FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned XXXXXX DRIVE AWAY, INC., an Indiana
corporation ("Xxxxxx"), TDI, INC., an Indiana corporation ("TDI"), and XXXXXX
FINANCE, INC., an Indiana corporation ("Finance" and, collectively with Xxxxxx
and TDI, the "Borrowers" and, each individually, a "Borrower"), hereby jointly
and severally promise to pay to the order of BANKBOSTON, N.A., a national
banking association (the "Bank") at the Agent's Head Office (as such term is
defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below):
(a) subject to ss.4.1 of the Credit Agreement, on Term Out
Date the principal amount of TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS ($20,000,000) or,
if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Revolving Credit
Loans advanced by the Bank to the Borrower pursuant to the Revolving
Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated as of January __, 1999 (as amended
and in effect from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), among The
Xxxxxx Group, Inc., the Borrowers, the Bank, the Agent and other
parties thereto;
(b) the principal outstanding hereunder from time to time at
the times provided in the Credit Agreement; and
(c) interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time
outstanding from the Closing Date under the Credit Agreement through
and including the maturity date hereof at the times and at the rate
provided in the Credit Agreement.
This Note evidences borrowings under and has been issued by the
Borrowers in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Bank and any
holder hereof is entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement, the Security
Documents and the other Loan Documents, and may enforce the agreements of the
Borrowers contained therein, and any holder hereof may exercise the respective
remedies provided for thereby or otherwise available in respect thereof, all in
accordance with the respective terms thereof. All capitalized terms used in this
Note and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as in
the Credit Agreement.
Each of the Borrowers irrevocably authorizes the Bank to make or cause
to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit
Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal of this Note, an
appropriate notation on the grid attached to this Note, or the continuation of
such grid, or any other similar record, including computer records, reflecting
the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of
such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on
the grid attached to this Note, or the continuation of such grid, or any other
similar record, including computer records, maintained by the Bank with respect
to any Revolving Credit Loans shall be prima facie evidence of the principal
amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Bank, but the failure to record, or any
error in so recording, any such amount on any such grid, continuation or other
record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers
hereunder or under the Credit Agreement to make payments of principal of and
interest on this Note when due.
The Borrowers have the right in certain circumstances and the
obligation under certain other circumstances to prepay the whole or part of the
principal of this Note on the terms and conditions specified in the Credit
Agreement.
If any one or more of the Events of Default shall occur, the entire
unpaid principal amount of this Note and all of the unpaid interest accrued
thereon may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with the
effect provided in the Credit Agreement.
No delay or omission on the part of the Bank or any holder hereof in
exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any
other rights of the Bank or such holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver
on any one occasion be deemed a bar or waiver of the same or any other right on
any further occasion.
Each of the Borrowers and every endorser and guarantor of this Note or
the obligation represented hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest
and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance,
performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assents to any extension
or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any
substitution, exchange or release of collateral and to the addition or release
of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.
THIS NOTE AND THE JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWERS
HEREUNDER SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAW OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS (EXCLUDING THE LAWS APPLICABLE TO
CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF LAW). EACH OF THE BORROWERS AGREES THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE
ENFORCEMENT OF THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF
MASSACHUSETTS OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND THE CONSENT TO THE
NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND THE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH
SUIT BEING MADE UPON THE BORROWERS BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN ss.21 OF
THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE BORROWERS HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT
MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR
THAT SUCH SUIT IS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT.
This Note shall be deemed to take effect as a sealed instrument under
the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Revolving
Credit Note to be signed in its corporate name by its duly authorized officer as
of the day and year first above written.
