4. TIME; WAIVER. Time is of the essence of this Note. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, waive any right hereunder, provided, however, that

presentment, protest and demand and notice of protest, demand, dishonor or nonpayment of this Note, and consent to all renewals and extensions of the time of payment hereof, and further agree that without notice the terms of payment of this Note may
be modified or the security described in the lien documents securing payment of the Note may be released in whole or in part or increased, changed or exchanged by agreement between the holder of this Note and any owner of the property affected by
