8

 
5.3. Costs of Collection. Maker agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of collection incurred by Payee, in addition to principal, interest and late or delinquency charges (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and including all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the pursuit by Payee of any of its rights or remedies referred to in Section 4 hereof or the protection of or realization of collateral or in connection with any of Payee’s collection efforts, whether or not suit on this Note, or any foreclosure proceeding is filed, and all such reasonable costs and expenses shall be payable on demand, together with interest at the Default Rate thereon, and also shall be secured by the Pledge Agreement and all other collateral at any time held by Payee as security for Maker’s obligations to Payee.
 
5.4. Maximum Amount.
 
A. It is the intention of Maker and Payee to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all agreements between Maker and Payee, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to Payee as interest hereunder or in any other security agreement given to secure the Obligations, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Obligations, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or such other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the Maximum Amount, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount. For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder, in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Obligations outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of this Note until payment in full of all of the Obligations, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the Obligations is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 5.4 shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between Maker and Payee.
 
B. If under any circumstances Payee shall ever receive an amount that would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the Loan Amount owing hereunder and any other obligation of Maker in favor of Payee, and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof, or if such excessive interest exceeds the Loan Amount and any other obligation of Maker in favor of Payee, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Maker.
 
5.5. Waivers; WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, ETC. Maker hereby expressly and unconditionally waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or notice of any kind, including, without limitation, any notice of intention to accelerate and notice of acceleration, except as expressly provided here-in. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY PAYEE ON THIS NOTE, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND EVERY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

All references to “Payee” hereunder shall be deemed to include the permitted assigns of Payee. In the event that the result of such permitted transfer, sale, assignment or participation is that Maker shall be obligated to make the payments required hereunder to an entity other than Payee, then Payee shall provide at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Maker of such transfer, sale, assignment or participation.
 
5.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Note.
