This Loan Note Guarantee is issued under Lender Agreement for Guaranteed Single Family Housing Loans dated
in connection with the above identified loan.
In consideration of the making of the subject loan by the Lender, the United States of America, acting through the Rural Housing
Service of the Rural Development mission area (herein called ''RHS''), pursuant to Title V of the Housing Act of 1949 (42 U.S.C. 1471 et.
seq.), agrees that, subject to the terms and conditions herein, it will pay to the Lender the lesser of
1. Any loss of an amount equal to 90 percent of the principal amount actually advanced to the Borrower, or
2. Any loss sustained by the lender of an amount up to 35 percent of the principal amount actually advanced to the Borrower, plus
85 percent of any additional loss sustained by the Lender of an amount up to the remaining 65 percent the principal amount
actually advanced to the Borrower.
Loss includes only (a) principal and interest evidenced by the Note; (b) any loan subsidy due and owing; and (c) any principal and
interest indebtedness on RHS approved protective advances for protection and preservation of collateral. Interest (including any subsidy)
shall be covered by the Loan Note Guarantee to the date of the final loss settlement when the Lender conducts liquidation of collateral in
an expeditious manner. Net proceeds received from liquidation of the collateral will be used in calculating the amount of loss sustained by
the Lender. If the Lender acquires the collateral, the net proceeds from collateral for calculating loss shall be determined by RHS as
follows: (i) the collateral will be appraised at its current market value as of the date of acquisition by the Lender then (ii) deduct from
such appraised value an estimate of liquidation cost which will include an allowance for the estimated time the property will be held
by the Lender.
If RHS conducts the liquidation of the loan, loss occasioned to a Lender by accruing interest after the date RHS accepts responsibility for
the liquidation will not be covered by the Loan Note Guarantee.
Lender may sell the guaranteed loan only to a Lender which meets the qualifications and in the manner as provided in Subpart D, 7 CFR
part 1980. Such loan must not be in default at the time of the sale.
Lender may obtain participation in its loan under its procedures. Participation means a sale of an interest in the loan wherein the Lender
retains the note, collateral securing the note, and all responsibility for all loan servicing and liquidation. A participant has no rights under
this instrument.

CONDITIONS OF THE GUARANTEE
1. Loan Servicing
Lender will be responsible for servicing the entire loan and Lender will remain mortgagee and/or secured party of record. The Lender may sell the
loan servicing rights to an RHS eligible Lender when the purchasing Lender agrees to be bound by all of the same terms as the selling Lender and this
agreement and the RHS Lender Agreement for Guaranteed Single Family Housing Loans.
2. Full Faith and Credit
The Loan Note Guarantee constitutes an obligation supported by full faith and credit of the United States and is incontestable except for
fraud or misrepresentation of which the lender has actual knowledge at the time it becomes such lender or which the lender participates in
or condones. A note which provides for the payment of interest on interest shall not be guaranteed. If the note to which this instrument is
attached or relates provides for the payment of interest on interest, then this Loan Note Guarantee is void. In addition, the Loan Note
Guarantee will be unenforceable by the lender to the extent any loss is occasioned by violation of usury laws, negligent servicing, or
failure to obtain the required security regardless of the time at which RHS acquires knowledge of the forgoing. Any losses
According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control

occasioned will be unenforceable by the lender to the extent that loan funds are used for purposes other than those approved by RHS in its
Form RD 1980-18, " Conditional Commitment for Single Family Housing Loan Guarantee." Negligent servicing is defined as the failure to
perform those services which a reasonably prudent lender would perform in servicing its own loan portfolio of loans that are not guaranteed.
The term includes not only the concept of a failure to act but also not acting in a timely manner or acting contrary to the manner in which a
reasonably prudent lender would act up to the time of loan maturity or until a final loss is paid. If RHS determines that a Lender did not
originate a loan in accordance within the requirements in 7 CFR part 1980, subpart D, and RHS pays a claim under the loan guarantee, RHS
may revoke the Lenders' eligibility status in accordance with Section 1980.309(h) and may also require the Lender: (1) To indemnify RHS
for the loss, if the payment under guarantee was made within 24 months of loan closing; or (2) To indemnify RHS for the loss, regardless
of how long ago the loan closed, if RHS determines that fraud or misrepresentation was involved in connection with the origination of the
loan.
3. Lender will receive all payments of principal and interest, annual fee, and any loan subsidy on the account of the entire loan.
4. The Loan Note Guarantee is subject to an annual fee billed to the Lender and collected by the Agency on an annual basis pursuant to 42
U.S.C. 1472 (h) 8, 7 CFR part 1980, subpart D, and RHS procedures. The annual fee is calculated each year at
%. of the unpaid
principal balance. The annual fee for the first year is calculated when the loan is closed based upon the loan amount. Thereafter, the annual fee is
calculated every 12 months based upon the average scheduled amortized unpaid principal balance. Billing for the annual fee will begin 12 months
from the closing of the loan. The annual fee is subject to a 4% late charge.
5. Protective Advances made by the Lender pursuant to RHS regulations will be guaranteed against a percentage of the loss to the same
extent as provided in the Loan Note Guarantee.
6. The Loan Note Guarantee will terminate automatically (a) upon full payment of the guaranteed loan; or (b) upon full payment of any loss
obligation hereunder; or (c) upon written notice from the Lender to RHS that the guarantee will terminate provided this Loan Note
Guarantee is returned to be canceled by RHS.
7. Any amount due under this instrument will be determined and paid, as provided in 7 CFR part 1980, subpart D in effect on the date of this
instrument.
