FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, WLG (USA) LLC and World Commerce Services, L.L.C., limited liability companies organized and existing under the laws of the State of Illinois with principal places of business located at 920 East Algonquin Road, Suite 120, Schaumburg, Illinois 60173 (each a “Borrower” and collectively, the "Borrowers"), promise to pay to the order of NOVA Business Credit, a division of NOVA Bank with offices located at 1235 Westlakes Drive, Berwyn, PA 19312 (the “Lender”) the principal sum of  Three Million  Dollars ($3,000,000.00) or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all advances made by the Lender to the Borrowers under the Loan and Security Agreement dated of even date between the Borrowers and Lender (as amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”), pursuant to the “Revolving Loans” and the “Loans” as defined in the Agreement,  together with interest, from the date of this note (“Note”), in like money, at said office of the Lender, at the time and at rates per annum as provided in the Agreement.
 
This Note is issued pursuant to the Agreement between the Borrowers and the Lender, and is the Revolving Loan Note referred to in the Agreement.  All terms used and not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.  Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default set forth in the Agreement, the entire unpaid balance of principal and accrued interest of this Note and all other amounts due under the Agreement shall, at the option of the Lender, be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived.
 
Payment Schedule.
 
(a)           Interest only shall be due and payable monthly, in arrears, at the rate or rates per annum specified in the Agreement, commencing on the first day of March, 2010 and continuing on the first day of each succeeding month, until all indebtedness and obligations owing under this Note are paid finally and in full.
 
(b)           All principal due and owing under this Note shall be paid on the earliest of (i) the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default or, (iii) the giving of notice of termination of the Agreement pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement.
 
(c)           In the event that; (i) any payment under this Note shall not be received by the Lender within five (5) days of the date it is due and, (ii) there is insufficient Borrowing Base to allow an advance against the Revolving Credit to make such payment, the Borrowers, or either of them, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Lender a late charge of 10% of the overdue payment. Any such late charges assessed shall be immediately due and payable and shall constitute Obligations as defined in the Agreement..
 
Time is of the essence of this Note.  All payments of principal and interest shall be made in full in lawful money of the United States of America, without set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding for any reason whatsoever, at the offices of the Lender, or at such other place as may be directed by the Lender.
