All interest chargeable under this Equipment Finance Facility A on a per annum basis shall be computed on a basis of a 360-day year for actual days elapsed and shall compound daily.

Equipment Finance Facility A Repayment.

Credit Facility under the terms of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Equipment Finance Facility A, all advances under Equipment Finance Facility A shall bear interest, from and after any Event of Default and without constituting a waiver of any such Event of Default, on the Daily Balance owing, at a per annum rate five (5) percentage points above the Equipment Finance Facility A Rate or the Fixed Equipment Finance Facility A Rate (as the case may be).

The parties waive the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1654 requiring that any ambiguities in this Modification Agreement be construed against either of the parties.
