The initial Holder shall make the Advances upon the written request of the Borrower and the approval of the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or his designee (the "Secretary "), pursuant to the Contract and the Fiscal Agency Agreement (each as hereinafter defined), which provisions shall not be deemed to vary any obligations specified in this Note; provided, however, that the total amount of Advances under this Note shall not exceed the Commitment Amount as specified on the face of this Note. The Fiscal Agent shall record the date and amount of all Advances and maintain the books and records of all such Advances. w 556 This Note shall be delivered on or prior to the Public Offering Date (as hereinafter defined) in fully registered form to Chemical Bank as Fiscal Agent (the "Fiscal Agent ") pursuant to the terms of the Series 1992 -A Fiscal Agency Agreement (the "Fiscal Agency Agreement "), dated as of , 1992 between the Fiscal Agent and the borrowers specified therein, including the Borrower. The terms and provisions of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, insofar as they affect the rights, duties and obligations of the Holder, are hereby incorporated herein and form a part of this Note. The Fiscal Agency Agreement provides for the Fiscal Agent to perform certain duties, including duties of paying agent, registrar and calculation agent for this Note. This Note may be surrendered to the Fiscal Agent for registration of transfer or exchange, as provided in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. The Fiscal Agent shall permit reasonable inspection to be made of a copy of the fiscal Agency Agreement kept on file at its corporate trust office. From the date of each Advance to the Public Offering Date, interest shall be paid quarterly on the unpaid principal balance of each Advance on the first day of February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 (each, an "Interim Payment Date "), commencing on November 1, 1992, and also shall be paid on the Public Offering Date, if any. The amount of interest payable on each Interim Payment Date will represent interest accrued during the three - month period ending immediately prior to such Interim Payment Date, or in the case of the first Interim Payment Date, the period from the date of this Note to the first Interim Payment Date. The amount of interest payable on the Public Offering Date will represent interest accrued during the period from the last Interim Payment Date to the Public Offering Date. The initial interest rate for each Advance will be set on the date of such Advance and will be equal to 20 basis points (.2%) above the Applicable LIBO Rate (as hereinafter defined) and thereafter will be adjusted monthly on the first day of each month (each, a "Reset Date ") to an interest rate equal to 20 basis points (.2B) above the Applicable LIBO Rate. "LIBO Rate" for any given Business Day means, except in the case of manifest error, the interest rate per annum published on that day in the Eastern Edition of The Wall Street Journal or any successor publication ( "WSJ "), published by Dow Jones & Company, Inc., in the section titled "Money Rates" (or any successor section) and opposite the caption "London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR) -- three months" (or any successor caption). If such rate does not appear in WSJ, for each interest period, 3 -month LIBOR shall be the interest rate, converted to a bond - equivalent yield basis, for deposits in U.S. dollars for three months which appears on Telerate Page 3750 or such other page as may replace Page 3750 on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers, Association for the purpose of displaying such rate (together, "Telerate Page 3750 ") as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the day (the "Determination 2 Date ") that is two London banking days preceding the relevant Reset Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750 on such Determination Date, such rate shall be obtained from the Reuters Screen ISDA Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date. If, in turn, such rate does not appear on the Reuters Screen ISDA Page on such Determination Date, the offered quotation from each of four reference banks (expressed as a percentage per annum) as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date for deposits in U.S. dollars to prime banks on the London interbank market for a 3 -month period, commencing on the Reset Date, shall be obtained. If at least two such quotations are provided, 3 -month LIBOR for such Reset Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations, rounded to five decimal places. If fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested, 3 -month LIBOR for that Determination Date shall be the rate for the most recent day preceding such Determination Date for which 3 -month LIBOR shall have been displayed on Telerate Page 3750. The 3 -month LIBOR for any interest period shall be converted to a bond - equivalent yield basis by multiplying such rate by the actual number of days in such interest period and dividing that number by 180. "Applicable LIBO Rate" means: (1) with respect to the initial interest rate for the first Advance hereunder, the LIBO Rate two London Banking Days before the date of such first Advance; (2) with respect to the initial interest rate for any subsequent Advance made before the first Reset Date, the interest rate borne by the first Advance; (3) with respect to the initial interest rate for any subsequent Advance made after the first Reset Date, the LIBO Rate two London Banking Days before the immediately preceding Reset Date; and (4) with respect to the subsequent interest rate at any Reset Date for any Advance, the LIBO Rate two London Banking Days before such Reset Date. In the event that the Public Offering Date is a date subsequent to December 31, 1992, interest from and after such December 31, 1992 to the Public Offering Date shall be paid on the unpaid principal balance of all Advances at a rate to be determined by the initial Holder hereof, which, based upon then prevailing market conditions and taking into account all the circumstances, will enable the Holder to sell the Interim Note at one hundred percent (100 %) of the aggregate amount of all Advances owing hereunder. Such interest rate shall be determined as of January 1, 1993 and shall be determined again on each February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 thereafter. The initial Holder shall notify the Fiscal Agent within two Business Days of the determination of the applicable interest rate. The interest rate as of the Public Offering Date (the "Public Offering Interest Rate ") shall be specified on the face of this Note and shall be that rate which the Underwriters (as hereinafter defined) determine will enable them to sell this Note M s 558 under then prevailing market conditions as of the Public Offering Date at one hundred percent (100 %) of the aggregate amount of all Advances owing hereunder (the "Principal Amount ") as specified on the face of this Note. From and after the Public Offering Date, interest at the Public Offering Interest Rate shall be paid on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each, a "Payment Date "), commencing 19 and on the Maturity Date as specified on the face of this Note. Interest payable on or before the Public Offering Date shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 -day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest after the Public Offering Date shall be calculated on the basis'o'f a 360 -day year consisting of twelve 30 -day months. The Principal Amount of this Note shall be repaid on the Maturity Date. If any Payment Date or Maturity Date is not a Business Day, then payments payable on such Payment Date or Maturity Date shall be made on the next Business Day. "Business Day" means a day on which banking institutions in New York City are not required or authorized to remain closed and on which the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the New York Stock Exchange are not closed. Payment of principal and interest shall be made in the manner and as provided in the Fiscal Agency Agreement. If a payment of principal or interest herein provided for shall not be made by the close of business on the second Business Day (as herein defined) next succeeding an Interim Payment Date or a Payment Date, as the case may be, interest shall accrue on the amount of such payment at the then applicable interest rate payable on this Note, from the relevant Interim Payment Date or Payment Date, as the case may be, until the date such Payment is made. Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed as permitting or implying that the Borrower may, without the written consent of the Holder and the Secretary, modify, extend, alter or affect in any manner whatsoever the right of the Holder to receive any and all payments of principal and interest specified in this Note.
