Holder may require, from time to time, that Makers issue a revised Note to reflect this new Face Amount, however, notwithstanding any number reflected hereon, the Face Amount and principal balance reflected on Xxxxxx’s books and records will be definitive absent manifest error.
Article 2

Section 2.1
Each Company does hereby further agree (i) to issue to Holder for use as Collateral all rights, title and interest to the oil, gas and mineral leases and equipment described in the hereto attached Exhibit “A” (the “Leases”) including any renewals, extensions, or ratifications, and the oil and gas leasehold estates and related working interests in the lands described on Exhibit “A” titled “Assignment and Bill of Sale” issued by Ginzoil, Inc. to the Companies; (ii) to enter into the Security Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (the “Security Agreement”) granting to Holder and to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Co-Lender”) a security interest in all of the Companies’ assets relating to the Leases and in certain equipment as more particular set forth in the Security Agreement.

Section 3.5
The Parties intend that Holder will achieve a rate of return no worse than any other material lender of the Makers.

Section 3.6
At no time shall any fees, interest, Liquidated Damages or other charges that may be otherwise applicable under the terms of this Agreement and Note cause this Note to exceed that return to Holder permitted by law, and if such would be the case, such charges, fees and interest shall be adjusted downward to that maximum allowed by law.

(a) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default: (a) at Holder’s option, all amounts due and owing under this Note shall be immediately due and payable without demand and without notice to Makers, (b) Holder shall have all rights and remedies available to it at law or equity for collection of the amounts due under this Note; (c) Holder shall have all rights and remedies available to it under any applicable law or as otherwise provided at law or in equity; (d) Makers shall pay to Holder, in addition to the sums stated herein, the reasonable costs of collection, regardless of whether litigation is commenced, including any reasonable attorneys’ (and any other consultants’ or experts’) fees, expenses and other costs, to the extent not prohibited by law; and (e) notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, during the period of existence of such Event of Default, interest on the principal amount outstanding evidenced by this Note shall accrue and be paid, not at the Interest Rate, but at the lesser of (i) the Default Rate (defined below), or (ii) the maximum lawful rate of interest under the applicable Usury Law, if any.

(c) Xxxxxx’s rights and remedies under this Note shall be cumulative. Holder shall have all other rights and remedies as provided under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of [Texas], or otherwise by law, or in equity. No exercise by Holder of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Holder of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Holder shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.
