PROMISE TO PAY. Siboney Learning Group Inc.; and Siboney
Corporation (“Borrower”) jointly and severally promise
to pay to Southwest Bank, an M&I Bank (“Lender”),
or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the
principal amount of One Million Three Hundred Twenty-five
Thousand & 00/100 Dollars ($1,325,000.00) or so much as
may be outstanding, together with interest 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 April 1, 2009. In addition, Borrower will pay regular
monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each
payment date, beginning February 1, 2009, with all subsequent
interest payments to be due on the same day of each month after
that. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law,
payments will be applied to Accrued Interest, Principal, Late
Charges, and Escrow. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s
address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate
in writing. VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest
rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on
changes in an independent index which is the one month British
Bankers Association (BBA) LIBOR and reported by a major news
service selected by Lender (such as Reuters, Bloomberg or Moneyline
Telerate). If BBA LIBOR for the one month period is not
provided or reported on the first day of a month because, for
example, it is a weekend or holiday or for another reason, the One
Month LIBOR Rate shall be established as of the preceding day on
which a BBA LIBOR rate is provided for the one month period and
reported by the selected news service (the
“Index”). The Index is not necessarily the
lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index
becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may
designate a substitute index after notifying
Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index
rate upon Borrower’s request. The interest rate
change will not occur more often than each first day of each
calendar month and will become effective without notice to the
Borrower. Borrower understands that Lender may make
loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently
is 0.436% per annum. The interest rate to be applied to
the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be calculated as
described in the “INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD”
paragraph using a rate of 3.500 percentage points over the Index,
adjusted if necessary for any minimum and maximum rate limitations
described below, resulting in an initial rate of 4.500% per annum
based on a year of 360
days. NOTICE: Under no circumstances
will the interest rate on this Note be less than 4.500% per annum
or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note is
computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the
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. All Interest
payable under this Note is computed using this method.
PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other
prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan
and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether
voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required
by law. Except for the foregoing, 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, early
payments will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees not
to send Lender payments marked “paid in full”,
“without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower
sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of
Lender’s rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain
obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written
communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or
other payment instrument that indicates that the payment
constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or
that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full
satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to:
Southwest Bank, an M&I Bank; St Louis Region Commercial
Lending; 13205 Manchester Road; Des Peres, MO 63131. LATE
CHARGE. If a payment is more than 10 days late, Borrower will be
charged 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled
payment. INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including
failure to pay upon final maturity, the interest rate on this
Note shall be increased by adding a 3.000 percentage point
margin (“Default Rate Margin”). The Default Rate Margin
shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would
have applied had there been no default. However, in no event will
the interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate limitations
under applicable law. DEFAULT. Each of the following shall
constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”)
under this Note. Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any
payment when due under this Note. Other Defaults. Borrower
fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the
related documents or to comply with or to perform any term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement
between Lender and Borrower.
