shall be due and payable in full on Maturity.
This Note is the Revolving Credit Note issued pursuant to the terms and
provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and this Note and the holder hereof
are entitled to all of the benefits provided for in the Amended Credit
Agreement, or are referred to therein. Reference is made to the Amended Credit
Agreement for a statement of the terms and conditions under which this
indebtedness was incurred and is to be repaid and under which the due date of
this Note may be accelerated. The provisions of the amended Credit Agreement are
hereby incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as if fully set
forth herein. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this
Note shall have the meanings given to them in the Amended Credit Agreement.
This Note is secured by a Joint Restated and Amended Security Agreement

and notice of nonpayment, all of which Borrower hereby expressly waives, declare
the indebtedness evidenced hereby and all other indebtedness and obligations of
the Borrower to the Bank or holder hereof immediately due and payable and the
Bank or other holder hereof may, without notice, immediately exercise any right
of setoff and enforce any lien or security interest securing payment hereof. The
foregoing shall be in addition to the rights of acceleration that may be
provided in any loan agreement, security agreement, mortgage and/or other
writing relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby. If this Note is placed
with any attorney(s) for collection upon any default, the Borrower agrees to pay
to the Bank or holder, its reasonable attorneys' fees and all lawful costs and
expenses of collection, whether or not a suit is commenced.
Time is of the essence. No delay or omission on the part of the Bank or
other holder hereof in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as
a waiver of such right or of any other right or remedy under this Note or any
other document or agreement executed in connection herewith. All waivers by the
Bank must be in writing to be effective and a waiver on any occasion shall not
be construed as a bar to or a waiver of any similar right or remedy on a future
occasion.
Any deposits or other sums at any time credited by or due from the Bank
to any maker, endorser or guarantor hereof and any securities or other property
of any maker, endorser, or guarantor hereof in the possession of the Bank or
other holder of this Note may at all times be held and treated as collateral
security for the payment of this Note. The Bank or other holder hereof may apply
or set off such deposits or other sums against the obligations hereunder at any
time in case of makers, but only with respect to matured liabilities in the case
of endorsers or guarantors.
