in the Loan Agreement and shall be paid in accordance with the Loan
Agreement.  The entire unpaid principal
balance and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid in full on the

hereunder, then, without limitation on any other right of the Holder, there
shall be a late charge and an augmented interest rate as provided in the Loan

principal balance of this note and all accrued and unpaid interest may become
or be declared due and payable without notice or demand, in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Loan Agreement.

costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,

evidenced, to the extent permitted by law.


 


No delay or omission of the holder in exercising any
right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any such right or
remedy.  Acceptance by the holder of any
payment after acceleration shall not operate as a bar to or waiver of such
acceleration.


 


The holder need not enter payments of principal or
interest upon this note, but may maintain a record thereof on a separate ledger
maintained by the holder.


 


The word “holder” as used in this note shall mean the
payee or indorsee of this note who is in possession of it or the bearer if this
