DEFINITIONS.
a. | The term "Affiliate" shall have the meaning as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101, as in effect from time to time, except that the term "Borrower" shall be substituted for the term "Debtor" therein. |
b. | The term "Loan Documents", as used in this Note and the other loan documents, refers to all documents executed in connection with or related to the loan evidenced by this Note and any prior notes which evidence all or any portion of the loan evidenced by this Note, and any letters of credit issued pursuant to any loan agreement to which this Note is subject, any applications for such letters of credit and any other documents executed in connection therewith or related thereto, and may include, without limitation, a loan agreement, this Note, guaranty agreements, security agreements, security instruments, financing statements, mortgage instruments, and any renewals or modifications, whenever any of the foregoing are executed. |
c. | The term "Obligations", as used in this Note and the other Loan Documents, refers to any and all indebtedness and other obligations under this Note, all other obligations under any other Loan Document(s), whenever executed. |
1 |
c. | The term "Subsidiary" shall mean any entity or business in which Borrower holds, directly or indirectly, a controlling interest. |
d. | All terms that are used but not otherwise defined in any of the Loan Documents shall have the definitions provided in the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Florida. |
LOAN AGREEMENT. This Note is subject to the provisions of that certain Loan Agreement between Lender and Borrower of even date herewith, as modified from time to time.
USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the loan(s) evidenced by this Note for working capital purposes of Borrower.
SECURITY. Borrower has granted or will grant Lender a security interest in the collateral described in the Loan Documents and such other security instruments as are executed from time to time.
INTEREST RATE. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from the date hereof at nine percent (9%) per annum (the "Interest Rate").
DEFAULT RATE. In addition to all other rights contained in this Note, if a Default (as defined herein) occurs and as long as a Default continues, all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Interest Rate plus four percent (4%) (the "Default Rate"). The Default Rate shall also apply from acceleration until the Obligations or any judgment thereon is paid in full.
INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION (ACTUAL/360). Interest and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the applicable period ("Actual/360 Computation"). The Actual/360 Computation determines the annual effective interest yield by taking the stated (nominal) rate for a year's period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate exceeding the nominal rate.
REPAYMENT TERMS. This Note shall have a term of four (4) years and be fully amortized, as detailed on the amortization scheduled attached hereto as Exhibit B. This Note shall be due and payable in consecutive equal monthly payments of principal plus accrued interest of Twelve Thousand Four Hundred and Forty-Two and 55/100 Dollars ($12,442.55) (the "Monthly Loan Payment Amount"), commencing on September 15, 2012, and continuing on the fifteenth day of each month thereafter (each, a "Payment Date") until fully paid on August 15, 2016 (the "Maturity Date"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note or any other Loan Document, the outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any and all other sums due hereunder, shall mature and be due and payable to Lender on the Maturity Date.
PREPAYMENT PENALTY. In the event of prepayment of this Note, in whole or in part, on or before the fourth anniversary date of this Note, a prepayment penalty shall be assessed equal five percent (5%) of the principal amount prepaid.

ADDITIONAL ROYALTY PAYMENT. In addition to the Monthly Loan Payment Amount, Borrower shall pay to Lender (or its successors and/or assigns) a royalty (the "Royalty Payment") equal to one percent (1%) of all revenues (whether products sales, distribution fees or any other revenues) derived by Borrower or any of its Affiliates from the sale or distribution of all products related to the RapiMeds® product line (the "Rapi Med Sales Amount"). The Royalty Payment shall be payable by the Borrower to the Lender from the date hereof through the fourth anniversary of this Note whether or not this Note is prepaid or satisfied on the Maturity Date. The Royalty Payment shall be accompanied by reasonable written detail of the basis therefor. Such Royalty Payments shall be payable each calendar quarter, shall be subject to a late payment fee of the greater of 10% or 2% over the Company's then-applicable cost of borrowing in the event not paid within 60 days of the end of the applicable quarter, Lender shall have the right to audit the Royalty Payments no more than four times per year (and not more than one time in any fiscal quarter or no audit shall be within 60 days of any other audit hereunder), and any underpayments shall be immediately due and payable upon conclusion of the audit, plus additional interest from the 60th day following the end of the applicable quarter with respect to which the underpaid amount was due.
APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Except with respect to the Royalty Payment, monies received by Lender from any source for application toward payment of the Obligations shall be applied to accrued interest and then to principal. If a Default (as defined below) occurs, monies may be applied to the Obligations in any manner or order deemed appropriate by Lender. If any payment received by Lender under this Note or other Loan Documents is rescinded, avoided or for any reason returned by Lender because of any adverse claim or threatened action, the returned payment shall remain payable as an obligation of all persons liable under this Note or other Loan Documents as though such payment had not been made.
LATE CHARGE. If any payments are not timely made, Borrower shall also pay to Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of each payment past due for five (5) or more days. Acceptance by Lender of any late payment without an accompanying late charge shall not be deemed a waiver of Lender's right to collect such late charge or to collect a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.
ATTORNEYS' FEES AND OTHER COLLECTION COSTS. Borrower shall pay all of Lender's reasonable expenses actually incurred to enforce or collect any of the Obligations including, without limitation, reasonable arbitration, paralegals', attorneys' and experts' fees and expenses, whether incurred without the commencement of a suit, in any trial, arbitration, or administrative proceeding, or in any appellate or bankruptcy proceeding.
USURY. If at any time the effective interest rate under this Note would, but for this paragraph, exceed the maximum lawful rate, the effective interest rate under this Note shall be the maximum lawful rate, and any amount received by Lender in excess of such rate shall be applied to principal and then to fees and expenses, or, if no such amounts are owing, returned to Borrower.
DEFAULT. If any of the following occurs, a default under this Note (a "Default") shall exist:
a. | Nonpayment; Nonperformance. The failure to make any payment, or perform any obligation, under this Note or any other Loan Document within ten (10) business days of the due date, which failure is not cured within ten (10) days of the date that written notice of such failure is given by Lender to Borrower. |
3 |
b. | False Warranty. A warranty or representation made or deemed made in the Loan Documents or furnished to Lender in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note proves materially false, or if of a continuing nature, becomes materially false. |
c. | Cross Default. At Lender's option, any default in payment or performance of any obligation under any other loans, contracts or agreements of Borrower, any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, any general partner of or the holder(s) of the majority ownership interests of Borrower with Lender or its affiliates, which default materially adversely affects Borrower's ability to perform its obligations under this Note or any other Loan Document. |
d. | Cessation; Bankruptcy. The death of, appointment of a guardian for, dissolution of, termination of existence of, loss of good standing status by, appointment of a receiver for, assignment for the benefit of creditors of, or commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or against Borrower or its Subsidiaries or guarantors, if any, or any general partner of or the holder(s) of the majority ownership interests of Borrower, or any party to the Loan Documents (other than the Lender). |
e. | Material Capital Structure or Business Alteration. Without the prior written consent of Lender (which consent, for purposes of this clause, shall be deemed to be given if Lender's representative on the Board of Directors of Borrower gives his approval in connection with action by the Board of Directors on the applicable matter), (i) a material alteration in the kind or type of Borrower's business or that of Borrower's Subsidiaries, if any; (ii) the sale of substantially all of the business or assets of Borrower, any of Borrower's Subsidiaries or any guarantor, or a material portion (10% or more) of such business or assets if such a sale is outside the ordinary course of business of Borrower, or any of Borrower's Subsidiaries or any guarantor, or more than 50% of the outstanding stock or voting power of or in any such entity in a single transaction or a series of transactions; (iii) the acquisition of substantially all of the business or assets or more than 50% of the outstanding stock or voting power of any other entity excluding Marlex Pharmaceuticals Inc.; or (iv) the entry into any merger or consolidation by the Borrower or any of Borrower's Subsidiaries. |
REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. If a Default occurs under this Note, Lender may, at any time thereafter, take any of the following actions: (a) foreclose its security interest or lien against any or all of Borrower's assets and personal property without notice; (b) accelerate the maturity of this Note and, at Lender's option, any or all other Obligations, whereupon this Note and the accelerated Obligations shall be immediately due and payable; provided, however, if the Default is based upon a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding commenced by or against Borrower or any guarantor or endorser of this Note, all Obligations shall automatically and immediately be due and payable; and/or (c) exercise any rights and remedies as provided under the Note and other Loan Documents, or as provided by law or equity. The remedies of the Lender set forth above shall be cumulative.
WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS. No waivers, amendments or modifications of this Note and other Loan Documents shall be valid unless in writing and signed by an officer of Lender. No waiver by Lender of any Default shall operate as a waiver of any other Default or the same Default on a future occasion. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Note and other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

Further, each agrees that Lender may (i) extend, modify or renew this Note or make a novation of the loan evidenced by this Note, and/or (ii) grant releases, compromises or indulgences with respect to any collateral securing this Note, or with respect to Borrower or any other person liable under this Note or any other Loan Documents, all without notice to or consent of Borrower and other such person, and without affecting the liability of Borrower and other such person; provided, Lender may not extend, modify or renew this Note or make a novation of the loan evidenced by this Note without the consent of the Borrower, or if there is more than one Borrower, without the consent of at least one Borrower; and further provided, if there is more than one Borrower, Lender may not enter into a modification of this Note which increases the burdens of a Borrower without the consent of that Borrower.
