1. DEFINITIONS
"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 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. 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 Second Note. Borrower also executed a First
Security Instrument and First Note when the Second Security Instrument and
Second 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 6 of this Note.
(B)Place
Payment shall be made at the Office of the Housing - FHA
Comptroller, Director of Mortgage Insurance Accounting and Servicing,
Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, S.W.,
Washington, DC 20410, or any other place designated by the Secretary
in writing by notice to the Borrower.
(C)Limitation of Liability
Borrower shall have no personal liability for payment of this
Note. Lender shall enforce the debt only through sale of the Property
covered by the Security Instrument ("Property").
5.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 first will 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.
6.IMMEDIATE PAYMENT IN FULL

principal and accrued interest if:

(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

Borrower fails to physically occupy the Property because of
physical or mental illness and the Property is not the principal

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
for enforcing this Note to the extent not prohibited by applicable
law. 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

considered a conveyance for purposes of this Paragraph. A trust shall
not be considered an occupant or be considered as having a principal

(A)Second Note
Because Borrower will be required to repay amounts which the

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

debt due under this Note unless:
(i) The First Note is assigned by its holder to the Secretary;
or
(ii) The Secretary accepts reimbursement by the holder of the
First Note for all payments made by the Secretary.
If the circumstances described in (i) or (ii) occur, then all payments

under the First Note.
