Person. All of Bank’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative to the greatest extent permitted by law, may be exercised 

  

 8 








 
successively or concurrently, at any time and from time to time, and shall be in addition to all of those rights and remedies afforded Bank at law, in

the sum of: (i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note; (ii) all accrued but unpaid interest with respect to the principal amount of this Note; (iii) any other amounts that Borrower is required by the Loan Documents to pay to

of its counsel in connection with the administration or enforcement of Bank’s rights and remedies against Borrower and sale or collection thereof; (ii) to the payment in full of all Indebtedness referred to in the Loan Documents, applying
such amounts first to accrued but unpaid interest and then to principal; and (iii) the balance, if any, to Borrower or to any third party entitled thereto. 
  
 .31 (g) Right of Set Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Bank
is hereby authorized, at any time and from time to time, without notice to Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived) but subject to any prohibitions on rights of set-off contained in any Blocked Account Agreement, to set off and apply any
and all deposit balances (other than trust, restricted or fiduciary accounts) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of the obligations of Borrower now or
hereafter existing under this Note or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not Bank shall have made any demand under this Note or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. Bank agrees to promptly notify
Borrower after any such set off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. The rights of Bank under this section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of set off) that Bank may have. 
  
 15. The Borrower and all endorsers, guarantors and all other parties to this Note hereby: 
  
 (a) consent to the negotiation or assignment of this Note to any other person at any time, provided, however, the Bank shall provide
Borrower with fifteen (15) days advance notice of any negotiation or assignment of this Note; provided that so long as no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right to consent to any such assignment (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld) 
  
 (b) waive (to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law) presentment and demand, notice of demand, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of protest and non-payment thereof, notice of default, and all other notices or demands in connection with the delivery,
acceptance, performance, default, enforcement, endorsement or guarantee hereof; 
  
 (c) waive (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) all exemptions to which they may now or hereafter be entitled under the laws
of this or any other state or of the United States; 
  
 (d) waive (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any requirement of marshaling of assets and all other legal or equitable doctrines which might otherwise require the holder hereof to proceed against any persons or any
collateral or any other property or with respect to any other rights in any particular order and agree that the holder may elect not to proceed against any collateral securing this note and may instead seek to enforce and collect this note through
whatever means may otherwise be available at law or equity; 
  
 (e) agree that Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, without notice to Borrower or any other party, to renew this Note, grant the Borrower extensions of time for, or decreases in the amounts of, payment
of this Note or any other indulgence or forbearance by Bank, and may release any guarantors, endorsers or any party to this Note, or any guarantor of this Note or with any other party who may become 

  

 9 








 
primarily or secondarily liable for any of the obligations of Borrower under this Note, in every instance without the consent of Borrower or any such other
parties and without in any way affecting the continuing liability of the Borrower or any such other parties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; and 
  
 (f) waive all suretyship defenses including but not limited to all defenses based upon impairment of
collateral and all suretyship defenses described in Section 3-605 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as revised in 1990 (the “UCC”), with such waiver made to the full extent permitted by Section 3-605 (i) of the UCC.

  
 16. EACH OF THE BANK AND THE BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL
OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF BANK AND BORROWER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO BANK. 
  
 17. The Borrower agrees that the sole proper venue for the determination of
any litigation commenced by Bank against Borrower or Borrower against Bank on any basis shall be in a court of competent jurisdiction which is located in Fayette County, Kentucky, and the Borrower hereby expressly declares that any other venue shall
be improper and Borrower expressly waives any right to a determination of any such litigation against Bank by a court in any other venue. Borrower further agrees that service of process by any judicial officer or by registered or certified U.S. mail
shall establish personal jurisdiction over Borrower and Borrower waives any rights under the laws of any state to object to jurisdiction within the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Provided, however, nothing contained in this section shall prevent Bank
from bringing any action or exercising any rights against any security or against Borrower within any other state. Initiating such proceedings or taking such action in any other state shall in no event constitute a waiver of the agreement contained
herein that the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder or of the submission herein made by Borrower to personal jurisdiction within the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The aforesaid means of
obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process are not intended to be exclusive, but are cumulative and in addition to all other means of obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process now or hereafter provided
by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky or by any other state in an action brought by Bank in such state. 
  
 18. The substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (without regard to provisions governing conflicts of laws) shall govern the construction of this
Note and the rights and remedies of the parties hereto. 
  
 19.
Time is of the essence in the payment and performance of all of Borrower’s obligations under this Note and all documents securing this Note or relating hereto. 
  
 20. This Note cannot be modified, altered or amended except by an agreement in writing duly signed and acknowledged by
authorized representatives of Bank and Borrower. 
  
 21. If any
one or more of the provisions of this Note, or the applicability of any such provision to a specific situation, shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application
valid and enforceable, and the validity and enforceability of all other provisions of this Note and all other applications of any such provision shall not be affected thereby. In the event such provision(s) cannot be modified to make it or them
enforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability of any such provision(s) of this Note shall not impair the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note. 
  
 22. This Note shall bind the heirs, successors and assigns of Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of Bank and its
successors and assigns. Borrower shall not assign or allow the assumption of its rights and obligations hereunder without Bank’s prior written consent. 
  

 10 








 23. Upon demand by Bank, Borrower shall pay to Bank its costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, its reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs, litigation and other expenses) incurred or paid by Bank in administering and enforcing this Note and the Loan Documents and in maintaining, protecting, perfecting or enforcing any of
Bank’s rights or Borrower’s obligations. Borrower shall also pay the Bank’s reasonable legal fees incurred in negotiating and initially documenting the Loan. 
  
 24. No course of dealing in respect of, or any omission or delay in the exercise of, any right, power, remedy or privilege
by Bank shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any right, power, remedy or privilege of Bank be exclusive of any other right, power, remedy or privilege referred to herein or in any related document or now or hereafter available at law, in
equity, in bankruptcy, by statute or otherwise. No waiver or consent granted by Bank with respect to any of the Loan Documents or related writing shall be binding upon Bank, unless specifically granted in writing by a duly authorized officer of
Bank, which writing shall be strictly construed. 
  
 25. All
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, in the Loan Documents or any other agreement, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant hereto or made in writing in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof and thereof, the making of the Loan hereunder and the issuance of this Note and shall continue in full force and effect so long as Borrower may borrow hereunder and until payment in full of all of the Borrower’s
obligations hereunder. 
  
 26. All notices and other
communications given to or made upon any party hereto in connection with this Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall, except as herein or therein otherwise expressly provided, be in writing and mailed, faxed or delivered to the addresses set
forth herein or at such other address as shall be specifically designated by any such party. All such notices or other communications shall be effective, if mailed, when deposited in the U.S. mail, first class postage prepaid; if faxed, when faxed;
or if delivered, when delivered. 
  
 27. Borrower shall indemnify
and hold Bank harmless against any loss suffered or liability incurred by Bank on account of any damage to the person or property of the parties hereto or to third parties by reason of the operation of Borrower’s business, or otherwise arising
out of or connected to the conduct of Borrower or its officers, managers, members, employees or agents, in connection with any matters which are the subject of this Note, except for all losses or liability incurred by the Bank as a result of its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  
 28. Borrower
acknowledges that Borrower has received a copy of each of the Loan Documents, as fully executed by the parties thereto. Borrower acknowledges that Borrower (a) has READ THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR HAS CAUSED SUCH DOCUMENTS TO BE EXAMINED BY THE
BORROWER’S REPRESENTATIVES OR ADVISORS; (b) is thoroughly familiar with the transactions contemplated in this Note and the other Loan Documents; and (c) has had the opportunity to ask such questions to representatives of Bank, and
receive answers thereto, concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents as Borrower deems necessary in connection with its decision to enter into this Note. 
  
 29. Bank may sell participations in this Note, the Loan and the Loan
Documents without the consent of, or prior notice to, the Borrower. Bank shall have the right to provide to any Person who expresses an interest in becoming a participant, or who actually does become a participant, such information concerning the
financial condition, business and other affairs of Borrower as Bank may deem appropriate in the circumstances. Borrower hereby authorizes all such disclosures. 
  

30. Bank agrees to exercise its best efforts to keep confidential any non-public information delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents and identified as
such by Borrower and not to disclose such information to Persons other than to potential assignees or participants or to Persons employed by or engaged by Bank or its assignees or participants that has agreed to comply with the covenant contained in
this paragraph. The confidentiality provisions contained in this paragraph shall not apply to disclosures (i) required to be made by Bank or any other person to any regulatory or governmental agency or pursuant to legal process or
(ii) consisting 

  

 11 








 
of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrower. Bank agrees that neither it nor its affiliates will in the future issue any press releases
or other general public announcements, including any prospectus, proxy statement or other materials filed with any governmental authority relating to a public offering of the stock of Bank using the name of Borrower or Guarantor or any of their
affiliates without at least two (2) business days’ prior notice to Borrower, and without the prior written consent of Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld, unless (and only to the extent that) such Bank or affiliate is required to do
so under law and then, in any event, Bank or affiliate will consult with Borrower in issuing such press release or other public disclosure.
