The Company agrees that in any action or proceeding instituted to collect or enforce collection of this Note, the entries so endorsed on a schedule to this Note or recorded on the books and records of the holder hereof shall be prima facie evidence (absent manifest error) of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, the status of each such loan from time to time as part of the Base Rate Portion or a LIBOR Portion, and, in the case of any LIBOR Portion, the interest rate and Interest Period applicable thereto.
This Note is issued by the Company under the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, and this Note and the holder hereof are entitled to all of the benefits and security provided for thereby or referred to therein, to which reference is hereby made for a statement thereof.
