All outstanding Principal of this Note and all interest accrued thereon shall be due and payable in full in accordance with the terms of the Revolving Loan and Security Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement. If Principal and Interest under this Note are not paid in full when due, interest on the unpaid balance shall thereafter by payable at a interest rate per annum as provided in the Term Loan Agreement plus 2%.

Payments of Principal shall each be due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Agreement. Each Principal payment shall be in immediately available funds, at the principal office of the Bank (now located at 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000) or at such other address as the holder of this Note may from time to time designate.

This Note is the note described in (i) a certain Third Amended and Restated Revolving Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan and Security Agreement”), and, (ii) a certain Third Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”), each dated as of May 20, 2006 and each executed by the Borrower in favor of the Bank, and each as amended from time to time thereafter. This Note, is secured by any and all collateral at any time granted to the Bank to secure any obligations of the Borrower to the Bank, including, without limitation, the Collateral described in such Revolving Loan and Security Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement and the trademarks described in an Assignment of Registered Trademarks dated May 24, 2002 and executed by the Borrower in favor of the Bank, as amended by a letter amendment dated as of the date hereof by and between the Borrower and the Bank (the “Assignment”) (the Revolving Loan and Security Agreement, the Term Loan Agreement and the Assignment collectively, the “Agreements”).

The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Bank to make or cause to be made, on a schedule attached to this Note or on the books of the Bank, at or following the time of receipt by the Bank of any payment of Principal, an appropriate notation reflecting such transaction and the then aggregate unpaid balance of principal. Failure of the Bank to make any such notation shall not, however, affect any obligation of any of the Borrowers hereunder or under the Agreements. The unpaid principal balance of this Note, as recorded by the Bank from time to time on such schedule or on such books, shall constitute presumptive evidence of the Principal amount of loan outstanding hereunder.

Every maker, endorser and guarantor hereof or of the indebtedness evidenced hereby (a) waives notice of and consents to any and all advances, settlements, compromises, favors and indulgences (including, without limitation, any extension or postponement of the time for payment), any and all receipts, substitutions, additions, exchanges and releases of collateral, and any and all additions, substitutions and releases of any person primarily or secondarily liable, (b) waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands, notices and suretyship defenses generally, in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of or under this note, and (c) agrees to pay, to the extent permitted by law, all cost and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by the Bank in enforcing this Note and any collateral or security therefor on default, whether or not litigation is commenced.
