Project, as described more fully in that certain Miami Forever Bond ("Bond") Amended Loan
Agreement between the Maker and the Lender of even date herewith (the "Amended Loan

favor of the Lender, relating to real property located at 829-845-847 Southwest 8 Street Miami, FL

All sums advanced hereunder together with accrued interest thereon and all other sums due
hereunder shall become immediately due and payable, without notice or demand, upon the occurrence
of any one or more of the following events of default, subject to any applicable cure period as
provided in the Amended Loan Documents: (a) the Maker's failure to promptly pay in full any
payment of principal or interest due under this Amended Promissory Note; (b) the Maker's failure to
pay any insurance premium when due; (c) the dissolution, termination of existence, insolvency of,
business failure, appointment of a receiver for any part of the property or assignment for the benefit
of creditors by, or the commencement of any proceedings under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws,
by or against any maker or guarantor hereof which shall continue beyond any applicable cure period
set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement; (d) any uncured breach, following the giving of notice of
breach and the expiration of any applicable cure period(s), by the Maker of any of the terms,
covenants or conditions set forth in the Amended Loan Agreement, the Amended Mortgage, the

as a waiver of such right or of any other right under this Amended Promissory Note. A waiver by the

bar to, or waiver of, any such right and/or remedy as to any future occasion.
The Maker agrees that in the event each and every of the terms and conditions of this Promissory
Note or any instrument which secures or collateralizes the payment of the sums hereunder is not duly

presentment.
The Maker does not intend or expect to pay, nor does the Lender intend or expect to charge, collect

applicable law. Should the acceleration hereof or any charges made hereunder result in the computation
or earning of interest in excess of such legal rate, any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby
waived by the Lender, and any such excess shall be credited by the Lender to the balance hereof.

and/or interest which is not paid within five (5) days of the date on which it is due. In the event that any
payment is returned on account of insufficient or uncollected funds, the Maker shall additionally be liable
for a return check charge of five percent (5.0%) of the amount of the check and Lender may require that
all future payments be made by cashier's check.

due. Upon the occurrence of any event of default as defined herein or an Event of Default as defined in the
