INTEREST RATE.
Interest shall accrue on the unpaid
principal balance of this Note from the date hereof at the LIBOR
Market Index Rate plus 4.0%, as that rate may change from day to
day in accordance with changes in the LIBOR Market Index Rate
(“Interest Rate”). “LIBOR Market Index
Rate”, for any day, means the rate for 1 month U.S. dollar
deposits as reported on Telerate Successor Page 3750 as of 11:00
a.m., London time, on such day, or if such day is not a London
business day, then the immediately preceding London business day
(or if not so reported, then as determined by Bank from another
recognized source or interbank quotation).
DEFAULT RATE.
In addition to all other rights
contained in this Note, if a Default (as defined herein) occurs and
as long as a Default continues, all outstanding Obligations, other
than Obligations under any swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C.
§ 101, as in effect from time to time) between Borrower and
Bank or its affiliates, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate
plus 3% (“Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall also
apply from acceleration until the Obligations or any judgment
thereon is paid in full.
INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION
(ACTUAL/360). Interest
and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
for the actual number of days in the applicable period
(“Actual/360 Computation”). The Actual/360 Computation
determines the annual effective interest yield by taking the stated
(nominal) rate for a year’s period and then dividing said
rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for
each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360
Computation produces an annualized effective rate exceeding the
nominal rate.
REPAYMENT TERMS.
This Note shall be due and payable
as follows:
1) by periodic payments of principal
and accrued interest (“Installments”) due upon the sale
of each “Lot” (as defined in the Forbearance
Agreement), with each such Installment being an amount equal to the
sum of (a) the amount advanced by Bank for all of the Lots in
the particular development where the Lot being sold is located,
allocated to each Lot on a pro rata basis, plus all accrued and
unpaid interest on the Original Note as of the date hereof
allocated to each Lot in the same manner (as detailed in
Schedule 1 attached hereto) plus (b ) all
accrued but unpaid interest due for each Lot from the date hereof
to the closing of the sale of that respective Lot; and
2
2) a final payment of all principal
and accrued interest shall be due and payable on January 15,
2010.
Borrower may prepay this Note in
whole or in part at any time without penalty or premium.
APPLICATION OF
PAYMENTS. Monies received
by Bank from the sale of Lots shall be applied as set forth in the
Forbearance Agreement. Monies received by Bank from any other
source for application toward payment of the Obligations shall be
applied to accrued interest and then to principal. If a Default
occurs, monies may be applied to the Obligations in any manner or
order deemed appropriate by Bank.
If any payment received by Bank
under this Note or other Loan Documents is rescinded, avoided or
for any reason returned by Bank because of any adverse claim or
threatened action, the returned payment shall remain payable as an
obligation of all persons liable under this Note or other Loan
Documents as though such payment had not been made.
