Financial Statements. The financial statements of Borrower heretofore delivered to Lender are true and correct in all material respects, and fairly present the financial condition of Borrower as of the respective dates thereof, and no material adverse change has occurred in the financial conditions reflected therein since the respective dates thereof that would affect Borrowers performance under the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents;
Authority to Enter into Loan Documents. The Borrower has full authority to enter into the Loan Documents and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and the facts and matters expressed or implied in the opinions of its legal counsel are true and correct;
Validity of Loan Documents. The Loan Documents have been approved by those persons having proper authority, and are in all respects legal, valid and binding according to their terms.
Conflicting Transactions of Borrower. That the consummation of the transactions hereby contemplated and the performance of the obligations of Borrower under and by virtue of the Loan Documents will not result in any breach of, or constitute a default under any lease, bank loan or credit agreement, partnership agreement, or other instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which it may be bound or affected.
Pending Litigation. That there are no actions, suits, or proceedings pending, or to the knowledge of Borrower threatened against or affecting it or involving the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents at law or in equity, or before or by any governmental authority.

No Event of Default. As of the date of this Agreement, there is no Event of Default under this Agreement, the Note, or any other Loan Document, nor any event which would become an Event of Default but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or both.

Solvency. The Borrower (before and after giving effect to the Loan) is and will be solvent and have, and expect to have, the ability to, in the ordinary course of business, pay its debts from time to time incurred and as such debts mature. Solvent means with respect to the Borrower, on any date determination, that on such date (a) the fair value of the assets of Borrower is greater than the total amount of liabilities, including contingent liabilities, of Borrower, (b) the present fair salable value of the assets of Borrower is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of Borrower on its debts as they become absolute and matured, (c) Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts or liabilities beyond Borrowers ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they mature, (d) Borrower is not engaged in business or a transaction, and is not about to engage in business or a transaction, for which Borrowers assets would constitute an unreasonably small capital, and (e) Borrower is able to pay its debts and liabilities, contingent obligations and other commitments as they mature in the ordinary course of business. The amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.
Tax Status. The Borrower (a) has made or timely filed all federal income and all material State and foreign income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which each of them is subject; (b) has paid all taxes and
other governmental assessments and charges shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith; and (c) has set aside on their books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by any taxing authority and none of the officers of Borrower know of any reasonable basis for any such claim.
Taxes. Borrower shall pay when due all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges imposed upon it or its assets, franchises, business, income or profits before any penalty or interest accrues thereon, and all claims (including, without limitation, claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums which by law might be a lien or charge upon any of its assets, provided that (unless any material item or property would be lost, forfeited or materially damaged as a result hereof) no such charge or claim need be paid if it is being diligently contested in good faith, if Lender is notified in advance of such contest and if Borrower establishes an adequate reserve or other appropriate provision required by generally accepted accounting principles and deposits with Lender cash or bond in an amount acceptable to Lender.
ERISA. Any Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA) Plan in effect at the Borrower is in compliance, in all material respects, with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code) and any other Federal or State laws. There are no pending, or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened claims, or lawsuits, or actions, by any governmental authority with respect to an ERISA Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of Borrower or any of its subsidiaries.
For the purposes of this Agreement, the term Borrower shall also include each Subsidiary of Borrower. Subsidiary means a domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company or other business entity formed under the laws of jurisdictions within the United States of which a majority of the shares of securities or other interests having ordinary voting power for the election of directors or other governing body (other than securities or interests having such power only by reason of the happening of a contingency) are at the time beneficially owned, or the management of which is otherwise controlled, directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, or both, by such entity. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to a Subsidiary or to Subsidiaries shall refer to a Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of Borrower.
ARTICLE IV
COVENANTS OF BORROWER
Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Lender as follows:
Expenses. To pay all costs of closing the Loan contemplated hereunder and all expenses of Lender with respect thereto, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees (including attorneys fees incurred by Lender subsequent to the closing of the Loan in connection with the disbursement, administration, collection, restructure, amendment, or transfer of the Loan), advances, recording expenses, brokerage commissions, and claims of brokerage, documentary stamps and other fees, and similar items, and to allow all closing papers, loan documents and other legal matters to be subject to the approval of Lenders attorneys.

Audits. Lender shall have the right to audit the books and records of Borrower. No rights of audit unless in default and with twenty-four (24) hours prior notification and accompanied by Borrowers representative.
Insurance. At its own cost, Borrower shall obtain and maintain insurance against (a) loss, destruction or damage to its properties and business of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against by corporations with established reputations engaged in the same or similar business as Borrower, and (b) insurance against public liability and third party property damage of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against by corporations with established reputations engaged in the same or similar business as Borrower. All such policies shall be issued by financially sound and reputable insurers. All of the insurance policies required hereby shall be evidenced by one or more Certificates of Insurance delivered to Lender by Borrower on the Closing Date and at such other times as Lender may request from time to time.
Accounting Terms. All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principals (GAAP), as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent, and that were used in preparing the financial statements delivered to Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the purpose of determining compliance with any covenant contained in this Agreement (including the computation of any financial covenant), Indebtedness of the Borrower and its subsidiaries shall be deemed carried at 100% of the outstanding principal balance thereof. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio set forth in this Agreement, the Borrower and Lender shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio to preserve the original intent thereof.
Negative Pledge. During the term of the Loan, except for materials, vehicles, equipment, tools or other items of personal property purchased in the ordinary course of Borrowers business (and, in no event, in excess of one Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) outstanding at any one time), Borrower shall not pledge or otherwise encumber any of Borrowers assets without the express prior written consent of Lender.
