1.

PROMISE TO PAY: This Loan is being made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Paycheck Protection Program authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (“Program”). In return for the Loan, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender the amount of $920,200.00, interest on the unpaid principal balance, and all other amounts required by this Note.

2.

DEFINITIONS:

“Loan” means the loan evidenced by this Note.

“Loan Documents” means the documents related to this Loan signed by Borrower.

“SBA” means the Small Business Administration, an Agency of the United States of America.

3.

Payment Terms: Borrower must make all payments at the place Lender designates.

The interest rate is fixed at 1.00% per annum. The note is interest-only for the initial six (6) month period. Interest will accrue during this period. No payments of principal or interest will be required to be made by the Borrower until the end of the six (6) month period.

Some, or all, of the principal and accrued interest may be forgiven by the SBA under the Paycheck Protection Program. The expected amount to be forgiven is equal to the amount the Borrower will expend on payroll costs, covered mortgage interest, covered rent, and covered utility payments due the eight-week period commencing immediately after the loan proceeds are disbursed. At least 75% of the expected forgiveness amount shall be for payroll costs, with the remaining 25% allocated to other covered expenses.

After such six-month deferral period and after taking into account any loan forgiveness applicable to the Loan pursuant to the Program, the balance of any remaining principal and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable-in-full at the end of the second year. After the initial six (6) month

Page 1


period, the remaining balance of principal and accrued and unpaid interest will fully amortize over the remaining eighteen (18) month period in an amount determined by Lender sufficient to repay the entire balance of principal and accrued and unpaid interest at the interest rate of 1.00% per annum.

Lender will apply each installment payment first to pay interest accrued to the day Lender receives the payment, then to bring principal current, then to pay any late fee, and will apply any remaining balance to reduce principal.

This Note will mature in two (2) years from the date of the Note, at which time a remaining unpaid principal and accrued interest and any other amounts will be due and payable.

The Borrower may prepay the Note in whole or in part at any time without penalty.

If a payment on this Note is more than 10 days late, Lender may charge Borrower a late fee of up to 5.00% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment.

4.
