2. DEFAULTS

The occurrence of any one or more of the following events with respect to Maker shall constitute an event of default hereunder (“Event of
Default”): 
 (a) If Maker shall (i) commence a voluntary insolvency proceeding; (ii) consent to the entry of an order for
relief against it in an involuntary insolvency proceeding; (iii) consent to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, assignee, liquidator or similar official; or (iv) make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors. 

(c) If a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any bankruptcy law that (i) is for relief against Maker in an involuntary
case; (ii) appoints a trustee, receiver, assignee, liquidator or similar official for Maker or substantially all of Maker’s properties; or (iii) orders the liquidation of Maker, and in each case the order or decree is not dismissed

 2.2 NOTICE BY MAKER 

Maker shall notify Payee in writing within five days after the occurrence of any Event of Default of which Maker acquires knowledge. 

2.3 REMEDIES 
 Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default hereunder (unless all Events of Default have been cured or waived by Payee), Payee may, at its option, (i) by written notice to Maker, declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued interest
thereon, immediately due and payable regardless of any prior forbearance and (ii) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under applicable law, including, without limitation, the right to collect from Maker all sums due under
this Note. Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Payee in connection with Payee’s exercise of any or all of its rights and remedies under this Note, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees. 
 3. MISCELLANEOUS 
 3.1 WAIVER 
 The rights and remedies of Payee under this Note shall be cumulative and not
alternative. No waiver by Payee of any right or remedy under this Note shall be effective unless in a writing signed by Payee. Neither the failure nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Note will operate as a waiver of
such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege by Payee will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right of Payee arising out of this Note can be discharged by Payee, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in a writing signed by Payee; (b)
no waiver that may be given by Payee will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on Maker will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of Maker or of the right of Payee to take
further action without notice or demand as provided in this Note. Maker hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor and protest. 







 3.2 NOTICES 
 Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 8(g) of the Agreement. 
 3.3 SEVERABILITY 
 If any provision in this Note is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of

unenforceable.

law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the British Virgin Islands.
