Promissory Note



About:

A Promissory Note is the legal name for a legal document people sometimes think of as an “IOU”. The promissory note is sometimes used in conjunction with a Loan Agreement where additional provisions are required for more detailed loan arrangements. In general a promissory note will address the following issues regarding a loan:

  • the term of the loan (it can be for a specified fixed length of time or payable “on demand” whenever the lender demands repayment of the amount loaned to the borrower)
  • the amount of the loan
  • the interest payable
  • any terms regarding the right to pre-pay the loan before the due date
  • what happens if the borrower misses a payment or fails to pay when payment is demanded
