Each Payment shall be in the amount provided below, and due and payable on the same day of the month as the Initial Payment set forth above in each succeeding payment period (each, a "Payment Date" and the final such scheduled Payment Date, the "Maturity Date") during Equipment Note Term. All interest hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days comprised of 12 months of 30 days each.
