Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, payments under this Note shall be applied (i) first to the repayment of any sums incurred by Lender for the payment of any expenses in enforcing the terms of this Note, (ii) then to the payment of Interest, and (iii) then to the reduction of the Loan.

7.

Events of Default.  The occurrence of any of following events (each an “Event of Default”), not cured in any applicable cure period, shall constitute an Event of Default of Borrower:

7.1

The failure to make when due any payment described in this Note, the Loan Agreement or the Security Agreement, whether before, on or after the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise; 

7.2

A breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement or the Security Agreement, which, if capable of being cured, is not cured within three days following notice thereof to Borrower or within three days of Borrower becoming aware of such breach; or

8.4

Governing Law.  This Note shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California as applied to agreements entered into and performed entirely within the State of California by residents thereof, without regard to any provisions thereof relating to conflicts of laws among different jurisdictions.

8.5

Waiver and Amendment.  Any term of this Note may be amended, waived or modified only with the written consent of Borrower and Lender.

8.6

Remedies; Costs of Collection; Attorneys’ Fees.  No delay or omission by Lender in exercising any of its rights, remedies, powers or privileges hereunder or at law or in equity and no course of dealing between Lender and the undersigned or any other person shall be deemed a waiver by Lender of any such rights, remedies, powers or privileges, even if such delay or omission is continuous or repeated, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof by Lender or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege by Lender.  The rights and remedies of Lender described herein shall be cumulative and not restrictive of any other rights or remedies available under any other instrument, at law or in equity.  If an Event of Default occurs, Borrower agrees to pay, in addition to the Loan and Interest payable thereon, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any other reasonable costs incurred by Lender in connection with its pursuit of its remedies under this Note.

9.

Default Interest.  Borrower does hereby agree that whenever an Event of Default exists (including upon the failure of Borrower to pay the Loan in full on the Maturity Date), Lender shall be entitled to receive and Borrower shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum and any other amounts due Lender at a rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to the higher of (a) the highest prime rate of interest per annum published in the Money Rate Table of the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal, as adjusted on a daily basis, plus twelve and one-quarter percent (12.25%) per annum, or (b) twenty five (25.00%) per annum, in either case compounded annually.  The Default Rate shall be computed retroactively from the Loan Closing Date until the date Borrower cures the Event of Default and such cure is accepted by Lender.  This charge shall be added to the Loan, and shall be secured by the Security Agreement.  This section, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the 






4






Loan, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.

10.

Savings Clause.  It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that United States federal law permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement.  If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for hereunder or thereunder, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness evidenced hereby and the provisions of this Note, the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Loan Agreement and the Security Agreement, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.

11.

Register. Borrower shall keep a register of this Note as to both principal and any interest. Lender may transfer this Note, but such transfer may only be effected by surrender of this Note to the Borrower by the transferor Lender, and by issuance of a new Note with identical terms (other than the Lender, which shall be the transferee rather than the transferor). This registration requirement is intended to qualify the Note for the portfolio interest exemption of U.S Revenue Code sections 87(h)(2)(B) or 881(c)(2)(B) and shall be interpreted accordingly.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has caused this Note to be signed on the Effective Date.
