ARTICLE I. Prepayment. The Maker may prepay all (but not less than all) of its obligations under this Note only with the written consent of, and on terms and conditions acceptable to, Holder.

Upon Maker’s payment in full of all amounts due hereunder, the Holder will release the Collateral to Maker free and clear of the security interest granted therein.

ARTICLE III. Default.

3.1 Upon and during the continuance of any Event of Default (as defined below), Holder shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of Florida (the “UCC”). Except as expressly provided herein, the exercise by Holder of such rights and remedies shall not be construed as a limitation of the obligations of Maker to Holder, or the rights of Holder, hereunder or otherwise. Whenever Holder is required by the UCC to give notice to Maker in the exercise of its rights and/or remedies with respect to the Collateral, the Holder shall give at least fifteen (15) days advance written notice to Maker.

ARTICLE VI. Waivers. No delay on the part of the Holder in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of a right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The failure of the Holder to insist upon the strict performance of any term of this Note, or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment by the Holder for the future of that term, right or remedy. No waiver of any right of the Holder hereunder shall be effective unless in writing executed by the Holder.

ARTICLE VII. Severability. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision or provisions of this Note as to any persons or circumstances shall not render that provision or those provisions unenforceable or invalid as to any other provisions, persons or circumstances, and all provisions hereof, in all other respects, shall remain valid and enforceable.

The provisions of this Note are hereby modified to the extent necessary to conform with the limitations and provisions of this Section 9.

ARTICLE X. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE MAKER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY.
