3.8

	
Usury.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Senior Note, or any and all other instruments or documents executed in connection herewith, Holder and the Company intend that the obligations evidenced by this Note conform strictly to the applicable usury laws from time to time in force.  All agreements between the Company and Holder, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, hereby are expressly limited so that in no case, contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder, or collected by Holder, by or on behalf of the Company for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned to the Company hereunder or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein of the Company to Holder, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to such indebtedness evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury law.  If, under any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provisions thereof or any other document, at the time performance of such provisions shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if under any circumstances Holder ever shall receive from or on behalf of the Company an amount deemed interest, by applicable law, which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest under applicable usury laws shall be applied to the reduction of the Company's unpaid Principal owing hereunder and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal and such other indebtedness, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment as a result of an error on the part of Holder and the Company and the party receiving such excess payment shall promptly, upon discovery of such error or upon notice thereof from the party making such payment, refund to the Company or to any other person making such payment on the Company's behalf, and this Note shall be automatically deemed reformed so as to permit only the collection of the maximum non-usurious rate and amount of interest allowed by applicable law.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Holder or any other holders hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread through the full term of this Note.









 




	 	
3.9

	
Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE COMPANY AND HOLDER EACH WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS NOTE OR ANY DOCUMENT OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.
