9. Action to Collect on Note. If action is instituted to collect on this Note, the Company shall pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys fees, incurred in connection with such action.
10. Usury Savings Clause. It is the intention of the Parties hereto to comply with applicable state and federal usury laws from time to time in effect. Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note or any other documents related hereto, in any event (including, but not limited to, prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation) will this Note or any such other document require the payment or permit the collection or receipt of interest in excess of the highest lawful rate. If under any circumstance whatsoever, any provision of the Note or of any other document pertaining hereto will provide for the payment, collection r receipt of interest in excess of the highest lawful rate, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if, from any such circumstances, the Holder will ever receive anything of value as interest (or anything of value deemed interest by applicable law) under this Note, or any other document pertaining hereto, an amount that would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would exceed the highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owning under this Note or on account of any other indebtedness of the Company to the Holder, and not to the payment of interest, or if such excess interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of the Note and such other indebtedness, such excess shall be refunded to the Company. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable with respect to any indebtedness of the Company to the Holder, under any specified contingency, exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Company and the Holder will, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium, rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of interest throughout the full term of such indebtedness (including any extension or renewal) so that interest thereon does not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, and/or (iv) allocate interest between portions of such indebtedness, to the end that no such portion shall bear interest at a rate greater than that permitted by applicable law.
11. Severability. If one or more provision of this Note is held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision(s) shall be excluded from this Note and the balance of the Note shall be interpreted as if such provision(s) were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
12. Facsimile and Counterparts. This Note may be signed by facsimile and executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original and all of which together will constitute a single agreement.
13. No Rights or Liabilities As Stockholder. This Note does not by itself entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. In the absence of conversion of this Note, no provisions of this Note, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall cause the Holder to be a stockholder of the Company for any purpose.
