(c)                                  “Breakage Costs” shall mean any actual loss or expense (including, without limitation, actual lost profit) that Bank sustains or incurs as a direct consequence of any prepayment (whether optional or mandatory) of the Note bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate by the Borrower on and after the date hereof and through the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period, including, but not limited to, any loss or any interest payable by Bank to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the Loan at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate.

(d)                                 “Earn-Out” shall mean the amount of TWO MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND ($2,600,000) DOLLARS which is not to be advanced on the date of

(f)                                   “LIBOR Rate” shall mean, for any LIBOR Interest Period, the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upward, as necessary, to the next nearest 1/1000 of 1%) equal to the rate reported for deposits in U.S. dollars, for a one-month period, that appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or the successor thereto) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period (the “Determination Date”); provided that, (i) if such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date, Lender shall request the principal London office of any four major reference banks in the London interbank market selected by Lender to provide such bank’s offered quotation (expressed as a percentage per annum) to prime banks in the London interbank market for deposits in U.S. dollars for a one-month period as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date for the amounts for a comparable loan at the time of such calculation and, if at least two such offered quotations are so provided, LIBOR shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations and (ii) if fewer than two such quotations in clause (i) are so provided, Lender shall request any three major banks in New York City selected by Lender to provide such bank’s rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a one-month period as of approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time on the applicable Determination Date for the amounts for a comparable loan at the time of such calculation and, if at least two such rates are so provided, LIBOR shall be the arithmetic mean of such rates.  In no event shall LIBOR be less than 0.

(g)                                  “LIBOR Interest Period” shall mean, with respect to any amount bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, a period of one (1) month, to the extent deposits with such maturities are available to the Bank, commencing on the first day of the month and ending on the last day of the month; provided, however, that

(h)                                 All payment dates herein shall be subject to and adjusted in accordance with the “Following Business Day Convention”. The Following Business Day Convention shall mean the convention for adjusting any relevant date if it would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day and provides that, in such event, such date shall be adjusted to the first following day that is a Business Day, except that if such following day shall be a day in the following month, such date shall be adjusted to the immediately preceding Business Day.  A “Business Day” means, in respect of any date that is specified herein to be subject to adjustment in accordance with the Following Business Day Convention, a day on which commercial banks settle payments in (i) New York or London if the payment obligation is calculated by reference to any LIBOR Rate, or (ii) New York, if the payment obligation is calculated by reference to any other rate.

(i)                                     “Maturity Date” shall mean September 1, 2025, which is the date which is ten (10) years following the date of this Note.

2.                                      Interest Rate Provisions.

(a)                                 Interest Rate.  The Loan shall bear interest from the date hereof until the Maturity Date at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or, at the option of the Bank after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) or after maturity, at the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined).

(b)                                 Interest Rate Determinations.  All interest rate determinations hereunder shall be made by the Bank and shall be deemed conclusive and binding upon the Borrower in the absence of manifest error.

3.                                      Repayment.

(a)                                 Repayment Schedule.  If not sooner paid or demanded as herein provided, and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, principal and interest shall be due and payable hereunder as follows:

Commencing on October 1, 2015 and continuing to be due on the first day of each calendar month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, unless and until adjusted as provided herein, Borrower shall be required to make (i) monthly payments of accrued interest on the $11,500,000 Initial Advance of the Loan, or so much thereof as shall be advanced and outstanding from time to time, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate; and (ii) monthly payments of principal, each in an amount as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein.

Commencing on the 1st day of the month following the date on which the Earn-Out (as defined in the Mortgage securing this Note) is advanced and outstanding from time to time, payments to be paid hereunder shall be adjusted to include (i) monthly payments of accrued interest on the Earn-Out, or so much thereof as shall be advanced; and (ii) monthly payments of principal, each in an amount to be provided in an updated Schedule when the Earn-Out is advanced.

3

(b)                                 Payment at Maturity.  The full amount of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with all interest accrued thereon, and all other amounts due and payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.

(c)                                  Form of Payment.  All amounts owing under this Note and interest thereon shall be payable in legal tender of the United States of America.

(d)                                 Evidence of Debt.  The Bank will enter an appropriate notation on its books and records evidencing the interest rate applicable to the outstanding balance hereof, each repayment on account of the principal thereof, and the amount of interest paid. Borrower agrees that, in the absence of manifest error, the books and records of the Bank shall constitute prima facie evidence of the amount owing to the Bank pursuant to this Note.

4.                                      Additional Charges.

(a)                                 Late Charges.  If any amount payable under this Note (except the amount due at the Maturity Date) is not paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Borrower shall pay to the Bank on demand an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such unpaid amount which Borrower acknowledges to be a reasonable late charge to compensate the Bank for the administrative costs of dealing with such late payment and for its loss of use of such funds.  Borrower also acknowledges that such late charge is a material inducement to the Bank to make the Loan evidenced by this Note, the Bank would not have made the Loan in the absence of the agreement of Borrower to pay such late charge and such late charge is not a penalty and represents a reasonable estimate of compensation to the Bank for losses resulting from Borrower’s default that are difficult to ascertain.

(b)                                 Expenses.  Borrower further promises to pay to the Bank, as incurred, and as an additional part of the unpaid principal balance, all reasonable costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred (i) in the preparation, protection, modification, collection, defense or enforcement of all or part of this Note or any guaranty hereof, or (ii) in the foreclosure or enforcement of any mortgage or security interest which may now or hereafter secure either the debt hereunder or any guaranty thereof, or (iii) with respect to any action reasonably taken to protect, defend, modify or sustain the lien of any such mortgage or security agreement, or (iv) with respect to any litigation or controversy arising from or connected with the enforcement of any provisions of this Note or any mortgage or security agreement or collateral which may now or hereafter secure this Note, or (v) with respect to any act reasonably taken to protect, defend, modify, enforce or release any of its rights or remedies with regard to, or otherwise effect collection of, any collateral which may now or in the future secure this Note, or with regard to or against Borrower or any endorser, guarantor or surety of this Note.

(c)                                  Default Rate.  If payment is not made when due or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, then for so long as such Event of

4

Default remains uncured, Borrower further promises to pay to Bank interest on the unpaid balance at the rate or rates of interest then in effect, plus five (5) percentage points per annum (the “Default Rate”) from the accelerated due date, if any, until payment in full (whether before or after judgment has been rendered with respect hereto) which amounts shall each become an additional part of the unpaid balance.

(d)                                 Additional Payments.  If Bank shall deem applicable to this Note, any requirement of any law of the United States of America, any regulation, order, interpretation, ruling, official directive or guideline (whether or not having the force of law) of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other board or governmental or administrative agency of the United States of America which shall impose, increase, modify or make applicable thereto or cause to be included in, any reserve, special deposit, calculation used in the computation of regulatory capital standards, assessment or other requirement which imposes on Bank any cost that is attributable to the maintenance hereof, then, and in each such event, Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof and the Borrower shall pay the Bank, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such notice, such amount as will compensate Bank for any such cost, which determination may be based upon the Bank’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such costs resulting from such events and shall be calculated in a manner consistent with the Bank’s practices for similar loans and similar borrowers.  In the event any such cost is a continuing cost, a fee payable to Bank may be imposed upon the Borrower periodically for so long as any such cost is deemed applicable to the Bank, in an amount determined by Bank to be necessary to compensate Bank for any such cost.  The determination by any Bank of the existence and amount of any such cost shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate or mitigate any costs attributable to the maintenance of the Loan.  If Lender is unable to eliminate such costs, Borrower shall have the right to prepay the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in full, but not in part, without prepayment charges.

5.                                      Prepayment.

(a)                                 Borrower may prepay the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in full but not in part, upon not less than ten (10) days written notice of the projected date of prepayment and upon concurrent payment to Bank of any and all Breakage Costs or damages incurred by the Bank in connection with such prepayment, and during the first two (2) years following the date of execution of this Note, upon payment of an additional prepayment fee in the amount of one (1%) percent of the amount so prepaid.

(b)                                 In the event that Borrower elects to prepay the Note in accordance with the terms set forth above, Borrower shall give Bank not less than ten (10) days prior written notice of its intent to prepay the Note.  Any amounts specified in the aforesaid prepayment notice shall, upon the giving of said notice, become due and payable at the time provided for prepayment in said

5

notice. Any prepayments permitted hereunder shall be applied to interest and other charges accrued under this Note to the day prepayment shall have been received by Bank, and then to principal, in the inverse order of the installments of principal payable under this Note.

(c)                                  If the maturity of this Note shall be accelerated for any reason, then a tender of payment by Borrower, or by anyone on behalf of Borrower, of the amount necessary to satisfy all sums due under this Note shall constitute an evasion of the payment terms of this Note and shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment under this Note, and any such prepayment, to the extent permitted by law, shall require the concurrent payment to Bank of the Breakage Costs.

6.                                      Events of Default.  An Event of Default shall be those events set forth in Section 19 of the Mortgage.

7.                                      Acceleration.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder, at the option of the Bank all principal outstanding hereunder, together with accrued interest thereon and charges incurred with respect thereto, shall become immediately due and payable, all without demand, presentment, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower. No remedy herein conferred upon the Bank or the holder of this Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Nothing contained herein shall in any way limit required notices to Borrower otherwise required in the Loan Documents.

8.                                      Set-off.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the Bank is hereby authorized at any time from time to time, without notice to Borrower to set-off and apply any and all deposits of Borrower (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), credits, collateral and property, but expressly excluding tenant security deposits, at any time held by, in transit to or in the safekeeping, custody or control of, the Bank or any entity under the control of or under common control with the Bank (and shall include any other obligation at any time owing by the Bank or any entity under the control of or under common control with the Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower) against any and all of the obligations of Borrower to the Bank now or hereafter existing hereunder, irrespective of whether or not the Bank shall have made any demand hereunder and even though such obligations may be contingent and unmatured. Upon making any such set-off, appropriation or application, the Bank agrees to notify Borrower thereof in writing, provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off or appropriation or application.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SET-OFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

9.                                      Collateral.  This Note and the indebtedness evidenced hereby are secured, inter alia, by that certain Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, and Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith, between Borrower, as mortgagor, and the Bank, as mortgagee (the

6

“Mortgage”).  The Mortgage constitutes a first priority lien on certain real and personal property, more particularly described therein located at 5220 Jaindl Boulevard, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania (the “Mortgaged Property”).

10.                               Sale of Interests.  Borrower acknowledges that Bank may (a) fund the Loan through an affiliate, (b) sell or transfer interests in the Loan and the Loan Documents to one or more participants or special purpose entities, (c) pledge Bank’s interests in the Loan and the Loan Documents as security for one or more loans obtained by Bank, and/or (d) sell or transfer Bank’s interests in the Loan and the Loan Documents in connection with a securitization transaction or otherwise, in each case at no cost to Borrower, and that all documentation, financial statements, appraisals, reports and other data, or copies thereof, related to any loan application or commitment, Borrower, the Mortgaged Property, and/or the Loan, may be exhibited to and reviewed by any party that is reviewing the Loan for the purposes of purchasing, valuing, rating or servicing the Loan, and Bank shall direct such party to keep all such information in confidence to the same extent as is required of Bank, but Bank shall have no obligation to oversee the actions of said party or any liability to Borrower in the event said party does not so comply.  Upon any transfer or proposed transfer contemplated above and by the Loan Documents, at Bank’s request, Borrower shall provide a true and correct estoppel certificate to the reviewing party or parties in such form, substance and detail as Bank or the reviewing party or parties may reasonably require, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to incur any costs in connection with any such transfer.

11.                               Rights of Bank.  In addition to any rights the Bank may have hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under any other instrument, document or agreement executed by Borrower which may now or hereafter evidence, govern or secure this Note, the Bank shall have all the rights of a creditor under the laws of the State of Connecticut and the case law interpreting the same.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed as limited or restricting any rights the Bank may have, whether statutory or otherwise, including, without limitation, all rights of set-off as may exist under law.
