It is agreed that time is of the essence of this Note, and if the payment of principal and all accrued and unpaid interest is not received by Payee on or before the Maturity Date, or, if a default occurs under any instrument now or hereafter executed in connection with or as security for this Note, thereupon, after the passage of applicable notice and cure periods, at the option of Payee, the entire unpaid principal balance and the accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable forthwith without demand, notice of default or of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof, notice of nonpayment, presentment, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which arc hereby expressly waived by Maker and each other liable party. Any past due principal shall bear interest at the maximum rata allowed by law. Failure to exercise this option upon any such default shall not constinite a waiver of the right to exercise such option in the event of any subsequent default.
 
If the entire unpaid principal balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest due and owing on this Note is not paid at maturity whether by acceleration or otherwise and is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or suit is filed hereon, or proceedings are had in probate, bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization, arrangement or other legal proceedings for collection hereof, Maker and each other liable party agree to pay Payee its reasonable collection costs, including a reasonable amount for attorneys' fees, but in no event to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law.

It is the intent of Maker and Payee in the execution of this Note and all other loan documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law. In furtherance thereof, Maker and Payee stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Note, or in any other instrument executed in connection herewith, shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the maximum rate allowed by law ("Maximum Rate"). Neither Maker nor any guarantors, endorsers or other parties now or hereafter becoming liable for payment of this Note shall ever be obligated or required to pay interest on this Note at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, and the provisions of this paragraph shall control over all other provisions of this Note and any other loan documents now or hereafter executed which may be in apparent conflict herewith. Payee expressly disavows any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of this Note is accelerated. If the maturity of this Note shall be accelerated for any reason or if the principal of this Note is paid prior to the end of the term of this Note, and as a result thereof the interest received for the actual period of existence of the loan evidenced by this Note exceeds the applicable maximum lawful rate, the holder of this Note shall credit the amount of such excess against the principal balance of this Note then outstanding and thereby shall render inapplicable any and all penalties of any kind provided by applicable law as a result of such excess interest; provided, however, that if the principal hereof has been paid in full, such excess shall be refunded to Maker. If the holder of this Note shall receive money (or anything else) which is determined to constitute interest and which would increase the effective interest rate on this Note or any other indebtedness which Maker or a guarantor is obligated to pay to holder to a rate in excess of that permitted by applicable law, the amount determined to constitute interest in excess of the lawful rate shall be credited against the principal balance of this Note then outstanding or, if the principal balance has been paid in full, refunded to Maker, in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable law as a result of such excess interest shall be inapplicable. If the holder of this Note shall not actually receive, but shall contract for, request or demand, a payment of money (or anything else) which is determined to constitute interest and which would increase the effective interest rate contracted for or charged on this Note or the other indebtedness evidenced or secured by the Loan Documents to a rate in excess of that permitted by applicable law, the holder of this Note shall be entitled, following such determination, to waive or rescind the contractual claim, request or demand for the amount determined to constitute interest in excess of the lawful rate, in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable law as a result of such excess interest shall be inapplicable. By execution of this Note, Maker acknowledges that Maker believes the loan evidenced by this Note to be non-usurious and agrees that if, at any time, Maker should have reason to believe that such loan is in fact usurious, Maker will give the holder of this Note notice of such condition and Maker agrees that the holder shall have sixty (60) days in which to make appropriate refund or other adjustment in order to correct such condition if in fact such exists.

Additionally, if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any documents or instruments executed pursuant to the terms thereof, shall, at the time fulfillment of such provision be due, involve transcending the Maximum Rate then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Rate. The term "applicable law" as used in this Note shall mean the laws of the State of Texas or the laws of the United States, whichever laws allow the greater rate of interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.
 
Company agrees to make lump sum payments if it receives any substantial payments from any sources.
 
This Note is secured under the terms of a Security Agreement dated the date hereof, executed by Maker (or by any other liable party) in favor of Payee, or any other holder of this Note.
 
In addition to the above provisions, Maker will be in default if : (1) Maker fails to timely pay or perform any obligation or covenant in any written agreement between Payee and Maker; (2) Maker makes any material false statement or representation in any agreement or document presented to Payee and upon which Payee relied in funding this Note; (3) a receiver is appointed for Maker; (4) bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings are commenced against or by Maker; (5) Maker is dissolved; (6)Maker's collateral provided to secure payment of this Note is impaired by loss, theft, damage, levy and execution, or destruction, unless it is promptly replaced with collateral of like kind and quality or restored to its former condition.
 
This Note shall rank senior to all other indebtedness of Maker, and no other obligation may be created by Maker that ranks senior to this Note.
 
This Note has been executed and delivered in and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas.
