The term of this Note shall be one (1) year and the principal balance of this Note and any applicable imputed interest shall be payable by the Maker on or before June 1, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time. The accrued balance of the Note shall be repaid by the Maker in cash on or prior to the Maturity Date.

Each Drawdown Request must state the amount to be drawn down, and must not be an amount less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) unless agreed upon by Maker and Payee in writing. Payee shall fund each Drawdown Request no later than five (5) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the total net maximum amount of drawdowns (offsetting the amounts repaid by the Maker from time to time) under this Note shall not exceed the Principal Amount under any circumstance.
