PROMISSORY NOTE (INSTALLMENT LOAN) AND LOAN AGREEMENT
For value received, I/we, the undersigned Maker(s), jointly and severally promise to pay in U.S.
dollars to Farm Credit Services of America, PCA, Lender, at its office in Omaha, Nebraska,
or order, the principal sum of SEVEN HUNDRED SIXTY THOUSAND, $760,000.00, (Maximum
Principal Balance), plus interest on the principal remaining from time to time unpaid.
MAXIMUM PRINCIPAL BALANCE/ADDITIONAL ADVANCES OPTION (THIS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A COMMITMENT BY
XXXXXX TO MAKE ANY TYPE OF ADVANCE): Lender, at its option, may advance sums to Maker(s) up to the
Maximum Principal Balance until October 15, 2005 (Final Advancement Date).
Budgeted Credit: Each advance made will reduce the funds available for future advances by
the amount of the advance. Repayments of principal will NOT be available for subsequent
advances.
INTEREST RATE OPTION: Interest will accrue at the Initial Interest Rate of 7.050 percent
per annum, with interest thereafter at the rate provided in the interest rate option specified
below unless the Default Interest provision has been invoked on the loan.
Restrictions on Maximum Principal Balance/Additional Advances: The right to request and receive
funds is not assignable. Lender may determine whether Maker(s) continues to meet Xxxxxx’s credit
standards at the time of each requested advance. Lender, in its sole discretion, may decrease the
funds available for disbursement following this review. The obligation to advance funds may be
terminated prior to the Final Advancement Date or before funds available for disbursement following
this review. The obligation to advance funds may be terminated prior to the Final Advancement Date
or before the Maximum Principal Balance is reached if intervening liens have been filed on any
collateral given or pledged to secure payment of this loan since the date of closing, including the
filing of a notice of lis pendens, or any Maker or guarantor has given written notice to Lender to
terminate this provision of this Note. Xxxxxx’s termination of this provision will not alter
my/our obligation to make the payments as specified in this Note.
Protective Advances: Xxxxxx may make advances to protect the collateral for this Note: such
advances may be added to the Maximum Principal Balance stated above and will, at Xxxxxx’s option,
be immediately due and payable and bear interest at the default interest rate from the date
advanced until paid.
Variable Interest Rate: The interest rate is variable until maturity. A higher or lower
rate of interest may be established for any individual Loan Pricing Classification (ILPC)
Index for which the loan from time to time qualifies: this higher or lower rate will
thereupon apply to the outstanding principal balance of the debt evidenced hereby and will
remain in effect until a different rate of interest is established. The amount of each
subsequent payment will be increased or decreased accordingly to reflect the different rate
of interest without in any manner changing the due date of the payments. Lender may have
up to 15 days from any Index change to change the rate. There is no limitation on the
frequency or the amount of the change in the interest rate.
The amount of the change is based on the ILPC LIBOR Short-Term Index with a
3.000 percent spread.
Lender may adjust (increase or decrease) the interest rate on November 15, 2005 and
every 001 months thereafter.
REPAYMENT: I/We will repay the loan as follows:
| No. | Each Due | Amount and Type (Each Payment) | Begin Date | End Date | ||||
1
|
Annually | $760,000.00 Principal, plus interest on the unpaid principal balance | 12/01/2005 | 12/01/2005 |
The amount of the first payment may be larger or smaller than shown above depending upon the actual
number of days between loan closing and the first payment due date. The actual payment amount of
all other payments may vary according to the interest rate then in effect and the outstanding
principal balance.
Payments will be made at the location identified by Lender. Any amounts submitted by me/us will,
at Lender’s option, be applied first to the payment of default interest, then to protective
advances and fees, then to accrued interest, and finally to principal to the extent of the amount
submitted.
LATE CHARGES: Late charges may be assessed when any amount of a schedule payment is past due. Late
charges are 0.50 percent of amount past due and may be assessed after the payment due date and
every 15 days thereafter up to 60 days past the due date. Late charges may be added to your
principal balance and interest may be charged thereon.
ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS: This additional payment provision applies to any payment of principal that
exceeds the principal payment specified in the Repayment provisions of this Note. Additional
payments will not postpone, defer, or alter the amount or due date of any payments required by this
Note. The obligation to continuously make scheduled payments remains in force until this Note is
paid in full.

Additional Payments: Additional payments may be made in any amount at any time to reduce
the principal owning hereunder.
CARRY FORWARD INTEREST: Upon request, this note may also include accrued and unpaid interest from
previous indebtedness to Lender. This will be the starting balance on Xxxxxx’s books for the
interest accrual on this note and is not alone cause for the note to be considered due, past due or
in default.
DEFAULT INTEREST: If any principal, interest, or advance is past due, regardless of the length of
time, or if there is any failure to comply with any covenant, condition, or agreement contained in
this Note, in any loan agreement, or in any mortgage, trust deed, security agreement, or other
document given to secure payment of this Note, then, at the election of the holder hereof, all
principal, all accrued interest thereon, and all advances will become immediately due and payable
without presentment or demand and the whole will bear interest at the default interest rate from
the date of election until paid. Any attorney fees (to the extent allowed by law), costs, or
expenses incurred and advanced by holder to enforce collection of this Note will be added to the
principal and bear interest at the default interest rate from the date of advance until paid. At
Lender’s option, any condition of default may result in interest being charged on all principal,
all accrued interest thereof, and all advances at the default rate without declaring the loan in
default.
Variable Rate: Default interest will be assessed at a rate which is 6.00 percent per annum
higher than the ILPC Prime Rate Index. If the loan is subsequently brought current, the
ILPC may be re-evaluated and the interest rate adjusted as provide in the Interest Rate
Option provision of this Note.
ASSUMPTIONS: This Note is assumable only at the sole discretion of the holder.
WAIVERS AND OTHER PROVISIONS: The Maker(s) and any endorsers, sureties, and guarantors of this
Note hereby severally waive presentment, demand, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest,
and due diligence in enforcing the payment hereof and consent that the time of payment may be
extended from time to time by holder without notice. Each Maker hereby binds their separate
estate, existing now or hereafter acquired, for the payment of this Note and agrees that any
release of any collateral or of any person liable hereon will not operate as a release of any other
Maker, endorser, surety, or guarantor.
In consideration of the advances of any credit by XxxxXxxx, FCB to Lender in reliance upon this
Note, the Makers, sureties, and guarantors of this Note hereby severally waive any and all defenses
or right of offset which they may have, individually or collectively, against Lender and its
