will be for all principal and all accrued Interest not yet paid. Payments
Include principal and interest. Unless otherwise agreed or required by
applicable law, payments will be applied first to any unpaid collection costs:
then to any accrued unpaid Interest: then to principal and then to any late
charges. The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a 365/360 basis;
that is by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360
days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual
number of days the principal balance is outstanding unless such calculation
would result in a usurious rate in which case Interest shall be calculated on a
per diem basis of a year of 365 or 366 days as the case may be. Borrower will
pay Lender at Xxxxxx’s address shown above or lit such other place as Lender may
designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The
interest rate on this Note Is subject to change from time to time based on
changes in an index which is Xxxxxx’s Prime Rate (the “Index”), This is the rate
Lender charges, or would charge, on 90-day unsecured loans to the most
creditworthy corporate customers. This rate may or may not be the lowest rate
available from Lender at any given time. Lender will tell Borrower the current
Index rate upon Borrower’s request, the interest rate change will not occur more
often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on
other rates as well. The interest rate to be applied prior to maturity to the
unpaid principal balance during this Note will be at a rate of 1.000 percentage
point over the Index. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on
this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. For purposes
of this Note, the “maximum rate allowed by applicable law· means the greater of
(A) the maximum rate of interest permitted under federal or other law applicable
to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, or (B) the “Weekly Ceiling” as
referred to In Sections 303.002 and 303.003 of the Texas Finance Code. Whenever
Increases occur in the interest rate, Lender at its option, may do one or more
of the following: (A) increase Borrower’s payments to ensure Borrower’s loan
will payoff by its original final maturity date, (B) Increase Borrower’s
payments to cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower’s
payments and (D) continue Borrower’s payments at the same amount and increase

costs and expenses for which Borrower is responsible under this Note or any
other agreement with Lender pertaining to this loan, and in no event will
Borrower ever be required to pay any unearned interest. Early payments will not,
unless agreed to by Xxxxxx in writing, relieve Xxxxxxxx of Xxxxxxxx’s obligation
to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments
will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Xxxxxxxx’s making fewer
payments. Xxxxxxxx agrees not to send Lender payments marked “paid in full”
“without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment,
Xxxxxx may accept it without losing any of Xxxxxx’s rights under this Note, and
