Generally.  The rights of the Lender under this agreement and the other Related Documents are in addition to other rights (including without limitation, other rights of setoff) the Lender may have contractually, by law, in equity or otherwise, all of which are cumulative and hereby retained by the Lender.

C.  

	
Lender’s Right of Setoff.  The Borrower grants to the Lender a Lien in the Deposits, and the Lender is authorized to setoff and apply, all Deposits, Securities and Other Property, and Lender Debt against any and all Liabilities.  This right of setoff may be exercised at any time from time to time after the occurrence of any default, without prior notice to or demand on the Borrower and regardless of whether any Liabilities are contingent, unmatured or unliquidated. In this paragraph: (a) the term “Deposits” means any and all accounts and deposits of the Borrower (whether general, special, time, demand, provisional or final) at any time held by the Senior Lender (including all Deposits held jointly with another, but excluding any IRA or Keogh Deposits, or any trust Deposits in which a security interest would be prohibited by any Legal Requirement); (b) the term “Securities and Other Property” means any and all securities and other personal Property of the Borrower in the custody, possession or control of the Senior Lender, JPMorgan Chase & Co. or their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates (other than Property held by the Senior Lender in a fiduciary capacity); and (c) the term “Lender Debt” means all indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender, to or for the credit or account of the Borrower and any claim of the Borrower (whether individual, joint and several or otherwise) against the Lender now or hereafter existing.

8.2  

	
No Waiver.  No delay on the part of the Lender in the exercise of any right or remedy waives that right or remedy.  No single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy precludes any other future exercise of it or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The making of an advance during the existence of any default or subsequent to the occurrence of a default or when all conditions precedent have not been met shall not constitute a waiver of the default or condition precedent.  No waiver or indulgence by the Lender of any default is effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Lender, nor shall a waiver on one occasion bar or waive that right on any future occasion.

 

	
8.3  

	
Integration; Severability.  This agreement, the Notes, and the other Related Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Borrower and the Lender and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to their subject matter.  If any one or more of the obligations of the Borrower under this agreement, the Notes, or the other Related Documents or any provision thereof is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of the Borrower and the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired; and the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such obligations or provisions in any other jurisdiction.

The indemnification provided for in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this agreement and shall not be affected by the presence, absence or amount of or the payment or nonpayment of any claim under, any insurance.

 

	
8.9

Line of Credit Note

 

$5,000,000.00

Date:  September 18, 2013

Promise to Pay.  On or before September 18, 2014 (the "Maturity Date"), for value received, SkyMall, LLC (the “Borrower”) promises to pay to SMXE Lending, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, whose address is 2525 East Camelback Road, Suite 850, Phoenix, AZ 85016 (the “Lender”) or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the sum of Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or so much thereof as may be advanced and outstanding, plus interest on the unpaid principal balance computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days at the “Adjusted LIBOR Rate” (the “Note Rate”) and at the rate of 2.00% Per Annum above the Note Rate, upon the occurrence of any default under this Note, whether or not the Lender elects to accelerate the maturity of this Note, from the date of such default.

 

Definitions.  As used in this Note, the following terms have the following respective meanings:

 

“Adjusted LIBOR Rate” means, with respect to the relevant Interest Period, the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin plus (ii) the LIBOR Rate applicable to such Interest Period.

 

“Applicable Margin” means 4.50% Per Annum.

 

“Business Day” means a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks generally are open in Arizona and New York for the conduct of substantially all of their commercial lending activities and on which dealings in United States dollars are carried on in the London interbank market.

 

“Interest Period” means each consecutive one month period, the first of which shall commence on the date of this Note, ending on the day which corresponds numerically to such date one (1) month thereafter, provided, however, that if there is no such numerically corresponding day in such first succeeding month, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such first succeeding month.  If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day, provided, however, that if said next succeeding Business Day falls in a new calendar month, such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

“LIBOR Rate” means with respect to any LIBOR advance for any Interest Period, the interest rate determined by the Lender by reference to Reuters Screen LIBOR01, formerly known as Page 3750 of the Moneyline Telerate Service (together with any successor or substitute, the “Service”) or any successor or substitute page of the Service providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such page of the Service, as determined by the Lender from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market, to be the rate at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time, two Business Days prior  to the commencement of the Interest Period for dollar deposits with a maturity equal to such Interest Period.  If no LIBOR Rate is available to the Lender, the applicable LIBOR Rate for the relevant Interest Period shall instead be the rate determined by the Lender to be the rate at which the JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. offers to place U.S. dollar deposits having a maturity equal to such Interest Period with first-class banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period.

If any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to the Lender) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by the Lender with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Lender to maintain or fund the advances evidenced by this Note, then, upon notice to the Borrower by the Lender, the outstanding principal amount, together with accrued interest and any other amounts payable to the Lender under this Note or the Related Documents shall be repaid (a) immediately upon the Lender’s demand if such change or compliance with such requests, in the Lender’s judgment, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

 

If the Lender determines that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate are not being provided for purposes of determining the interest rate as provided in this Note, then the Lender shall, at the Lender’s option, give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower, whereupon (i) the obligation of the Lender to make advances evidenced by this Note shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to the suspension no longer exists, and (ii) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each advance evidenced by this Note, together with accrued interest, on the last day of the then current Interest Period.

 

In no event shall the interest rate exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Any interest payment that would for any reason be unlawful under applicable law shall be applied to principal.

 

The Borrower hereby agrees to pay an effective rate of interest that is the sum of the interest rate provided for in this Note together with any additional rate of interest resulting from any other charges of interest or in the nature of interest paid or to be paid in connection with this Note or the Related Documents.

 

Interest will be computed on the unpaid principal balance from the date of each borrowing.

 

Until the Maturity Date, the Borrower will pay consecutive monthly installments of interest only commencing October 18, 2013.  On the Maturity Date, all outstanding principal and accrued interest hereunder shall be due and payable

 

The Borrower shall make all payments on this Note and the other Related Documents, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, to the Lender at the Lender’s address above or at such other place as the Lender may designate in writing. If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day.  Payments shall be allocated among principal, interest and fees at the discretion of the Lender unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law.
