B. No Waiver By Lender.  Your course of dealing, or your forbearance from, or delay in, the exercise of any of your rights, remedies, privileges or right to insist upon my strict performance of any provisions contained in this Note, or any other Loan Document, shall not be construed as a waiver by you, unless any such waiver is in writing and is signed by you.


 


14. COMMISSIONS.  I understand and agree that you (or your affiliate) will earn commissions or fees on any insurance products, and may earn such fees on other services that I buy through you or your affiliate.

16. JOINT AND INDIVIDUAL LIABILITY AND SUCCESSORS.  My obligation to pay the Loan is independent of the obligation of any other person who has also agreed to pay it.  You may sue me alone, or anyone else who is obligated on the Loan, or any number of us together, to collect the Loan.  Extending the Loan or new obligations under the Loan, will not affect my duty under the Loan and I will still be obligated to pay the Loan.
