof
and/or the enforcement or defense of Bank's rights with respect to, or the
administration, supervision, preservation, or protection of, or realization
upon, any property securing payment hereof, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorney's fees, including fees related to any suit, mediation or
arbitration proceeding, out of court payment agreement, trial, appeal,
bankruptcy proceedings of other proceeding, in such amount as may be determined
reasonable by any arbitrator or court, whichever is applicable.
5. PREPAYMENTS. Prepayments may be made in whole or in part at any time without
penalty.
6. DELINQUENCY CHARGE. To the extent permitted by law, a delinquency charge may
be imposed in an amount not to exceed four percent (4%) of any payment that is
more than fifteen (15) days late.
7. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The following are events of default hereunder: (a) the
failure to pay or perform any obligation, liability or indebtedness of any
Obligor to Bank, or to any affiliate or subsidiary of NationsBank Corporation,
whether under this Note, the Loan Agreement, or any of the other Loan
Documents, within fifteen (15) days of the date when due (whether upon demand,
at maturity or by acceleration); (b) the failure to pay or perform any other
material obligation, liability or indebtedness of any Obligor to any other
party; (c) the commencement of a proceeding against any Obligor for dissolution
or liquidation, the voluntary or involuntary termination or dissolution of any
Obligor for dissolution or liquidation, the voluntary or involuntary
termination or dissolution of any Obligor or the merger or consolidation of any
Obligor with or into another entity; (d) the insolvency of, the business
failure of, the appointment of a custodian, trustee, liquidator or receiver for
or for any of the property of, the assignment for the benefit of creditors by,
or the filing of a petition under bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor's relief law
or the filing of a petition for any adjustment of indebtedness, composition or
extension by or against any Obligor; (e) the determination by Bank that any
representation or warranty made to Bank by any Obligor in any Loan Documents or
otherwise is or was, when it was made, untrue or materially misleading; (f) the
failure of any Obligor to timely deliver such financial statements, including
tax returns, other statements of condition or other information, as Bank shall
request from time to time; or (g) the seizure of forfeiture of, or the issuance
of any writ of possession, garnishment or attachment, or any turnover order for
any property of any Obligor.
8. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. Whenever there is a default under this Note (a) the
entire balance outstanding hereunder and all other obligations of any Obligor
to Bank (however acquired or evidenced) shall, at the option of Bank, become
immediately due and payable and any obligation of Bank to permit further
borrowing under this Note shall immediately cease and terminate, and/or (b) to
the extent permitted by law, the Rate of interest on the unpaid principal shall
be increased at Bank's discretion up to the Maximum Rate, or if none, 25% per
annum (the "Default Rate"). The provisions herein for a Default Rate shall not
be deemed to extend the time for any payment hereunder or to constitute a "grace
period" giving Obligors a right to cure any default. At Bank's option, any
accrued and unpaid interest, fees or charges may, for purposes of computing and
accruing interest on a daily basis after the due date of the Note or any
installment thereof, be deemed to be a part of the principal balance, and
interest shall accrue on a daily compounded basis after such date at the Default
Rate provided in this Note until the entire outstanding balance of principal and
interest is paid in full. Upon a default under this Note, Bank is hereby
authorized at any time, at its option and without notice or demand, to set off
and charge against any deposit accounts of any Obligor, (as well as any money,
instruments, securities, documents, chattel paper, credits, claims, demands,
income and any other property, rights and interests of any Obligor), which at
any time shall come into the possession or custody or under the control of Bank
or any of its agents, affiliates or correspondents, any and all obligations due
hereunder. Additionally, Bank shall have all rights and remedies available under
each of the Loan Documents, as well as all rights and remedies available at law
or in equity.
2
17
9. NON-WAIVER. The failure at any time of Bank to exercise any of its options
or any other rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall
it be a bar to the exercise of any of its options or rights at a later date.
All rights and remedies of Bank shall be cumulative and may be pursued singly,
successively or together, at the option of Bank. The acceptance by Bank of any
partial payment shall not constitute a waiver of any default or of any of
Bank's rights under this Note. No waiver of any of its rights hereunder, and no
modification or amendment of this Note, shall be deemed to be made by Bank
unless the same shall be in writing, duly signed on behalf of Bank; each such
waiver shall apply only with respect to the specific instance involved, and
shall in no way impair the rights of Bank or the obligations of Obligors to
Bank in any other respect at any other time.
10. APPLICABLE LAW, VENUE AND JURISDICTION. This Note and the rights and
obligations of Borrower and Bank shall be governed by and interpreted in
accordance with the law of the State of Tennessee. In any litigation in
connection with or to enforce this Note or any indorsement or guaranty of this
Note or any Loan Documents, Obligors, and each of them, irrevocably consent to
