7.  CORPORATE OBLIGATION. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant, or  agreement contained in this Note, or for any claim based  thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any shareholder, officer or director, as  such, past, present or future, of the Promissor or of any successor  corporation, either directly or through the Promissor, any successor corporation, any trustee, any receiver, or any other person, whether by  virtue of any constitution, statute, or rule of law, or by the  enforcement of any assessment, penalty, or otherwise; it being expressly understood that this Note is solely a corporate obligation of the Promissor.

8.  DEFAULT.  In case any events of default, as defined below (''Events of Default”), shall have occurred and are continuing, the principal hereof together with all interest accrued, but unpaid, hereon may be declared due and payable by the Holder of this Note including such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the cost and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, and disbursements.
