the rights and remedies set forth in Article 11 of the Credit Agreement. The
rights and options of Lender under this Note shall be enforced by Agent under
the terms and conditions hereof and of the Credit Agreement.
Time is of the essence in the performance of this Note. To the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, each Maker, for itself and its legal
representatives, successors and assigns, expressly waives presentment, demand,
protest, notice of dishonor, notice of non-payment, notice of maturity, notice
of protest, presentment for the purpose of accelerating maturity, diligence in
collection, and the benefit of any exemption or insolvency laws.
No delay or failure on the part of Agent or Lender in the exercise of
any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an
acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Agent
or Lender of any right or remedy preclude any other right or remedy. Agent, at
its option, may enforce its rights against any collateral securing this Note
without enforcing its rights against any Maker, any guarantor of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby or any other property of any Maker. Each Maker
agrees that, without releasing or impairing such Makers liability hereunder,
Agent may at any time release, surrender, substitute or exchange any collateral
securing this Note and may at any time release any party primarily or
secondarily liable for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.
This Note shall be construed and governed by the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without reference to its conflicts of laws rules.
The provisions of this Note are severable and the invalidity or unenforceability
of any provision shall not alter or impair the remaining provisions of this
Note. No modification hereof shall be binding or enforceable against Lender
unless approved in writing by Xxxxxx.
