Article 5 – PREPAYMENT

 

Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Article 5, no voluntary prepayments, whether in whole or in part, of the Loan or any other amount at any time due and owing under this Note can be made by Borrower or any other Person without the express written consent of Lender.

 

(a)            Voluntary Prepayment.  Borrower shall have no right to make, and Lender shall have no obligation to accept, any voluntary prepayment, whether in whole or in part, of any other amount under this Note at any time.

 

(b)           Involuntary Prepayment Involuntary Prepayment.  In the event of any involuntary prepayment of any amount under this Note, whether in whole or in part, in connection with or following Lender's acceleration of this Note or otherwise, and whether the Mortgage is satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of sale or judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means, including, without limitation, repayment of this Note by Borrower or any other person pursuant to any statutory or common law right of redemption, Borrower shall, in addition to any portion of the principal balance prepaid (together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and, in the event the prepayment is made on a date other than a Scheduled Payment Date, a sum equal to the amount of interest which would have accrued under this Note on the amount of such prepayment if such prepayment had occurred on the next Scheduled Payment Date), pay to Lender a prepayment premium in an amount equal to Yield Maintenance together with, an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the portion of the Loan being prepaid.

As used herein, “Yield Maintenance” means a prepayment premium in an amount equal to the greater of equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the portion of the amount being prepaid, and (ii) the present value as of the Prepayment Calculation Date of a series of monthly payments over the remaining term of this Note through and including the Optional Prepayment Date each equal to the amount of interest which would be due on the portion being prepaid assuming a per annum interest rate equal to the excess of the Note Rate over the Reinvestment Yield, and discounted at the Reinvestment Yield. As used herein, “Reinvestment Yield” means the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields, as reported in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15-Selected Interest Rates under the heading “U.S. government securities” and the sub-heading “Treasury constant maturities” for the week ending prior to the Prepayment Calculation Date, of the U.S. Treasury constant maturities with maturity dates (one longer and one equal to or shorter) most nearly approximating the Optional Prepayment Date, and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Lender shall select a comparable publication to determine the Reinvestment Yield. The “Prepayment Calculation Date shall mean, as applicable, the date on which (i) Lender applies any prepayment to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, (ii) Lender accelerates the Loan, in the case of a prepayment resulting from acceleration, or (iii) Lender applies funds held under any Reserve Account, in the case of a prepayment resulting from such an application (other than in connection with acceleration of the Loan).

 

(c)           Insurance Proceeds and Awards; Excess Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, and provided no Default exists, Borrower shall not be required to pay any prepayment premium in connection with any prepayment to the Mortgagee by the Lender occurring solely as a result of (i) the application of insurance proceeds or awards pursuant to the terms of the loan documents between the Lender and the Mortgagee, or (ii) the application of any interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law to the reduction of the Loan.

 

Article 6 – USURY SAVINGS

 

This Note is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and as provided for herein, under the laws of such state or states whose laws are held by any court of competent jurisdiction to govern the interest rate provisions (such rate, the “Maximum Legal Rate”). If, by the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Note Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

Article 7 – LATE PAYMENT CHARGE

 

If any principal or interest payment is not paid by Borrower before the tenth (10th) day after the date the same is due (or such greater period, if any, required by applicable law), Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of four percent (4%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment, provided however, Borrower shall not be required to pay Lender a late charge in connection with the final payment under the loan. Any such amount shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 

Article 8 – GOVERNING LAW

 

This Note shall in all respects be governed, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and any applicable federal laws of Canada.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has duly executed this Note as of the day and year first above written.
