Late Payment. Any principal amount of this Note that is not paid pursuant to the terms of this Note when due and payable on the Maturity Date, shall, from and after such Default (as defined below), in addition to the Interest Rate, accrue additional simple interest at a fixed annual rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) accruing daily and compounding annually based on a 365-day year until such unpaid principal amount has been paid in full.

Optional Prepayment. Maker may, at its option at any time and from time to time hereafter, prepay, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount to the date of prepayment.

Defaults. Maker shall be deemed in default hereunder upon the occurrence of any of the following (a “Default”):

The failure of Maker to make the payment of principal or interest due hereunder within fifteen (15) Business Days after the Maturity Date;

Consequence of Default.
