be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received on the indebtedness

the United States and the State of Texas applicable to such holder and such
indebtedness or, to the extent permitted by law, under such applicable laws of
the United States and the State of Texas which may hereafter be in effect and
which allow a higher maximum nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws now
allow. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code ("Code"), is
----
relevant to any holder of this Amended Note for the purposes of determining the
Maximum Rate, each such holder elects to determine such applicable legal rate
under the Act pursuant to the "weekly ceiling," from time to time in effect, as
referred to and defined in Chapter 303 of the Code; subject, however, to the
limitations on such applicable ceiling referred to and defined in Chapter 303 of
the Code, and further subject to any right such holder may have subsequently,
under applicable law, to change the method of determining the Maximum Rate. If
no Maximum Rate is established by applicable law, then the Maximum Rate shall be
equal to eighteen percent (18%).

a decimal fraction) which is in effect on such day, as provided by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor governmental body) for
determining the reserve requirements (including without limitation, basic,
supplemental, marginal and emergency reserves) under Regulation D with respect
to "Eurocurrency liabilities" as currently defined in Regulation D, or under any
similar or successor regulation. For purposes of this definition, any LIBOR
Balances hereunder shall be deemed "Eurocurrency liabilities" under Regulation D
without benefit of or
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 3
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
credit for prorations, exemptions or offsets under Regulation D. Bank's
determination of the Reserve Requirement shall be conclusive.
2. Payments of Interest and Principal. Interest on the unpaid principal
----------------------------------
balance of this Amended Note shall be due and payable on each Interest Payment
Date as it accrues and the entire unpaid principal balance of this Amended Note,
and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the
Maturity Date.
3. Rates of Interest. The unpaid principal of the Prime Rate Balance shall
-----------------
bear interest at a rate per annum which shall from day to day be equal to the
lesser of (i) the Prime Rate in effect from day to day, or (ii) the Maximum
Rate. The unpaid principal of each LIBOR Balance shall bear interest at a rate
per annum which shall from day to day be equal to the lesser of (i) the Adjusted
LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect with respect to such LIBOR Balance,
or (ii) the Maximum Rate. Each change in the interest rate applicable to a Prime
Rate Balance shall become effective without prior notice to Borrower
automatically as of the opening of business on the date of such change in the
Prime Rate. Interest on this Amended Note shall be calculated on the basis of
the actual days elapsed in a year consisting of 365 days.
4. Interest Recapture. If on each Interest Payment Date or any other date
------------------
on which interest payments are required hereunder, Bank does not receive
interest on this Amended Note computed at the Contract Rate because such
Contract Rate exceeds or has exceeded the Maximum Rate, then Borrower shall,
upon the written demand of Bank, pay to Bank in addition to the interest
otherwise required to be paid hereunder, on each Interest Payment Date
thereafter, the Excess Interest Amount (calculated as of such later Interest
Payment Date); provided that in no event shall Borrower be required to pay, for
any Interest Period, interest at a rate exceeding the Maximum Rate effective
during such period.
5. Interest on Past Due Amounts. To the extent any interest is not paid on
----------------------------
or before the fifth day after it becomes due and payable, Bank may, at its
option, add such accrued but unpaid interest to the principal of this Amended
Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon an Event of Default
or at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise, all principal of this
Amended Note shall, at the option of Bank, bear interest at the Prime Rate plus
3% (the "Default Rate") until paid; provided, however, the Default Rate shall at
------------
no time exceed the Maximum Rate.
6. Interest Option. Subject to the provisions hereof, Borrower shall have
---------------
the option (an "Interest Option") of having designated portions of the unpaid
---------------
principal balance of this Amended Note bear interest at a rate based upon the
Adjusted LIBOR Rate or Prime Rate as provided in paragraph 3 hereof, provided,
however, that the selection of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for a particular Interest
Period shall not be for less than $100,000.00 of unpaid principal or an integral
multiple thereof. The Interest Option shall be exercised in the manner provided
below:
(i) At Time of Borrowing. Borrower shall give Bank an Interest Notice
--------------------
indicating the initial Interest Option selected with respect to the
principal balance of such advance.
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 4
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
(ii) At Expiration of Interest Periods. Unless otherwise agreed to by
---------------------------------
Bank, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the termination of any
Interest Period, Borrower shall give Bank an Interest Notice indicating the
Interest Option to be applicable to the corresponding LIBOR Balance upon
the expiration of such Interest Period. If the required Interest Notice
shall not have been timely received by Bank prior to the expiration of the
then-relevant Interest Period, Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a
rate based upon the Prime Rate to be applicable to such LIBOR Balance upon
the expiration of such Interest Period and to have given Bank notice of
such selection.
(iii) Conversion From Prime Rate. During any period in which any
--------------------------
portion of the principal hereof bears interest at a rate based upon the
Prime Rate, Borrower shall have the right, on any London Business Day (the
"Conversion Date"), to convert all or a portion of such principal amount
---------------
from the Prime Rate Balance to a LIBOR Balance by giving Bank an Interest
Notice of such selection at least two (2) London Business Days prior to
such Conversion Date, or as otherwise agreed to by Bank.
An Interest Notice may be written or oral and Bank is hereby authorized and
directed to honor all telephonic Interest Notices hereunder. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to
indemnify and hold Bank harmless from any loss or liability incurred by Bank in
connection with honoring any telephonic or other oral Interest Notices. All
written Interest Notices are effective only upon receipt by Bank. Each Interest
Notice shall be irrevocable and binding upon Borrower.
7. Special Provisions For LIBOR Pricing.
------------------------------------
a. Inadequacy of LIBOR Loan Pricing. If Bank determines that, by reason
--------------------------------
of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market generally, deposits
in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to United States
financial institutions in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest
Period, or that the rate at which such Dollar deposits are being offered will
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Bank of making or maintaining a
LIBOR Balance for the applicable Interest Period, Bank shall forthwith give
notice thereof to Borrower, whereupon until Bank notifies Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the right of
Borrower to select an Interest Option based upon the LIBOR Rate shall be
suspended, and (ii) Borrower shall be deemed to have converted each LIBOR
Balance to the Prime Rate Balance in accordance with the provisions hereof on
the last day of the then-current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR
Balance.
b. Illegality. If the adoption of any applicable law, rule or
----------
regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law)
of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful
or impossible for Bank to make or maintain a LIBOR Balance, Bank shall so notify
Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall be deemed to have
converted any LIBOR Balance to the Prime Rate Balance, on either (i) the last
day of the then-current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Balance if Bank
may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such LIBOR Balance
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 5
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
to such day, or (ii) immediately, if Bank may not lawfully continue to
maintain such LIBOR Balance to such day.
8. Extension, Place and Application of Payments. Should the principal of,
--------------------------------------------
or any interest on, this Amended Note become due and payable on any day other
than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable with respect to such
extension. All payments of principal of, and interest on, this Amended Note
shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately
available funds. Payments made to Bank by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereunder shall be applied
first to accrued but unpaid interest and then to outstanding principal.
9. Loan Agreement. This Amended Note is subject to the terms and provisions
--------------
of the Loan Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference for all
purposes. The holder of this Amended Note is entitled to the benefits provided
in the Loan Agreement.
10. Prepayments, Consequential Loss. Any prepayment made hereunder shall be
-------------------------------
made together with all interest accrued but unpaid on this Amended Note through
the date of such prepayment. Contemporaneously with each prepayment of
principal, Borrower shall give Bank written or oral notice indicating whether
such prepayment is to be applied to the Prime Rate Balance or a particular LIBOR
Balance. If such notice is not timely received by Bank, Borrower shall be deemed
to have selected to prepay the Prime Rate Balance and, if any sums remain after
satisfying all of the Prime Rate Balance, the remaining sums shall be applied to
any LIBOR Balance(s) that Bank determines in its sole discretion. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
agrees to indemnify and hold Bank harmless from any loss or liability incurred
by Bank in connection with honoring telephonic or other oral notices indicating
how a prepayment is to be applied. If Borrower makes any such prepayment other
than on the last day of an Interest Period, Borrower shall pay all accrued
interest on the principal amount prepaid with such prepayment and, on demand,
shall reimburse Bank and hold Bank harmless from all losses and expenses
incurred by Bank as a result of such prepayment, including, without limitation,
any losses and expenses arising from the liquidation or reemployment of deposits
acquired to fund or maintain the principal amount prepaid. Such reimbursement
shall be calculated as though Bank funded the principal amount prepaid through
the purchase of U.S. Dollar deposits in the London, England interbank market
having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest
rate equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, whether in fact that is
the case or not. Bank's determination of the amount of such reimbursement shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
11. Additional Costs. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay to Bank all Additional Costs
----------------
within ten (10) days of receipt by Borrower from Bank of a statement setting
forth the amount or amounts due and the basis for the determination from time to
time of such amount or amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding
upon Borrower absent manifest error. Failure on the part of Bank to demand
compensation for any Additional Costs in any Interest Period shall not
constitute a waiver of Bank's right to demand compensation for any Additional
Costs incurred during any such Interest Period or in any other subsequent or
prior Interest Period. The term "Additional Costs" shall mean such additional
----------------
amount or amounts as Bank shall reasonably determine will compensate Bank for
actual costs incurred by Bank in maintaining LIBOR Rates
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 6
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
on the LIBOR Balances or any portion thereof as a result of any change,
after the date of this Amended Note, in applicable law, rule or regulation or in
the interpretation or administration thereof by, or the compliance by Bank with
any request or directive from, any domestic or foreign governmental authority
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having
the force of law) or by any domestic or foreign court changing the basis of
taxation of payments to Bank of the LIBOR Balances or interest on the LIBOR
Balances or any portion thereof at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate or any other fees or
amounts payable under this Amended Note or the Loan Agreement (other than taxes
imposed on all or any portion of the overall net income of Bank by the State of
Texas or the Federal government), or imposing, modifying or applying any
reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with
or for the account of, credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds for
loans by Bank, or imposing on Bank, as the case may be, or on the London
interbank market any other condition affecting this Amended Note, the Loan
Agreement or the LIBOR Balances so as to increase the cost of Bank making or
maintaining Adjustable LIBOR Rates with respect to the LIBOR Balances or any
portion thereof or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by
Bank under this Amended Note or the Loan Agreement (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise), by an amount deemed by Bank in good faith to be
material, but without duplication for Reserve Requirement.
12. Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices and requests
-------
required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been given when personally delivered or, if mailed, two Business Days after
deposited in a regularly maintained receptacle for the United States Postal
Service, postage prepaid, registered or certified, return receipt requested,
addressed to Borrower or Bank at the following respective addresses or such
other address as such party may from time to time designate by written notice to
the other: Borrower: ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention:
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇; Bank: ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: ▇▇▇▇
Points.
13. Legal Fees. If this Amended Note is placed in the hands of any
----------
attorney for collection, or if it is collected through any legal proceeding at
law or in equity or in bankruptcy, receivership or other court proceedings,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to,
court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
14. Waivers. Borrower and each surety, endorser, guarantor and any other
-------
party ever liable for payment of any sums of money payable on this Amended Note,
jointly and severally waive presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice
of protest, intention to accelerate, acceleration and non-payment, or other
notice of default, and agree that their liability under this Amended Note shall
not be affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment hereof, or in
any indulgences, or by any release or change in any security for the payment of
this Amended Note, and hereby consent to any and all renewals, extensions,
indulgences, releases or changes, regardless of the number of such renewals,
extensions, indulgences, releases or changes; provided, however, this Amended
Note may not be amended or modified except by a written instrument signed by the
Borrower and the holder hereof.
No waiver by Bank of any of its rights or remedies hereunder or under any
other document evidencing or securing this Amended Note or otherwise shall be
considered a waiver
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 7
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
of any other subsequent right or remedy of Bank; no delay or omission in
the exercise or enforcement by Bank of any rights or remedies shall ever be
construed as a waiver of any right or remedy of Bank; and no exercise or
enforcement of any such rights or remedies shall ever be held to exhaust any
right or remedy of Bank.
15. Remedies. Subject to any notice and cure period, upon the occurrence
--------
of any Event of Default, the holder hereof may, at its option, (i) declare the
entire unpaid balance of principal and accrued but unpaid interest on this
Amended Note to be immediately due and payable, (ii) refuse to advance any
additional amounts under this Amended Note, (iii) foreclose all liens securing
payment hereof, (iv) pursue any and all other rights, remedies and recourses
available to the holder hereof, including but not limited to, any such rights,
remedies or recourses under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (v)
pursue any combination of the foregoing.
16. Spreading. Any provision herein, or in any document securing this
---------
Amended Note, or any other document executed or delivered in connection
herewith, or in any other agreement or commitment, whether written or oral,
expressed or implied, to the contrary notwithstanding, neither Bank nor any
holder hereof shall in any event be entitled to receive or collect, nor shall or
may amounts received hereunder be credited, so that Bank or any holder hereof
shall be paid, as interest, a sum greater than the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law to be charged to the person, partnership, firm or corporation
primarily obligated to pay this Amended Note at the time in question. If any
construction of this Amended Note or any document securing this Amended Note, or
any and all other papers, agreements or commitments, indicate a different right
given to Bank or any 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 Amended
Note, and all other instruments securing the payment of this Amended Note or
executed or delivered in connection herewith shall in all things comply with the
applicable law and proper adjustments shall automatically be made accordingly.
In the event that Bank or any holder hereof ever receives, collects or applies
as interest, any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, if any, such excess amount
shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this
Amended Note, and if this Amended Note is paid in full, any remaining excess
shall be paid to Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or
payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the Maximum Rate, if any,
Borrower and Bank or any holder hereof shall, to the maximum extent permitted
under applicable law: (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense or
fee rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects
thereof, (c) "spread" the total amount of interest throughout the entire term of
this Amended Note; provided that if this Amended Note is paid and performed in
full prior to the end of the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest
received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Maximum Rate, if
any, Bank or any holder hereof shall refund to Borrower the amount of such
excess, or credit the amount of such excess against the aggregate unpaid
principal balance of all advances made by the Bank or any holder hereof under
this Amended Note at the time in question.
17. Choice of Law. This Amended Note is being executed and delivered, and
-------------
is intended to be performed in the State of Texas. Except to the extent that the
laws of the United States may apply to the terms hereof, the substantive laws of
the State of Texas shall govern the
AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM NOTE (AMX Corporation) Page 8
------------------------------------------------
3003124v3
validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Amended
Note. In the event of a dispute involving this Amended Note or any other
instruments executed in connection herewith, the undersigned irrevocably agrees
that venue for such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in
Dallas County, Texas.
