The amount to be prepaid shall be multiplied by the "prepayment fee rate." The "prepayment fee rate" shall be the greater of (a) one percent (1%) or (b) the product, expressed as a percentage, obtained by multiplying the excess, if any, of the Contract Rate over the market yield of U.S. Treasury issues which have the closest maturity (month and year) to the Maturity Date, as quoted in The Wall Street Journal published on the date for prepayment as set forth is Maker's notice of its intention to prepay, by the remaining term of the loan, expressed as a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of days remaining from and including the scheduled prepayment date to and including the Maturity Date and the denominator of which is 365. Should more than on U.S. Treasury issue be quoted as maturing on the date closest to the Maturity Date, then the issue having the market yield which differs least from the Contract Rate will be used in the calculations.
