Beginning in the third year of the Existing Building Lease and continuing each year until the tenth year, the WFEDC shall reimburse Carter for the total rent, but the percentage of rent to be reimbursed shall be reduced by 15% of the original amount (e.g., the WFEDC shall reimburse Carter for 84% of the total rent for the third year of the term of the Existing Building Lease).

(b) Improvements to Leased Space Upon Carter moving from 5720 Seymour Highway, Wichita Falls, Texas, into another location to achieve the milestones mentioned in Section 3, the WFEDC will advance Carter up to $250,000 for necessary improvements to a leased space. The final amount up to $250,000 will not be subject to a payback obligation, and will not be part of the loan, but will reduce the $4,000,000 otherwise in this agreement. If this building is located outside of Wichita Falls, the location must be approved by the Board of Directors of the WFEDC and will be subject to an agreement between the WFEDC and the governing body of the jurisdiction in which the building is located pursuant to TEx. Loc. Gov'T Co�E Alvtv. § 501.159.

Payments will be issued in eight equal amounts each of which shall be advanced to Carter upon its request upon completion of each of the following milestones: (a) Successful Flight of second prototype of PAV (no wings) (currently under construction - February 2010); (b) Purchase Order received from a viable business entity for first pre-production PAV (March 2010); (c) Successful Flight of second prototype PAV (with wings) (Sept. 2010); (d) Purchase Order received from a viable business entity for second pre- production PAV (Oct. 2011); (e) Successful completion of second prototype PAV flight tests (Dec. 2011); (� First pre-production PAV flies (Dec. 2011); (g) Carter employs 20 New Positions (Jan. 2011); and (h) Carter employs 50 New Positions (June 2011). 3 DALLAS 2082232v.3 Timelines in parentheses above are merely non-binding projections. Carter will have up to four years after the date of the definitive agreement to become entitled to funding under the Operating Capital Loan for meeting the aforementioned milestones. 4. Re�avment of the Loan. Beginning four years after the date of the definitive agreement, Carter will repay the Loan under the following terms: (a) The total amount of funds advanced to Carter under the Loan will be paid back to the WFEDC in equal quarterly installments beginning the first day of the 4th year after execution of the definitive agreement and continuing with quarterly payments through the last day of the 7th year (the "Repavment Period"). (b) The WFEDC will reduce each quarterly Loan payment due by an unduplicated credit of 10% of the increase in Annual Payroll. A Payroll Statement shall be delivered upon execution of this Agreement (the "Initial Pavroll Statement") and with each quarterly payment due during the Repayment Period and shall determine whether Carter is entitled to a reduction of the then due payment in an amount equal to 10% of any increase in Annual Payroll. The Initial Payroll Statement shall set forth the Annual Payroll in Wichita County for the 12-month period preceding the execution of this Agreement. The second Payroll Statement shall be delivered to the WFEDC with payment of the first quarterly payment due during the Repayment Period (the "First Pa,� ent") and shall set forth the Annual Payroll in Wichita County for the preceding 12 month period and the difference between such Annual Payroll and the Annual Payroll set forth in the Initial Payroll Statement (the "Initial Pa� Increase"). The First Payment shall be reduced by an amount equal to 10% of the Initial Payroll Increase in Wichita County. Each increase in Annual Payroll in Wichita County set forth in subsequent Payroll Statements shall reduce the applicable quarterly payment due by an amount equal to 10% of the amount of any increase over the payroll in the Initial Payroll Statement. It is the intent of this agreement to award the 10% credit for payroll increases that are sustained for at least a year, but subsequent maintenance of those jobs or payroll level shall NOT entitle Carter to additional credits from the loan. Further, if a position is subsequently eliminated and re-created, it shall NOT entitle Carter to any additional payroll credit as a result of the re-creation of previously established payroll levels. (c) Prior to receiving funds pursuant to this Agreement, Carter shall execute a separate note or investment agreement more specifically describing the repayment and/or investment terms set forth herein. The required security and other terms will be determined by negotiation between the parties. Carter and the WFEDC acknowledge that this Agreement is prepared for the purpose of facilitating the drafting of a definitive agreement regarding WFEDC's investment and that this Agreement does not constitute a legally binding agreement between the parties. (d) The interest rate on funds provided under the Loan will be 0% prior to payment default and 5% per year simple interest after payment default. Carter may prepay the Loan at any time without penalty. Carter shall have no further obligations to the WFEDC upon payment in full of the Loan. 4 DALLAS 2082232v.3 (e) Upon default of any payments hereunder, the WFEDC may, at its option, receive equity interest in Carter, Carter Aviation Technologies, LLC or Carter Aerospace Development, LLC (collectively, the "Carter Companies") during the term of this Agreement. The value of the equity interest received shall equal the defaulted payments due under the Loan. The equity interest shall be valued at the greater of: (i) the last sale price of such interest, plus 20%, (ii) book value of the Carter Companies, or (iii) fair market value of the Carter Companies. Book value and fair market value of the Carter Companies shall be based on an opinion from a certified public accountant selected by the parties. This option to purchase an equity interest in the event of default will be described in the note provided subsequently hereto, and the funds provided hereunder will be subject to each of the Carter Companies executing investment agreements binding said companies to the equity issuance option. More specific valuation methods may be required by the WFEDC in the note and security document executed at the time of execution of the Loan documents. The WFEDC may choose to convert all, some or none of any particular note's defaulted payment to equity pursuant to this paragraph and the terms provided in the note or other Loan document. 5. Use of Proceeds. Carter agrees to use all of the funds received pursuant to this Agreement for (or as reimbursement for) the "costs" (as that term is defined in TEx. Loc. Gov'T CoDE Atvr1. § 501.152) of this "project" related to the creation or retention of primary jobs as provided by TEx. Loc. Gov CODE ANN § 501.101. 6. Violations. In accordance with TEx. Gov'T CoDE A�tv. §§ 2264.001 through 2264.101, Carter does not and will not knowingly employ an undocumented worker during the term of this Agreement in violation of Texas or federal law. If, during the term of this Agreement, Carter or a branch, division, or department of Carter is convicted of a violation under 8 U.S.C. Section 1324a(�, Carter shall repay the amount of the public subsidy with the addition of interest at the interest rate described in each note as required by TEx. Gov CODE ANN § 2264.053, not later than the 120th day after the date the WFEDC notifies the business of the violation. In addition, if Carter ceases manufacturing operations in Wichita County during the life of the loan, re-locates its manufacturing operation to a county other than Wichita County during the life of the loan, or fails to continuously maintain the positions created pursuant to Section 3 during the life of the loan, then Carter shall be obligated to pay the 5% annual interest rate described in Section 4(d) of this agreement.
