1. Principal Amount
The total principal amount of this Note is $500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand Dollars).

The interest rate will be adjusted annually on the anniversary date of this Note, based on the then-current prime rate.
In the event the prime rate decreases, the Lender has the discretion to adjust the interest rate accordingly, but the interest rate will never fall below 4.5% per annum.

4. Late Payments
If any payment is not received within 10 days of its due date, the Borrower will incur a late fee of $150.00. Additionally, any late payment will bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum above the regular interest rate, compounded monthly, from the date due until the date payment is received.
5. Collateral
This Note is secured by the Borrower’s property located at 123 Maple Street, Pleasantville, CA 90210. In the event of default, the Lender shall have a lien on the property and may take action to foreclose the lien to satisfy the outstanding debt under this Note.
