jurisdiction of such courts. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover

excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of
interest required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum
permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited
against amounts owed by the Borrower to the Holder and thus refunded to the
Borrower.

      3.8.  CONSTRUCTION. Each party acknowledges that its legal counsel
participated in the preparation of this Note and, therefore, stipulates that the
rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be applied in the interpretation of this Note to favor any party
against the other.

      3.9   REDEMPTION. This Note may not be redeemed, called or prepaid without
the consent of the Holder.

      3.10  NON-BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever any payment or any action to be made
