1. Promise to Pay. ON DEMAND (or as otherwise provided in this Note), FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SENSUS HEALTHCARE, INC., a Delaware corporation (singularly and collectively, if more than one party, “Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of COMERICA BANK (herein called “Bank”), at any office of Bank in the Applicable State, the principal sum of TEN MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($10,000,000.00), or so much of said sum as has been advanced and is then outstanding under this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due Bank hereunder.
2. Payments; Interest.
2.1. Payment Date; Computation Period. Unless sooner demanded, accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal balance of each outstanding Advance hereunder shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month, from the date made until the same is paid in full (whether in accordance with the terms hereof, by acceleration, or otherwise). Interest accruing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed, and in such computation, effect shall be given to any change in the Applicable Interest Rate as a result of any change in the interest rate on the date of each such change.
2.2. Interest Rate. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Note, the unpaid principal balance of all Indebtedness outstanding under this Note from time to time shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate. No interest shall accrue under this Note until the date of the first Advance made by Bank; after that, interest on all Advances shall accrue and be computed on the principal balance outstanding from time to time under this Note in accordance with the terms hereof until the same is paid in full.
2.3. Default Rate; Late Payments. Upon demand and from and after the occurrence of any Default hereunder, and so long as any such Default remains unremedied or uncured thereafter, the Indebtedness outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate of three percent (3%) above the otherwise Applicable Interest Rate, which interest shall be payable upon demand. In addition to the foregoing, a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of each late payment hereunder may be charged on any payment not received by Bank within ten (10) calendar days after the payment due date therefor, but acceptance of payment of any such charge shall not constitute a waiver of any Default hereunder.
2.4. Business Day. In the event that any payment under this Note becomes due and payable on any day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, to the extent applicable, interest shall continue to accrue and be payable thereon during such extension at the rates set forth in this Note.
2.5. Legal Tender. All payments to be made by Borrower to Bank under or pursuant to this Note shall be in immediately available funds in United States dollars, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff, and in the event that any payments submitted hereunder are in funds not available until collected, said payments shall continue to bear interest until collected.
2.6. Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall the per annum interest payable under this Note at any time exceed the Maximum Rate (as defined below).
2.7. No Responsibility for Changes to the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate. Borrower acknowledges that (i) the methods of calculation, publication schedule, rate revision practices, or availability of the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate at any time may change without notice, and (ii) the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate may be withdrawn, modified, or amended without notice. Bank does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, or any other matter related to the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate. Each determination by Bank of the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
2.8. Rate Conforming Changes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, Bank shall have the right to make Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, any amendments or modifications to any Loan Document implementing or evidencing such Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Borrower.

2.9. Demand Facility. Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that this Note is a demand note and matures upon issuance, and that the Indebtedness hereunder shall be payable upon demand (unless earlier payment is required in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note), and that Bank may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice and without reason and whether or not any Default shall have occurred and/or exist under this Note, demand that this Note and the Indebtedness hereunder be immediately paid in full. Bank may from time to time make demand for partial payments under this Note and these demands shall not preclude Bank from demanding at any time that this Note be immediately paid in full. Further, the demand nature of this Note shall not be deemed to be modified, limited or otherwise affected by any reference to any Default in this Note, and to the extent that there are any references to any Default(s) hereunder, such references are for the purpose of permitting Bank to accelerate any Indebtedness not on a demand basis and to receive interest at the applicable default rate provided herein or in any other Loan Document.
3. Advances.
3.1. Generally. This Note is a note under which Advances, repayments and re-Advances may be made from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of this Note.
3.2. Committed Advances. AT NO TIME SHALL BANK BE UNDER ANY OBLIGATION TO MAKE ANY ADVANCES TO BORROWER PURSUANT TO THIS NOTE (NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED IN THIS NOTE OR ELSEWHERE TO THE CONTRARY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IF BANK SUPPLIES BORROWER WITH A BORROWING FORMULA) IN THE EVENT THAT ANY DEFAULT, OR ANY CONDITION OR EVENT WHICH, WITH THE GIVING OF NOTICE OR THE RUNNING OF TIME, OR BOTH, WOULD CONSTITUTE A DEFAULT, SHALL HAVE OCCURRED AND BE CONTINUING OR EXIST, IN WHICH EVENT, BANK, AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME, WITHOUT NOTICE, AND IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, MAY REFUSE TO MAKE ADVANCES TO BORROWER WITHOUT INCURRING ANY LIABILITY DUE TO THIS REFUSAL AND WITHOUT AFFECTING BORROWER’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS NOTE FOR ANY AND ALL AMOUNTS ADVANCED.
3.3. Evidence of Advances. The amount and funding date of each Advance, the Applicable Interest Rate thereon and the amount and date of any repayment thereof shall be noted on Bank’s records, which records shall be conclusive evidence of the foregoing, absent manifest error; provided, however, any failure by Bank to make, or any delay in making, any such notation, or any error in any such notation, shall not relieve Borrower of its/their obligations to repay Bank all amounts payable by Borrower to Bank under or pursuant to this Note, when due in accordance with the terms hereof.
3.4. Requests for Advances. Subject to Section 3.2, Borrower may make a Request hereunder, subject to the following: (a) Bank shall not have made demand hereunder and no Default, or any condition or event which, with the giving of notice or the running of time, or both, would constitute a Default, shall have occurred and be continuing or will exist upon the making of the requested Advance; (b) Borrower shall deliver to Bank each such Request duly completed and executed by Borrower setting forth the information required on the Request form attached hereto as Exhibit “A” by the Applicable Time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of the requested Advance (or a shorter period if agreed to by Bank in its sole discretion), which date must be a Business Day; (c) after giving effect to the requested Advance, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Advances outstanding under this Note shall not exceed the Loan Amount; and (d) a Request, once delivered or submitted to Bank, shall not be revocable by Borrower.
Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, (a) $50,000.00 of Borrower’s availability under this Note will not be permitted to be advanced to Borrower until Bank receives written evidence, satisfactory to Bank in its sole but reasonable discretion, that the UCC-1 Financing Statement in favor of the U.S. Small Business Administration, filed with the Florida Secured Transaction Registry as Document # 20200404066X, has been terminated of record, and (b) the maximum availability permitted to be advanced to Borrower under this Note is limited to $3,500,000.00 until Bank receives and approves, in its sole but reasonable discretion, the audit of Borrower’s accounts receivable.
3.5. Alternate Requests for Advances. In the event that Borrower is unable to request Advances hereunder through Bank’s loan management system, Advances hereunder may be requested by delivery or submission to Bank by hand delivery, first class mail, overnight courier, facsimile, email or other means of delivery acceptable to Bank, of a written Request duly completed and executed by Borrower. Advances hereunder may be requested in Borrower’s discretion by telephonic notice to Bank. Any Advance requested by telephonic notice shall be confirmed by Borrower that same day by submission to Bank of a written Request, as provided herein. Borrower acknowledge(s) that if Bank makes an Advance based on a request made by telephone, facsimile, email or other means of delivery (other than by hand delivery, first class mail or overnight courier), it shall be for Borrower’s convenience and all risks involved in the use of any such procedure shall be borne by Borrower, and Borrower expressly agree(s) to indemnify and hold Bank harmless therefor. Bank shall have no duty to confirm the authority of anyone requesting an Advance by telephone, facsimile, email or any such other means of delivery. In the event that Borrower elect(s) to request Advances by telephonic notice, facsimile, email or other means of delivery acceptable to Bank, Borrower acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that Bank may impose or require such verification, authentication and other procedures as Bank may require from time to time.
4. Prepayments. Borrower may prepay all or any part of the outstanding balance of any Indebtedness hereunder at any time without premium or penalty. Any prepayment hereunder shall also be accompanied by the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid.
5. Unavailability of Applicable Interest Rate; Change of Law.
5.1. Generally. If, at any time, Bank’s obligation to maintain any of the Indebtedness hereunder at an Applicable Interest Rate based on the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate is suspended in accordance with the terms of this Note, then (a) the Prime Referenced Rate at such time will replace the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate for all purposes hereunder, (b) the Applicable Interest Rate hereunder in respect of such Indebtedness will be the Applicable Interest Rate based upon the Prime Referenced Rate, and (c) Bank shall have the right to make Rate Conforming Changes as provided in Section 2.8, in each case, without any further action or consent of Borrower.
-2-
5.2. Bank Unable to Determine the Applicable Interest Rate. If, at any time, Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes) that (a) Bank is unable to determine or ascertain the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate, or (b) the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate will not adequately and fairly cover or reflect the cost to Bank of maintaining any of the Indebtedness under this Note (including, without limitation, as a result of the alteration of the methods of calculation or availability of the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate), Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. Thereafter, until Bank notifies Borrower that the foregoing conditions or circumstances no longer exist, the right of Borrower to request a Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate-based Advance and any obligation of Bank to maintain any of the Indebtedness hereunder at an Applicable Interest Rate based on the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate, shall be suspended, and the Prime Referenced Rate will replace the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate in accordance with Section 5.1.
5.3. Legal Impossibility. If, at any time, Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes) that any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Bank to make or maintain any of the Indebtedness under this Note with interest based upon the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate, Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrower. Thereafter, until Bank notifies Borrower that such conditions or circumstances no longer exist, the right of Borrower to request a Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate-based Advance and any obligation of Bank to maintain any of the Indebtedness hereunder at an Applicable Interest Rate based on the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate shall be suspended and the Prime Referenced Rate will replace the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate in accordance with Section 5.1.
5.4. Yield Maintenance. If any Change in Law shall (a) subject Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this Note or any Indebtedness hereunder, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to Bank of the principal of or interest under this Note or any other amounts due under this Note in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Bank imposed by the jurisdiction in which Bank’s principal executive office is located); or (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Bank, or shall impose on Bank or the interbank markets any other condition affecting this Note or the Indebtedness hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Bank of maintaining any part of the Indebtedness hereunder or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Bank under this Note, then Borrower shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate of Bank, submitted by Bank to Borrower, setting forth the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
5.5. Changes to Capital or Liquidity. If any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by Bank (or any corporation controlling Bank), and Bank determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of any obligations of Bank hereunder or the maintaining of any Indebtedness hereunder, and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s (or such controlling corporation’s) capital as a consequence of such obligations or the maintaining of such Indebtedness hereunder to a level below that which Bank (or such controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then Borrower shall pay to Bank, within fifteen (15) days of Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Bank demanding such compensation, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in the amount of capital and/or liquidity and reduced rate of return which Bank reasonably determines to be allocable to the existence of any obligations of Bank hereunder or to maintaining any Indebtedness hereunder. A certificate of Bank, submitted by Bank to Borrower, setting forth the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank (or such controlling corporation) shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.
6. Indebtedness; Collateral. The Indebtedness is secured by and Bank is granted a security interest in and lien upon the Collateral. Notwithstanding the above, (i) to the extent that any portion of the Indebtedness is a consumer loan, that portion shall not be secured by any deed of trust or mortgage on or other security interest in any of Borrower’s principal dwelling or in any of Borrower’s real property which is not a purchase money security interest as to that portion, unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place, or (ii) if Borrower (or any of them) has (have) given or give(s) Bank a deed of trust or mortgage covering California real property, that deed of trust or mortgage shall not secure this Note or any other indebtedness of Borrower (or any of them), unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place, or (iii) if Borrower (or any of them) has (have) given or give(s) Bank a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property which, under Texas law, constitutes the homestead of such person, that deed of trust or mortgage shall not secure this Note or any other indebtedness of Borrower (or any of them) unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place.
-3-
7. Default; Remedies. If a Default occurs, then (WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OF BANK’S RIGHTS HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IF APPLICABLE, BANK’S RIGHT TO REFUSE ANY REQUESTS FOR ADVANCES AT ANY TIME IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION) Bank, upon the occurrence and at any time during the continuance or existence of a Default, may, at its option and without prior notice to Borrower or any other person or entity, cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Note or any other agreement between Borrower and Bank, terminate this Note as to any future liability or obligation of Bank, but without affecting Bank’s rights and security interests in any Collateral and the Indebtedness of Borrower to Bank, declare any or all of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable (notwithstanding any provisions contained in the evidence of it to the contrary), sell or liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral, set off against the Indebtedness any amounts owing by Bank to Borrower (or any of them), charge interest at the default rate provided herein or in any other Loan Document and exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies granted to Bank by any agreement with Borrower (or any of them) or given to it under applicable law. In addition, if this Note is secured by a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property, then the trustor or mortgagor shall not mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises as security for any other indebtedness or obligations. This Note, together with all other indebtedness secured by said deed of trust or mortgage, shall become due and payable immediately, without notice, at the option of Bank, (x) if said trustor or mortgagor shall mortgage or pledge the mortgaged premises for any other indebtedness or obligations or shall convey, assign or transfer the mortgaged premises by deed, installment sale contract or other instrument, (y) if the title to the mortgaged premises shall become vested in any other person or party in any manner whatsoever, or (z) if there is any disposition (through one or more transactions) of legal or beneficial title to a controlling interest of said trustor or mortgagor.
8. Miscellaneous.
8.1. Right of Setoff. Borrower authorize(s) Bank to charge any account(s) of Borrower (or any of them) with Bank for any and all sums due hereunder when due; provided, however, that such authorization shall not affect any of Borrower’s obligation to pay to Bank all amounts when due, whether or not any such account balances that are maintained by Borrower with Bank are insufficient to pay to Bank any amounts when due, and to the extent that such accounts are insufficient to pay to Bank all such amounts, Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiencies until paid in full.
8.2. Joint and Several Liability. If this Note is signed by two or more parties (whether by all as makers or by one or more as an accommodation party or otherwise), the obligations and undertakings under this Note shall be that of all and any two or more jointly and also of each severally.

Borrower waive(s) all defenses or right to discharge available under the Uniform Commercial Code of the Applicable State and waive(s) all other suretyship defenses, impairment of collateral defenses or right to discharge. Borrower acknowledges that in the event one or more guaranty agreements which guarantee a portion of all Indebtedness have been entered into concurrently with the execution of this Note, upon partial satisfaction of the Indebtedness, Borrower expressly waives any right to designate the portion of the Indebtedness that is satisfied by such payment.
8.4. Successors and Assigns. This Note shall bind Borrower, and Borrower’s respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Bank (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Borrower agree(s) that Bank has the right to sell, assign, and grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness, and that, in connection with this right, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the full extent allowable, Bank may disclose all documents and information which Bank now or later has relating to Borrower or the Indebtedness.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the Loan Documents require an original be recorded or filed with a county or other governmental agency (e.g., mortgages or deeds of trust), the funding of any loan or the advance of any draw request hereunder will be delayed until either Bank receives evidence that the document has actually been recorded with a county or other governmental agency, whichever the case may be, or Bank has been issued gap insurance acceptable to Bank by a title insurance company approved by Bank.

No delay or failure of Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall affect such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege.

“Indebtedness” means, collectively, the indebtedness and liabilities under this Note and any other indebtedness and liabilities of any kind of Borrower (or any of them) to Bank, and any and all modifications, renewals or extensions of it, whether joint or several, contingent or absolute, now existing or later arising, and however evidenced and whether incurred voluntarily or involuntarily, known or unknown, or originally payable to Bank or to a third party and subsequently acquired by Bank including, without limitation, any late charges; loan fees or charges; overdraft indebtedness; any interest and fees that accrue after the commencement by or against Borrower in any bankruptcy proceeding regardless of whether such interest and fees are allowed claims in such proceeding; costs incurred by Bank in establishing, determining, continuing or defending the validity or priority of any security interest, pledge or other lien or in pursuing any of its rights or remedies under any Loan Document (or otherwise) or in connection with any proceeding involving Bank as a result of any financial accommodation to Borrower (or any of them); and reasonable costs and expenses of attorneys and paralegals, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and whether any suit or other action is instituted, and to court costs if suit or action is instituted, and whether any such fees, costs or expenses are incurred at the trial court level or on appeal, in bankruptcy, in administrative proceedings, in probate proceedings or otherwise.
“Loan Amount” means the face amount of this Note as set forth at the top of Page 1 hereof.
“Loan Documents” means collectively, this Note and all other documents, instruments and agreements evidencing, governing, securing, guaranteeing or otherwise relating to or executed pursuant to or in connection with this Note or the Indebtedness evidenced hereby (whether executed and delivered prior to, concurrently with or subsequent to this Note), as such documents, instruments or agreements may have been or may hereafter be amended from time to time.
“Maturity Date” means the maturity date of this Note as set forth at the top of Page 1 hereof.
“Maximum Rate” means, at the particular time in question, the maximum nonusurious rate of interest which, under applicable law, may then be charged on this Note. If on any day the Applicable Interest Rate hereunder in respect of any Indebtedness under this Note shall exceed the Maximum Rate for that day, the rate of interest applicable to such Indebtedness shall be fixed at the Maximum Rate on that day and on each day thereafter until the total amount of interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of this Note equals the total amount of interest which would have accrued if there had been no Maximum Rate. If such maximum rate of interest changes after the date hereof, the Maximum Rate shall be automatically increased or decreased, as the case may be, without notice to Borrower from time to time as of the effective date of each change in such maximum rate. For purposes of determining the Maximum Rate under the law of the State of Texas, the applicable interest rate ceiling shall be the “weekly ceiling” from time to time in effect under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended.
This Note and all the other Loan Documents are intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable usury laws. If any provision hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, neither the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance nor the remainder of the instrument in which such provision is contained shall be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of the holder hereof to at all times comply with the usury and other applicable laws now or hereafter governing the interest payable on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. If the applicable law is ever revised, repealed or judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or if Bank’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of this Note, or if any prepayment by Borrower or prepayment agreement results (or would, if complied with, result) in Borrower having paid, contracted for or being charged for any interest in excess of that permitted by law, then it is the express intent of Borrower and Bank that this Note and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the extent necessary to prevent such result and all excess amounts theretofore collected by Bank shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note or, if fully paid, upon such other Indebtedness as shall then remain outstanding (or, if this Note and all other Indebtedness have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectable hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the then applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid, or agreed to be paid, by Borrower for the use, forbearance, detention, taking, charging, receiving or reserving of the indebtedness of Borrower to Bank under this Note or arising under or pursuant to the other Loan Documents shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the usury ceiling from time to time in effect and applicable to such indebtedness for so long as such indebtedness is outstanding. To the extent federal law permits Bank to contract for, charge or receive a greater amount of interest, Bank will rely on federal law instead of the Texas Finance Code, as supplemented by Texas Credit Title, for the purpose of determining the Maximum Rate. Additionally, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Bank may, at its option and from time to time, implement any other method of computing the Maximum Rate under the Texas Finance Code, as supplemented by Texas Credit Title, or under other applicable law, by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Bank to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
“Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, association, trust, unincorporated association, joint stock company, government, municipality, political subdivision or agency, or other entity.
“Prime Rate” means the per annum interest rate established by Bank as its prime rate for its borrowers, as such rate may vary from time to time, which rate is not necessarily the lowest rate on loans made by Bank at any such time.
“Prime Rate-based Advance” means an Advance which bears interest at the Prime Referenced Rate plus the Applicable Margin, subject to the terms of this Note.
“Prime Referenced Rate” means, for any day, a per annum interest rate which is equal to the Prime Rate in effect on such day, but in no event and at no time shall the Prime Referenced Rate be less than two and one-half percent (2.50%) per annum.
-7-
“Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including, without limitation and as applicable, changes to the definition of the “Applicable Interest Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability and terms of breakage provisions and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that Bank decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate and to permit the administration thereof by Bank in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if Bank decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if Bank determines that no market practice for the administration of the Daily Adjusting Term SOFR Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as Bank decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Note and the other Loan Documents).
“Request” means a request for an Advance hereunder either (i) upon the delivery to Bank of a written request in the form annexed to this Note as Exhibit “A” duly completed and executed by Borrower (as herein provided), or (ii) to the extent applicable, pursuant to a request submitted through Bank’s loan management system.
“Term SOFR Administrator” means the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (or a successor administrator of the term secured overnight financing rate).
“Term SOFR Administrator’s Website” means the website of the Term SOFR Administrator, currently at https://www.cmegroup.com/market-data/cme-group-benchmark-administration/term-sofr.html, or any successor source for the secured overnight financing rate identified as such by the Term SOFR Administrator from time to time.
“Term SOFR Screen Rate” means the CME Term SOFR Reference Rates, as administered by the Term SOFR Administrator and published on the applicable screen page (or such other commercially available source providing such rate or quotations as may be designated by Bank from time to time) on the Term SOFR Administrator’s Website.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Note (as defined below), Borrower hereby request(s) COMERICA BANK (“Bank”) to make an Advance to Borrower on __________ (which must be a Business Day), in the amount of ______________________ Dollars ($ _________ ) under the Master Revolving Note dated as of September 11, 2023, issued by Borrower to said Bank in the face amount of Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) (the “Note”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Note.
Borrower represents, warrants and certifies that no Default, or any condition or event which, with the giving of notice or the running of time, or both, would constitute a Default, has occurred and is continuing under the Note, and none will exist upon the making of the Advance requested hereunder.

If the amount advanced to Borrower under the Note shall at any time exceed the face amount thereof, Borrower will immediately pay such excess amount, without any necessity of notice or demand.
Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to disburse the proceeds of the Advance being requested by this Request for Advance by crediting the account of Borrower with Bank separately designated by Borrower (or, if no such account has been separately designated by Borrower, any account of Borrower maintained with Bank).
