    In order

    Seller
has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Collateral or
preserve rights in it against prior parties.  Buyer authorizes Seller
to prepare and file financing statements describing the Collateral in such
jurisdictions as Seller deems appropriate. No delay on the part of Seller in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies
herein specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
which Seller would otherwise have.

     

    6.           Setoff.  Each
Obligor grants Seller a security interest and lien in any and all monies,
balances and accounts now or hereafter owed Seller by such Obligor and agrees
that Seller may, and Seller reserves the right to, charge and set off against
any such monies, balances and accounts any amounts owing on the Note, whether
due or not.  This right of set off may be exercised notwithstanding
the subordination provisions below.

     

    7.           Rights of
Holder.  Without affecting the liability of either Obligor, the
holder of this Note may, from time to time and without notice, renew or extend
the time for payment, accept partial payments, release or impair any collateral
security for payment of this Note, or agree not to sue any party liable on
it.

     

    8.           Default.  If
any one or more of the following conditions or events (each an “Event of Default”)
shall occur:

     

    a.           Default in Payment of
Note:  If Obligors shall default in the payment of any
principal, interest or other amount due under the terms of this Note;
or

     

    b.           Default in Compliance with
Note Terms:  If Obligors shall default in the performance of or
compliance with any term (other than payment of any principal or interest
hereon) contained in this Note and such default shall not have been remedied
within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence thereof; or

     

    c.           Breach of Representation or
Warranty:  If any representation or warranty made by Obligors
in this Note proves to be incorrect in any material respect or is breached in
any material respect; or

     

    d.           Other
Agreements:  If any representation or warranty set forth in
Article IV of the Purchase Agreement shall cease to be true at any time while
any principal or interest on this Note remains outstanding (notwithstanding that
such representations and warranties are made as of execution of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and Closing thereunder, for purposes of this Note such
representations and warranties shall be deemed to be continually remade);
or

     

    e.           Bankruptcy; Insolvency;
Involuntary or Voluntary Liquidation or Dissolution:  If either
Obligor (1) shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (2) shall
admit in writing its inability to pay a major part of its debts as they become
due, or (3) shall become the subject of any insolvency, bankruptcy,
receivership, or dissolution proceeding and, if such proceeding is instituted
against such Obligor, shall have been consented to or acquiesced in by such
Obligor, or shall remain un-dismissed for 60 days, or an order for relief shall
have been entered against such Obligor (any event under this clause (e) being a
(“Bankruptcy Default”));

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    Then
Seller may at any time, (x) at the option of Seller, by written notice given to
either Obligor, declare this Note to be, and this Note shall thereupon become,
due and payable, without any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and Obligors forthwith will pay
to Seller (i) the whole of the principal balance of this Note (then
outstanding), (ii) all interest owed, (iii) all other sums, as provided in this
Note and (iv) all costs incurred by Seller in connection with this Note or any
renewal, extension, or change of or substitution for this Note or any part
thereof, whether made or incurred at the request of Obligors and including all
costs of enforcement, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and (y) exercise any
and all rights of a secured party upon default under the
Code.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Bankruptcy
Default all sums referred to in (i) through (iv) above shall automatically
mature and become immediately payable by Obligors.  Seller’s receipt
of any payment after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall not constitute
a waiver of such default or any of the Seller’s rights and
remedies.

    

    9.           Guaranteed.  The
obligations of each Obligor hereunder are secured, in part, by that certain
Limited Guarantee Agreement dated the date hereof given by Charles Sheedy, David
Jorden, George McDaniel, Mike McDaniel, William Miller and John Paul DeJoria in
favor of Seller.

     

    10.         Waiver.  The
obligations of each Obligor hereunder shall be joint and several,
and  the liability of each Obligor shall be absolute and
unconditional, regardless of the liability of the other Obligor; and each
Obligor acknowledges that Seller has not made any representations or warranties
regarding the financial condition of any other Obligor or the value of any
collateral.  Each Obligor and any indorsers, sureties or guarantors
waive presentment, demand, notice of dishonor and protest, and agree to pay all
costs of collection, before and after judgment, including reasonable attorneys’
fees and legal expenses.

     

    11.         Governing
Law.  This Note is governed by the internal laws of the State
of Delaware, except to the extent superseded by federal law.

collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which, but for
this provision, would be excessive interest, shall be applied to the reduction
of the principal amount of the indebtedness thereby evidenced; and if the
principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced thereby, and all lawful interest
thereon, is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the
Borrower, or other party lawfully entitled thereto.  In determining

exceeds the highest rate which Bank may lawfully charge under applicable law
from time to time in effect, the Borrower and the Bank shall, to the maximum
extent permitted under applicable law, characterize any non-principal payment as
a reasonable loan charge, rather than as interest.  Any provision
hereof, or of any other agreement between the Bank and the Borrower, that
operates to bind, obligate, or compel the Borrower to pay interest in excess of
such maximum rate shall be construed to require the payment of the maximum rate
only.  The provisions of this paragraph shall be given precedence over
any other provision contained herein or in any other agreement between the Bank
and the Borrower that is in conflict with the provisions of this
paragraph.

    The Note
shall be governed and construed according to the statutes and laws of the State
of Tennessee from time to time in effect, except to the extent that
Section 85 of Title 12 of the United States Code (or other applicable
federal statue) may permit the charging of a higher rate of interest than
applicable state law, in which event such applicable federal statute, as amended
and supplemented from time to time shall govern and control the maximum rate of
interest permitted to be charged hereunder; it being intended that, as to the
maximum rate of interest which may be charged, received, and collected
hereunder, those applicable statutes and laws, whether state or federal, from
time to time in effect, which permit the charging of a higher rate of interest,
shall govern and control; provided, always, however, that in no event and under
no circumstances shall the Borrower be liable for the payment of interest in
excess of the maximum rate permitted by such applicable law, from time to time
in effect.

     

    9.12        Non-Control.  In no event shall
the Bank’s rights hereunder be deemed to indicate that the Bank is in control of
the business, management or properties of the Borrower or has power over the
daily management functions and operating decisions made by the
Borrower.

     

    9.13        Renewal. No later than December
15, 2010 (and each December 15, thereafter if the Loan is renewed), the Bank may
provide the Borrower with written notice of its intent to renew or not renew the
Note for one (1) additional year after the Termination Date of Revolving Credit
Loan, provided, however, the Bank is not obligated to provide such notice and if
the Bank fails to provide such notice, regardless of the reason therefor, the
Bank shall not be obligated to renew the Note and the Note shall remain due and
payable in full on the Termination Date.  If the Bank so notifies the
Borrower of its intent to renew the definition of “Termination Date” shall
automatically be amended to reflect such additional year (i.e. March 31, 2012
shall become March 31, 2013, etc.).

     

    9.14        Fees and
Expenses.  The Borrower
agrees to pay, or reimburse the Bank for, the actual out-of-pocket expenses,
including reasonable counsel fees actually incurred for one counsel of Bank and
fees of any accountants, inspectors or other similar experts, as deemed
necessary by the Bank, incurred by the Bank in connection with the development,
preparation, execution, amendment, recording, administration (excluding the
salary of Bank’s employees and Bank’s normal and usual overhead expenses) or
enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under this Loan Agreement, the
Note, the Negative Pledge Agreement, and any instrument or document now or
hereafter securing the Revolving Credit Loan indebtedness.

     

    9.15        Time of
Essence.  Time is of the
essence of this Loan Agreement, the Note, and the other instruments and
documents executed and delivered in connection herewith.

     

    9.16        Bank’s
Consent.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, in any instance hereunder where Bank’s
approval or consent is required or the exercise of its judgment is required, the
granting or denial of such approval or consent and the exercise of such judgment
shall be within the reasonable discretion of Bank, and Bank shall not, for any
reason or to any extent, be required to grant such approval or consent or
exercise such judgment.  Bank may consult with counsel, and the
written advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

    9.17        Venue of
Actions.  As an integral
part of the consideration for the making of the loans, it is expressly
understood and agreed that no suit or action shall be commenced by the Borrower,
or by any successor, or permitted assignee of any of them, with respect to the
Revolving Credit Loan, or with respect to this Loan Agreement or any other
document or instrument which now or hereafter evidences or secures all or any
part of the Revolving Credit Loan, other than in a state court of competent
jurisdiction in and for the County of Hamilton, Tennessee, or in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, and not
elsewhere.  Nothing in this paragraph contained shall prohibit Bank
from instituting suit in any court of competent jurisdiction for the enforcement
of its rights hereunder or in any other document or instrument which evidences
or secures the Revolving Credit Loan.

     

    9.18        Waiver of
Right to Trial By Jury.  EACH PARTY TO
THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION
HEREWITH, OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE
DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION
HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER
NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS
THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT
TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL
COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE
CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY.

     

    9.19        Conflict.  In the event of
any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of the Negative
Pledge Agreement, the Note or any other document executed in connection herewith
during the continuance of this Loan Agreement the provisions of this Loan
Agreement shall control.

     

    9.20        Removal
of Liens.  Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Loan Agreement to the contrary, the Borrower agrees
to cause to be cancelled of record the recorded liens in favor of Wachovia, Bank
of America, CIT and William Miller within sixty (60) days from the date of this
Loan Agreement.

            Except as may be
otherwise extended pursuant to the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined), on
March 31, 2012 (the “Termination Date”) the undersigned, MILLER
INDUSTRIES, INC., a Tennessee corporation, APACO,
INC., a Delaware corporation, CENTURY
HOLDINGS, INC., a Tennessee corporation, CHAMPION
CARRIER CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, CHEVRON,
INC., a Pennsylvania corporation, MILLER
FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC., a Tennessee corporation, MILLER/GREENEVILLE,
INC., a Tennessee corporation, MILLER
INDUSTRIES INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Tennessee corporation, MILLER
INDUSTRIES TOWING EQUIPMENT INC., a Delaware corporation, (singularly and
collectively, the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of FIRST
TENNESSEE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association
having a principal place of business in Chattanooga, Tennessee (the “Bank”), the
principal sum of Twenty Million and NO/100 Dollars ($20,000,000.00), or, if
less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances
made to the undersigned pursuant to the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined),
together with interest upon disbursed and unpaid principal balances of the
Revolving Credit Advances, at the rate hereinafter specified, said interest
being payable quarterly on the last day of each quarter hereafter commencing
March 31, 2010, and continuing on each June 30, September 30, December 31 and
March 31, thereafter, with the final installment of interest being due and
payable concurrently on the same date that the remaining principal balance is
due hereunder.

         

            This Note is being
executed in connection with that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of even date
herewith, among Maker and Bank (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified
from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”).  To the extent that any
provisions of this Note are inconsistent with the Loan Agreement, the Loan
Agreement shall govern and control.  Any capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined herein, shall have their respective meanings in the
Loan Agreement.

         

            The interest
rate on this Note shall be the LIBOR Rate plus
1.75% (the “Margin”), as determined and adjusted in accordance with the
definition of LIBOR Rate, without notice to Maker, as of the date of this Note
and on the first day of each calendar month hereafter (the “Interest Rate Change
Date”).  The “LIBOR Rate” shall mean the London Interbank Offered Rate
of interest for an interest period of one (1) month, which appears on Bloomberg
page BBAM under the column heading “USD” on the day that is two (2) London
Business Days preceding
each Interest Rate Change Date (the “Reset Date”).  If the LIBOR Rate
as defined above is not available or is not published for any Reset Date, then
Bank shall, in its reasonable and good faith credit judgment, choose a
substitute source of publication for the LIBOR Rate, which LIBOR Rate plus the
Margin shall become effective on the next Interest Rate Change
Date.  “London Business Day” shall mean any day on which commercial
banks in London, England are open for general business.  The interest
rate change will not occur more often than each month. The
initial interest rate is 2.00075% per
annum.   NOTICE:  Under no circumstances will the
interest rate on the Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable
law (the “Maximum Rate”).

         

        
          
             

          

          
             

            
              

            

          

          
             

          

        

         

            Notwithstanding any
other provisions herein, if any Change in Law (as hereinafter defined) shall
make it unlawful for the Bank to make or maintain a LIBOR Rate loan as
contemplated by this Note, the principal outstanding hereunder shall, if
required by law and if the Bank so requests, be converted on the date required
to make the loan evidenced by this Note legal to a loan accruing interest at a
rate comparable to the former LIBOR Rate as determined by the Bank its
reasonable and good faith credit judgment.

         

            The
undersigned hereby indemnifies the Bank and holds the Bank harmless from any
loss or expense which Bank may sustain in accordance with the Loan
Agreement.

         

            “Change in
Law” shall mean the adoption of any law, rule, regulation, policy, guideline or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change therein or in
the interpretation or application thereof, in all cases by any Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction over the Bank, in each case after the date
hereof.

         

            “Governmental
Authority” shall mean any nation or government, any state or other political
subdivision thereof and any entity exercising regulatory functions of or
pertaining to government.

         

            Until the
Termination Date, subject to Section 8.9 of the Loan Agreement, the Maker may
borrow, repay and reborrow the principal amount of this
Note.

         

            This Note is
unsecured.

         

            All installments of
interest, and the principal hereof, are payable at the office of First Tennessee
Bank National Association, 701 Market Street, Chattanooga, Tennessee, or at such
other place as the holder may designate in writing, in lawful money of the
United States of America, which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts
and dues, public and private, at the time of payment.

         

            Any amounts not paid
when due hereunder (whether by acceleration or otherwise and subject to
applicable grace periods) shall bear interest after maturity at the lesser of
(a) the Bank’s Base rate plus three percent (3%) per annum or (b) the
Maximum Rate.  For purposes hereof, the Base Rate shall mean that rate
announced by Bank from time to time as Bank’s “base rate” and shall not
necessarily be the lowest or best rate charged by Bank.

         

        
          
             

          

          
             

            
              

            

          

          
             

          

        

         

            For any payment
which is not made within ten (10) days of the due date for such payment, the
Borrower shall pay a late fee, including without limitation loans which are
renewed more than ten (10) days after the due date even though the renewal may
be dated as of the past-due payment date.  The late fee shall equal
five percent (5%) of the unpaid portion of the past-due
payment.

         

            If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing (subject to applicable cure
periods), all after the Bank mails written notice of such Event of Default to
the Maker, then, in any of such events, the entire unpaid principal balance of
the indebtedness evidenced hereby together with all interest then accrued,
shall, at the absolute option of the Bank, at once become due and payable,
without demand or notice, the same being expressly
waived.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the maturity date of this
Note set forth on page one of this Note, no notice or cure period shall be
required.

         

            If this Note is
placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, by suit or otherwise, or to
protect the security for its payment, or to enforce its collection, or to
represent the rights of the Bank in connection with any loan documentation
executed in connection herewith, or to defend successfully against any claim,
cause of action or suit brought by the Maker against the Bank, the Maker shall
pay on demand all costs of collection and litigation (including court costs),
together with a reasonable attorney’s fee all in accordance with the Loan
Agreement.

         

            The Maker and any
endorsers or guarantors hereof waive protest, demand, presentment, and notice of
dishonor, and agree that this Note may be extended, in whole or in part, without
limit as to the number of such extensions or the period or periods thereof,
without notice to them and without affecting their liability
hereon.

         

            It is the intention
of the Bank and the Maker to comply strictly with applicable usury laws; and,
accordingly, in no event and upon no contingency shall the Bank ever be entitled
to receive, collect, or apply as interest any interest, fees, charges or other
payments equivalent to interest, in excess of the maximum rate which the Bank
may lawfully charge under applicable statutes and laws from time to time in
effect; and in the event that the holder hereof ever receives, collects, or
applies as interest any such excess, such amount which, but for this provision,
would be excessive interest, shall be applied to the reduction of the principal
amount of the indebtedness hereby evidenced; and if the principal amount of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby, and all lawful interest thereon, is paid in full,
any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Maker, or other party
lawfully entitled thereto.  In determining whether or not the interest
paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the highest rate which
Bank may lawfully charge under applicable law from time to time in effect, the
Maker and the Bank shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law,
characterize any non-principal payment as a reasonable loan charge, rather than
as interest.  Any provision hereof, or of any other agreement between
the Bank and the Maker, that operates to bind, obligate, or compel the Maker to
pay interest in excess of such maximum rate shall be construed to require the
payment of the maximum rate only.  The provisions of this paragraph
shall be given precedence over any other provision contained herein or in any
other agreement between the Bank and the Maker that is in conflict with the
provisions of this paragraph.

         

        
          
             

          

          
             

            
              

            

          

          
             

          

        

         

            This Note shall be
governed and construed according to the statutes and laws of the State of
Tennessee from time to time in effect, except to the extent that Section 85 of
Title 12 of the United States Code (or other applicable federal statue) may
permit the charging of a higher rate of interest than applicable state law, in
which event such applicable federal statute, as amended and supplemented from
time to time shall govern and control the maximum rate of interest permitted to
be charged hereunder; it being intended that, as to the maximum rate of interest
which may be charged, received, and collected hereunder, those applicable
statutes and laws, whether state or federal, from time to time in effect, which
permit the charging of a higher rate of interest, shall govern and control;
provided, always, however, that in no event and under no circumstances shall the
Maker be liable for the payment of interest in excess of the maximum rate
permitted by such applicable law, from time to time in
effect.
