The interest rate is fixed as specified above and will not change during the life of the Loan.

No payments are due on the Loan for six (6) months (the “Deferment Period”) from the date of first disbursement of the Loan. Interest will continue to accrue during the Deferment Period. Borrower must make principal and interest payments every month beginning in the month immediately following the end of the Deferment Period (the “Payment Commencement Date”) in an amount calculated at the interest rate specified herein and based on the amount of the unpaid principal balance hereunder as of the Payment Commencement Date and a final payment on the Maturity Date equal to all unpaid interest, principal, and fees. Payments must be made on the first calendar day of each month in the months they are due. Borrower shall also pay on the Payment Commencement Date all accrued interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from the date of first disbursement of the Loan through the Payment Commencement Date.

PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM LOAN NOTE

Lender will apply each installment payment first to pay interest accrued on the Loan to the day Lender receives the payment, then to bring principal current, then to pay any late fees, and then to any remaining balance to reduce the outstanding principal balance of this Note.

NOTICE - LOAN FORGIVENESS: Borrower may apply through Lender for forgiveness of the amount due on this Loan in an amount equal to the sum of the following costs incurred by Borrower during the 8-week period (or any other period that may hereafter be authorized by SBA) beginning on the date of Blockfirst disbursement of the Loan:

Payroll costs

Any payment of interest on a covered mortgage obligation (which shall not include any prepayment of or payment of principal on a covered mortgage obligation)

Any payment on a covered rent obligation

Any covered utility payment The amount of Loan forgiveness shall be calculated (and may be reduced) in accordance with the requirements of the Paycheck Protection Program, including the provisions of Section 1106 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (P.L. 116-136). Borrower covenants and agrees to use the Loan only for purposes authorized by the CARES Act. Not more than twenty-five (25%) percent of the amount forgiven can be attributable to non-payroll costs. The amount of each monthly Loan payment due hereunder will change to the extent SBA determines that Borrower has met the eligibility requirements under the CARES Act and pays to Lender the amount of the Loan that is entitled to forgiveness. If the entire principal amount of the Loan is forgiven and the Note indebtedness is paid to Lender by the SBA, no further principal payments under this Note shall be payable by Borrower.

LOAN PREPAYMENT/LATE CHARGE:

Notwithstanding any provision of this Note to the contrary, Borrower may prepay all or any part of the unpaid principal balance of this Note without premium or penalty at any time without notice. Borrower may prepay twenty (20%) percent or less of the unpaid principal balance at any time without notice. If Borrower prepays more than twenty (20%) percent and the Loan has been sold on the secondary market, Borrower must (a) give Lender written notice; (b) pay all accrued interest; and (c) if the prepayment is received less than twenty-one (21) days from the date Lender received the notice, pay an amount equal to twenty-one (21) days interest from the date Lender received the notice, less any interest accrued during the twenty-one (21) days and paid under (b) of this paragraph. If Borrower does not prepay within thirty (30) days from the date Lender received the notice, Borrower must give Lender a new notice.
