contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of the Borrower to the Lender under
the Loan Documents shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest
shall not be required for any period for which interest is computed to the

Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay the Lender interest at the
highest rate permitted by Applicable Law.
SECTION 3.3.1 Payment Dates. Interest accrued on the Loans shall

interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period
for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days.
Whenever any payment to be made shall otherwise be due on a day which is not a
Business Day, such payment shall (except as otherwise required by clause (c) of
----------
the definition of "Interest Period") be made on the next succeeding Business Day
---------------
and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, if
any, in connection with such payment.
SECTION 3.5 Extension for Loans. So long as no Event of Default shall

have occurred and be continuing, the Lender may at its sole discretion extend
