The Administrator and the arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to the extent practicable to take any action to require the arbitration proceeding to be completed and the arbitrator(s)’ award issued within one hundred fifty (150) days of the filing of the Dispute with the Administrator. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to impose sanctions on any party that fails to comply with time periods imposed by the Administrator or the arbitrator(s), including the

Such rights can be exercised at any time, before or after initiation of an arbitration proceeding, except to the extent such action is contrary to the arbitration award. The exercise of such rights shall not constitute a waiver of the right to submit any Dispute to arbitration, and any claim or controversy related to the exercise of such rights shall be a Dispute to be resolved under the provisions of this arbitration clause. Any party may initiate arbitration with the Administrator. If any party desires to arbitrate a Dispute asserted against such party in a complaint, counterclaim, cross-claim, or third-party complaint thereto, or in an answer or other reply to any such pleading, such party must make an appropriate motion to the trial court seeking to compel arbitration, which motion must be filed with the court within forty-five days (45) days of service of the pleading, or amendment thereto, setting forth such Dispute.

“Banking Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in the State of Utah are authorized or required to close and, when used in reference to an Interest Period, a day on which dealings in dollar deposits are also carried on in the London Interbank market and banks are open for business in London.

“Cash in Zions Money Market Account” means the lowest balance at any time during a calendar quarter in Money Market Account No. 002406015 of Borrower maintained with Lender.

“Dollars” and the sign “$” mean lawful money of the United States.

“Event of Default” shall have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement

“Interest Period” means the period during which interest will accrue based on the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate, commencing on the date selected by Borrower and ending, as Borrower may select, on the numerically corresponding day in the first calendar year thereafter for an Interest Period based on the LIBOR Rate, or the second or third calendar year thereafter for an Interest Period based on the LIBOR/Swap Rate, except that each such Interest Period that commences on the last Banking Business Day of a calendar year (or on any day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the appropriate subsequent calendar year) shall end on

	a.		No Interest Period may extend beyond the termination of the Loan Agreement;

	b.		No Interest Period may extend beyond the aforesaid Maturity Date or such later date to which it is extended; and

If an Interest Period would end on a day that is not a Banking Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next Banking Business Day unless such Banking Business Day would fall in the next calendar year, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Banking Business Day.

“LIBOR Rate” applicable to any Interest Period equal to one calendar year means the rate per annum quoted by Lender as its LIBOR Rate based upon quotes from the London Interbank Offered Rate from the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rates as quoted for United States Dollars by Bloomberg or other comparable services selected by Lender for the applicable Interest Period. This definition of LIBOR Rate is to be strictly interpreted and is not intended to serve any purpose other than providing an index to determine the interest rate used herein. The LIBOR Rate of Lender may not necessarily be the same as the quoted offered side in the Eurodollar time deposit market quoted by any particular institution or service applicable to any Interest Period. It is not the lowest rate at which Lender may make loans to any of its customers, either now or in the future.

“LIBOR Rate Applicable Margin” means:


Cash in Zions Money Market Account		LIBOR Rate Applicable Margin
Equal to or less than $5,000,000		3.75%

Greater than $5,000,000, but equal to or less than $10,000,000		3.00%

Greater than $10,000,000, but equal to or less than $15,000,000		2.25%

Greater than $15,000,000		1.75%

“LIBOR/Swap Rate” applicable to any Interest Period equal to two or three calendar years means the rate per annum quoted by Lender as Lender’s two year or three year LIBOR/Swap Rate based upon the LIBOR/Swap rate as quoted for U.S. Dollars by Bloomberg or other comparable pricing services selected by Lender. This definition of LIBOR/Swap Rate is to be strictly interpreted and is not intended to serve any other purpose other than providing an index to determine the interest rate used herein. Lender’s LIBOR/Swap Rate may not necessarily be the same as the quoted offer side in the Eurodollar time deposit market by any particular institution or service applicable to any interest period. It is not the lowest rate at which Lender may make loans to any of its customers, either now or in the future.

“Loan Agreement” means the Loan Agreement dated June 28, 2007, between Zions First National Bank as Lender and ZARS, Inc., as Borrower, together with any exhibits, amendments, addenda, and modifications.

“Prime Rate” means an index which is determined daily by the published commercial loan variable rate index held by any two of the following banks: X. X. Xxxxxx Xxxxx & Co., Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, and Bank of America N.A. In the event no two of the above banks have the same published rate, the bank having the median rate will establish the Prime Rate. If, for any reason beyond the control of Lender, any of the aforementioned banks becomes unacceptable as a reference for the purpose of determining the Prime Rate used herein, Lender may, five days after posting notice in Lender’s bank offices, substitute another comparable bank for the one determined unacceptable. As used in this paragraph, “comparable bank” shall mean one of the ten largest commercial banks headquartered in the United States of America. This definition of Prime Rate is to be strictly interpreted and is not intended to serve any purpose other than providing an index to determine the variable interest rate used herein. It is not the lowest rate at which Lender may make loans to any of its customers, either now or in the future.

“Prime Rate Applicable Margin” means:


Cash in Zions Money Market Account		Prime Rate Applicable Margin
Equal to or less than $5,000,000		1.00%

Greater than $5,000,000, but equal to or less than $10,000,000		0.25%

Greater than $10,000,000, but equal to or less than $15,000,000		-0.50%

Greater than $15,000,000		-1.00%

Payment Terms

Interest shall be payable as follows: Interest accrued based on the Prime Rate, the LIBOR Rate, or the LIBOR/Swap Rate is to be paid in arrears commencing August 1, 2007, and on the same day of each month thereafter.

Principal shall be payable in thirty (30) installments of two hundred sixty six thousand six hundred sixty six dollars and sixty seven cents ($266,666.67) per month commencing January 1, 2008, and on the same day of each month thereafter through June 1, 2010. All remaining principal and unpaid interest shall be paid in full on June 1, 2010.

LIBOR Rate and LIBOR/Swap Rate Election

This Promissory Note shall initially bear interest based on the Prime Rate.

Provided no Event of Default has occurred, and is continuing, Borrower may elect from time to time to convert or continue the interest rate to the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate by giving Lender two (2) Banking Business Days written notice of such election specifying the Interest Period selected. Such election shall apply to the entire outstanding principal balance. An elected Interest Period may not be changed without consent of Lender until expiration of the elected Interest Period.

Interest Based on Prime Rate

Interest based on the Prime Rate shall be at a variable rate computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year as follows: The Prime Rate from time to time in effect, adjusted as of the date of any change in the Prime Rate, plus or minus the Prime Rate Applicable Margin. The Prime Rate Applicable Margin shall be adjusted as of the first day of each calendar quarter based on the Cash in Zions Money Market Account for the preceding calendar quarter.

Interest Based on LIBOR Rate or LIBOR/Swap Rate

Interest based on the LIBOR Rate and LIBOR/Swap Rate shall be calculated as follows:

	1.		Interest shall be at a rate computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year at a rate equal to the LIBOR Rate or LIBOR/Swap Rate, as applicable, for the applicable Interest Period plus the LIBOR Rate Applicable Margin. The LIBOR Rate Applicable Margin shall be adjusted as of the first day of each calendar quarter based on the Cash in Zions Money Market Account for the preceding calendar quarter.

	2.		Notwithstanding any other provision in this Promissory Note, if the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for Lender to maintain balances based on the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate, then upon notice to Borrower by Lender the outstanding principal amount of the balances based on the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be repaid immediately upon demand of Lender if such change or compliance with such request, in the judgment of Lender, requires immediate repayment or, if such repayment is not required, at the election of Borrower shall be converted to a balance based on Prime Rate or repaid at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

	3.		Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that (a) quotations of interest rates are not being provided for purposes of determining the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate, or (b) the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate does not accurately cover the cost to Lender of making or maintaining advances based on such rate, then

Lender may give notice thereof to Borrower, whereupon until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, then (1) the right of Borrower to request interest pricing based on the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate shall be suspended; and (2) Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount based on LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such balance, or, at Borrower’ option, convert the outstanding principal balances based on the LIBOR Rate or the LIBOR/Swap Rate to balances based on Prime Rate on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such balances.

General

Borrower may prepay all or any portion of all Prime Rate based balances at any time without penalty. Borrower may not prepay in full or in part any LIBOR Rate or LIBOR/Swap Rate based balances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary prepayment of any LIBOR Rate or LIBOR/Swap Rate based balance, Borrower shall make Lender whole and Borrower shall pay to Lender all costs incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment and compensate Lender for any loss and any breakage costs arising from the re-employment of funds at rates lower than the rate provided by this Promissory Note, cost to Lender of such funds, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by them in order to make or maintain the loan evidenced by this Promissory Note and any related costs.

Any prepayments shall reduce or excuse the last installment payments owing. All scheduled installment payments shall remain due and owing as scheduled until all outstanding principal has been paid in full.

This Promissory Note is made in accordance with the Loan Agreement and is secured by the collateral identified in and contemplated by the Loan Agreement.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, time being the essence hereof, then the entire unpaid balance, with interest as aforesaid, shall, at the election of the holder hereof and without notice of such election, become immediately due and payable in full.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Borrower agrees to pay to the holder hereof all collection costs, including reasonable attorney fees and legal expenses, in addition to all other sums due hereunder.
