The annual percentage rate (APR) will be based on the highest domestic Prime Rate as reported in the Money Rate Section of the Midwest Edition of the Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the month immediately preceding each billing period. The prime rate is 3.25% effective December 16,2008. Prime is a variable rate and as it changes, the APR on a floating line of credit will change. The maximum rate on your home equity line will not exceed 23.00% with a minimum floor rate of 5.00%. An annual fee of $45.00 will apply. Monthly payments of interest only will result in a balloon payment at maturity. A prepayment penalty of $495.00 will be charged if a line is cancelled within the first 12 months. Homeowner’s insurance is required. For lines over $100,000 there will be a charge for title insurance. First Eagle is an Equal Housing Lender and Member FDIC.
