    CREDIT
AGREEMENT, dated as of December 7, 2009 (this "Agreement"),
by and between BROOKRIDGE
FUNDING SERVICES, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (the
"Borrower")
and MGM FUNDING, LLC, a
North Carolina limited liability company (the "Lender").

     

     

    AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE
LOANS

     

    Loans

     

    Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may request that the
Lender to make loans (each a "Loan" and,
collectively, the "Loans") to
the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the
Maximum Amount and the Borrowing Base.  During the Availability
Period, the Borrower may request Loans, prepay Loans in whole or in part in
accordance with Section 1.05(a) and request additional Loans, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof.  The aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity
Date.  Nothing herein shall constitute or be construed as an agreement
or commitment by Lender to make any Loans or otherwise extend credit pursuant to
this Agreement, the making of which Loans or other extensions of credit shall be
in the sole and absolute discretion of the Lender.

     

    Note

     

    The Loans shall be evidenced by a
promissory note of the Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit A, with
appropriate insertions therein as to date and principal amount (as indorsed or
modified from time to time, including all replacements thereof and substitutions
therefor, the "Note"), payable to the order of the
Lender and representing the obligation of the Borrower to pay the aggregate
outstanding principal balance of the Loans, in each case with interest thereon
as prescribed in Section 2.01.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    The
Lender is hereby authorized to record (i) the date and amount of each Loan made
by the Lender and (ii) the date and amount of each payment and prepayment of
principal of any Loans on the schedule (and any continuations thereof) annexed
to and constituting a part of the Note.  No failure so to record or
any error in so recording shall affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay
the Loans, with interest thereon, as herein provided.

     

    Procedure for
Borrowing

     

    The
Borrower may request a Loan on any Business Day during the Availability Period,
provided that the Borrower shall notify the Lender in writing, which may be by
facsimile not later than (i) 1:100 a.m. on the same Business Day, in the case of
a request for a Loan in an a principal  amount of $500,000 or less and
(ii) 1:00 p.m. two Business Days prior to the date of the requested Loan, in the
case of a request for a Loan in an a principal  in excess of $500,000
specifying (A) the aggregate principal amount of Loans to be borrowed and (B)
the requested Borrowing Date.  Such notice shall be irrevocable and
confirmed immediately by delivery to the Lender of a written Borrowing
Request.

     

    Subject
to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as determined
by the Lender, the Lender shall disburse the proceeds of each Loan by wire
transfer to a bank account of the Borrower in the United States in accordance
with wire transfer instructions provided by the Borrower to the
Lender.

     

    Termination, Reduction or
Increase of Maximum
Amount

     

    The
Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' prior written
notice to the Lender, at any time, to terminate this Agreement or from time to
time to permanently reduce the Maximum Amount, provided, however, that any such
reduction shall be in the amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000
in excess thereof.  Simultaneously with each reduction of the Maximum
Amount under this Section, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans as required by
Section 1.05(b).

     

    The
Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' prior written
notice to the Lender, at any time, to request that the Lender increase the
Maximum Amount by an amount of up to $1,000,000, provided, however, that the
determination as to whether to grant such request for an increase shall be made
by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Payments of the
Loans

     

    Voluntary
Prepayments. The Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Loans without
premium or penalty in full at any time or in part from time to time by notifying
the Lender in writing not later than the date of such prepayment specifying the
principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid and the date of
prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and the amount
specified in each such notice shall be due and payable on the date
specified.

     

    Mandatory Prepayments of
Loans.  (i) Simultaneously with each reduction of the Maximum
Amount under Section 1.04, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding Loans by
the amount, if any, by which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Loans
exceeds the Maximum Amount  as so reduced.

     

    (ii) If,
at any time, the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans
exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the
outstanding Loans in an amount equal to such excess.

     

    In General.
Simultaneously with each prepayment of the Loans, the Borrower shall prepay all
accrued interest on the amount prepaid through the date of
prepayment.

     

    Treatment and Application of
Payments

     

    Each
payment, including each prepayment, of principal and interest on the Loans shall
be made by the Borrower prior to 12:00 noon on the date such payment is due, at
the Lender's office set forth in Section 9.02, in lawful money of the United
States, in funds immediately available to the Lender and without set-off or
counterclaim.  The failure of the Borrower to make any such payment by
such time shall not constitute a Default, provided that such payment is made on
such due date, but any such payment made after 12:00 noon on such due date shall
be deemed to have been made prior to12:00 noon on the next Business Day for the
purpose of calculating interest.

     

    If
any payment shall be due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the
due date thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day and interest shall
be payable at the applicable rate specified herein during such extension, provided, however, that if
such next Business Day is after the Maturity Date, any such payment shall be due
on the immediately preceding Business Day.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Use of
Proceeds

     

    The
Borrower agrees that the proceeds of the Loans shall be used solely, directly or
indirectly, (i) to finance a portion of the purchase price payable in connection
with the Acquisition, (ii) to fund accounts receivable and purchase orders in
the operation of its financing business and (iii) to pay the out-of-pocket fees
and expenses incurred by the Borrower in connection with the Loan
Documents.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, the Borrower agrees that no part of the proceeds of the Loans
will be used, directly or indirectly, for a purpose which violates any law, rule
or regulation of any Governmental Authority, including, without limitation, the
provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, as amended.

     

    Guarantee

     

    Subject
to the limitations therein, all obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be
jointly and severally guaranteed by John A. McNiff III and Michael P. Hilton
(the "Guarantors"),
pursuant to the terms of a Guarantee in the form of Exhibit B (as the same may
be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Guarantee").

     

    Security
Agreement

     

    All
obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be secured pursuant to the terms of
a Security Agreement in the form of Exhibit C (as the same may be amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security
Agreement").  The Guarantee shall be unsecured.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    INTEREST, FEES, YIELD
PROTECTIONS, ETC.

     

    Interest Rate and Payment
Dates

     

    Prior to Maturity.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.01(b), prior to maturity, the
outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to 20.00%.

     

    Default Rate. If any
payment of principal and/or interest is not paid when due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) the unpaid principal balance of the
Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum (whether before or after the entry
of a judgment thereon) equal to 4% above the rate which would otherwise be
applicable under Section 2.01(a) and any overdue interest or other amount
payable under the Loan Documents shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal
to 24.00%.  All such interest shall be payable on demand.

     

    In General. Interest
on all amounts due and payable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.  Except as
otherwise provided in Section 2.01(b), interest shall be payable monthly in
arrears on the first day of each month (commencing with the first such date to
occur after the making of the first Loan hereunder), and, as provided in Section
1.05(c), upon each prepayment of the Loans.

     

    Highest Lawful Rate.
At no time shall the interest rate payable on the Loans, together with the Fees
and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents to the Lender, to the
extent the same are construed to constitute interest, exceed the maximum rate of
interest that at any time may be contracted for, taken, charged or received by
the Lender under the Loan Documents under applicable law.  If for any
period during the term of this Agreement, any amount paid to the Lender under
the Loan Documents, to the extent the same shall (but for the provisions of this
Section) constitute or be deemed to constitute interest, would exceed the
maximum amount of interest permitted during such period, then such excess amount
shall be applied or shall be deemed to have been applied as a prepayment of the
Loans in such order as the Lender shall determine.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Taxes; Net
Payments

     

    All
payments made by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made free and
clear of, and without reduction for or on account of, any Taxes required by law
to be withheld from any amounts payable under the Loan Documents.  In
the event that the Borrower is prohibited by law from making payments under the
Loan Documents free of deductions or withholdings, the Borrower shall pay such
additional amounts to the Lender as may be necessary in order that the actual
amounts received by the Lender in respect of interest and any other amounts
payable under the Loan Documents after such deduction or withholding (and after
payment of any additional taxes or other charges due as a consequence of the
payment of such additional amounts) shall equal the amount which would have been
received if such deduction or withholding were not required.

     

    The
Borrower agrees to pay any current or future stamp or documentary Taxes and any
other excise or property Taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any
payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
any amendment of, supplement to or modification of, or any waiver or consent
under or in respect of, the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to, the
Loan Documents.

     

    Lender's
Records

     

    The
Lender's records with respect to the Loans, the interest rates applicable
thereto, each payment and prepayment by the Borrower of principal and interest
on the Loans and fees, expenses and any other amounts due and payable in
connection with this Agreement shall be presumed correct absent manifest
error.

     

     

    REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES

     

    In order
to induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, the
Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to the
Lender:

     

    Existence and Power;
Subsidiaries

     

    The
Borrower is a duly formed and validly existing limited liability company, in
good standing under the laws of the State of North Carolina, has all requisite
power and authority to own its Property and to carry on its business as now
conducted, and is in good standing and authorized to do business in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted therein or the
Property owned by it therein makes such qualification necessary, except where
such failure to qualify could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Borrower.  As of the Effective Date, the
Borrower has no Subsidiaries.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Authority and
Execution

     

    The
Borrower has full legal power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and
perform the terms of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, all of which
have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary corporate or other
applicable action and are in full compliance with its Organizational
Documents.  The Borrower has duly executed and delivered the Loan
Documents to which it is a party.

     

    Binding
Agreement

     

    The Loan
Documents (other than the Note) constitute, and the Note, when issued and
delivered pursuant hereto for value received, will constitute, the valid and
legally binding obligations of each Credit Party, in each case, to the extent it
is a party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally.

     

    Absence of Defaults; No
Conflicting Agreements

     

    Neither
the Borrower, nor any other Credit Party, is in default under any mortgage,
indenture, contract or agreement to which it is a party or by which it or any of
its Property is bound.  The execution, delivery and carrying out of
the terms of the Loan Documents will not (i)
constitute a default under any such mortgage, indenture, contract or agreement,
or result in the creation or imposition of, or obligation to create, any Lien
upon any Property of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, except for Liens
created pursuant to the Loan Documents, (ii) result in a breach of or require
the mandatory repayment of or other acceleration of payment under or pursuant to
the terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or agreement or (iii) result
in the violation of any statute, regulation, rule and order of any Governmental
Authority which is applicable to it.

     

    Consents

     

    No
consent, authorization or approval of, filing with, notice to, or exemption by,
any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to authorize, or is
required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan
Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, or is required as a
condition to the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents, except for
the filing of financing statements to perfect the Liens granted pursuant to the
Security Agreement.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Litigation

     

    There are
no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any
Governmental Authority pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened
against any Credit Party, maintained by any Credit Party or which may affect the
Property of any Credit Party, which could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on any Credit Party, which call into question the
validity or enforceability of, or otherwise seek to invalidate, any Loan
Document, or might, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely
affect any of the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document.

     

    Compliance with Applicable
Laws

     

    Neither
the Borrower, nor any other Credit Party, is in default with respect to any
judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree or decision of any Governmental
Authority.  The Borrower, and each other Credit Party, is in
compliance in all material respects with all statutes, regulations, rules and
orders applicable to it, including, without limitation, Environmental
Laws.

     

    Taxes

     

    The
Borrower has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns required to be filed
and has paid, or has made adequate provision for the payment of, all taxes shown
to be due and payable on said returns or in any assessments made against it
(except such thereof as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate
proceedings diligently conducted, and for which adequate reserves have been set
aside in accordance with GAAP), and no tax Liens have been filed and no claims
are being asserted with respect to such taxes.

     

    Governmental
Regulations

     

    Neither
the Borrower, nor any Person controlled by, controlling, or under common control
with, the Borrower, is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act, as
amended, or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or is subject to any
statute or regulation which prohibits or restricts the incurrence of
Indebtedness, including, without limitation, statutes or regulations relative to
common or contract carriers or to the sale of electricity, gas, steam, water,
telephone, telegraph or other public utility services.

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Federal Reserve Regulations;
Use of Loan Proceeds

     

    The
Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in
the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any
Margin Stock.  No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used,
directly or indirectly, for a purpose that violates any law, rule or regulation
of any Governmental Authority, including, without limitation, the provisions of
Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
as amended.  After giving effect to the making of the Loans, Margin
Stock will constitute less than 25% of the aggregate assets (as determined by
any reasonable method) of the Borrower.

    Assignments and
Participations

     

    This
Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a
party shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the
Lender, all future holders of the Note and their respective successors and
assigns, provided, however, that the Borrower may neither delegate its
liabilities and obligations, nor assign its rights and benefits, under any Loan
Document to any Person.  The Lender shall have the right at any time,
upon written notice to the Borrower, to sell, assign, transfer or negotiate, or
grant participations in, all or any part of the Lender's rights with respect to
the Loans to one or more banks, insurance companies, financial institutions,
pension funds or mutual funds, provided, however, the
Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay any participant hereunder
any sum pursuant to Section 2.02 in excess of the sum which the Borrower would
have been obligated to pay to the Lender in respect of such interest had the
Lender not sold such participation.   The Lender may at any time
assign all or any part of its rights under the Loan Documents to a Federal
Reserve Lender, without notice to the Borrower, provided that any such
assignment shall not release the Lender from its obligations
thereunder.

     

    No Waiver; Cumulative
Remedies

     

    No
failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender, any
right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy,
power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges under the Loan
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and
privileges provided by law.

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              Survival of
      Representations and Warranties and Certain
    Obligations

            


    

     

    All
representations and warranties made under the Loan Documents and in any
document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant thereto or in connection
therewith shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents.

     

    The
obligations of the Borrower under Sections 2.03 9.06 and 9.07 shall survive the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable under the Loan
Documents.  The Lender's determination of any amount or amounts owed
by the Borrower to it under any such Section shall be presumed correct absent
manifest error.

     

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Expenses

     

    The
Borrower agrees, promptly upon presentation of a statement or invoice therefor,
and whether or not any Loans are made, (i) to pay or reimburse the Lender for
all its out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
the development, preparation and execution of, the Loan Documents and any
amendment, supplement or modification thereto (whether or not executed or
effective), any documents prepared in connection therewith and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, the
reasonable fees and disbursements of the Lender's counsel, (ii) to pay or
reimburse the Lender for all of its costs and expenses, including, without
limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred in connection
with (A) any Default or Event of Default and any enforcement or collection
proceedings resulting therefrom or in connection with the negotiation of any
restructuring or "work-out" (whether consummated or not) of the obligations of
the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents and (B) the enforcement of this
Section, and (iii) to pay, indemnify and hold the Lender and each of its
managers, officers, directors and employees harmless from and against any and
all other liabilities, obligations, claims, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and
disbursements) with respect to the enforcement and performance of the Loan
Documents, the use of the proceeds of the Loans and the enforcement and
performance of the provisions of any subordination agreement involving the
Lender, and, if and to the extent that the foregoing indemnity may be
unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum payment
not prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, that the Borrower shall
have no obligation to pay any of the liabilities set forth in this Section to
the Lender arising from the finally adjudicated gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Lender or claims between one indemnified party and another
indemnified party.

     

    Indemnity

     

    The
Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender and its Affiliates,
managers, directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each an "Indemnified
Person") from and against any loss, cost, liability, damage or expense
(including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel of such Indemnified
Person, including all local counsel hired by any such counsel) incurred by such
Indemnified Person in investigating, preparing for, defending against, or
providing evidence, producing documents or taking any other action in respect
of, any commenced or threatened litigation, administrative proceeding or
investigation under any federal securities law or any other statute of any
jurisdiction, or any regulation, or at common law or otherwise, which is alleged
to arise out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact by any Credit Party in any document or schedule
executed or filed with any Governmental Authority by or on behalf of such Credit
Party; (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state any material fact required
to be stated in such document or schedule, or necessary to make the statements
made therein, in light of the circumstances under which made, not misleading;
(iii) any acts, practices or omissions or alleged acts, practices or omissions
of the Borrower or its agents relating to the use of the proceeds of the Loans,
or in violation of any federal securities law or of any other statute,
regulation or other law of any jurisdiction applicable thereto; or (iv) any
acquisition or proposed acquisition by any Credit Party of all or a portion of
the stock, or all or a portion of the assets, of any Person whether such
Indemnified Person is a party thereto.  The indemnity set forth herein
shall be in addition to any other obligations or liabilities of the Borrower to
each Indemnified Person under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or at
common law or otherwise, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and the payment of all indebtedness of the Borrower
under the Loan Documents, provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation
under this Section to an Indemnified Person with respect to any of the foregoing
to the extent determined in a final judgment of a court having jurisdiction to
have resulted primarily out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnified Person.

     

    Limitation of
Liability

     

    No claim
may be made by the Borrower or any other Person against the Lender or any
managers, directors, officers, employees or agents of the Lender for any
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for
breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to
the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document, or any act, omission or
event occurring in connection therewith, and the Borrower hereby waives,
releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or
not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its
favor.

     

    Counterparts

     

    Each Loan
Document (other than the Note) may be executed by one or more of the parties
thereto on any number of separate counterparts and all of said counterparts
taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of any Loan
Document to produce or account for more than one counterpart signed by the party
to be charged.  A counterpart of any Loan Document, and of any an
amendment, modification, consent or waiver to or of any Loan Document,
transmitted by telecopy shall be deemed to be an originally executed
counterpart.  A set of the copies of the Loan Documents signed by all
the parties thereto shall be deposited with the Borrower and the
Lender.  Any party to a Loan Document may rely upon the signatures of
any other party thereto which are transmitted by telecopy or other electronic
means to the same extent as if originally signed.

     

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

     

    Set-off

     

    In
addition to any rights and remedies of the Lender provided by law, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the obligations owing
in connection with the Loan Documents, or at any time upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or 7.01(b),
the Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such
notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent not prohibited by
applicable law, to set-off and apply against any indebtedness, whether matured
or unmatured, of the Borrower to the Lender, any amount owing from the Lender to
the Borrower, at, or at any time after, the happening of any of the
above-mentioned events.  To the extent not prohibited by applicable
law, the aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by the Lender against the
Borrower or against any trustee in bankruptcy, custodian, debtor in possession,
assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or
attachment creditor of the Borrower or against anyone else claiming through or
against the Borrower or such trustee in bankruptcy, custodian, debtor in
possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution,
judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of
set-off shall not have been exercised by the Lender prior to the making, filing
or issuance, or service upon the Lender of, or of notice of, any such petition,
assignment for the benefit of creditors, appointment or application for the
appointment of a receiver, or issuance of execution, subpoena, order or
warrant.  The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any
such set-off and application made by the Lender, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application.

     

    Construction

     

    The
Borrower represents that it has been represented by counsel in connection with
the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and that the
principle that agreements are to be construed against the party drafting the
same shall be inapplicable.

     

    Governing
Law

     

    The Loan
Documents and the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder shall be
governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the internal laws
of the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflicts or choice-of-law
principles thereof.

     

    Headings
Descriptive

     

    Section
headings have been inserted in the Loan Documents for convenience only and shall
not be construed to be a part thereof.

     

    Severability

     

    Every
provision of the Loan Documents is intended to be severable, and if any term or
provision thereof shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof shall
not be affected or impaired thereby, and any invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or
enforceability of any such term or provision in any other
jurisdiction.

     

    Integration

     

    All
exhibits to a Loan Document shall be deemed to be a part thereof.  The
Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the
Borrower and the Lender with respect to the subject matter thereof and supersede
all prior agreements and understandings between the Borrower and the Lender with
respect to the subject matter thereof.

     

    Consent to
Jurisdiction

     

    Each of
the Borrower and the Lender hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of
any North Carolina State or Federal court sitting in Mecklenburg County, North
Carolina over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the
Loan Documents.  Each of the Borrower and the Lender hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted or not prohibited by law,
any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of
any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that
any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in
an inconvenient forum.  Each of the Borrower and the Lender hereby
agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in
such a court, after all appropriate appeals, shall be conclusive and binding
upon it.

     

    Service of
Process

     

    Each of
the Borrower and the Lender hereby irrevocably consents to the service of
process in any suit, action or proceeding by sending the same by first class
mail, return receipt requested or by overnight courier service, to the address
of such party set forth in Section 9.02.  Each of the Borrower and the
Lender hereby agrees that any such service (i) shall be deemed in every respect
effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action, or proceeding,
and (ii) shall to the fullest extent enforceable by law, be taken and held to be
valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it.

     

    No Limitation on Service or
Suit

     

    Nothing
in the Loan Documents or any modification, waiver, consent or amendment thereto
shall affect the right of the Lender to serve process in any manner permitted by
law or limit the right of the Lender to bring proceedings against the Borrower
in the courts of any jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which the Borrower may be
served.

     

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    WAIVER OF TRIAL BY
JURY

     

    EACH OF
THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREIN.  FURTHER, THE BORROWER HEREBY
CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE LENDER, OR COUNSEL TO THE
LENDER, HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE LENDER WOULD NOT, IN
THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL
PROVISION.  THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LENDER HAS BEEN INDUCED
TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, INTER ALIA, THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS SECTION.

     

    USA Patriot Act

    In the
event the Lender is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title
III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Patriot
Act"), the Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the
requirements of the Patriot Act, the Lender is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the
name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow it to
