remedies being cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable alternatively,

amounts owing under this Note, may, as provided in the Loan Agreement, be
declared or shall forthwith become due and payable, together with all
interest accrued thereon and with interest accruing thereafter at the then
applicable interest rate under the Loan Agreement until the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note is paid in full, plus the costs and expenses of
collection hereof, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees
and legal expenses.

against any Debtor is expressly hereby waived by Debtor. Upon or after
