PROMISE TO PAY: I promise to pay to the order of Lender the Total of Payments indicated above, which includes principal (Amount Financed) and precomputed interest (Finance Charge). 2.

LATE PAYMENT: If I fail to make any payment within ten (10) days of the due date, I agree to pay Lender a late payment fee in an amount equal to 5% of the delinquent payment, or such lesser amount as may be limited by law. 4. RETURNED CHECK CHARGES: If I make any payment by Agreement, and my check is returned unpaid for any reason, I agree to pay Lender a returned check charge in the amount of $25.00, or such lesser amount as may be limited by law. 5. PREPAYMENT: I may prepay my Indebtedness under this Agreement, less any required rebate of unearned interest, in full at any time. The rebate will be based upon either simple interest or the Rule of 78's, whichever is more favorable to me. 6. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST: In order to secure the prompt and punctual payment and satisfaction of my Indebtedness (as defined herein), I am granting Lender a security interest in the Equipment, and in all accessions, replacements and additions to the Equipment, and in all leases of the Equipment, and in all lease payments, rentals, and rights thereto, and in all proceeds derived from the Equipment, including insurance proceeds and refunds of insurance premiums. I also agree that collateral securing other loans, credit sales and leases that I may have with Lender, whether now or in the future, additionally will secure my Indebtedness under this Agreement. The Equipment, all leases of the Equipment, all lease payments, rentals, and rights thereto, proceeds, and my additional collateral securing other loans, credit sales, and leases with Lender, are individually, collectively and interchangeably referred to under this Agreement as my "Collateral." For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Indebtedness" means: (1) my indebtedness under my loan and under this Agreement for payment of principal, interest, late charges and returned check fees; (2) my indebtedness under any other loans or obligations that I may now and in the future owe to Lender; (3) all additional funds that Lender may advance on my behalf as provided in this Agreement; and (4) Lender's costs and expenses incurred in enforcing Lender's rights under this Agreement, and in protecting and preserving the Collateral, including reimbursement of Lender's reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and collection expenses. I authorize Lender to perfect its security interest in the Collateral by filing a copy of this Agreement, or a UCC financing statement, and/or title documentation with the proper filing or title office. I agree to reimburse Lender for all filing costs and perfection expenses, as well as for all costs of amending, continuing and terminating such filings. 7. COVENANTS: I agree: (1) not to sell, lease, transfer or assign the Collateral without Lender's prior written consent; (2) not to allow any other security interest or lien to be placed on or to attach to the Collateral; (3) not to make any material changes or alterations to the Equipment without Lender's prior written consent (including replacements, additions, accessories or substitutions); (4) not to remove the Equipment from the state in which I reside or have my principal offices, other than in the ordinary course of business, for a period in excess of sixty (60) consecutive days, without first obtaining Lender's prior written consent; (5) not to retitle the Equipment in another state without first notifying Lender; and (6) if I am a business entity, not to change my name or form or state of organization without first notifying Lender at least thirty (30) days in advance of such change. I further agree: (a) that anything that may be attached to the Equipment will become an accession to the Equipment, and will become part of the Collateral; (b) to make all necessary repairs to, and not to abandon the Equipment; (c) to abide by all laws and rules and regulations with respect to the use and operation of the Equipment, and to obtain all necessary permits and licenses is those jurisdictions where required; (d)to pay all taxes and assessments levied against the Equipment and to furnish Lender with proof of such payments; and (e) to permit Lender to inspect the Equipment at reasonable times. 8. INSURANCE: So long as my Indebtedness remains unpaid and unsatisfied, I agree to maintain insurance on the Equipment, at my expense, and with such coverages and deductible limits as may be required by Lender, and with such financially responsible insurance companies as may be acceptable to Lender. Such insurance shall include: (a) collision coverage; and (b) either (1) comprehensive coverage, or (2) fire, theft and combined additional coverages, on the Equipment, with a deductible not to exceed $1,000, insuring against loss up to the value of the Equipment at the time of loss. I agree to name Lender as a non-contributory lender loss payee beneficiary and as an additional insured under my insurance policy, which will require at least twenty (20) days advance written notice to Lender before such insurance may lapse, or be reduced or canceled or terminated for any reason. I agree to provide Lender with a copy of my insurance policy along with evidence that I have paid the policy premiums and all renewal premiums. I assign to Lender all proceeds from insurance policies covering the Equipment, including, but not limited to, refunds of unearned premiums of any credit life, credit disability, property or other insurance financed by Lender under this Agreement, and direct the insurance companies to pay such amounts directly to Lender. Lender may apply any such insurance proceeds and returned premiums received to the unpaid balance of my then Indebtedness. I instruct my insurance company to make such payments directly to Lender. I also grant Lender an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, to endorse any draft or check received as proceeds of insurance, and if I am then in default, to negotiate and settle any claims I may have with respect to the Equipment. Should I fail to purchase and maintain insurance on the Equipment, or should I fail to do whatever else is required of me under this Agreement, then Lender shall have the right (at Lender's sole option, and without any responsibility or liability to do so) to purchase insurance of such type and coverages, and in such amounts as Lender deems acceptable, and to do such other acts as Lender may deem, within its sole discretion, to be necessary and proper. I agree to immediately reimburse Lender for all additional sums that Lender may advance for such purposes, together with interest thereon at the rate of 18% per annum, or such lesser rate as may be limited by law, from the date of each advance until I repay Lender in full. I authorize Lender to release to third parties any information necessary to facilitate insurance and tax monitoring and insurance placement.

DEFAULT AND ACCELERATION: Lender has the right at its sole option to insist on immediate payment in full of all Indebtedness that I may owe to Lender, less any required rebates of unearned interest, upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (1) if I fail to make any payment under this Agreement when due; or (2) if I am in default under any other provision of this Agreement; or (3) if I am in default under any other loan, extension of credit, or obligation that I may then owe to Lender; or (4) if I should become insolvent, or apply for bankruptcy or other relief from creditors; or (5) if any of the Equipment is seized under process of law; or (6) if any guaranty of my obligations under this Agreement is withdrawn or becomes unenforceable for any reason; or (7) if Lender reasonably believes itself to be insecure in the repayment of this Agreement. After default and acceleration, I agree to continue to pay Lender interest on the then unpaid balance of my Indebtedness at the rate of eighteen (18%) percent per annum, or such lesser rate as may be limited by law. 10. DEFAULT REMEDIES: Should I default under this Agreement, and Lender elects to accelerate payment of my Indebtedness, Lender may exercise all of the rights and remedies available to secured creditors generally under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the state where the Collateral is then located. I agree to turn over and deliver the Collateral to Lender at my expense, at the time and at the location Lender may demand of me. Alternatively, Lender may enter any premises or other place where the Collateral may be located, and take possession of the Collateral, and all other property then located on or in the Collateral, provided that Lender is able to do so without breach of the peace. Lender may then sell the Collateral without warranty at public or private sale, and apply the sale proceeds to the satisfaction of my Indebtedness. Lender has no obligation to clean-up, repair, or prepare the Collateral for sale. Any requirement that Lender notify me of the sale or other disposition of the Collateral will be satisfied if Lender sends me a written communication at least ten (10) days in advance of the date on which a public sale is scheduled, or within ten (10) days in advance of the time after which a private sale or other disposition may take place. 11.

We further agree that discharge or release of any party, or Collateral, or any extension of time for payment, or any delay in enforcing Lender's rights, will not cause Lender to lose any of its rights. I EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY DISPUTE REGARDING OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE SALE OF THE EQUIPMENT, OR MY RELATIONSHIP WITH LENDER OR DEALER. 12. COLLECTION ATTORNEY'S FEES AND EXPENSES: If Lender has to sue me, or if Lender refers my loan to an attorney for collection, I agree to pay Lender reasonable attorney's fees. I further agree to reimburse Lender for its court costs and collection expenses incurred in enforcing Lender's rights under this Agreement. 13. SAVINGS CLAUSE: It is Lender's intent to fully comply with all laws and regulations limiting imposition and collection of interest and other fees and charges in connection with my loan. Should I be called upon, or should I ever pay interest or other fees and charges to Lender in excess of the amount(s) and rate(s) permitted, I agree that Lender may cure such violation by crediting any excess amount that I have paid against my then outstanding Indebtedness under this Agreement. 14. NO AGENCY RELATIONSHIP; NO RIGHT TO ASSERT CLAIMS AND DEFENSES: I fully understand and unconditionally agree that neither Dealer, the Equipment manufacturer and distributor, nor their employees, are Lender's partners, agents, or representatives, and have no right to commit, bind or obligate Lender in any way.
