RECITALS WHEREAS, Lender has determined that it may make one or more loans, advances or other extensions of credit (each an "Advance" and collectively, the "Loan"), in its sole and absolute discretion, to Borrower; WHEREAS, Lender and Borrower desire to set forth the general requirements and conditions for the approval of credit to Borrower applicable to the Loan; and WHEREAS, for each additional extension of credit, Lender may impose additional requirements as it deems necessary for the approval of the credit, terms, the documentation of the associated Advance, and the perfection of Lender's security interests; NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree that it is appropriate to enter into this Master Loan and Security Agreement in order to set forth general terms and conditions that shall be applicable to each Advance and the Loan and to establish the framework for the making of future Advances and the documentation thereof. 1.

Any Commitment, if made at all, shall be made in writing by Lender in either a separate commitment letter, in the written documentation relating to a particular Advance or evidenced by the promissory note relating to such Advance. The drafting of documents relating to a requested Advance, preliminary proposals made to Borrower, or Lender's furnishing of drafts of documents to Borrower, however, shall not signify or be interpreted as the making of a Commitment. No credit Commitment may be extended without the completion of Lender's internal credit approval processes and any such Commitment at the time of an Advance shall only be made upon and evidenced by the completion and execution of written documentation satisfactory to Lender in all respects and in its sole discretion. (c) Advances (if any) shall be made on or before any applicable Commitment termination or expiration date specified by Lender with regard to such Advances or the Loans generally.
