2.2.Interest. So long as no Event of Default is continuing, and subject to §3, the Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 3.00%, such interest to be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period and on the date the Loan is indefeasibly paid in full in cash. While an Event of Default is continuing, amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents shall bear interest (compounded monthly and payable on demand in respect of overdue amounts) at a rate per annum which is equal to the rate otherwise in effect plus two percent (2.00%) until such amount is paid in full or (as the case may be) such Event of Default has been cured or waived in writing by the Lender (after as well as before judgment).

2.3.Repayments and Prepayments. The Borrowers hereby, jointly and severally, agree to pay the Lender on the Maturity Date the entire unpaid principal of and interest on the Loan. Subject to the payment of any amounts required to be paid pursuant to §3.5,  the Borrowers may elect to prepay the outstanding principal of all or any part of the Loan. The Borrowers shall give the Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time, at least three (3) Business Days prior written or telephonic notice, of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §2.3 of the Loan, specifying the proposed date of such prepayment and the amount to be prepaid.

(b)As a condition precedent to such extension, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Lender a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Existing Maturity Date signed by a Senior Officer of such Loan Party certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, (x) the representations and warranties contained in §5 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Existing Maturity Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, (y) no monetary Default exists and (z) no Event of Default exists. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing condition, the Lender shall notify the Borrowers of the extension of the Existing Maturity Date.

Each such Additional Amount shall be due and payable on each date on which the Existing Maturity Date is extended in accordance with this Section.

2.5.Supplemental Amount.  Without limiting any of the amounts payable under

§2.2, if the Loan is not indefeasibly paid in full in cash on the Maturity Date, the Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to the Lender on the day immediately after the Maturity Date, a supplemental amount (the “Supplemental Amount”) equal to 2.00% of the Loan Amount; provided that such Supplemental Amount shall increase by an additional 2.00% of the Loan Amount, and shall be due and payable, on each one-month anniversary of the Maturity Date until the Loan is indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

3.    CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES; ETC.

3.1.Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate. In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period, the Lender shall determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to the Loan during any Interest Period, the Lender shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers) to the Borrowers. If such notice is given, (a) the interest rate applicable to the Loan for such Interest Period shall be the rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2.00%, determined and effective as of the first day of such Interest Period, (b) each reference herein to the “LIBOR Rate” for any Interest Period shall be deemed thereafter to be a reference to the Prime Rate, and (c) such substituted rate shall thereafter be determined by the Lender.

3.2.Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for the Lender to make or maintain the Loan at the LIBOR Rate, the Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrowers and thereupon the Loan shall be converted automatically to a Loan bearing interest at the rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2.00% on the last day of the applicable Interest Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law.   The Borrowers hereby, jointly and severally, agree promptly to pay the 

Lender,  upon  demand  by the  Lender,  any additional  amounts  necessary to  compensate the Lender for any costs incurred by the Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this §3.2, including any interest or fees payable by the Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the Loan at the LIBOR Rate hereunder.

3.3.Change in Circumstances. If, on or after the date hereof the Lender reasonably determines that (a) the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline or the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law), or (b) compliance by the Lender or its parent holding company with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law), (i) shall subject the Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to the Loan or the Note, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of the principal of or interest on, the Loan or in respect of any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of the Loan (other than with respect to taxes based upon the Lender’s net income), or (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender, or shall impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting the Loan or the Note, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining the Loan at the LIBOR Rate, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender under this Agreement or under the Note with respect to the Loan, by an amount reasonably deemed by the Lender to be material, then, upon demand by the Lender, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

3.4.Certificate. A certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to §3.3 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by the Lender to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.

3.5.Indemnity. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense (including loss of anticipated profits) the Lender may sustain as a consequence of the Borrowers’ failure to pay the principal amount of the Loan as and when due or the payment of the Loan on a date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including interest or fees payable by the Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Loan at the LIBOR Rate.

shall not accrue on the Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any portion of the Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.
