Commitment. However, it is agreed that, should the

to such Revolving Credit Loan, Letter of Credit Obligation
and extensions of credit shall nevertheless constitute
Obligation under this Agreement and shall be entitled to the

date on which such payment is due, Borrower authorizes the
Bank, at its option, to charge such payment as a Revolving
Credit Loan. Each such payment shall be in lawful currency
