   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  07-2438
                          and No:  07-2480
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Riley and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Bankruptcy - prepayment. Bank's loan to TSE was paid off following bankruptcy and sale of business. Bankruptcy court granted bank's motion for 2% prepayment penalty for pre-petition under section 502(b) but denied the motion under section 506(b). The district court reversed the grant under section 502(b). Because there was no agreement regarding the imposition of a prepayment penalty under any set of facts, the bankruptcy court's decision is reversed and the applicability of sections 502(b) or 506(b) need not be addressed.
