Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of the Credit Agreement no longer apply, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the

shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days in a leap year, as the case may be. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to obligate Lender to obtain the funds for any Facility B Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute
a representation by Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Facility B Loan in any particular place or
manner.


 


2.9

specified in Section 9.1(e) or (f) of the Credit Agreement and during any continuance thereof, automatically
and without any action by Lender, the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Default
Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate. Such interest shall be payable on the earlier of demand or the Facility B Loan
Termination Date and shall accrue until the earlier of (a) waiver or cure (to the satisfaction of Lender) of the applicable
Event of Default, (b) agreement by Lender to rescind the charging of interest at the Default Rate, or (c) payment in
full of the Obligations. Lender shall not be required to accelerate the maturity of the Facility B Loans, to exercise any
other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, or to give notice to Borrower of the decision to charge interest at the Default
Rate. Lender will undertake to notify Borrower, after the effective date, of the decision to charge interest at the Default Rate.


 


2.10         
Payments Generally. (a)  Each payment (including prepayments) by Borrower of the principal of or interest on

Office, in Dollars constituting immediately available funds. All payments received by Lender after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed
received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.


 


(b)           
If any payment under this Facility B Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be specified to be made upon a day
which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day. Any extension of time shall in
such case be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.


 


(c)            
Borrower agrees to pay principal, interest, fees and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents without deduction for
set-off or counterclaim or any deduction whatsoever.

order of priority: (i) to the payment of Lender’s expenses incurred under the Loan Documents then due and payable, if
any; (ii) to the payment of all other fees under the Loan Documents then due and payable; (iii) to the payment of interest
then due and payable on the Facility B Loans and the Revolving Loans, to be applied as determined by Lender in its sole discretion;

reduction of the principal, in the order provided in the Facility B Agreement (subject to Paragraph 7).
Principal shall be payable as provided in Section 2.3 of the Facility B Agreement.


 


ARTICLE VIII Late
Charge. If a payment is made more than 10 days after it is due, Borrower will be charged (subject to Paragraph 8),
in addition to interest, a delinquency charge of (a) 5% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment, or
(b) $250.00, whichever is less. Additionally, upon maturity of this Note, if the outstanding principal balance (plus all
accrued but unpaid interest) is not paid within 10 days of the maturity date, Borrower will be charged (subject to Paragraph 8)
a delinquency charge of (a) 5% of the sum of the outstanding principal balance (plus all accrued but unpaid interest),
or (b) $250.00, whichever is less. Borrower agrees with Lender that the charges set forth herein are reasonable
compensation to Lender for the handling of such late payments.


 


ARTICLE IX Interest
Rate.


 


9.1             
Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Facility B Agreement and Paragraphs 3(b) and 4
of this Note, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the borrowing
date, the effective date of the election by Borrower that the Revolving Loan becomes a Eurodollar Rate Loan or such other date
on which the Revolving Loan becomes a Eurodollar Rate Loan (as applicable) to but not including the date on which another interest
rate becomes applicable to the Revolving Loan pursuant to the terms of the Facility B Agreement at a rate per annum equal
to the lesser of (A) the Highest Lawful Rate and (B) the Eurodollar Basis plus 3.00%, and (ii) each Prime Rate
Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the borrowing date, the effective date of the election
by Borrower that the Revolving Loan becomes a Prime Rate Loan or such other date on which the Revolving Loan becomes a Prime Rate
Loan (as applicable) to but not including the date on which another interest rate becomes applicable to the Facility B Loan
pursuant to the terms of the Facility B Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (A) the Highest Lawful Rate
and (B) the Prime Rate.


 






     


     


    

 


“Eurodollar
Basis” means for any day a rate per annum equal to the “London Interbank Offered Rate” for a three-month
term, as published in The Wall Street Journal (U.S. Edition) in the “London Interbank Offered Rates” column
(or if The Wall Street Journal (U.S. Edition) is not published on such day, in the issue most recently published); provided,
the Eurodollar Basis shall never be less than a rate of 0.15% per annum. Borrower acknowledges that (a) if more than one London
Interbank Offered Rate is published at any time by The Wall Street Journal, the highest of such London Interbank Offered
Rates shall constitute the London Interbank Offered Rate hereunder; provided, if the highest of such London Interbank Offered
Rates shall be less than 0.15% per annum, such rate shall be deemed to be 0.15% per annum for purposes of this Note and each other
Loan Document, and (b) if at any time The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish a London Interbank Offered Rate, Lender
shall have the right to select a substitute rate that Lender determines, in the exercise of its reasonable commercial discretion,
to be comparable to such London Interbank Offered Rate, and the substituted rate as so selected, upon the sending of written notice
thereof to Borrower, shall constitute the London Interbank Offered Rate hereunder; provided, if such substituted rate shall
be less than 0.15% per annum, such rate shall be deemed to be 0.15% per annum for purposes of this Note and each other Loan Document.
The Wall Street Journal London Interbank Offered Rate is a reference rate and does not necessarily represent the lowest
or best rate actually charged to any customer. Each determination by Lender of the London Interbank Offered Rate shall be conclusive
and binding absent manifest error, and may be computed using any reasonable averaging and attribution method.


 


9.2             
If Lender has sent to Borrower the notice provided for in either Section 4.2 or 4.3 of the Facility B
Agreement, until Lender has notified Borrower that the provisions Section 4.2 or 4.3 of the Facility B
Agreement, as appropriate, do not apply, interest on the outstanding and unpaid principal balance hereof shall be computed at a
per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) the Prime Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, said rate to be effective
as provided in Section 2.7(b) of the Facility B Agreement, except as provided in Paragraph 4.


 


“Prime Rate”
means the maximum “latest” “U.S.” prime rate of interest per annum published from time to time in the “Money
Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (U.S. Edition) or in any successor publication to The Wall Street Journal.
Borrower understands that the Prime Rate may not be the best, lowest, or most favored rate of Lender or The Wall Street Journal,
and any representation or warranty in that regard is expressly disclaimed by Lender. Borrower acknowledges that (a) if more
than one U.S. prime rate is published at any time by The Wall Street Journal, the highest of such prime rates shall constitute
the Prime Rate hereunder and (b) if at any time The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish a U.S. prime rate, Lender
shall have the right to select a substitute rate that Lender determines, in the exercise of its reasonable commercial discretion,
to be comparable to such prime rate, and the substituted rate as so selected, upon the sending of written notice thereof to Borrower,
shall constitute the Prime Rate hereunder. Upon each increase or decrease hereafter in the Prime Rate, the rate of interest upon
the unpaid principal balance hereof shall be increased or decreased by the same amount as the increase or decrease in the Prime
Rate, such increase or decrease to become effective as of the day of each such change in the Prime Rate and without notice to Borrower
or any other Person.


 


ARTICLE X
Default Rate. If an Event of Default exists, subject to the provisions of Section 2.9 of the
Facility B Agreement, and in addition to all other rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, interest on the outstanding
and unpaid principal balance hereof shall be computed at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the Eurodollar Rate
in effect at such time plus 2% and (b) the Highest Lawful Rate, but in no event in excess of the highest rate
permitted by Applicable Law, and such accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable. Borrower acknowledges that it
would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine Lender’s actual damages resulting from any event of default,
and such accrued interest is a reasonable estimate of those damages and does not constitute a penalty.


 






    	 	 2	 



     


    

 


ARTICLE XI Prepayment.
Borrower reserves the right to prepay, prior to maturity, all or any part of the principal of this Note without penalty. Any
prepayments shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to principal. Borrower will provide written notice to the
holder of this Note of any such prepayment of all or any part of the principal at the time thereof. All payments and
prepayments of principal or interest on this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in
immediately available funds, at the address of Lender indicated above, or such other place as the holder of this Note shall
designate in writing to Borrower. All partial prepayments of principal shall be applied to the last installments payable in
their inverse order of maturity.


 


ARTICLE XII
Default. It is expressly provided that if an Event of Default exists (except as provided in the last sentence of this Paragraph 6),
the holder of this Note may, at its option, without further notice or demand, (a) declare the outstanding principal
balance of and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note at once due and payable, (b) refuse to advance any additional
amounts under this Note, (c) foreclose all Liens securing payment hereof, (d) pursue any and all other rights,
remedies and recourses available to the holder hereof, including but not limited to any such rights, remedies or recourses
under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (e) pursue any combination of the foregoing; and in the event default
is made in the prompt payment of this Note when due or declared due, and the same is placed in the hands of an attorney for
collection, or suit is brought on same, or the same is collected through probate, bankruptcy or other judicial proceedings,
then Borrower agrees and promises to pay all costs of collection, including Attorney Costs. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default specified in Section 9.1(e) or (f) of the Facility B Agreement, the outstanding principal
balance of and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note shall thereupon and concurrently therewith become due and payable and
the Facility B Commitment shall forthwith terminate, all without any action by Lender or any holder of this Note and
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, anything in the Loan
Documents to the contrary notwithstanding.


 


ARTICLE
XIII No Usury Intended; Usury Savings Clause. In no event shall interest contracted for, charged or received
hereunder, plus any other charges in connection herewith which constitute interest, exceed the maximum interest permitted by
Applicable Law. The amounts of such interest or other charges previously paid to the holder of this Note in excess of the
amounts permitted by Applicable Law shall be applied by the holder of this Note to reduce the principal of the indebtedness
evidenced by the Note, or, at the option of the holder of this Note, be refunded. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law,
determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and
spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the loan and indebtedness, all interest at any time
contracted for, charged or received from Borrower hereof in connection with the loan and indebtedness evidenced hereby, so
that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform throughout the term hereof.


 


ARTICLE XIV Security.
This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to the Facility B Agreement, and is secured by, inter
alia, the Loan Documents. The holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits and security provided in the Loan
Documents.


 


ARTICLE XV
Joint and Several Liability; Waiver. Each maker, signer, surety and endorser hereof, as well as all heirs, successors
and legal representatives of said parties, shall be directly and primarily, jointly and severally, liable for the payment of
all indebtedness hereunder. Lender may release or modify the obligations of any of the foregoing persons or entities, or
guarantors hereof, in connection with this Note without affecting the obligations of the others. All such persons or entities
expressly waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate maturity, notice of
acceleration of maturity, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices and demands for which waiver
is not prohibited by Law, and diligence in the collection hereof; and agree to all renewals, extensions, indulgences, partial
payments, releases or exchanges of collateral, or taking of additional collateral, with or without notice, before or after
maturity. No delay or omission of Lender in exercising any right hereunder shall be a waiver of such right or any other right
under this Note.

ARTICLE XVI Texas
Finance Code. In no event shall Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving loan
accounts and revolving tri-party accounts) apply to this Note. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code is
applicable to this Note, the “weekly ceiling” specified in such article is the applicable ceiling; provided that,
if any Applicable Law permits greater interest, the Law permitting the greatest interest shall apply.


 


ARTICLE
XVII Governing Law, Venue. This Note is being executed and delivered, and is intended to be performed in the
State of Texas. Except to the extent that the Laws of the United States may apply to the terms hereof, the substantive Laws
of the State of Texas shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Note. In the event of a

venue for such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in Bexar County, Texas.
