Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate as provided for herein shall exceed the maximum lawful rate which may be contracted for, charged, taken or received by the Holder in accordance with any applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), the rate of interest applicable to this Debenture shall be limited to the Maximum Rate.  To the greatest extent permitted under applicable law, the Company hereby waives and agrees not to allege or claim that any provisions of this Note could give rise to or result in any actual or potential violation of any applicable usury laws.

 

SECTION 6.4                                           Remedies Not Waived.  No course of dealing between the Company and the Holder or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver by the Holder.

 

SECTION 6.5                                            Remedies.  The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Debenture will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Debenture, that the Holder shall be entitled to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Debenture and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
