   CONDENSED STATEMENT OF INCOME - continued


   (i)       The Company reports on a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on
             the Sunday nearest to December 31.  Fiscal year 1998 will
             have 53 weeks and the quarter ended April 5, 1998 is a 14
             week period.  Fiscal year 1997 had 52 weeks and the quarter
             ended March 30, 1997 was a 13 week period.

   (ii)      BASIC: 'Basic' earnings per common share are computed by
             dividing net income available to common shareholders by the
             weighted average number of common shares outstanding:
             10,575,923 and 10,544,095 for the three months ended April
             5, 1998, and March 30, 1997, respectively.  This replaces
             'primary' earnings per share, which included common stock
             equivalents in the calculation.  The prior year per share
             amounts are restated to reflect the current presentation.

   (iii)     DILUTED: 'Diluted' net income per share includes options,
             warrants and convertible securities in the calculation.  The
             total number of shares used in the fully-diluted calculation
             for the three months ended April 5, 1998, and March 30,
             1997, were 10,831,973 and 10,795,445, respectively.

                          SCOTSMAN INDUSTRIES, INC.

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




   (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

   The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
   of Scotsman Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the
   "Company").

   All accounting policies used in the preparation of the quarterly
   condensed financial statements are consistent with the accounting
   policies described in the notes to financial statements for the year
   ended December 28, 1997, appearing in the Company's 1997 Annual Report
   to Shareholders ("Annual Report").  In the opinion of management, the
   interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are
   necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position,
   results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
   presented.  The results for such interim periods are not necessarily
   indicative of results for the full year.  These financial statements
   should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
   statements and the accompanying notes to consolidated financial
   statements included in the Annual Report.

   (2) INVENTORIES:

   Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

                                            Apr. 5,         Dec. 28, 
                                              1998            1997

                                              ======          ======
















                                                                9<PAGE>


   (3)  ACQUISITION OF KYSOR:


   In March of 1997, the Company acquired Kysor Industrial Corporation
   ("Kysor"), a major manufacturer and marketer of refrigerated display
   cases, commercial refrigeration systems and insulated panels primarily
   serving the supermarket industry.  The Company purchased Kysor's
   common and preferred stock  for an aggregate purchase price of $311
   million.   Concurrent with the purchase, the Company sold Kysor's
   Transportation Products Group to a third party for an aggregate
   purchase price of $86 million plus assumption of certain liabilities. 
   The Company retained possession of Kysor's Commercial Products Group. 
   Goodwill relating to the acquisition of Kysor was $196.8 million,
   which is being amortized for book purposes over 40 years using the
   straight-line method.  In addition, there was a goodwill amount of
   $12.6 million related to an investment which was recorded in other
   noncurrent assets in the balance sheet.

   The purchase price was allocated principally to goodwill of $196.8
   million, working capital of $44.8 million, property, plant and
   equipment of $36.4 million, severance and other Kysor employee related
   liabilities of $43.7 million, and deferred tax impacts of $17.5
   million. 

   Kysor reported total sales in 1996 of $381 million, of which $245
   million related to commercial refrigeration products.

   The accompanying unaudited condensed pro forma income statement
   information is presented to illustrate the effect of certain events on
   the historical income statement information of the Company as if the
   acquisition of Kysor had occurred as of the first day of the period
   presented.  The pro forma information includes assumptions and
   estimates and is not necessarily indicative of the results of
   operations of the Company as they may be in the future or as they
   might have been had the transaction occurred as discussed above.  The
   pro forma results of operations for the year-to-date period ended
   March 30, 1997, include certain adjustments made by Kysor prior to
   acquisition anticipating the completion of the transaction.  These
   adjustments related to changes in the accounting estimates for the
   carrying values of certain assets and liabilities and the combining of
   four of Kysor's business units into two business units.  Management
   does not expect these adjustments to occur in the future.

   The unaudited condensed pro forma income statement information should
   be read in conjunction with the historical condensed financial
   statements and notes thereto of the Company appearing elsewhere
   herein.

     The Company has not presented separate financial statements and other

   holders of the Senior Subordinated Notes.

   (5) LONG-TERM DEBT COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS ON DIVIDENDS


   In March of 1997, the Company financed the acquisition of Kysor, after
   giving effect to the divestiture of Kysor's Transportation Products
   Group and other acquisition related transactions, through a $415
   million loan facility established between the Company, Scotsman Group
   Inc. and certain other subsidiaries and The First National Bank of
   Chicago as agent for the lenders (the "FNBC Facility").  The agreement
   governing the FNBC Facility and other debt agreements include various
   financial covenants.  The Company was in compliance with these
   covenants as of April 5, 1998.  One of the covenants in the FNBC
   Facility has the effect of restricting the amount of the Company's
   dividends to its shareholders by requiring the Company to maintain
   consolidated stockholder's equity of at least $120 million (without
   giving effect to future changes in accumulated translation
   adjustments), plus 60 percent of (i) the cumulative net income of the
   Company from December 30, 1996, forward and (ii) the net cash proceeds
   from any future issuance of equity securities by the Company after the
   closing of the FNBC Facility.  At April 5, 1998, consolidated
   stockholder's equity of the Company was $142.7 million.  Under this
   covenant the amount of retained earnings that was restricted as of
   April 5, 1998 was $61.0 million.  The Company is also precluded from
   paying dividends to its shareholders (other than dividends payable in
   its own capital stock) if a default or an unmatured default under the
   agreement has occurred and is continuing or would occur after giving
   effect to the payment of such dividends.  Also, under a covenant in
   the indenture under which the Senior Subordinated Notes were issued,
   $70.1 million of retained earnings of the Company and its wholly-owned
   subsidiary Scotsman Group Inc. were restricted as of April 5, 1998.

   (6) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

   As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting
   Standards Board (the FASB) Statement No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
   Income."  Statement No. 130 requires reporting certain transactions
   that result in a change in equity, such as currency translation,
   unrealized gains and losses and minimum pension liability adjustments,
   as components of comprehensive income.  The adoption of this Statement
   had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholder's equity. 
   During the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income
   (loss) amounted to $(0.1) million and $(0.7) million, respectively. 
   Total comprehensive income (loss) for the Company includes net income,
   foreign currency translation adjustments and deferred compensation
   adjustments.














                                      12<PAGE>


   (7) CURRENT AND PENDING ACCOUNTING CHANGES

   In July, 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 131, "Disclosures about
   Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information."  This Statement
   expands certain reporting and disclosure requirements for segments
   from current standards.  In February, 1998, the FASB issued Statement
   No. 132, "Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other
   Postretirement Benefits."  This Statement revised employer's
   disclosures about pension and other postretirement benefit plans.  It
   does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans.  The
   Company is not required to adopt these Statements until December, 1998
   and does not expect the adoption of these standards to result in
   material changes to previously reported amounts.

   In January, 1998, Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98-1, "Accounting
   for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal
   Use," was issued.  This SOP provides guidance on the accounting for
   computer software costs.  In April, 1998, SOP No. 98-5, "Reporting on
   the Costs of Start-Up Activities," was issued.  This SOP provides
   guidance on accounting for the cost of start-up activities.  The
   Company is not required to adopt these Statements until January, 1999
   and does not expect the adoption of these standards to result in
   material changes to previously reported amounts or disclosures.

   recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for
   a more detailed discussion of the foregoing and other factors. 

   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Net sales for the first quarter of 1998 were $152.2 million, up $54.1
   million or 55 percent from sales for the first quarter of 1997.  First
   quarter 1998 results included sales of $66.6 million from the
   Commercial Products Group of Kysor, which was acquired by the Company
   in March, 1997.  First quarter 1997 results included sales from March
   10 through March 30 of $14.5 million from Kysor.

   Sales to the food retailing industry consist primarily of refrigerated
   display case and walk-in cooler and freezer sales by Kysor.  Kysor's
   sales, representing approximately 44 percent of the Company's sales
   for the first quarter of 1998, were $66.6 million, an increase of
   $13.2 million, or 25 percent, over pro forma first quarter 1997 sales
   of $53.3 million.  Demand for Kysor's products strengthened during the
   quarter, and the backlog of orders from supermarkets remains at record
   levels.

   ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
           CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED

   Sales to the commercial foodservice industry consist primarily of the
   Company's commercial ice machine, food preparation and storage
   equipment and beverage systems products.  Sales of these foodservice
   products, representing 56 percent of the Company's sales for the first
   quarter of 1998, were $85.6 million, an increase of 4 percent over the
   prior year period, using constant foreign exchange rates.  Sales
   stated at actual exchange rates increased 2 percent in the first
   quarter of 1998.  Worldwide ice machine sales in the first quarter of
   1998 were $40.6 million, an increase of 8 percent over the same period
   of 1997, using constant foreign exchange rates.  Sales stated at
   actual exchange rates increased 5 percent in 1998.  The increase in
   ice machine sales was primarily driven by growth in the overall
   domestic ice machine market during the first quarter of 1998, combined
   with an improvement in sales overseas as market conditions in Europe
   improved over first quarter 1997.

   Sales of food preparation and storage equipment, decreased 14 percent
   in the first quarter of 1998 compared to the first quarter of the
   prior year.  Sales were lower as a direct result of lower activity
   with Boston Market in the first quarter of 1998 than in the same
   period of 1997, partially offset by other sales activity at the
   Company' Delfield business.

   Sales of beverage systems, increased 25 percent in U. S. dollars in
   the first quarter of 1998 compared to the first quarter of 1997. 
   Ignoring the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates, sales of
   beverage systems increased 28 percent in the first quarter of 1998
   over the prior year period.  Increased European market penetration and
   continued sales gains by the Company's U.K.-based beverage dispensing
   business, combined with the addition of Homark, a manufacturer of
   equipment serving the U.K. beer industry which was acquired by the
   Company in December, 1997, led to the sales gains.

   ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED

   The Company's gross profit increased by $11.5 million, or 45 percent,
   to $37.1 million in the first quarter of 1998 from $25.6 million in
   the first quarter of 1997, primarily due to the impact of the Kysor
   Acquisition.  However, the Company's gross profit margin decreased as
   a percentage of net sales to 24.4 percent in the first quarter of 1998
   from 26.1 percent in the first quarter of 1997.  The reduction in
   margins in the first quarter of 1998 is attributable to the inclusion
   of a full quarter of results of Kysor, which historically has reported
   lower gross profit margins.  Kysor was acquired by the Company in
   March, 1997, and first quarter 1997 included Kysor results from March
   10 through March 30.  The Company's gross profit margins in
   foodservice products increased in the first quarter of 1998 from the
   same period in 1997 principally due to  increased sales of beverage
   systems and ice machines in 1998.

   Selling and administrative expenses of $22.4 million increased by $7.3
   million or 48 percent in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to the
   first quarter of 1997.  The increase in selling and administrative
   expenses is largely attributable to the inclusion of a full quarter of
   Kysor results in the first quarter of 1998, including amortization of
   intangibles related to the purchase of Kysor of $1.2 million during
   the quarter.  Kysor results were included for the period March 10
   through March 30 in 1997.  As a percentage of net sales, selling and
   administrative expenses decreased in the first quarter of 1998 to 14.7
   percent from 15.4 percent reported in the first quarter of 1997.  The
   Kysor business units have historically reported lower gross profit
   margins, but also lower selling and administrative expenses as a
   percent of sales as compared to the balance of the Company's
   businesses.

   Income from operations of $12.9 million for the first quarter of 1998
   increased by $3.4 million or 36 percent from the first quarter of 1997
   which reflects the contribution to profits of the Kysor business.  As
   a percentage of net sales, 1998 first quarter income from operations
   decreased to 8.5 percent from 9.7 percent in 1997.  The decline is the
   result of lower gross profit margins discussed above, and additional
   amortization of intangibles resulting from the Kysor acquisition of
   $1.2 million in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to $0.3 million
   in the first quarter of 1997.

   ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED

   Net interest expense of $7.2 million for the first quarter of 1998
   increased by $5.0 million when compared to the first quarter of the
   prior year. The Company incurred increased domestic borrowings to fund
   the acquisition of Kysor beginning on March 10, 1997, whereas such
   borrowings were in place for the full first quarter of 1998.

   The Company's overall income tax rate for the first quarter of 1998
   was 58.8 percent compared to 47.1 percent for the first quarter of
   1997.  The higher income tax rate in 1998 is primarily attributable to
   the impact of $1.2 million per quarter of additional amortization of
   intangibles resulting from the Kysor Acquisition, which is not tax
   deductible.

   Net income for the first quarter of 1998 was $2.3 million, or $0.22
   per share compared to first quarter 1997 net income of $3.2 million,
   or $0.30 per share.  First quarter 1997 net income included a one-time
   after-tax charge of $633,000 incurred for the early retirement of $20
   million of 11.43 percent private placement debt.  The $0.9 million, or
   $0.08 per share decline in first quarter 1998 net income principally
   reflects a full quarter's amortization and interest expense related to
   last year's mid-March acquisition of Kysor.  Nonetheless, management
   expects that Kysor will be accretive to earnings for total fiscal year
   1998.

   The Company has been evaluating its computer software programs and
   operating systems for the Year 2000 compliance.  Based on this
   assessment, the Company determined that it is required to modify
   portions of its software during 1998 and 1999 so that its computer
   systems will properly utilize dates beyond December 31, 1999.  Based
   on present information the Company believes that it will be able to
   achieve Year 2000 compliance, and that the cost associated with
   achieving such compliance will not have a material effect on its
   financial condition or results of operations.  However, if such
   upgrades, modifications and conversions are not made, or are not made
   in a timely manner, the Year 2000 issue could have a material impact
   on the Company's operations.

   The Company is currently communicating with its suppliers and
   customers regarding Year 2000 compliance within their organizations. 
   In the event that any of the Company's significant suppliers or
   customers does not successfully and timely achieve Year 2000
   compliance, the Company's business or operations could be adversely
   affected.

   ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   Historically, the Company's liquidity requirements have arisen
   primarily from the need to fund its working capital, capital
   expenditures, acquisitions, and interest expense, including fixed
   obligations associated with debt or lease obligations.  The Company
   has met these liquidity requirements through use of funds generated
   from operations, along with financing from various sources.  The
   Company expects to continue to generate significant cash flow from
   operations, which will be used to run the Company's businesses and
   fund further growth.  Increased levels of working capital, capital
   expenditures and interest expense associated with the Kysor
   Acquisition are not expected to adversely impact the Company's
   liquidity and access to capital.  

   In March of 1997, the Company financed the acquisition of Kysor, after
   giving effect to the divestiture of Kysor's Transportation Products
   Group and other acquisition related transactions, through a $415
   million loan facility established between the Company, Scotsman Group
   and certain other subsidiaries and The First National Bank of Chicago
   as agent for the lenders (the "FNBC Facility").  The FNBC Facility
   originally consisted of a $150 million seven-year term loan and a $265
   million seven-year reducing revolving loan facility, both with an
   initial interest rate of 1.375 percent above Eurocurrency rates.  The
   interest rates on both facilities adjust based on a leverage ratio as
   defined in the FNBC Facility and vary between 0.5 percent to 1.50
   percent above Eurocurrency rates.  The revolving portion of the FNBC
   Facility reduces on December 31 in the respective years as follows:
   $10 million in 1998, and $15 million in each of 1999, 2000, 2001,
   2002, and 2003, with the remaining amount outstanding payable on the
   loan termination date in March 2004.  The FNBC Facility is guaranteed
   by Scotsman and certain of its subsidiaries and secured by a pledge of
   stock of certain subsidiaries of Scotsman, including, but not limited
   to, Scotsman Group Inc., The Delfield Company and Kysor Industrial
   Corporation.

   The FNBC Facility required that a notional amount of $150 million be
   hedged to reduce interest rate exposure for three years.  Interest-
   rate swaps were established in 1997 to comply with the requirement
   imposed by the FNBC Facility.

   ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - CONTINUED

   In addition to financing the Kysor acquisition, proceeds of the FNBC
   facility were used to pay expenses associated with this acquisition
   and were used to repay existing long-term debt, including debt
   outstanding under a former $90.0 million reducing revolving credit
   agreement and the $20.0 million private placement agreement.  This
   early repayment resulted in an after-tax loss of $633,000 in the first
   quarter of 1997, which is presented in the accompanying income
   statement in PART I, ITEM 1 as an extraordinary loss.

   In 1997, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Scotsman Group Inc.
   issued $100 million of 8-5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes")
   and used the net proceeds of the Notes to repay $30 million of the
   term loan under the FNBC Facility and also to repay amounts
   outstanding under the revolving credit portion of the FNBC Facility. 
   During the first fiscal quarter of 1998, the Company repaid $10
   million of the term loan, as required under the FNBC Facility.

   The agreement governing the FNBC Facility and other debt agreements to
   which the Company and its subsidiaries are parties include various
   financial covenants, including covenants which have the effect of
   restricting the amount of the Company's dividends to its shareholders. 
   The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of April 5,
   1998.  Under such covenants, $61.0 million of retained earnings of the
   Company and $70.1 million of retained earnings of the Company and its
   wholly-owned subsidiary, Scotsman Group Inc., were restricted as of
   April 5, 1998.  See Note 5 to the financial statements included in
   this report for a more detailed description of the covenants
   restricting payments of dividends.

   The Company utilized cash flow from operations of $2.9 million for the
   first three months of 1998 compared to cash flow utilized by operating
   activities of $8.9 million for the first three months of 1997. 

   The following changes in the balance sheet categories from December
   28, 1997, until April 5, 1998, excluding the impact of changes in
   foreign exchange rates on those categories:

        Inventory increased by $6.4 million, which reflects increased
        seasonal activity both domestically and in the Company's foreign
        subsidiaries.

   ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - CONTINUED

        Accounts receivable were $4.8 million higher, primarily as a
        result of the sales increase in the first quarter of 1998
        compared to the first quarter of 1997.   

        Trade accounts payable were $5.1 million higher which reflects
        the impact of seasonal volume.  

   Capital expenditures, including those funded through capital leases,
   increased $0.1 million, or 5 percent, to $2.4 million for the first
   quarter of 1998 from $2.3 million for the first three months of 1997. 
   Capital expenditures in 1998 were made primarily to fund equipment to
   realize productivity improvements, new product tooling, and
   maintenance and replacement items.  

   Cash and temporary cash investments of $13.1 million as of April 5,
   1998, decreased by $11.0 million from December 28, 1997, reflecting
   the decrease in cash balances at the Company's foreign operations. In
   January, 1998, Scotsman Group Inc. received net dividends of $13.7
   million from foreign operations which were then used by Scotsman Group
   Inc. to reduce borrowing under the FNBC facility.

   Shareholders' equity increased $0.1 million from December 28, 1997,
   which is primarily attributable to net income of $2.3 million for the
   first three months of 1998, offset by a reduction in shareholders' 
   equity caused by changes in accumulated foreign currency translation
   adjustments of $2.4 million and the impact of dividends. 

   Short-term debt increased $4.5 million from December 28, 1997 due to
   temporary short-term domestic borrowings.  Total debt, including
   capital leases, was $346.0 million as of April 5, 1998 compared to
   $350.7 million as of December 28, 1997.  The debt to capital ratio was
   71 percent at April 5, 1998, which is the same percentage as at
   December 28, 1997.

   On February 10, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
   dividend of 2 1/2 cents per share payable to common shareholders of
   record on March 31, 1998.

   Since its first quarter as a publicly-held company, the Company has
   paid a quarterly dividend of 2 1/2 cents per share.  The continuation,
   amount and timing of this dividend will be determined by the Board of
   Directors and may change as conditions warrant.

        This  Note is  a note  under which  advances, repayments  and new
   advances may be made from time  to time, provided that Bank shall  not
   be obligated to make any  advance hereunder. Advances hereunder may be
   requested in  Maker's discretion  by telephonic notice  to Bank  or by
   submission of a request  for advance in form annexed hereto as Exhibit
   "A".   Any advance requested  by telephonic  notice (i) shall  be made
   only to Account  No.1076111614 with Bank  in the name  of Maker or  to
   such other  account as Maker  shall subsequently designate  by written
   notice to Bank, and (ii) shall be confirmed by  Maker that same day by
   submission  to Bank  by first  class mail  of the written  request for
   advance  aforementioned.  Maker  acknowledges that  if  Bank  makes an
   advance  based  on a  telephonic  request,  it  shall be  for  Maker's
   convenience and all risks involved in the use of  such procedure shall
   be borne by Maker,  and Maker expressly  agrees to indemnify and  hold
   Bank  harmless  therefor. Bank  shall  have  no  duty to  confirm  the
   authority of anyone requesting an advance by telephone.

        Each advance outstanding under this  Note from time to time shall
   bear  interest  at  a  per  annum  rate  equal  to  Bank's prime  rate
   established by Bank from time to  time or such other rate accepted  by
   Bank with  respect thereto,  and shall be  payable upon  the repayment
   date therefor.  The amount,  rate and repayment  date of  each advance
   shall be noted  on Bank's records, which  records will be prima  facie
   evidence thereof, absent manifest error. Failure to pay any advance on
   its repayment date, without Bank's consent, shall constitute a default
   and such advance shall thereafter  bear interest at three percent (3%)
   above said prime  rate as it  may vary from time  to time until  paid.
   Interest shall be  computed on a daily basis using a  year of 360 days
   and assessed for  the actual number of days elapsed.  Interest on each
   advance shall be payable monthly on the last day of  each month in the
   case  of  a  prime  based advance,  and  in  all  other  cases on  the
   respective repayment date therefore which date shall not be later than
   the maturity date of this Note.<PAGE>





        This Note replaces  that certain Promissory Note  dated March 10,
   1998,  by  Maker payable  to Bank  in  the principal  amount  of Seven
   Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,500,000.00).

        Whenever Bank deems itself insecure,  or on default in payment of
   any  liability hereunder,  or upon  the occurrence  of any  Default as
   defined  under that  Scotsman Group  Inc.  Revolving Credit  Agreement
   dated as of March 12, 1997,  among Maker, certain affiliates of Maker,
   The First National Bank of Chicago, as Agent, Bank, as lender, and the
   various banks listed  on the signature pages thereof  (as amended from
   time  to time  in writing  by  and between  the parties  thereto), the
   representations, warranties, covenants and default provisions of which
   are hereby incorporated  by reference into this  Note, notwithstanding
   the  earlier termination  and  expiration  of  said  Revolving  Credit
   Agreement, as  said representations, warranties, covenants and default
   provisions may be amended from time to time in writing by  and between
   the parties  thereto, or  upon any  default  in payment  of any  other
   liability of Maker  to Bank and continuance thereof  beyond any period
   of grace, if any, provided with  respect thereto, the Bank may declare
   this Note due forthwith. Nothing  herein shall limit any right granted
   Bank by other instrument or by law.
