(Revolving)
$2,500,000.00 Phoenix, Arizona
May 5, 2005
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned GLOBAL AIRCRAFT SOLUTIONS, INC., FKA
RENEGADE VENTURE CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ AEROSPACE
TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter collectively called
"Borrower"), jointly and severally promise to pay to the order of ***********
BANK, a banking corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State
of Wisconsin (together with all subsequent holders of this Note, hereinafter
called "Lender"), at*****************, Phoenix, Arizona 85012, or at such other
place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of
TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00), or so much
as may be outstanding, plus interest (based on a 360-day year and charged on the
basis of actual days elapsed) from the date hereof on the principal balance from
time to time outstanding as hereinafter provided, principal, interest and all
other sums payable hereunder to be paid in lawful money of the United States of
America as follows:
A. Interest shall accrue at the rate of three and one half (3.5%)
per annum in excess of the Applicable LIBOR Rate (defined below).
The interest rate on this indebtedness shall change from time to
time on the effective date of, and in conformity with, changes in
the Applicable LIBOR Rate. All accrued interest only shall be due
and payable on the first day of each and every month commencing
with the first month after the date of this Note. In addition,
all accrued interest shall be due and payable on the last day of
this Note. If a payment date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or a day
that Lender's offices are closed for a holiday, the payment shall
be deemed due in the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or
a day that Lender's offices are closed for the holiday.
B. The entire unpaid principal balance, all accrued and unpaid
interest and all other sums payable hereunder shall be due and
payable in full on April 30, 2006.
C. In addition to accrued interest, repayments of principal shall be
due and payable from time to time as required under the terms of
the Loan Agreement, defined below.
The principal balance of this Note represents a revolving credit all or any
part of which may be advanced to Borrower, repaid by Borrower, and
re-advanced to Borrower from time to time, subject to and only in
accordance with the other terms, conditions and provisions hereof and the
terms, conditions and provisions, contained in the Loan Agreement, defined
below, and provided that the principal balance outstanding at any one time
shall not exceed the face amount hereof.
"Applicable LIBOR Rate" shall mean the U.S. Dollar rate (rounded
upward to the nearest one-sixteenth of one percent) listed on page 3750
(i.e., the LIBOR Page) of the Telerate News Services titled British
Association Interest Settlement Rates for a designated maturity of one(1)
month, determined as of 11:00 a.m. London Time on the Determination Date.
If the Telerate News Services publishes more than one(1) such LIBOR Rate,
the average of such rates shall apply. If the Telerate News Services ceases
to publish the LIBOR Rate, then the LIBOR Rate shall be determined from
such substitute financial reporting service as Lender in its discretion
shall determine. If requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Borrower shall acknowledge in
writing Borrower's agreement to such substitute financial reporting service
designated by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fails to so acknowledge ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may
declare immediately due and payable all principal then outstanding
hereunder together with all interest then accrued and unpaid, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇
shall have no further obligation to advance any funds to borrower under any
of the Loan Documents.
"Determination Date" shall mean (i) the day that is both a Eurodollar
Business Day and a Business Day immediately preceding the date on which any
portion of the loan evidenced by this Note is first advanced to or for the
benefit of Borrower; and (ii) thereafter, the day that is both a Eurodollar
Business Day and a Business Day immediately preceding each calendar month,
or more frequently if elected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇.
"Eurodollar Business Day" means any day on which banks in the City of
London are generally open for interbank or foreign exchange transactions.
"Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, public
holiday, or other day when commercial banks in Arizona are authorized or
required to close.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to an effective rate of interest that is the rate
stated above plus any additional rate of interest resulting from any other
charges in the nature of interest paid or to be paid by or on behalf of
Borrower, or any benefit received or to be received by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in
connection with this Note. No provision of this Note is intended to or
shall require or permit Lender, directly or indirectly, to take, collect or
receive in money, goods or in any other form, any interest (including
amounts deemed by law to be interest) in excess of the maximum rate of
interest permitted by applicable law. If any amount due from or paid by
Borrower shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
interest in excess of such maximum rate, Borrower shall not be obligated to
pay such excess and, if paid, such excess shall be applied against the
unpaid principal balance of this Note, or if and to the extent that this
Note has been paid in full, such excess shall be remitted to Borrower.
If any amount required under this Note to be paid, including balloon
payments and matured or accelerated amounts, is not paid within ten (10)
days after the date it is due, than Borrower shall pay a "late charge"
equal to five percent (5%) of the amount which was due to compensate Lender
for administrative expenses and other costs of delinquent payments. This
late charge may be assessed without notice, shall be immediately due and
payable whether or not Lender undertakes an affirmative action to assess
it, and shall be in addition to all other right and remedies available to
Lender.
All payments on this Note shall be applied first to the payment of any
costs, fees or other charges incurred in connection with the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, next to the payment of accrued interest and then to the
reduction of the principal balance.
This Note is issued pursuant to that Loan Agreement (the "Loan
Agreement") of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender. This Note
and the Loan Agreement, together with all other documents or instruments
evidencing, securing, or executed or delivered in connection with the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note, are hereinafter called the "Loan
Documents." Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement, unless the context
dictates otherwise.
Time is of the essence of this Note. At the option of Lender, the
entire unpaid principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all
other amounts payable hereunder shall become immediately due and payable
without notice upon the failure to pay any sum due and owing hereunder as
provided herein if such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after
written notice hereof to Borrower or upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, as defined in the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents.
After maturity, including maturity upon acceleration, the unpaid
principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts
payable hereunder shall bear interest at that rate that is six percent (6%)
above the rate that would otherwise be payable under the terms hereof. In
the event of any court proceedings, court costs and attorney's fees shall
be set by the court and not by jury, shall be included in any judgment
obtained by the prevailing party, and, if the prevailing party is ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
Failure of Lender to exercise any option hereunder shall not
constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same in the event of any
subsequent default or in the event of continuance of any existing default
after demand for strict performance hereof.
Borrower, sureties, guarantors and endorsers hereof: (a) agree to be
jointly and severally bound, (b) severally waive any homestead or exemption
right against said debt, (c) severally waive demand, diligence, presentment for
payment, protest and demand, and notice of extension, dishonor, protest, demand
and nonpayment of this Note, except Borrower does not waive any rights to notice
prior to an acceleration and (d) consent that Lender may extend the time of
payment or otherwise modify the terms of payment of any part or the whole of the
debt evidenced by this Note, at the request of any other person primarily liable
hereon, and such consent shall not alter nor diminish the liability of any
person.
This note shall be binding upon Borrower and its successors and assigns and
shall inure to the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and their successors and assigns.
All notices required or permitted in connection with this Note shall be
given at the place and in the matter provided in the Loan Agreement for the
giving of notices.
This Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty.
This Note shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the
State of Arizona.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, these presents are executed as of the date first
written above.
