Eligible customers participating in the Program may receive closing cost credits in the amount of one percent (1.00%) of the principal balance of the Downpayment Loan and one percent (1.00%) of the principal balance of the Token-Backed Mortgage Loan, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3 below and to applicable Federal and State law.
