1.    PROMISE TO PAY
In return for the Loan, Borrower promises to pay to the order of Lender the amount of     $667,000 Dollars, interest on the unpaid principal balance, and all other amounts required by this Note.
2.    DEFINITIONS:
“Guarantor” means each person or entity that signs a guarantee of payment of this Note. “Loan” means the loan evidenced by this Note.
“Loan Documents” means the  PPP application related to this loan signed by Borrower, any Guarantor, or listed as owner.
“SBA” means the Small Business Administration, an Agency of the United States of America.
PPP  “Paycheck Protection Program,” to the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (SBA’s) 7(a) Loan Program. Section 1106
3.    PAYMENT TERMS:
Borrower must make all payments at the place Lender designates. The payment terms for this Note are:
Maturity: This Note will mature in 2 years from date of Note. Interest Rate:  Fixed at 1%













Repayment Terms:
Borrower will have no monthly payments for six months following the date of disbursement of the loan with the remaining 18 monthly payments being amortized over remaining balance. Interest will continue to accrue on PPP loan during this six-month deferment and life of loan.
Scheduled Payments will begin after The Act authorizes the Administrator to defer loan payments for up to one year. The Administrator determined, in consultation with the Secretary, that a six-month deferment period is appropriate in light of the modest interest rate (one percent) on PPP loans and the loan forgiveness provisions contained in the Act.
PPP Loan forgiveness:
The amount of loan forgiveness can be up to the full principal amount of the loan and any accrued interest. That is, the borrower will not be responsible for any loan payment if the borrower uses all of the loan proceeds for forgivable purposes described below and employee and compensation levels are maintained. The actual amount of loan forgiveness will depend, in part, on the total amount of payroll costs, payments of interest on mortgage obligations incurred before February 15, 2020, rent payments on leases dated before February 15, 2020, and utility payments under service agreements dated before February 15, 2020, over the eight-week period following the date of the loan. However, not more than 25 percent of the loan forgiveness amount may be attributable to non-payroll costs.
While the Act provides that borrowers are eligible for forgiveness in an amount equal to the sum of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities, the Administrator has determined that the non-payroll portion of the forgivable loan amount should be limited to effectuate the core purpose of the statute and ensure finite program resources are devoted primarily to payroll. The Administrator has determined in consultation with the Secretary that 75 percent is an appropriate percentage in light of the Act’s overarching focus on keeping workers paid and employed. Further, the Administrator and the Secretary believe that applying this threshold to loan forgiveness is consistent with the structure of the Act, which provides a loan amount 75 percent of which is equivalent to eight weeks of payroll (8 weeks / 2.5 months = 56 days / 76 days = 74 percent rounded up to 75 percent). Limiting non-payroll costs to 25 percent of the forgiveness amount will align these elements of the program, and will also help to ensure that the finite appropriations available for PPP loan forgiveness are directed toward payroll protection. SBA will issue additional guidance on loan forgiveness.
