extend to Borrower, at the Borrower&#146;s request, the loan(s) described above and may,
in its sole discretion and with no obligation, express or implied, to do so, from time to
time hereafter, extend other loans to Borrower (individually a &#147;Loan&#148; and
collectively the &#147;Loans&#148;). All of the Loans are, together with all other debts,
liabilities and obligations of Borrower to the Lender, direct or indirect, absolute or
contingent, now existing or hereafter arising, hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
&#147;Obligations&#148;. Each Loan is or shall be evidenced by a commercial promissory
note (individually a &#147;Note&#148; and collectively the &#147;Notes&#148;) and each
Loan and all of the other obligations are secured pursuant to a Pledge of Investment
Securities between Borrower and the Lender (the &#147;Pledge&#148;). In connection with
the Loans, the Borrower may execute certain other documents, certificates and agreements,
all of which are, together with this Agreement, the Notes and the Pledge, sometimes
collectively referred to herein as the &#147;Loan Documents&#148;. Each Loan, whether now
existing or hereafter arising, is made upon and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Note evidencing such Loan, the Pledge, the other Loan Documents and this
Agreement. The terms, conditions, representations, warranties and covenants set forth in
this Agreement are in addition to, and not in limitation of, the terms, conditions,
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the other Loan Documents. In the

covenants contained in the Loan Documents, the term, condition, representation, warranty
or covenant which confers the greatest benefit upon the Lender shall control. The
determination as to which term, condition, representation, warranty or covenant is more
beneficial shall be made by the Lender in its sole discretion and shall be binding upon
the Borrower. In the event the Loan Documents are modified in the future, the modified
terms, conditions, representations, warranties and covenants shall control in the event of
