FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, NTS/VIRGINIA DEVELOPMENT COMPANY , a
Virginia corporation (the “Borrower”), with an address
at 10172 Linn Station Road, Louisville, Kentucky 40223, promises to
pay to the order of RESIDENTIAL MANAGEMENT COMPANY , a
Kentucky corporation (the “Lender”), in lawful money of
the United States of America in immediately available funds at its
offices located at 10172 Linn Station Road, Louisville, Kentucky
40223, or at such other location as the Lender may designate from
time to time, the principal sum of THREE MILLION TWO HUNDRED FORTY
FOUR THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED ONE AND 94/00 DOLLARS ($3,244,701.94)
(the “Loan”), together with interest accruing on the
outstanding principal balance from the date hereof, as provided
below:
1.
Interest Rate . The principal balance of the Loan will bear
interest at a rate per annum (calculated on the basis of the actual
number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360
days) equal to the sum of (A) the Index, plus (B) one and
three quarters percent (1 ¾ %) per annum. The Index is the
rate of interest per annum equal to LIBOR. “LIBOR”
shall mean the rate per annum determined by the Lender by dividing
(the resulting quotient rounded upwards, if necessary, to the
nearest 1/100 th of 1%) (x) the Published Rate by (y) a
number equal to 1.00 minus the percentage prescribed by the Federal
Reserve for determining the maximum reserve requirements with
respect to any eurocurrency funding by banks on such day.
“Published Rate” shall mean the rate of interest
published each Business Day in The Wall Street Journal “Money
Rates” listing under the caption “London Interbank
Offered Rates” for a one month period (or, if no such rate is
published therein for any reason, then the Published Rate shall be
the eurodollar rate for a one month period as published in another
publication determined by Lender). The rate of interest charged
shall be adjusted as of each Business Day based on changes in LIBOR
without notice to Borrower, and shall be applicable to the then
outstanding balance under the Loan from the effective date of any
such change. If LIBOR applies, all calculations of interest on the
Loan will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid
on the actual number of days elapsed.
If
Lender determines (which determination shall be final and
conclusive) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the
eurodollar market generally, deposits in dollars (in the applicable
amounts) are not being offered to banks in eurodollar market for
the selected term, or adequate means do not exist for ascertaining
LIBOR, then Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower.
Thereafter, until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) the
availability of LIBOR shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate
per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Prime Rate minus (B) three
quarters percent (.75%) (the “Base Rate”). The Prime
Rate is the rate publicly announced by PNC Bank National
Association (“PNC Bank”) from time to time as its prime
rate; it is not tied to any rate external to PNC Bank or index and
does not necessarily reflect the lowest rate of interest actually
charged by PNC Bank to any particular class or category of
customers. The rate of interest charged shall be
adjusted when the Prime Rate
changes without notice to Borrower, and shall be applicable to the
then outstanding balance under the Loan from the effective date of
any such change.
In
addition, if, after this date, Lender shall determine (which
determination shall be final and conclusive) that any enactment,
promulgation or adoption of or any change in any applicable law,
rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by Lender with any guideline, request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank of comparable agency shall made it unlawful
or impossible for Lender to make or maintain or fund loans bearing
interest based on LIBOR, Lender shall notify Borrower. Upon receipt
of such notice, until Lender notifies Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply,
(a) the availability of LIBOR shall be suspended, and (b) the
interest rate for the unpaid balance of the Loan advances shall be
converted to the next Business Day to the Base Rate. For purposes
hereof “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a
Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday on which commercial banks are
authorized or required by law to be closed for business in
Louisville, Kentucky.
In
no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum
rate allowed by law.
2.
Payment Terms . Interest shall be due and payable commencing
on the first day of each month beginning January 1, 2009 until
December 31, 2009 on which date all outstanding principal and
accrued interest shall be due and payable in full (the
“Maturity Date”). Payments received will be applied to
charges, fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees),
accrued interest and principal in any order the Lender may choose,
in its sole discretion.
3.
Late Payments; Default Rate . If a payment is more than 15
days late, the Borrower shall also pay to the Lender a late charge
equal to 5% of the unpaid portion of the payment or $100, whichever
is greater (the “Late Charge”). Such 15 day period
shall not be construed in any way to extend the due date of any
such payment. Upon maturity, whether by acceleration, demand or
otherwise, and at the option of the Lender upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and during the
continuance thereof, this Note shall bear interest at a rate per
annum (calculated on the basis of the actual number of days that
principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days) which shall be
four percentage points (4%) in excess of the Base Rate in effect
from time to time but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law
(the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall continue
to apply whether or not judgment shall be e
