Item 1.01. Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 28, 2013, First Internet Bancorp (the “Company”) entered into a Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement with Community BanCapital, L.P. (the “Lender”). The purchase agreement provides the Company with a loan of $3,000,000 in the form of subordinated debt. The loan is evidenced by a subordinated debenture in the principal amount of $3,000,000, which bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 8.00% and is scheduled to mature on June 28, 2021; however, the Company can repay the loan without premium or penalty at any time after June 28, 2016. The debenture is expected to qualify for treatment as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The purchase agreement and the debenture contain customary subordination provisions and events of default; however the right of the Lender to accelerate the payment of the debenture is limited to bankruptcy or insolvency.

 

As partial inducement for the Lender to enter into the purchase agreement, the Company issued to the Lender a warrant to purchase up to 48,750 shares of its common stock, no par value, at an initial per share exercise price equal to $19.33.

 

The warrant will become exercisable on June 28, 2014, and, unless previously exercised, will expire on June 28, 2021. The Company has the right to force an exercise of the warrant after the debenture has been repaid in full if the 20-day volume-weighted average price of a share of its common stock exceeds $30.00.

 

In addition, on June 28, 2013 the Company entered into a separate arrangement pursuant to which, at the Company’s option, the Lender has committed to provide an additional $3,000,000 loan on or before December 31, 2013 under terms and conditions substantially similar to those contained in the purchase agreement.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the purchase agreement, debenture and warrant are qualified by reference to the full text of each document, copies of which are filed with this current report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 4.1, respectively.

The period during which the Holder of this Warrant may exercise this Warrant is referred to herein as (the “ Exercise Period ”).

 

Section 3.          Exercise of Warrant .

 

(a)            Exercise Procedure. This Warrant may be exercised from time to time on any Business Day during the Exercise Period, for all or any part of the unexercised Warrant Shares, upon:

 

(i)              surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices (or an indemnification undertaking in form and substance satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction), together with an Exercise Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, an “ Exercise Agreement ”), duly completed (including specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased) and executed; and

 

(ii)            payment to the Company of the Aggregate Exercise Price in accordance with Section 3(b) .

 

(b)            Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price. Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made, at the option of the Holder as expressed in the Exercise Agreement, by the following methods:

 

(i)              by delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price;

 

3
 

 

 

(ii)            by instructing the Company to withhold a number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price;

 

(iii)           by surrendering to the Company: Warrant Shares (or other shares of Common Stock) previously acquired by the Holder with an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the Exercise Date equal to such Aggregate Exercise Price; or

 

(iv)          any combination of the foregoing.

 

In the event of any withholding of Warrant Shares or surrender of other equity securities pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above where the number of shares whose value is equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price is not a whole number, the number of shares withheld by or surrendered to the Company shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Holder (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) based on the incremental fraction of a share being so withheld by or surrendered to the Company in an amount equal to the product of: (x) such incremental fraction of a share being so withheld or surrendered; multiplied by (y) in the case of Common Stock, the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share as of the Exercise Date, and, in all other cases, the value thereof as of the Exercise Date determined in accordance with clause (iii)(y) above.

 

(c)            Delivery of Stock Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company of the Exercise Agreement, surrender of this Warrant and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (in accordance with Section 3(a)) , the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided in Section 3(d) . The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall bear such legends as the Company may require under applicable securities laws and shall be, to the extent possible, in such denomination or denominations as the exercising the Holder shall reasonably request in the Exercise Agreement and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or, subject to compliance with Section 6 , such other Person’s name as shall be designated in the Exercise Agreement. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates of Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the Exercise Date.

 

(d)            Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional Warrant Share upon exercise of any Warrant. As to any fraction of a Warrant Share that the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay to such Holder an amount in cash (by delivery of a certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds) equal to the product of: (i) such fraction; multiplied by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share on the Exercise Date.

 

(e)            Delivery of New Warrant. Unless the purchase rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully exercised, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares being issued in accordance with Section 3(c) , deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unexpired and unexercised Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.

 

(f)             Valid Issuance of Warrant and Warrant Shares; Payment of Taxes. With respect to the exercise of this warrant, the Company hereby represents, covenants and agrees:

(ii)            All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance against receipt of the Exercise Price, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such Warrant Shares are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any pre-emptive or similar rights of any stockholder of the Company and free and clear of all taxes, liens and charges.

 

4
 

 

 

(iii)           The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all such Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

 

(iv)          The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares are listed at the time of such exercise.

 

(v)            The Company shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided , that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed with respect to any applicable withholding or the issuance or delivery of the Warrant Shares to any Person other than the Holder, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

(g)            Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a Change in Control, such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such Change in Control, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

 

(h)            Reservation of Shares. During the Exercise Period, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock or other securities constituting Warrant Shares, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the par value per Warrant Share shall at all times be less than or equal to the applicable Exercise Price. Unless required by law or governmental authority, the Company shall not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(i)              Forced Exercise. If at any time during the Exercise Period, (x) the Company has paid to the holder of the Subordinated Debenture (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) the outstanding principal balance, plus all accrued but unpaid interest, thereon, and any other amounts due and payable by the Company under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and (y) the VWAP is Thirty Dollars ($30.00) or higher (the “ Target VWAP ”), the Company may notify the Holder in writing of the Target VWAP and the Company’s intent to cancel the Warrant in exchange for a cash payment to the Holder if the Holder fails to exercise the Warrant as provided in Section 3(a) (the “ VWAP Notice ”). Thereafter, the Holder shall have fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of its receipt of the VWAP Notice (the “ VWAP Deadline ”) to exercise the Warrant in the manner provided in this Section. If the Holder fails to exercise the Warrant on or prior to the VWAP Deadline, then the Company shall pay to the Holder, by no later than two (2) Business Days after the VWAP Deadline, and in immediately available funds, an amount in cash equal to the product of (1) Thirty Dollars ($30.00) less the Exercise Price, multiplied by (2) the number of unexercised Warrant Shares. After such payment is made by the Company, the Warrant shall automatically be cancelled and the Holder shall have no further rights hereunder.

 

Section 4.          Adjustment to Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares . In order to prevent dilution of the purchase rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 4 .

 

(a)            Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date and before the Expiration Date: (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Company payable in shares of Common Stock or in Options or Convertible Securities; or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 4(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

5
 

 

 

(b)            Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger. In the event of any: (i) capital reorganization of the Company; (ii) reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares); (iii) consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person; (iv) sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person; or (v) other similar transaction (other than any such transaction covered by Section 4(a) ), in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, each Warrant shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Warrant Shares then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made with respect to the Holder’s rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Section 4 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant (including, in the case of any consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction in which the successor or purchasing Person is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment in the Exercise Price to the value per share for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise, if the value so reflected is less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction). The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales or similar transactions. The Company shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4(b) , the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights contained in Section 3 instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 4(b) with respect to this Warrant.

 

(c)            Certain Events. If any event of the type described in or contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features (other than an Excluded Issuance)) occurs, then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 4 ; provided , that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(c) shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 4 .

 

6
 

 

 

(d)            Certificate as to Adjustment .

 

(i)              As promptly as reasonably practicable following any adjustment of the Exercise Price, but in any event not later than forty-five (45) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer setting forth in reasonable detail such adjustment and the facts upon which it is based and certifying the calculation thereof.

 

(ii)            As promptly as reasonably practicable following the receipt by the Company of a written request by the Holder, but in any event not later than forty-five (45) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate of an executive officer certifying the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares or the amount, if any, of other shares of stock, securities or assets then issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

 

(e)            Notices. In the event:

 

(i)              that the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, to vote at a meeting (or by written consent), to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other security; or

 

(ii)            of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person; or

 

(iii)           of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

 

then, and in each such case, the Company shall send or cause to be sent to the Holder at least sixty (60) days prior to the applicable record date or the applicable expected effective date, as the case may be, for the event, a written notice specifying, as the case may be: (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action, and a description of such dividend, distribution or other right or action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent; or (B) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken with respect to which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon exercise of the Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares.

 

(f)             Exceptions to Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, there shall be no adjustment to the Exercise Price upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to any Excluded Issuance.

 

Section 5.          Purchase Rights . In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 4 , if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any shares of Common Stock, Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of Common Stock (the “ Purchase Rights ”), then the Holder shall be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder would have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Holder shall not be entitled to the Purchase Rights granted herein with respect to any Excluded Issuance.

Section 3.1.1 Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets .

Section 5.1 Release; Indemnification . Borrower hereby releases Lender from any and all causes of action, claims or rights which Borrower may now or hereafter have for, or which may arise from, any loss or damage caused by or resulting from: (a) any failure of Lender to protect, enforce or collect in whole or in part any of the Subordinated Debt and (b) any other act or omission to act on the part of Lender, its officers, agents or employees, except in each instance for willful misconduct or gross negligence, and except for any breach by Lender of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender and its Affiliates harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, claims, fines, demands, litigation, defenses, costs, judgments, suits, proceedings, actual damages, disbursements or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) which may at any time be either directly or indirectly imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against Lender or any of Lender’s Affiliates in connection with, arising from or relating to Lender’s entering into or carrying out the terms of this Agreement or being the holder of any Subordinated Debenture, but not including any portion of such loss, liability, damage, suit, claim, expense, fees or costs that is primarily attributable to Lender’s or any of Lender’s Affiliates’ willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

Section 5.2 Assignment and Participation . Lender may pledge or otherwise hypothecate all or any portion of this Agreement or grant participations herein ( provided , that Lender acts as agent for any participants, except as provided below) or in any of its rights and security hereunder. Lender may also assign all or any part of the Subordinated Debt and Lender’s obligations in connection therewith to one or more commercial banks or other financial institutions or investors, but such assignment shall be permitted only with the prior written consent of Borrower, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower shall at all times be entitled to make payments of principal and interest on the Subordinated Debt as provided in Section 1.5.2 of this Agreement and shall have no duty to inquire as to any different location or manner of payment, and if Borrower makes payment in accordance with such section, it shall not be required to take any further action, notwithstanding any assignment by Lender of its rights hereunder or the Subordinated Debt.

 

Section 5.3 Prohibition on Assignment by Borrower . Borrower shall not assign or attempt to assign its rights under this Agreement, except by operation of law.

 

Section 5.4 Time of the Essence . Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

 

Section 5.5 No Waiver . No waiver of any term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement herein contained shall be effective unless set forth in a writing signed by Lender, and any such waiver shall be effective only to the extent set forth in such writing. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising, by Lender or any holder of any Subordinated Debenture, of 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 preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy provided by law. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice or demand on Borrower in any case shall, in itself, entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by Lender to or of any breach or default by Borrower in the performance of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance of the same or any other obligations of Borrower hereunder. Failure on the part of Lender to complain of any acts or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies on account of any breach or default by Borrower.

 

Section 5.6 Severability . Any provision of this Agreement which is unenforceable or invalid or contrary to law, or the inclusion of which would adversely affect the validity, legality or enforcement of this Agreement, shall be of no effect and, in such case, all the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall subsist and be fully effective according to the tenor of this Agreement the same as though any such invalid portion had never been included herein. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if any provisions of this Agreement or the application thereof are held invalid or unenforceable only as to particular Persons or situations, the remainder of this Agreement, and the application of such provision to Persons or situations other than those to which it shall have been held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, but shall continue valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the primary federal regulator of Borrower determines that any provision in Section 3 , Section 4.1.1 or Section 4.1.2 would have the effect of causing the Subordinated Debenture to not constitute Tier 2 Capital of Borrower in accordance with the regulations and other guidance of such regulator published as of the date of this Agreement, then any such provision shall be deemed modified only to the minimum extent required for the Subordinated Debenture to constitute Tier 2 Capital of Borrower in accordance with such regulations and guidance. The immediately preceding sentence shall be construed in a manner that protects the interests of Lender to the maximum extent, while permitting the Subordinated Debenture to qualify as Tier 2 Capital in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other Transaction Documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto , the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois, and if for any reason whatsoever, Lender shall ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such interest shall be applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments of the indebtedness to Lender and not to the payment of interest. To the extent that Lender received any payment on account of Borrower’s Liabilities and any such payment(s) and/or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, subordinated and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment(s) or proceeds received, Borrower’s Liabilities or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect, as if such payment(s) and/or proceeds had not been received by Lender and applied on account of Borrower’s Liabilities; provided, however , if Lender successfully contests any such invalidation, declaration, set aside, subordination or other order to pay any such payment and/or proceeds to any third party, the revived Borrower’s Liabilities shall be deemed satisfied.

This Subordinated Debenture is issued in accordance with, and shall be governed by the terms of, that certain Subordinated Debenture Purchase Agreement of even date herewith entered into between Borrower and Lender (the “ Purchase Agreement ”). Unless otherwise indicated herein, terms defined in the Purchase Agreement shall have the same meaning when used herein

 

All accrued interest and unpaid principal due and payable under this Subordinated Debenture shall be paid in full on or before the Maturity Date.

 

The unpaid principal amount outstanding under this Subordinated Debenture from time to time shall bear interest before maturity in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, computed on the basis of a 365-day year and charged for actual days elapsed. Under certain circumstances as provided in the Purchase Agreement, overdue interest payments under this Subordinated Debenture shall bear interest from the due date thereof until paid at a daily rate equal to the Default Rate of interest, computed on the basis of a 365-day year and charged for actual days elapsed, except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement.

 

Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each payment in respect of the Subordinated Debenture. Whenever any payment to be made under this Subordinated Debenture shall be due on a day that is other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest due upon this Subordinated Debenture.

 

There shall be no penalties or other charges payable by Borrower to Lender hereunder other than those payments expressly described in the Purchase Agreement.
