Failure to pay on or before the Maturity Date shall constitute a default. For purposes of clarification, to the extent any part of the principal amount, fee and interest, if any, of the Loan is outstanding at the time Borrower receives the IS 46 COD Payment, the proceeds of such IS 46 COD Payment shall be used to repay the principal amount, fee and interest, if any, of the Loan.

Payment of this Note shall be (i) subordinate to amounts due under that certain Release, Accord And Satisfaction Agreement dated February 8, 2016, between Principal Solar, Inc. and Vis Solis, Inc. et al (ii) to the extent all or any part of the principal amount, fee and interest, if any, of the Loan is outstanding at the time of the maturity date of that certain Promissory Note dated February 25, 2016, between Principal Solar, Inc. and The Pearl M Thompson Trust dated March 24, 2004 (the “PMT Trust Note”), pari pasu to such PMT Trust Note and (iii) senior to all other unsecured debts of Borrower (past, current and future).

This Note shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.
