"Borrower" means each person signing at the end of this Note.

"Secretary" or Lender means the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development

or his or her authorized representatives.

2.BORROWER'S PROMISE TO PAY; INTEREST

In return for amounts to be advanced by Lender to or for the benefit

of Borrower under the terms of a Home Equity Conversion Loan Agreement

dated , 19 ("Loan Agreement"), Borrower

promises to pay to the order of Lender a principal amount equal to the sum

of all Loan Advances made by Lender under the Loan Agreement with interest.

Interest will be charged on unpaid principal at the rate of percent (

%) per year until the full amount of principal has been paid. The interest

rate may change in accordance with Paragraph 5 of this Note. Accrued

interest shall be added to the principal balance as a Loan Advance at the

end of each month.

3.PROMISE TO PAY SECURED

Borrower's promise to pay is secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or

similar security instrument that is dated the same date as this Note and

called the "Security Instrument" or the "Second Security Instrument." The

Security Instrument protects the Lender from losses which might result if

Borrower defaults under this Note. Borrower also executed a First Security

Instrument and First Note when the Second Security Instrument and this Note

were executed.

4.MANNER OF PAYMENT

(A)Time

Borrower shall pay all outstanding principal and accrued

interest to Lender upon receipt of a notice by Lender requiring immediate

payment in full, as provided in Paragraph 7 of this Note.

(B)Place

Payment shall be made at the Office of the Housing-FHA

Comptroller, Director of Mortgage Insurance Accounting and Servicing,

451 7th Street, S.W., Washington, DC 20410, or any such other place as

Lender may designate in writing by notice to Borrower.

(C)Limitation of Liability

Borrower shall have no personal liability for payment of the

debt. Lender shall enforce the debt only through sale of the Property

covered by the Security Instrument ("Property").

5.INTEREST RATE CHANGES /1

(A)Change Date

The interest rate may change on the first day of ,

19 , and on that day of each succeeding year. "Change Date" means each

date on which the interest rate could change.

(B)The Index

Beginning with the first Change Date, the interest rate will be

based on an Index. "Index" means the weekly average yield on United

States Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one

year, as made available by the Federal Reserve Board. "Current Index"

means the most recent Index figure available 30 days before the Change

Date. If the Index (as defined above) is no longer available, Lender

will use as a new Index any index prescribed by the Secretary. Lender

will give Borrower notice of the new Index.

(C)Calculation of Interest Rate Changes

Before each Change Date, Lender will calculate a new interest

rate by adding a margin of percentage points ( %) to the

current Index. /2 Subject to the limits stated in Paragraph 5(D) of

this Note, this amount will be the new interest rate until the next

Change Date.

(D)Limits on Interest Rate Changes

The interest rate will never increase or decrease by more than

two percentage points (2.0%) on any single Change Date. The interest

rate will never be more than five percentage points (5.0%) higher or

lower than the initial interest rate stated in Paragraph 2 of this

Note.

(E)Notice of Changes

Lender will give notice to Borrower of any change in the

interest rate. The notice must be given at least 25 days before the new

interest rate takes effect, and must set forth (i) the date of the

notice, (ii) the Change Date, (iii) the old interest rate, (iv) the

new interest rate, (v) the Current Index and the date it was

published, (vi) the method of calculating the adjusted interest rate,

and (vii) any other information which may be required by law from time

to time.

(F)Effective Date of Changes

A new interest rate calculated in accordance with paragraphs

5(C) and 5(D) of this Note will become effective on the Change Date, unless

the Change Date occurs less than 25 days after Lender has given the

required notice. If the interest rate calculated in accordance with

Paragraphs 5(C) and 5(D) of this Note decreased, but Lender failed to

give timely notice of the decrease and applied a higher rate than the

rate which should have been stated in a timely notice, then Lender

shall recalculate the principal balance owed under this Note so it

does not reflect any excessive interest.

6.BORROWER'S RIGHT TO PREPAY

A Borrower receiving monthly payments under the Loan Agreement has the

right to pay the debt evidenced by this Note, in whole or in part, without

charge or penalty on the first day of any month. Otherwise, a Borrower has

the right to pay the debt evidenced by this Note, in whole or in part,

without charge or penalty after giving Lender two weeks notice. Any amount

of debt prepaid will first be applied to reduce the principal balance of

this Note and then to reduce the principal balance of the First Note.

All prepayments of the principal balance shall be applied by Lender as

follows:

First, to that portion of the principal balance representing

aggregate payments for mortgage insurance premiums;

Second, to that portion of the principal balance representing

aggregate payments for servicing fees;

Third, to that portion of the principal balance representing

accrued interest due under the Note; and

Fourth, to the remaining portion of the principal balance. A

Borrower may specify whether a prepayment is to be credited to

that portion of the principal balance representing monthly

payments or the line of credit. If Borrower does not designate

which portion of the principal balance is to be prepaid, Lender

shall apply any partial prepayments to an existing line of credit

or create a new line of credit.

7.IMMEDIATE PAYMENT IN FULL

(A)Death or Sale

Lender may require immediate payment in full of all outstanding

principal and accrued interest if:

(i) A Borrower dies and the Property is not the principal

residence of at least one surviving Borrower, or

(ii) A Borrower conveys all of his or her title to the Property

and no other Borrower retains title to the Property in fee simple

or on a leasehold interest as set forth in 24 CFR 206.45(a).

(B)Other Grounds

Lender may require immediate payment in full of all outstanding

principal and accrued interest, upon approval by an authorized

representative of the Secretary, if:

(i) The Property ceases to be the principal residence of a

Borrower for reasons other than death and the Property is not the

principal residence of at least one other Borrower;

(ii) For a period of longer than 12 consecutive months, a

Borrower fails to physically occupy the Property because of

physical or mental illness and the Property is not the principal

residence of at least one other Borrower; or

(iii) An obligation of the Borrower under the Security

Instrument is not performed.

(C)Payment of Costs and Expenses

If Lender has required immediate payment in full as described

above, the debt enforced through sale of the Property may include

costs and expenses, including reasonable and customary attorney's

fees, associated with enforcement of this Note. Such fees and costs

shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the same rate as

the principal of this Note.

(D)Trusts

Conveyance of a Borrower's interest in the Property to a trust

which meets the requirements of the Secretary, or conveyance of a

trust's interests in the Property to a Borrower, shall not be

considered a conveyance for purposes of this Paragraph. A trust shall

not be considered an occupant or be considered as having a principal

residence for purposes of this Paragraph.

8.WAIVERS

Borrower waives the rights of presentment and notice of dishonor.

"Presentment" means the right to require Lender to demand payment of

amounts due. "Notice of dishonor" means the right to require Lender to

give notice to other persons that amounts due have not been paid.

9.GIVING OF NOTICES

Unless applicable law requires a different method, any notice that

must be given to Borrower under this Note will be given by delivering it or

by mailing it by first class mail to Borrower at the property address above

or at a different address if Borrower has given the Secretary a notice of

Borrower's different address.

Any notice that must be given to the Secretary under this Note will be

given by first class mail to the HUD Field Office with jurisdiction over

the Property or any other address designated by the Secretary.

10.OBLIGATIONS OF PERSONS UNDER THIS NOTE

If more than one person signs this Note, each person is fully

obligated to keep all of the promises made in this Note. Lender may

enforce its rights under this Note only through sale of the Property.

11.RELATIONSHIP TO FIRST NOTE

(A)Second Note

Because Borrower will be required to repay amounts which the

Secretary may make to or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to Section

255(i)(1)(A) of the National Housing Act and the Loan Agreement, the

Secretary has required Borrower to grant this Note to the Secretary.

(B)Relationship of Secretary Payments to First Note

Payments made by the Secretary shall be included in the debt due

under this Note unless:

(i)The First Note is assigned to the Secretary; or

(ii) The Secretary accepts reimbursements by the Lender for all

payments made by the Secretary.

If the circumstances described in (i) or (ii) occur, then all payments

by the Secretary, including interest on the payments, shall be

included in the debt under the First Note.

(C)Notice of Interest Rate Adjustments

Borrower agrees that as long as the holder of the First Note

continues to make Loan Advances, any notice of interest rate

adjustment given to Borrower under Paragraph 5(E) of the First Note

shall also be considered to be notice to Borrower under Paragraph 5(E)

of this Note, so that the same interest rate shall apply for the First

Note and this Note.

12.SHARED APPRECIATION /3

If Borrower has executed a Shared Appreciation Allonge, the covenants

of the Allonge shall be incorporated into and supplement the covenants of

this Note as if the Allonge were a part of this Note.

contained in this Note. /4, /5
