principal amount of this Note on the applicable Interest Payment Date, and
interest will accrue on such aggregate principal amount. In the event
any payment under this Note is not timely made when due, interest will accrue on
such late payment at an amount equal to twenty-two percent (22%) per annum from

failure or delay on the part of the Holder hereof in the exercise of any power,

privilege. All rights and remedies existing hereunder are cumulative

laws. If it is hereafter determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction that the interest
- 2

payable
hereunder is in excess of the amount which the Holder may legally collect under
the then applicable usury laws, such amount which would be excessive interest
shall be applied to the payment of the unpaid principal balance due hereunder
and not to the payment of interest or, if all principal shall previously have
been paid, promptly repaid by the Holder to the Company.
The
Company and any endorsers of this Note hereby waive diligence, presentment,
protest, demand and notice of every kind and, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, the right to plead any statute of limitations as a defense to any demand
hereunder.
This Note
shall be governed by the internal laws (and not the law of conflicts) of the
State of New York.
Every
provision of this Note is intended to be severable. If any term or provision
hereof is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or
invalid, such illegal or invalid term or provision shall not affect the balance
of the terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain
