Borrower: Manufactured Housing Properties, Inc.   Lender: Aquesta Bank   136
Main Street     SBA   Pineville, NC 28134-0000     P.O. Box 700        
Cornelius, NC 28031         (704) 439-4343

 

 

 

Principal Amount: $139,300.00 Interest Rate: 1.000% Date of Note: May 1, 2020

 

PROMISE TO PAY. Manufactured Housing Properties, Inc. (“Borrower”) promises to
pay to Aquesta Bank (“Lender”), or order, in lawful money of the United States
of America, the principal amount of One Hundred Thirty-nine Thousand Three
Hundred & 00/100 Dollars ($139,300.00), together with interest on the unpaid
principal balance from May 1, 2020, calculated as described in the “INTEREST
CALCULATION METHOD” paragraph using an interest rate of 1.000% per annum based
on a year of 360 days, until paid in full. The interest rate may change under
the terms and conditions of the “INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT” section.

 

PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in full immediately upon Lender’s demand.
If no demand is made, Borrower will pay this loan in 17 payments of $7,839.26
each payment and an irregular last payment estimated at $7,839.43. Borrower’s
first payment is due December 1, 2020, and all subsequent payments are due on
the same day of each month after that. Borrower’s final payment will be due on
May 1, 2022, and will be for all principal and all accrued interest not yet
paid. Payments include principal and interest. Unless otherwise agreed or
required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid
interest; then to principal; then to any escrow or reserve account payments as
required under any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security instrument or
security agreement securing this Note; and then to any late charges.

 

INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note is computed on a 30/360
simple interest basis; that is, with the exception of odd days before the first
full payment cycle, monthly interest is calculated by applying the ratio of the
interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal
balance, multiplied by a month of 30 days. Interest for the odd days before the
first full month is calculated on the basis of the actual days and a 360-day
year. All interest payable under this Note is computed using this method.

 

RECEIPT OF PAYMENTS. All payments must be made in U.S. dollars and must be
received by Lender consistent with the following payment instructions: Payments
can be made at any branch. See www.aquestabank.com for locations and hours.
Lender may modify these payment instructions by providing updated payment
instructions to Borrower in writing. If a payment is made consistent with
Lender’s payment instructions but received after 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
on a business day, Lender will credit Borrower’s payment on the next business
day.

 

PREPAYMENT. 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
under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal
balance due and may result in Borrower’s making fewer payments. 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: Aquesta Bank, Attn: Loan
Operations, P.O. Box 700 Cornelius, NC 28031.

 

LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 15 days or more late, Borrower will be charged
4.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment. This late
charge shall be paid to Lender by Borrower to compensate Lender for Lender’s
extra costs and expenses caused by the late payment.

 

INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final
maturity, the total sum due under this Note will continue to accrue interest at
the interest rate under this Note. If judgment is entered in connection with
this Note, interest will continue to accrue after the date of judgment at the
rate in effect at the time judgment is entered.

 

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.

 

Default in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under any
loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or
any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may
materially affect any of Borrower’s property or Borrower’s ability to repay this
Note or perform Borrower’s obligations under this Note or any of the related
documents.

 

False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to
Lender by Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf under this Note or the related
documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the
time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.

 

Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower’s existence as a going
business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for any part
of Borrower’s property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of
creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or
insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

 

Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture
proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any
other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any governmental agency against
any collateral securing the loan. This includes a garnishment of any of
Borrower’s accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this
Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as
to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of
the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a
surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined
by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the
dispute.

 

Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to
any guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party of any of the
indebtedness or any guarantor, endorser, surety, or accommodation party dies or
becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under,
any guaranty of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

more of the common stock of Borrower.

condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of this
Note is impaired.

 

Insecurity. Lender in good faith believes itself insecure.

 

LENDER’S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance under this Note and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, and
then Borrower will pay that amount.

 

ATTORNEYS’ FEES; EXPENSES. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help collect
this Note if Borrower does not pay. Borrower will pay Lender that amount. This
includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender’s reasonable
attorneys’ fees and Lender’s legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses for bankruptcy proceedings
(including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), and
appeals. If not prohibited by applicable law, Borrower also will pay any court
costs, in addition to all other sums provided by law.

 

JURY WAIVER. Lender and Borrower hereby waive the right to any jury trial in any
action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by either Lender or Borrower against
the other.

 

GOVERNING LAW. This Note will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender
and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of North
Carolina without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. This Note has been
accepted by Lender in the State of North Carolina.

 

CHOICE OF VENUE. If there is a lawsuit, Borrower agrees upon Lender’s request to
submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Mecklenburg County County, State of
North Carolina.

 

DISHONORED ITEM FEE. Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $7.00 if Borrower
makes a payment on Borrower’s loan and the check or preauthorized charge with
which Borrower pays is later dishonored.

 

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Borrower’s accounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Borrower may open in
the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any
trust accounts for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes
Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums
owing on the debt against any and all such accounts, and, at Lender’s option, to
administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to protect Lender’s
charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

COLLATERAL. This loan is unsecured.

 

ARBITRATION. Borrower and Lender agree that all disputes, claims and
controversies between them whether individual, joint, or class in nature,
arising from this Note or otherwise, including without limitation contract and
tort disputes, shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Rules of the American
Arbitration Association in effect at the time the claim is filed, upon request
of either party. No act to take or dispose of any collateral securing this Note
shall constitute a waiver of this arbitration agreement or be prohibited by this
arbitration agreement. This includes, without limitation, obtaining injunctive
relief or a temporary restraining order; invoking a power of sale under any deed
of trust or mortgage; obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a
receiver; or exercising any rights relating to personal property, including
taking or disposing of such property with or without judicial process pursuant
to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Any disputes, claims, or
controversies concerning the lawfulness or reasonableness of any act, or
exercise of any right, concerning any collateral securing this Note, including
any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise modify any agreement relating to the
collateral securing this Note, shall also be arbitrated, provided however that
no arbitrator shall have the right or the power to enjoin or restrain any act of
any party. Judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in
any court having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Note shall preclude any party
from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The
statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar doctrines which
would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party shall be
applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an arbitration
proceeding shall be deemed the commencement of an action for these purposes. The
Federal Arbitration Act shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and
enforcement of this arbitration provision.

 

PAYROLL TAX DOCUMENTATION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. I acknowledge that the lender will
confirm the eligible loan amount using tax documents I have submitted. I affirm
that these tax documents are identical to those submitted to the Internal
Revenue Service. I also understand, acknowledge, and agree that the Lender can
share the tax information with SBA’s authorized representatives, including
authorized representatives of the SBA Office of Inspector General, for the
purpose of compliance with SBA Loan Program Requirements and all SBA reviews.

 

DEBT FOREGIVENESS PROVISION. The Principal Amount under the Paycheck Protection
Program (PPP) will be forgiven as long as:

 

The loan proceeds are used to cover payroll costs, and most mortgage interest,
rent, and utility costs over the 8-week period after the loan is made; and
employee and compensation levels are maintained.

 

The Borrower will owe money when the loan is due if the Borrower uses the loan
proceeds for anything other than payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and
utility payments over the 8-week period after getting the loan. It is
anticipated that not more than 25% of the forgiven amount may be for
non-pay-roll costs.

 

Borrower will also owe money if they do not maintain their staff and payroll.

 

Number of Staff: Borrower’s loan forgiveness will be reduced if Borrower
decreases their full-time employee head count.

 

Level of Payroll: Borrower’s loan forgiveness will be reduced if Borrower
decreases salaries and wages by more than 25% for any employee that made less
than $100,000 annualized in 2019.

 

Re-Hiring: Borrower has until June 30, 2020 to restore their full-time
employment and salary levels for any changes made between February 15, 2020 and
April 26, 2020.

What happens if PPP loan funds are misused?

 

If you use PPP funds for unauthorized purposes, SBA will direct you to repay
those amounts. If you knowingly use the funds for unauthorized purposes, you
will be subject to additional liability such as charges for fraud. If one of
your shareholders, members, or partners uses PPP funds for unauthorized
purposes, SBA will have recourse against the shareholder, member, or partner for
the unauthorized use.

 

REQUESTING DEBT FOREGIVENESS PROVISION. Borrower will need to submit a written
request to Lender along with supporting documentation that verify the number of
full-time equivalent employees and pay rates, as well as the payments made on
eligible mortgage, lease, and utility obligations.

 

Borrower must certify that the documents are true and that Borrower used the
forgiveness amount to keep employees and make eligible mortgage, interest, rent
and utility payments.

 

Lender will have sixty (60) days to make a decision on debt forgiveness.

 

In the event Borrower’s debt is not entirely forgiven, the Lender will in its
sole and absolute discretion, upon written notice from Borrower, re-amortize the
debt over any remaining amortization period.
