- Your initial full monthly payment amount will be established by calculating the amount necessary to pay off<br />
the loan in full (principal and interest) on the Maturity Date in substantially equal installments of principal and<br />
interest, based on the loan balance, term, and the initial interest rate in effect at the time of loan closing and<br />
assuming that such interest rate will remain in effect throughout the term of the loan.<br />
- Your monthly payment can increase or decrease substantially based upon changes in the interest rate. Your<br />
monthly payment amount will be established by calculating the amount necessary to pay off the loan in full<br />
(principal and interest) at the Maturity Date in substantially equal installments of principal and interest, based<br />
on the loan balance, remaining term, and the interest rate in effect during the month prior to the payment<br />
adjustment date, which occurs monthly (the "Payment Change Date"). The result of this calculation is called<br />
the "Full Monthly Payment." The new payment is based on the assumption that such interest rate will remain<br />
in effect throughout the term of the loan.<br />
<strong>Interest</strong>-<strong>Only</strong> Payment Option<br />
- Each month for the first 180 payments due, you will have the option to make an interest-only payment (i.e., a<br />
payment equal to the interest accrued on the principal balance at either the initial interest rate for the first two<br />
months or at the fully indexed rate for the next 178 months). Following the 180 th payment, this interest-only<br />
payment option will expire, and you must pay the Full Monthly Payment each month thereafter.<br />
EXAMPLE:<br />
- On a $10,000, 30 year loan with an Initial <strong>Interest</strong> <strong>Rate</strong> of 3.150% (premium of .025%), in effect on March 25,<br />
2004, the maximum amount this interest rate can rise is 16.75 percentage points to 19.90% (Lifetime <strong>Interest</strong><br />
<strong>Rate</strong> Cap). If the interest rate reached the Lifetime <strong>Interest</strong> <strong>Rate</strong> Cap in the third month of the loan, the<br />
monthly payment could rise from an initial interest-only payment of $26.25 available during the first two<br />
months to a maximum interest-only payment of $165.83 in the third month and, assuming interest-only<br />
payments were made during the first 180 months of the loan at the Lifetime <strong>Interest</strong> <strong>Rate</strong> Cap, a maximum<br />
principal and interest-only payment of $174.89 in the 181 st Month.<br />
- To see what your payment amount is, divide your mortgage amount by $10,000; then multiply the monthly<br />
payment by that amount. For example, the initial interest-only monthly payment for a mortgage amount of<br />
$200,000 would be: $200,000 divided by $10,000 = 20; 20 x $26.25 = $525.00.<br />
Payment Change Notification<br />
- You will be notified in writing at least 25 days before the payment adjustment becomes effective. This notice<br />
will contain information about your new and prior interest rates, the index values upon which the new and old<br />
interest rates were based, the new monthly payment necessary to fully amortize the loan, and the current loan<br />
balance.<br />
