of a demand by LaSalle, pay to LaSalle such amount as may be necessary
to eliminate such excess, and LaSalle shall apply such payment first
against the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans.
Borrower hereby authorizes LaSalle to charge any of Borrower's
accounts to make any payments of principal, interest, fees or
reimbursable expenses required or provided for by this Agreement. All
Revolving Loans shall, in LaSalle's sole discretion, be evidenced by
one or more promissory notes in form and substance satisfactory to

entirety to read as follows:
"(a) RATE OF INTEREST
Interest accrued on all Loans shall be due on the earliest of:

interests and liens created under this Agreement and the Other
Agreements shall survive such termination until the date upon which
payment and satisfaction in full of the Liabilities shall have
occurred. At such time as Borrower has repaid all of the Liabilities
and this Agreement has terminated, (i) Borrower shall deliver to
LaSalle a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
LaSalle, of all obligations and liabilities of LaSalle and its
officers, directors, employees, agents, parents, subsidiaries and
affiliates to Borrower, and if Borrower is obtaining new financing
from another lender, Borrower shall deliver such lender's
indemnification of LaSalle, in form and substance satisfactory to
LaSalle, for checks which LaSalle has credited to Borrower's account,
