6. Interest. Customer agrees to pay interest to Lender on the unpaid principal balance outstanding from time to time under this Agreement in accordance with any note evidencing a Loan.
The interest rate listed in any note evidencing a Revolving Loan may or may not be the lowest rate charged by Lender. Any change in the interest rate resulting from a change in the interest rate listed in any note evidencing a Revolving Loan shall become effective without notice to Customer as of the day on which such change in the interest rate listed in any note evidencing a Revolving Loan is adopted by Lender. A change in the interest rate will apply both to the outstanding principal balance and to new Revolving Loans.
Unpaid principal and interest bear interest after maturity (whether by acceleration or lapse of time) until paid at the rate which would otherwise be applicable plus 3.00 percentage points. Interest is computed on the basis of the actual number of days the principal balance is unpaid based upon a year of 360 days.

In addition, Customer shall immediately pay any amount by which the Revolving Loans exceed the Revolving Credit Limit established under Section 1, and any prior unpaid payments.

If payments are not automatically charged to Customer's account, payments must be made to the Lender at its address shown below and are not credited until received in Lender's office. Lender is authorized to make book entries evidencing Revolving Loans and payments under this Agreement and the aggregate unpaid amount of all Revolving Loans as evidenced by those entries is presumptive evidence that those amounts are outstanding and unpaid to Lender.
