WHEREAS, GLOG has distributed its assets to the Borrowers and the Borrowers have agreed to become jointly and severally liable for the unpaid balance of the note evidencing the GLOG Loan in the face principal amount of $3,663,902.57; and


 


WHEREAS, subject to the terms, provisions and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Bank is willing to release GLOG from liability under the GLOG Loan and to modify, amend, and rearrange the unpaid balance of the note evidencing the GLOG Loan such that the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable on such note in the principal amount of $3,663,902.57 until the existing final maturity date of March 15, 2014;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties agree to amend the Existing Loan Agreement as follows:


 


1.           Definition.  Any capitalized term used herein (including in the recitals hereto) but not otherwise defined shall have the meaning given to such term in the Existing Loan Agreement.


 


2.           GLOG Loan.  The existing GLOG Loan issued by the Bank to GLOG, as borrower, is hereby modified, rearranged, and amended such that the GLOG Loan in the principal amount of $3,663,902.57 until the existing maturity date of March 15, 2014 shall be in favor of the Borrowers who shall be jointly and severally liable under the GLOG Loan, and GLOG shall be released from liability thereunder.  All of the Indebtedness created pursuant thereto shall be evidenced by that certain replacement Promissory Note (Term Note # 60066) dated as of even date herewith from the
Borrowers payable to the order of the Bank in the face principal amount of $3,663,902.57 (the "Restated Note").  The GLOG Loan shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Restated Note.  All references in the Existing Loan Agreement to the GLOG Note previously issued by GLOG to the order of the Bank shall hereafter refer to the Restated Note issued by Borrowers to the order of the Bank.




  





  











  






3.           Interest Rate.  All amounts outstanding on the Restated Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate (as defined in the Restated Note), but in no event shall be less than the then applicable Index Floor Rate or more than the maximum rate allowed by law.


 


4.           Pledge Agreement.  Effective as of even date with this 2011 Amendment #3, GLOG is distributing its 50,000 shares of $100 stated value Greystone Series 2003 Preferred Stock (the "Stock") to the Borrowers.  The Stock is currently pledged to the Bank as security for the GLOG Note pursuant to a certain Pledge and Security Agreement from GLOG dated as of March 4, 2005 (the "Existing Pledge Agreement").  The Borrowers shall execute an Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement in form, scope and substance acceptable to the Bank (the "Restated Pledge") in
replacement of the Existing Pledge Agreement, pledging their interest in the Stock to the Bank.


 


5.           Guaranty.  Effective upon issuance of the Restated Note, Borrowers and Guarantors shall be the same.  Therefore, the 5.00 MM Guaranty shall become null and void and Guarantors shall be primarily liable on the Restated Note.


 


6.           Ratification. The remaining terms, provisions and conditions set forth in the Existing Loan Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for all purposes and are incorporated herein by reference. Each of the Loan Parties and GLOG restates, confirms, adopts and ratifies the warranties, covenants and representations set forth therein and further represents to the Bank that, as of the date hereof, no Default or Event of Default exists under the Existing Loan Agreement, as amended by this 2011 Amendment #3 (collectively, the "Loan Agreement").
