Borrower: | Medalist Fund II-B, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company 1051 E Cary Street, Suite 601 Richmond, VA 23219 | Lender: | THE OLD POINT NATIONAL BANK OF PHOEBUS Peninsula Lending 1 West Mellen Street Hampton, VA 23663 |
Principal Amount: $4,495,000.00 | Date of Note: June 7, 2021 |
PROMISE TO PAY. Medalist Fund II-B, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Borrower") promises to pay to THE OLD POINT NATIONAL BANK OF PHOEBUS ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Four Million Four Hundred Ninety-five Thousand & 00/100 Dollars ($4,495,000.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance from June 7, 2021, until paid in full.
PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in accordance with the following payment schedule, which calculates interest on the unpaid principal balances as described in the "INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD" paragraph using the interest rates described in this paragraph: 12 monthly consecutive interest payments, beginning August 1, 2021, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an interest rate of 4.000%; 47 monthly consecutive principal and interest payments of $23,873.37 each, beginning August 1, 2022, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an interest rate of 4.000%; and one principal and interest payment of $4,067,885.93 on July 1, 2026, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an interest rate of 4.000%. This estimated final payment is based on the assumption that all payments will be made exactly as scheduled; the actual final payment will be for all principal and accrued interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts under this Note. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any escrow or reserve account payments as required under any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security instrument or security agreement securing this Note; then to any late charges; and then to any unpaid collection costs. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. All payments must be made in U.S. dollars and must be received by Lender consistent with any written payment instructions provided by Lender. If a payment is made consistent with Lender's payment instructions but received after 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time, Lender will credit Borrower's payment on the next business day.
INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All interest payable under this Note is computed using this method.
PREPAYMENT PENALTY. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. Upon prepayment of this Note, Lender is entitled to the following prepayment penalty: The prepayment premium shall apply throughout maturity. If the Borrower prepays this Loan with the proceeds of a Loan from another financial institution prior to its maturity, the prepayment must be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the outstanding principal balance. OPNB will receive Last Look and first Right of Refusal for any refinance.
Except for the foregoing, Borrower may pay all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: THE OLD POINT NATIONAL BANK OF PHOEBUS, 1 West Mellen Street Hampton, VA 23663.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 7 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment.
INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, the interest rate on this Note shall be increased by adding an additional 4.000 percentage point margin ("Default Rate Margin"). The Default Rate Margin shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no default. After maturity, or after this Note would have matured had there been no default, the Default Rate Margin will continue to apply to the final interest rate described in this Note. However, in no event will the interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate limitations under applicable law.

Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this Note.
Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the related documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.

However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

This includes all accounts Borrower holds jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the indebtedness against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender's option, to administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender's charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.
