provision of this Note or any other agreement or instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing
or in any way relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall involve the payment of interest

Rate, such amount as would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal
balance remaining unpaid hereunder and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall
control every other provision in any and all other agreements and instruments existing or hereafter
arising between the Company and Holder with respect to the indebtedness evidenced hereby.
