This note (the “Note”) amends and completely restates and evidences the indebtedness outstanding under and is substituted for, but not in payment, satisfaction, cancellation or novation of, the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note dated March 18, 2004 which was issued by the Borrower to the Lender. As of the date hereof, this Note shall be deemed to be the Revolving Credit Facility Note referred to in the Agreement and shall evidence the indebtedness incurred under, and be entitled to the benefits of, the Agreement. All terms used and not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default set forth in the Agreement, the entire unpaid balance of principal and accrued interest of this Note and all other amounts due under the Agreement shall, at the option of the Lender, be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived.
Until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the outstanding principal balance hereunder shall bear interest at the rates and shall be payable at the times and in the manner set forth in the Agreement. Subsequent to maturity, including after judgment, or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default set forth in the Agreement, interest on the outstanding principal balance hereunder shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the Base Rate plus five percent (5%) and shall be payable on demand.
Time is of the essence of this Note. All payments of principal and interest shall be made in full in lawful money of the United States of America, without set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding for any reason whatsoever, at the offices of the Lender, or at such other place as may be directed by the Lender.
In the event any interest rate applicable hereto is in excess of the highest rate allowable under applicable law, then the rate of such interest will be reduced to the highest rate
not in excess of such maximum allowable interest and any excess previously paid by Borrower shall be deemed to have been applied against principal.
If Borrower subscribes to the Lender’s cash management services and such services are applicable to the Revolving Loan, the terms of such services shall control the manner in which funds are transferred between the applicable demand deposit account and the Revolving Loan for credit or debit to the line of credit.
UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AUTHORIZES THE PROTHONOTARY OR ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD IN PENNSYLVANIA OR ELSEWHERE TO APPEAR FOR AND CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER FOR ANY AND ALL AMOUNTS UNPAID ON THIS NOTE AND UNDER THE AGREEMENT, INCLUDING INTEREST THEREON TO DATE OF PAYMENT (SUCH AMOUNT AND THE OCCURRENCE OF SUCH EVENT OF DEFAULT TO BE AS EVIDENCED BY A COMPLAINT OR AN AFFIDAVIT SIGNED BY AN OFFICER OF THE LENDER) TOGETHER WITH FEES OF COUNSEL, DISBURSEMENTS AND COSTS OF SUIT, AS SET FORTH BELOW, RELEASING ALL ERRORS AND WAIVING RIGHTS OF APPEAL. IF A COPY OF THIS NOTE, VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT, SHALL HAVE BEEN FILED IN SUCH PROCEEDING, IT SHALL NOT BE NECESSARY TO FILE THE ORIGINAL AS A WARRANT OF ATTORNEY. THE BORROWER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO ANY STAY OF EXECUTION AND THE BENEFIT OF ALL EXEMPTION LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN EFFECT. NO SINGLE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT AND POWER TO CONFESS JUDGMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO EXHAUST THIS POWER, WHETHER OR NOT ANY SUCH EXERCISE SHALL BE HELD BY ANY COURT TO BE INVALID, VOIDABLE OR VOID, BUT THIS POWER SHALL CONTINUE UNDIMINISHED AND MAY BE EXERCISED FROM TIME TO TIME AS OFTEN AS THE LENDER SHALL ELECT UNTIL THIS NOTE AND ALL SUMS DUE UNDER THIS NOTE AND THE AGREEMENT SHALL HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL.
If the Lender should engage legal counsel in the course of collection of this Note upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender all fees and disbursements reasonably incurred by such counsel and all costs of suit.
