     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MARINEMAX, INC., a Delaware corporation, MARINEMAX EAST, INC., a Delaware
corporation, MARINEMAX SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation, MARINEMAX NORTHEAST, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, BOATING GEAR CENTER, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, US
LIQUIDATORS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and NEWCOAST FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (each a “Borrower” and collectively the “Borrowers”)
promise, jointly and severally, to pay to the order of CGI FINANCE, INC., a Delaware corporation
(“Lender”), from time to time as set forth herein, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
the Advances to Borrowers made by the Lender, together with interest on the principal balance
outstanding from time to time at the rate or rates hereafter specified, and all other sums which
may be owing to the Lender by Borrowers pursuant to this Floor Plan Credit Loan Note (this
“Note”).



     This Note is given effective the 7th day of October, 2010 (the “Effective Date”)
pursuant to that certain Floor Plan Loan Agreement of even date by and between Borrowers and Lender
(the “Loan Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Note but not defined herein shall
have the meanings defined in the Loan Agreement.


1. Principal.




     1.01. Loan Amount. The Lender shall loan Borrowers an amount not to exceed Thirty Million
Dollars ($30,000,000.00) (the “Principal Amount”), subject to the terms of this Note and
the Loan Agreement. The actual unpaid balance of the Principal Amount of this Note outstanding at
any time (the “Principal Balance”) shall be the unpaid balance as of the date of
computation and such Principal Balance shall be included within the meaning of “Principal”
as used herein.



     1.02. Advances. The Lender shall make advances of the Principal Amount to Borrowers from time
to time (each an “Advance” and collectively the “Advances”), subject to the terms
of this Note and the Loan Agreement which permit certain repayments of Advances in whole or in
part. The fact that the Principal Balance hereunder may be reduced to zero from time to time shall
not affect the continuing validity of this Note, and the Principal Balance may be increased up to
the Principal Amount of the Note from time to time before and after such reductions to zero.



     1.03. Payment of Principal. Except as may be accelerated or otherwise sooner paid or payable
hereunder, payment of the entire principal amount of each Advance under this Note shall be due and
payable by Borrowers to Lender as provided on the Repayment of Advance schedule attached hereto as
Exhibit A.


 









 











     1.04. Term. The term of this Note shall be subject to termination in accordance with the
terms of the Loan Agreement and Borrowers acknowledge that Lender shall have no obligation
whatsoever to make any Advance hereunder subsequent to the term of this Note.


2. Interest.




     2.01. Rate and Computation. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid Principal Balance outstanding
under this Note from time to time at the variable rate of interest equal to the one (1) month LIBOR
plus 350 basis points, determined on a monthly basis, subject to adjustment as provided in the Loan
Agreement (the “Interest Rate”). Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of
three hundred sixty (360) days applied to the actual days on which there exists an unpaid balance
under this Note. All accrued and unpaid interest under this Note shall be included within the
meaning of “Interest” as used herein.



     2.02. Payment of Interest. Except as they may be accelerated or otherwise sooner payable
hereunder, accrued and unpaid Interest, plus any then due applicable Late Charges (as hereinafter
defined), Enforcement Expenses (as hereinafter defined) and any other sums due, if any, shall be
due and payable on the first day of each month during the term of this Note. Late Charges and
Enforcement Expenses due under this Note are included within the meaning of “Other Charges”
as used herein.



     2.03. Default Interest. Notwithstanding the entry of any decree, order, judgment or other
judicial action under, pursuant to, in connection with or otherwise concerning this Note, upon the
occurrence of a Default continuing past any applicable cure period or an Event of Default (defined
herein) and/or after the maturity of this Note (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or
otherwise), Borrowers promise to pay to the Lender, whenever demanded by the Lender, interest at a
fixed rate of interest equal at all times to the Interest Rate plus two percent (2.00% )
per annum (the “Default Rate”) on the unpaid balance of the Principal Balance of this Note
and all other amounts then and thereafter due and payable hereunder from the date of such Default
or Event of Default for so long as such Default continues past any applicable cure period or such
Event of Default exists, or, from the date of such maturity until payment in full of the unpaid
balance of the Principal Balance of this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all
other amounts due and payable hereunder.


3. Late Charges. If Borrowers fail to make any payment of Principal, Interest, or any Other
Charges, becoming due pursuant to the provisions of this Note, within fifteen (15) days of the date
due and payable, Borrowers shall pay to the Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the
amount of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed in any way to extend
the due date of any such payment. Late charges are imposed for the purpose of defraying the
Lender’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, and are in addition to, and not
in lieu of, the exercise by the Lender of any rights and remedies hereunder or under applicable
laws and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Lender may employ upon the
continuance of a Default past any applicable cure period or the occurrence of an Event of Default.



4. Place of Payments; Business Day. All payments and prepayments of the unpaid balance of the
Principal Balance of this Note, Interest thereon and any Other Charges payable hereunder shall be
paid in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds during regular
business hours of the Lender at the Lender’s office at 1407 Fleet Street, Baltimore, Maryland
21231, or at such other place as the Lender or any other holder of this Note may at any time or
from time to time designate






2









 







in writing to the Borrowers. Any payment not due on a Business Day (as defined in the Loan
Agreement) shall be due on the next day which is a Business Day.



5. Application of Payments. Payments of Principal (or any partial payments thereof) or any other
payments on account of this Note (including prepayments), when paid, shall be applied first to
Enforcement Expense, Late Charges, and Other Charges (if any), then to Interest then due on the
unpaid balance of the Principal Balance of this Note and the balance, if any, shall be applied in
reduction of the unpaid balance of the Principal Amount of this Note.



6. Prepayment. The Borrowers may prepay this Note in whole at any time or in part from time to
time without penalty.



7. Enforcement Expenses. If this Note is forwarded to an attorney for collection, Borrowers shall
pay to the Lender on demand all expenses, charges, costs, and fees (including without limitation
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, including as to proceedings in any court or other forum
and regardless whether suit is filed) of any nature whatsoever paid or incurred by or on behalf of
the Lender in connection with (a) the collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations and (b)
the collection or enforcement of any of the Credit Documents, including but not limited to all such
costs of recovery, repair, preservation, inspection, maintenance, and disposition of any Collateral
securing this Note (the “Enforcement Expenses”).



8. Default. Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events (each an “Event of
Default”), the entire unpaid Principal Balance hereof and all accrued and unpaid interest
hereon shall, at the option of the Lender, at once become and be due and payable without notice or
demand of any kind:




     (a) Any Borrower shall fail to make (i) the payment of any Interest hereon or Other Charges
when due and payable or within five (5) days thereafter or (ii) the payment of Principal when due
and payable or within three (3) days thereafter; or



     (b) the failure by any Borrower to pay any amount due under any other Credit Document (whether
upon demand, at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, no prior demand therefore by Lender being
necessary), unless the failure to pay is caused by administrative or technical error and payment is
made within three (3) Business Days of its due date or;



     (c) there is a Default that continues past any applicable cure period or an Event of Default
under the Loan Agreement, the Security Agreement or any other Credit Document.


9. Security. The debt evidenced by this Note is secured by that certain Pledge and Security
Agreement of even date herewith between Borrowers and Lender.



10. Rights and Remedies of Lender; No Waiver. No waiver of any power, privilege, right or remedy
(hereinafter collectively referred to as “Rights”) hereunder shall be effective unless in
writing. The Rights of the Lender or any other holder hereof under this Note shall be irrevocable,
cumulative and concurrent, and not alternative or exclusive, and may be pursued and exercised
singularly, successively or concurrently at the sole discretion of the Lender or any other holder
hereof and may be exercised as often as the Lender or any other holder hereof shall deem necessary
or desirable. No delay on the part of Lender in exercising any Rights hereunder, or under any other
instrument executed by Borrowers or any other party in connection with the transaction (including
the other Credit Documents) shall operate as a






3









 







waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any such Rights (including acceptance of late
payments by Lender) shall preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other
Rights. Waiver by Lender of any default by any Borrower shall not constitute a waiver of any
subsequent defaults, but shall be restricted to the default so waived. The validity, illegality or
unenforceability of any provision of this Note shall not affect the validity, legality or
enforceability of any of the other provisions of this Note which shall remain effective.



11. Jury Waiver. THE BORROWERS AND THE LENDER (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE) HEREBY VOLUNTARILY
AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE.



12. Time of the Essence. Borrowers acknowledge that TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE with respect to the
payment and performance of this Note.



13. Extensions. All parties to this Note, whether maker, endorser, or guarantor, agree that the
maturity of this Note, or any payment due hereunder, may be extended at any time or from time to
time in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement without releasing, discharging, or
affecting the liability of such party.



14. Presentment, Demand for Payment, Notice of Dishonor, and Protest. EACH BORROWER, AND EACH AND
EVERY PARTY TO THIS NOTE, WHETHER BORROWER, INDORSER, OR GUARANTOR, WAIVES PRESENTMENT, DEMAND FOR
PAYMENT, NOTICE OF DISHONOR AND PROTEST.



15. Severability. If any provision or part of any provision of this Note, or the application
thereof to any facts or circumstances, shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any
other provisions or the remaining part of any effective provisions of the Note, or the application
of any provisions hereof to other facts or circumstances, and this Note shall be construed as if
such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or part thereof had never been contained herein,
but only to the extent of its invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability.



16. Commercial Loan. The Borrowers hereby stipulate and warrant that the loan evidenced hereby is
a Commercial Loan within the meaning of Title 12 of Commercial Law Article of the Annotated Code of
Maryland, and that all proceeds of such loan will be used solely to acquire or carry on a business
or commercial enterprise, as those terms are used therein.

Maryland (excluding conflicts of laws principles), United States of America, both in interpretation
and performance, and the Borrowers hereby irrevocably consent and submit to the jurisdiction and
venue of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Maryland over any suit, action or

Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all the Obligations of all Borrowers under
this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) whenever this Note imposes an
Obligation on the Borrowers, the entire Obligation shall be imposed on each Borrower; (ii) whenever
the Borrowers make a grant, agreement, covenant, representation, or warranty in this Note, such
grant, agreement, covenant, representation, or warranty shall be deemed made by each Borrower;
(iii) whenever this Note provides that the Lender shall have a right or remedy against the
Borrowers, the Lender shall have such right or remedy against each Borrower; (iv) the occurrence of
a Default or Event of Default as to any Borrower or the failure of any Borrower to comply with any
provision of this Note shall be considered to be a Default or Event of Default or failure to comply
by all Borrowers; and (v) in the event of any ambiguity or question whether, in any instance, the
term “Borrowers” refers to each Borrower, the ambiguity or question shall be resolved in favor of

Borrower without thereby extending or renewing or compromising or releasing the obligations of any

manner the Lender elects.
