Holder agrees that the exercise of any rights and remedies under this Note or the Guaranty by Holder or by another holder of a Series Note under such Series Note or any guaranty thereof by the Parent shall affect and be for the benefit all holders of the Series Notes on a pro rata basis based upon the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Series Note held by such holder.
