Common use of Maximum Interest Payable Clause in Contracts

Maximum Interest Payable. All agreements between the Borrower and the Lender, whether now existing or subsequently arising and whether written or oral, are limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of the Note or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged, received, paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, for any reason, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lender in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lender shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if for any reason the Lender shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal under this Note and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal under the Note, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal (including the period of any renewal or extension) so that the interest for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This paragraph shall control all agreements between the Borrower and the Lender.
