SECTION 1. The Term Loan. On the terms and conditions set forth in the MLA and this Promissory Note and Supplement, CoBank agrees to make a loan to the Company in an amount not to exceed $14,550,000.00 (the “Commitment”). The Commitment shall expire at 12:00 noon (Company’s local time) on March 15, 2013, or on such later date as CoBank may, in its sole discretion, authorize in writing.

SECTION 2. Purpose. The purpose of the Commitment is to refinance existing bond debt of the Company issued through the Connecticut Development Authority (“CDA”) and identified on Exhibit A hereto (individually or collectively, the “Existing Debt”).

SECTION 3. Availability. Notwithstanding Section 2 of the MLA and provided that each of the conditions precedent set forth herein and in the MLA have been satisfied, the loan will be made available to the Company on a date to be agreed upon by the parties (the “Closing Date”). The loan will be made available in a single advance by CoBank wire transferring the proceeds of the loan to CDA.

SECTION 4. Interest. The Company agrees to pay interest on the unpaid balance of the loan(s) in accordance with one or more of the following interest rate options, as selected by the Company:

(A) Weekly Quoted Variable Rate. At a rate per annum equal at all times to the rate of interest established by CoBank on the first Business Day of each week. The rate established by CoBank shall be effective until the first Business Day of the next week. Each change in the rate shall be applicable to all balances subject to this option and information about the then current rate shall be made available upon telephonic request.

(B) Quoted Rate Option. At a fixed rate per annum to be quoted by CoBank in its sole discretion in each instance. Under this option, rates may be fixed on such balances and for such periods, as may be agreeable to CoBank in its sole discretion in each instance, provided that: (1) the minimum fixed period shall be 180 days; (2) amounts may be fixed in increments of $100,000.00 or multiples thereof; and (3) the maximum number of fixes in place at any one time shall be five.

Upon the expiration of any fixed rate period, interest shall automatically accrue at the variable rate option unless the amount fixed is repaid or fixed for an additional period in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, rates may not be fixed for periods expiring after the maturity date of the loans and rates may not be fixed in such a manner as to cause the Company to have to break any fixed rate balance in order to pay any installment of principal. All elections provided for herein shall be made telephonically or in writing and must be received by 12:00 Noon Company’s local time. Interest shall be calculated on the actual number of days each loan is outstanding on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days and shall be payable quarterly in arrears by the 20th day of each March, June, September, and December or on such other day in such month as CoBank shall require in a written notice to the Company.

If any installment due date is not a Business Day, then such installment shall be due and payable on the next Business Day. In addition to the above, the Company promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of the loan at the times and in accordance with the provisions set forth above.

SECTION 7. Prepayment. Subject to the broken funding surcharge provision of the MLA (Section 12 (A)), the Company may prepay all or any portion of the loan(s).
