Each date on which my interest rate could change is called a "Change Date." (B) The I»dat Beginning with the first Change Date, my interest rate will be based on an Index. The "Index" is the average of inter- bank offered rates for 6 month U.S. dollar-denominated deposits in the London ("Libor"), as published in The Wall Street Journal. The most recent Index figure available as of the first business day of the month immediately preceding the month in which the Change Date occurs is called the "Current Index."

However, any reduction due to my partial prepayment may be offset by an interest rate increase. 6.
