2.         The Borrower clearly and specifically acknowledges, understands and agrees that:

            (b)            THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS ALSO CONTAIN PROVISIONS PERMITTING THE BANK TO FORECLOSE UPON, ATTACH, LEVY OR TAKE POSSESSION OR OTHERWISE SEIZE PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER, IN FULL OR PARTIAL PAYMENT OF THE JUDGMENT, WITHOUT EITHER NOTICE OR A HEARING.

 

            (c)            BY SIGNING THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS CONTAINING THE CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSES, THE BORROWER WILL GIVE UP THE RIGHT TO ANY NOTICE OR OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD PRIOR TO THE ENTRY OF A CONFESSED JUDGMENT ON THE RECORDS OF THE COURT.

            (e)            BY SIGNING THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS CONTAINING THE CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSES, THE BORROWER WILL SUBJECT CERTAIN OF THE BORROWER’S ASSETS TO EXECUTION (AND SHERIFF'S SALE), AFTER THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.

 

            (f)            BY SIGNING THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS CONTAINING THE CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSES, THE BORROWER WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CHALLENGE SUCH JUDGMENT, SHOULD THE BANK ENTER IT EXCEPT BY PROCEEDING TO OPEN OR STRIKE THE JUDGMENT; AND SUCH A PROCEEDING MAY RESULT IN ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS WHICH THE BORROWER MAY HAVE TO PAY.

 

3.         THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES, KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS THAT IT IS THE CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSE(S) IN THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS WHICH GIVE(S) THE BANK THE RIGHTS ENUMERATED IN SUBPARAGRAPHS (a) THROUGH (f) OF PARAGRAPH 2 ABOVE.  IF THE BORROWER DOES NOT SIGN THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS WHICH CONTAIN CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSE(S), THE BORROWER UNDERSTANDS THAT THE BORROWER WOULD HAVE THE FOLLOWING RIGHTS:

 

            (a)            THE RIGHT TO HAVE NOTICE AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD PRIOR TO ENTRY OF JUDGMENT.

 

            (b)            THE RIGHT TO HAVE THE BANK BEAR THE BURDEN OF PROVING A DEFAULT BEFORE THE BORROWER'S PROPERTY COULD BE EXPOSED TO EXECUTION ON THE JUDGMENT.

 

            (c)            THE RIGHT TO AVOID THE ADDITIONAL EXPENSE OF ATTORNEY'S FEES AND COSTS INCIDENT TO THE OPENING OR STRIKING OFF OF A CONFESSED JUDGMENT.

 

4.         The BORROWER, with full and complete understanding of these rights, NEVERTHELESS FREELY, KNOWINGLY, INTELLIGENTLY AND VOLUNTARILY CHOOSES TO SIGN THE CONFESSION DOCUMENTS WITH THE INTENTION BEING TO GIVE UP, WAIVE, RELINQUISH, AND ABANDON THE BORROWER’S KNOWN RIGHTS (AS DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH 3 ABOVE) AND TO BE SUBJECT TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH 2 ABOVE.
