after which any intended private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, which Borrower hereby agrees shall
be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. Borrower agrees to assemble, or to cause to be assembled, at its own expense,
the Collateral at such place or places as Lender shall designate. At any such sale or other disposition, Lender may, to the extent
permissible under applicable Laws, purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral, free from any right of redemption on the part
of Borrower, which right is hereby expressly waived and released.

 

Without limiting
the generality of any of the rights and remedies conferred upon Lender under this Paragraph 8.3, Lender may, to the full extent
permitted by applicable Laws:

 

(a)          Enter
upon the premises of Borrower, exclude therefrom Borrower or any officer or employee thereof, and take immediate possession of
the Collateral, either personally or by means of a receiver appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, using all necessary
and lawful self-help to do so;

 

(b)          At
Lender’s option, use, operate, manage and control the Collateral in any lawful manner;

 

(c)          Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender and/or Cynergy Data may, without notice to or consent of Borrower, purchase for itself
or sell to a third party on its own behalf all rights of Borrower related to the Merchants, including, without limitation, the
right to receive residuals under the merchant agreements, the Processing Agreement and any similar or related agreement, for an
amount equal to the product of (i) the average monthly residual payment received by Borrower with respect to the Merchants for
the trailing twelve month period and (ii) a multiplier which is the current prevailing market multiplier for equivalent processing
portfolios; provided however, that if such Event of Default is an occurrence under Section 8.1(a) of this Agreement such multiplier
will be six (6). Borrower shall fully cooperate with Lender and/or Cynergy Data to effectuate the purchase and/or sale of its rights
related to the Merchants and shall refrain from contesting such sale in any regard. In the event that the purchase price exceeds
the Obligations, Lender shall remit the balance to Borrower after set-off with respect to all Obligations. In the event that the
purchase price is less than the Obligations hereunder, Borrower shall remain liable for the balance of the Obligations;

 

(d)          Collect
and receive all receivables, rents, income, revenue, earnings, issues and profits therefrom; and

 

(e)          Maintain,
repair, renovate, alter or remove the Collateral as Lender may determine in its discretion.

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS

 

9.1           Construction.
The provisions of this Agreement shall be in addition to those of any security agreement, note or other evidence of liability held
by Lender, all of which shall be construed as complementary to each other; provided, in the event of any inconsistency, the provisions
of this Agreement shall control. Nothing herein contained shall prevent Lender from enforcing any or all other security agreements
in accordance with their respective terms.

 

9.2           Further
Assurance. From time to time, Borrower will execute and deliver to Lender such additional documents and will provide such additional
information as Lender may reasonably require to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

 

9.3           Enforcement
and Waiver by Lender. Lender shall have the right at all times to enforce the provisions of the Loan Documents in strict accordance
with the terms thereof, notwithstanding any conduct or custom on the part of Lender in refraining from so doing at any time or
times. The failure of Lender at any time or times to enforce its rights under such provisions, strictly in accordance with the
same, shall not be construed as having created a custom in any way or manner contrary to specific provisions of the Loan Documents
or as having in any way or manner modified or waived the same. All rights and remedies of Lender are cumulative and concurrent
and the exercise of one right or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy.

 

9.4           Expenses
of Lender. Borrower will, on demand:

 

 (a)          Reimburse
Lender as detailed in the Promissory Note Schedule 1 for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including without limitation
the fees and expenses of legal counsel for Lender, incurred by Lender in connection with the preparation, administration, amendment,
restatement, or modification of the Note.

 

 (b)          Reimburse
for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including without limitation the fees and expenses of legal counsel for Lender,
incurred by Lender in connection with enforcement of the Loan Documents and the collection or attempted collection of the Note
upon an Event of Default as set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement.

 

9.5           Notices.
Any and all notices or other communications permitted or required to be made under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be delivered personally or sent by facsimile transmission, mail or nationally recognized courier service (such as Federal Express)
using the intended recipient’s address set forth below, or such other address as may have been supplied in writing by the
intended recipient and of which receipt has been acknowledged in writing. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, notices or
other communications shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (a) upon personal delivery, (b) when sent by facsimile (confirmation
of receipt received), (c) on the third (3rd) day after the date of mailing, or (d) on the
day after the date of delivery to such courier service, as the case may be. Rejection, refusal to accept or inability to deliver
because of a changed address of which no notice was given shall not affect the validity of any notice or other communication given
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Lender, and its officers, directors, employees and agents free and harmless from and against
any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith, including,
without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, incurred by Lender as a result of, or arising out of, or relating
to the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Loan Documents or any instrument contemplated therein, except for
Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable
for any reason, Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such liabilities and
costs permitted under applicable Laws.

 

9.8           Applicable

severable.

 

9.11         Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed by the parties independently in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall constitute
but one and the same instrument which is valid and effective as if all parties had executed the same counterpart.

FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, TOT Payments, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (doing business as Unified Payments), TOT
New Edge, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, Process Pink, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and TOT FBS, LLC, a
Florida limited liability company (collectively, the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of Priority Payment Systems
LLC , (“Payee”; Payee and any subsequent holder(s) hereof are sometimes herein referred to individually and
collectively as “Holder”), the principal sum of TWO MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($2,000,000.00), together with
interest and loan charges on the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the loan evidenced hereby at the rate(s) specified below;
provided that in no event shall the interest and loan charges payable in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the
maximum amounts from time to time allowed to be collected under applicable law. Capitalized terms used herein without definition
shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith by and among Maker, as borrower, and Payee,
as lender.

 

This Note shall
be paid in monthly installments as detailed in Schedule I, which shall be due and payable on the twentieth day of each month,
consisting of principal plus interest at the Interest Rate (as defined hereinafter); provided, however, that if the
date of any payment due and payable (including, the Loan Termination Date) is not a Business Day, then any payments hereunder shall
be due on the immediately previous Business Day. The principal amount due hereunder, together with interest, loan charges and any
other Obligation accruing hereunder, shall bear interest at a floating rate adjusted monthly equal to the “prime rate”
indicated on the Money Rate page of the Wall Street Journal plus six percent (6.00%) (the “Interest Rate”).
On the Loan Termination Date, all outstanding principal, interest accrued but unpaid and any other amounts accrued and unpaid shall
be immediately due in full. The payment structure of this loan shall be referenced in Schedule I.

 

Maker shall have
the right to prepay the Loan pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement. All amounts received for payment of this Note shall be
first applied to any expenses due Holder under this Note, the Loan Agreement or the Security Agreement, then to accrued and unpaid
interest, and finally to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount.

 

Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the entire outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, together with all accrued
and unpaid interest thereon any other amounts accrued and unpaid, may be declared, and immediately shall become, due and payable
in full.

 

Presentment for
payment, demand, protest and notice of demand, protest and nonpayment are hereby waived by Maker and all other parties hereto.

 

It is the intention
of Maker and Holder to conform strictly to all laws applicable to Holder that govern or limit the interest and loan charges that
may be charged in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Anything in this Note or any of the other Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of proceeds of the loans, acceleration of the
maturity of the unpaid balance of any of the Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or otherwise, shall the interest and
loan charges agreed to be paid to any Holder for the use of the money advanced or to be advanced under this Note exceed the maximum
amounts collectible pursuant to applicable law. Maker and the Payee have agreed that:

 

    Promissory Note

     

    

 

(a)          if
for any reason whatsoever the interest or loan charges paid or contracted to be paid by Maker to the Holder in respect of the Obligations
shall exceed the maximum amount collectible under the law applicable to the Holder, then, in that event, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Note or any other Loan Document (i) the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes interest or loan
charges under the law applicable to such Holder that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under this Note or
any other Loan Document or otherwise in connection with the Obligations under no circumstances shall exceed the maximum amounts
allowed by such applicable law, and any excess paid to any Holder shall be credited by such Holder on the principal amount of the
Obligations (or, to the extent the principal amount outstanding under this Note and the other Loan Documents has been or thereby
would be paid in full, refunded to Maker), and (ii) in the event that the maturity of any or all of the Obligations is accelerated
by reason of an election of the Holders resulting from any Event of Default, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment,
then such consideration that constitutes interest or loan charges under the law applicable to any Holder may never include more
than the maximum amounts allowed by the law applicable to such Holder, and any excess interest or loan charges provided for in
the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore
paid, shall be credited by such Holder on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent the principal amount of the
Obligations has been or thereby would be paid in full, refunded by such Holder to Maker);

 

(b)          all
sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due under the Loan Documents shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Obligations until
payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest and loan charges on account of the Obligations will not exceed any applicable
legal limitation; and

 

(c)          the
right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not include the right to accelerate the maturity of any interest or loan
charges not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and the Holder do not intend to charge or collect any unearned
interest or loan charges in the event of any such acceleration.

 

This Note has
been negotiated, executed and delivered in the State of Georgia, and is intended as a contract under and shall be construed and
enforceable in accordance with the laws of said state, without reference to the conflicts or choice of law principles thereof,
except to the extent that Federal law may be applicable to determining the maximum amount of interest that may be charged by Holder
in respect of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.
