So long as this Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of any new security, with any term that the Payee reasonably believes is more favorable to the Payee of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that the Payee reasonably believes was not similarly provided to the Payee in this Note, then (i) the Company shall notify the Payee of such additional or more favorable term within one ( 1 ) business day of the issuance or amendment (as applicable) of the respective security, and (ii) such term, at Payee’s option, shall become a part of the transaction documents with the Payee (regardless of whether the Company complied with the notification provision of this Section 4.14).

If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to the Payee with respect to indebtedness evidenced by this the Note, such excess shall be applied by the Payee to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Payee’s election.
