1. Loan Details
By this contract, the party acknowledged as "The Lender" presents their full and considered commitment to furnish the party recognized as "The Borrower" with a monetary loan.

2. Interest Rate
As per our contract, interest shall be accrued on the loan that you have taken. The rate at which this interest will accumulate is 8% every year.
