1847 NEESE INC.

 

10% SHORT TERM PROMISSORY NOTE

 

US $1,025,000

March 3, 2017

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, 1847 Neese Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Neese, Inc., an Iowa corporation, (jointly and severally the “Company”), promise to pay to Alan Neese and Katherine Neese (collectively, the “Holder”), the principal sum of One Million Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($1,025,000) (the “Principal”) in lawful money of the United States of America, with interest payable on the outstanding Principal amount at the simple rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. The unpaid Principal and all accrued but unpaid interest on such unpaid Principal shall be paid in full to the Holder on the first anniversary of the date of this Note (the “Maturity Date”).

 

Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated March 3, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Holder, Neese, Inc. and the Company, pursuant to which the Company is acquiring the Shares from the Holder.

 

The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder of this Note and the terms and conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the Holder, by acceptance of this Note, agrees:

 

1. Principal Repayment. The unpaid Principal along with all accrued, but unpaid interest on the unpaid Principal, shall be paid in one lump sum on the Maturity Date; provided, however that the unpaid Principal, and all accrued, but unpaid, interest thereon shall be prepaid if at any time, and from time to time until the Maturity Date, the Company’s cash on hand exceeds $250,000 and, then, the prepayment shall be equal to the amount of cash in excess of $200,000 until the unpaid Principal and accrued, but unpaid, interest thereon is fully prepaid.

 

2. Interest. Interest (the “Interest”) shall accrue on the unpaid Principal from the date hereof until the unpaid Principal is repaid in full at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. Interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on or before the tenth (10th) day of each succeeding month with the first interest payment covering the period from the date of issuance of this Note until March 31, 2017. All computations of the Interest rate hereunder shall be made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any Interest rate provided for herein shall be determined to be unlawful, such Interest rate shall be computed at the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Any payment by the Company of any Interest amount in excess of that permitted by law shall be considered a mistake, with the excess being applied to the unpaid Principal of this Note without prepayment premium or penalty.

3. Events of Default. In the event that any of the following (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:

 

(a) Non-Payment. The Company shall default in the payment of the unpaid Principal of, or accrued Interest on the unpaid Principal of, this Note as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration or otherwise; or

 

(b) Default in Covenants. The Company shall default in any material manner in the observance or performance of any covenants or agreements set forth in the Purchase Agreement, this Note, or any other agreement entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”); or

 

(c) Breach of Representations and Warranties. The Company materially breaches any representation or warranty contained in the Transaction Documents; or

 

(d) Bankruptcy. The Company shall: (i) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due; (ii) apply for, consent to, or acquiesce in, the appointment of a trustee, receiver, sequestrator or other custodian for the Company or any of its property, or make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iii) in the absence of such application, consent or acquiesce in, permit or suffer to exist the appointment of a trustee, receiver, sequestrator or other custodian for the Company or for any part of its property; or (iv) permit or suffer to exist the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution, winding up or liquidation proceeding, in respect of the Company, and, if such case or proceeding is not commenced by the Company or converted to a voluntary case, such case or proceeding shall be consented to or acquiesced in by the Company or shall result in the entry of an order for relief;

 

then, and so long as such Event of Default is continuing for a period of two (2) business days in the case of non-payment under Section 3(a), or for a period of thirty (30) calendar days in the case of events under Sections 3(b) and 3(c) (and the event which would constitute such Event of Default, if curable, has not been cured), by written notice to the Company from the Holders of a majority in interest of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (or from any collateral agent acting on behalf of such Holders), all obligations of the Company under this Note shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other action nor obligation of the Holder of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and Holder may exercise any other remedies the Holder may have at law or in equity. If an Event of Default specified in Section 3(d) above occurs, the principal of, and accrued interest on, all the Notes, less any prepaid amounts under Section 1, shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of any Holder, become immediately due and payable.

5. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. If this Note shall become mutilated or defaced, or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company shall execute and deliver a new note of like principal amount in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the destroyed, lost or stolen Note certificate. In the case of a mutilated or defaced Note certificate, the Holder shall surrender such Note certificate to the Company. In the case of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note certificate, the Holder shall furnish to the Company: (i) evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note certificate and (ii) such security or indemnity (which shall not include the posting of any bond) as may be reasonably required by the Company to hold the Company harmless.

 

6. Waiver of Demand, Presentment, etc. The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, bringing of suit and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereunder, regardless of and without any notice, diligence, act or omission as or with respect to the collection of any amount called for hereunder.

The receipt by the Holder of immediately available funds shall constitute a payment of principal and interest hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal and interest on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such payment. Payment shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and the remainder applied to principal.

 

8. Assignment. The rights and obligations of the Company and the Holder of this Note shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. To complete an assignment or transfer this Note, the Holder shall deliver a completed and executed Form of Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit A and surrender and deliver this Note, duly endorsed, to the Company’s office or such other address which the Company shall designate, upon receipt of which a new Note, in substantially the form of this Note (any such new Note, a “New Note”), evidencing the portion of this Note so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Note evidencing the remaining portion of this Note not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Note by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations in respect of the New Note that the Holder has in respect of this Note.
