CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
$3,000,000 December 14, 2001
Xxxxxx Boats & Motors, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"),
hereby promises to pay to the order of Brunswick Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Initial Purchaser"), the principal amount of $3,000,000
together with interest thereon calculated from the date hereof in accordance
with the provisions of this Note.
This Note was issued pursuant to a Subordinated Note Purchase
Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2001 (the "Purchase Agreement"), between the
Company and the Initial Purchaser, and this Note is one of the "Notes" referred
to in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement contains terms governing
the rights of the holder of this Note, and all provisions of the Purchase
Agreement are incorporated herein in full by reference. Unless otherwise
indicated herein, capitalized terms used in this Note which are not otherwise
defined have the same meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
1. Payment of Interest. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 10.2 of the Purchase Agreement, interest shall accrue at the greater of
(i) Prime Rate plus two percent per annum, with such interest rate being
adjusted quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter, or (ii) 6% per
annum, on the unpaid principal amount of this Note outstanding from time to
time, or (if less) at the highest rate then permitted under applicable law. The
Company shall pay to the holder of this Note all accrued interest on the last
day of each calendar quarter beginning December 31, 2001, provided that if such
day is not a business day, payment shall be due on the next business day. Unless
prohibited under applicable law, any accrued interest which is not paid on the
date on which it is payable shall bear interest at the same rate at which
interest is then accruing on the principal amount of this Note. Any accrued
interest which for any reason has not theretofore been paid shall be paid in
full on the date on which the final principal payment on this Note is paid.
Interest shall accrue on any principal payment due under this Note and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, on any interest which has not been paid on
the date on which it is payable until such time as payment therefore is actually
delivered to the holder of this Note. Interest on this Note shall be computed on
the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable.
2. Payment of Principal on Note.
(a) Scheduled Payments. The Company shall pay all outstanding
principal and interest due under the Note on December 14, 2004.
(b) Optional Prepayments.
(i) Prior to receipt of a conversion notice from the
holder of this Note, the Company may prepay this Note in whole or
in part by paying the principal and accrued interest thereon in
full, plus a premium on such principal amount so prepaid at the
following rates: 5% through the first anniversary of the Closing
Date, 3% after the first anniversary of the Closing Date through
the second anniversary of the Closing Date and 1% thereafter;
provided that such prepayment is not prohibited by any Senior
Indebtedness. Upon receipt of a conversion notice from the holder
of this Note, all of the Company's prepayment rights shall be
deemed lapsed and unexercised.
(ii) The Company shall send written notice of its
election under this paragraph 2(b) to make an optional prepayment
on the Notes to the holder of this Note by registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, at least 30 days prior to the date
of prepayment and prior to receiving a conversion notice from the
holder of this Note. On the date of prepayment, the Company shall
deliver to each holder of the Notes in person or by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, a cashier's or certified
check for the full amount of the Notes which the Company intends
to prepay on such holder's Note plus interest accrued on the
outstanding principal amount of such holder's Note through the
date ten days prior to the date of prepayment specified in the
Company's notice.
(c) Conversion. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this
paragraph 2, the holder of this Note may convert all or any portion of the
outstanding principal amount of this Note pursuant to paragraph 3 until such
time as such amount has been paid by the Company; provided that if the holder
has received a notice of prepayment pursuant to paragraph 2(b) above, the holder
may not convert the portion of the Note designated for prepayment unless the
prepayment is not made in accordance with the terms of paragraph 2(b).
(d) Pro Rata Payment. The Company agrees that any payments to the
holders of the Notes (whether for principal, interest or otherwise) shall be
made pro rata among such holders based upon the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the Notes held by each such holder. If any holder of a Note obtains
any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or
otherwise) of principal or interest on any Note in excess of such holder's pro
2
rata share of payments obtained by all holders of the Notes, such holder shall
purchase from the other holders of the Notes such participation in the Notes
held by them as is necessary to cause such holders to share the excess payment
ratably among each of them as provided in this paragraph.
3. Conversion.
(a) Conversion Procedure.
(i) At any time and from time to time after June 12,
2002 and prior to the payment of this Note in full, the holder of
this Note may convert all or any portion of the outstanding
principal amount of this Note into a number of shares of the
Conversion Stock (excluding any fractional share) determined by
dividing the principal amount designated by such holder in a
written notice of intention to convert as the amount to be
converted, by the Conversion Price then in effect. The holder of
this Note shall give the Company 30 days notice of its intention
to convert.
(ii) Each such conversion of this Note shall be
deemed to have been effected as of the close of business on the
date on which this Note has been surrendered at the principal
office of the Company. At such time as such conversion has been
effected, the rights of the holder of this Note as such holder to
the extent of the conversion shall cease, and the Person or
Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for
shares of Conversion Stock are to be issued upon such conversion
shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of
the shares of Conversion Stock represented thereby.
(iii) As soon as possible after a conversion has
been effected (but in any event within five business days), the
Company shall deliver to the converting holder:
(A) a certificate or certificates
representing the number of shares of Conversion
Stock (excluding any fractional share) issuable by
reason of such conversion in such name or names and
such denomination or denominations as the converting
holder has specified;
(B) payment in an amount equal to the
sum of all accrued interest with respect to the
principal amount converted, which has not been paid
prior thereto, plus the amount payable under
subparagraph (iv) below; and
(C) a new Note representing any
portion of the principal amount which was
represented by the Note surrendered to the Company
in connection with such conversion but which was not
converted.
(iv) If any fractional share of Conversion Stock
would, except for the provisions hereof, be deliverable upon
conversion of this Note, the Company, in lieu of delivering such
fractional share, shall pay an amount equal to the Market Price of
such fractional share as of the date of such conversion.
(v) The issuance of certificates for shares of
Conversion Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made
without charge to the holder hereof for any domestic documentary,
3
stamp, transfer, excise or similarly related transactional tax
relating to the issuance of securities in respect thereof or other
cost incurred by the Company in connection with such conversion
and the related issuance of shares of Conversion Stock. Upon
conversion of this Note, the Company shall take all such actions
as are necessary in order to ensure that the Conversion Stock
issuable with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.
(vi) The Company shall not close its books against
the transfer of Conversion Stock issued or issuable upon
conversion of this Note in any manner which interferes with the
timely conversion of this Note. The Company shall assist and
cooperate with any holder of this Note required to make any
governmental filings or obtain any governmental approval prior to
or in connection with the conversion of this Note (including,
without limitation, making any filings required to be made by the
Company).
(vii) The Company shall at all times reserve and
keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of
Conversion Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the
conversion of the Note, such number of shares of Conversion Stock
issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Notes. All shares
of Conversion Stock which are so issuable shall, when issued, be
duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free
from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company shall take all such
actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of
Conversion Stock may be so issued without violation of any
applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of
any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Conversion
Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which
shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such
issuance).
(b) Conversion Price. The initial Conversion Price shall be
$2.4594. If and whenever on or after the original date of issuance of this Note
the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with paragraph 3(c) is deemed to
have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share
less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such time, the
Conversion Price shall be reduced to the Conversion Price determined by dividing
(A) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the product derived by multiplying the
Conversion Price immediately prior to such issue or sale by the number of shares
of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale, plus
(y) the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issue on sale,
by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding immediately after
such issue or sale.
(c) Effect on Conversion Price of Certain Events. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Conversion Price under paragraph 3(b), the following
shall be applicable:
(i) Issuance of Rights or Options. If the Company in
any manner grants any rights or options to subscribe for or to
purchase Common Stock or any stock or other securities convertible
into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such rights or options
being herein called "Options" and such convertible or exchangeable
stock or securities being herein called "Convertible Securities")
and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon
the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of
4
such Convertible Securities is less than the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such
Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or
exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible
Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be
deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the
Company for such price per share. For purposes of this paragraph,
the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon
exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities" is determined by dividing (A) the total
amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as
consideration for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the
Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus in the case of
such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum
aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to
the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible
Securities and the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the
total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all
such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such
Options. No adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon
the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such Convertible
Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual
issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall
be no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (i) with respect to
grants of options to employees pursuant to employee benefit plans
as in effect on the Closing Date hereof.
(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the
Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities
and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon
such conversion or exchange is less than the Conversion Price in
effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be
deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the
Company for such price per share. For the purposes of this
paragraph, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable
upon such conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (A)
the total amount received or receivable by the Company as
consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion
or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities. No adjustment of the Conversion Price
shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any
such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon
exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the Conversion
Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of
this paragraph 3(c), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price
shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If
the purchase price provided for in any Option, the additional
consideration (if any) payable upon the issue, conversion or
exchange of any Convertible Security, or the rate at which any
Convertible Security is convertible into or exchangeable for
Common Stock changes at any time, the Conversion Price in effect
at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the Conversion
Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Option
or Convertible Security originally provided for such changed
purchase price, additional consideration or changed conversion
rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or
sold; provided that if such adjustment of the Conversion Price
5
would result in an increase in the Conversion Price then in
effect, such adjustment shall not be effective until 30 days after
written notice thereof has been given to all holders of the Notes.
(iv) Treatment of Expired Options and Unexercised
Convertible Securities. Upon the expiration of any Option or the
termination of any right to convert or exchange any Convertible
Securities without the exercise of such Option or right, the
Conversion Price then in effect hereunder shall be adjusted to the
Conversion Price which would have been in effect at the time of
such expiration or termination had such Option or Convertible
Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such
expiration or termination, never been issued; provided that if
such expiration or termination would result in an increase in the
Conversion Price then in effect, such increase shall not be
effective until 30 days after written notice thereof has been
given to all holders of the Notes.
(v) Calculation of Consideration Received. If any
Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold
or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration
received therefore shall be deemed to be the net amount received
by the Company therefore. In case any Common Stock, Options or
Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration
other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash
received by the Company shall be the fair value of such
consideration, except where such consideration consists of
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by
the Company shall be the Market Price thereof as of the date of
receipt. In case any Common Stock, Options or Convertible
Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in
connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation, the amount of consideration therefore shall be deemed
to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and
business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to
such Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case
may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash and
securities shall be determined jointly by the Company and the
Majority Noteholders. If such parties are unable to reach
agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value
shall be determined by an appraiser jointly selected by the
Company and the Majority Noteholders. The determination of such
appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the
fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
(vi) Integrated Transactions. In case any Option is
issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of
the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in
which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by
the parties thereto, the Options shall be deemed to have been
issued for a consideration of $.01.
(vii) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding at any given time does not include shares
owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any
Subsidiary, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held
shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
(viii) Record Date. If the Company takes a record of
the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A)
to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common
Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe
for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities,
6
then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue
or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued
or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of
such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right
of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(d) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at
any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend or otherwise) one or
more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision
shall be proportionately reduced, and if the Company at any time combines (by
reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.
(e) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or
Sale. If any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another
Person or other transaction (collectively, any "Organic Change") is effected in
such a way that holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly
or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or
in exchange for Common Stock, then, prior to the consummation of such Organic
Change, lawful and adequate provision (in form and substance satisfactory to the
Majority Noteholders) shall be made whereby each of the holders of the Notes
shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or addition to
(as the case may be) shares of Conversion Stock immediately theretofore
acquirable and receivable upon the conversion of such holder's Note, such shares
of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for the number of shares of Conversion Stock immediately theretofore
acquirable and receivable upon conversion of such holder's Note had such Organic
Change not taken place. In any such case, appropriate provision (in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Noteholders) shall be made
with respect to such holder's rights and interests to insure that the provisions
of this paragraph 3 and paragraphs 4 and 5 shall thereafter be applicable in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the conversion of the Notes (including, in the case of any such
consolidation, merger or sale in which the successor entity or purchasing entity
is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment of the Conversion Price to
the value for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation,
merger or sale and a corresponding immediate adjustment in the number of shares
of Conversion Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of the Notes, if
the value so reflected is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such consolidation, merger or sale.) The Company shall not effect any
such consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to the consummation thereof,
the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from consolidation or
merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes by written instrument (in
form reasonably satisfactory to Majority Noteholders), the obligation to deliver
to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to acquire.
(f) Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated
by the provisions of this paragraph 3 but not expressly provided for by such
provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation
rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the
Company's board of directors shall make an appropriate adjustment in the
Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the holders of the Notes;
7
provided that no such adjustment shall increase the Conversion Price as
otherwise determined pursuant to this paragraph 3 or decrease the number of
shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes then
outstanding.
(g) Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the
Conversion Price, the Company shall send written notice thereof to
the holder of this Note, setting forth in reasonable detail and
certifying the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall send written notice to the
holder of this Note at least 20 days prior to the date on which
the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to
any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with
respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common
Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any
Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give at least 20 days
prior written notice of the date on which any Organic Change,
dissolution or liquidation shall take place.
4. Liquidating Dividends. If the Company declares a dividend upon the
Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of earnings or earned surplus
(determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
consistently applied) except for a stock dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock (a "Liquidating Dividend"), then the Company shall pay to the holders of
the Notes at the time of payment thereof the Liquidating Dividend which would
have been paid to the holder of this Note on the Conversion Stock had this Note
been fully converted immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken
for such Liquidating Dividend, or, if no record is taken, the date as of which
the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends are to be
determined. Nothing in this paragraph 4 in any way shall permit any dividend,
distribution or other payment prohibited, restricted or limited by the Purchase
Agreement.
5. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells
any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants,
securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of
Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then each holder of the Notes shall be
entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the
aggregate Purchase Rights which such holder could have acquired if such holder
had held the number of shares of Conversion Stock acquirable upon conversion of
such holder's Note immediately before the date on which a record is taken for
the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is
taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be
determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
6. Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
the provisions of the Notes may be amended and the Company may take any action
herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by
it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Majority
Noteholders; provided that no such action shall change (i) the rate at which or
the manner in which interest accrues on the Notes or the times at which such
interest becomes payable, (ii) any provision relating to the scheduled payments
8
or prepayments of principal on the Notes or (iii) the Conversion Price of the
Notes or the number of shares or the class of stock into which the Notes are
convertible, without the written consent of all of the holders of the Notes.
7. Definitions. For purposes of the Notes, the following capitalized
terms have the following meanings:
"Common Stock" means, collectively the Company's Common Stock and any
capital stock of any class of the Company hereafter authorized which is not
limited to a fixed sum or percentage of par or stated value in respect to the
rights of the holders thereof to participate in dividends or in the distribution
of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
"Common Stock Deemed Outstanding" means, at any given time, the number
of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding at such time, plus the number of
shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding pursuant to paragraphs 3(c)(i)
and 3(c)(ii) hereof, regardless of whether or not the Options and Convertible
Securities are actually exercisable at such time, but excluding any shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
"Conversion Stock" means shares of the Company's authorized but
unissued Common Stock; provided that if there is a change such that the
securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes are issued by an entity other
than the Company or there is a change in the class of securities so issuable,
then the term "Conversion Stock" shall mean one share of the security issuable
upon conversion of this Note if such security is issuable in shares, or shall
mean the smallest unit in which such security is issuable if such security is
not issuable in shares.
"Market Price" of any security means the average of the closing prices
of such security's sales on all securities exchanges on which such security may
at the time be listed, or, if on any day such security is not so listed, the
average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted in the NASDAQ System
as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on any day such security is not quoted in
the NASDAQ System, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on
such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the National
Quotation Bureau, Incorporated, or any similar successor organization, in each
such case averaged over a period of 21 days consisting of the day as of which
"Market Price" is being determined and the 20 consecutive business days prior to
such day. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange
or quoted in the NASDAQ System or the over-the-counter market, the "Market
Price" shall be the fair value thereof determined jointly by the Company and the
Majority Noteholders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within a
reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be determined by an appraiser
jointly selected by the Company and the Majority Noteholders. The determination
of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the fees and
expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.
"Prime Rate" means the interest rate per annum equal to the highest of
the prime, base or reference rates of interest announced publicly in the Wall
Street Journal or such other publication comparable in scope (whether or not
charged in such instance) by XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx (or any successor thereof) as such
bank's prime, base, or reference rate per annum as in effect on the last day of
each calendar quarter. If XX Xxxxxx Chase discontinues the practice of
9
announcing or publishing a prime, base or reference rate during the term of this
Agreement, then the Majority Noteholders may, in their reasonable judgment,
designate a comparable bank and/or publicly announced rate to be thereafter used
as a basis for determining Prime Rate. The Company acknowledges that XX Xxxxxx
Xxxxx may extend credit at rates of interest less than its announced prime, base
or reference rate.
8. Cancellation. After all principal and accrued interest at any time
owed on this Note has been paid in full, this Note shall be surrendered to the
Company for cancellation and shall not be reissued.
9. Place of Payment. Payments of principal and interest are to be
delivered to the Initial Purchaser at the following address:
Controller, Mercury Marine
W 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx
Xxxx xx Xxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000
or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as specified
by prior written notice to the Company.
10. Usury Laws. It is the intention of the Company and the holder of
this Note to conform strictly to all applicable usury laws now or hereafter in
force, and any interest payable under this Note shall be subject to reduction to
the amount not in excess of the maximum legal amount allowed under the
applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having
jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by
reason of an election by the holder hereof resulting from an Event of Default,
voluntary prepayment by the Company or otherwise, then earned interest may never
include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date
hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted
by law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the
option of the holder hereof either be rebated to the Company or credited on the
principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess
shall be rebated to the Company. The aggregate of all interest (whether
designated as interest, service charges, points or otherwise) contracted for,
chargeable, or receivable under this Note shall under no circumstances exceed
the maximum legal rate upon the unpaid principal balance of this Note remaining
unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate,
it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically
and, if theretofore paid, rebated to the Company or credited on the principal
amount of this Note, or if this Note has been repaid, then such excess shall be
rebated to the Company.
