5. Waivers.

Maker expressly grants to Holder the right to release or to agree not to sue any other person, or to suspend the right to enforce this Note against such other person or to otherwise discharge such person; and Maker agrees that the exercise of such rights by Holder shall have no effect on the liability of any other person, primarily or secondarily liable hereunder. Maker waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration of maturity, diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder, and any purported duty or obligation of Holder to effect, protect, perfect, retain, or enforce any security for the payment of this Note, or to proceed against any collateral before otherwise enforcing this Note.
