It is expressly understood and agreed that, at Borrower’s request, Advances may take the form of Bank's issuance of one or more letters of credit for Borrower's benefit, from time to time in accordance with Bank's typical requirements then appertaining (provided, however, in no event shall Borrower have to pay any letter of credit fees in connection with the issuance of any such letters of credit in excess of those typically charged by Bank at the time of issuance), but the aggregate face amount of all such letters of credit at any one time outstanding shall not exceed $350,000.00.

(e) Bank shall not be required to make any Advances to Borrower upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

2.2 Line of Credit Note. The obligation of Borrower to pay the principal of, and accrued interest on, the Line of Credit Facility shall be evidenced by the Note:

(a) payable to the order of Bank in the face amount of Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00);

(b) bearing interest on its unpaid principal amount of all Advances at an annual rate equal to the greater of (i) the Prime Rate plus one percent (1%), and (ii) four and one-half percent (4.5%) per annum. Interest shall fluctuate with changes in the Prime Rate and shall be computed on the actual number of days elapsed;

(c) payable as to interest monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month commencing March 1, 2011, through and including the first day on which:

(i) the Line of Credit Facility shall have expired or been terminated, and

(ii) Borrower shall have repaid in full the Line of Credit Facility (it being understood that interest shall again accrue upon any subsequent borrowing under the Line of Credit Facility);

(d) payable as to principal in full on September 28, 2012; provided, that if at any time the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit Facility exceeds the Borrowing Base, then Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days thereafter, prepay such portion of such outstanding principal balance as shall be necessary to eliminate such excess;

(e) prepayable by Borrower without penalty or premium but with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid, at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, upon notification to Bank of such prepayment not later than 10:00 A.M. on the date of such prepayment; and

(f) secured by the Surety Agreement, the Mortgage, and the Pledge Agreement.

2.3 Payments.

(a) All payments by Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made to Bank at its office described in the heading of this Agreement, or such other place or places as Bank may direct in writing, prior to 4:00 P.M., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, time, on the date of payment (or, if the date of payment is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) in funds which are immediately available to Bank.

(b) All payments received by Bank in immediately available funds prior to 4:00 P.M., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, time, on any Business Day will be credited to Borrower's Loan Account on the date of receipt. All payments received by Bank in immediately available funds after 4:00 P.M., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, time, on any Business Day will be credited to Borrower's Loan Account on the next Business Day.

(c) All payments received by Bank which are not in immediately available funds shall be subject to a clearance of three (3) Business Days.

2.4 Computations.

(a) Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed (365/360 or 366/360, as the case may be). Interest for each month shall be added to principal as of the close of each month.

(b) Any change in the interest rate resulting from a change in the Prime Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the day on which Bank announces the change.

Each and every statement of account transmitted by Bank to Borrower hereunder, whether in person, or by ordinary mail or otherwise, shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Borrower in all respects as to all loans, fees, interest, charges, payments, receipts, balances, and all other matters reflected therein unless Borrower, within thirty (30) days after the receipt thereof, shall give notice to Bank in writing of all objections to any such statement of account specifying those items considered by Borrower to be in dispute. Borrower agrees that its failure to specify items in dispute within the foregoing thirty (30) day period shall operate as a waiver of its rights to do so at a later time.

2.6 Late Charge. If any of the payments under the Note shall become overdue for a period of fifteen (15) days, Borrower shall pay Bank a "late charge" computed at the rate of five percent (5%) of the amount not paid, to cover the extra expense and inconvenience to Bank in ensuring payment of such delinquent amount.
