The Company agrees to pay to Berkshire Bank, as consideration for Berkshire Bank’s agreement to make the Revolver Loan available, a nonrefundable Revolver Loan fee equal to 0.25% per annum (computed based on a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the difference between the amount of: (a) $5.0 million, and (b) the average daily outstanding balance of the Revolver Loan during the quarterly period then ended. All Revolver Loan fees are payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October and on the Revolver Maturity Date, or upon acceleration of the Revolver Loan, if earlier.
Under the promissory note for the Revolver Loan, the Company can elect to pay interest at an adjusted LIBOR-based rate or an Adjusted Prime Rate.
