Without prejudicing or waiving Lender's right to assess and impose interest at the Default Rate (as defined below) as a result of the occurrence of any of the following events, and without waiving Lender's ability to declare an Event of Default at any time as a result thereof, if Borrower fails to perform any covenant, term or provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the timely delivery of any financial statements, reports, documents, or certificates required by this Agreement), then (at Lender's discretion and with respect to any such event) interest shall accrue on the Daily Balance at the per annum rate of six percentage points (6.0%) above the Interest Rate or above such other interest rate applicable to such portion of the Daily Balance (the Alternative Interest Rate), with Borrower to be granted a five (5) day cure period, from the date of Lender's notice of its intent to invoke the Alternative Interest Rate, in which to perform such failed covenant, term or provision prior to the Alternative Interest Rate taking effect, and if not cured, the Alternative Interest Rate shall take effect upon the expiration of such cure period and shall remain in effect until such failed covenant, term or provision is performed. The Daily Balance shall, at the option of Lender, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and without constituting a waiver of any such Event of Default, and if the Obligations are not paid in full by the Termination Date, and without waiving the maturity of the Obligations on the Termination Date, bear interest at the per annum rate of eighteen percentage points (18.0%) above the Interest Rate or above such other interest rate applicable to such portion of the Daily Balance (the Default Rate).

C.  In no event shall interest on the Obligations exceed the highest lawful rate in effect from time to time. It is not the intention of the parties hereto to make an agreement which violates any applicable state or federal usury laws. In no event shall Borrower pay or Lender accept or charge any interest which, together with any other charges upon the principal or any portion thereof, exceeds the maximum lawful rate of interest allowable under any applicable state or federal usury laws. Should any provision of this Agreement or any existing or future Notes or Loan Documents between the parties be construed to require the payment of interest or any other fees or charges which could be construed as interest which, together with any other charges upon the principal or any portion thereof and any other fees or charges which could be construed as interest, exceeds the maximum lawful rate of interest, then any such excess shall be applied to the remaining principal balance of the Obligations, if any, and the remainder refunded to Borrower.

D.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement, it is the intention of Borrower and Lender that "interest" shall mean, and be limited to, any payment to Lender which compensates it for extending credit to Borrower, for making available to Borrower a revolving credit facility during the term of this Agreement and for any default or breach by Borrower of a condition upon which credit was extended. Borrower and Lender agree that, for the sole purpose of calculating the "interest" paid by Borrower to Lender, it is the intention of Borrower and Lender that interest shall mean and include, and be expressly limited to, any interest accrued on the aggregate outstanding balance of the Obligations during the term hereof pursuant to Sections 2.4(A) and 2.4(B); and any Overadvance Fee, Special Credit Accommodation Fee, Facility Fee, and late payment fees charged to Borrower during the term hereof.

To the extent, however, that California law excludes from the calculation of "interest" any fees defined herein as interest, or includes as interest any fees or other sums which are intended not to constitute interest California law shall supersede and prevail and all such interest shall be subject to paragraph 2.4(C) above.
