The Promisor reserves the right to prepay this Note (in whole or in part) prior
to the Due Date with no prepayment penalty.

If any payment obligation under this Note is not paid when due, the Promisor
promises to pay all costs of collection, such as any reasonable cost of travel,

In addition, the Promisor shall be in default if there is a sale, transfer,

payment of this Note, or if there is a default in any security agreement which
secures this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Promisor shall have five (5)
days from the occurrence of an event of default to cure any such default before
the Payee may exercise any of the rights and remedies contained herein.

If any one or more of the provisions of this Note are determined to be

shall remain fully operative.

All payments of principal and interest on this Note shall be paid in the legal
currency of the United States. Promisor waives presentment for payment,
protest, and notice of protest and nonpayment of this Note.

No renewal or extension of this Note, delay in enforcing any right of the Payee
under this Note, or assignment by the Payee of this Note shall affect the
liability of the Promisor. All rights of the Payee under this Note are
cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or consecutively at the Payee's
option.

part hereof; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision or by its severance, except to the extent such
remaining provisions constitute obligations of another party to this Agreement
corresponding to the unenforceable provision.
