Fifth Third Bank (the &#147;Bank&#148;). The original two-year $5.0 million credit facility was entered into on February&nbsp;7, 2008, and a 90-day extension was granted until May&nbsp;7, 2010. The renewed credit facility has a floating interest
rate equal to the &#147;Prime Rate&#148; plus one hundred and fifty basis points (1.50%), requires monthly payments of interest only, and is due in full April&nbsp;23, 2011. The Company will also be required to pay the Bank an unused line fee equal
to 0.50%&nbsp;per annum of the unused portion of the credit line. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The line of credit will be initially secured by
approximately 29,000 numismatic coins recovered by the Company from the SS <I>Republic</I> shipwreck, which amount will be reduced over the term by the amount of coins sold by the Company. The coins used as collateral will be held by a custodian for
the security of the Bank. The borrowing base will be equal to forty percent (40%) of the eligible coin inventory valued on a rolling twelve month wholesale average value. The Company is required to comply with a number of customary covenants.

contract interest rate set forth above, but not exceeding 18%&nbsp;per annum. Upon a failure by Borrower to repay principal upon demand by Lender made not less than ten (10)&nbsp;days after the date due hereunder, Lender may declare the entire
principal and interest then remaining unpaid to be immediately due and payable without further notice or demand, and the entire unpaid principal balance shall bear interest at the &#147;Default Interest Rate&#148;. In addition to the rights
described in this paragraph, Lender shall have the right to exercise all other rights or remedies provided by law or at equity and shall specifically have the right to recover all damages resulting from such default including, without limitation,
the right to recover the payment of all amounts owing to Lender. Exercise of any of these options shall be without notice to Borrower, notice of such exercise being hereby expressly waived. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Time is of the essence hereunder. In the event that this Note is collected by law or through attorneys at law, or under advice therefrom,
Borrower and any other person liable for payment hereof, to the extent of such liability, hereby agree to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys&#146; fees and costs (including charges for paralegals and others working under the
direction or supervision of Lender&#146;s attorneys) and all sales or use taxes thereon, whether or not suit is brought, and whether incurred in connection with collection, trial, appeal, bankruptcy or other creditor&#146;s proceedings or otherwise.

Borrower, for any payment of principal or interest past due hereunder for the amount of such payment of principal or interest. Exercise of this right shall be optional with Lender and the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed as
releasing Borrower from the obligation to make payments of principal or interest according to the terms hereof. Borrower shall have no right of setoff against the Lender under this Note or any instrument securing this Note. </FONT></P>

at the sole discretion of Lender. No act of omission or commission of Lender, including specifically any failure to exercise any right, remedy or recourse, shall be deemed to be a waiver or release of the same, such waiver or release to be effected
only through a written document executed by Lender and then only to the extent specifically recited therein. A waiver or release with reference to any one event shall not be construed as continuing, as a bar to, or as a waiver of release of, any
subsequent right, remedy or recourse as to a subsequent event. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby:
(a)&nbsp;expressly waives any presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of nonpayment or protest, all other forms of notice whatsoever, and diligence in collection; (b)&nbsp;agrees that Lender, in order to enforce payment
of this Note against them shall not be required first to institute any suit or to exhaust any of its remedies against any Borrower or any other person or party or to attempt to realize on the collateral for this Note. </FONT></P>
