ARTICLE I
CREDIT TERMS

 1.    LINE OF CREDIT AND TERM NOTE.

1.1    Line of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including August 31, 2019, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Thirty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($30,000,000.00) ("Line of Credit"), the proceeds of which shall be used by Borrower for working capital and general corporate purpose needs of Borrower and its subsidiaries.  Borrower's obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by the First Replacement Revolving Line of Credit Note ("Line of Credit Note"), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference.  All advances under the Line of Credit shall bear interest at the rates provided for in the Line of Credit Note. Borrower shall pay Bank an annual fee for the Line of Credit, the amount of which shall be determined as follows (the "Annual Fee"): (a) if Borrower's Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is less than 1.00X, the Annual Fee shall be 00.15% of the amount committed; (b) if Borrower's Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is between 1.01X and 2.00X, the Annual Fee shall be 00.20% of the amount committed; and (c) if Borrower's Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is greater than 2.00X, the Annual Fee shall be 00.25% of the amount committed. The Annual Fee shall be determined, pro-rated and payable quarterly, beginning December 15, 2014.  Borrower's Cash Flow Leverage Ratio shall be determined quarterly in accordance with Section 4.9(a) of this Agreement.  

    

1.2    Letter of Credit Subfeature.  As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue standby commercial letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a "Letter of Credit" and collectively, "Letters of Credit"); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued for a term not to exceed three hundred sixty (360) days, as designated by Borrower; provided however, that no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date later than the maturity date of the Line of Credit. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof.  Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable to advances under the Line of Credit.  In such event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing, Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit equal to two percent (2.00%) of the face amount thereof (the “Letter of Credit Issuance Fee”. In addition to the Letter of Credit Issuance Fee, Borrower shall pay Bank (i) fees upon the payment or negotiation of each drawing under any Letter of Credit, and (ii) fees upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter of Credit (including without limitation, the transfer, amendment or cancellation of any Letter of Credit) determined in accordance with Bank's standard fees and charges then in effect for such activity.

1.3    Borrowing and Repayment under Line of Credit.  Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit, which includes outstanding letters of credit, shall not at any time exceed the lesser of the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above, or an amount which would cause Borrower to fail to achieve and maintain the required Asset Coverage Ratio. At all times, Borrower shall maintain an Asset Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.30 to 1.00. “Asset Coverage Ratio” is defined as the sum of all domestic and Canadian Accounts Receivable divided by the outstanding balance of the Line of Credit Note (inclusive of outstanding letters of credit).  As used herein Accounts Receivable shall have the meanings ascribed to such term by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Washington.
    
1.4     Term Note.

("CDR"), pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement between Borrower, CDR and the shareholders of CDR (the "Stock Purchase Agreement").  Borrower's obligation to repay advances under the Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of the date hereof (the "Term Note"), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference.  All advances under the Term Loan shall bear interest at the rates provided for in the Term Note.

1.5    Collection of Payments.

(i)    Any change in control of Borrower or any entity or combination of entities that directly or indirectly control Borrower, with “control” defined as ownership of an aggregate of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the common stock, members’ equity or other ownership interest (other than a limited partnership interest); or if Borrower is a partnership, any withdrawal, resignation or expulsion of any of the general partners in Borrower.

All rights, powers and remedies of Bank may be exercised at any time by Bank and from time to time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, are cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other rights, powers or remedies provided by law or equity.

 7.10.    GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.

    

 7.11.    ARBITRATION.

(a)    Arbitration.  The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit. 

(b)    Governing Rules.  Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in Washington selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein as applicable, as the “Rules”).  If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control.  Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.

(c)    No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure.  The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding.  This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

(d)    Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers.  Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00.  Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of Washington or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of Washington, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim.  In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator's discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of Washington and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Washington Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief. 

(e)    Discovery.  In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules.  All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than twenty (20) days before the hearing date.  Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party's presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

    
(f)    Class Proceedings and Consolidations.  No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity. 

(g)    Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees.  The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.

(h)    Miscellaneous.  To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA.  No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation.  If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.

ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER WASHINGTON LAW.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first written above.

THIS FIRST REPLACEMENT REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT NOTE IS GIVEN IN REPLACEMENT OF AND SUBSTITUTES FOR THAT CERTAIN REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT NOTE GIVEN BY BORROWER TO BANK ON OR ABOUT AUGUST 19, 2009 IN THE ORIGINAL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $20,000,000.00, AS THE SAME HAS BEEN AMENDED AND MODIFIED.

FIRST REPLACEMENT REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT NOTE

$30,000,000.00    Spokane, Washington
September 3, 2014

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, KEY TRONIC CORPORATION, a Washington corporation ("Borrower"), promises to pay to the order of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ("Bank") at its office at 601 West 1st Avenue, Suite 900, Spokane, Washington 99201, or at such other place as the holder hereof may designate, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum of Thirty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($30,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced and be outstanding, with interest thereon, to be computed on each advance from the date of its disbursement as set forth herein.

		
	1.
	DEFINITIONS:

As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth after each, and any other term defined in this First Replacement Revolving Line of Credit Note ("Note") shall have the meaning set forth at the place defined:
    
(a)    "Fixed Rate Margin" means the LIBOR Spread for the applicable interest rate tier as determined in accordance with the following schedule (the "Rate Matrix"): 

	
			
	 
	Cash Flow Leverage Ratio
	LIBOR Spread

	Tier 1
	< 1.00X
	1.75%

	Tier 2
	1.01X to 2.00X
	2.00%

	Tier 3
	>2.00%
	2.25%

Whether Borrower has met the required Cash Flow Leverage Ratio to qualify for the Libor Spread under Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3 shall be determined by reference to Section 4.9(a) of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank dated as of September 3, 2014, as amended from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"). The applicable LIBOR spread will be determined 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter.  

(b)    "LIBOR" means the rate of interest per annum determined by Bank based on the rate for United States dollar deposits for delivery on the first day of each LIBOR Period for a period approximately equal to such LIBOR Period as reported on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 page (or any successor page) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two London Business Days prior to the first day of such LIBOR Period (or if not so reported, then as determined by Bank from another recognized source or interbank quotation).

    

(c)    "LIBOR Period" means a period commencing on a New York Business Day and continuing for one month, three months and six months, as designated by Borrower, during which all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR; provided however, that (i) no LIBOR Period may be selected for a principal amount less than Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), (ii) if the day after the end of any LIBOR Period is not a New York Business Day (so that a new LIBOR Period could not be selected by Borrower to start on such day), then such LIBOR Period shall continue up to, but shall not include, the next New York Business Day after the end of such LIBOR Period, unless the result of such extension would be to cause any immediately following LIBOR Period to begin in the next calendar month in which event the LIBOR Period shall continue up to, but shall not include, the New York Business Day immediately preceding the last day of such LIBOR Period, and (iii) no LIBOR Period shall extend beyond the scheduled maturity date hereof.

(d)    "London Business Day" means any day that is a day for trading by and between banks in Dollar deposits in the London interbank market.

(e)    "New York Business Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in New York are authorized or required by law to close.

(f)    "Prime Rate" means at any time the rate of interest most recently announced within Bank at its principal office as its Prime Rate, with the understanding that the Prime Rate is one of Bank's base rates and serves as the basis upon which effective rates of interest are calculated for those loans making reference thereto, and is evidenced by the recording thereof after its announcement in such internal publication or publications as Bank may designate.

(g)    "State Business Day" means any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in the jurisdiction described in “Governing Law” herein are authorized or required by law to close.

		
	2.
	INTEREST:

(a)     Interest.  The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) as follows as selected by Borrower:  (i) at a fluctuating rate per annum of zero percent (0%) above the Prime Rate, adjusted daily, or (ii) at the LIBOR rate then in effect, plus the LIBOR Spread as determined by the Rate Matrix adjusted at the end of the applicable LIBOR Period. When interest is determined in relation to the Prime Rate, each change in the rate of interest hereunder shall become effective on the date each Prime Rate change is announced within Bank. With respect to each LIBOR selection option selected hereunder, Bank is hereby authorized to note the date, principal amount, interest rate and LIBOR Period applicable thereto and any payments made thereon on Bank's books and records (either manually or by electronic entry) and/or on any schedule attached to this Note, which notations shall be prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information noted.

(b)     Selection of Interest Rate Options. Subject to the provisions herein regarding LIBOR Periods and the prior notice required for the selection of a LIBOR interest rate, (i) at any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, it may be continued by Borrower at the end of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto so that all or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate or to LIBOR for a new LIBOR Period designated by Borrower, (ii) at any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate, Borrower may convert all or a portion thereof so that it bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower, and (iii) at the time an advance is made hereunder, Borrower may choose to have all or a portion thereof bear interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate or to LIBOR for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower.

To select a LIBOR interest rate option hereunder, Borrower shall give Bank notice thereof that is received by Bank prior to 11:00 a.m. Washington time on a State Business Day at least two State Business Days prior to the first day of the LIBOR Period, or at a later time during such State Business Day if Bank, at its sole discretion, accepts Borrower’s notice and quotes a fixed rate to Borrower. Such notice shall specify: (A) the interest rate option selected by Borrower, (B) the principal amount subject thereto, and (C) for each LIBOR selection, the length of the applicable LIBOR Period. If Bank has not received such notice in accordance with the foregoing before an advance is made hereunder or before the end of any LIBOR Period, Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Prime Rate interest selection for such advance or the principal amount to which such LIBOR Period applied.  Any such notice may be given by telephone (or such other electronic method as Bank may permit) so long as it is given in accordance with the foregoing and, with respect to each LIBOR selection, if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three State Business Days after such notice is given. Borrower shall reimburse Bank immediately upon demand for any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of funds obtained to fund or maintain a LIBOR borrowing) incurred by Bank as a result of the failure of Borrower to accept or complete a LIBOR borrowing hereunder after making a request therefor. Any reasonable determination of such amounts by Bank shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.

(c)    Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) costs, expenses and liabilities arising from or in connection with reserve percentages prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for "Eurocurrency Liabilities" (as defined in Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board, as amended), assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR.  In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any LIBOR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  

(d)    Payment of Interest.  When a Prime Rate is selected, interest accrued on this Note shall be payable commencing on October 1, 2014, and on the first day of each month thereafter. When a one (1) or three (3) month Fixed Rate Term is selected, interest shall be payable at the end of each applicable Fixed Rate Term.  When a six (6) month Fixed Rate Term is selected, interest shall be payable on the first State Business Day that is three (3) months after the selection of such six (6) month Fixed Rate Term and on the last day of such six (6) month Fixed Rate Term. 

(e)    Default Interest.  From and after the maturity date of this Note, or such earlier date as all principal owing hereunder becomes due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or at Bank's option upon the occurrence, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at an increased rate per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed) equal to four percent (4%) above the rate of interest from time to time applicable to this Note.

		
	3.
	BORROWING AND REPAYMENT:

(a)    Borrowing and Repayment.  Borrower may from time to time during the term of this Note borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions of this Note and of any document executed in connection with or governing this Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under this Note shall not at any time exceed the principal amount stated above.  The unpaid principal balance of this obligation at any time shall be the total amounts advanced hereunder by the holder hereof less the amount of principal payments made hereon by or for Borrower, which balance may be endorsed hereon from time to time by the holder. The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable in full on August 31, 2019.

    

(b)    Advances.  Advances hereunder, to the total amount of the principal sum stated above, may be made by the holder at the oral or written request of (i) Gwen Nyberg, Penny Sol or Ron Klawitter, any one acting alone, who are authorized to request advances and direct the disposition of any advances until written notice of the revocation of such authority is received by the holder at the office designated above, or (ii) any person, with respect to advances deposited to the credit of any deposit account of Borrower, which advances, when so deposited, shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to or for the benefit of Borrower regardless of the fact that persons other than those authorized to request advances may have authority to draw against such account.  The holder shall have no obligation to determine whether any person requesting an advance is or has been authorized by Borrower. 

(c)    Application of Payments.  Each payment made on this Note shall be credited first, to any interest then due and second, to the outstanding principal balance hereof. All payments credited to principal shall be applied first, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate, if any, and second, to the outstanding principal balance of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR, with such payments applied to the oldest LIBOR Period first.

		
	4.
	PREPAYMENT:

(a)    Prime Rate.  Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to the Prime Rate at any time, in any amount and without penalty.

(b)    LIBOR.  Borrower may prepay principal on any portion of this Note which bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR at any time and in the minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00); provided however, that if the outstanding principal balance of such portion of this Note is less than said amount, the minimum prepayment amount shall be the entire outstanding principal balance thereof. In consideration of Bank providing this prepayment option to Borrower, or if any such portion of this Note shall become due and payable at any time prior to the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto by acceleration or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand a fee which is the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which such LIBOR Period matures, calculated as follows for each such month:

(i)    Determine the amount of interest which would have accrued each month on the amount prepaid at the interest rate applicable to such amount had it remained outstanding until the last day of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto.

(ii)    Subtract from the amount determined in (i) above the amount of interest which would have accrued for the same month on the amount prepaid for the remaining term of such LIBOR Period at LIBOR in effect on the date of prepayment for new loans made for such term and in a principal amount equal to the amount prepaid.

(iii)    If the result obtained in (ii) for any month is greater than zero, discount that difference by LIBOR used in (ii) above.

Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of such amount may result in Bank incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities, and that it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities.  Borrower, therefore, agrees to pay the above-described prepayment fee and agrees that said amount represents a reasonable estimate of the prepayment costs, expenses and/or liabilities of Bank.  If Borrower fails to pay any prepayment fee when due, the amount of such prepayment fee shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate per annum four percent (4.0%) above the Prime Rate in effect from time to time (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed).

		
	5.
	EVENTS OF DEFAULT:

An Event of Default shall have the meaning set forth in Section 6.1 of the Credit Agreement.    

		
	6.
	MISCELLANEOUS:

(a)    Remedies.  Upon [the sale, transfer, hypothecation, assignment or other encumbrance, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of all or any interest in any real property securing this Note, or upon] the occurrence of any Event of Default, the holder of this Note, at the holder's option, may declare all sums of principal and interest outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower, and the obligation, if any, of the holder to extend any further credit hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate.  Borrower shall pay to the holder immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees (to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of the holder's in-house counsel), expended or incurred by the holder in connection with the enforcement of the holder's rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to the holder under this Note, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to this Note, including without limitation, any action for declaratory relief, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Bank or any other person) relating to Borrower or any other person or entity.

(b)    Obligations Joint and Several.  Should more than one person or entity sign this Note as a Borrower, the obligations of each such Borrower shall be joint and several.

(c)    Governing Law.  This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.

ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO FORBEAR ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER WASHINGTON LAW.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Note as of the date first written above.
