What is a Line Of Credit Promissory Note?

A line of credit promissory note is essentially a written promise by a borrower to pay back a loan from another party. It is common for the lender to be a financial institution like a bank or lending company; however, the source of funds can be any individual or company that is willing to carry the note and provide financing to a borrower. Line of credit promissory notes should always contain the following information so both parties have clear understanding of their obligations:

  • Principal amount of the loan
  • Interest rate
  • Maturity date
  • Date and place of issuance
  • Issuer’s signature

Common Sections in Line Of Credit Promissory Notes

Below is a list of common sections included in Line Of Credit Promissory Notes. These sections are linked to the below sample agreement for you to explore.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
