4. Minimum Payment Requirements.
a. Plus Line and Home Equity Fixed for 5 Years. You can obtain credit advances for five years (the “draw period”). At the Credit Union’s option, the draw period may be renewed for one additional five year period. During the draw period, payments will be due monthly. Your minimum monthly payment will be equal to 1.0% of the outstanding balance of your Account or $125.00, whichever is greater. After the draw period ends, you will no longer be able to obtain credit advances and must repay the outstanding balance (the “repayment period”). The length of the repayment period will be a maximum of ten years. During the repayment period, payments will be due monthly. Your minimum monthly payment will be the amount necessary to amortize the balance at the beginning of the repayment period over ten years or$125.00, whichever is greater.
b. Interest Only Draw Period. You can obtain advances for five (5) years (the “draw period”). At the Credit Union’s option, the draw period may be renewed for one additional five (5) year period. During the draw period, payments will be due monthly. Your minimum monthly payment will be equal the accrued interest as of the end of your billing cycle. After the draw period ends, you will no longer be able to obtain credit advances and must repay the outstanding balance (the “repayment period”). The length of the repayment period will be a maximum of ten (10) years. During the repayment period, payments will be due monthly. Your minimum monthly payment will be the amount necessary to amortize the balance at the beginning of the repayment period over ten (10) years or $125.00, whichever is greater.
Any increase or decrease in the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will affect the number of payments you will make under the Agreement. However, if at any time during the life of the loan the amount of the monthly payment is not enough to pay at least the FINANCE CHARGES accruing and advance for insurance premiums (if applicable), we may increase your monthly payment to an amount necessary to amortize the loan balance over the remainder of the original repayment period.
5. Minimum Payment Examples.
a. Plus Line. If you took a single $10,000.00 advance at an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 4.50%and made only the minimum monthly payments, it would take 96 months to pay off your account. During that period you would make 95 payments of $125.00 and one final payment of $36.49.
b. Five Year Fixed. If you took a single $10,000.00 advance at an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 5.25% and made only the minimum monthly payments, it would take 99 months to pay off your account. During that period you would make 98 payments of $125.00 and one final payment of $85.05.
c. Interest Only Draw Period. If you took a single $10,000.00 advance at an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 4.75% and made only the minimum monthly payments, it would take 157 months to pay off your account. During that period you would make 60 payments of $39.58, 96 payments of $125.00, and one final payment of $48.24.
6. Fees and Charges. In order to open and maintain the account, you must pay certain fees and charges.
a. Line of Credit Annual Fee. $50.00 due on the first business day of January of each year.
b. Third Party Fees. You must pay certain fees to third parties such as appraisers, credit reporting firms, and government agencies. You must carry insurance on the property that secures this Account. These fees generally total between $628.00 and $3,283.00 depending on the amount of the loan or line of credit. For example, on a $10,000.00 loan or line of credit the following estimated fees must be paid to third parties:
| Appraisal (if required) | $725.00 - $1,200.00 |
| Title Insurance | $85.00 - $1,300.00 |
| Recording Fee | $111.00 - $158.00 |
| Flood Certification | $13.65 - $18.00 |
| Escrow | $325.00 - $425.00 |
| Tax Service | $81.00 |
| Reconveyance | $165.00 - $250.00 |
| Property Valuation | $150.00 - $175.00 |
| Wire Transfer | $25.00 |
These fees may not apply to all loans, or may be less than the above example. Ask us for the exact fees applicable to your loan. You will be responsible for any fees we pay to third parties even if your loan is not approved.
7. Appraisal Report. You have the right to a copy of any real estate appraisal we use in connection with your credit application. To receive a copy, your request must be in writing to: Central Willamette Community Credit Union, P.O. Box D, Albany, OR 97321. We must hear from you no later than 90 days after we notify you about any action taken on your credit application, or after you withdraw your application.
8. Tax Deductibility. You should consult a tax advisor regarding the deductibility of interest and charges under the plan.
9. Annual Percentage Rate. Your account has a variable rate feature and the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (corresponding to the periodic rate) may change as result. For Home Equity Fixed for Five Year accounts, the initial ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is fixed for the first five years of the account. After that, the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is variable. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE includes only interest and not other costs.
10. Variable Rate Features.
a. Determination of Rate. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is based on the value of an index. The index is the Prime Rate as published in The Wall Street Journal. To determine the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE that will apply to your account, we add a margin to the value of the index. Ask us for the current index value, margin, and ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. After you open an account, rate information will be provided on periodic statements that we will send you.
b. Rate Changes. The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE can change on the first day of each month. The minimum ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE is 3.0%. The maximum ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE that can apply is 21.0%.
11. Default Rate. If your Account becomes 60 days past due, the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE will be increased to 21%. This rate will remain in effect until payments have been brought current and there have been no payments past due more than 10 days for a period of 180 days.
12. Maximum Rate and Payment Examples. If you had an outstanding balance of $10,000.00 at the beginning of your Account, the minimum monthly payment at the maximum ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 21.0% would be $175.00 (to avoid negative amortization). This ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE could be reached during the first quarter of the draw period for all accounts except Fixed for Five Year accounts, for which this ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE could be reached in the sixth year of the account. If you had an outstanding balance of $10,000.00 at the beginning of the repayment period, the minimum monthly payment at the maximum ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 18.0% would be $199.93. This ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE could be reached during the first quarter of the repayment period.
13. Historical Example. The following table shows how the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE and the minimum monthly payments for a single $10,000.00 credit advance would have change based on changes in the index over the last 15 years. The index values are from January of each year. While only one payment amount per year is shown, payments would have varied slightly during each year. The table assumes that no additional credit advances were taken, that only the minimum payment was made each month, and that the rate remained constant during each year. It does not necessarily indicate how the index or your payments would change in the future.
