The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder, and upon such Event of Default, the entire principal balance outstanding hereunder, together with all accrued interest and other amounts payable hereunder, at the election of Xxxxxx, shall become immediately due and payable, without any notice to Borrower:
