The Borrower will make all payments in lawful money of the United States of America.

 

PAYMENT SCHEDULE. This Agreement will be paid according to the following required payment schedule: Beginning on October 16, 2022, monthly payments of accrued and unpaid interest. The unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued interest and charges owing in connection therewith, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. All payments received by the Lender from the Bonower for application to this Agreement may be applied to the Bon-ower's obligations under this Agreement in such order as detennined by the Lender.

 

INTEREST RATE AND SCHEDULED PAYMENT CHANGES, Interest will begin to accrue on September 30, 2022. The initial variable interest rate on this Agreement will be 5.500% per annum. This interest rate may change on October l) 2022, and eve1y day thereafter. Each date on which the interest rate may change is called the "Change Date." Prior to each Change Date, Lender will calculate the new interest rate based on Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the Change Date (the ¹¹Index¹¹) plus 0.000 percentage points (the "Margin¹¹), The interest rate will never be greater than 20.000% or less than 3.990%.

 

If the Index is not available at the time of the Change Date) Lender will choose a new Index which is based on comparable information. The Index is used solely to establish a base from which tile actual rate of interest payable under the Agreement will be calculated, and is not a reference to any actual rate of interest charged by any lender to any particular borrower.

 

Nothing contained herein shall be construed as to require the Borrower to pay interest at a greater rate than the maximum allowed by law. If, however, from any circumstances, Borrower pays interest at a greater rate than the maximum allowed by law, the obligation to be fulfilled will be reduced to an amount computed at the highest rate of interest permissible under applicable law and if, for any reason whatsoever, Lender ever receives interest in an amount which would be deemed unlawful under applicable law, such interest shall be automatically applied to amounts owed, in Lender's sole discretion) or as otherwise allowed by applicable law. An increase in the interest rate will result in a higher payment amount. Interest on this Agreement is calculated on an Actual/360 day basis. This calculation method results in a higher effective interest rate than the numeric interest rate stated in this Agreement.

LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. If any required payment is more than 10 days late, then at Lender's option, Lender will assess a late payment charge of 5.000% of the amount of the regularly scheduled payment then past due, subject to a maximum charge of $1)000.00 and a 1ninimum charge of $30.00.
