2.2                  Term of Loan; No Extension Right. The Loan shall be for a term commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Maturity Date. There shall be no extension right.

2. 3                  Interest.

2. 3.1                    Contract Rate.  The unpaid principal balance of the Loan from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at the Contract Rate.  Interest shall be computed hereunder on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365/366 days and paid for on the actual number of days elapsed for any whole or partial month in which interest is being calculated.

2. 3.2                    Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof (whether or not Lender has accelerated payment of the Loan) and from and after the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal balance of all Obligations (including all unpaid installments of interest under the Note) shall bear interest, at the Default Rate.

2. 3.4                    Interest Installments.  Monthly payments of accrued, but unpaid interest only shall be due and payable on the  1st day of each month during the Term of the Loan, beginning on August 1, 2013 and with a like such installment being due and payable on the  1st day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter for the first three (3) months of the Term.  Thereafter, payments will be due and payable per Section 2.4.1.

2. 3.5                    Recapture of Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the amount of interest to be paid by Borrower would exceed the Maximum Legal Rate, then the interest payable under this Agreement shall be computed upon the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate, but any subsequent reduction in the Contract Rate or Default Rate, as applicable, shall not reduce such interest thereafter payable hereunder below the amount computed on the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate until the aggregate amount of such interest accrued and payable under this Agreement equals the total amount of interest which would have accrued if such interest had been at all times computed solely on the basis of the Contract Rate or Default Rate, as applicable.

2. 3.6                  Maximum Legal Rate.  All agreements between Borrower, Guarantors, and Lender are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use or the forbearance of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Note exceed the Maximum Legal Rate.  As used herein, the Maximum Legal Rate shall mean the Maximum Legal Rate in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, in the event that there is a change in the Maximum Legal Rate which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then the Maximum Legal Rate shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.  In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of Borrower, Lender and Lender in the execution, delivery and acceptance of this Agreement and the Notes to contract in strict compliance with the laws of the State of Texas from time to time in effect.  If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity, and if under or from any circumstances whatsoever Lender should ever receive as interest any amount which would exceed the Maximum Legal Rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and not to the payment of interest.  This provision shall control every other provision of all agreements between Borrower, Guarantor and Lender.

The provisions of this Section 2.3.6 shall be deemed to be incorporated into every document or communication relating to the Obligations which sets forth or prescribes any account, right or claim or alleged account, right or claim of Agent and/or Lenders with respect to Borrower (or any other obligor in respect of Obligations), whether or not any provision of this Section 2.3.6 is referred to therein.  All such documents and communications and all figures set forth therein shall, for the sole purpose of computing the extent of the Obligations and obligations of the Borrower (or other obligor) asserted by Lender thereunder, be automatically recomputed by Borrower or any other obligor, and by any court considering the same, to give effect to the adjustments or credits required by this Section 2. 3.6.

2. 4                  Principal and Interest Repayment.

2.4.1                    Loan Payments.  Beginning on the 1st day of November 2013, monthly payments of principal and interest shall be due and payable, with a like installment being due and payable on the 1st day of each month thereafter during the Term of the Loan, and the entire outstanding balance of the Loan shall be due and payable in full at Maturity. The monthly payments of principal and interest will be amortized over the remainder of the Loan Term (33 months) at the Contract Rate.

2.4.2                    Prepayment and Certain Payments.  Subject to the terms of this Section 2.4.2, all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan may be prepaid at any time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Borrower elects to pre-pay all or part of the Loan during the first six (6) months of the Term, then Borrower will be required to pay to Lender the Prepayment Premium.  Following the sixth month anniversary of the Loan, Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, without premium or penalty, by a payment to Lender of immediately available Dollars by the Borrower. Any partial prepayment of principal shall first be applied to any installment of principal then due and owing and shall then be applied to installments of principal due in the reverse order of maturity, and no such partial prepayment shall relieve Borrower of the obligation to pay each subsequent installment of principal when due.

2. 6                  Taxes or Assessments.  If after the date hereof, any federal or state laws, rules or regulations are changed and the compliance by Lender with any law, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency: (a) shall subject Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any loans made by Lender, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loan or any other amounts due under this Agreement; (b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any assessment or other charge (including any assessment for insurance of deposits) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Lender; (c) shall impose on Lender any other condition affecting this Agreement, the Loan or the Note and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Loan hereunder, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender under this Agreement or under their Note, then Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof in writing stating the reasons therefor and the additional amounts required to fully compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount as reasonably determined by Lender and, within ten (10) days after demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay directly to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for that portion of such cost, increased cost or such reduction which relates to the Obligations of Borrower.  No federal, state, local or foreign taxes based on gross or net income, or any franchise, net worth or capital tax payable by Lender, shall be considered in making the determination of increased cost or reduction in amount receivable to Lender under this Section 2. 6.1.  Lender shall not be entitled to make a demand for and Borrower shall not be liable for payment of any amount under the terms of this provision following payment in full of the Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Cost To Repair does not exceed $100,000, Lender shall release so much of the insurance proceeds as may be required to pay for the actual Cost to Repair in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.4 if: (i) in Lender's good faith judgment such proceeds, together with any additional funds that may be deposited with and pledged to Lender for the benefit of Lender, are sufficient to pay for the Cost To Repair; (ii) in Lender's good faith judgment the Repair Work is likely to be completed prior to the Maturity Date; (iii) no Event of Default or monetary Default exists under the Loan Documents; and (iv) as soon as is reasonably practical, Borrower commences such Repair Work and diligently prosecutes such Repair Work to completion.

-18-

                                        (iii) If the Cost To Repair does not exceed $100,000, the funds to pay therefor shall be released to Borrower.  Funds shall be released upon final completion of the Repair Work, unless Borrower requests earlier funding, in which event partial disbursements shall be made prior to final completion of the repair, restoration or replacement and the balance of the disbursements shall be made upon full completion and the receipt by Lender of satisfactory evidence of payment and release of all liens;

                                        (iv) Determination by Lender that the undisbursed balance of such proceeds on deposit with Lender, together with additional funds deposited for the purpose, shall be at least sufficient to pay for the remaining Cost To Repair, free and clear of all liens and claims for lien;

                                        (v) The absence of any Event of Default or monetary Default under any Loan Documents.

13.5                  Application of Unreleased Proceeds.  To the extent that any insurance proceeds are not released to Borrower pursuant to this Section 13, such proceeds will be applied to the outstanding Obligations.
