securing this Note shall be cumulative and may be pursued singly, successively,
or together against any security held by Holder for payment or security, in the

shall not be a waiver or release of such rights or remedies or the right to
exercise any of them at another time.

"administrative cost fee" of 10% of the principal sum stated above. Moreover, in
such event, the amount of shares for which payment has been received, or at the
