(b) Each Borrower hereby severally and unconditionally, but not jointly or jointly and severally, promises to pay to the Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by the Lender to such Borrower on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to this Agreement).

(d) Each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender a promissory note evidencing the Loans of the Lender to such Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (individually a “Note” and collectively the “Notes”). Without regard to the principal amount of any Note stated on its face, the actual principal amount at any time outstanding and owing by the Borrower on account of a Note shall be the sum of all Loans made to such Borrower hereunder less all payments of principal actually received by the Lender with respect to such Loans.

Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment and as hereinabove and hereinafter provided, including without limitation Section 2.01(b), the Borrower may request a Borrowing hereunder, and repay or prepay Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.14 and utilize the resulting increase in the Available Commitments for further Extensions of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof.

Interest hereunder shall be due and payable on the last business day of each month during the term hereof. Borrowers may prepay any Advances without penalty or premium.

Bank is authorized to make Advances under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible Officer or a designee of a Responsible Officer, or without instructions if in Bank’s discretion such Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due and remain unpaid. Bank shall be entitled to rely on any email or telephonic notice given by a person who Bank reasonably believes to be a Responsible Officer or a designee thereof, and Borrowers shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless for any damages or loss suffered by Bank as a result of such reliance.
