Usury Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (a) all agreements and communications between Borrower (and any Other Borrower) and Lender are hereby and shall automatically be limited so that, after taking into account all amounts deemed interest, the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lender shall never exceed the maximum lawful rate or amount, (b) in calculating whether any interest exceeds the lawful maximum, all such interest shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread over the full amount and term of all principal indebtedness of Borrowers to Lender, and (c) if through any contingency or event, Lender receives or is deemed to receive interest in excess of the lawful maximum, any such excess shall be deemed to have been applied toward payment of the principal of any and all then outstanding indebtedness of Borrowers to Lender, or if there is no such indebtedness, shall immediately be returned to Borrowers.

Usury Laws. It is the intention of the Borrowers and the holder(s) of this Note to conform strictly to all applicable usury laws now or hereafter in force, and any interest payable under this Note shall be subject to reduction to the amount not in excess of the maximum legal amount allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the holder hereof resulting from an Event of Default, voluntary prepayment by the Borrowers or otherwise, then earned interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the holders hereof either be rebated to the Borrowers or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess shall be rebated to the Borrowers. The aggregate of all interest (whether designated as interest, service charges, points or otherwise) contracted for, chargeable, or receivable under this Note shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum legal rate upon the unpaid principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to the Borrowers or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been repaid, then such excess shall be rebated to the Borrowers.

Usury Laws. This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Debt at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Debt at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Security Instrument and the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding.

Usury Laws. This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition, and it is the expressed intent of the parties, that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such rate of interest shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note.

Usury Laws. The parties intend to contract in strict compliance with the usury Laws of the State of California and, to the extent applicable, the U.S. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operative Documents, LESSEE will not be obligated to pay Default Interest or other interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious interest rate, as in effect from time to time, which may by applicable Law be charged, contracted for, reserved, received or collected by LESSOR in connection with the Operative Documents. During any period of time in which the then-applicable highest lawful rate is lower than the Default Interest rate, Default Interest will accrue and be payable at such highest lawful rate; however, if at later times such highest lawful rate is greater than the Default Interest rate, then LESSEE will pay Default Interest at the highest lawful rate until the Default Interest which is paid by LESSEE equals the amount of interest that would have been payable in accordance with the interest rate set forth in Article 5.5.

Usury Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document: (a) It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply strictly with the applicable Texas law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the Debt, or applicable United States federal law to the extent that such law permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under Texas law. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received in respect of the Debt, including by reason of the acceleration of the maturity or the prepayment thereof, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be automatically canceled, ab initio, and all amounts in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of the Debt (or, if the Debt has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable laws, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder; provided, however, if the Notes have been paid in full before the end of the stated term hereof, then Borrower and Lender agree that Lender shall, with reasonable promptness after Lender discovers or is advised by Borrower that interest was received in an amount in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, either credit such excess interest against the Debt then owing by Borrower to Lender and/or refund such excess interest to Borrower. Borrower hereby agrees that as a condition precedent to any claim seeking usury penalties against Lender, Borrower will provide written notice to Lender, advising Lender in reasonable detail of the nature and amount of the violation, and Lender shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice in which to correct such usury violation, if any, by either refunding such excess interest to Borrower or crediting such excess interest against the Debt then owing by Borrower to Lender.

Usury Laws. This Mortgage and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall the Mortgagor be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which the Mortgagor is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Mortgage or the Note, the Mortgagor is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note.

Usury Laws. Regardless of any provisions contained in this Note, the Payee shall never be deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest on the Note, any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate, and, in the event Payee ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and, if the principal balance of this Note is paid in full, then any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Maker. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, Maker and Payee shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment (other than payments which are expressly designated as interest payments hereunder) as an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (c) spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Note so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term.
