PROMISSORY NOTE/LOAN AGREEMENT
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS (Page 1 of 4)
INDIVIDUAL LOAN PRICING PROGRAM: The Program provides for charging differential
interest rates according to loan classes determined by criteria adopted by the
Lender from time to time, such as type of loan, purpose, amount, quality,
funding costs, operating costs, servicing costs, and competitive interest rates.
There are separate types of loans and interest rates under the Program, each
having a different rate of interest, and the loans within each class are
assigned to an interest rate category. It is possible that the particular rate
for each class of loan may differ among such geographical areas as may be
designated from time to time. In the event that Borrowers default under the
terms or conditions of any promissory note, membership agreement, mortgage or
other security document, or any amendatory agreement to any of these, the Lender
at its option may adjust this loan to any less favorable interest rate category
then offered or maintained by Lender for loans of this type. The higher interest
rate shall become effective immediately upon placement of this loan into the
less favorable interest rate category by Lender, and the loan may, at the
option of Lender, remain in the less favorable interest rate category for the
remaining term of the loan, regardless of whether Borrowers later cure the
default. Lender shall not place the loan into a less favorable interest rate
category unless Lender has first given Borrowers written notice of the default,
and Borrowers fail to cure the default within 60 days after Lender has given the
notice. Notice shall be deemed to have been given when Lander places such notice
in the mail for first-class mailing to the last address of Borrowers known by
Lender. In addition to adjusting the loan to a less favorable interest rates
category, Lender may also charge the higher default interest rate described
below.
INTEREST RATE: If this is a:
(a) Variable Rate loan, the initial annual rate or interest is equal to the
Stated Interest Rate. The interest rate is subject to change at any time and by
any amount during the term of the loan and will vary from time to time at the
option of the Lender.
(b) Fixed Rate loan, the annual rate of interest is equal to the Stated
Interest Rate. The interest rate is not subject to change during the term of the
loan and will not be increased or decreased except in the event of default.
(c) Adjustable Rate Operating loan, the Initial annual rate of Interest is
equal to the Stated Interest Rate. The interest rate is subject to change at any
time and by any amount during the term of the loan, but only on and after the
first adjustment date, and the rate will not be increased or decreased prior to
that date except in the event of default.
(d) Adjustable Rate loan or an Adjustable Rate IT loan or an Adjustable
Rate Capital RLOC. The initial annual rate of interest is equal to the Stated
Interest Rate. The interest rate is subject to change by any amount during the
term of the loan, but only on the first adjustment date and on dates occurring
at the end of the successive adjustment intervals thereafter, and the rate will
not be increased or decreased during any one such interval except in the event
of default.
(e) Adjustable Rate Prime Rate Based loan, the initial annual rate of
interest is equal to the Stated Interest Rate. The index for adjustments is the
prime rate reported on the tenth day of the month preceding the interest rate
change date by the Wall Street Journal in its daily listing of money rates,
defined therein as "the base rate on corporate loans posted by at least 75
percent of the nation's 30 largest banks." If a prime rate is not reported on
the tenth day of a month, the prime rate reported on the first business day
preceding the tenth day of the month will be used. If this index is no longer
available, Lender will select a new index which is based upon comparable
information.
(f) Capped Non-indexed Variable Rata loan, the initial annual rate of
interest is equal to the Stated Interest Rate. The interest rate is subject to
change at any time and will vary from time to time at the option of the Lender.
The interest rate is not based on an index. Except during periods of default
when the additional percentage points specified herein shall be added to
increase the interest rate, the interest rate may not increase or decrease by
more than 6.00 percentage points above or below the initial annual rate of
interest on any single change date or during the term of the Loan.
(g) Fixed Then Indexed Adjustable Rate loan, the initial annual rate of
interest is equal to the Stated Interest Rate. Once the interest rate changes to
an adjustable interest rate at the end of the fixed interest rate period, the
index for adjustments is the estimated weekly average available for the one-year
bonds funding cost index as reported by the Federal Farm Credit Banks Funding
Corporation at its Web site, found in the Farm Credit System, Funding Cost
Index, Archive section at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx-xxxx.xxx, for that week which
contains the date that is 45 days before the date that the adjustable interest
rate is to be initially determined or subsequently adjusted. If the date that is
45 days before either the expiration date of the fixed interest rate period or
an Adjustment Interval is not a business day, the Lender shall use that
estimated weekly average for the one-year bonds funding cost index for that week
which immediately precedes the 45-day
[Column 2 of Page 1]
date. If this index is no longer available, the Lender will select a new index
which is based on comparable information. The Lender will give the Borrowers
notice of this choice,
(h) Indexed Adjustable Rate loan, the initial annual rate of interest is
equal to the Stated Interest Rate. The index for adjustments is the estimated
weekly average available for the one-year bonds funding cost index as reported
by the Federal Farm Credit Banks Funding Corporation at its Web site, found in
the Farm Credit System, Funding Cost Index, Archive section at
xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx-xxxx.xxx, for that week which contains the date that is 45
days before the date the interest rate is to be adjusted. If the date that is 45
days before the date the interest rate is to be adjusted is not a business day,
the Lender shall use that estimated weekly average for the one-year bonds
funding cost index for that week which immediately precedes the 45 day date. If
this index is no longer available, the Lender will select a new index which is
based on comparable information. The Lender will give the Borrowers notice of
this choice.
(i) Adjustable Rate LIBOR Based loan, the initial annual rate of interest
is equal to the Stated Interest Rate. The index for adjustments is the One Month
London Interbank Offered Rate ("One Month LIBOR") reported on the tenth day of
the month preceding the interest rate change date by the Wall Street Journal in
its daily listing of money rates, defined therein as "the average of interbank
offered rates for dollar deposits in the London market based on quotations at
five major banks." If a One Month LIBOR rate is not reported on the tenth day of
a month, the One Month LIBOR rate reported on the first business day preceding
the tenth day of the month will be used. If this index is no longer available,
Lender will select a new index which is based upon comparable information.
Interest may be based upon a 360- or 365-day year as the Lender may determine.
DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST: Prior to maturity, if Borrowers default under this
document, the entire unpaid principal balance of the loan, including all
advancements, shall bear interest from the date of default until the default is
cured or maturity of the loan is accelerated by reason of default at a rate
equal to the interest rate for this loan that would otherwise be in effect
during the period of default plus the Default Add-On Rate per annum (the
"default rate"), and the amount of such interest in excess of interest otherwise
accruing in the absence of default shall be immediately due and payable. At
maturity or upon acceleration of maturity by reason of default, the entire
indebtedness including all principal, interest and advancements shall bear
interest until paid at the default rate in effect at the time of maturity or
acceleration of maturity, as the case may be.
DISBURSEMENTS OF PRINCIPAL: Disbursements of principal may be made at various
times at Borrowers' request, subject to the provisions of this paragraph.
Repayments of principal under a Revolving Line of Credit reinstate the loan
commitment, subject to the terms of this document, but the total of the unpaid
balance of future advances together with the existing indebtedness hereunder, in
the aggregate at any one time outstanding, shall not exceed the Loan Amount;
otherwise, repayments of principal do not reinstate the loan commitment, and
total disbursements, in the aggregate, shall not exceed the Loan Amount. The
Lender may withhold further disbursements if it determines that: (a) the value
of the Collateral is insufficient; (b) loan proceeds have been used for purposes
not approved by the Lender; [c) loan payments have not been made in accordance
with the repayment plan contained in the loan application; or (d) an event has
occurred which entitles the Lender to accelerate maturity of the loan.
DRAFT PROGRAM AGREEMENT: If the Draft Program is applicable to this loan, the
Borrowers may draw loan funds using the draft forms furnished by the Lender,
subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Borrowers authorize and direct the Lender and its duly authorized
agents to accept drafts made or drawn by any one of the Borrowers and to
disburse loan funds accordingly, as specified in this document; however,
Borrowers agree not to use drafts as payments on this or other Obligations of
the Borrowers. The Borrowers may be charged a reasonable fee for this program
and the cost of printing drafts.
(b) The Borrowers jointly and severally accept responsibility for all
disbursements made pursuant to this authorization and direction. The Lender
shall not be obligated to inquire as to whether the Borrowers have issued
specific directions for any particular draft or to determine whether the
Borrowers have received the benefit of the proceeds of any particular draft
before honoring such draft. Drafts may be deposited directly into the bank
account of any one of the Borrowers.
(c) The minimum amount for which each draft may be written is the Minimum
Draft amount. In the event that Borrowers write any draft for an amount below
this minimum, the Lender may charge Borrowers a reasonable fee for each draft
that is not in compliance.
(d) Drafts may not be written in excess of the undisbursed loan commitment.
The Lender reserves the right to revoke all future draft privileges without
notice to the Borrowers in the event of an overdraft and the right to reject
drafts that are not written for purposes specified in the
PROMISSORY NOTE/LOAN AGREEMENT
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS (Page 2 of 4)
loan documents or pursuant to these terms and conditions. In the event that
Lender chooses to honor a draft which exceeds the available loan commitment,
Borrowers are liable for full repayment of the funds thus borrowed, plus
interest, and Lender may charge Borrowers a reasonable overdraft fee.
(e) The Borrowers agree to immediately notify the Lender in the event one
or more drafts are lost, stolen, destroyed or otherwise misused and to indemnify
the Lender and hold the Lender harmless from any loss or claim if any draft is
lost, stolen, forged, altered or otherwise misused if the Lender did not have
notice of the same at least 24 hours prior to honoring such draft.
(f) The Borrowers may stop payment on a draft by request to the Lender. The
Borrowers will be charged a reasonable fee for each stop-payment order and agree
to reimburse the Lender for all damages, costs and expenses as a result of the
Lender's refusal to honor such draft. The Lender shall not be liable in the
event the draft is honored following a stop-payment order if such order is not
received in sufficient time to permit dishonor.
(g) This authorization and direction shall be effective as to this and,
with the Lender's approval, other existing and future loans to the Borrowers and
shall continue in force and effect until the Lender receives written notice of
revocation signed by the Borrowers, provided, the privilege of using drafts may
be withdrawn by the Lender and unused drafts must be surrendered to the Lender
on demand.
FUNDS HELD PROGRAM: Lender may offer a Funds Held Program ("Program") that
allows Borrowers to make advance conditional payments on designated loans.
Lender reserves the right, in its discretion, to amend or terminate the Program.
The following terms and conditions apply to all Program accounts in connection
with loans from Lender.
(a) Subject to Lender's rights to direct the application of payments, an
advance payment made to be applied to future maturities on a loan will be placed
in a Program account ("Account") as of the date received. If a special
prepayment of principal is desired, Borrowers must so specify when an advance
payment is made.
(b) Interest will accrue on funds in the Account at such times and at such
rates as per Lender's Program. Lender may change the interest rate or accrual
period from time to time without notice. The Program may provide for different
interest rates for different categories of loans.
(c) When a loan installment or other related charge becomes due, funds in
the Account for that loan will be automatically applied on the due date toward
payment of the installment or related charge. Any accrued interest in the
Account will be applied first. If the funds in the Account are not adequate to
pay the entire installment or related charge, Borrowers must pay the difference
by the installment due date.
(d) Funds received after a loan installment or related charge has been
billed will be applied to the installment or related charge due. Funds received
in excess of the billed installment amount or related charge will be placed in
the Account.
Even though no installment or related charge is due, Lender may, at its option,
apply funds from the Account without notice to Borrowers as follows:
- Protective Advances. If Borrowers fail to pay when due other items
Borrowers are required to pay pursuant to any loan document, Lender may apply
funds in the Account to pay them.
- Account Ceiling. If the Account balance exceeds the unpaid balance on the
loan, Lender may apply the funds in the Account to pay off the loan and will
return any excess funds.
- Transfer of Security. If Borrowers sell, assign, or transfer any interest
in any collateral for the loan, Lender may apply the funds in the Account to the
remaining loan balance.
- Deceased Borrowers. If all Borrowers are deceased. Lender may apply the
funds in the Account to the remaining loan balance.
- Termination of Program. If Lender decides to terminate the Program, it
may apply all funds in the Account to the remaining loan balance effective on
the termination date.
(e) Lender may, in its discretion, permit Borrowers to withdraw funds from
the Account in accordance with Lender's Program.
(f) Neither the advance payments nor the accrued interest in an Account are
insured by a governmental agency or instrumentality. If Lender is placed in
liquidation, Borrowers shall be sent by the receiver such notices as required by
FCA regulations then in effect. Such regulations currently provide for advance
notice from the receiver that funds in the Account will be applied to the loan
and that funds in the Account will not earn interest after the receiver is
appointed.
LOAN PAYMENTS: If the loan is payable in installments and the period from
the day interest begins to the due date of the first installment is more than
the interval between installments, there may be an interest only payment due one
installment interval prior to the due date of the first installment, or the
interest may be included in the first installment at the
[Column 2 of Page 2]
option of the Lender, but if such period is less than the interval between
installments and principal and interest are payable in equal installments, then
the first installment will be decreased by the amount of interest not yet
accrued for that installment. The final installment may be more or less than
preceding installments, if any, and any periodic adjustments to the interest
rate will result in corresponding changes in the amount of installments, if the
loan is payable in installments, or the amount due at maturity. The Borrowers
may make advance payments in any amount and at any time without penalty.
Prepayments shall, at the option of the Lender, (a) be held by the Lender and
then applied to installments of principal and interest next scheduled to mature
in the order of maturity, (b) be immediately applied to payment of principal
then outstanding, resulting in a reamortization of the remaining balance of the
loan over the remaining term under the existing payment plan and in a
corresponding reduction in the amount of future installments of principal and
interest, or (c) be immediately applied to payment of principal then
outstanding, with, if an amortized loan, a corresponding reduction in the number
of future installments of principal and interest in the inverse order of
maturity, thus discharging the loan at an earlier date; provided, in any event,
the Lender may, at its option, first apply any such prepayments to the payment
of interest accrued to the date of prepayment.
PERSONAL PROPERTY AND FIXTURES: The following subsections (1) and (2) including
the definitions apply, in addition, only if the collateral described on
Promissory Note/Loan Agreement, and each addendum thereto, is personal property
or fixtures:
(1) Obligations and Collateral. The Borrowers grant to the Lender as

ASSIGNMENT OF LOAN: The Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer this loan to
any party other than AgriBank, FCB and its successors (the "Bank"], whether
absolutely or as collateral security and whether in the ordinary course of
business or otherwise, without the express written consent of the Bank. If this
loan is assigned or otherwise transferred to the Bank or another institution
chartered pursuant to the provisions of the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended,
("Act") the interest rate hereunder may be established by such institution in
accordance with the provisions of this document. If this loan is assigned or
transferred to a party not chartered under the Act, notwithstanding any contrary
provision in this document, in the absence of maturity or acceleration, the
following apply:
(a) If this is a Variable Rate loan or an Adjustable Rate Operating RLOC,
adjustments in the interest rate will be made only on the dates occurring at
successive intervals of one year each after the first day of the month and year
of such assignment based upon an index and margin. The index will be the weekly
average yield on United States Treasury securities, as made available by the
Federal Reserve Board, adjusted to a constant maturity of one year.
(b) If this is an Adjustable Rate Capital RLOC or Adjustable Rate IT loan,
the interest rate will continue to be adjusted on the dates and intervals
described therein based upon an index and margin. The index will be the same as
for a Variable Rate Loan, except it will be adjusted to a constant maturity of a
length equal to the length of the interval between adjustments specified above
(if U.S. Treasury yield figures are not available for this length, the U.S.
Treasury yield figures which are available for the closest length of time which
is shorter than the interval between adjustments will be used).
(c) For interest rate adjustments under (a) and (b), the margin will be the
amount by which the interest rate in effect for this loan at the time of the
assignment, in the absence of default, exceeds the index that would have been
effective for the date that this interest rate was established for this loan
(the last previous repricing date). The new interest rate will be calculated by
adding the margin to the applicable current index and rounding the total to the
nearest one-eighth of one percent, subject however, to the provision herein for
a higher default rate. The current index will be the most recent index available
as of 45 days before the date the interest rate is to be adjusted. If the
applicable index is not available,
PROMISSORY NOTE/LOAN AGREEMENT
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS (Page 4 of 4)
the Lender will select a new index which is based upon comparable information.
The interest rate shall never exceed the rate permitted by applicable law.
(d) If this is an Adjustable Rate Prime Rate Based loan, the margin that is
used for interest rate adjustments shall remain fixed for the remaining term of
the loan at the margin amount that is in effect at the time of the assignment
WAIVER: The Borrowers and other parties to this transaction (except the Lender},
and each of them, whether principal, surety, guarantor, endorser, or other
party, agree to be jointly and severally bound and, further, waive demand,
protest, and notice of demand, protest, or nonpayment, and agree that the
liability of each shall be unconditional without regard to the liability of any
other party and shall not be affected by any indulgence, extension or extensions
of time, renewal, waiver, release of any party or of any Collateral, or other
modifications granted or consented to by the Lender. The rights and powers
granted to the Lender hereunder shall not, nor shall any provision hereof, be
waived except in writing signed by the Lender, and the provisions hereof shall
not be modified, limited, or waived by any prior or subsequent course of dealing
between the parties or between the Borrowers and third parties or by any usage
of trade. To the extent the Bank gives or has given value to the Lender in
reliance hereon, either by way of loan or discount, the Borrowers hereby waive
any and all other defenses or right of offset which the Borrowers or any of them
may or might have against the Lender when this document is held by the Bank, its
collateral custodian, or the successors or assigns of either.
APPOINTMENT OF AGENT: Each of the Borrowers hereby appoints each of the other
Borrowers as agent for the purposes of this loan and, if applicable, the
Obligations and agrees that loan funds, dividends, stock retirement proceeds,
and other distributions may be disbursed to or by order of any one or more of
them. This appointment shall continue until written notice of termination is
received by the Lender.
ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIP: The Borrowers agree to purchase and maintain stock or
participation certificates in the Lender or the Lender's parent association, as
applicable, in amounts as may be required from time to time under the Capital
Plan adopted by the Board of Directors pursuant to applicable Bylaws.
MODIFICATION: No modification of this document or any related document shall be
enforceable unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement
is sought. Oral agreements or commitments to loan money, extend credit, or to
forbear from enforcing repayment of a debt including promises to extend or renew
such debt are not enforceable, regardless of the legal theory upon which it is
based that is in any way related to the credit agreement. To protect you {the
Borrowers) and us (the Lender) from misunderstanding or disappointment, any
agreements we reach covering such matters are contained in this writing, which
is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between us, except as
we may later agree in writing to modify it.
REPORTING: Lender, its agents, successors and assigns may report Borrowers'
names and information regarding this loan and all of Borrowers' past and future
loans to credit reporting agencies.
FOR ILLINOIS AND MISSOURI LOANS ONLY: Unless you (the Borrowers) provide us (the
Lender) with evidence of the insurance coverage required by your agreement with
us, we may purchase insurance at your expense to protect our interests in your
Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect your interests. The
coverage that we purchase may not pay any claim that you make or any claim that
is made against you in connection with the Collateral. You may later cancel any
Insurance purchased by us, but only after providing us with evidence that you
have obtained insurance as required by our agreement. If we purchase insurance
for the Collateral, you will be responsible for the costs of that insurance,
including interest and any other charges we may impose in connection with the
placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or
expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to your
total outstanding balance or obligation. The costs of the insurance may be more
than the cost of insurance you may be able to obtain on your own.
POWER OF ATTORNEY: Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoint the Lender as Borrowers'
attorney-in-fact to act for the Borrowers with full authority in the place and
name of the Borrowers to take any action and to execute any instrument which the
Lender may deem advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement,
including authority (a) to endorse, collect, xxx for, compromise, and receive
any drafts, instruments, documents, or moneys due in connection with the
Collateral; (b) to file any claims or take any action or institute any
proceedings which the Lender may deem desirable for the collection of any of the
Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Lender with respect to any
of the Collateral; (c) to disburse
[Column 2 of Page 4]
funds including paying insurance premiums, taxes, liens, and other costs of
preserving the Collateral; and (d) to establish, determine priority of, perfect,
continue as perfected, preserve, enforce, or terminate the Lender's rights and
interests under this Agreement. The Lender may charge its expenses of doing so
to any of the Obligations and the Borrowers shall pay them upon demand with
interest from the date each expense is incurred at the rate in effect on the
date each expense is incurred on the applicable Obligation.
AUTHORIZATION FOR ACCESS TO INFORMATION: Borrowers acknowledge and agree that
the verification or reverification of any information, whether contained in the
Borrowers' loan application or in any other manner supplied by the Borrowers to
the Lender in connection therewith, may be made at any time by the Lender, its
agents, successors, or assigns, either directly or through a credit reporting
agency, from any source whether named in the Borrowers' loan application or
otherwise provided to the Lender by the Borrowers.
BORROWERS' PRIVACY DISCLOSURE: Your privacy is important to us. We want you to
know that we hold your financial and other personal information in strict
confidence. Since 1972, Farm Credit Administration regulations have forbidden
the directors and employees of Farm Credit institutions from disclosing personal
borrower information to others without your consent. We do not sell or trade our

information to a credit bureau or other consumer reporting agency.
- We can provide information in certain types of legal or law enforcement
proceedings.
- FCA examiners may review loan files during regular examinations of our
association.
- If one of our employees applies to become a licensed real estate
appraiser, we may give copies of real estate appraisal reports to the State
agency that licenses appraisers when required. We will first remove as much
personal information from the appraisal report as possible.
As a member/owner of this institution, your privacy and the security of
your personal information are vital to our continued ability to serve your
ongoing credit needs.
UNAUTHORIZED DEPOSITIONS AND FALSE STATEMENTS: Borrowers understand that it is a
federal crime punishable by fine, imprisonment, or both to knowingly make any
false statements in the Borrowers' loan application as applicable under the
provisions of Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code, Section 1014. Borrowers also
understand that any unauthorized disposition of Collateral or the making of any
false statement or report to the Lender in connection with a loan could result
in civil and criminal consequences to the Borrowers as applicable under the
provisions of Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code, Sections 658 and 1014.

assigns, and all persons and parties who become bound as a Borrower under this
Agreement
FEES CHARGED: Lender has authority to charge and Borrowers agree to pay any

to the loan. If Borrowers do not immediately repay such advance, interest at the

express authority in this Promissory Note/Loan Agreement to charge a specific

EFFECTIVE INTEREST RATE AND DISCLOSURE
DATE: November 15, 2004

________________________________________________________________________________
The disclosures on this page are made pursuant to Section 4.13(a) of the Farm
Credit Act of 1971, as amended, 12 U.S.C. 2199, and are not part of the
contractual agreement between the Borrowers and the Lender. This Loan is not
subject to the Truth-in-Lending (TIL), 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq., and the effective
rate of interest described herein is not to be construed as the equivalent of
the annual percentage rate which would be disclosed on a loan subject to TIL.
Stated Interest Rate Effective Interest Rate
The rate of interest currently The stated rate of interest
applicable to the Loan adjusted to take into account
loan origination charges and
any purchase of stock
5.86 % 6.41 %
------------------ ------------------
Except with respect to stock protected under Section 4.9A of the Farm Credit Act
of 1971, as amended, stock that is purchased in the Lender or the Lender's
parent association, be applicable, is at risk and can only be retired at the
discretion of the association board. Effective Interest Rate is calculated as if
stock will never be retired. If stock is retired, as is customary, the Effective
Interest Rate would be lower than the percentage stated above. It is generally
the association's practice to retire stock when a Borrower's loan balance is
paid in full or upon full payment of all of a Borrower's loans, provided the
association has an adequate capital position. At this time, the association's
capital exceeds the regulatory capital requirements.
INTEREST RATE PLAN:
(Adjustable Rate LIBOR Based) The interest rate is based on an index plus a
margin and may increase during the term of this transaction if there is an
increase in the One Month London Interbank Offered Rate ("One Month LIBOR")
and/or margin. The index is the One Month LIBOR published on the applicable date
in the Wall Street Journal. The margin is set by the Lender and can change at
successive intervals of 1 year(s) each.
In the event of default at any time during the term of the Loan, however, and at
maturity, the Loan will be subject to a higher rate of interest.
ADJUSTMENT FACTORS: The factors which the Lender takes into account in making
adjustments to the interest rate on the Loan (except fixed rate loans and
adjustments based on changes in the prime Index or LIBOR index) include cost of
funds, operating expenses, provision for loan losses, capital requirements,
capital sharing, nonearning assets and competitive elements of the financial
environment. The factors considered by the Lender may change during the term of
the Loan.
REPRESENTATIVE EXAMPLES: These examples show the effect that changes in the
stock requirement and loan origination fees would have on the effective interest
rate of a representative loan with loan level stock. A $103,000 amortized loan,
including a $3,000 or 3% stock requirement, amortized over a 5-year term with
level annual payments, a stated interest rate of 10%, and loan origination
charges of $1,000 would have an effective interest rate of 10.85%. If the loan
amount was to remain at $103,000 with a 3% stock requirement, but the loan
origination charges increase to $1,500, the effective interest rate would be
11.06%.
LOAN OPTIONS: The Lender may offer secured and unsecured short- and
intermediate-term loans including lines of credit, with maturities up to 7 years
or, in some instances, 10 years. Installments can be paid monthly, quarterly,
semi-annually, annually, or according to other irregular repayment plans as may
be agreed upon by the Borrowers and the Lender. Interest rates may be variable
at the option of the Lender, fixed for a specified period and then variable,
adjustable at specified intervals with the rate determined either at Lender's
discretion or in accordance with the prime index or LIBOR index, or fixed for
the term of the Loan. Some loan options are subject to certain conditions and
are not available to all borrowers for all purposes. In addition, loan options,
including interest rates, may vary by location and time period. The availability
of any loan option is subject to change at any time at the discretion of the
Lender. If the Lender is an ACA, Lender also offers long-term real estate
mortgage loans with maturities of 10 to 40 years secured by agricultural real
estate or rural homes. Interest rates may be fixed for the term of the loan,
variable at the option of the Lender, or adjustable at specified intervals with
the rate adjusted either at Lender's discretion or in accordance with Federal
Farm Credit Banks Funding Corporation rates or the prime index or LIBOR index.
These real estate mortgage loan options are subject to the same conditions,
limitations, and varying availability as mentioned above for the short- and
intermediate-term loans.
________________________________________________________________________________
BORROWER RIGHTS:
1. At loan closing, Borrowers shall receive copies of loan documents signed by
Borrowers. Upon request thereafter Borrowers are entitled to copies of
documents signed or delivered by Borrowers, copies of Lender's or the
Lender's parent association's charter and bylaws, as applicable, and copies
of Lender's appraisals of the collateral.
2. If the loan has an adjustable or variable interest rate, Borrowers will be
notified in writing of any change in interest rate. The notice will be
given not later than any deadline date required by regulations promulgated
by the Farm Credit Administration.
3. If Borrowers' Loan is in a differential interest rate program, Borrowers
may request that Lender review the Loan to verify that the proper interest
rate category has been assigned, and also to explain in writing to
Borrowers the basis for the interest rate charged and how the credit status
of the Borrowers may be improved to receive a lower interest rate on the
Loan.
4. If Lender places Borrowers' Loan in nonaccrual status and such action
results in an adverse action being taken against Borrowers (such as
revocation of any undisbursed loan commitment), the Lender shall notify
Borrowers in writing of such change in status and the reasons therefor. If
Borrowers were not delinquent in any payments under the Loan at the time
and Borrowers' request to have the Loan reinstated to accrual status is
denied, Borrower may obtain a review of such denial before the Lender's
credit review committee.
5. Lender may not commence foreclosure or other legal action against any
collateral securing the Loan unless at least 45 days before such
commencement Lender has provided Borrowers with a copy of Lender's
restructuring policy and forms on which Borrowers may submit a request for
restructuring. If Borrowers' request for restructuring is denied, Borrowers
may appeal the denial to Lender's credit review committee, and may also
obtain an independent appraisal of any collateral (at Borrowers' expense)
for consideration by the credit review committee.
6. If Lender acquires agricultural real estate by enforcement of Lender's
lien, when Lender elects to sell or lease the acquired property, Borrowers
shall have a right of first refusal on the property. Lender shall notify
Borrowers in writing and Borrowers may purchase or lease the property, as
appropriate, at the appraised fair market value or fair rental value, or if
the properly is sold by public offering, at the price of the highest
qualified bid.
