any particular instance shall not constitute a waiver thereof in that or any
subsequent instance.  No waiver of any right shall be effective unless
in writing signed by the Payee, and no waiver on one or more occasions shall be
conclusive as a bar to or waiver of any right on any other
occasion.

evidenced hereby be collected by law or through an attorney-at-law, the Payee or
any other holder of this Promissory Note shall, if permitted by applicable law,
