--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 17

and the OF Manager must cause the Note Holder to promptly notify

prepay to the Note Holder the Outstanding Moneys of it in full
or, if in the OF Manager's opinion delay in prepayment does not
compound such breach or affect such compliance, at the end of at
least the longer of 30 days and the period ending on the next
