The Wheatstone Energy Group, LLC, f/k/a WEGI Acquisition, LLC, hereby promises to pay to the order
of National Loan Investors, L.P., a Delaware Limited Partnership (hereinafter the “Lender”),
transferee and assignee of Wachovia Bank, N.A., at its office where borrowed or at such other place
as Lender hereafter may direct from time to time in writing, Lender’s initial office being 5619
North Classen Blvd., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73118, in immediately available funds of lawful money
of the United States, the principal sum of EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY-SEVEN THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FIFTEEN
AND 49/100 DOLLARS ($857,215.49) together with any unpaid interest hereon from date of advance, in
accordance with the terms contained in this Note. The optional provisions applicable to this Note
are checked below.

Repayment:

	þ	 	 Monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of SEVEN
THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED SEVENTY-ONE AND 44/100 DOLLARS ($7,771.44)
(each a “Monthly Payment Amount”), beginning on February 19, 2011
and continuing on the nineteenth (19th) day of each month
thereafter, until the amended and modified maturity date of January
19, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”), when the entire principal amount
then outstanding and unpaid, accrued and unpaid interest and all
other charges, fees, costs and/or expenses not previously paid;
provided, however, that at any time from the Effective Date through
the Maturity Date (the “Discounted Payoff Time Period”), that as an
accommodation to Borrower and in consideration of the transactions
contemplated and agreed to pursuant to the 2011 Assumption
Agreement, and further provided that none of the following has
occurred at any time during the Discounted Payoff Time Period: (i)
the Borrower has failed to make any payment required under the
Related Note and/or this Note in
strict accordance and compliance with the terms thereof; (ii) a default, breach, violation or
other instance of non-compliance has occurred with respect to the Related Note, the 2011
Assumption Agreement or any other Loan Documents; or (iii) an Event of Default or other
default has occurred under this Note (each of the conditions, occurrences and/or events
described in (i) through (iii) above shall hereinafter sometimes each be

 

 

	 	 	referred to as a
“Discounted Payoff Rescission Event” or collectively as the “Discounted Payoff Rescission
Events”), then in such event and provided that no Discounted Payoff Rescission Event has
occurred at any time during the Discounted Payoff Time Period, Lender hereby agrees to accept
a discounted principal payoff (but not a discounted payoff of any other charges, fees, costs
of expenses provided hereunder or under any other Loan Documents) in the amount of SEVEN
HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($700,000.00) (the “Discounted Principal Payoff Amount”),
which Discounted Principal Payoff Amount shall be accompanied by the full, complete and
indefeasible payoff and payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and all other charges,
fees, costs and/or expenses not previously paid on the entire balance of this Note, and which
accrued and unpaid interest shall be calculated based on the Discounted Principal Payoff
Amount rather than the Total Principal Amount provided that no Discounted Payoff Rescission
Event has occurred at any time during the Discounted Payoff Time Period. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the Monthly Payment Amount is based upon an assumed term of One
Hundred and Twenty Months (120) as to the Discounted Principal Payoff Amount (rather than the
Total Principal Amount) based on a fixed per annum interest rate of Six Percent (6%) as set
forth below. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other term of any other Loan Document to
the contrary, in the event of the occurrence of a Discounted Payoff Rescission Event at any
time during the Discounted Payoff Time Period, then in such event: (i) Borrower shall have no
right or ability whatsoever to avail itself of the Discounted Principal Payoff Amount and
Lender shall have no obligation and/or responsibility to accept the Discounted Principal
Payoff Amount in satisfaction of the outstanding principal balance of this Note; (ii) all
interest accruing from and after the Effective Date, whether previously paid or not, shall be
retroactively recalculated from the Effective Date based on the Total Principal Amount (not
the Discounted Principal Payoff Amount) and Borrower shall immediately make payment to Lender
for all additional interest so retroactively assessed and calculated, with credit given for
interest previously paid; (iii) Lender, at Lender’s sole option and discretion shall have the
option to recalculate and recast the Monthly Payment Amount based upon the Total Principal
Amount (rather than the Discounted Principal Payment Amount); (iv) Borrower shall be
responsible, liable and obligated for the full, complete and indefeasible payment of the
Total Principal Amount (without right or regard to the Discounted Principal Payoff Amount),
all in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Note, the 2011 Assumption Agreement
and all other applicable Loan Document, including and giving effect to any and all right and
remedies contained therein that may result from the occurrence of Discounted Payoff
Rescission Event, any default or Event of Default of this Note or other Loan Documents,
including but not limited to any rights to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced by this
Note. The Borrower may NOT borrow, repay and reborrow sums up to the Total Principal Amount
set forth above, as this is considered a term loan, not a revolving line of credit loan.

Interest:

Payable at the rate per annum of:

	þ	 	 Six Percent (6%) Fixed.

In no case shall interest exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

	þ	 	 In addition, Borrower agrees to pay to lender a non-refundable assumption and modification
loan fee of ZERO AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($0.00).

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of
days elapsed.

After demand or maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), as applicable, interest on any
unpaid balance hereof shall be payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to FIVE PERCENT (5%)
above the rate applicable prior to demand or maturity, not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law.

To the extent not prohibited by law, a late charge of FIVE PERCENT (5%) or the applicable statutory
maximum, whichever is greater, shall be assessed on any payment remaining past due for TEN (10)
days or more unless; provided, however, that if any applicable statute allows a shorter minimum
time period for the imposition of a late charge, such shorter time period shall prevail.

 

 

All payments on this Note shall be applied, in accordance with the then current billing statement
applicable to this Note, first to accrued interest, then to fees, then to principal due, and then
to late charges. Any remaining funds shall be applied to the further reduction’ of principal.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a default hereunder or any other Event of
Default, payments shall be applied as determined by Lender in its sole discretion.

     In addition to any other collateral specified herein and in other agreements, to secure the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note, together with any extensions, modifications, amendments,
restatements or renewals thereof, in whole or in part, as well as all other indebtedness,
obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Lender, now existing or hereafter incurred or
arising, including, without limitation, all sums arising under any ISDA Master Agreement now or
hereafter executed between Borrower and Lender and any related schedules and confirmations thereto
(hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Obligations”), except for other indebtedness,
obligations and liabilities owing to Lender that constitute: (a) consumer credit as defined in
Federal Reserve Board Regulation Z and either subject to the disclosure requirements of Federal
Reserve Board Regulation Z or state consumer protection laws; or (b) non-consumer credit if under
applicable state law the maximum interest rate for such credit is reduced when secured (herein
collectively referred to as “Restricted Debt”), the Borrower does hereby grant to the Lender a
security interest in, and does hereby pledge to Lender the following described property: (i) all
collateral more particularly described in Security Agreement-Commercial dated July 26, 2001, the
Term Loans evidenced by the Note and Security Agreements dated October 14, 1999, August 24, 2001,
October 11, 2001 and December 5, 2001, as revised by the Extension Agreement, the May 12, 2003 and

2011 Assumption Agreement, the Related Note and all other Loan Documents that describe the

Vehicle Collateral (as such term is defined in the 2011 Assumption Agreement), more fully
described in the 2011 Assumption Agreement of even date herewith; and (ii) all property and other
collateral described and set forth in Schedule 1, attached hereto and by this reference
incorporated herein and made a part hereof, all of which described in (i) and (ii) above whether
now owned or hereafter acquired, together with any and all additions and accessions thereto or
replacements thereof, returned or unearned premiums from any insurance written in connection with
this Note and any products and/or proceeds of any of the foregoing. In no event, however, shall the
Lender have a security interest in any goods acquired by the Borrower for personal, family or
household purposes more than 10 days after the date of this Note, unless such goods are added to or
attached to the Collateral (as hereinafter defined). In addition, to the extent not prohibited by
law, the Borrower hereby grants to the Lender a security interest in, and does hereby pledge to
Lender: (i) all other property of the Borrower now or hereafter in the possession or control of the
Lender (exclusive of any such property in the possession or control of the Lender as a fiduciary
other than as agent), including, without limitation, all cash, stock or other dividends and all
proceeds thereof, and all rights to subscribe for securities incident thereto and any substitutions
or replacements for, or other rights in connection with, any of the Collateral; and (ii) any of
Borrower’s deposit accounts (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of
Georgia, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Code”), whether such accounts be
general or special, or individual or multiple party, held by Lender and upon all drafts, notes, or
other items-deposited for collection or presented for payment by the Borrower with the Lender, and
the Lender may at any time, without demand or notice, appropriate and apply any of such to the
payment of any of the Obligations (except for Restricted Debt), whether or not due. All property
described in this paragraph (including but not limited

 

 

to Schedule 1 of this Note), in which the
Borrower, Wheatstone, WEGI or any other party to which Borrower has previously, hereby is, or
hereafter becomes a successor thereof (whether by merger, assumption or otherwise) has granted to
the Lender a security interest or security title hereunder, is herein collectively referred to as
the “Collateral.” If, with respect to any Collateral in the form of investment securities, a stock
dividend is declared or any stock split-up made or right to subscribe issued, all the certificates
for the shares representing such stock dividend or split-up or right to subscribe will be
immediately delivered, duly endorsed, to the Lender as additional Collateral. The Lender shall be
deemed to have possession, control and custody of any Collateral actually in transit to it or to
any of its officers or agents.

     If at any time the Collateral pledged as security for any of the Obligations shall be or
become unsatisfactory to the Lender or should the Lender deem itself insecure, the Borrower will
immediately furnish such further property to be held by the Lender as if originally pledged as
Collateral hereunder or make such payment on account as will be satisfactory to the Lender.

     The Lender shall have, but shall not be limited to, the following rights, each of which may be
exercised at any time or from time to time: (i) to transfer this Note and the Collateral, and any
transferee shall have all the rights of the Lender hereunder and the Lender shall be thereafter
relieved from any liability with respect to any Collateral so transferred; (ii) to execute at any
time in the name of any party hereto and to file one or more financing statements describing the
Collateral, which financing statement’s may contain a generic collateral description that is
broader than the Collateral and which may describe any agricultural liens or other statutory liens
held by Lender; and (iii) to request and receive current financial information from any party
liable for all or any part of the Obligations.

     The Lender shall have, but shall not be limited to, the following rights, each of which may be
exercised during which time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) to receive or
take control of any income or other proceeds of any of the Collateral; (ii) to transfer the whole
or any part of the Collateral in the name of itself or its nominees; (iii) to vote any investment
securities forming a part of the Collateral; and (iv) to notify the obligors on any Obligation to
make payment to the Lender of any amounts due thereon.

     Borrower will at Lender’s request maintain insurance on the Collateral in amounts at least
equal to the fair market value of the Collateral and against casualty, public liability and
property damage risks and such other risks as Lender may request; provided, however, if the
Collateral described above is a vehicle(s), Borrower agrees to obtain and maintain liability
insurance as required by law and collision and comprehensive insurance with a deductible not
exceeding FIVE HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($500.00). All insurance shall be with companies with a
Best Insurance Report Rating of B+ or better, and Borrower will pay all premiums for insurance when
due. Unless and until requested by Lender, Borrower shall not be required to name Lender as
additional insured in such policy or to provide Lender a copy of the policy for or certificate
evidencing such insurance, but when and if requested by
Lender, the Borrower shall immediately (but no later than five (5) business days): (i) cause
all policies of such insurance to specify that Lender is an additional insured as its interests may
appear and to provide that such insurance shall not be cancellable by Borrower or the insurer
without at least 30 days advance written notice to Lender and that proceeds are payable to Lender
regardless of any act or omission of Borrower which would otherwise result in a denial of a claim;
and (ii) deliver all policies or certificates thereof (with copies of such policies) to Lender.
Borrower is authorized to receive the proceeds of any insurance loss and shall apply such proceeds
toward either the repair or replacement of the Collateral or the payment of the Obligations secured
hereby, so long as no Event of Default exists hereunder. The undersigned will also pay all taxes
and other impositions on the Collateral as well as the cost of repairs or maintenance to the
Collateral. If the undersigned fails to maintain such insurance or fails to pay any and all amounts
for taxes, repairs, maintenance and other costs, Lender may, at its option, but shall not be
required to, purchase such insurance or pay any premium owing with respect to such insurance or pay
such amounts for taxes, repairs, maintenance and other costs, and any such sum paid by Lender shall
be payable by the Borrower on demand by Lender or at its option may be added to the Obligations and
secured hereby. The loss, injury or destruction of the Collateral, with or without the fault of
Borrower, shall not release the Borrower from any liability hereunder or in any way affect
Borrower’s liability hereunder.

     The occurrence of any one or more of the following conditions or events shall constitute an
“Event of Default” hereunder: (i) any failure of any Obligor (which term shall include the Borrower
and each endorser, surety or guarantor of this Note) to pay any of the Obligations when due or to
observe or perform any agreement, covenant or promise hereunder, in any of the Loan Documents or in
any other agreement, note, instrument or certificate of

 

 

any Obligor to the Lender, now existing or
hereafter executed in connection with any of the Obligations, including, but not limited to, a loan
agreement, if applicable, and any agreement guaranteeing payment of any of the Obligations; (ii)
any default of any Obligor in the payment or performance of any other liabilities, indebtedness or
obligations to Lender or to allow or permit any other liabilities, indebtedness or obligations to
Lender to be accelerated; (iii) any failure of any Obligor to furnish Lender current financial
information within a reasonable time after receipt of a written request; (iv) any failure of any
Obligor or any Pledgor of any security interest in the Collateral (the “Pledgor”) to observe or
perform any agreement, covenant or promise contained in any agreement, instrument or certificate
executed in connection with the granting of a security interest in property to secure the
Obligations or any guaranty securing the Obligations; (v) any warranty, representation or statement
made or furnished to the Lender by or on behalf of any Obligor or Pledgor in connection with the
extension of credit evidenced by this Note proving to have been false in any material respect when
made or furnished; (vi) any sale, foreclosure of or material encumbrance to any of the Collateral,
or the making of any material levy, seizure or attachment thereof or thereon or the rendering of
any material judgment or lien or garnishment or attachment against any Obligor or Pledgor or its
Collateral property (the term “material” as used in this subparagraph (vi) shall mean that which
would materially impair the ability of Borrower to repay the Obligations when due); (vii) the
dissolution, change in control (other than a transfer of control to an affiliate of Borrower;
provided that Lender is notified in advance of said transfer and by which Lender consents to and
approves in writing and further provided that the transferee assumes the indebtedness evidenced
hereby), change of status to an organization, change of type of organization, termination of
existence, insolvency, business failure, or appointment of a receiver of any part of the property
of, assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or the commencement of any proceeding under any
bankruptcy or insolvency laws, state or federal, by or against, the Borrower or any other Obligor
or Pledgor; (viii) if Borrower, any Pledgor or any Obligor shall change its name, change its
principal residence, change its chief executive office, change its status to an organization,
change its state of organization, change its type of organization, or change its organizational
identification number, as applicable, without giving Secured Party at least thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice; (ix) the occurrence of any Discounted Payoff Rescission Event at any time during
the Discounted Payoff Time Period; (x) the occurrence of any default or Event of Default (as such
term is defined in the Related Note) under the Related Note; or (xi) any discontinuance or
termination of any guaranty of any of the Obligations by a guarantor.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (and the expiration of any applicable notice and/or
grace periods), to the extent permitted by law, the Lender at its option may terminate any
obligation to extend any additional credit or make any other financial accommodation to the
Borrower and/or may declare all of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, all without
notice or demand, and shall have in addition to and independent of the right to declare the
Obligations to be due and payable and any other rights of the Lender under this Note or any other
agreement with any Obligor or any Pledgor, the remedies of a secured party under the Code,
including, without limitation thereto, the right to take possession of the Collateral, or the
proceeds thereof and to sell or otherwise dispose thereof; and for this purpose, to sign in the
name of any Obligor or Pledgor any transfer,
conveyance or instrument necessary or appropriate in order for the Lender to sell or dispose
of any of the Collateral, and the Lender may, so far as the Borrower can give, authority
therefor, enter upon the premises on which the Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and
remove the same therefrom, without being liable in any way to any Obligor on account of entering
any premises. The Lender may require the Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make the
Collateral available to the Lender at a place to be designated by the Lender which is reasonably
convenient to both parties. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in
value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Lender shall give the Borrower
written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time after which any
private sale or other intended disposition thereof is to be. made. The requirement of
sending reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is mailed, postage prepaid, or otherwise
given, to the Borrower or Pledgor at the last address shown on the Lender’s records at least ten
(10) days before such disposition. Lender may: (i) comply with any applicable state or federal law
requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral; (ii) sell the Collateral without
giving any warranties as to the Collateral; and (iii) specifically disclaim any warranties of title
or the like and in so doing any of the foregoing will not be considered adversely to affect the
commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If any Obligation (including but not
limited to the Note) is a demand instrument, the statement of a maturity date, the requirement for
the payment of periodic interest or the recitation of defaults and the right of Lender to declare
any Obligation due and payable shall not constitute an election by Lender to waive its right to
demand payment under a demand at any time and in any event as Lender in its sole discretion may
deem appropriate.

 

 

     The rights of the Lender specified herein shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of
the Lender’s rights under the Code, or any other statute or rules of law conferring rights similar
to those conferred by the Code, and under the provisions of any Loan Documents or any other
instrument or agreement executed by the Borrower, any other Obligor or any Pledgor to the Lender.
All prior agreements to the extent inconsistent with the terms of this Note shall be construed in
accordance with the provisions hereof. Any rights or remedies of the Lender may be exercised or
taken in any order or sequence whatsoever, at the sole option of the Lender. This agreement shall
bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and assigns of
Lender and shall bind all persons who become bound as a debtor to this security agreement.

     The security agreement set forth herein and the security interest in the Collateral created
hereby shall terminate only when all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and
such payments are no longer subject to rescission, recovery or repayment upon the bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership or similar proceeding affecting the Borrower
or any other person. No waiver by the Lender of any default shall be effective unless in writing
nor operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. All
rights of the Lender hereunder shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns, and all
obligations of the Borrower shall bind the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of
the Borrower. The Borrower and each endorser, surety or guarantor of this Note, whether bound by
this or by separate instrument or agreement, shall be jointly and severally liable for the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note and hereby severally: (i) waive presentment for payment,
demand, protest, notice of nonpayment or dishonor and of protest and any and all other notices and
demands whatsoever, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; (ii) consent that at any
time, or from time to time, payment of any sum payable under this Note may be extended without
notice whether for a definite or indefinite time; and (iii) agree to remain liable until all of the
Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any impairment, substitution, release or transfer of
Collateral or any one or more Borrower or Obligor by the Lender, with or without consideration, or
of any extension, modification or renewal. No conduct of the holder shall be deemed a waiver or
release of such liability, unless the holder expressly releases such party in writing, The Borrower
shall pay to the holder on demand all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses
of legal counsel, incurred by the holder in any way arising from or relating to the enforcement or
attempted enforcement of the Note, any Loan Document and/or any related guaranty, collateral
document or other document and the collection or attempted collection, whether by litigation or
otherwise, of the Note. Time is of the essence.

     Borrower acknowledges and agrees that this Note and the Related Note are cross-collateralized;
specifically, Borrower agrees that, in the event that any of the security instruments are realized
upon, and the proceeds of such realization exceed the primary indebtedness secured thereby, the
excess proceeds shall be retained by Lender and applied to the outstanding indebtedness secured by
the other security instruments in the order of due date. Lender shall be entitled to retain all
proceeds of any realization until all indebtedness secured by either this Note, the Related Note or
any other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. Lender shall have no obligation to release
any Collateral pledged
pursuant to this Note, the Related Note or any of the other Loan Documents until the entire
indebtedness due and payable to Lender has been paid in full.

     Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Borrower shall be solely and exclusively responsible
for, and that Lender shall not have any liability, obligation or responsibility of any kind or
nature whatsoever, any discharge of indebtedness and/or cancellation of debt income that may be
asserted, charged, imposed or assessed against Borrower, by any means or authority whatsoever, by
virtue of this Note, the 2011 Assumption Agreement, any of the other Loan Document or otherwise,
including but not limited to the terms and provision contained herein in this Note relating to the
Discounted Principal Payoff Amount.

     Borrower acknowledges that Lender may reproduce by electronic means or otherwise any of the
documents evidencing and/or securing the Obligations and thereafter may destroy the original
documents. Borrower does hereby agree that any document so reproduced shall be and remain the
binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable and admissible in evidence ageing it to the same extent
as if the original documents had not been destroyed.

     This Note, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall be governed and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, except to the extent that the Code
provides for the application of other law with respect to the Collateral. No delay or omission to
exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission, or failure of performance shall
impair any such right or power, or shall such delay or omission be construed to be a waiver thereof
by the Lender. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in several

 

 

counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.

     In executing this Agreement, each of the parties hereto represents, warrants and certifies
that it has received independent legal counsel and advice from its respective attorneys with regard
to the facts involved in connection with the controversies set forth in this Agreement and subject
matter hereof, and with regard to the rights or asserted rights arising out of said controversies,
if any. In accepting the consideration referred to herein and in executing and delivering this
Agreement, each of the parties does so with the full knowledge of any and all rights which each now
has or, in the future, may have in connection with the aforementioned controversies, if any. This
Agreement shall not be construed against the drafter.

     Whenever in this Agreement reference is made to any party or other person or entity such
reference shall be deemed to include a reference to the heirs, executors, representatives,
successors, assigns, and affiliates of such party. Whenever used, the singular number shall include
the plural, the plural shall include the singular, and the use of any gender shall be applicable to
all genders. This Agreement may not be changed, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by the parties against whom the enforcement of the change, waiver,
discharge or termination is sought. This Agreement is intended to be performed in accordance with
and only to the extent permitted by all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations. If any
provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall be
invalid or unenforceable, for any reason and to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the
application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby, but
rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. The parties hereto do further
agree that the provisions contained herein constitute the entire agreement of the parties as of
this date, except as outlined by the 2011 Assumption Agreement, and that the terms hereof are
contractual and not mere recitals.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower and Lender have executed this Modification and Extension
Promissory Note and Security Agreement No. 2 under seal as of the Agreement Date and made and
agreed to be effective as of the Effective Date.

EXHIBIT

UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE

(ABRAMS POWER, INC.)

     THIS UNCONDITIONAL GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE (“Guaranty”) is made and
entered into this 9th day of March, 2011, by ABRAMS POWER, INC., a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Georgia (“Guarantor”), to and in favor of NATIONAL
LOAN INVESTORS, L.P., a Delaware Limited Partnership (hereinafter referred to as “Lender”),
having an address of 5619 North Classen Blvd., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73118.

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, Lender has agreed to make a loan and/or extend credit (hereinafter referred to as the
“Loan”) to SERVIDYNE SYSTEMS, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (hereinafter
referred to as the “Borrower”), in the amended, restated, renewed and modified amount of
ONE MILLION SEVEN THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FIFTEEN AND 49/100 DOLLARS ($1,007,215.49) (hereinafter
referred to as the “Loan Amount”); and

     WHEREAS, the obligation to repay the Loan is evidenced by (i) that certain Modification and
Extension Promissory Note and Security Agreement No. 1 of even date herewith in the original
principal face amount of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($150,000.00); and (ii) that
certain Modification and Extension Promissory Note and Security Agreement No.2 of even date
herewith in the original principal face amount of EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY-SEVEN TWO HUNDRED FIFTEEN AND
49/100 DOLLARS ($857,215.49) (each of the foregoing being hereinafter collectively referred to as
the “Note”); and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Loan Modification, Extension, Reaffirmation and Assumption
Agreement of even date herewith between and among Borrower, Lender and Guarantor (the
“Assumption Agreement”) and also as a condition to Lender’s making the Loan, Lender is
requiring that Guarantor enter into this Guaranty; and

     WHEREAS, Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Lender that the making of said Loan shall
be to the direct benefit, interest and advantage of Guarantor;

     NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of said benefit, the above-recited premises, $10.00
in hand paid and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees with Lender as follows:

     Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as for Guarantor’s own debt, until
full performance and payment have been effected: (a) the full, due and punctual payment of all
principal and interest on all indebtedness to Lender under the terms of the Note, and the payment
of all other obligations under the Note and/or the Assumption Agreement, whether in due course, by
acceleration, or otherwise, and any and all extensions, revisions, amendments, modifications,
restatements and/or renewals thereof, and under the terms of any instrument or document evidencing,
securing or relating to the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and/or the Assumption Agreement
(hereinafter, together with the Note and/or the Assumption Agreement, collectively referred to as
the “Loan Documents”), including without limitation attorneys’ fees in the amount of
fifteen percent (15%) of all principal and interest owing on the Note if collected by or through an
attorney at law; (b) the full and prompt performance of any and all obligations of Borrower to
Lender under the terms of the Loan Documents; and (c) the full, due and punctual payment of all
principal and interest on all other indebtedness owed by Borrower to Lender, however and whenever
evidenced, whether in due course, by acceleration, or otherwise, and any and all extensions,
revisions, amendments, modifications, restatements and/or renewals thereof (all of the foregoing
being hereinafter referred to as the “Obligations”).

     This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. The liability
of Guarantor hereunder shall be direct and immediate. This Guaranty shall be a guarantee as for
the own debts of Guarantor, and, accordingly, Lender shall not be obligated, before enforcing this
Guaranty against Guarantor, to take any action in any

 

 

court against Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations, to make any claim in a
liquidation or bankruptcy of Borrower or of any other guarantor of the Obligations, to make demand
of Borrower or of any other guarantor of the Obligations, or to enforce or seek to enforce any
other security held by any person with respect to the Obligations. This Guaranty shall be a
continuing security in addition to and not in substitution for any other security now or hereafter
held by or on behalf of Lender with respect to the Obligations and shall not be discharged except
by: (i) complete performance by Borrower of all of the Obligations; or (ii) full payment and
performance by Guarantor hereunder.

     Guarantor shall not be exonerated from Guarantor’s obligations hereunder by any time being
given to or by any concession or arrangement or indulgence granted to or made with Borrower or by
any delay or waiver on the part of Lender or by anything done or omitted which, but for this
provision, might operate so to exonerate Guarantor or by any invalidity, unenforceability,
limitation or the lapse of any security or evidence of indebtedness given to Lender by Borrower or
any other person. Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice
to Guarantor, and without incurring any responsibility to Guarantor, and without impairing or
releasing any of its rights, or any of the obligations of Guarantor hereunder: (a) change the
manner, place or terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of or renew or otherwise
alter the Obligations in any manner; (b) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all or any
part of any property, real or personal, by whomsoever at any time pledged, conveyed or mortgaged to
secure, or howsoever securing, the Obligations; (c) release anyone liable in any manner for the
payment or collection of the Obligations (other than Borrower); (d) exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights against Borrower and others (including any other guarantor of the
Obligations), and Guarantor hereby expressly waives any statutory right pursuant to O.C.G.A.
10-7-24 to require any holder of the Obligations to take action against Borrower; and (e) apply any
sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Obligations in such order as Lender shall
elect. Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby waives the following: (a) notice
of acceptance hereof, of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon, and of any default of
Borrower in the payment of the Obligations; (b) any presentment, demand, protest or notice thereof
or of any other kind; and (c) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or
thing which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Guarantor or which might
otherwise operate as a discharge of Guarantor. It is fully understood that until each and every
one of the covenants and agreements of this Guaranty is fully performed, Guarantor’s undertakings
hereunder shall not be released, in whole or in part, by any action or thing which might, but for
this provision of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor,
or by reason of any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance, or delay, or other act or
omission of Lender of its failure to proceed promptly or otherwise, or by reason of any action
taken or omitted by Lender, whether or not such action or failure to act varies or increases the
risk of, or affects the rights or remedies of Guarantor, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives and
surrenders any defense to the performance of Guarantor’s undertakings hereunder based upon any of
the foregoing acts, omissions, things, agreements or waivers, or any of them, it being the purpose
and intent of the parties hereto that the covenants, agreements and all undertakings hereunder are
absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable under any and all circumstances except as expressly
provided herein.

     If any default under the Note shall have occurred and be continuing and Lender or the holder
of any of the Obligations is prevented from accelerating payment thereof, Lender or such holder
shall be entitled to receive hereunder from Guarantor, upon demand therefore, the sums which
otherwise would have been due had such acceleration occurred.

     Guarantor further confirms that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time payment of principal of, or any part thereof, or interest on,
any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by Lender upon the bankruptcy of
Borrower, or otherwise. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right
which Lender may have at law or in equity against Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon failure of
Borrower to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether upon demand,
at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, Guarantor hereby promises to
and will, upon receipt of written demand by Lender, pay or cause to be paid, not later than ten
(10) days following the date of receipt of such written demand, to Lender, the respective holder of
any of the Obligations, or any party entitled thereto, in cash, an amount equal to the sum of: (i)
the unpaid principal amount of the Obligations; (ii) accrued but unpaid interest on such
Obligations; and (iii) any and all other sums due and then owing under the Obligations. All sums
payable by Guarantor hereunder, whether of principal, interest, fees, expenses, premiums or
otherwise, shall be paid in full, without setoff, counterclaim, deduction, or withholding
whatsoever, or, in the event that Guarantor is required by law to make any such deduction or
withholding, Guarantor shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to Lender such amount as will
result in the receipt by Lender of the full amount due Lender hereunder.

 

 

     In addition, Guarantor further agrees to pay all costs and expenses paid or incurred by or on
behalf of Lender in (i) collecting any and all sums owing under this Guaranty including without
limitation attorneys’ fees in the amount of fifteen percent (15%) of all sums due and payable under
this Guaranty; (ii) enforcing this Guaranty and the representations, covenants and agreements of
Guarantor set forth herein; and (iii) enforcing its rights under the security given by Guarantor
for this Guaranty and under any security given by the Borrower or any other guarantor relating to
the Obligations. Any and all sums owing hereunder shall, from their due date, bear interest at the
default rate of interest set forth in the Note until paid in full.

     This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor’s heirs, legal representatives,
successors, and permitted assigns. Each reference herein to Lender shall be deemed to include its
successors and assigns (including, but not by way of limitation, any holder of the Obligations) in
whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty shall also inure. In the event that any term of
provision hereof shall conflict with any term or provision of the Loan Documents, the term or
provision hereof shall control. Words herein importing the masculine shall include the feminine
and neuter genders, and words herein importing persons shall include legal entities, and the
singular shall include the plural, and vice versa, all as the context shall require. If more than
one person or entity constitutes Guarantor, all of the provisions hereof shall be construed to
refer to each such person or entity, individually and collectively. Each such person or entity
comprising Guarantor shall in all respects be jointly and severally liable and obligated to Lender
hereunder. This Guaranty may not be amended except in writing signed by Lender and Guarantor.
This Guaranty may not be changed orally, and no obligation of Guarantor can be released or waived
by Lender or any officer or agent of Lender, except in the writing signed by a duly authorized
officer of Lender. This Guaranty shall be irrevocable by Guarantor until all obligations
guaranteed hereby have been completely performed or until Guarantor has been released in writing by
Lender. In case any provision in this Guaranty shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby, and to the fullest extent allowed by law there shall be deemed
substituted for the offending provision or provisions valid, legal, and enforceable provision or
provisions as similar as possible to the offending provision.

     Guarantor hereby authorizes Lender, without notice to Guarantor, to apply all payments and
credits received from Borrower or from Guarantor or realized from any security in such manner and
in such priority as Lender in its sole judgment shall see fit to the Obligations.

     Guarantor warrants and represents to Lender that all financial statements heretofore delivered
by Guarantor to Lender are true and correct in all respects as of the date hereof.

     Furthermore, Guarantor shall comply with and perform all covenants, conditions, and agreements
on Guarantor’s part to be performed under the Loan Documents.

     Guarantor acknowledges that this Guaranty, the Note, and all other Loan Documents were
executed and/or delivered in the State of Georgia and shall be governed and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Georgia, notwithstanding any conflicts of law rules or principles
that might refer construction of any provision hereof to the laws of another jurisdiction.

     Guarantor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of Georgia for the enforcement
of this Guaranty and waives any and all personal rights under the laws of the State of Georgia or
the United States to object to jurisdiction within the State of Georgia for the purposes of
litigation to enforce this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor
hereby submits to service of process, to venue, and to personal jurisdiction in the State Court of
Cobb County, Georgia, the Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia, or the United States District
Court, Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division, and waives all rights Guarantor might have
to make objections to lack of personal jurisdiction or lack of venue in all of said Courts.

     Guarantor hereby knowingly, irrevocably, and unconditionally waives any right to a trial by
jury in any action (whether sounding in contract, tort, or otherwise) to enforce or defend any
matter arising from or relating in any way to this Guaranty or any other document or agreement
evidencing or relating to the Loan, whether any such right is now or hereafter existing.

     The books and records of Lender showing the account between Lender and Borrower shall be
admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding hereon as a prima facie proof of
the items set forth therein.

 

 

     Any notice or demand which by any provision of this Guaranty is required or permitted to be
given to Guarantor shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes by
being delivered personally or by being mailed via Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, postage
prepaid, to Guarantor at the address of Guarantor set forth at the end of this Guaranty, or at such
other address as shall have been designated by like written notice to Lender.

     Until payment in full by Guarantor of any and all sums owing to Lender hereunder, all rights
of Guarantor against Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of subrogation or otherwise shall
in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in
full of all the Obligations. Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness of Borrower
now or hereafter owed to Guarantor and subordinates any and all security held by Guarantor to the
Loan and to all security held by Lender. Guarantor agrees with Lender that Guarantor shall not
demand or accept any payment of principal or interest from Borrower, shall not claim any offset or
other reduction of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not
take any action to obtain a superior interest to Lender in any of the security for the Loan;
provided, however that if Lender so requests, such indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and
received by Guarantor as trustee for Lender and be paid over to Lender on account of the
indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability
of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

     If from any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provisions of this Guaranty, at the
time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity
presently prescribed by any applicable usury statute or any other applicable law, with regard to
obligations of like character and amount, then ipso facto the obligation to be fulfilled
shall be reduced to the limit of such validity. The provisions of this paragraph shall control
every other provision of this Guaranty.

     This Guaranty is assignable by Lender without notice to or consent of Guarantor, and any
assignment hereof by Lender shall operate to vest in such assignee all rights and powers herein
conferred upon and granted to Lender. This Guaranty is not assignable by Guarantor.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Guarantor, acting by and through its duly authorized officer, member, or
manager, has signed and sealed this Guaranty the day and year first above written.
