1.   Section 1.4 of the Note, Note Rate and Note Rate Adjustment Dates, is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence thereof and replacing it, as of the Effective Date, with the following:

 

“The “2011 Note Rate” shall mean an interest rate charged beginning on the Effective Date and continuing through December 31, 2011, which is the average of London Interbank Offered Rates (“LIBOR”), in U.S. dollar deposits, for a term of one month determined solely by Lender on each Note Rate Adjustment Date (defined below), but not less than two and one-half percent (2.50%), plus four percent (4.00%) (“2011 Margin”).  Beginning January 1, 2012, the “2012 Note Rate” charged shall be LIBOR for a term of one month determined solely by Lender on each Note Rate Adjustment Date, but not less than two and one-half percent (2.50%), plus five percent (5.00%) (“2012 Margin”; the 2011 Margin and the 2012 Margin, as then in effect, may be referred to herein as the “Margin”), which combined figure shall be rounded upwards to the nearest one-eighth percent (.125%). The term “Note Rate” shall mean either the 2011 Note Rate or the 2012 Note Rate as applicable at the time the Note Rate is charged.

3.   Except as expressly amended herein, the Note shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and conditions.

 

5.           This Second Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower and Lender have each caused this Second Amendment to be duly executed and delivered on its behalf by its duly authorized representatives, on the day and year first above written.
