FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Borrower hereby promises to pay Lender the principal sum of USD $220,000.00 (the “Principal Amount”), which amount is the USD $200,000.00 actual amount of the purchase price (the “Consideration”) hereof plus an original issue discount in the amount of USD $20,000.00 (the “OID”) together with accrued unpaid interest on or before the Maturity Date.

6. Defaults and Remedies.

 

(a) Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: (i) the Borrower shall fail to pay any of the Principal Amount and the Interest or other sums due under this Note within ten (10) business days of when any such payment shall be due and payable; (ii) the Borrower makes an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors; (iii) any order or decree is rendered by a court which appoints or requires the appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee for the Borrower, and the order or decree is not vacated within seventy five days from the date of entry thereof; (iv) any order or decree is rendered by a court adjudicating the Borrower insolvent, and the order or decree is not vacated within seventy five days from the date of entry thereof; (v) the Borrower files a petition in bankruptcy under the provisions of any Debtor Relief Law; (vi) the Borrower admits, in writing, its inability to pay its debts as they become due (provided, however, that receipt by the Borrower of an audit letter from its accountants questioning the viability of the Borrower as a going concern shall not, in and of itself, be construed as an admission by the Borrower of its inability to pay its debts as they become due); (vii) a proceeding or petition in bankruptcy is filed against the Borrower and such proceeding or petition is not dismissed within ninety days from the date it is filed; (viii) the Borrower files a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under any Debtor Relief Law or similar law of any other foreign country; or (ix) the Borrower shall fail to perform, comply with or abide by any of the stipulations, agreements, conditions and/or covenants contained in this Note on the part of the Borrower to be performed complied with or abided by, and such failure is not cured within forty five days after written notice of such failure is delivered by Lender to the Borrower. “Debtor Relief Law” means the Bankruptcy Code of the United States (Title 11), and all other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions from time to time in effect and affecting the rights of creditors generally.

 

(b) Default Rate.

(c) Remedies. Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default, the Lender, at its option after forty five (45) days following written notice, demand or presentment for payment to the Company, may declare the then Principal Amount of this Note, together with all other sums due under this Note, immediately due and payable, together with all accrued and unpaid the Interest thereon and thereafter all such sums shall bear interest at the Default Rate, together with all reasonable attorneys’ fees, paralegals’ fees and costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in collecting or enforcing payment thereof (whether such reasonable fees, costs or expenses are incurred in negotiations, all trial and appellate levels, administrative proceedings, bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise), and all other sums due by the Borrower hereunder, all without any relief whatsoever from any valuation or appraisement laws and payment thereof may be enforced and recovered in whole or in part at any time by one or more of the remedies provided to the Lender at law, in equity, or under this Note.

 

7. Waiver by Borrower. Borrower, for itself and for any guarantors, sureties, endorsers and/or other person or persons now or hereafter liable hereon, if any, hereby waives demand of payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of nonpayment or dishonor and any and all other notices and demands whatsoever, and any and all delays or lack of diligence in the collection hereof, and expressly consents and agrees to any and all extensions or postponements of the time of payment hereof from time to time at or after maturity and any other indulgence and waives all notice thereof.

 

8. No Waiver by Lender. No delay or failure by Lender in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall affect such right, power, privilege or remedy or be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any part thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any failure to exercise the same in any instance preclude any further or future exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy, and the rights and privileges provided for hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive.
