All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Bank shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full period (including any renewal or extension) until payment in full of the principal so that the interest hereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law.
