 Exhibit 10.2 
 REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE 
 (the “Note”) 
  

			
	$7,500,000.00	  	Dated: October     , 2009

  
  
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned borrowers, DEER VALLEY FINANCIAL CORP., a Florida corporation, DEER VALLEY CORPORATION, a Florida
corporation and DEER VALLEY HOMEBUILDERS, INC., an Alabama corporation, jointly and severally (collectively the “Borrower”) promise to pay to the order of FIFTH THIRD BANK, a Michigan banking corporation (the
“Lender”), at 201 E. Kennedy Blvd., Suite 1800, Tampa, Florida 33602, or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing, with payment due as provided herein and in the Revolving Credit Loan and Security Agreement
of even date herewith (the “Credit Agreement”), the principal sum not to exceed $7,500,000.00, or so much thereof as has been disbursed for advances hereunder. 
 The Interest Rate shall be a variable rate at 400 basis points (4.00%) above the One-Month “LIBOR-Index Rate”, and shall be adjusted every month on each Interest Rate Determination Date with all such
interest rate terms defined as set forth in “ADDENDUM A” attached hereto and made a part hereof. 
 Principal and
interest shall be due and payable as follows: 
 (a) To the extent accrued, interest only, as stated above, shall be payable monthly
commencing October 1, 2009, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter on the principal outstanding from time to time until the loan maturity date at which time the outstanding indebtedness, whether principal, accrued interest or
otherwise, shall be due and payable in full. 
 (b) The principal amount evidenced hereby may be borrowed (and to the extent any principal
amount advanced hereunder is repaid by Borrower, such sum may be borrowed again) until this Note is terminated. At no time, however, shall the principal balance outstanding hereunder exceed $7,500,000.00. 
 If any payment on this Note becomes due and payable on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of the State of Florida, the maturity
thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding business day and interest thereon shall be payable at contract rate of interest during such extension. 
 As provided in the Credit Agreement, the Note is to be utilized by Borrower on a revolving credit basis to provide display model financing for dealers. 







 This Loan facility matures two (2) years from the date hereof. If any letters of credit supported
by this Loan facility are redeemed, the amount so redeemed is due on demand in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the Events of Default specified in the Credit Agreement or in any other document or
instrument delivered in connection therewith and following notice and the expiration of all cure periods (if any), all amounts then remaining unpaid on this Note may be declared to be immediately due and payable. Advances under this Note shall be
requested by Borrower and evidenced as a debit to Borrower’s loan account. 
 Borrower may repay all or part of the principal balance
at any time without penalty. Such prepayment shall be accompanied by payment of any unpaid interest accrued to the time of such prepayment. All payments made hereunder shall at Lender’s option first be applied to late charges, then to accrued
interest, then to principal. Permitted partial prepayments shall not affect or vary the duty of Borrower to pay all obligations when due, and they shall not affect or impair the right of Lender to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, under
the security instruments securing this indebtedness, or under any other loan documents or guaranty executed in connection herewith. 
 In
the event that any payment of principal or interest is not made within ten (10) days after the date when due hereunder, it is hereby agreed that the Lender shall have the option of collecting five percent (5%) of the amount of each such
delinquent payment; provided, however, such late fee shall not apply to the lump sum payment of the principal on the Maturity Date or the lump sum payment of principal upon acceleration. Said late charge and/or interest shall be immediately due and
payable in full on demand by the Lender. 
 The “Default Interest Rate” shall be five percent (5%) per annum above the
contract interest rate set forth above, but not exceeding 18% per annum. Upon default, the Default Interest Rate shall commence upon written notice to Borrower. Upon default, the Default Interest Rate shall commence upon written notice to
Borrower. Upon a failure by Borrower to repay principal upon demand by Lender made not less than ten (10) days after the date due hereunder, Lender may declare the entire principal and interest then remaining unpaid to be immediately due and
payable without further notice or demand, and the entire unpaid principal balance shall bear interest at the “Default Interest Rate”. In addition to the rights described in this paragraph, Lender shall have the right to exercise all other
rights or remedies provided by law or at equity and shall specifically have the right to recover all damages resulting from such default including, without limitation, the right to recover the payment of all amounts owing to Lender. Exercise of any
of these options shall be without notice to Borrower, notice of such exercise being hereby expressly waived. 
 The terms and provisions
of this Note are to be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Florida and of the United States of America, and the rules and regulations promulgated under the authority thereof. It is the intent of this Note that

  


					
		 	2	 	









 
such laws shall be interpreted in such a manner that after default the maximum rate of interest charged under this Note not exceed the rate allowed to be contracted for by applicable law as
changed from time to time which is applicable to this Note (hereinafter called the “Maximum Rate”). 
 In no event shall Lender
have the right to charge or collect, nor shall Borrower be required or obligated to pay, interest or payments in the nature of interest, which would result in interest being charged or collected at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate. In the event
that any payment which is interest or in the nature of interest is made by Borrower or received by Lender which would result in the rate of interest being charged or collected by the Lender being in excess of the Maximum Rate, then the portion of
any such payment which causes the rate of interest being charged or collected by Lender exceed the Maximum Rate (hereinafter called the “excess sum”) shall be credited as a payment of principal. If Borrower notifies Lender in writing that
Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to Borrower, such excess sum shall be returned to Borrower. In the event that any such overcharge is discovered after this Note has been paid in full, then the amount of such excess sum shall be
returned to Borrower together with interest thereon from the date such excess sum was paid or collected at the same rate as was due Lender during such period under the terms of this Note. All excess sums credited to principal shall be credited as of
the date paid to Lender. 
 Time is of the essence hereunder. In the event that this Note is collected by law or through attorneys at law,
or under advice therefrom, Borrower and any other person liable for payment hereof, to the extent of such liability, hereby agree to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (including charges for paralegals
and others working under the direction or supervision of Lender’s attorneys) and all sales or use taxes thereon, whether or not suit is brought, and whether incurred in connection with collection, trial, appeal, bankruptcy or other
creditor’s proceedings or otherwise. 
 Borrower authorizes Lender, from time to time, to debit any account that Borrower may have
with Lender in the name of Borrower, for any payment of principal or interest past due hereunder for the amount of such payment of principal or interest. Exercise of this right shall be optional with Lender and the provisions of this paragraph shall
not be construed as releasing Borrower from the obligation to make payments of principal or interest according to the terms hereof. Borrower shall have no right of setoff against the Lender under this Note or any instrument securing this Note.

 The remedies of Lender as provided herein shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly, successively, or together,
at the sole discretion of Lender. No act of omission or commission of Lender, including specifically any failure to exercise any right, remedy or recourse, shall be deemed to be a waiver or release of the same, such waiver or release to be effected
only through a written document executed by Lender and then only to the extent specifically recited therein. A waiver or release with reference to any one event shall not be construed as continuing, as a bar to, or as a waiver of release of, any
subsequent right, remedy or recourse as to a subsequent event.

 Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby: (a) expressly waives any
presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of nonpayment or protest, all other forms of notice whatsoever, and diligence in collection; (b) agrees that Lender, in order to enforce payment of this Note against them
shall not be required first to institute any suit or to exhaust any of its remedies against any Borrower or any other person or party or to attempt to realize on the collateral for this Note. 
 BORROWER AND ANY OTHER PERSON LIABLE FOR PAYMENT HEREOF, BY EXECUTING THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT CREATING SUCH LIABILITY, WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR TORT, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS NOTE. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER’S EXTENDING CREDIT TO BORROWER AND NO WAIVER OR LIMITATION OF
LENDER’S RIGHTS HEREUNDER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS IN WRITING AND MANUALLY SIGNED ON LENDER’S BEHALF. 
 Borrower acknowledges
that the above paragraph has been expressly bargained for by Lender as part of the loan evidenced hereby and that, but for Borrower’s agreement and the agreement of any other person liable for payment hereof, Lender would not have extended the
loan for the term and with the interest rate provided herein. 
 If more than one party shall execute this Note, the term
“Borrower”, as used herein, shall mean all parties signing this Note and each of them, who shall be jointly and severally obligated hereunder. In this Note, whenever the context so requires, the neuter gender includes the feminine and/or
masculine, as the case may be, and the singular number includes the plural. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has caused this Note to be
executed in its name on the day and year first above written. 
 THE UNDERSIGNED ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED HEREBY IS FOR
COMMERCIAL PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.

two (2) Business Days prior to the Interest Rate Determination Date; provided, that if no such offered rate appears on such page, the rate used for such Interest Period will be the per annum rate of interest determined by the Bank to be
the rate at which U.S. dollar deposits for the Interest Period, are offered to the Bank in the London Inter-Bank Market as of 11:00 A.M. (London, England time), on the day which is two (2) Business Days prior to the Interest Rate Determination

Borrower and thereafter will have no obligation to make, fund or maintain LIBOR based loans. Upon such Determination Date the Note will be converted to a variable rate loan based upon the Prime Rate. Thereafter the interest rate on the Note shall
