Lender shall advance any Loan to Borrower in an amount equal to the principal sum of such Loan minus the Original Issue Discount.

Each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (without deduction for the Ordinary Issue Discount) at an interest rate equal to Twenty Percent (20.0%) per annum; provided that payment in full of the Repayment Amount, inclusive of the Original Issue Discount, on the Maturity Date satisfies the interest accrual on the Loan from initial issuance to the Maturity Date. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans hereunder shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate of interest of five (5.0%) percent per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise then in effect or, if less, the maximum lawful rate of interest. Interest on each Loan shall be calculated on the basis year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual days elapsed.

3.         Maturity. On the Maturity Date, the entire outstanding Repayment Amount (including the Original Issue Discount) shall be due and payable in full without any notice or demand whatsoever being required.

If the provisions of this Note or the Credit Agreement would at any time otherwise require payment by the Borrower to Lender of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount then permitted by applicable law, the interest payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that Lender shall not receive interest in excess of such maximum amount.

7.          Time of the essence. Time is of the essence as to all dates set forth herein; provided, however that whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computations of payment of interest. “Business Day” shall mean any day except a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks are required or permitted to close in the State of New York.
