The Additional Payments shall be paid quarterly, based on the prior fiscal year, and shall be prorated for partial fiscal quarters, as applicable.

5. Unsecured. This Debenture is an unsecured obligation of Maker and will rank pari passu in right of payment of principal and interest with all other unsecured obligations of Maker.
6. Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered or if faxed with confirmation of receipt or if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at the address of Maker on the first page of this Debenture, or if to Purchaser, to the address set forth in the Subscription Agreement.

7. Usury. This Debenture is hereby expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the loan evidenced hereby, payment of the Additional Payments or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Purchaser hereunder for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money exceed that permissible under applicable law. If at any time the performance of any provision of this Debenture or of any other agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Debenture involves a payment exceeding the limit of interest that may be validly charged for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money under applicable law, then automatically and retroactively, ipso facto, the obligation to be performed shall be reduced to such limit, it being the specific intent of Maker and Purchaser that all payments under this Debenture are to be credited first to interest as permitted by law, but not in excess of (i) the agreed rate of interest set forth herein or therein or (ii) that permitted by law, whichever is the lesser, and the balance toward the reduction of principal. The provisions of this Section 7 shall never be superseded or waived and shall control every other provision of this Debenture and all other agreements and instruments between Maker and Purchaser entered into in connection with this Debenture.
