“(ii) Two and 50/100 percent (2.50%) per annum.”

(b) Minimum Balance Required. The last sentence of Section 2(c) of Note B is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Furthermore, as more particularly provided in the Loan Agreement, if the outstanding principal balance of this Note is at any time less than $50,000, Lender may demand immediate payment in full of this Note and may terminate the revolving facility it evidences.”

(c) Reference to Related Loan. The “Related Loan” as defined in the Note has been increased as of even date herewith to a loan in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed One Hundred Seventy-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($175,000,000.00), as more particularly provided in the Fourth Amendment, and all references in Note B to the Related Loan are hereby adjusted accordingly.
