1. Loan Commitment; Borrowing Procedure. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lender agrees to make one or more Advances to the Borrower in an aggregate original principal amount up to the Commitment Amount (the “Loan”). Subject in all cases to the provisions of Section 2, at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof and through and including the Maturity Date, during normal business hours, upon not less than three (3) business days prior written notice, the Borrower may deliver to the Lender a written request for an Advance (each, an “Advance Request”).

Any amounts so disbursed will be advanced to the Borrower as a loan and shall be evidenced by, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Note. Any Advances made by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to this Note may be repaid by the Borrower (together with any and all interest accrued thereon) at any time without penalty or premium in accordance with the terms hereof. Amounts repaid hereunder may not be reborrowed.

2. Limitations on Borrowing. The Lender shall not have any obligation to make, nor be required to make, any Advances or other extension of credit to the Borrower hereunder if (a) an Event of Default (as defined below) has occurred or (b) Borrower has consummated an initial public offering of its common stock resulting in its common stock trading on a stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market and the Borrower becoming subject to the periodic filing and other obligations under the federal securities law. In no event shall the Lender be obligated to make any Advances or other extension of credit to the Borrower in excess of the Commitment Amount.

3. Payments Generally. All payments shall be made to the Lender in immediately available funds and in lawful money of the United States of America at the principal office of the Lender, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing to the Borrower. Each payment of any amounts owed hereunder shall be applied to the then outstanding obligations under this Note in the following order of priority: first, to any fees or other amounts then due hereunder, second, to any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note, and, third, to the outstanding principal of this Note. The Borrower hereby unconditionally waives (a) any rights to presentment, demand, protest or (except as expressly required hereby) notice of any kind, and (b) any rights of rescission, setoff, counterclaim, suretyship or defense to payment under this Note or otherwise that the Borrower may have or claim against the Lender.

Interest shall be calculated based on a year consisting of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on a quarterly basis and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

5. Payment of Principal. Unless earlier accelerated in accordance with the provisions hereof following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the unpaid principal balance of this Note (inclusive of all Advances), together with all accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other amounts due hereunder, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.

6. Prepayments. The Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding obligations of this Note (including any and all Advances) at any time without penalty or premium.

7. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender that:

7.1 Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Florida and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Borrower is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

7.2 Authorization. All corporate action has been taken on the part of the Borrower, its officers, directors and shareholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Note. The Borrower has taken all corporate action required to make all the obligations of the Borrower reflected herein the valid and enforceable obligations they purport to be.

7.3 Compliance with Other Instruments. The authorization, execution and delivery of this Note will not constitute or result in a material default or violation of any law or regulation applicable to the Borrower or any material term or provision of the Borrower’s current Articles of Incorporation or bylaws, or any material agreement or instrument by which it is bound or to which its properties or assets are subject.

8. Representations and Warranties of the Lender. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Borrower that:

8.1 Authorization. This Note constitutes the Lender’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) laws relating to availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

8.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Lender acknowledges that this Note is issued to the Lender in reliance upon the Lender’s representation to the Borrower that the Note will be acquired for investment for the Lender’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Lender has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Note, the Lender further represents that the Lender does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to this Note.

8.3 Disclosure of Information. The Lender acknowledges that it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire this Note. The Lender further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Borrower regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Note.

8.4 Investment Experience. The Lender is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in this Note. If other than an individual, the Lender also represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring this Note.

8.6 Restricted Securities. The Lender understands that this Note is characterized as a “restricted security” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as it is being acquired from the Borrower in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection the Lender represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 as promulgated by the SEC under the Act, as presently in effect (“Rule 144”), and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.

8.7 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations and warranties set forth above, the Lender further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of this Note unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Borrower to be bound by this Section and:

(a) There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

(b) (i) The Lender shall have notified the Borrower of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Borrower with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition and (ii) if other than an individual, Lender shall not make any disposition to any of the Borrower’s competitors as such is in good faith determined by the Borrower.
