Ohio Unsecured Promissory Note Template
	Adobe PDF MS Word

The Ohio Unsecured Promissory Note Template provides a written record of an agreement between two parties (a lender/borrower) regarding a loan. The template can only be used to draft an unsecured promissory note (i.e. a note that does not require collateral from the borrower). Unsecured notes typically feature higher interest rates, due to the fact that there is no attached security (in the form of collateral). The instructions posted below can be used as a reference when filling out the template.
