11.     Presentment, Demand and Notice Waived.  The Borrower waives presentment for payment, demand and notice of demand, notice of non-payment, protest and notice of protest, notice of dishonor and trial by jury in any litigation arising out of, relating to, or connected with this Note, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document.
