     2. Address for Payment. All payments due under this Note shall be payable at c/o Towne
Realty, Inc., 710 N. Plankinton Avenue, #1200, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53203, or such other place as
may be designated by written notice to Borrower from or on behalf of Lender.



     3. Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:



     (a) Short Month Interest. If disbursement of principal is made by Lender to Borrower on any
day other than the first day of the month, interest for the period beginning on the Disbursement
Date and ending on and including the last day of the month in which such disbursement is made shall
be payable simultaneously with the execution of this Note.



     (b) Interest Computation. Interest under this Note shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.



     (c)  Monthly Installments Consecutive monthly installments of interest only, each in
the amount of Thirty-three Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars (US $33,250.00) (or such
lesser amount as may be applicable from and after any partial prepayment of any
principal of the Loan, as calculated by Lender based on the remaining principal balance
at the Interest Rate in accordance with Paragraph 3(b) hereof), shall be payable on the
First Payment Date and on the first day of every month thereafter, until the entire
unpaid principal balance evidenced by this Note is fully paid. The entire principal
balance and accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
The unpaid principal balance shall continue to bear interest after the Maturity Date at
the Default Rate set forth in this Note until and including the date on which it is
paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either Extension Option (as defined
and described in Paragraph 3(f) below) is exercised by the Borrower, then (i) the
monthly payments required herein will be payable through September 1, 2015, (ii)
thereafter, consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest will be payable
as provided in Paragraph 3(f) below, (iii) any remaining principal and interest shall
be due and payable on the first day of the month that is one year after the Maturity
Date (the “First Extended Maturity Date”) or one year after the First Extended Maturity
Date (the “Second Extended Maturity Date”), as applicable, and (iv) any reference to
the term “Maturity Date” contained in this Note or in any other Loan Document will be
deemed to be a reference to the First Extended Maturity Date or the Second Extended
Maturity Date, as applicable.



     (d) Payments Before Due Date. Any regularly scheduled monthly installment of interest that is
received by Lender before the date it is due shall be deemed to have been received on the due date
solely for the purpose of calculating interest due.



     (e) Accrued Interest. Any accrued interest remaining past due for 30 days or more shall be
added to and become part of the unpaid principal balance and shall bear interest at the rate or
rates specified in this Note if and to the extent permitted by Illinois law. Any reference herein
to “accrued



Page 2









 




interest” shall refer to accrued interest which has not become part of the unpaid principal
balance. Any amount added to principal pursuant to the Loan Documents shall bear interest at the
applicable rate or rates specified in this Note and shall be payable with such interest upon demand
by Lender and absent such demand, as provided in this Note for the payment of principal and
interest.




     (f) Extension Option. The Borrower shall have two (2) successive options (each, an “Extension
Option”) to extend the Maturity Date of this Note, each for a one-year period beginning on the
Maturity Date and ending on the First Extended Maturity Date (the “First Extension Period”) and
beginning on the First Extended Maturity Date and ending on the Second Extended Maturity Date (the
“Second Extension Period”), as applicable, on the following terms and conditions:




     (1) No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or any event which,
with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event
of Default).




     (2) Borrower provides to the Lender, at least 60 days, but not more than 90
days, prior to the Maturity Date or the First Extended Maturity Date, as applicable,
written notice (in the manner specified in the Security Instrument for giving
notices) that it intends to exercise an Extension Option.




     (3) On the initial Maturity Date, Borrower pays to an extension fee in the
amount of twenty-five (25) basis points on the then outstanding principal balance of
the loan for the First Extension Period and, if applicable, on the First Extended
Maturity Date, Borrower pays to an extension fee in the amount of twenty-five (25)
basis points on the then outstanding principal balance of the loan for the Second
Extension Period. For example, if the principal balance at the Maturity Date is Six
Million Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars (US $6,650,000), then the extension fee
would be Sixteen Thousand Hundred Twenty-Five Dollars (US $16,625).




     (4) During the First Extension Period and, if applicable, the Second Extension
Period, interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note at the
Adjustable Rate. The Adjustable Rate shall change on each Rate Change Date (defined
below) until the loan is repaid in full. The Adjustable Rate shall be the rate per
annum that is equal to the sum of (i) the Current Index (defined below), and (ii)
the Margin (defined below), which sum is then rounded to three decimal places;
provided, however, that in no event shall the Adjustable Rate be less than the
Interest Rate. Accrued interest on this Note shall be paid in arrears.




     (5) Consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, each in the
amount of the Required Monthly Payment (defined below), shall be due and payable on
the first day of the month following the initial Maturity Date or, if applicable,
the First Extended Maturity Date, and on the first day of each month thereafter,
until the entire unpaid principal balance evidenced by this Note is fully paid. Any
remaining principal and interest, if not sooner paid, shall be due and payable on
the First Extended Maturity Date or the Second Extended Maturity Date, as
applicable. The initial Required Monthly Payment shall be the amount required to
pay the unpaid principal balance of this Note in equal monthly installments,
including accrued interest at the Adjustable Rate over the Remaining Amortization
Period (defined below). Thereafter, to the extent that the Adjustable Rate has
changed or partial prepayments of principal are made by Borrower, the Required
Monthly Payment shall change on each Payment Change Date, and shall be in



Page 3









 






such amount as shall cause the unpaid principal balance of the Note to be amortized
over the Remaining Amortization Period (defined below). The Required Monthly
Payment shall be calculated utilizing a 30/360 interest calculation payment schedule
whether the amount allocated to interest on the loan is based on a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months or on a 360-day year consisting of the actual
number of days in each month. The amount of the Required Monthly Payment that is
allocated to interest shall be calculated utilizing the accrual method set forth in
Paragraph 3(b) above. The balance of the Required Monthly Payment will be allocated
to principal and such amount will vary depending on the amount of the Required
Monthly Payment that is allocated to interest.




     (6) Before each Payment Change Date, Lender shall re-calculate the Adjustable
Rate and shall notify Borrower (in the manner specified in the Security Instrument
for giving notices) of any change in the Adjustable Rate and the Required Monthly
Payment.




     (7) If Lender at any time determines, in its sole but reasonable discretion,
that it has miscalculated the amount of the Required Monthly Payment (whether
because of a miscalculation of the Adjustable Rate or otherwise), then Lender shall
give notice to Borrower of the corrected amount of the Required Monthly Payment (and
the corrected Adjustable Rate, if applicable) and (i) if the corrected amount of the
Required Monthly Payment represents an increase, then Borrower shall, within 30
calendar days thereafter, pay to Lender any sums that Borrower would have otherwise
been obligated under this Note to pay to Lender had the amount of the Required
Monthly Payment not been miscalculated, or (ii) if the corrected amount of the
Required Monthly Payment represents a decrease thereof and Borrower is not otherwise
in breach or default under any of the terms and provisions of the Note, the Security
Instrument or any other loan document evidencing or securing the Note, then Borrower
shall thereafter be paid the sums that Borrower would not have otherwise been
obligated to pay to Lender had the amount of the Required Monthly Payment not been
miscalculated.




     (8) For purposes of this Section, the following definitions shall apply:




     Current Index: The published Index that is effective on the 5th full
business day before the applicable Rate Change Date.




     Index: The “prime rate” (or “base rate”) reported in the Money Rates
column or section of The Wall Street Journal published on the 5th
full business day preceding the applicable Rate Change Date as having been
the rate in effect for corporate loans at large U.S. money center commercial
banks (whether or not such rate has actually been charged by any such bank)
or, if The Wall Street Journal ceases publication of such “prime rate” or
“base rate, “ the annual rate of interest announced by JP Morgan Chase Bank
(or another financial institution with a main or branch office in New York,
New York, selected, from time to time, by Lender) from time to time as its
“prime rate” or “base rate” in effect at its principal office in New York,
New York at 5:00 p.m., New York City time for such date.




     Margin: 2.00%




     Original Amortization Period: 300 months.



Page 4









 






     Payment Change Date: The first day of the month following each Rate
Change Date until this Note is repaid in full.




     Rate Change Date: The initial Maturity Date or the First Extended
Maturity Date, as applicable, and the first day of each month thereafter
until this Note is repaid in full.




     Remaining Amortization Period: As of the initial Maturity Date and the
applicable Payment Change Date thereafter, the Original Amortization Period
minus the number of scheduled monthly payments that have elapsed since the
initial Maturity Date.



     4. Application of Payments. If at any time Lender receives, from Borrower or otherwise, any
amount applicable to the Indebtedness which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time,
Lender may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order
determined by Lender, in Lender’s discretion. Borrower agrees that neither Lender’s acceptance of
a payment from Borrower in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor
Lender’s application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of
the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.



     5. Security. The Indebtedness is secured, among other things, by the Security Instrument, and
reference is made to the Security Instrument for other rights of Lender concerning the collateral
for the Indebtedness.



     6. Acceleration. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire unpaid
principal balance, any accrued interest, the prepayment premium payable under Paragraph 10, if any,
and all other amounts payable under this Note and any other Loan Document shall at once become due
and payable, at the option of Lender, without any prior notice to Borrower. Lender may exercise
this option to accelerate regardless of any prior forbearance.



     7. Late Charge. If any monthly installment due hereunder is not received by Lender on or
before the 10th day of each month or if any other amount payable under this Note or
under the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document is not received by Lender within 10 days
after the date such amount is due, counting from and including the date such amount is due,
Borrower shall pay to Lender, immediately and without demand by Lender, a late charge equal to 5
percent of such monthly installment or other amount due. Borrower acknowledges that its failure to
make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the
Loan and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional expenses.
Borrower agrees that the late charge payable pursuant to this Paragraph represents a fair and
reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Note, of
the additional expenses Lender will incur by reason of such late payment. The late charge is
payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any interest payable at the Default Rate pursuant to
Paragraph 8.



     8. Default Rate. So long as any monthly installment or any other payment due under this Note
remains past due for 30 days or more, interest under this Note shall accrue on the unpaid principal
balance from the earlier of the due date of the first unpaid monthly installment or other payment
due, as applicable, at the Default Rate. If the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest
are not paid in full on the Maturity Date, the unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest
shall bear interest from the Maturity Date at the Default Rate. Borrower also acknowledges that
its failure to make timely payments



Page 5









 




will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan, that, during
the time that any monthly installment or payment under this Note is delinquent for more than 30
days, Lender will incur additional costs and expenses arising from its loss of the use of the money
due and from the adverse impact on Lender’s ability to meet its other obligations and to take
advantage of other investment opportunities, and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to
determine those additional costs and expenses. Borrower also acknowledges that, during the time
that any monthly installment or other payment due under this Note is delinquent for more than 30
days, Lender’s risk of nonpayment of this Note will be materially increased and Lender is entitled
to be compensated for such increased risk. Borrower agrees that the increase in the rate of
interest payable under this Note to the Default Rate represents a fair and reasonable estimate,
taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Note, of the additional costs
and expenses Lender will incur by reason of the Borrower’s delinquent payment and the additional
compensation Lender is entitled to receive for the increased risks of nonpayment associated with a
delinquent loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Extension Option is exercised by the
Borrower, so long as any monthly installment or any other payment due under this Note remains past
due for 30 days or more, interest under this Note shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance from
the earlier of the due date of the first unpaid monthly installment or other payment due, as
applicable, at the Default Rate which is equal to the lesser of 4 percentage points above the
then-current Adjustable Rate or the maximum interest rate which may be collected from Borrower
under applicable law.




     9. Limits on Personal Liability.



     (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 9, Borrower shall have no personal
liability under this Note, the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document for the repayment of
the Indebtedness or for the performance of any other obligations of Borrower under the Loan
Documents, and Lender’s only recourse for the satisfaction of the Indebtedness and the performance
of such obligations shall be Lender’s exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the
Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Security Instrument) and any other collateral
held by Lender as security for the Indebtedness. This limitation on Borrower’s liability shall not
limit or impair Lender’s enforcement of its rights against any guarantor of the Indebtedness or any
guarantor of any obligations of Borrower.



     (b) Borrower shall be personally liable to Lender for the repayment of a portion of the
Indebtedness equal to any loss or damage suffered by Lender as a result of:




     (1) failure of Borrower to pay to Lender upon demand after an Event of Default, all
Rents to which Lender is entitled under Section 3(a) of the Security Instrument and the
amount of all security deposits collected by Borrower from tenants then in residence;




     (2) failure of Borrower to apply all insurance proceeds and condemnation proceeds as
required by the Security Instrument;




     (3) failure of Borrower to comply with Section 14(d) or (e) of the Security Instrument
relating to the delivery of books and records, statements, schedules and reports;




     (4) fraud or written material misrepresentation by Borrower, Key Principal or any
officer, director, partner, member or employee of Borrower in connection with the creation
of the Indebtedness or any request for any action or consent by Lender;




     (5) failure to apply Rents, first, to the payment of reasonable operating expenses and
then to Debt Service Amounts, except that Borrower will not be personally liable (i) to the
extent



Page 6









 






that Borrower lacks the legal right to direct the disbursement of such sums because of
a bankruptcy, receivership or similar judicial proceeding, or (ii) with respect to Rents
that are distributed in any calendar year if Borrower has paid all operating expenses and
Debt Service Amounts for that calendar year; or




     (6) failure by Borrower to comply with the provisions of Section 17(a)(1) of the
Security Instrument.



     (c) Borrower shall become personally liable to Lender for the repayment of all of the
Indebtedness upon the occurrence of any of the following Events of Default:




     (1) Borrower’s acquisition of any property or operation of any business not permitted
by Section 33 of the Security Instrument;




     (2) a Transfer that is an Event of Default under Section 21 of the Security Instrument;
or




     (3) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event (but only if the Bankruptcy Event occurs with
the consent, encouragement or active participation of Borrower, Key Principal or any
Borrower Affiliate).



     (d) To the extent that Borrower has personal liability under this Paragraph 9, Lender may
exercise its rights against Borrower personally without regard to whether Lender has exercised any
rights against the Mortgaged Property or any other security, or pursued any rights against any
guarantor, or pursued any other rights available to Lender under this Note, the Security
Instrument, any other Loan Document or applicable law. For purposes of this Paragraph 9, the term
“Mortgaged Property” shall not include any funds that (1) have been applied by Borrower as required
or permitted by the Security Instrument prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (2)
Borrower was unable to apply as required or permitted by the Security Instrument because of a
bankruptcy, receivership, or similar judicial proceeding.



     10. Voluntary and Involuntary Prepayments.



     (a) No prepayment premium shall be payable in connection with any prepayment made under this
Note. Borrower may voluntarily prepay all or less than all of the unpaid principal balance of this
Note at any time provided that Borrower must give Lender at least 10 days (if given via U.S. Postal
Service) or 5 days (if given via facsimile, email or overnight courier), but not more than 60 days,
prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to make a prepayment (the “Prepayment Notice”). The
Prepayment Notice shall be given in writing (via facsimile, email, U.S. Postal Service or overnight
courier) and addressed to Lender. The Prepayment Notice shall include, at a minimum, the Business
Day upon which Borrower intends to make the prepayment (the “Intended Prepayment Date”). Any
prepayment shall be made by paying (A) the amount of principal being prepaid, (B) all accrued
interest, and (C) all other sums due Lender at the time of such prepayment.



     (b) In furtherance of the provisions of Paragraph 10(a), no prepayment premium shall be
payable with respect to any prepayment occurring as a result of the application of any insurance
proceeds or condemnation award under the Security Instrument.



     11. Costs and Expenses. Borrower shall pay on demand all expenses and costs, including fees
and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation, incurred
by



Page 7









 




Lender as a result of any default under this Note or in connection with efforts to collect any
amount due under this Note, or to enforce the provisions of any of the other Loan Documents,
including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding
(including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial
or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.




     12. Forbearance. Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under this Note,
the Security Instrument, or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall
not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance
by Lender of any payment after the due date of such payment, or in an amount which is less than the
required payment, shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to require prompt payment when due of all
other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt
payment. Enforcement by Lender of any security for Borrower’s obligations under this Note shall
not constitute an election by Lender of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right
or remedy available to Lender.



     13. Waivers. Presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of acceleration, notice
of intent to demand or accelerate payment or maturity, presentment for payment, notice of
nonpayment, grace, and diligence in collecting the Indebtedness are waived by Borrower, Key
Principal, and all endorsers and guarantors of this Note and all other third party obligors.



     14. Loan Charges. Borrower agrees to pay an effective rate of interest equal to the sum of
the interest rate provided for in this Note and any additional rate of interest resulting from any
other charges of interest or in the nature of interest paid or to be paid in connection with the
loan evidenced by this Note and any other fees or amounts to be paid by Borrower pursuant to any of
the other Loan Documents. Neither this Note nor any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed
to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest
at a rate greater than the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged under applicable law. If
any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from
Borrower in connection with the Loan is interpreted so that any interest or other charge provided
for in any Loan Document, whether considered separately or together with other charges provided for
in any other Loan Document, violates that law, and Borrower is entitled to the benefit of that law,
that interest or charge is hereby reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate that violation. The
amounts, if any, previously paid to Lender in excess of the permitted amounts shall be applied by
Lender to reduce the unpaid principal balance of this Note. For the purpose of determining whether
any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from
Borrower has been violated, all Indebtedness that constitutes interest, as well as all other
charges made in connection with the Indebtedness that constitute interest, shall be deemed to be
allocated and spread ratably over the stated term of the Note. Unless otherwise required by
applicable law, such allocation and spreading shall be effected in such a manner that the rate of
interest so computed is uniform throughout the stated term of the Note.



     15. Commercial Purpose. Borrower represents that the Indebtedness is being incurred by
Borrower solely for the purpose of carrying on a business or commercial enterprise, and not for
personal, family or household purposes.



     16. Counting of Days. Except where otherwise specifically provided, any reference in this
Note to a period of “days” means calendar days, not Business Days.



     17. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by the law of the jurisdiction in which the
Land is located.



Page 8









 





     18. Captions. The captions of the paragraphs of this Note are for convenience only and shall
be disregarded in construing this Note.



     19. Notices. All notices, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given
by Lender to Borrower pursuant to this Note shall be given in accordance with Section 31 of the
Security Instrument.



     20. Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. Borrower and Key Principal each agrees that any
controversy arising under or in relation to this Note shall be litigated exclusively in the
Property Jurisdiction. The state and federal courts and authorities with jurisdiction in the
Property Jurisdiction shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all controversies which shall arise
under or in relation to this Note. Borrower and Key Principal each irrevocably consents to
service, jurisdiction, and venue of such courts for any such litigation and waives any other venue
to which it might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise.



     21. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. BORROWER, KEY PRINCIPAL AND LENDER EACH (A) AGREES NOT TO ELECT
A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ISSUE ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE
PARTIES AS LENDER, KEY PRINCIPAL AND BORROWER THAT IS TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY A JURY AND (B) WAIVES ANY
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ISSUE TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT EXISTS NOW OR
IN THE FUTURE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS SEPARATELY GIVEN BY EACH PARTY, KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY WITH THE BENEFIT OF COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL.



     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has signed and delivered this Note or has caused this Note to be
signed and delivered by its duly authorized representative.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT OF KEY PRINCIPAL TO

PERSONAL LIABILITY FOR EXCEPTIONS TO NON-RECOURSE LIABILITY





     Key Principal, who has an economic interest in Borrower or who will otherwise obtain a
material financial benefit from the Loan, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees
to pay to Lender, or its assigns, on demand, all amounts for which Borrower is personally liable
under Paragraph 9 of the Purchase Money Note to which this Acknowledgment is attached (the “Note”).
The obligations of Key Principal shall survive any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale,
any delivery of any deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release of record of the Security
Instrument. Lender may pursue its remedies against Key Principal without first exhausting its
remedies against the Borrower or the Mortgaged Property. All capitalized terms used but not defined
in this Acknowledgment shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Security Instrument. As
used in this Acknowledgment, the term “Key Principal” (each if more than one) shall mean only those
individuals or entities that execute this Acknowledgment.



     The obligations of Key Principal shall be performed without demand by Lender and shall be
unconditional irrespective of the genuineness, validity, or enforceability of the Note, or any
other Loan Document, and without regard to any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute
a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor. Key Principal hereby waives the benefit
of all principles or provisions of law, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this
Acknowledgment, and agrees that Key Principal’s obligations shall not be affected by any
circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a
guarantor. Key Principal hereby waives the benefits of any right of discharge and all other rights
under any and all statutes or other laws relating to guarantors or sureties, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, diligence in collecting the Indebtedness, presentment, demand for payment,
protest, all notices with respect to the Note including this Acknowledgment, which may be required
by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve Lender’s rights against Key Principal under this
Acknowledgment, including notice of acceptance, notice of any amendment of the Loan Documents,
notice of the occurrence of any default or Event of Default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice
of acceleration, notice of dishonor, notice of foreclosure, notice of protest, notice of the
incurring by Borrower of any obligation or indebtedness and all rights to require Lender to (a)
proceed against Borrower, or (b) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held by Lender to secure
the repayment of the Indebtedness.



     At any time without notice to Key Principal, and without affecting the liability of Key
Principal hereunder, (a) the time for payment of the principal of or interest on the Indebtedness
may be extended or the Indebtedness may be renewed in whole or in part; (b) the time for Borrower’s
performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement contained in the Note, or any other
Loan Document, whether presently existing or hereinafter entered into, may be extended or such
performance or compliance may be waived; (c) the maturity of the Indebtedness may be accelerated as
provided in the Note or any other Loan Document; (d) the Note or any other Loan Document may be
modified or amended by Lender and Borrower in any respect, including an increase in the principal
amount; and (e) any security for the Indebtedness may be modified, exchanged, surrendered or
otherwise dealt with or additional security may be pledged or mortgaged for the Indebtedness.



     Key Principal acknowledges that Key Principal has received a copy of the Note and all other
Loan Documents. Neither this Acknowledgment nor any of its provisions may be waived, modified,
amended, discharged, or terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by the party against
which the enforcement of the waiver, modification, amendment, discharge, or termination is sought,
and then only to the extent set forth in that agreement. Key Principal agrees to notify Lender (in
the manner for
