1. The Maker, unconditionally promises to pay to the order of the Payee, the principal sum of the Prior Loans, the Additional Loans and any Future Loans together with accrued interest thereon from the date of issuance hereof. The Maker further agrees to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the Payee or by any other holder of this Note in any action to collect this Note, whether or not suit is brought.

3. Principal and accrued interest shall be payable on January 30, 2010. Maker shall have the right at any time to prepay, in whole or in part, the principal and accrued interest without penalty upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the Payee.

4. The amounts due hereunder are payable without deduction or offset in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds to the Payee at its address as set forth above, or at such other place as the holder of this Note shall from time to time designate.

5. It shall be an event of default (“Event of Default”), and the then unpaid portion of this Note shall become immediately due and payable, at the election of Payee, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

 

(a) any failure on the part of Maker to make any payment hereunder when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise;

(b) Maker shall commence (or take any action for the purpose of commencing) any proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, moratorium or similar law or statute; or
