PROMISE TO PAY. For value received, the undersigned Debtor, whether one or more, and jointly and severally if more than one, agrees to the terms of this Note and promises to pay to the order of the Lender named above at its place of business as indicated in this Note or such other place as may be designated in writing by Lender, the Principal Amount of this Note and any accrued and unpaid Finance Charges, together with interest on unpaid Principal Amount until Maturity at the per annum interest rates(s) stated above and according to the payment terms stated above. Depending on the box checked above, interest on this Note is calculated either on the assumption that every year has 360 days and every month has 30 days (30/360) or on the actual number of days elapsed on a basis on a 360 day year (Actual/360) or a 365 day year (Actual/365). If the Right to Cancel applies to this transaction, Lender may accrue Finance Charges during the delay period. All prepaid Finance Charges are earned when imposed and are not subject to rebate on prepayments of Note. For purposes of computing interest and determining the date principal and interest payments are received, all payments will be deemed made only when received in collected funds. Payments are applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and other charges, and then to payment of the unpaid principal balance. In this Note, “Debtor” includes any party liable under this Note, including endorsers, co-makers, guarantors and otherwise, and “Lender” includes all subsequent holders.
VARIABLE RATE. If this is a Variable Rate transaction as indicated above, the interest rate shall vary from time to time with changes (whether increases or decreases) in the Index Rate shown above. The rate on this Note will be the Index Rate plus a Margin, if any, as indicated above. Each change will become effective on the same date the Index Rate changes unless a different effective date is indicated above. If the Index Rate is Lender’s base or prime rate, it is determined by Lender in sole discretion, primarily on a basis of its cost of funds, is not necessarily the lowest rate Lender is charging its customers, and is not necessarily a published rate. In no event shall the rate be below the Minimum Rate or above the Maximum Rate shown above or change in any monthly period more than shown above. Except as otherwise stated above, no restrictions exist on changes in the Index or interest rate. The rate will not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law or the rate set forth above, whichever is less, either before or after Maturity. If the initial interest rate is a Discount Rate, it is effective only until the termination date shown for such Discount Rate. The termination date of the Discount Rate will be considered an effective date of rate change at which time the rate will be determined according to the Index and Margin described above and according to the dates specified for effective dates of rate changes.
ALL PARTIES PRINCIPALS. All Debtors shall each be regarded as a principal and each Debtor agrees that any party to this Note, with Lender’s approval and without notice to any other party, may from time to time renew this Note or consent to one or more extensions or deferrals of the Maturity Date for any term(s) or to any other modification(s), and all Debtors shall be liable in same manner as on the original note.
ADVANCES. If the Fully Advanced box is checked, then the Debtor acknowledges that the entire Principal Amount has been advanced to the Debtor or for Debtor’s account or benefit. If the Multiple Advances box is checked, then the Debtor understands that the Lender will disburse the proceeds of this Note in increments, up to the Principal Amount, but that even if the Debtor prepays, the Debtor has no right to reborrow any amounts disbursed. The balance that the Debtor owes under this Note is the aggregate of all such disbursements, less any payments of principal made on this Note. Interest will accrue on the actual amount of principal disbursed and outstanding from time to time. Any loans or advances the Lender makes to the Debtor or for the Debtor’s account or benefit are presumed to be made under the terms of this Note. The Lender may make advances under this Note at the oral or written request of the Debtor or any person designated or authorized in writing by the Debtor until the Debtor revokes such designation or authorization in writing received by the Lender, provided that the Lender has the right, but is not obligated, to require written authorization from the Debtor prior to honoring any oral request. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Lender has not made a commitment to make any advances and has sole discretion to make, or not make, each advance under this Note.
PREPAYMENT. Debtor shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the principal due under this Note at any time, subject to the following conditions: (a) all interest must be paid through the date of any prepayment; (b) if this Note provides for monthly or other periodic payments, there will be no changes in the due dates or amounts following any partial prepayments unless Lender agrees to such changes in writing; and (c) upon prepayment, in whole or in part, Lender may charge and Debtor agrees to pay a fee or premium calculated as follows (this fee/premium provision will not apply if prohibited by applicable law):

RIGHT OF OFFSET: Except as otherwise restricted by law, any indebtedness due from Lender to Debtor, including, without limitation, any deposit or credit balances due from Lender, is pledged to secure payment of this Note and any other obligation to Lender of Debtor, and may at any time while the whole or any part of such obligation(s) remains unpaid, either before or after Maturity of this Note, be set off, appropriated, held or applied toward the payment of this Note or any other obligation to Lender by any Debtor.
OTHER PROVISIONS: (1) No waiver by Lender of any payment or other right under this Note or any related agreement or documentation shall operate as a waiver of any other payment or right. All Debtors waive presentation, notice of acceleration, notice of dishonesty and protest and consent to substitutions, releases and failure to perfect as to collateral and to additions or releases of any Debtor. (2) This Note and the obligations evidenced by it are to be construed and governed by the laws of the state indicated in Lender's address shown in this Note. (3) All Debtors agree to pay costs of collection, including, as allowed by law, an attorney's fee equal to a minimum of 15% of all sums due upon default or such other maximum fee as allowed by law.

No variation, condition, modification, change or amendment to this Note or related documents shall be binding unless in writing and signed by all parties.
