          principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted,
          now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the

          Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder
          shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on
