|
| “Interest Period” means, with respect to the initial Interest Period hereunder, the period commencing on the date of this Note and ending exactly thirty (30) days thereafter.

Any responsibility of Bank with respect to any collateral in which Bank possesses a security interest, whether arising contractually or as a matter of law, is hereby expressly waived.
If an earlier note of Xxxxxxxx is renewed by the execution hereof, then this Note constitutes an extension of the continuing indebtedness, and all security rights held by Bank under the earlier note shall continue in full force and effect and this Note shall not constitute a novation of the indebtedness represented by such earlier note. Xxxxxxx agrees to provide to the Bank upon request, but in any event on at least an annual basis, true and correct current financial statements in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank. The financial statements shall include, among other things, detailed information regarding (i) any entities, such as corporations, partnerships, or limited liability companies of which the Obligor is the majority owner and (ii) any entities of which the Obligor is not the majority owner, but for which Obligor is directly or contingently liable on debts or obligations of any kind incurred by those entities. If any of the following events shall occur (each such event being referred to herein as an “Event of Default”): (a) the non-payment of any principal or interest on this Note within ten (10) days of the date when due; (b) the death, adjudication of incompetence, dissolution, liquidation or insolvency of Obligor; (c) the filing by or against Obligor of a proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or for any other relief afforded debtors or affecting rights of creditors generally under the laws of any jurisdiction; (d) the nonmonetary default by Obligor under this Note, or any default under any mortgage, security agreement, or other document securing payment of this Note or under any other obligation owed by Obligor to Bank that is not cured within thirty (30) days of the date notice is provided by Bank to Borrower of such default; (e) any judgment, garnishment, seizure, tax lien or levy against any assets of Obligor; (f) any material adverse change in the financial condition of Obligor, or any material discrepancy between the financial statements submitted by Obligor and the actual financial condition of Obligor; (g) any statement, warranty, or representation made by Obligor to Bank proves to be untrue in any material respect; (h) any default by Obligor in the payment or performance of any material liabilities, indebtedness or obligations to any other creditor; or (i) a default under that certain $750,000.00 Revolving Line of Credit Note being executed by Borrower in favor of Bank on or about the date hereof; or (j) any discontinuance or termination of any guaranty of all or any portion of this Note by Obligor; then, at the option of Bank, the full amount of this Note and all other obligations and liabilities, direct or contingent, of Obligor to Bank shall be immediately due and payable without notice or demand. Without releasing or affecting any of its rights, Bank may, one or more times, in its sole discretion, without notice to or the consent of Obligor, take any one or more of the following actions: (a) release, renew or modify the obligations of Borrower or any other Obligor; (b) release, exchange, modify, or surrender in whole or in part Bank's rights with respect to any collateral for this Note; (c) modify or alter the term, interest rate or due date of any payment of this Note; (d) grant any postponements, compromises, indulgences, waivers, surrenders or discharges or modify the terms of its agreements with Borrower or any other Obligor; (e) change its manner of doing business with Borrower or any other party; or (f) impute payments or proceeds of any collateral furnished by Obligor, in whole or in part to any costs, interest, or principal due on this Note, or to any other obligation of Obligor to Bank, or retain the payments or proceeds as collateral for this Note without applying same toward payment of the Note, and Obligor hereby expressly waives any defenses arising from any such actions. Subject to payment of any SWAP breakage fees or costs, Obligor may prepay any principal on this Note in whole or in part and any prepayments made on this Note shall be applied to the principal payment(s) due on this Note in the inverse order of their maturity. Each advance under this Note and each payment on this Note shall be evidenced by entries in Bank's internal records, which shall be prima facie evidence of (a) the amount of principal and interest owing on this Note from time to time; (b) the amount of each advance made to Borrower under this Note; and (c) the amount of each principal and/or interest payment received by Bank on this Note. The failure of Bank to make an accurate entry of advances and payments shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower to repay funds actually advanced by Bank hereunder. Xxxxxxx agrees to pay the reasonable fees and costs of any attorney-at-law employed by Bank to recover sums owed or to protect Bank's interests with regard to this Note. Obligor further agrees to pay any and all charges, fees, costs and/or taxes levied or assessed against Bank in connection with this Note, against any collateral provided for this Note. If any payment on this Note is ten (10) days or more late, Xxxxxxx agrees to pay to the Bank, in addition to the amount otherwise due hereunder, a delinquency charge of 5.00% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment. Late charges will not be assessed following declaration of default and acceleration of maturity of this Note. The provisions of this Note may not be waived or modified except in writing, signed by Bank. No failure or delay of Bank in exercising its rights shall be construed as a waiver. If any provision of this Note shall be held to be legally invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, all remaining provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect. This Note shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Florida without reference to the conflicts of law principles that would cause the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Each Obligor irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court lying and being in the Florida county set forth on the first page of this Note, or if such location is outside of the State of Florida, the Florida lending office of Bank in which the loan was initiated or is serviced, and such Obligor further agrees that all actions or proceedings arising directly, indirectly or otherwise in connection with, out of, related to or from this Note or the obligations evidenced hereby shall be litigated in such courts. Each Obligor, for itself and any parties claiming under them, hereby waives any right that Obligor may have to transfer or change the venue of any litigation brought by Bank against any Obligor in accordance with this provision.
