FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and intending to be legally bound, SAKER AVIATION SERVICES, INC. (“Borrower”), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada, with its principal place of business at 20 South Street, Pier 6 East River, New York, NY 10004 (“Borrower”), promises to pay to KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association with a banking office at 731 Chestnut Street, Emmaus PA 18049 (“Lender”) or order, on DEMAND, in immediately available funds, the lesser of the principal sum of One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all advances made by Lender to Borrower from time to time hereunder as may be entered on Lender’s books and records, together with interest thereon until paid in full. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement (as defined herein).

 

1.     REVOLVING CREDIT. This Note evidences an arrangement whereby Borrower may, at Lender’s discretion, borrow, pay, reborrow and repay the principal of this Note (each a “Loan”) up to the face amount of this Note. The aggregate amount of the Loans outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the face amount of this Note. 

 

2.     REQUEST FOR LOANS. Lender, at its option, may set a cutoff time for advances made hereunder (each a “Loan”) after which all requests for Loans will be treated as having been requested on the next succeeding Business Day. Each request for a Loan shall constitute, both when made and when honored, a representation and warranty by Borrower that Borrower is entitled to obtain such Loan. Lender may treat as made by Borrower and rely upon, and Borrower shall be bound by, any request that Lender in good faith believes to be valid and to have been made in the name or on behalf of Borrower by any officer of Borrower or other authorized party, and Lender will not incur any liability to Borrower or any other person as a direct or indirect result of making such Loan. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of Loans under this Note shall not exceed the face amount of this Note. Lender may, in its sole discretion, make an advance to Borrower upon oral request; provided, however, that such requests must be followed promptly by Borrower’s written confirmation. Each request shall be conclusively presumed to have been made by a person authorized by Borrower to do so, and any credit by Lender of a Loan to or for the account of Borrower shall conclusively establish Borrower’s obligation to repay same. Lender shall incur no liability of any kind to any party by reason of making an advance upon an oral request.

 

3.     INTEREST RATE. (a) Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a per annum rate equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the “LIBOR Rate Option”); provided, however, that following demand by Lender of repayment of sums due hereunder or upon the occurrence of conditions hereafter described in this section, Lender may notify Borrower that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate is not available and the Loans will bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate. 

 

For purposes hereof, the following definitions shall apply:

 

“Adjusted LIBOR Rate” means for any LIBOR Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the rate obtained by dividing (x) the LIBOR Rate for such LIBOR Interest Period by (y) a percentage equal to one hundred percent (100%) minus the Reserve Percentage for such LIBOR Interest Period, and (b) the LIBOR Margin.

 

“Adjusted Prime Rate” means an interest rate per annum equal to the sum of the Prime Rate plus one and three quarters percent (1.75%). In the event of any change in the Prime Rate, the Adjusted Prime Rate shall be adjusted to immediately correspond with each such change.

 

“LIBOR Business Day” means a day on which (a) banks are not required or authorized to close in Cleveland, Ohio or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and (b) dealings are carried on in the London interbank eurodollar market.

 

“LIBOR Interest Period” means the period commencing on the date a Loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate is made, continued, or converted and continuing overnight, with successive periods commencing daily thereafter.

 

“LIBOR Margin” means two and three quarters percent percent (2.75%) per annum. 

 

“LIBOR Rate” means the average rate per annum calculated by Lender in good faith, which Lender determines with reference to the rate per annum (rounded upwards to the next higher whole multiple of 1/16th if such rate is not such a multiple) as shown in Reuters at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by prime banks in the London interbank eurodollar market two LIBOR Business Days prior to the day on which such rate is calculated by Lender, in an amount approximately equal to the amount of such advance and with a maturity equal to the applicable LIBOR Interest Period. In the event that the LIBOR Rate is determined to be less than zero, such LIBOR Rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Note. If Reuters no longer reports such rate or Lender determines in good faith that the rate so reported no longer accurately reflects the rate available to Lender in the London Interbank Market, Lender may select a replacement index, but under no circumstances shall the LIBOR Rate be less than zero percent (0%).

 

 

 

 

“Prime Rate” means the rate per annum from time to time established by Lender as Lender’s Prime Rate, whether or not such rate is publicly announced. The Prime Rate may not be the lowest interest rate charged by Lender for commercial or other extensions of credit. In the event of any change in the Prime Rate, the rate of interest applicable to Borrower’s Loans evidenced hereby shall be adjusted to immediately correspond with each such change. 

 

“Reserve Percentage” means for any LIBOR Interest Period, the maximum reserve percentage which is specified by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) or any other governmental or quasi-governmental authority with jurisdiction over Lender for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including, but not limited to, any basic, supplemental, special, marginal, or emergency reserve requirement) for Lender with respect to liabilities or assets constituting or including (among other liabilities) “Eurocurrency liabilities” (as defined in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) in an amount equal to that of the advances affected by such LIBOR Interest Period and with a maturity equal to the LIBOR Interest Period.

 

(b)     Borrower may exercise the LIBOR Rate Option by giving Lender irrevocable written notice of such exercise on the second LIBOR Business Day prior to the proposed commencement of the relevant LIBOR Interest Period. The Loan will bear interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for consecutive LIBOR Interest Periods until a different election is made. Borrower may only request advances bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate in amounts equal to or in excess of $100,000.00 unless otherwise agreed by Lender.

 

(c)     If, because of the introduction of or any change in, or because of any judicial, administrative or other governmental interpretation of, any law or regulation, there shall be any increase in the cost to Lender of making, funding, maintaining, or allocating capital to any advance bearing interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, including a change in the Reserve Percentage, then Borrower shall, from time to time upon demand by Lender, pay to Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such increased cost, and the determination by Lender shall be conclusive absent obvious error and shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon Lender’s demand.

 

(d)     If Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error) that (i) dollar deposits in an amount approximately equal to the portion of the advances for which Borrower has exercised the LIBOR Rate Option for the designated LIBOR Interest Period are not generally available at such time in the London Interbank Market for deposits in dollars, (ii) the rate at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of maintaining an Adjusted LIBOR Rate on such portion of the advances or of funding the same for such LIBOR Interest Period due to circumstances affecting the London Interbank Market generally, (iii) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, or (iv) an Adjusted LIBOR Rate would be in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower may by law pay, then, in any such event, Lender shall so notify Borrower and all portions of the advances bearing interest at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate that are so affected shall, as of the date of such notification with respect to any event described in item (ii) or (iv) above, or as of the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period with respect to an event described in item (i) or (iii) above, bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate until such time as the situations described herein are no longer in effect.

 

(e)     If, because of the introduction of or any change in, or because of any judicial, administrative or other governmental interpretation of, any law or regulation, it becomes unlawful for Lender to make, fund, or maintain any Loan at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, then (i) Lender shall notify Borrower that Lender is no longer able to maintain the interest rate at an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, (ii) the LIBOR Rate Option shall immediately terminate, and (iii) the interest rate for any portion of the Loans for which the interest rate is then an Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall automatically be converted to the Adjusted Prime Rate. Thereafter, all advances under this Note shall bear interest at the Adjusted Prime Rate until such time as the situation described herein is no longer in effect.

 

(f)     All computations of interest and unpaid fees shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days of each year elapsed; that is, by multiplying the outstanding principal balance by the applicable interest rate, dividing by 360 days, and multiplying by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. This method of computation results in a higher interest yield to Lender than if a 365-day year were used. 

 

(g)     If pursuant to the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time obligated to pay interest on the principal balance of this Note at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable law, the applicable interest rate shall be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder and Borrower and any guarantor shall not have any action against Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of excess interest or charges.

 

- 2 -

 

 

(h)     Lender shall not be required to notify Borrower of any adjustment in the LIBOR Rate; however, Borrower may request a quote of the prevailing LIBOR Rate on any Business Day. 

 

(i)     Upon demand by Lender of any amounts hereunder, without notice, interest shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the aggregate of three percent (3%) plus the rate otherwise applicable, and such rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. 

 

4.     PAYMENTS. Commencing April 1, 2018 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each consecutive month, Borrower shall pay accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding balance of this Note in arrears until all amounts due hereunder are paid in full. Upon demand or the earlier acceleration of this Note, Borrower shall pay the entire principal balance, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees. Borrower may prepay all or any part of the unpaid principal balance of this Note at any time, without premium or penalty. 

 

5.     APPLICATION; BUSINESS DAY. Borrower shall make all payments on this Note to Lender at its address stated above, or at such other place as the holder of this Note may designate. All payments shall be made to Lender, in immediately available funds, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived. All payments are payable on the day when due and shall be made, absolutely net of, without deduction or offset and free and clear of taxes, deductions, charges or withholding of any kind. Lender shall apply all payments received on this Note to any accrued and unpaid interest then due and owing, to the reduction of principal of this Note, and to other sums due hereunder, in such order and in such amounts as Lender may determine from time to time. The sum or sums shown on Lender’s records shall be evidence of the correct unpaid balances of principal and interest on this Note, absent manifest error. Lender is authorized to complete all blank spaces in this Note. 

 

Except as otherwise set forth herein, if any payment comes due on a day that is not a Business Day, Borrower may make the payment on the first Business Day following the payment date and pay the additional interest accrued to the date of payment.

 

6.     FEES.

 

(a)     Late Payment Fee. If any payment due under this Note is not made within ten (10) days after its due date, Borrower shall pay, in addition to any other sums due under this Note (and without limiting Lender’s other remedies on account thereof), a late fee in an amount equal to the greater of five percent (5%) of the amount unpaid or $25.00.

 

(b)     Annual Fee. On the date of this Note and on each aniversary of closing, Borrower shall pay a fee on the actual daily unborrowed portion of Borrower’s line of credit hereunder as determnied by Lender, at the rate of one percent (1.00%) per annum (using a day rate based upon a year of 360 days and charged for the actual numer of days elapsed).

 

7.     DEMAND NOTE. This Note is payable upon demand, whether or not there is a default. Borrower understands and agrees that Lender is authorized to make an annual (or more frequent) credit review of Borrower based on Borrower’s current financial condition.

The Borrower agrees to pay, upon demand, costs of collection of all amounts under this Note including, without limitation, principal and interest, or in connection with the enforcement of, or realization on, any security for this Note, including, without limitation, to the extent permitted by applicable law, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

10.   SETOFF. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if the unpaid principal amount of this Note, interest accrued on the unpaid principal amount thereof or other amount owing by Borrower under this Note or the other Loan Documents shall have become due and payable (upon demand, by acceleration or otherwise), Lender will have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, without notice to Borrower, to setoff against and to appropriate and apply to such due and payable amounts any obligations owing to, and any other funds held in any manner for the account of, Borrower by Lender or any third party acting on Lender’s behalf (“Bank Affiliate”), including, without limitation, all cash, securities, instruments or other property of Borrower in the possession of Lender or any Bank Affiliate, whether for safekeeping or otherwise, or in the transit to or from Lender or any Bank Affiliate (regardless of the reason Lender or Bank Affiliate had received the same or whether Lender or Bank Affiliate has conditionally released the same).

Borrower consents to and confirms the foregoing arrangements and confirms the rights of banker’s lien and setoff.
