the terms of this Note, the Company is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder, at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the interest rate shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum
rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder notwithstanding the other provisions hereof. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be executed on its behalf by the undersigned officer thereunto duly authorized.
