     Payments. Each of the undersigned, jointly and severally, promises to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan evidenced hereby from the date of such Revolving Credit Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are set forth in the Loan Agreement, including any applicable Default Rate, until the payment in full thereof. Without in any way limiting Bank’s right at any time to demand payment of the entire principal balance under this Note and all interest accrued thereon upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, which right is absolute and unconditional, the entire unpaid principal balance under this Note, together with all interest accrued thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, without notice, presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, or any notice of any kind. Each of the undersigned, jointly and severally, promises to pay on demand, interest on any overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest from their due dates at the rate or rates provided in the Loan Agreement or this Note. Each of the undersigned, jointly and severally, promise to pay in accordance with the terms set forth in the Loan Agreement, the amount by which Advances extended hereunder exceed the Commitment Sublimit. Both principal and interest in respect of

     Collateral. Each Borrower has executed certain “Credit Documents” (as defined in the Loan Agreement). The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is secured by all of the Credit Documents, and all of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in all of the Credit Documents are hereby made a part of and incorporated into this Note by this reference. Reference is hereby made to the Credit Documents for a description of the collateral covered thereby and the rights of Bank and the obligations of each Borrower in respect thereto, but neither this reference to the Credit Documents nor any provisions thereof shall affect or impair the obligation of each Borrower jointly and severally to pay the principal and interest of this Note and all other sums or charges hereunder when due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

     Business Loan. Each Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges and represents that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is a “business loan” within the meaning of Chapter 1343 of the Ohio Revised Code.

Each Borrower hereby jointly and severally waives, in favor of Bank, any and all rights of contribution, subrogation, exoneration and any similar rights and interest so long as any amount evidenced by this Note, together with any additional amount secured by any of the Credit Documents, remains unpaid.

Each Borrower agrees that venue is proper in either of said courts.

     No delay on the part of the holder of this Note in the exercise of any power or right under this Note, or any of the other Credit Documents or under any other instrument executed pursuant hereto, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise of any other power or right. Enforcement by the holder of this Note or any security for the payment thereof shall not constitute any election by it of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other remedy available to it.

     Successors and Assigns. Each Borrower agrees that this Note shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by Bank or its endorsees, transferees, successors and assigns, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against each Borrower and their respective heirs, administrators, representatives, successors and assigns.

     Warrant of Attorney. Borrowers and each of them authorize any attorney-at-law to appear in any court of record in the State of Ohio or in any other state or territory of the United States at any time after this Note becomes due, whether at stated maturity, accelerated maturity or otherwise, to waive the issuing and service of process and to enter an appearance and to confess judgment against Borrowers or either of them in favor of Bank or the holder hereof for the amount due, together with interest, expenses, the costs of suit and reasonable counsel fees, and thereupon to release and waive all errors, rights of appeal and stays of execution. This warrant of attorney shall survive the dissolution or death of a Borrower. Such authority shall not be exhausted by one exercise, but judgment may be confessed from time to time as any sums and/or costs, expenses or reasonable counsel fees shall be due as if a prior judgment is vacated, by filing an original or a photostatic copy of this Note. Borrowers jointly and severally agree that the attorney for Bank may confess judgment pursuant to this warrant of attorney and receive a fee from Bank for the same, and Borrowers jointly and severally expressly consent to the same and waive any conflict of interest arising therefrom.

THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO BANK AND BORROWERS TO EXECUTE AND DELIVER THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS. IT SHALL NOT IN ANY WAY AFFECT, WAIVE, LIMIT, AMEND OR MODIFY BANK’S ABILITY TO PURSUE ITS REMEDIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT OR COGNOVIT PROVISION CONTAINED IN THIS NOTE OR THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS.
