  (b)   In Section II,

                         (i) By inserting the words “minus the Outstanding Letter of Credit Balance” at the end of the first sentence of Section II(A)(1) and after the words “the Commitment” in Section II(C).

                         (ii) By adding a new subsection (F), as follows:

  (F)   Letter of Credit Subfeature.

             (1) As a subfeature under the Commitment, the Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable Applications, to make loans to the Borrower by issuing the Letters of Credit for the account of GEOMET Technologies, LLC, a Borrower. The Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Euros, and the Borrower agrees that the Bank’s conversion rate for U.S. Dollars to Euros, and from Euros to U.S. Dollars, shall at all times be used and, absent manifest error, be final. At no time shall the Bank be required to convert the denomination of the Letters of Credit or any amounts due under this Agreement or the Applications. At no time shall the Outstanding Letter of Credit Balance exceed US$200,000.00 or the Euro equivalent. Each draft paid by the Bank under either Letter of Credit shall, if such amount is less than the Available Credit, be deemed an Advance and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable under the Note. To the extent the amount of a draft paid by the Bank as aforesaid is greater than the Available Credit, said amount shall be payable by the Borrower ON DEMAND and until paid in full shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable under the Note. The Bank is hereby authorized and directed to debit any deposit account or accounts of the Borrower with the Bank, at its option, to reimburse the Bank for payment of all or any part of said amount.

            (2) Upon the termination of the Commitment for any reason whatsoever, or upon the occurrence of a Default, the Bank may, at its option, demand that the Borrower, within ten (10) days of such demand, arrange for the cancellation of either or both of the Letters of Credit such that the Bank has no further liability under said Letters of Credit, or in the event the Borrower fails to procure the cancellation of either Letter of Credit within such ten (10) day period, demand that the Borrower pay to the Bank, as cash collateral, the remaining amount available to be drawn, if any, under said Letter of Credit and such amount shall thereupon become immediately due

72


 

and payable. In the event the Borrower pays to the Bank or the Bank collects from the Borrower sums representing the remaining amount available to be drawn under said Letter of Credit, the Bank shall hold such sums in a non-interest-bearing account as security for the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Bank for amounts paid by the Bank under said Letter of Credit or otherwise due hereunder. Upon the expiration of said Letter of Credit and the Bank’s reasonable determination that it has no further liability thereunder, the Bank shall repay such sums to the Borrower to the extent they exceed the remaining amounts actually paid by the Bank under said Letter of Credit. The Bank’s rights under this Section II(F) are in addition to other rights and remedies which the Bank may have.

          2. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Bank the Applications, on the Bank’s forms therefor.

          3. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the effective date hereof, the unpaid principal balance of the Note is $371,379.03, the Outstanding Letter of Credit Balance is (or will be, at the issuance of both Letters of Credit) ¬145,042.20 and that there are no set-offs or defenses against the Note, either Application, or the Loan Agreement.

          4. The parties to this Agreement do not intend that this Agreement be construed as a novation of the Note or the Loan Agreement.

          5. Except as hereby expressly modified, the Loan Agreement shall otherwise be unchanged, shall remain in full force and effect, and is hereby expressly approved, ratified and confirmed.

          6. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
