[_______________]      [•________], ___

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned “Maker” promises to pay to the order of Pioneer Financial Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation (hereinafter called “Lender”), at its main office, ON DEMAND, the principal sum of [_______________] Dollars or, if less, the aggregate unpaid amounts of all principal advanced to the Maker by the Lender under this Note, together with interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof from time to time outstanding from date(s) of disbursement(s) until paid, at the rate set forth below. Amounts outstanding under this Note will bear interest (i) from the date hereof through [_______] at [__]% and (ii) at all times thereafter, at the option of the Maker, at a rate per annum equal to:

The Maker may, upon notice or annotation in its books and records (such notice or annotation, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”): (i) elect as of any Business Day (as defined below) to convert this Note (or any portion of this Note) from a Base Rate Note to a LIBOR Note, or (ii) elect, as of the last day of an Interest Period, to continue this Note (or any portion of this Note) as a LIBOR Note for a new Interest Period or to convert this Note (or any portion of this Note) from a LIBOR Note to a Base Rate Note.

Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (i) the proposed date of conversion or continuation, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Base Rate Note or LIBOR Note to be converted or continued, (iii) the interest rate resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation and (iv) in the case of a conversion into, or continuation of, a LIBOR Note, the duration of the requested Interest Period therefor. If upon the expiration of the Interest Period, the Maker has failed to select timely a new applicable Interest Period, the Maker shall be deemed to have elected to convert this Note into a one-month LIBOR Rate Note effective on the last day of such Interest Period.

Unless Lender, in its sole discretion, may from time to time otherwise direct, all payments shall be applied first to payment of accrued interest, and then to reduction of the principal sum due hereunder. Accrued interest on each Base Rate Note shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month and on demand. Accrued interest on each LIBOR Note shall be payable monthly on the last day of each one month anniversary of such Interest Period relating to such LIBOR Note, upon a prepayment of such LIBOR Note, and on demand. This Note shall bear interest after demand, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, at a rate of interest equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate stated above until paid in full, and such interest shall be compounded annually if not paid annually. Any part of the outstanding principal balance hereof may be paid prior to demand and if less than the full amount due hereunder is paid, the undersigned may from time to time until demand receive, but the Lender has no commitment to make, further disbursements hereunder; provided, however, the aggregate amount of all principal amounts outstanding hereunder shall at no time exceed the face amount of this Note; and provided further, that each and every disbursement made under this Note shall be at the Lender’s sole discretion. In the event the undersigned pays any part of the principal balance hereof prior to demand or, in accordance with the terms hereof, receives any additional disbursements of principal hereunder, the principal amount due hereunder shall presumptively be the last amount stated in the Lender’s books and records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned hereby authorize(s) the Lender to make notations on a schedule of disbursements and payments (or Lender’s computer-generated grid) from time to time to evidence payments and disbursements hereunder.

The Lender shall record in its records, the date and amount of each advance hereunder, each repayment or conversion thereof and, in the case of each LIBOR Note, the dates on which each Interest Period for such Note shall begin and end.  The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount outstanding hereunder owing and unpaid.  The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations and liabilities of the Maker hereunder to repay the principal amount of the Note hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.

Without limitation on the ON DEMAND maturity of this Note, the holder may, without demand or notice of any kind, declare this Note immediately due and payable in full at any time that the holder deems itself insecure for any reason whatsoever. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events of default: (1)  dissolution of, or termination of existence of the Maker; (2) the failure of the Maker to pay debts as they mature; or (3) appointment of a receiver of or for any part of the property of the Maker, an assignment for the benefit of creditors by the Maker; or the commencement of any proceedings under bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against the Maker then this Note and all other obligations of the Maker to the holder hereof shall immediately become due and payable in full without notice or demand.

For purposes of this Note, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Base Rate” means at any time the greater of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, or (b) the Prime Rate; provided, that if the Base Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Note.

“Business Day” means a day on which commercial banking institutions are open for commercial banking business and, in the case of a Business Day which relates to a LIBOR Note, on which dealings are carried on in the London interbank Eurodollar market.

“Federal Funds Rate” means, for any day, a fluctuating interest rate equal for each day during such period to the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers, as published for such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, for the next preceding Business Day) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or if such rate is not so published for any day which is a Business Day, the average of the quotations for such day on such transactions received by the Lender from three Federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by the Lender. The Lender’s determination of such rate shall be binding and conclusive absent manifest error.

“Interest Period” means the period commencing on the date the Note is continued as or converted into a LIBOR Note and ending on the date one, two, or three months thereafter as selected by the Maker pursuant to the terms of the Note; provided that:

“LIBOR Rate” means a rate of interest equal to (a) the per annum rate of interest at which United States dollar deposits in an amount comparable to the LIBOR Note amount and for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period are offered in the London Interbank Eurodollar market at 11:00 a.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period (or three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period if the banks in London, England were not open and dealing in offshore United States dollars on such second preceding Business Day), as displayed in the Bloomberg Financial Markets system (or other authoritative source selected by the

Lender in its reasonable discretion) or, if the Bloomberg Financial Markets system or another authoritative source is not available, as the LIBOR Rate is otherwise determined by the Lender in its reasonable discretion, divided by (b) a number determined by subtracting 1.00 from the then stated maximum reserve percentage for determining reserves to be maintained by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for Eurocurrency funding or liabilities as defined in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor category of liabilities under Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), such rate to remain fixed for such Interest Period. If at any time the LIBOR Rate is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Note. The Lender’s determination of the LIBOR Rate shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

“Prime Rate” means, for any day, the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Lender as its prime rate (whether or not such rate is actually charged by the Lender), which is not intended to be the Lender’s lowest or most favorable rate of interest at any one time. Any change in the Prime Rate announced by the Lender shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of such change; provided that the Lender shall not be obligated to give notice of any change in the Prime Rate.

The interpretation of this instrument and the rights and remedies of the parties hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Missouri without reference to conflicts of law principals thereunder.

Any failure by the holder hereof to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any other time and from time to time thereafter.

All headings or titles appearing in this Note are used as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of the provisions hereof.

This not is not secured by any asset of Maker or any other person or entity and at no time shall this Note be secured by any asset of Maker or any other person.

Lender may not assign this Note and all rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Maker’s then-existing senior lender (or agent therefor).

The undersigned, MidCountry Financial Corp., a Georgia corporation (“Guarantor”) has reviewed Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among Pioneer Financial Services, Inc., a Missouri corporation, Pioneer Funding, Inc., a Nevada corporation, PSLF, Inc., a Missouri corporation, and Pioneer Services Sales Finance, Inc., a Nevada corporation, jointly and severally (individually and collectively, the “Company”), the Required Lenders, and The PrivateBank and Trust Company, as administrative agent for the Lenders, (the “Agreement”), and all other documents and financial statements the undersigned deems necessary relating to the Company. The undersigned has signed the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement dated as of December 23, 2015 (the “Guaranty”). Capitalized terms used herein, but not defined herein, unless otherwise noted, shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement or, if not defined therein, as defined in the Guaranty.

Guarantor acknowledges receipt of the Agreement, acknowledges and consents to all changes set forth in the Agreement, and agrees that all such changes are in the best interests of Company and Guarantor. In consideration of financial accommodations granted and which may hereafter be granted to Company by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and/or the Lenders, in consideration of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders’ reliance on the Guaranty, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally reaffirms pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty, Guarantor’s unconditional continuing guarantee of the payment and performance of all Guarantor Obligations and the Company Obligations, and the grant of a Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on all of the Holdings Collateral, and the undersigned further agrees that the validity and enforceability of the Guaranty is not and shall not be affected in any way or manner by the Agreement.

Guarantor hereby unconditionally reaffirms, covenants, represents, warrants, acknowledges and confirms to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that: (i) the Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party is in full force and effect, (ii) this Reaffirmation has been duly authorized by all requisite action of Guarantor, (iii) no consents are necessary from any third Person for Guarantor’s execution, delivery or performance of this Reaffirmation which have not been obtained, (iv) this Reaffirmation, the Guaranty, and each other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws related to creditors’ rights generally or by the application of equity principles, (v) the Guaranty, and each other Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party are each hereby reaffirmed and ratified without qualification and are and remain in full force and effect, (vi) the Liens granted by Guarantor in favor of the Administrative Agent under the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents, secure all the Company Obligations and all the Guarantor Obligations, are perfected, continue in full force and effect, and are hereby reaffirmed, and Guarantor agrees that to the extent that any such Loan Document purports to grant, assign or pledge to the Administrative Agent a Lien on, any asset as security for the Company Obligations and the Guarantor Obligations, such pledge, assignment and/or grant of the Lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, and (vii) each of the representations and warranties made by the Guarantor in the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which Guarantor is a party are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof (except that if a qualifier relating to materiality or Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true, correct and complete in all respects as written) and to the extent any representation and warranty is made as of an earlier date, such representation and warranty is true and correct in all material respects (except that if a qualifier relating to materiality or Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true, correct and complete in all respects as written) as of such earlier date.

Guarantor hereby unconditionally reaffirms, covenants, represents, warrants, acknowledges and confirms to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that, as of the date hereof, Guarantor has no defenses to its obligations under Guaranty, and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, arising out of or relating to any facts or circumstances existing on or before the date hereof, known or unknown, to the Guarantor, Company or any Loan Party, and as of the date hereof, Guarantor has no claim against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising from or in connection with the Guaranty or the other Loan Documents to which it is a party.

The Administrative Agent and Guarantor agree that notwithstanding anything contained in the Guaranty to the contrary, Guarantor shall not be deemed under the Guaranty to be a guarantor of any Hedging Obligations to the extent that the providing of such guaranty by Guarantor would violate the Commodity Exchange Act by virtue of Guarantor’s failure to constitute an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act at the time such guaranty becomes effective with respect to such Hedging Obligations. Guarantor shall not be deemed under the Guaranty to be a guarantor of any Excluded Hedging Obligations.

Guarantor has caused this Unconditional Reaffirmation of Guaranty to be duly executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of May 31, 2017.
