3.PAYMENT TERMS: 

Borrower must make all payments at the place Lender designates. The payment terms for this Note are:

Paycheck Protection Program: This Note is issued under either the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program under section 7(a)(36) of the Small Business Act (“PPP”) or the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program Second Draw Loans under Section 7(a)(37) of the Small Business Act (“PPP-SD”). This Note is subject to the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Small Business Act (“SB Act”), the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), and the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act (the “Economic Aid Act”), as each may be amended from time to time, governing the PPP or the PPP-SD, as applicable, together with any and all rules, regulations, and other guidance issued by the SBA or the U.S. Department of Treasury implementing, interpreting, or otherwise governing the PPP or the PPP-SD, as applicable (collectively with the SB Act, the CARES Act, and the Economic Aid Act, the "PPP Rules"). The term “PPP Rules” shall refer to the PPP Rules which apply to the program (either PPP or PPP-SD) under which this Note has been issued.

Maturity: This Note will mature 5 years and 0 months from the date of this Note.

Repayment Terms:

The interest rate is 1% per year.

The Borrower’s obligation to begin making monthly principal and interest payments is subject to and determined by the PPP Rules.

If Borrower submits a loan forgiveness application to Lender within 10 months after the end of the Borrower's covered period (as defined and interpreted by the PPP Rules, the "Loan Forgiveness Covered Period"), Borrower will not be obligated to make any payments of principal or interest before the date on which the SBA remits the loan forgiveness amount to Lender or notifies Lender that no loan forgiveness is allowed. Lender will then notify Borrower of remittance by SBA of the loan forgiveness amount (or notify Borrower that the SBA determined that no loan forgiveness is allowed) and the date Borrower's first payment is due. If Borrower does not submit a loan forgiveness application to Lender within 10 months after the end of the Borrower's Loan Forgiveness Covered Period, Borrower must begin paying principal and interest after that period. Interest will continue to accrue during the applicable deferment period.

The amount of principal and interest payments due hereunder shall be calculated pursuant to and in accordance with the PPP Rules. The unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued interest and charges owing in connection therewith, shall be due and payable upon maturity as set forth in this Note.

Lender will apply each installment first to pay interest accrued to the day Lender receives the payment, then to bring principal current, then to pay any late fees, and will apply any remaining balance to reduce principal.

Loan Prepayment: This Note may be prepaid, in full or in part, at any time, without penalty.

Late Charge: If payment on this Note is more than 15 days late, Lender may charge Borrower a late fee of

up to 5.0% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment.

Additional Provisions: To the extent that any provision of this Note is inconsistent with the PPP Rules, the PPP Rules shall govern, and any such inconsistent provision of the Note shall be removed, but the remainder of the Note shall continue in full force and effect. Borrower has not relied on and will not rely on any representation or statement (whether written or oral) by Lender, or any of its officers or agents regarding Borrower’s eligibility for, the benefits of, and Borrower’s choice to participate in the PPP or PPP-SD, Borrower’s ability to receive loan forgiveness under the PPP Rules, or any other requirements or benefits of the PPP, PPP- SD, or PPP Rules. Borrower hereby affirms, re-certifies, and incorporates by reference herein, any and all representations, warranties, certifications, and authorizations made by Borrower in making its application for or otherwise in connection with the PPP or PPP-SD loan evidenced by this Note.

Loan Forgiveness: Borrower may be eligible for loan forgiveness of up to the full principal amount and any accrued interest owing under this Note pursuant to the PPP Rules. Borrower hereby agrees, acknowledges, and understands that the amount of principal and accrued interest which may be forgiven shall be determined in accordance with the PPP Rules. Borrower further agrees, acknowledges, and understands that the forgiveness amount may be less than the full principal amount and any accrued interest owing under this Note if the Borrower does not fully comply with or does not meet all the requirements of loan forgiveness as set forth in the PPP Rules. Borrower shall remain responsible to Lender under this Note for any and all amounts of principal, accrued interest, fees, costs, and any other amounts which are not forgiven pursuant to the PPP Rules.
