2

(o) Any change in the financial condition or business operation of any Obligor which causes Bank reasonably to believe that the performance of any of the obligations under this or any other agreement with Bank is impaired or doubtful. Borrower understands and agrees that any reference herein to any Default is not intended in any way to diminish, alter, impair, limit or eliminate the ability of Bank to demand payment in full at any time of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note. Borrower agrees that the election by Bank of any right or remedy provided to it upon the occurrence of any Default shall be conclusively presumed to be done in good faith by Bank notwithstanding any prior course of dealing or otherwise, including without limitation the acceptance by Bank of any partial payments on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or other Loan Documents.

5. REMEDIES OF BANK. Upon either (a) the occurrence of a Default, or (b) demand by Bank, Bank may at any time thereafter at Bank’s option without demand or notice to any Obligor accelerate the maturity of any or all Obligations; whereupon such accelerated Obligations shall be immediately due and payable; provided, however, if the Default is based upon a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding commenced by or against any Obligor, all Obligations shall automatically and immediately be due and payable, and Bank may also and without demand or notice as to any Obligor exercise its right of set off and any other rights or remedies granted in any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law against any Obligor, all of which remedies shall be cumulative. No delay or failure by Bank in exercising any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any other right or remedy. Bank shall not be required to marshal any Collateral or guaranty or to resort to same in any particular order. Following maturity (whether by acceleration, upon demand or otherwise) of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or after the entry of judgment, interest under this Note shall be payable upon demand and shall accrue on the principal balance due hereunder (and without limitation on any portion of the Obligations that may be paid in any plan of reorganization) at a rate 3% above the rate stated above. Absent the written agreement of Bank to the contrary, the acceptance by Bank of partial payments after the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall not be deemed a waiver by Bank of its right to be paid immediately all sums due hereunder in full. Borrower shall pay to Bank upon demand all costs of suit and other collection expenses, including without limitation all title search, title insurance, and appraisal costs, and all attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred by Bank, whether before or after the entry of a judgment, as a result of any negotiations or proceeding, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise, involving any Obligor or any Collateral. Bank may also refuse to make any further advances in regard to any Obligation and may terminate any commitment to make an advance under any Obligation.

Borrower hereby waives presentment for payment, demand, protest, notice of protest and dishonor and all other notices or demands in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note. The liability of Borrower hereunder shall be unconditional without regard to the liability of any other party and shall not be in any manner released or otherwise affected by (a) any indulgence, extension of time, compromise, renewal, release, satisfaction, waiver or modification granted or consented to by Bank involving any Obligor or Collateral or (b) the failure of any Obligor to sign any document evidencing any Obligation or the failure of Bank to perfect any security interest or lien in any Collateral. Bank shall not by any act or omission or under any circumstances be deemed to have waived any of its rights other than any rights waived by Bank in writing. Any reference herein to Borrower shall be deemed to refer to and be applicable to each signer separately as well as all of them jointly. Bank is hereby authorized, without further notice, to obtain the signature of additional co-makers and to date this Note as of the date on which the loan is made.
