FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
and at the times hereinafter specified, the undersigned
(“Maker”) hereby promises to pay to the order of
Spyglass Investment Partnership (hereinafter referred to, together
with each subsequent holder hereof, as “Holder”), at
such address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by
any Holder, the principal sum of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND
NO/100THS DOLLARS ($250,000.00), or so much thereof as shall have
been advanced to or for the benefit of Maker, whichever is less,
together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from
time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the
United States of America.
The term of this note
shall commence as of the date hereof and, if not sooner paid, the
entire unpaid principal indebtedness, all accrued and unpaid
interest, and all other sums payable in connection with this note
shall be due and payable on May 31, 2009 (the “Maturity
Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence,
the maturity date of this note may be extended at the option of
Maker for a period of one year following the Maturity Date provided
Holder receives a renewal fee equal to 1.5% of the then outstanding
principal balance due. In no event shall the maturity
date of this note be later than May 31, 2010.
During the period
commencing on the date hereof and continuing until this note is
paid in full, (a) interest on the principal balance of this note
shall accrue at the rate of 15% per annum and (b) interest payments
shall be made every 90 days, beginning 90 days for the date
hereof. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year, calculated for the actual number of days elapsed.
Whenever any payment
to be made hereunder is due on a day other than a Business Day,
such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the
computation of payment of interest. “Business
Day” shall mean a day on which Holder’s offices are
open for business in Denver, Colorado.
Maker may prepay this
note in whole or in part.
All payments
hereunder shall, at Holder’s option, be applied first to the
payment of accrued interest at the rate specified below, if any,
second, to accrued interest first specified above, and the balance
applied in reduction of the principal amount. If any
payment is not paid when due hereunder, then the entire outstanding
balance hereunder, including the interest component of the
delinquent payment, shall bear interest from the date such payment
was due until such payment is paid at a rate equal to 24.00% per
annum (the “Default Rate”). In addition,
upon the maturity date hereof
