12.
Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Note or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, Borrower and Lender
intend to conform strictly to the applicable usury laws. In no event shall Lender be entitled to interest exceeding the maximum rate
permitted by law. If the Lender ever receives an amount designated as interest which would exceed the highest lawful rate, the amount
which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note in the inverse order
of maturity, and if this Note is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be paid to Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest
paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law, Borrower and Lender
shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium
rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) “spread” the total amount of
interest throughout the entire term of this Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term hereof.

electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Note.


 


22.
Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Note.


 


23.

not in his individual capacity, but solely as trustee of the trust. The payment and performance of this Note by the trustee and any and

The trustee does not undertake nor will he have any personal liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever in his individual capacity

that Steven R. Morris does not undertake nor will he have any personal liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever in his individual
capacity or in his capacity as grantor or beneficiary of Borrower by virtue of the execution and delivery of this Note in the capacity

is not liable for the payment of this Note.
