Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

1.                                      Interest.  Subject to Section 5(a), the principal amount hereof outstanding from time to time shall bear interest until paid in full at the Applicable Rate.

If Payee shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest under applicable law and which would apart from this provision be in excess of the highest lawful interest rate permitted under applicable law, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Loan in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to Maker or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal.  All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of the Loan so that the amount of interest on account of such obligation does not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable law.  As used in this Section, the term “applicable law” shall mean the laws of the State of Texas or the federal laws of the United States, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

 

 

3.                                      Monthly Payments.  Maker shall pay interest in arrears on the fourth (4th) day of every calendar month in the amount of all interest accrued and unpaid.

Date   of Note: April 7, 2011
    

 

PROMISE TO PAY. Legacy Housing, LTD (“Borrower”) promises to pay to Woodhaven Bank Fossil Creek, (“Lender”), or order, In lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Four Million Eight Hundred Thirty Thousand & o /100 Dollars ($4,830,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding, together with Interest on the unpaid outstanding principal balance of each advance. Interest shall be calculated from the date of each advance until repayment of each advance or maturity, whichever occurs first.

 

PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in full immediately upon Lender’s demand, If no demand is made, Borrower will pay this loan In accordance with the following payment schedule, which calculates Interest on the unpaid principal balances as described In the “INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD” paragraph using the Interest rates described in this paragraph: 9 monthly consecutive Interest payments, beginning May 7, 2011, with Interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an Interest rate of 5.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days; 74 monthly consecutive principal and interest payments of $32,069.34 each, beginning February 7, 2012, with Interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an Interest rate of 5.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days; and one principal and Interest payment of $3,835,852.95 on April 7, 2018, with Interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an Interest rate of 5.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days. This estimated final payment is based on the assumption that all payments will be made exactly as scheduled; the actual final payment will be for all principal and accrued Interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts under this Note. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid Interest; then to principal; then to any late charges; and then to any unpaid collection costs. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, Lender will not charge Interest on any undisbursed loan proceeds. No scheduled payment, whether of principal or Interest or both, will be due unless sufficient loan funds have been disbursed by the scheduled payment dale to justify the payment.

 

MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE. Under no circumstances will the interest rale on this Note exceed (except lfor any higher default rale shown below) the lesser of 18.000% per annum or the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

 

INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this 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 unless such calculation would result In a usurious rate, In which case interest shall be calculated on a per diem basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. All Interest payable under this Note Is computed using this method. This calculation method results in a higher effective Interest rate than the numeric Interest rates stated in this Note.

 

PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the dale of the loan and will not be subject 10 refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by lav1.

Early payments \Viii not, unless agreed to by Lender In writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation lo continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrower’s making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked “paid in full”, ‘Without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it \Without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount 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 ls tendered with other conditions or /imitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Woodhaven Bank Fossil Creek,; A Branch of Woodhaven National Bank; 6301 N Beach St.; Fort Worth, TX 76137.

 

LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 15 days or more late. Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment.

 

POST MATURITY RATE. The Post Maturity Rate on this Note is the lesser of (A) the maximum rate allowed by law or (B) 18.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days. Borrower will pay interest on all sums due after final maturity, whether by acceleration or othe1Wlse, al that rate.
