NOTE
(FIXED RATE)
NOVEMBER 7, 2008 CAMP HILL PENNSYLVANIA
[Date] [City] [State]
1. BORROWER'S PROMISE TO PAY
In return for a loan that I have received, I promise to pay U.S. $10,000.00 (this amount is called
"principal"), plus interest, to the order of the Lender. The Lender is Owen E. Meals, Jr. I understand that
the Lender may transfer this Note. The Lender or anyone who takes this Note by transfer and who is
entitled to receive payments under this Note is called the "Note Holder".
2. INTEREST
Interest will be charged on unpaid principal until the full amount of principal has been paid. I will
pay interest at a yearly rate of SIX PERCENT (6%).
The interest rate required by this Section 2 is the rate I will pay after any default described in
Section 6(B) of this Note.
3. PAYMENTS
(A) Time and Place of Payments
I will pay principal and interest by making payments every month.
I will make my monthly payments of principal and interest on the first day of each month
beginning on November 1. 2009. 1 will make these payments every month until I have paid all of the
principal and interest and any other charges described below that I may owe under this Note. My monthly
payments will be applied to principal and interest until October 31, 2011. If on October 31, 2011 1 still owe
an amount under this Note, 1 will pay those amounts in full on that date, which is called the "maturity date".
I will make my monthly payments at: EA VJ j S?e,1
Ca rhs 1-- W 1'1 O l3
Or, at a different place if required by the Note Holder.
(B) Amount of Monthly Payments
My monthly payments of principal and interest will be $443.21.
4. BORROWER'S RIGHT TO PREPAY
I have the right to make payments of principal at any time before they are due. A payment of
principal only is known as a "prepayment". When I make a prepayment, I will tell the Note Holder in
writing that I am doing so.
I will make a full prepayment or partial prepayments without paying any prepayment charge. The
Note Holder will use all of my prepayments to reduce the amount of principal that I owe under this Note. If
I make a partial prepayment, there will be no changes in the due date or in the amount of my monthly
payment unless the Note Holder agrees in writing to those changes.
5. LOAN CHARGES
If a law, which applies to this loan and which sets maximum loan charges, is finally interpreted so
that the interest or other loan charges collected or to be collected in connection with this loan exceed the
permitted limits, then: (i.) any such loan charge shall be reduce by the amount necessary to reduce the
charge to the permitted limit; and, (ii.) any sums already collected from me which exceeded permitted limits
will be refunded to me. The Note Holder may choose to make this refund by reducing the principal I owe
under this Note or by making a direct payment to me. If a refund reduces principal, the reduction will be
treated as a partial prepayment.
6. BORROWER'S FAILURE TO PAY AS REQUIRED
(A) No Waiver by Note Holder
Even if, at a time when I am in default, the Note Holder does not require me to pay immediately in
full as described above, the Note Holder will still have the right to do so if I am in default at a later time.
(B) Payment of Note Holder's Costs and Expenses
If the Note Holder has required me to pay immediately in full as described above, the Note Holder
will have the right to be paid back by me for all of its costs and expenses in enforcing this Note to the extent
not prohibited by applicable law. Those expenses include, for example, reasonable attorney's fees.
7. GIVING OF NOTICES
Unless applicable law requires a different method, any notice that must be given to me under this
Note will be given by delivering it or by mailing it by first class mail to me at the Property Address above
or at a different address if I give the Note Holder a notice of my different address.
Any notice that must be given to the Note Holder under this Note will be given by mailing it by
first class mail to the Note Holder at the address stated in Section 3(A) above or at a different address if I
am given a notice of that different address.
8. OBLIGATIONS OF PERSONS UNDER THIS NOTE
If more than one persons signs this Note, each person is fully and personally obligated to keep all
of the promises made in this Note, including the promise to pay the full amount owed. Any person who is a
guarantor, surety or endorser of this Note is also obligated to do these things. Any person who takes over
these obligations, including the obligations of a guarantor, surety or endorser of this Note, is also obligated
to keep all of the promises made in this Note. The Note Holder may enforce its rights under this Note
against each person individually or against all of us together. This means that any one of us may be
required to pay all of the amounts owed under this Note.
9. WAIVERS
I and any person who has obligations under this Note waive the rights of presentment and notice of
dishonor. "Presentment" means the right to require the Note Holder to demand payment of amounts due.
"Notice of dishonor" means the right to require the Note Holder to give notice to other persons that amounts
due have not been paid.
10. UNIFORM SECURED NOTE
This Note is a uniform instrument with limited variations in some jurisdictions. In addition to the
protections given to the Note Holder under this Note, a Mortgage, Deed of Trust or Security Deed (the
"Security Instrument"), dated the same date as this Note, protects the Note Holder from possible losses
which might result if I do not keep the promises which I make in this Note. That Security Instrument
described how and under what conditions I may be required to make immediate payment in full of all
amounts I owe under this Note. Some of those conditions are described as follows:
Transfer of the Property or a Beneficial Interest in Borrower. If all or any part of the
Property or any interest in it is sold or transferred (or if a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold or
transferred and Borrower is not a natural person) without Lender's prior written consent, Lender
may, at its option, require immediate payment in full of all sums secured by this Security
Instrument. However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender is exercise is prohibited by
federal law as of the date of this Security Instrument.
If Lender exercises this option, Lender shall give Borrower notice of acceleration. The
notice shall provide a period of not less than thirty (30) days from the date of the notice is
delivered or mailed within which Borrower must pay all sums secured by this Security Instrument.
If Borrower fails to pay these sums prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any
remedies permitted by this Security Instrument without further notice or demand on Borrower.
1 1. CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT
BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS ANY
ATTORNEY OR THE PROTHONOTARY OR CLERK OF ANY COURT IN THE COMMONWEALTH
OF PENNSYLVANIA, OR ELSEWHERE, TO APPEAR AT ANY TIME FOR BORROWER AFTER A

WITH OR WITHOUT COMPLAINT FILED, AS OF ANY TERM, CONFESS OR ENTER JUDGMENT

INTEREST FOR COLLECTION, BUT IN ANY EVENT NOT LESS THAN FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS ($500) ON WHICH JUDGMENT OR JUDGMENTS ONE OR MORE EXECUTIONS MAY
ISSUE IMMEDIATELY; AND FOR SO DOING, THIS NOTE OR A COPY OF THIS NOTE VERIFIED

NOTE/MORTGAGE TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER SHALL NOT BE
EXHAUSTED BY ANY EXERCISE OF THAT AUTHORITY, BUT SHALL CONTINUE FROM TIME
TO TIME AND AT ALL TIMES UNTIL PAYMENT IN FULL OF ALL AMOUNTS DUE UNDER THIS
NOTE. THE BORROWER STATES THAT EITHER A REPRESENTATIVE OF LENDER
SPECIFICALLY CALLED THIS CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT PROVISION TO BORROWER'S
ATTENTION OR BORROWER HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL.
