DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE IN TERMS. THE MATURITY DATE ON THIS LINE OF CREDIT LOAN IS
EXTENDED TO DECEMBER 10, 2000. ALL OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS REMAIN THE SAME.
PROMISE TO PAY. FAFCO, INC. ("BORROWER") PROMISES TO PAY TO BUTTE COMMUNITY BANK
("LENDER"), OR ORDER, IN LAWFUL MONEY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, THE
PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF THREE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND & 00/100 DOLLARS
($3,400,000.00) OR SO MUCH AS MAYBE OUTSTANDING, TOGETHER WITH INTEREST AT THE
RATE OF 9.050% ON THE UNPAID OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF EACH ADVANCE.
INTEREST SHALL BE CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF EACH ADVANCE UNTIL REPAYMENT OF
EACH ADVANCE.
PAYMENT. BORROWER WILL PAY THIS LOAN IN ONE PAYMENT OF ALL OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL
PLUS ALL ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST ON DECEMBER 10, 2000. IN ADDITION, BORROWER
WILL PAY REGULAR MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF ACCRUED UNPAID INTEREST BEGINNING NOVEMBER
10, 2000, ALL SUBSEQUENT INTEREST PAYMENTS ARE DUE ON THE SAME DAY OF EACH MONTH
AFTER THAT. The annual interest rate for this Agreement is computed on a 365/360
basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of
360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the
actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay
Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may
designate in writing. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law,
payments will be applied first to any unpaid collection costs and any late
charges, then to any unpaid interest, and any remaining amount to principal.
PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. In any event, even upon full prepayment of
this Agreement, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a MINIMUM
INTEREST CHARGE OF $50.00. Other than Borrower's obligation to pay any minimum
interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount
owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender
in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make
payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, they will reduce the principal
balance due.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 DAYS OR MORE LATE, Borrower will be charged
5.000% OF THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED PAYMENT OR $5.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
DEFAULT. Borrower will be in default if any of the following happens: (a)
Borrower fails to make any payment when due. (b) Borrower breaks any promise
Borrower has made to Lender, or Borrower fails to comply with or to perform when
due any other term, obligation, covenant, or condition contained in this
Agreement or any agreement related to this Agreement, or in any other agreement
or loan Borrower has with Lender. (c) Borrower defaults under any loan,
extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any
other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially
affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or
perform Borrower's obligations under this Note or any of the Related Documents.
(d) Any representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or
on Borrower's behalf is false or misleading in any material respect either now
or at the time made or furnished. (e) Borrower becomes insolvent, a receiver is
appointed for any part of Borrower's property, Borrower makes an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or any proceeding is commenced either by Borrower or
against Borrower under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws. (f) Any creditor tries
to take any of Borrower's property on or in which Lender has a lien or security
interest. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts with Lender.
(g) Any guarantor dies or any of the other events described in this default
section occurs with respect to any guarantor of this Agreement. (h) A material
adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial condition, or Lender believes the
prospect of payment or performance of the Indebtedness is impaired.
If any default, other than a default in payment, is curable and if Borrower has
not been given a notice of a breach of the same provision of this Agreement
within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured (and no event of
default will have occurred) if Borrower, after receiving written notice from
Lender demanding cure of such default: (a) cures the default within fifteen
(15) days; or (b) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately
initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole discretion to be sufficient
to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and
necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably
practical.
LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance on this Agreement and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due,
without notice, and then Borrower will pay that amount. Lender may hire or pay
someone else to help collect this Agreement if Borrower does not pay. Borrower
also will pay Lender that amount. This includes, subject to any limits under
applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees and Lender's legal expenses whether or
not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for
bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic
stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection
services. Borrower also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums
provided by law. THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO LENDER AND ACCEPTED BY
LENDER IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. IF THERE IS A LAWSUIT, BORROWER AGREES UPON
LENDER'S REQUEST TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF BUTTE COUNTY,
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
DISHONORED ITEM FEE. Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $10.00 if Borrower
makes a payment on Borrower's loan and the check or preauthorized charge with
which Borrower pays is later dishonored.
COLLATERAL. Borrower acknowledges this Agreement is secured by a Deed of Trust
dated October 16, 2000, to a trustee in favor of Lender on real property
located in BUTTE County, State of California. That agreement contains the
following due on sale provision: Lender may, at its option, declare immediately
due and payable all sums secured by this Agreement upon the sale or transfer,
without the Lender's prior written consent, of all or any part of the Real
Property, or any interest in the Real Property. A "sale or transfer" means the
conveyance of Real Property or any right, title or interest therein; whether
legal, beneficial or equitable; whether voluntary or involuntary; whether by
outright sale, deed, installment sale contract, land contract, contract for
deed, leasehold interest with a term greater than three (3) years, lease-option
contract, or by sale, assignment, or transfer of any beneficial interest in or
to any land trust holding title to the Real Property, or by any other method of
conveyance of Real Property interest. If any Trustor is a corporation,
partnership or limited liability company, transfer also includes any change in
ownership of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting stock,
partnership interests or limited liability company interests, as the case may
be, of Trustor. However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender if such
exercise is prohibited by applicable law.
LINE OF CREDIT. This Agreement evidences a straight line of credit. Once the
total amount of principal has been advanced, Borrower is not entitled to further
loan advances. Borrower agrees to be liable for all sums either: (a) advanced in
accordance with the instructions of an authorized person or (b) credited to any
of Borrower's accounts with Lender. The unpaid principal balance owing on this
Agreement at any time may be evidenced by endorsements on this Agreement or by
Lender's internal records, including daily computer print-outs.
CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of
the original obligation or obligations, including all agreements evidenced or
securing the obligation(s), remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
Consent by Lender to this Agreement does not waive Lender's right to strict
performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any
future change in terms. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction
of the obligation(s). It is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties
all makers and endorsers of the original obligation(s), including accommodation
parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or
endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this
Agreement. If any person who signed the original obligation does not sign this
Agreement below, then all persons signing below acknowledge that this Agreement
is given conditionally, based on the representation to Lender that the
non-signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or
otherwise will not be released by it. This waiver applies not only to any
initial extension, modification or release, but also to all such subsequent
actions.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. Lender may delay or forgo enforcing any of its rights
or remedies under this Agreement without losing them. Borrower and any other
person who signs, guarantees or endorses this Agreement, to the extent allowed
by law, waive any applicable statute of limitations, presentment, demand for
payment, protest and notice of dishonor. Upon any change in the terms of this
Agreement, and unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party who signs
this Agreement, whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser,
shall be released from liability. All such parties agree that Lender may renew
or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan, or release any
party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect
Lender's security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed
necessary by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties
also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to
anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made.
