A portion of the proceeds from the Revolver and the Term Loan were used to retire the outstanding balance owed to Bank of Texas, N.A. under an existing credit facility.
The Term Loan and the Revolver are being guaranteed by the Company, Dougherty’s Holdings, Inc. Medicine Man, LP, Dougherty’s LP Holdings, Inc., Medicine Man GP, LLC, Alvin Medicine Man GP, LLC, Angleton Medicine Man GP, LLC and Santa Fe Medicine Man GP, LLC.

All outstanding principal under the Revolver plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon is due and payable in full on February 20, 2009. On a monthly basis beginning on April 1, 2007, the Borrowers will pay to Lender a one-half percent per annum commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Revolver.
The Term Loan bears interest at the Lender’s prime rate plus 0.25%. Principal payments of $45,833.33 and accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loan is due monthly beginning on March 20, 2007.
