Terms
of Repayment. Interest on this Note shall be calculated
as follows:
|
(a)
Simple
Interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the date funds
received hereof through the Maturity Date or until the reverse
merger.
(b)
Interest
shall be due and payable as follows:
Interest
as described in (a) will accrue on receipt of funds by FRDZ until June 30, 2010.
Beginning on the date funds are received and on the last day of each month
thereafter, unless deferred by Lender under the Deferral Right, defined below,
interest will be accrued on the principal amount as an interest payable
amount.
In the alternative this loan
may be repaid immediately after the close of a reverse merger transaction, (The
“close” being defined section 13) and as immediately after the filing of a Form
8-k with the SEC (“Securities and Exchange Commission”) formalizing and
disclosing the details and definitative closing documents of a reverse merger
transaction.
(c)
As
per the preceding paragraph and in the alternative of 1.(a) and 1.(b)
above the Note may be repayable with $12,500.00USD in cash.
If any
payment made by the Borrower or any other person is applied to this Note and is
at any time annulled, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or
the proceeds of any property hereafter pledged as security for this Note is
required to be returned by Lender to the Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver
or any other party, including, without limitation, under any bankruptcy law,
state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such
payment or repayment, the Borrower’s liability hereunder (and any lien, security
interest or other collateral securing such liability) shall be and remain in
full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made, or, if
prior thereto any such lien, security interest or other collateral hereunder
securing the Borrower’s liability hereunder shall have been released or
terminated by virtue of such cancellation or surrender, this Note (and such
lien, security interest or other collateral) shall be reinstated in full force
and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish,
release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower
in respect to the amount of such payment (or any lien, security interest or
other collateral securing such obligation).
1
(c) All
computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the basis of a year of 360
days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the
last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is
payable. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to
be due on a day which is not a business day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in
the computation of payment of interest.
(d)
The
Borrower may prepay all or any part of the outstanding principal amount of this
Note, together with accrued interest without penalty.
2. Liability
of the Borrower. The Borrower is unconditionally, and without
regard to the liability of any other person, liable for the payment and
performance of this Note and such liability shall not be affected by an
extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification of this Note or the release,
substitution, or addition of collateral for this Note. Each person
signing this Note consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers,
or modifications, as well as to release, substitution, or addition of guarantors
or collateral security, without affecting the Borrower’s liabilities
hereunder. Lender is entitled to the benefits of any collateral

effect.

Lender. The Lender may assign or otherwise participate out all or
part of, or any interest in, its rights and benefits hereunder and to the extent
of such assignment or participation such assignee shall have the same rights and
benefits against the Borrower as it would have had if it were the
Lender. This Note, and any claims arising out of relating to this
Note, whether in contract or tort, statutory or common law, shall be governed
exclusively by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada
