COMMERCIAL NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Undersigned, Palmer-Mapletree LLC, a Delaware limited liability company with its principal place of business at 9 East 40th Street, Suite 900, New York, New, York (the "Borrower") promises to pay to the order of Country Bank for Savings ("Lender"), at the Lender's main office presently located at 75 Main Street, Ware, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($500,000.00), plus interest, all as hereinafter set forth ("Note").

 

INTEREST

 

Interest from the date hereof upon the unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding shall accrue at an initial fixed rate of five and 00/100 percent (5.00%) per annum for an initial period of five (5) years, commencing from the date hereof (the “Initial Period”), and thereafter, during each succeeding one (1) month period ("Adjustment Period"), at a fixed rate to be determined as of the first day of each such Adjustment Period and equal to Lender's Prime Rate on that date plus one and 00/100 percent (1.00%) per annum, provided, however, at no time, shall the interest rate charged in connection with this Note be less than five and 00/100 percent (5.00%) per annum. "Prime Rate" as used herein shall mean the "Prime Rate" as identified and published by the Wall Street Journal under its listing of Money Rates (and where more than one "Prime Rate" is so published, the highest rate shall be used herein). If the above Prime Rate index should no longer become available, Lender shall select a new index which is based upon comparable information and shall notify the Undersigned of the change. Interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and shall accrue and be paid for the actual number of days any principal hereunder remains unpaid.

 

REPAYMENT

 

Principal and interest due Lender hereunder shall be repayable as follows:

 

A.Commencing one (1) month from the date hereof and on the same day of each month during the Initial Period, payments of principal and interest in the amount of $3,972.92;

 

B.Thereafter, and on the same day of each succeeding month during each Adjustment Period, payments of principal and interest in such amounts as are necessary to fully amortize the (then) unpaid principal hereunder existing on the first day of each such Adjustment Period at the (then) applicable rate of interest and based upon an amortization period of fifteen (15) years less the number of years elapsed from the date hereof;

C.Any remaining unpaid principal, and all accrued interest thereon, shall be due and payable IN FULL fifteen (15) years from the date hereof.

 

Any payments received by Lender with respect to this Note shall be applied first to any costs, charges or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) due Lender from the Undersigned, second to any unpaid accrued interest hereunder and third to the unpaid principal hereunder.

 

If any payment required hereunder is more than fifteen (15) days overdue, (in addition to the interest accruing hereunder) a late charge of five percent (5.00%) of the overdue payment shall be charged to the Undersigned and be immediately due and payable to Lender. Any payment having a due date falling upon any day during which the Lender is not open for business shall be due and payable on the next business day for which Lender is open for business and interest shall continue to accrue during the extended period.

 

If any payment received by Lender with respect to this Note shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under federal or state law, or otherwise due any party other than Lender, then the obligation for which the payment was made shall not be discharged by the payment and shall survive as an obligation due hereunder, notwithstanding the Lender's return to the Undersigned or any other party of the original of this Note or other instrument evidencing the obligation for which payment was made.

 

The Borrower shall have the right to prepay this Note at any time, provided, however, in the event of any Prepayment the Borrower shall pay to the Lender a Prepayment premium computed as follows:

 

(a)If Prepayment occurs during the first year of this Note, the premium shall be an amount equal to five percent (5.00%) of the outstanding principal balance existing immediately prior to the Prepayment.
(b)If Prepayment occurs after the first year of this Note, but prior to commencement of the third year of this Note, the premium shall be an amount equal to four percent (4.00%) of the outstanding principal balance existing immediately prior to the Prepayment.
(c)If Prepayment occurs after the second year of this Note, but prior to commencement of the fourth year of this Note, the premium shall be an amount equal to three percent (3.00%) of the outstanding principal balance existing immediately prior to the Prepayment.
(d)If Prepayment occurs after the third year of this Note, but prior to commencement of the fifth year of this Note, the premium shall be an amount equal to two percent (2.00%) of the outstanding principal balance existing immediately prior to the Prepayment.
(e)If Prepayment occurs after the fourth year of this Note, but prior to commencement of the sixth year of this Note, the premium shall be an amount equal to one percent (1.00%) of the outstanding principal balance existing immediately prior to the Prepayment.

For purposes hereof, “Prepayment” shall mean any payment of principal in advance of its due date. All Prepayments, whether by acceleration or otherwise, shall be applied against the principal payments due hereunder in the inverse order of their maturity.

 

Upon the occurrence of a default hereunder, interest upon the total unpaid principal hereunder shall thereafter, at Lender's option, without notice to Undersigned, and until payment in full of all obligations hereunder, accrue at a rate ("Default Rate") equal to the lesser of (a) the highest interest rate permitted by applicable law or (b) five percent (5.00%) per annum above the interest rate then in effect hereunder at the time of the default.

 

It is not intended under this Note to charge interest at a rate exceeding the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law, but if interest exceeding said maximum rate should be paid hereunder, the excess shall, at Lender's option, be (a) deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal not subject to the prepayment premium (if any) set forth herein or (b) refunded to the Undersigned.

 

The following described property, in addition to all other collateral now or hereafter provided by the Undersigned to Lender, shall secure this Note and all other present or future obligations of the Undersigned to Lender: Mortgage on property owned by the Borrower and located at 20 Wilbraham Street, Palmer, Hampden County, Massachusetts (the "Mortgaged Premises").

 

As additional collateral for the payment and performance of this Note and all other obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, of the Undersigned to Lender, Lender shall at all times have and is hereby granted a security interest in, and right of offset against, all cash, deposit balances and/or accounts, instruments, securities or other property of the Undersigned, and of any endorser or guarantor hereof, now or hereafter in the possession of Lender, whether for safekeeping or otherwise. This right of offset shall permit Lender at any time and without notice to the Undersigned or any endorser or guarantor hereof, to transfer such funds or property as may be deemed by Lender to be appropriate so as to reduce or satisfy any obligation of the Undersigned to the Lender, whether or not such obligation is then due.

No indulgence, delay or omission by Lender in exercising or enforcing any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any such rights or remedies or of the right to exercise them at any later time. No waiver of any default hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any other default hereunder or as a continuing waiver.
