| 1. | PROMISE TO PAY: |
This Loan is being made by Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Paycheck Protection Program authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and pursuant to all regulations and guidance promulgated or provided by the SBA and other Federal agencies that are now, or may become, applicable to the Loan (the
“Program”). In return for the Loan, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender the Loan Amount listed above, interest on the unpaid principal balance, and all other amounts required by this Note.
| 2. | DEFINITIONS: |
“Loan” means the loan evidenced by this Note.
“Loan Documents” means the documents related to this loan signed by Borrower.
“SBA” means the Small Business Administration, an Agency of the United States of America.
| 3. | PAYMENT TERMS: |
Borrower must make all payments in accordance with the Lender’s payment instructions. The payment terms for this Note are:
| (1) | The unpaid principal amount of this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 1.00%, calculated on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed and payable in cash on the Maturity Date (as defined below). |
| (2) | No interest or principal will be required during the first six months after the Loan amount is disbursed, although interest will continue to accrue over this six-month deferral period. |
| (3) | After such six-month deferral period and after taking into account any loan forgiveness applicable to the Loan pursuant to the Program, as approved by SBA, any remaining principal and accrued interest will be payable in substantially equal monthly installments over the remaining 18-month term of the Loan, in the amount and according to the payment schedule provided by Lender. |
| (4) | Lender will apply each installment payment first to accrued interest and then to principal. |
| (5) | This Note will mature two (2) years from the date of this Note (“Maturity Date”), at which time all unpaid or unforgiven principal, accrued interest and any other amounts outstanding pursuant to this Note will be due and payable. |
| (6) | The Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without penalty. |
| (7) | If a payment is made consistent with Lender’s payment instructions but received after 3:00 PM EST on a business day, Lender will credit the Borrower’s payment on the next business day. |
| (8) | Automatic Payment Authorization. Borrower authorizes Lender to initiate, on each business day, ACH debit and credit entries to the deposit account designated by Borrower for Loan disbursements (“Designated Account”) for all payments due under this Note, and to debit the Designated Account for such payments on the date each payment is due and to initiate, if necessary, additional entries for any entries credited or debited in error. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent there are insufficient funds in the Designated Account to pay the required amounts when due, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender all sums remaining unpaid. This authorization supplements, and does not limit, Lender’s rights under this Note. Borrower understands that this authorization will remain in full force and effect until the Borrower notifies Lender in writing of the Borrower’s wish to revoke this authorization, in which case Borrower is still responsible for making all further payments in a timely manner. The Borrower understands that Lender needs at least five (5) days prior notice to cancel this authorization. The Borrower signing below is authorized to make this request, and Lender is entitled to rely conclusively on this authorization until this authorization is terminated by Lender or the Borrower. Borrower agrees that ACH transactions must comply with the provisions of U.S. law and agrees to be bound by the National Automated Clearing House Association Operating Rules, as in effect from time to time and to the extent applicable, in connection with all such transactions. |
| (9) | If a debit is rejected or if Borrower otherwise fails to pay the amount due, Borrower agrees that Lender may (A) terminate further automatic debits, in which case Borrower will be responsible for making all further payments directly and in a timely manner, (B) debit the Designated Account at any time and from time to time, for any amounts due until paid in full, (C) subject to any right to notice of default and right to cure required by state law (which you agree to waive to the greatest extent possible), declare the outstanding Loan immediately due and payable and (D) pursue any and all other remedies available to Lender. |
| 4. | DEFAULT: |
