Usury Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (a) all agreements and communications between Borrower and Lender are hereby and shall automatically be limited so that, after taking into account all amounts deemed interest, the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lender shall never exceed the maximum lawful rate or amount, (b) in calculating whether any interest exceeds the lawful maximum, all such interest shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread over the full amount and term of all principal indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, and (c) if through any contingency or event, Lender receives or is deemed to receive interest in excess of the lawful maximum, any such excess shall be deemed to have been applied toward payment of the principal of any and all then outstanding indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, or if there is no such indebtedness, shall immediately be returned to Borrower.
Usury Laws. This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Debt at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Debt at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Security Instrument and the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding.
Usury Laws. It is the intention of the Borrowers and the holder(s) of this Note to conform strictly to all applicable usury laws now or hereafter in force, and any interest payable under this Note shall be subject to reduction to the amount not in excess of the maximum legal amount allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the holder hereof resulting from an Event of Default, voluntary prepayment by the Borrowers or otherwise, then earned interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the holders hereof either be rebated to the Borrowers or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess shall be rebated to the Borrowers. The aggregate of all interest (whether designated as interest, service charges, points or otherwise) contracted for, chargeable, or receivable under this Note shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum legal rate upon the unpaid principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to the Borrowers or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been repaid, then such excess shall be rebated to the Borrowers.
Usury Laws. This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition, and it is the expressed intent of the parties, that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such rate of interest shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note. No application to the principal balance of the Note pursuant to this Section 18.16 shall give rise to any requirement to pay any prepayment fee or charge of any kind due hereunder, if any.
Usury Laws. The parties intend to contract in strict compliance with the usury Laws of the State of California and, to the extent applicable, the U.S. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operative Documents, LESSEE will not be obligated to pay Default Interest or other interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious interest rate, as in effect from time to time, which may by applicable Law be charged, contracted for, reserved, received or collected by LESSOR in connection with the Operative Documents. During any period of time in which the then-applicable highest lawful rate is lower than the Default Interest rate, Default Interest will accrue and be payable at such highest lawful rate; however, if at later times such highest lawful rate is greater than the Default Interest rate, then LESSEE will pay Default Interest at the highest lawful rate until the Default Interest which is paid by LESSEE equals the amount of interest that would have been payable in accordance with the interest rate set forth in Article 5.5.
Usury Laws. It is the intention of the Company and Maker to conform strictly to all applicable usury laws now or hereafter in force, and any interest payable under this Note shall be subject to reduction to the amount not in excess of the maximum legal amount allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the Company resulting from an Event of Default, voluntary prepayment by Maker or otherwise, then earned interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the Company either be rebated to Maker or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess shall be rebated to Maker. The aggregate of all interest (whether designated as interest, service charges, points or otherwise) contracted for, chargeable, or receivable under this Note shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum legal rate upon the unpaid principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to Maker or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been repaid, then such excess shall be rebated to Maker.
Usury Laws. This Mortgage and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall the Mortgagor be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which the Mortgagor is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Mortgage or the Note, the Mortgagor is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note.
Usury Laws. It is the intention of Maker and Holder to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note, the aggregate of all interest and any other charges or consideration constituting interest under applicable usury law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under this Note or otherwise in connection with this transaction shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by the usury law applicable to this transaction. If any excess interest charge or consideration in such respect is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, received or provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, received or provided for, in this Note, whether by the terms of this Note or because the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is accelerated for any reason, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then in any such event (a) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (b) neither Maker nor Maker's heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors or assigns or any other liable party shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the legal limit for interest rates, (c) any excess shall be deemed a mistake and cancelled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on this Note by the Holder hereof (or if this Note shall have been paid in full, refunded to Maker) and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum interest rate allowed by law as the law may now or hereafter be construed by courts of appropriate jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, received or provided for under this Note which are made for the purpose of determining whether the interest rate exceeds the legal limit for interest rates, shall be made, to the extent allowed by law, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the Note evidenced hereby, all interest at any time taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, received or provided for under this Note.

Usury Laws. Regardless of any provisions contained in this Note, the Payee shall never be deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest on the Note, any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in the event Payee ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and, if the principal balance of this Note is paid in full, then any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Maker. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, Maker and Payee shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment (other than payments which are expressly designated as interest payments hereunder) as an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (c) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term.
Usury Laws. Any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower and the Lender agree that they do not intend for the interest or other consideration provided for in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to be greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Regardless of any provision in this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, the Lender shall not be entitled to receive, collect or apply, as interest on the Obligations, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law until such time, if any, as that interest, together with all other interest then payable, falls within the then applicable maximum lawful rate of interest. If the Lender shall receive, collect or apply any amount in excess of the then maximum rate of interest, the amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied first to the reduction of the principal amount of the Obligations then outstanding in the inverse order of maturity, and second, if such principal amount is paid in full, any excess shall forthwith be returned to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Borrower and the Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, (c) consider all the Obligations as one general obligation of the Borrower, and (d) "spread" the total amount of the interest throughout the entire term of the Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of the Note.
