The aggregate unpaid principal balance hereof shall not exceed at any time the sum of TEN MILLION and 00/100 Dollar ($10,000,000.00).

Borrower also promises to pay interest to Lender monthly (at the offices of Agent), in arrears, on the first day of each month commencing on May 1, 2008 on the average daily unpaid principal balance of this Note at the rate set forth in Section 3.1 of the Loan Agreement.

This is the "Revolving Note" referred to in the Loan Agreement and is entitled to the benefit of all of the terms and conditions and the security of all of the security interests and liens granted by Borrower or any other person to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, pursuant to the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document including, without limitation, provisions regarding mandatory and optional prepayment rights. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the entire unpaid principal amount owed Lender hereunder shall become immediately due and payable without further notice or demand.
