PROMISSORY NOTE

 

 

 

$7,703,367.57   

Boston, Massachusetts

Date: As of September 26, 2013

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (also referred to herein as the “Borrower”) promises to pay to the order of

Salem Five Cents Savings Bank

(hereinafter, with any subsequent holder, the “Bank”)

at an office of the Bank, the sum of SEVEN MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THREE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED SIXTY SEVEN AND 57/100 DOLLARS ($7,703,367.57), or so much thereof as may have been advanced, with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note (based upon a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual day months) at a fixed rate to be determined as follows:

Commencing as of the date hereof until the Change Date (as defined below), the interest rate shall be fixed at the rate of four and 43/100 percent (4.43%) per annum. Thereafter, on September 26, 2018 (the “Change Date”), the interest rate will be adjusted to a per annum fixed rate (to be applicable until the Maturity Date), equal to the aggregate of the FHLB Five Year Classic Regular Advance Rate (as defined below) quoted as of the Change Date plus two hundred forty (240) basis points. The term “FHLB Five Year Classic Regular Advance Rate” means, as of the date of any calculation or determination, the most recent published Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston Classic Regular Advance Rate for five (5) year maturities. In the event that the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston announces more than one “Classic Advance Rate” for the indicated term, the Classic Advance Rate selected by the Bank from those so announced (plus the spread) shall be the rate applicable hereto. In the event that the Change Date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the Change Date shall be deemed to occur on the first business day next following such Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence of any Event of Default and until paid in full, the outstanding principal of this Note shall bear interest at the greater of (i) five percent (5%) above the interest rate in effect as of the occurrence of such default, and (ii) eighteen percent (18%) per annum. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360 day banking year and charged for the actual number of calendar days elapsed.

Principal and interest on this Note shall be repaid as follows:

(a) Commencing October 26, 2013 and on the like day of each calendar month thereafter, through and including September 26, 2018, the Borrower shall make monthly payments of principal and interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof, each in the amount of Fifty Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Six and 59/100 Dollars ($57,996.59).

(b) Commencing October 26, 2018 and on the like day of each calendar month thereafter, the required monthly payments of principal and interest shall be adjusted to reflect the change in the interest rate applicable hereto, with such adjusted monthly payments to be based upon (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note as of the Change Date; (y) the fixed rate of interest then in effect; and (z) an amortization schedule equal to 180 months less the number of months from the date of this Note through and including the Change Date.

(c) In all events and under all circumstances, the entire outstanding principal balance hereof and all accrued and unpaid interest hereon shall be due and payable on September 26, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).

If the entire amount of any required periodic payment of principal and/or interest is not paid in full within ten (10) days after the same is due (excluding in any event sums due upon acceleration or maturity), the Borrower shall pay to the Bank a late fee equal to three percent (3%) of the required payment.

The Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note by paying, in addition to the payment of principal, accrued interest and any other sums due to the Bank at the time of prepayment, a prepayment premium in an amount equal to the percentage of the amount of principal being prepaid as follows: (i) three percent (3.00%) of any principal amount prepaid during the first and sixth years of this Note; (ii) one and one half percent (1.50%) of any principal amount prepaid on this Note during the second, third, seventh and eighth years of this Note; (iii) one half (.50%) percent of any principal amount prepaid on this Note during the fourth and ninth years of this Note; and (iv) zero percent (0.00%) of any principal amount prepaid on this Note during the fifth and tenth years of this Note.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no prepayment penalty if such prepayment is made as required pursuant to Section 4-25 of Mortgage.

Any payment received by the Bank on account of this Note (which shall be made by ACH wire transfer) prior to demand or acceleration shall be applied first, to any costs, expenses, or charges then owed the Bank by the undersigned, second, to accrued and unpaid interest, and third, to the unpaid principal balance hereof. Any payments so received after demand or

acceleration shall be applied in such manner as the Bank may determine. The undersigned hereby authorizes the Bank to charge any deposit account which the undersigned may maintain with the Bank for any payment required hereunder.

The undersigned represents to the Bank that the proceeds of this Note will not be used for personal, family, or household purposes.

The Bank, at its option, may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and accrued unpaid interest thereon to be immediately due and payable without demand, notice or protest (which are hereby waived) upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events (herein, “Events of Default”):

In addition, at the Bank’s option and without demand, notice or protest, the occurrence of any such Event of Default shall also constitute a default under all other agreements between the Bank and the undersigned and under all other instruments and papers given the Bank by the undersigned.

Any and all deposits or other sums at any time credited by, or due to the undersigned from, the Bank or any of its banking or lending affiliates or any bank acting as a participant under any loan arrangement between the Bank and the undersigned, and any cash, securities, instruments, or other property of the undersigned in the possession of the Bank, or any of its banking or lending affiliates, or any bank acting as a participant under any loan arrangement between the Bank and the undersigned, whether for safekeeping, or otherwise, or in transit to or from the Bank or any of its banking or lending affiliates or any such participant, or in the possession of any third party acting on the Bank’s behalf (regardless of the reason the Bank had received same or whether the Bank has conditionally released the same) shall at all times constitute security for any and all Liabilities, and may be applied or set off against such Liabilities at any time whether or not other collateral is available to the Bank.

No delay or omission by the Bank in exercising or enforcing any of the Bank’s powers, rights, privileges, remedies, or discretions hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof on that occasion nor on any other occasion. No waiver of any default hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any other default hereunder, nor as a continuing waiver.

But for claims in which it is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Bank has acted with gross negligence and/or willful misconduct, the undersigned, and each endorser and guarantor of this Note, shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Bank harmless against any claim brought or threatened against the Bank by the undersigned, by any endorser or guarantor, or by any other person (as well as from attorneys’ reasonable fees and expenses in connection therewith) on account of the Bank’s relationship with the undersigned or any endorser or guarantor hereof (each of which may be defended, compromised, settled, or pursued by the Bank with counsel of the Bank’s selection, but at the expense of the undersigned and any endorser and/or guarantor).

The undersigned will pay on demand all attorneys’ reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Bank in the administration of all Liabilities of the undersigned to the Bank, including, without limitation, costs and expenses associated with travel on behalf of the

The undersigned will also pay on demand, all attorneys’ reasonable fees, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Bank’s attorneys and all costs incurred by the Bank, including, without limitation, costs and expenses associated with travel on behalf of the Bank, which costs and expenses are directly or indirectly related to the preservation, protection, collection or enforcement of any of the Bank’s rights against the undersigned or any such endorser or guarantor and against any collateral given the Bank to secure this Note or any other Liabilities of the undersigned or such endorser and guarantor to the Bank (whether or not suit is instituted by or against the Bank).

The undersigned, and each endorser and guarantor of this Note, respectively waives presentment, demand, notice, and protest, and also waives any delay on the part of the holder hereof. Each assents to any extension or other indulgence (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of collateral) permitted the undersigned or any endorser or guarantor by the Bank with respect to this Note and/or any collateral given to secure this Note or any extension or other indulgence, as described above, with respect to any other liability or any collateral given to secure any other liability of the undersigned or any endorser or guarantor to the Bank.

This Note shall be binding upon the undersigned and each endorser and guarantor hereof and upon their respective heirs, successors, assigns, and representatives, and shall inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors, endorsees, and assigns.

The liabilities of the undersigned and any endorser or guarantor of this Note are joint and several; provided, however, the release by the Bank of the undersigned or any one or more endorser or guarantor shall not release any other person obligated on account of this Note. Each reference in this Note to the undersigned, any endorser, and any guarantor, is to such person individually and also to any such persons jointly. No person obligated on account of this Note may seek contribution from any other person also obligated unless and until all liabilities, obligations and indebtedness to the Bank of the person from whom contribution is sought have been satisfied in full.

The undersigned makes the following waiver knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally, and understands that the Bank, in the establishment and maintenance of the Bank’s relationship with the Borrower contemplated by the within Note, is relying thereon. THE UNDERSIGNED AND THE BANK, TO THE EXTENT ENTITLED THERETO, EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE RIGHT OF THE BANK, THE UNDERSIGNED, OR OF ANY GUARANTOR OR ENDORSER OF THE UNDERSIGNED OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON LIABLE TO THE BANK ON ACCOUNT OF OR IN RESPECT TO THE LIABILITIES, TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY CASE OR CONTROVERSY IN WHICH THE BANK IS OR BECOMES A PARTY (WHETHER SUCH CASE OR CONTROVERSY IS INITIATED BY OR AGAINST THE BANK OR IN WHICH THE BANK IS JOINED AS A PARTY LITIGANT), WHICH CASE OR CONTROVERSY ARISES OUT OF, OR IS IN RESPECT TO, ANY RELATIONSHIP AMONGST OR BETWEEN THE UNDERSIGNED, ANY SUCH PERSON, AND THE BANK.
