Debt Repayment Step Up Question

Hi All

I recently received a term sheet which stipulated 25y amort for the first 3 years (simple enough) and then "after year 3, the monthly payment will annually step up to payoff the loan in 20 years" (see yellow highlighted instructions and cell D58 where the different amort period begins).

I am struggling to model the step up correctly (currently the pmt's are all constant rather than lower in the beginning and then higher towards the end as they step up) - would an experienced excel user please help me out here and provide some insight into which formula(s) are best to use to handle a case like this?

Also - feel free to share any other insights / recommendations you guys have (I may have made a mistake or two).

Thanks in advance!
