During the Line of Credit Availability Period, Borrower may repay principal amounts and reborrow them. Borrower agrees that Borrower will not permit the outstanding balance under the Line of Credit to exceed the Line of Credit Limit. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, Borrower may request one year extensions of the Line of Credit Availability Period within three hundred ninety (390) days of the then applicable Line of Credit Expiration Date, but Bank has no obligation to grant the extension.

3. TERMS

3.1 Availability Period.

a. Availability Period Line of Credit. Borrower may draw on the Line of Credit during the Line of Credit Availability Period, unless (i) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) Borrower has failed to satisfy any condition hereunder to such borrowing and Bank has refused to waive such condition.

3.2 Interest Rate.

a. Line of Credit Interest Rate. Interest on advances on the Line of Credit shall accrue at the Prime Rate (P+0.00%) per annum in effect from time to time but in no event shall the interest rate be less than four percent (4.00%) per annum (the “Regular Line of Credit Interest Rate”). Any changes in the Regular Line of Credit Interest Rate resulting from a change in the Prime Rate shall take effect without notice at the time the Prime Rate is set.

b. Line of Credit Optional Interest. Instead of the Regular Line of Credit Interest Rate, Borrower may elect to have up to five (5) advances on the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit (each a “Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion”) during the Line of Credit Availability Period bear interest at the LIBO Rate, as defined below, plus two and one-half percent (L+2.50%), but in no event shall the interest rate be less than four percent (4.00%) per annum (the “Optional Line of Credit Interest Rate”) during an interest rate period designated by Borrower (the “Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period”). Borrower shall not select a Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period that would extend beyond the Line of Credit Expiration Date. Each interest rate is a rate per annum. At the end of any Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period, the interest rate will revert to the Regular Line of Credit Interest Rate, unless Borrower has designated another Optional Line of Credit Interest Rate for that Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion.

Designation of a Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion shall be made by delivery or telephone facsimile transmission to Bank of written notice signed by an Authorized Officer of such election, including designation of the amount of the proposed Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion, the proposed Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period and the proposed effective date of the election. The notice shall be given at least three (3) Banking Days in advance of the effective date of the election. The election shall also be subject to the following requirements:

i. The Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period during which the LIBO Rate will be in effect will be three (3) months, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In determining a Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period, a month means a period that starts on one Banking Day in a month and ends on and includes the day preceding the numerically corresponding day in the next month. For any month in which there is no such numerically corresponding day, then as to that month, such day shall be deemed to be the last calendar day of such month. Any Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period which would otherwise end on a non-Banking Day shall end on the next succeeding Banking Day unless that is the first day of a month, in which event such Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Banking Day.

ii. Each Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion shall be for an amount not less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00).

iii. The “LIBO Rate” shall mean, for each Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period with respect to a Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion, the per annum rate determined by the Bank as of the first day of the Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period to be equal to the ninety (90) day rate at which U.S. dollar deposits can be acquired by Bank in the London Interbank Eurocurrency Market two (2) Banking Days before the commencement of such Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period in an amount comparable to such Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion.

iv. No Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion bearing interest at the LIBO Rate may be converted to a different rate during the Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period.

v. Each prepayment of a Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion, whether voluntary, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, will be accompanied by the amount of accrued interest on the amount prepaid, and a prepayment fee equal to the amount (if any) by which the additional interest which would have been payable on the amount prepaid had it not been paid until the last day of the Line of Credit Applicable Interest Period exceeds the interest which would have been recoverable by Bank by placing the amount prepaid on deposit in the LIBO Rate Market for a period starting on the date on which it was prepaid and ending on the last day of the interest period for such Line of Credit LIBO Rate Portion. Any such calculation shall be made by Bank in the same manner in which such calculation is made in respect to all other customers of Bank and Bank shall, upon the request of Borrower, deliver to Borrower all backup information showing how any such prepayment fee is calculated.

For the Line of Credit, Borrower agrees to pay a fee (“Unused Commitment Fee”) equal to the product of one-half of one percent (0.50%) multiplied by the difference between Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and the amount of credit extended to Borrower, determined by the Average Loan Balance, as defined below, maintained during the Line of Credit Availability Period. For purposes of this section, the “Average Loan Balance” is calculated by dividing the sum of the daily loan balances on the Line of Credit during the applicable period by the number of days in that period. This fee is due and payable each calendar quarter in arrears, and is due on the tenth (10th) day of each of the following months during the Line of Credit Availability Period: October, January, April and July, respectively, except a prorated fee for the first partial quarter shall be due in October, 2011 and for the final quarter shall be due and payable on the Line of Credit Expiration Date.

Bank shall not exercise the appointment as provided in this Section except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, and by the different parties on separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

11.11 Further Assurances. Borrower shall, at its expense and without expense to Bank, do, execute and deliver such further acts and documents as Bank from time to time reasonably requires for the assuring to Bank the rights created or intended to be created by this Agreement, the perfection or priority of Bank's Liens, and for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of this Agreement or any document executed in connection with this Agreement.

11.12 Singular/Plural. Terms defined in the singular shall also have their meanings in the plural as the context of this Agreement requires.

11.13 Revival Clause. If any of the payments of money or transfers of property made to Bank by Borrower hereunder or under the Note should for any reason subsequently be declared to be “fraudulent” or a “voidable preference” within the meaning of any state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferential, or otherwise voidable or recoverable, in whole or in part, for any reason, under the Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law (collectively referred to herein as "Voidable Transfers"), and Bank is required to repay or restore the amount of any such Voidable Transfers, or any portion thereof, then, as to the amount repaid or restored pursuant to any such Voidable Transfer (including all costs, expenses and attorneys' fees of Bank related thereto, including, without limitation, relief from stay or similar proceedings), the liability of Borrower shall automatically be revived, reinstated and restored in such amount or amounts, and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made to Bank. Nothing set forth herein is an admission that any such Voidable Transfer has occurred. Borrower expressly acknowledges that Bank may rely upon advice of counsel, and if so advised by counsel, may settle, without defending, any action to avoid any alleged Voidable Transfer, and that upon settlement, Borrower shall again be liable for any deficiency resulting from such settlement as provided in this Section.

11.14 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of the Borrower contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate or other writing delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document, will survive the making of each advance and the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and have been or will be relied upon by Bank, notwithstanding any investigation made by Bank or on its behalf.

11.15 Provisional Remedies. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to limit any right that Bank may have under this Agreement or at law to exercise any provisional remedies that it may have under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents as a result of any Event of Default hereunder (including, without limitation, the right to conduct a non-judicial foreclosure sale, the right to seize any personal property collateral and the right to seek the appointment of a receiver).
