Limit on Rate of Interest Sample Clauses
The "Limit on Rate of Interest" clause sets a maximum allowable interest rate that can be charged under an agreement. In practice, this means that if the calculated or agreed-upon interest rate exceeds the legal or contractually specified cap, the rate is automatically reduced to the permitted maximum. This clause typically applies to loans, credit agreements, or any financial arrangement involving interest payments. Its core function is to ensure compliance with usury laws and protect parties from excessively high interest charges, thereby reducing the risk of unenforceable or illegal interest provisions.
