The Obligor and the Holder are sometimes hereinafter collectively called the “Parties” and each individually called a “Party”. The “Obligations” include the outstanding Principal Amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees, costs and expenses owed to the Holder under this Note, whether incurred before or after the commencement of a proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

All accrued and unpaid interest on the Original Note as of July 2, 2019 (the “Effective Date”) shall be paid by capitalizing such interest and adding it to the Principal Amount on July 2, 2019. For the avoidance of doubt, the Principal Amount of the date hereof is $1,046,499.85.

2. Interest. Interest shall be computed on the unpaid Principal Amount hereunder on the basis of a year composed of three hundred sixty-five (365) days, but shall accrue and be payable for the actual number of days during which the Principal Amount is outstanding and shall be compounded quarterly by capitalizing such interest quarterly. Accrued but unpaid interest shall be payable in accordance with Section 1.

11. Amendments; Waiver. All amendments to this Note must be in writing and signed by the Holder and the Obligor.
