The Borrower hereby specifically acknowledges its responsibility to pay the entire Continuing Interest amount in cash.
4. Events of Default. Any one of the following shall constitute an Event of Default:
(A) Payment Default. If the Borrower fails to pay the Continuing Interest within thirty (30) calendar days after due date, such event shall be considered as event of default (“Default”) and any outstanding principal amount during the continuance of such Default shall bear interest at non-compounding annual rate equal to 12.0% (the “Default Rate”) until the Default is cured by the Borrower.
(B) Failure to Repay at Maturity. If the Borrower fails to repay the Combined Principal Amount of the Loan on or before the New Maturity Date, such event shall be considered the event of Default and any outstanding principal amount during the continuance of such Default shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Default is cured by the Borrower. The Borrower shall be granted the grace period of ninety (90) days to cure the Default. In the case the Borrower fails to cure the Default within such grace period, the Lender shall have the right, but not obligation, to convert the unpaid Combined Principal Amount then outstanding into the Collateral at the rate of 1 Unit for each Fifty Thousand ($50,000) U.S. Dollars of the Combined Principal Amount unpaid under this Agreement (“Mandatory Conversion”). Immediately following the Mandatory Conversion, the Combined Principal Amount so converted shall be deemed paid and no longer due, title for the Collateral shall be transferred to the Lender, the ownership of the Units so converted shall be recorded in the name of the Lender, and the Combined Principal Amount so converted shall be considered satisfied automatically without any notice from the Lender. In the case of the Mandatory Conversion, the Borrower shall transfer all rights for receipt of the Class-A Preferred Yield and the Class-A Preferred Profit Share resulting from the ownership of the Units to the Lender within 30 calendar days lapsing from the Mandatory Conversion date, upon completion of which all accrued and unpaid interest shall be considered satisfied and paid in full.
(C) No Obligation by Lender. There shall be no obligation on the part of the Lender to exercise any remedy available to the Lender under this Agreement, including but not limited to an exercise of the Lender’s right for the Mandatory Conversion. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver of the exercise of the same or any other right at any other time; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed by the parties.
