in and shall be deemed to be contracts made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware, and for all purposes
all questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Note and any and all disputes or controversies
arising out of the subject matter hereof (whether by contract, tort or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision (whether
of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than
the State of Florida.


 


13.
Jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HERETO AGREES THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY THE HOLDER PURSUANT TO THIS NOTE
SHALL PROPERLY (BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY) LIE IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA. BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY
OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY
WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVES
ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH ACTION. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER
AGREES THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL

OR RULE OF COURT.


 


14.
No Inconsistent Agreements. No party hereto will hereafter enter into any agreement, which is inconsistent with the rights
granted to the Holder in this Note.


 


15.
Third Parties. Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person
or entity, other than the Holder and its permitted successor and assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Note.


 


16.

17.
Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any provision in this Note to the contrary, the total liability for payments
of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions, or other sums
which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing
this Note or any other applicable law. In the event the total liability of payments of interest and payments in the nature of
interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest,
shall, for any reason whatsoever, result in an effective rate of interest, which for any month or other interest payment period
exceeds the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing this Note, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible
as interest for the period in question shall, without further agreement or notice by, between, or to any party hereto, be applied
to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance due hereunder immediately upon receipt of such sums by the Holder hereof,
with the same force and effect as though the Company had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied to the reduction
of the principal balance then outstanding, and the Holder hereof had agreed to accept such sums as a penalty-free payment of principal;
provided, however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by notice in writing to the Company, to waive,
reduce, or limit the collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest, rather than accept such sums
as a prepayment of the principal balance then outstanding. It is the intention of the parties that the Company does not intend
or expect to pay, nor does the Holder intend or expect to charge or collect any interest under this Note greater than the highest
non-usurious rate of interest which may be charged under applicable law.


 


18.
Entire Agreement. This Note (including any recitals hereto) set forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof, and shall not be modified or affected by any offer, proposal, statement or representation, oral
or written, made by or for any party in connection with the negotiation of the terms hereof, and may be modified only by instruments
signed by all of the parties hereto.
