-14-

12.2

Selective Enforcement. In the event the Bank elects to selectively and successively enforce its rights under any one or more of the instruments securing payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Loan Documents, such action will not be deemed a waiver or discharge of any other lien or encumbrance securing payment of such indebtedness until such time as the Bank has been paid in full all sums owing to Bank.

12.3

Waivers; Amendments. No waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Bank and then such waiver, consent or amendment shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Any amendment to the Loan Documents must be in writing signed by the Bank.

12.4

Deposits; Set off.

The rights granted by this paragraph will be in addition to the rights of the Bank under any statutory banker’s lien or right of common law set off.

12.7

Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of the Bank to exercise and no delay in exercising any right hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by the Bank of any right hereunder precludes any other or further right of exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not alternative.

-15-

13. Miscellaneous. It is further agreed as follows:

Nothing in the Loan Documents will entitle any person to be deemed a third party beneficiary thereof. The Bank will have the right to consult with legal counsel of Bank’s choice and to be fully exonerated from liability for any action taken in good faith in accordance with the advice of such legal counsel. Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from any and all liability, loss and expense, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by Bank (a) in complying with or enforcing the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or (b) as a result of any claim made by any party under the laws of any governmental entity, including, but not limited to any state or federal securities or tax laws.

13.6

Construction. This Agreement, the Loan Documents and all other documents issued under this Agreement are intended to be contracts made under the laws of the State of Oklahoma and are to be construed in accordance with the laws of said state. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to constitute the Bank as a joint venturer, with the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other party related thereto or to constitute a partnership. Except for the defined terms which appear in the subparagraphs under Paragraph 1 of this Agreement, the descriptive headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be used in the construction of the content of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be an original instrument, but all of which will constitute one agreement.

13.7

Binding Effect. This Agreement will be binding on the Borrower, each Guarantor or other party who executes same, and their respective successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of the Bank, and the Bank’s respective successors and assigns. Bank may assign its rights hereunder, in part or as a whole, and may assign any Loan Document executed and delivered to Bank.

13.8

Venue and Jurisdiction. It is agreed that the debt evidenced by the Loan Documents was contracted in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, the Note, the Loan Documents and all other instruments of indebtedness are hereby deemed to have been given when received and accepted by the Bank at the Bank’s banking house in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Borrower and each Guarantor hereby waives all objections to venue and consents to the jurisdiction of any state or federal county located in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma or the county in which the Property is situated, in connection with any action instituted by the Bank by reason of or arising out of the execution, deliver, or performance of any of the Loan Documents.

13.9

Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in the Loan Documents should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

-17-

13.10

Usury. It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws now in force. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or in any other instrument or agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Loan Documents, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law and that is contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents (whether designated as interest, fees, indemnities, payments or otherwise) shall under circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and any excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Note by the holder thereof (or, if the Note and all other indebtedness owing under the Loan Documents have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Note is accelerated by reason of an election of the Bank resulting from a Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Note (or, if the Note and all other indebtedness under the Loan Documents have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower). All sections and provisions of this Agreement, the Note, the Loan Documents and the other instruments now or hereafter executed in connection with or as security for any of such agreements or instruments, including without limitation those sections and provisions calling for the calculation of interest on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days, are subject to this paragraph 13.10, which limits the maximum amount of interest. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Bank will not be required to advance any funds if on the date of any proposed advance the prevailing interest rate which the Bank intends to charge (including rates of discount and commissions with respect to bankers acceptance financing) would violate the usury laws of the State of Oklahoma.

13.11

Mistakes — Liquidated Damages. Borrower, Guarantors and each party hereto, hereby expressly waive any mistake, inaccuracy, or misstatement made in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents. Each agrees that the maximum liability which may be incurred by Bank due to any such mistake, inaccuracy, or misstatement shall be collectively Two Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500.00), such sum being agreed upon as liquidated damages collectively available for their total damages hereunder.

-18-

			In addition, in the event the Loan Documents or any one of them misstates or inaccurately reflects the true and correct terms and provisions of said Loan Document(s) and said misstatement or inaccuracy is due to unilateral mistake on the part of Bank, mutual mistake on the part of Bank, Borrower, and/or Guarantors, or clerical error, then in such event, upon request by Bank and in order to correct such misstatement or inaccuracy, the parties hereto, as needed, shall execute such new documents or initial such corrected original documents as Bank may deem necessary to remedy said inaccuracy or mistake. A failure to initial or execute such documents as requested shall constitute a default under the Loan Documents. Furthermore, if, at any time, the USDA requests a correction or modification to any of the Loan documents as a condition precedent to issuance of its Loan Note Guaranty or otherwise, Borrower and Guarantors, as the case may be, shall agree to such modification and execute the appropriate documents to effect such modification as requested by Bank or USDA. A failure to execute such documents as requested shall constitute a default under the Loan Documents.

	13.12		Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents and all documents executed in connection therewith constitute the entire agreement among parties hereto and encompassing their entirety all prior written and oral negotiations, understandings, representations, warranties and agreements among such parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this instrument to be duly executed as of the date first above written.
