Eighteen percent (18%)

Payment Terms:

This Note is due and payable as follows:
 
Interest only is payable monthly as it accrues on or before the 21st day of every month, beginning April 21, 2007 and continuing on the same day of each succeeding month until maturity.  The entire unpaid principal balance, together with accrued and earned but unpaid interest, shall be fully due and payable on or before March 21, 2008.
 
If there is no material uncured default at the maturity date stated above, (whether defined or referenced as a “Default”, “Event of Default” or otherwise, which are subject to the notice and opportunity to cure provisions herein) under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents (defined below), the interest only payment terms of this Note shall automatically be extended for one additional year, with the entire unpaid principal balance, together with accrued and earned but unpaid interest, being fully due and payable on or before March 21, 2009.
 
 
 

 
 
Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part without penalty, and interest shall cease on any amount so prepaid.

Interest Provisions:
 
(a)           Rate:  The Principal Amount of this Note advanced but from time to time remaining unpaid prior to maturity shall bear interest at a varying or fluctuating rate per annum (the “Applicable Rate”) that is equal to the “Prime Rate” plus the “Margin Percentage” as those terms are defined and stated in this Note, but never greater than the “Maximum Lawful Rate”, as defined below.  The term “Prime Rate” as used in this Note means a per annum interest rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as published each day by The Wall Street Journal in its “Money Rates” section, and if more than one such rate is published, then the highest such rate.  On any day when The Wall Street Journal is not published or a Prime Rate is not published under the Money Rates section thereof, then the Prime Rate published for the preceding publication date of The Wall Street Journal shall apply.  Should the method of establishing the Prime Rate, or the publication of such Prime Rate, cease or be abolished, then the Prime Rate used for the balance of the term of this Note shall be that interest rate established, adopted or used by holder as its prime or base interest rate.  The term “Margin Percentage” is that percentage, if any, stated above, which shall be added to the Prime Rate to establish the Applicable Rate per annum to be paid by Borrower on this Note.  The Applicable Rate will automatically fluctuate upward or downward with changes to the Prime Rate, without notice to Borrower or any other person.  Interest shall be calculated on the amount of each advance of the Principal Amount of this Note from the date of each advance.
 
(b)           Maximum Lawful Rate:  The term “Maximum Lawful Rate” means the maximum lawful contractual rate of interest, and the term “Maximum Lawful Amount” means the maximum lawful contractual amount of interest, that are permissible and nonusurious under the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect provided by Texas Finance Code Sections 303.002 and 303.003, subject to Texas Finance Code Section 303.009.
 
(c)           Usury Disclaimer:  All agreements between Lender and Borrower, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of demand for payment or acceleration of the maturity hereof or any other circumstance whatsoever, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lender exceed the Maximum Lawful Amount.  If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to Lender in excess of the Maximum Lawful Amount, the interest payable to Lender shall be reduced to the Maximum Lawful Amount; and if from any circumstance Lender shall ever receive any interest in excess of the Maximum Lawful Amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the Principal Amount and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid Principal Amount such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the Principal Amount (including the period of any renewal or extension hereof) so that the interest hereon for such full period shall not exceed the Maximum Lawful Amount.  For purposes of this paragraph, the term interest shall include all considerations and amounts that constitute interest under applicable usury law.  This paragraph shall control all agreements between Borrower and Lender.
 
 
 

 
 
(d)           Interest After Default:  All past due installments of principal and interest on this Note, and the unpaid principal balance during the existence of any default and after maturity, shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (i) the Default Interest Rate stated above or (ii) the Maximum Lawful Rate.  Where no Maximum Lawful Rate is applicable and a Default Interest Rate is not specified, the interest rate on such amounts shall be the Applicable Rate stated above.

(iii)         without regard to the number or creditworthiness of any other persons who have agreed to pay this Note.
