July 17, 2002 Atlanta, Georgia |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, 1945 THE EXCHANGE, LLC, a Georgia limited liability
company (hereinafter referred to as Maker), promises to pay to the order of THE OHIO NATIONAL
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, an Ohio corporation (hereinafter referred to as Payee; Payee, and any
subsequent holder(s) hereof, being hereinafter referred to collectively as Holder), without
grace, at the office of Payee at One Financial Way, Cincinnati, Ohio 45242, or at such other place
as Holder may designate to Maker in writing from time to time, the principal sum of FOUR MILLION
NINE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($4,900,000.00), together with interest thereon, or on so
much thereof as from time to time may be outstanding and unpaid, at the rates and computed as
hereinafter set forth, in lawful money of the United States of America, which shall at the time of
payment be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, such principal and
interest to be paid in the following manner, to-wit:
From and after the date hereof (until maturity or default as hereinafter provided), interest
shall accrue at the rate of seven and three-quarters percent (7.75%) per annum simple interest,
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year having twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months each, except
that (i) the amount of the installment of interest only hereinbelow stated to be due on the date
hereof shall be equal to the per diem interest amount determined on the basis of a 360-day year
times the actual number of days elapsing from the date hereof through and including the last day of
the month in which this Note is made, and (ii) the amount of the interest portion of the final
installment of principal and interest hereinbelow stated to be due on August 1, 2012 shall be
determined with reference to the aforementioned 360-day year per diem interest amount times the
actual number of days elapsing from the due date of the monthly installment of principal and
interest immediately preceding such final installment due date through the date upon which payment
is made of the installment of principal and interest last becoming due hereunder. Interest only at
said rate shall be due and payable pursuant to (i) above on the date hereof; thereafter, principal
and interest at the aforesaid rate shall be due and payable in one hundred nineteen (119) equal
consecutive monthly installments in the amount of Thirty-Seven Thousand Twelve and No/100 Dollars
($37,012.00) each, which provides for a twenty-five (25)-year amortization basis, commencing on the
first (1st) day of the second (2nd) month after the date hereof and continuing on the first (1st)
day of each and every month thereafter through and including the first (1st) day of July, 2012; and
the entire outstanding principal balance together with accrued but unpaid interest, calculated as
aforesaid, shall be due and payable in full on August 1, 2012.
Each monthly installment of principal and interest made under the foregoing paragraph shall be
applied first to accrued but unpaid interest and the balance shall be applied on account of
principal.
Unless and except as hereinbelow in this paragraph expressly provided, this Note may not be
prepaid in whole or in part, except with the prior written consent of Holder. Provided no default
exists, privilege is reserved by Maker to prepay in whole the unpaid principal balance with accrued
interest thereon to date of payment, upon giving sixty (60) days written notice to Holder of
intention to make such prepayment, on condition that Maker shall also pay, at the time of
prepayment and in addition thereto, a premium equal to the sum of the present values, discounted on
a monthly basis at the discount rate (described below), of each of the then remaining scheduled
monthly payments of principal and interest and the principal and interest due at the loan maturity
date, less the then outstanding principal balance of the loan, but not less than one percent
(1.0%). The discount rate shall be determined as of the close of the business day which is seven
(7) days prior to the date of prepayment and shall be calculated using the U.S. Treasury Note or
Bill having a maturity date on or closest to the loan maturity date. If the maturity of this Note
shall have been accelerated for default, the above prepayment premium shall be charged if permitted
by law. Notwithstanding the above, no prepayment premium shall be due with respect to any payment
of insurance or condemnation proceeds in reduction of the principal balance hereof pursuant to the
provisions of the Deed to Secure Debt (as hereinafter defined). In addition, notwithstanding the
above, during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note, Maker shall have the right to
prepay the entire remaining then outstanding principal balance with accrued interest thereon to
date of payment, without penalty.
It is hereby expressly agreed that should any default be made in the payment of principal and
interest as stipulated above, or should any default be made in the performance of any of the
covenants or conditions contained in the Loan Documents (as that term is hereinafter defined) not
cured within any applicable cure period, then, and in such event, the principal indebtedness
evidenced hereby, and any other sums advanced hereunder or under the Loan Documents, or any of
them, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon, shall, at the option of Holder and without
notice to Maker, at once become due and payable and may be collected forthwith, regardless of the
stipulated date of maturity. While any default exists in the making of any payment or in the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or conditions of this Note or of any
instrument now or hereafter evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced hereby and the then
entire principal balance of this Note has become due and payable, whether at maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise, the undersigned further promises to pay, on each date that an
installment payment on this Note is due, additional interest on the principal balance of this Note
then outstanding at the lesser of (i) the highest rate of interest allowable under the laws of the
State of Georgia, or (ii) five percent (5.0%) per annum, provided that any additional interest
which has accrued shall be paid at the time of and as a condition precedent to the curing of any
default. Time is of the essence of this Note. In the event this Note, or any part thereof, is
collected by or through an attorney-at-law, Maker agrees to pay all costs of collection including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees actually incurred based upon the attorneys normal
hourly rate and the number of hours worked and not the attorneys fees statutorily defined in
O.C.G.A. § 13-1-11.
As long as the regular monthly payment is received on or before the fifth (5th) day of the
month, then such payment shall be deemed to have been made on or before the first (1st) day of the
month. If the payment is not made by the fifth (5th) day of the month, then the loan shall be
considered to be in default from the date such regular monthly payment was due (the first (1st) day
of the month), and the default provisions of this Note shall be operative from the first (1st)
2
day of such month. To defray the extra expenses incurred in handling delinquent payments, a
late charge shall be payable by Maker for any installment payment of principal or interest which is
not paid within five (5) days following the due date thereof, and said late charge shall equal five
percent (5.0%) of the amount paid late.
Presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of demand, protest and non-payment and all
other notices are hereby waived by Maker. No failure to accelerate the debt evidenced hereby by
reason of default hereunder, acceptance of a past due installment, or indulgences granted from time
to time shall be construed (i) as a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby or as a waiver of such right of acceleration or of the right of Holder thereafter
to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note, or (ii) to prevent the exercise of
such right of acceleration or any other right granted hereunder or by applicable law; and Maker
hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which
may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the
foregoing. No extension of the time for the payment of this Note or any installment due hereunder,
made by agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note shall
operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability of Maker under this
Note, either in whole or in part unless Holder agrees otherwise in writing. This Note may not be
changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of
any waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought.
Maker hereby waives and renounces for itself, its heirs, successors, and assigns, all rights
to the benefits of any statute of limitations and any moratorium, reinstatement, marshaling,
forbearance, valuation, stay, extension, redemption, appraisement, exemption and homestead now
provided, or which may hereafter be provided, by the Constitution and laws of the United States of
America and of any state thereof, both as to itself and in and to all of its property, real and
personal, against the enforcement and collection of the obligations evidenced by this Note. Maker
hereby transfers, conveys and assigns to Holder a sufficient amount of such homestead or exemption
as may be set apart in bankruptcy, to pay this Note in full, with all costs of collection, and does
hereby direct any trustee in bankruptcy having possession of such homestead or exemption to deliver
to Holder a sufficient amount of property or money set apart as exempt to pay the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, or any renewal thereof, and does hereby appoint
Holder the attorney-in-fact for Maker to claim any and all homestead exemptions allowed by law.
The indebtedness evidenced by this Note and obligations created hereby are secured by that
certain Deed to Secure Debt and Security Agreement (the Deed; the Deed, together with this Note
and all other documents now or hereafter evidencing or securing or in any way relating to the
indebtedness evidenced hereby, herein referred to collectively as the Loan Documents) entered
into this day between Maker, as Grantor, and Payee, as Grantee, concerning property located in
Cobb County, Georgia; some of which Loan Documents are to be filed for record on or about the date
hereof in the appropriate public records.

Note shall be non recourse and Holders remedies for the repayment of the indebtedness and Makers
other obligations under this Note and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the
Premises (as defined in the Deed), and Holders receipt of the rents, issues and

assets of Maker or Guarantor (hereinafter defined) or from any person or entity comprising Maker or

this Note, the Deed or any other documents securing the loan evidenced by this Note and secured by
the Loan Documents, as well as any claim or judgment (except as hereinafter provided) for any
deficiency remaining after foreclosure of the Deed. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to be a release or impairment of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note
or the security therefor intended by the other Loan Documents or be deemed to preclude Holder from
exercising its rights to foreclose the Deed or to enforce any of its other rights or remedies under
the Loan Documents. It is expressly understood and agreed that the aforementioned limitation on
liability shall in no way affect or apply to Makers or Guarantors liability and continued
liability for any loss suffered by or liability assessed against Holder for the following terms:
