Each Supplement will set forth Lender’s commitment to make that Loan to the Borrowers, the amount of the Loan(s), any special purpose of the Loan(s), the interest rate or rate options applicable to the Loan(s), the repayment terms of the Loan(s), and any other terms and conditions applicable to the specific Loan(s). Each Supplement will also be accompanied by a Note of the Borrowers setting forth the Borrowers’ obligation to make payments of interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan(s), and fees and premiums, if any, and to repay the principal balance of the Loan(s). Each Loan will be governed by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Supplement relating to that Loan, and the Note.

		
	3.2.
	Interest Rates.

		
	(a)
	The unpaid principal balance of each of the Loans outstanding from time to time shall bear interest for the period commencing on the Borrowing Date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full.

		
	(b)
	Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may, as permitted under applicable law, add any unpaid accrued interest to the principal balance of any Note. Also, upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may, as permitted under applicable law, increase the interest rate on any Note to three percent (3.0%) (the “Default Rate Margin”) above the then effective interest rate of the Note. The Default Rate Margin may also apply, at Lender’s option, to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no default. This increased rate shall never exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

		
	(c)
	Interest on each Note is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All interest payable under each Note is computed using this method.

		
	3.3.
	Payments. All payments of principal and interest on each Note and of all fees due hereunder shall be made at the office of Lender in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m., Milwaukee time, on the date due; funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder or under a Note is stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest or fee then due. Lender may charge any account of a Borrower at Lender for any payment due under any Notes (including prepayments), or any fee or other amount payable hereunder, on or after the date due.

If a payment is ten (10) days or more late, Borrowers will be charged five percent (5%) of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment or Fifty Dollars ($50.00), whichever is greater, but in any event not to exceed the amount permitted by applicable law.
Borrowers will pay a fee to Lender of $20.00 if a Borrower makes a payment on any Loan and the check or preauthorized charge with which a Borrower pays is later dishonored.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Note, unless required by applicable law, and prior to any default being declared, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to escrow; then to any late charges; and then to any unpaid collection costs.
		
	3.4.
	Prepayments. 

		
	(a)
	Prepayments; Minimum Finance Charge. Borrowers agree that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of each Loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. In any event, even upon full prepayment of this Note, Borrowers understand that Lender is entitled to a minimum finance charge of $95.00. Other than Borrowers’ obligations to pay any minimum finance charge, Borrowers may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrowers of Borrowers’ obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrowers’ making fewer payments. Borrowers agree not to send Lender payments marked “paid in full,” “without recourse,” or similar language. IF Borrowers send such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Note, and Borrowers will remain obligated to pay any further amounted owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Old National Bank, PO Box 3728, Evansville, IN 47736-3728.

Each Borrower further agrees that each such purchaser shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.5 with respect to its participation in Lender’s obligation to make Loans; provided that no such purchaser shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to that section than Lender would have been entitled to receive if no such sale had occurred.

		
	9.7.
	Titles. The titles of sections in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not limit or construe the meaning of any section.

		
	9.8.
	Severability.

	9.9.
	Parties Bound; Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon any successor of any of the parties hereto; provided that a Borrower’s rights under this Agreement are not delegatable or assignable. Any purported delegation or assignment by a Borrower of its respective rights and obligations hereunder is void. Each Borrower expressly acknowledges that Lender may assign its interests under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Affiliate of Lender after the Closing Date and agree that upon such assignment, as used herein, the term “Lender” shall refer to such Affiliate. No delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, documents or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.
