-15-

 
 
(b)    If any claim, action or proceeding (a “Proceeding”) is made or brought against Lender or any of its officers, directors, agents and employees in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, Lender shall promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of any such claim or action) give notice to Borrower of the Proceeding; provided that the failure of Lender to give such notice shall not relieve Borrower from any of their obligations under this Section 5.9 unless the failure prejudices the defense by Borrower of the Proceeding, and then only to the extent of any such prejudice.  Following receipt by Borrower of such notice from Lender, Borrower will be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) Borrower is also a party to such Proceeding and Lenders determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) Borrower fails to provide reasonable assurance to Lender of its financial capacity to defend such Proceeding and provide indemnification with respect to such Proceeding), to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel satisfactory to Lender.  If Borrower assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Section 5.9 that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by Borrower without Lender’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no material effect on any other claims that may be made against Lender, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by Borrower; and (iii) Lender will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent.  If notice is given to Borrower of the commencement of any Proceeding and Borrower does not, within twenty (20) days after Lender’s notice is given, give notice to Lender of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, Borrower will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by Lender (to the extent is thereafter conclusively established for purposes of this Section 5.9 that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification).
 
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lender determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.9, Lender may, by notice to Borrower, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but Borrower will not be conclusively bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

Reference is made to that certain Subordinated Loan Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2009, between Rurbanc Data Services, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“Lender”), having an address of 7622 State Route 66 N, Defiance, Ohio 43512, and New Core Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Borrower”), having an address of 720 Gooseneck Drive, Lititz, Pennsylvania 17543 (as amended, amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “Subordinated Loan Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Subordinated Loan Agreement.

For value received, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender, on or before the principal due date (as described below), the principal sum of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00), together with interest from the date hereof on the unpaid principal balance from time to time outstanding, as described below.

Pursuant to the terms of the Subordinated Loan Agreement, the principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on the Initial Advance Maturity Date, provided, that (a) if neither the Spin-Off nor the RDSI Sale occurs on or before the Final Spin-Off Date, the principal amount of the Initial Advance shall be due and payable on the later of the Initial Advance Maturity Date and 36 months after the Final Spin-Off Date or (b) if the RDSI Sale occurs, the principal amount of the Initial Advance shall be due and payable on the later of the Initial Advance Maturity Date and 36 months after the RDSI Sale Date.

Advances made pursuant to this Note shall bear interest from the date of the Initial Advance at the rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) plus the One Year FHLBB Advance Rate as in effect on the date of such Advance.  The interest rate shall adjust on each anniversary of the issuance of this Note to a rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) plus the One Year FHLBB Advance Rate in effect on such anniversary date.  Interest shall accrue and shall be due and payable on the Final Spin-Off Date, provided, that (a) if neither the Spin-Off nor the RDSI Sale occurs on or before the Final Spin-Off Date, Borrower shall pay all accrued interest on the Final Spin-Off Date, and any interest accrued thereafter shall be due and payable monthly on the first day of each following month, or (b) if the RDSI Sale occurs, Borrower shall pay all accrued interest on the RDSI Sale Date, and any interest accrued thereafter shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month thereafter.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual number of days the unpaid principal amount hereof is outstanding.

All payments received under the terms of this Note will be applied by Lender first to any sums due under this Note other than principal or interest, second to interest due and payable, third to any amounts of principal due and payable, and fourth to the last to mature of the payments of principal due under this Note.
 

 
Principal, interest and other sums payable in accordance with this Note shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America at Lender’s address referenced above, or such other address of which Lender may from time to time give written notice to Borrower.

This Note shall be secured by all assets and personal property of Borrower, which collateral is more fully described in that certain Security Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2009, between Borrower and Lender (as amended, amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “Security Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein.

If an Event of Default shall occur, Lender shall, without limitation, have all of the rights and remedies provided by any law or agreement, including the Subordination Agreement and other Loan Documents.  Upon any Event of Default, all outstanding Advances shall, immediately and without any action by Lender, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) five percent (5%) plus (b) the interest rate on the Advances in effect prior to an Event of Default.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.           Definitions.  All capitalized terms used herein without definitions shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Subordinated Loan Agreement.  The term "State", as used herein, means the State of Ohio.  All terms defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State and used herein shall have the same definitions herein as specified therein; provided, however, that the term "instrument" shall be such term as defined in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State rather than Article 3.  The term "Obligations"; as used herein, means all of the indebtedness, obligations and liabilities of the Company to the Lender, individually or collectively, whether direct or indirect, joint or several, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising under or in respect of the Subordinated Loan Agreement, any promissory notes or other instruments or agreements executed and delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or this Agreement.

3.           Authorization to File Financing Statements.  The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of the Company or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or such jurisdiction, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including (i) whether the Company is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to the Company and, (ii) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral as as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of real property to which the Collateral relates.  The Company agrees to furnish any such information to the Lender promptly upon request.  The Company also ratifies its authorization for the Lender to have filed in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any like initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.

4.           Other Actions.  Further to insure the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the ability of the Lender to enforce, the Lender's security interest in the Collateral, the Company agrees, in each case at the Company's own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Collateral:

4.1.           Promissory Notes and Tangible Chattel Paper.  If the Company shall at any time hold or acquire any promissory notes or tangible chattel paper (other than any promissory notes where the obligor/payor thereunder is a shareholder or employee of the Company), the Company shall forthwith execute a conditional assignment (i.e., the assignment shall become effective upon any Event of Default under the Loan Documents) and deliver the same to the Lender, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Lender may from time to time specify.

4.2.           Deposit Accounts.  For each deposit account that the Company at any time opens or maintains, the Company shall, at the Lender's request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, either (a) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply at any time with instructions from the Lender to such depositary bank directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to such deposit account, without further consent of the Company, or (b) arrange for the Lender to become the customer of the depositary bank with respect to the deposit account, with the Company being permitted, only with the consent of the Lender, to exercise rights to withdraw funds from such deposit account.  The Lender agrees with the Company that the Lender shall not give any such instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from the Company, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal not otherwise permitted by the Loan Document, would occur.  The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to (i) any deposit account for which the Company, the depositary bank and the Lender have entered into a cash collateral agreement specially negotiated among the Company, the depositary bank and the Lender for the specific purpose set forth therein, (ii) deposit accounts for which the Lender is the depositary and (iii) deposit accounts specially and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of the Company's salaried employees.

4.3.           Investment Property.  If the Company shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities, the Company shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Lender, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Lender may from time to time specify.  If any securities now or hereafter acquired by the Company are uncertificated and are issued to the Company or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, the Company shall immediately notify the Lender thereof and, at the Lender's request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Lender as to such securities, without further consent of the Company or such nominee, or (b) arrange for the Lender to become the registered owner of the securities.  If any securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other investment property now or hereafter acquired by the Company are held by the Company or its nominee through a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, the Company shall immediately notify the Lender thereof and, at the Lender's request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, either (i) cause such securities intermediary or (as the case may be) commodity intermediary to agree to comply with entitlement orders or other instructions from the Lender to such securities intermediary as to such securities or other investment property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract as directed by the Lender to such commodity intermediary, in each case without further consent of the Company or such nominee, or (ii) in the case of financial assets or other investment property held through a securities intermediary, arrange for the Lender to become the entitlement holder with respect to such investment property, with the Company being permitted, only with the consent of the Lender, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such investment property.  The Lender agrees with the Company that the Lender shall not give any such entitlement orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer, securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by the Company, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights not otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, would occur.  The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any financial assets credited to a securities account for which the Lender is the securities intermediary.

4.5.           Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.  If the Company at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any "transferable record," as that term is defined in Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, the Company shall promptly notify the Lender thereof and, at the request of the Lender, shall take such action as the Lender may reasonably request to vest in the Lender control under UCC Section 9-105 of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record.  The Lender agrees with the Company that the Lender will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Lender and so long as such procedures will not result in the Lender's loss of control, for the Company to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to make without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by the Company with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record.

10.         Insurance.

10.1.        Maintenance of Insurance.  The Company will maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers insurance with respect to its properties and business against such casualties and contingencies as shall be in accordance with general practices of businesses engaged in similar activities in similar geographic areas.  Such insurance shall be in such minimum amounts that the Company will not be deemed a co-insurer under applicable insurance laws, regulations and policies and otherwise shall be in such amounts, contain such terms, be in such forms and be for such periods as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.  In addition, all such insurance shall be payable to the Lender as loss payee. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will (i) keep all of its physical property insured with casualty or physical hazard insurance on an "all risks" basis, with broad form flood and earthquake coverages and electronic data processing coverage, with a full replacement cost endorsement and an "agreed amount" clause in an amount equal to 100% of the full replacement cost of such property, (ii) maintain all such workers' compensation or similar insurance as may be required by law and (iii) maintain, in amounts equal to those generally maintained by businesses engaged in similar activities in similar geographic areas, general public liability insurance against claims of bodily injury, death or property damage occurring, on, in or about the properties of the Company; business interruption insurance; and product liability insurance.

10.2.        Insurance Proceeds.  The proceeds of any casualty insurance in respect of any casualty loss of any of the Collateral shall, subject to the rights, if any, of other parties with a prior interest in the property covered thereby, (i) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and to the extent that the amount of such proceeds is less than $25,000, be disbursed to the Company for direct application by the Company solely to the repair or replacement of the Company's property so damaged or destroyed and (ii) in all other circumstances, be held by the Lender as cash collateral for the Obligations.  The Lender may, at its sole option, disburse from time to time all or any part of such proceeds so held as cash collateral, upon such terms and conditions as the Lender may reasonably prescribe, for direct application by the Company solely to the repair or replacement of the Company's property so damaged or destroyed, or the Lender may apply all or any part of such proceeds to the Obligations with the Commitment (if not then terminated) being reduced by the amount so applied to the Obligations.
 
7

 
10.3.        Notice of Cancellation, etc.  All policies of insurance shall provide for at least 30 days prior written cancellation notice to the Lender.  In the event of failure by the Company to provide and maintain insurance as herein provided, the Lender may, at its option, provide such insurance and charge the amount thereof to the Company.  The Company shall furnish the Lender with certificates of insurance and policies evidencing compliance with the foregoing insurance provision.

11.          Collateral Protection Expenses; Preservation of Collateral.

11.1.        Expenses Incurred by Lender.  In its discretion, the Lender may discharge taxes and other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on any of the Collateral, make repairs thereto and pay any necessary filing fees, provided that Borrower is given not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice of such encumbrance and Lender’s intent to satisfy.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall not discharge or otherwise satisfy any such taxes or other encumbrances if the same are contested and disputed by Borrower in good faith.  The Company agrees to reimburse the Lender on demand for any and all expenditures so made.  The Lender shall have no obligation to the Company to make any such expenditures, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Company of any default.

11.2.        Lender's Obligations and Duties.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall remain liable under each contract or agreement comprised in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the Company thereunder.  The Lender shall not have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Lender of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of the Company under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Lender in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Lender or to which the Lender may be entitled at any time or times.  The Lender's sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or otherwise, shall be to deal with such Collateral in the same manner as the Lender deals with similar property for its own account.
 
8

 
12.          Securities and Deposits.  The Lender may at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, at its option, transfer to itself or any nominee any securities constituting Collateral, receive any income thereon and hold such income as additional Collateral or apply it to the Obligations.  Whether or not any Obligations are due, the Lender may, following and during the continuance of an Event of Default, demand, sue for, collect, or make any settlement or compromise which it deems desirable with respect to the Collateral.  Regardless of the adequacy of Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Lender to the Company may at any time be applied to or set off against any of the Obligations.

13.          Notification to Account Debtors and Other Persons Obligated on Collateral.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, at the request of the Lender, notify account debtors and other persons obligated on any of the Collateral of the security interest of the Lender in any account, chattel paper, general intangible, instrument or other Collateral and that payment thereof is to be made directly to the Lender or to any financial institution designated by the Lender as the Lender's agent therefor, and the Lender may itself, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to or demand upon the Company, so notify account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral.  After the making of such a request or the giving of any such notification, the Company shall hold any proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Company as trustee for the Lender without commingling the same with other funds of the Company and shall turn the same over to the Lender in the identical form received, together with any necessary endorsements or assignments.  The Lender shall apply the proceeds of collection of accounts, chattel paper, general intangibles, instruments and other Collateral received by the Lender to the Obligations, such proceeds to be immediately entered after final payment in cash or other immediately available funds of the items giving rise to them.

14.          Power of Attorney.

14.1.       Appointment and Powers of Lender.  The Company hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Company or in the Lender's own name, and hereby gives said attorneys the power and right, on behalf of the Company, without notice to or assent by the Company, to do the following:

(a)           in the event of the Company’s failure or refusal to take any action required to be taken by the Company hereunder to insure the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the Lender’s other rights with respect to, the Lender’s security interest in any and all of the Collateral, to take any and all of such actions on behalf of the Company and/or in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; and

(b)           to the extent that the Company's authorization given in Section 3 is not sufficient, to file such financing statements with respect hereto, with or without the Company's signature, or a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as the Lender may deem appropriate and to execute in the Company's name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require the Company's signature.

14.2.        Ratification by Company.  To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

14.3.        No Duty on Lender.  The powers conferred on the Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  The Lender shall be accountable only for the amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Company for any act or failure to act, except for the Lender's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.          Remedies.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender may, without further notice to or demand upon the Company, declare this Agreement to be in default, and the Lender shall thereafter have in any jurisdiction in which enforcement hereof is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or of any jurisdiction in which Collateral is located, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose the Lender may, so far as the Company can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral may be situated and remove the same therefrom.  The Lender may in its discretion require the Company to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of the Company's principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Lender may reasonably designate.  Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Lender shall give to the Company at least five Business Days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made.  The Company hereby acknowledges that five Business Days prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice.

16.          Standards for Exercising Remedies.  To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Company acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Lender (a) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (b) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (c) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (d) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Company, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (e) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (g) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (h) to disclaim disposition warranties, (i) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Lender against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Lender a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (j) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Lender, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Lender in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  The Company acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 16 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the Lender's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 16.  Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 16 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Company or to impose any duties on the Lender that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 16.

17.          No Waiver by Lender, etc.  The Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights upon or under the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Lender.  No delay or omission on the part of the Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right.  A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion.  All rights and remedies of the Lender with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Lender deems expedient.

18.          Suretyship Waivers by Company.  The Company waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of loans made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered or other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.  With respect to both the Obligations and the Collateral, the Company assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of or failure to perfect any security interest in any Collateral, to the addition or release of any party or person primarily or secondarily liable, to the acceptance of partial payment thereon and the settlement, compromising or adjusting of any thereof, all in such manner and at such time or times as the Lender may deem advisable.  The Lender shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof as set forth in Section 11.2.
 
11

 
19.          Marshalling.  The Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of its rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

20.          Proceeds of Dispositions; Expenses.  The Company shall pay to the Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Lender in protecting, preserving or enforcing the Lender's rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral.  After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale of the Obligations or Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as the Lender may determine, proper allowance and provision being made for any Obligations not then due.  Upon the final payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations and after making any payments required by Sections 9-608(a)(1)(C) or 9-615(a)(3) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, any excess shall be returned to the Company, and the Company shall remain liable for any deficiency in the payment of the Obligations.

21.          Overdue Amounts.  Until paid, all amounts due and payable by the Company hereunder shall be a debt secured by the Collateral and shall bear, whether before or after judgment, interest at the Default Rate.

22.          Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE.  If there is a lawsuit arising out of this Agreement, the Company agrees, upon the Lender’s request, to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of a state court of appropriate jurisdiction in Defiance County, Ohio, or a federal court of appropriate jurisdiction in Toledo, Ohio, and waives any objection that it may have, now or hereafter, to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding, and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding.

23.          Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS.  Except as prohibited by law, each party waives any right which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages.  The Company (i) certifies that neither the Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Lender would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Subordinated Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Lender is a party, the Lender is relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this Section 23.

24.          Miscellaneous.  The headings of each section of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not define or limit the provisions thereof.  This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon the Company and its respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns.  If any term of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity of all other terms hereof shall in no way be affected thereby, and this Agreement shall be construed and be enforceable as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term had not been included herein.  The Company acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement.

1.           Restrictions on Transfer of Shares.  No holder of Shares of New Core Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) may Transfer any Shares now owned or hereafter acquired except in compliance with this Agreement.  Any proposed Transfer which is not in compliance with this Agreement shall be void and of no effect whatsoever, and shall not be recognized by the Company on its books or otherwise.

(a)           Tag Along Rights.  If one or more holders of Shares owning, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the outstanding Shares (collectively, the “Majority Shareholders”), propose to Transfer all or any portion of the Shares held by the Majority Shareholders (the “Offered Shares”) to an unaffiliated third party (the “Third Party Purchaser”) pursuant to a bona fide sale (in one or more related transactions), Rurbanc Data Services, Inc.

The Majority Shareholders shall notify RDSI in writing of any such proposed Transfer (the “Sale Notice”).  The Sale Notice shall set forth (i) the name and address of the proposed Third Party Purchaser; (ii) a copy of the written proposal containing all of the material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer (including the proposed purchase price and terms and conditions of payment); and (iii) the date and location of and procedures for the Transfer.  The Tag Along shall be exercised by RDSI by delivery of a written notice to the Majority Shareholders within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Sale Notice, which notice shall state the number of Shares that RDSI proposes to Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser.  If RDSI does not choose to participate in the Tag Along to the fullest extent possible, the Majority Shareholders shall have the right to Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser the amount of Shares that RDSI would have been entitled to Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser.  RDSI will bear the costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the Tag Along to the extent such costs are not paid by the Third Party Purchaser.

(b)           Drag Along Rights.  If the Majority Shareholders propose to Transfer all of the Shares held by the Majority Shareholders to a Third Party Purchaser pursuant to a bona fide sale (in one or more related transactions), the Majority Shareholders shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to RDSI (the “Drag Along Notice”), to require RDSI to participate in such Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser on the same terms and conditions as the Majority Shareholders (the “Drag Along”).  Upon receipt of the Drag Along Notice, RDSI shall take all actions necessary or desirable in connection with the consummation of the Drag Along in order to effectively vest good title, right and interest, free and clear of all liens or encumbrances, in all of the Shares to such Third Party Purchaser on the same terms and conditions and for the same consideration per share as is applicable to the Majority Shareholders, within not more than thirty (30) days following the date of the Drag Along Notice.  The Majority Shareholders will bear the costs and expenses incurred by RDSI in connection with the Drag Along to the extent such costs and expenses are not paid by the Third Party Purchaser.
