Payee shall not be bound to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties, and Maker shall take all necessary steps for such purposes. Payee or its nominee need not collect interest on or principal of any Collateral or give any notice with respect thereto.

Payee shall have all of the rights and remedies of a creditor, mortgagee and secured party under all applicable law.

To the extent that any of the Collateral is personal property and Payee elects to proceed with respect to it in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code then, unless that collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Payee will give Maker reasonable notice of the time and place of any public or private sale thereof. The requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is, at the option of Payee, hand delivered, sent via expedited courier, or mailed, postage pre-paid to Maker, at the address given to Payee by Maker, or at any other address shown on the records of Payee at least five (5) days before the time of sale.

Items (ii) through (vi) shall be applicable only after the occurrence of a default under this Note or under any of the Loan Documents. In no event shall Payee be entitled to unearned or unaccrued interest or other charges or rebates, except as may be authorized by law, and should any interest or other charges paid by Maker or other parties liable for the payment of this Note result in the computation or earning of interest in excess of the maximum rate of interest that is legally permitted under applicable law, then any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby waived by Payee, and any and all such excess shall be automatically credited against and reduce the balance due under this indebtedness, and the portion of said excess which exceeds the balance due under this indebtedness, shall be paid by Payee to Maker and parties liable for the payment of this Note. Payee may, in determining the maximum rate permitted under applicable law in effect from time to time, take advantage of (i) the maximum rate of interest permitted under Florida law or federal law, whichever is higher, including any laws regarding parity among lenders; and (ii) any other law, rule or regulation in effect from time to time available to Payee, which exempts Payee from any limit upon the rate of interest it may charge, or grants to Payee the right to charge a higher rate of interest than that permitted by Chapter 687, Florida Statutes. The provisions of this Note and the Loan Documents shall be construed according to the internal laws (and not the laws of conflicts) of the State of Florida; except as set forth above, if Federal law would allow the payment of interest hereunder at a higher maximum rate than would be PLEASE INITIAL ________ -5- applicable under Florida law, in which case such Federal law shall apply to the determination of the highest applicable lawful rate of interest hereunder. No delay or omission on the part of Payee in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other rights under this Note. Presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor and all other notices are hereby waived by Maker. Maker promises and agrees to pay all costs of collection and attorneys' fees, which shall include reasonable attorneys' fees in connection with any suit, out of court, in trial, on appeal, in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, incurred or paid by Payee in enforcing this Note or preserving any right or interest of Payee set forth herein. Any notice to Maker shall be sufficiently served for all purposes if placed in the mail, postage prepaid, addressed to, or left upon the premises at the address of Maker as provided to Payee. This Note is not assumable without Payee's prior written consent, which consent may be granted by Payee or denied by Payee, in Payee's sole and absolute discretion. Maker agrees that Broward County, Florida shall be the proper venue for any and all legal proceedings arising out of this Note or any of the Loan Documents.
