I.

General Provisions
A. Purpose.
The Lender (''Lender'') is approved to process and request Loan Note Guarantees and to service those loans as authorized

Lenders must meet and maintain the following requirements at a level consistent with the nature and size of their portfolio of
guaranteed loans:
1.
Commitment. Lender must have a commitment for a guaranteed loan or an agreement to purchase a guaranteed loan.
2.
Certification. Lender must provide certification on an annual basis that it has maintained its overall financial strength,
including capital, liquidity, and loan loss reserves to maintain an acceptable rating by a lender rating service, or that it
has maintained its status as an approved Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac, or HUD Federal Housing
Administration multifamily lender, or, if a state housing finance agency, to have a top tier rating by a rating agency.
3.
Previous participation. Lender may not be delinquent on a federal debt or have an outstanding finding of deficiency in a
federal housing program.
4.
Ongoing requirements. Lender must have:
(a) An adequate overall level of capital to ensure stability of business operations;
(b) Adequate liquidity to respond to continuing demands for cash;
(c) Bonding and insurance to cover business related losses, including directors and officers insurance, business
income loss insurance, and bonding to secure cash management operations;

(e) A minimum of two years experience in originating and servicing multifamily loans;
(f) A positive record of past performance when participating in federal loan programs;
(g) Adequate staffing and training to perform the program obligations;

established in the Loan Note Guarantee. The terms of any Loan Note Guarantee are controlling.
B.

Full Faith and Credit.
This Agreement is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States and is incontestable for fraud or misrepresentation
of which the Lender hand knowledge at the time the Lender acquired the guarantee or assigned the loan, or in which a Lender
participates in or condones. The guarantee will be unenforceable by the lender to the extent any loss is occasioned by a
violation of usury laws, negligent servicing, or origination by the Lender, including failure to acquire the required security, or
as a result of a use of loan funds for purposes other than those authorized by the Agency. These acts constitute grounds for
the refusal to make full payment under the guarantee to the Lender. The Agency gives the Lender notice of the acts or
omissions that it considers to constitute such grounds, specifying the applicable provisions of the Statue, Regulations, Loan
Note Guarantee or Lender Agreement; the Lender has not cured the acts or omissions within 90 calendar days after

number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 0575-0174. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to
average 45 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and

such notice; and the acts or omissions can reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the credit quality of the
guaranteed mortgage or the physical condition of the property securing the guaranteed mortgage. If such acts or omissions
cannot be cured with 90 calendar day period, the 90 calendar day cure period automatically shall be extended so long as
curative activities are commenced during the 90 calendar day period. At no time shall the curative period extend more than
270 calendar days form the expiration of the original 90 calendar day cure period. When a guaranteed portion of a loan is sold
to a Holder, the Holder shall succeed to all rights of the Lender under the Loan Note Guarantee to the extent of the portion
purchased. The lender will remain bound to all obligations under the Loan Note Guarantee, Lender's Agreement, and the
Agency program regulations.

The Lender agrees loan funds will be used for the purposes authorized in 7 CFR part 3565 in accordance with the terms of
Form RD 3565-2, ''Conditional Commitment.''
The Lender certifies that none of the Lender's officers or directors, stockholders, or other owners (except stockholders in a Farm
Credit Bank or other Farm Credit System (''FCS'') Institution with direct lending authority that have normal stock or share
requirements for participation) have a financial interest in any borrower receiving a Government Guaranteed Multi-family
Loan (Borrower). The Lender certifies that neither Borrower nor the Borrower's officers or directors, stockholders or other
owners have a financial interest in the Lender. If a Borrower is a member of the board of directors or an officer of a Farm Credit
Bank or other FCS Institution with direct lending authority, the Lender certifies that an FCS institution on the next highest level
will independently process the loan request and will act as the Lender's agent in servicing the account.
The Lender will certify to the Government, prior to issuance of the Loan Note Guarantee for each loan, that there has been
neither any material adverse change in a Borrower's financial condition, nor any other material adverse change in a Borrower,
for any reason, during the period of time from the Government's issuance of the Conditional Commitment to issuance of the
Loan Note Guarantee regardless of the case or causes of the change and whether the change or causes of the change were
within the Lender's or a Borrower's control. The Lender's certification must address all adverse changes of a Borrower, any
parent, affiliate, or subsidiary of a Borrower, and guarantors.
Lender certifies that a Regulatory Agreement or loan instruments concurred in by the Government have been or will be signed
by the Borrower.
Lender pays required guarantee fee on the due date the Loan Note Guarantee is issued. An annual guarantee fee of
(
percent) of the outstanding principal amount of the loan will be charged
each year that the guarantee is in effect. The fee will be collected in accordance with 7 CFR 3565, subpart B.
The Lender will utilize one of the three types of loan guarantees set forth at 7 CFR §3565.52(c).

facilities are not used for any purpose other than an approved program purpose under 7 CFR part 3565..
Use restriction. The Lender will assure that, for the original term of the guaranteed loan, the housing remains available
for occupancy by low and moderate income households, in accordance with 7 CFR §3565.352. This requirement will be
included in a deed restriction. The restriction will apply unless the housing is acquired by foreclosure or an instrument in lieu
of foreclosure, or the Government waives the applicability of this requirement for reasons authorized in 7 CFR part 3565,
subpart H.
Civil Rights Requirements. It is the Lender's responsibility to ensure that the Borrower complies with Title VIII of the Fair
Housing Acts as amended by the Fair Housing Amendments of 1988. The Lender must also ensure that the complex is in

E.

The Lender will notify the Government when a Borrower is thirty (30) days past due on a payment or if a Borrower is otherwise
in default. Lender will notify the Government of the status of a Borrower's default on Form RD 1980-44 ''Guaranteed Loan
Borrower Default Status.'' Actions taken by Lender with written concurrence of the Government will include, but are not
limited to, the following or any combination thereof:
1.
Deferment of principal payments;
2.
An additional temporary loan by the Lender to bring the account current;
3.
Reamortization of or rescheduling the payments on the loan;
4.
Transfer and assumption of the loan in accordance with the applicable subpart of 7 CFR part 3565;
5.
Reorganization;
6.
Liquidation; or
7.
Subsequent loan guarantees.
Responsibility of Lender. It is the Lender's responsibility to ensure that maintenance of the property meets Government
requirements and the tenants' rights are protected, until such time that the property is liquidated by the Lender. . The Lender
must update the Government monthly until the default is cured or a claim is filed. The Lender must maintain adequate records
of any and all efforts to cure the default or to foreclose.
Initiating special servicing. When special servicing is initiated, the Lender must submit for Government review a special
servicing plan that includes proposed actions to cure the deficiencies and a time frame for completion. The Lender must obtain
Government approval of the terms of any workout agreement with a Borrower.
Due diligence by Lender. For all loan servicing actions where a market, net recovery or liquidation value determination is
required, Lenders shall perform due diligence in conjunction with the appraisal and submit it to the Government for review. The
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment published by the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) is considered an
acceptable format for due diligence.
Environmental review. The Lender must provide the information needed by the Government to complete an environmental
review under the National Environmental Policy Act, in accordance with 7 CFR part 1940, subpart G, or any successor
regulation prior to disposition of inventory property and prior to any authorization to the Lender to foreclose and dispose of
property, and for any other servicing action requiring Government approval or consent.

VII. Liquidation
If the Lender concludes pursuant to Government regulations that liquidation of a guaranteed loan account is necessary because of one
or more defaults or third party actions that a Borrower cannot or will not cure or eliminate within a reasonable period of time, liquidation
may be considered. If the Lender concludes that liquidation is necessary, it must request the Government's concurrence.
When the Government concurs with the Lender's conclusion, or at any time concludes independently that liquidation is necessary, it
will notify the Lender and the Lender will liquidate the loan unless Government, at its option, decides to carry out liquidation.
A.

Lender's proposed method of liquidation. Within 30 calendar days after the decision to liquidate, the Lender will advise the
Government in writing of its proposed detailed method of liquidation (''liquidation plan"') and will provide the Government
with:
1. Satisfactory proof as the Government requires to establish the Lender's ownership of the guaranteed loan promissory
notes and related security instruments;
2. Information lists concerning the property's assets including real and personal property, fixtures, claims, contracts, inventory,

accounts receivable, personal and corporate guarantees, and other existing and contingent assets, and advice as to
whether or not each item is serving as collateral for the guaranteed loan;
3. A proposed method of making the maximum collection possible on the indebtedness; and
4. The Lender will obtain an complete appraisal report on all collateral securing the loan, which will reflect the fair market
value and potential liquidated value, and an examination of the title on the collateral. All real property appraisals with
Government guaranteed loanmaking and servicing transactions will meet the requirements set forth by the Financial
Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 and appropriate guidelines set for in Standards 1 and 2 of
the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices. Chattels will be evaluated in accordance with normal banking
practices and generally accepted methods of determining value. The appraisal report is for the purpose of permitting the
Lender and the Government to determine the appropriate liquidation actions.
The Government will inform the Lender in writing whether it concurs in the Lender's liquidation plan. For interest accrual
purposes, interest will accrue for 90 calendar days after the date the liquidation plan is approved by the Government. If within
20 calendar days of the Government's receipt of the liquidation plan, the Government fails to respond to the Lender's proposal
or advise the Lender to make revisions to the plan that was submitted, the liquidation plan will be approved by default, and the
90 calendar day period for interest accrual will commence. Should the Government and the Lender not agree on the Lender's
liquidation plan, negotiations will take place between the Government and the Lender to resolve the disagreement. The Lender
will ordinarily conduct the liquidation; however, should the Government determine that it will conduct the liquidation, the
parties will proceed as follows:
1. The Lender will transfer to the Government all rights and interest necessary to allow the Government to liquidate the
loan. In this event, the Lender will not be paid for any loss until after the collateral is liquidated and the final loss is
determined by the Government.
2. The Government will attempt to obtain the maximum amount of proceeds from liquidation.
3. Options available to the Government include any one or combination of the usual commercial methods of liquidation.
Acceleration. The Lender or the Government, if it liquidates, will proceed as expeditiously as possible when acceleration of the
indebtedness is necessary including giving any notices and taking any other legal actions required by the security instruments.
A copy of the acceleration notice or other acceleration document will be sent to the Government or the Lender, as the case may
be.
Liquidation: Accounting and Reports. When the Lender conducts the liquidation, it will account for funds during the period of
liquidation and will provide the Government with periodic reports on the progress of liquidation, disposition of collateral,
resulting costs and additional procedures necessary for successful completion of liquidation.
Determination of Loss and Payment. In all liquidation cases, final settlement will be made with the Lender after the collateral
is liquidated. The Government will have the right to recover losses paid under the guarantee from any party liable.
1. Maximum guarantee payment. The maximum guarantee payment will not exceed the product of 90%, or such lesser
guarantee percentage as set forth in the guarantee agreement, times the allowable loss amount.
2. Date of loss. The date of loss is the earliest of the date on which the property is foreclosed or acquired or the proposed
date of foreclosure or acquisition in the liquidation plan, unless an alternative date is approved by the Government.
Where the Government chooses to accept an assignment of the loan or conveyance of title, the date of loss will be the
date on which the Government accepts assignment of the loan or conveyance of title.
3. Allowable claim amount. The allowable loss amount must be calculated by adding to the unpaid principal and interest on
the date of loss, an amount approved by the Government for payments made by the Lender for amounts due and owing
on the property.
4. Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note Guarantee Report of Loss,'' will be used for calculations of all estimated and final loss
determinations. Payments will be made in accordance with applicable Government regulations.
5. When the Lender is conducting the liquidation, and owns any of the guaranteed portion of the loan, the Lender will file
an estimated loss claim with the liquidation plan if the Lender expects the liquidation to exceed 90 calendar days. The
estimated loss claim will include 90 calendar days of interest accrual on the defaulted loan at the time the estimated loss
claim is paid by the Government. If the Lender estimates that there will be no loss after considering the costs of
liquidation, the Lender submits an estimated loss claim of zero. Interest accrual will cease 90 calendar days after the
liquidation plan is approved by the Government. The Government will agree to pay an estimated loss settlement to the
Lender provided the Lender applies such amount due to the outstanding principal balance owed on the guaranteed debt.
Such estimate will be prepared and submitted by the Lender on Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note Guarantee Report of Loss,
using the basic formula as provided on the report except that the appraisal value will be used in lieu of the amount
received from the sale of collateral.
After the Report of Loss estimate has been approved by the Government, and within 30 days thereafter, the
Government will institute procedures to cause the issuance of payment of the estimated amount due the Lender.
After liquidation has been completed, a final loss report will be submitted on Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note Guarantee

Report of Loss,'' by the Lender to the Government.
6. Before approval by the Government of any final loss report, the Lender must account for all funds during the period of
liquidation, disposition of collateral, all costs incurred and any other information necessary for the successful completion
of liquidation. Upon receipt of the final accounting and report of loss, the Government may audit the account and will
determine the final loss. The Lender will make its records available to and otherwise assist the Government in making
any audit. The documentation accompanying the report of loss must support the figures shown on Form RD 449-30,
''Loan Note Guarantee Report of Loss. ''
7. When the Lender has conducted liquidation and after the final report of loss has been tentatively approved:
(a)
If the loss is greater than the estimated loss payment, the Government will pay the additional amount owed by the
Government to the Lender.
(b)
If the loss is less than the estimated loss, the Lender will reimburse the Government for the overpayment.
8. If the Government has conducted liquidation, it will provide an accounting and report of loss to the Lender and will pay
the Lender in accordance with the Loan Note Guarantee.
9. In those instances where the Lender has made authorized protective advances, it may claim recovery for the guaranteed
portion of any loss of monies advanced as protective advances and interest resulting from such protective advances as
provided above, and such payment will be made by the Government when the final report of loss is approved.
Maximum amount of interest loss payment. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this agreement, the amount payable by
the Government to the Lender cannot exceed the limits set forth in the Loan Note Guarantee. If the Government conducts the
liquidation, any loss occasioned by accruing interest will be covered to the extent of the guarantee to the date the Government
accepts this responsibility. Loss occasioned by accruing interest will be covered for covered for 90 calendar days after the
liquidation plan is approved by the Government.
Application of Government loss payment. The estimated loss payment shall be applied as of the date of such payment. The total
amount of the loss payment remitted by the Government will be applied by the Lender on the guaranteed portion of the loan
debt. However, such application does not release Borrowers from liability. At time of final loss settlement the Lender will
notify the delinquent Borrowers that the loss payment has been so applied. In all cases a final Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note
Guarantee Report of Loss, '' prepared and submitted by the Lender must be processed by the Government.
Income from collateral. Any net rental or other income that has been received by the Lender from the collateral will be applied
on the guaranteed loan debt.
Liquidation costs. Certain reasonable liquidation costs will be allowed during the liquidation process. A schedule of the
liquidation costs will be submitted as a part of the liquidation plan. Such costs will be deducted from gross proceeds from the
disposition of collateral unless the costs have been previously determined by the Lender (with the Government's written
concurrence) to be protective advances. If changed circumstances after submission of the liquidation plan require a revision of
liquidation costs, the Lender will obtain the Government's written concurrence prior to proceeding with the proposed charges.
Foreclosure. The Lender is responsible for determining who the necessary parties are to any foreclosure action or who should
be named on a deed of conveyance taken in lieu of foreclosure. When the conveyance is received and the property is
liquidated, the net proceeds will be applied to the guaranteed loan debt.
Payment. Such loss will be paid by the Government within 60 days after the review of the accounting of the collateral.
Protective Advances. Protective advances must constitute an indebtedness of a Borrower to the Lender and be secured by the
security instruments. The Government's written authorization is required for all protective advances in excess of $5,000.
Protective advances include, but are not limited to, advances made for property taxes, annual assessments, ground rent,
hazard or flood insurance premiums affecting the collateral, and other expenses necessary to preserve or protect the security.
Attorney fees are not a protective advance.
Assignment of Debt. Upon payment, in whole or in part, to the Holder, the note or judgment evidencing the debt shall be
assigned to the Government and the Holder shall have no further claim against the delinquent Borrowers or the Government.
The Government shall then take such action to collect as the Government determines appropriate.
Refinancing. Any loan guaranteed under this section maybe refinanced and extended in accordance with the terms and
conditions that the Government may prescribe, but in no event for an additional amount or term that exceeds the limitations
under 7 CFR part 3565.
Nonassumption. A Borrower under a loan that is guaranteed under 7 CFR part 3565 and under which any portion of the
principal obligation or interest remains unpaid may not be relieved of liability with respect to the loan, notwithstanding the
transfer of property for which the loan was made.

VIII. Bankruptcy
A.

The Lender is responsible for protecting the guaranteed loan and all collateral securing the loan in bankruptcy proceedings.
When the loan is involved in reorganization bankruptcy proceedings, payment of loss claims may be made as provided in this
section. For a liquidation proceeding only paragraphs 3 and 6 of this section are applicable.

Loss Payments.
1. Estimated Loss Payments.
(a) If a Borrower has filed for protection under title 11 of the United States Code and the debt has been reduced, the
Lender will request a initial estimated loss payment of accrued interest and principal discharged by the order of
the court. This request can only be made after the bankruptcy plan is confirmed. Only one estimated loss payment
is allowed during the bankruptcy process. All subsequent claims during reorganization will be considered revisions
to the initial estimated loss. A revised estimated loss payment may be processed by the Government, at its option,
in accordance with any court approved changes in the reorganization plan. At the time the performance under the
confirmed reorganization plan has been completed, the Lender is responsible for providing the Government with
the documentation necessary to review and adjust the estimated loss claim to (a) reflect the actual principal and
interest reduction on any part of the guaranteed debt determined to be unsecured and (b) to reimburse the Lender
for any court ordered interest rate reduction during the term of the reorganization.
(b) The Lender will use Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note Guarantee Report of Loss,'' to request an estimated loss payment
and to review estimated loss payments during the course of the reorganization plan. The estimated loss claim as
well as any revisions to this claim will be accompanied by applicable legal documentation to support the claim.
2. Interest Loss Payments.
(a) Interest loss payments sustained during the period of the reorganization plan will be processed in accordance
with section VIII. B. 1.
(b) Interest loss payments sustained after the reorganization plan is confirmed will be processed annually when
the Lender sustains a loss as a result of a permanent interest rate reduction.
(c)
Form RD 449-30, ''Loan Note Guarantee Report of Loss,'' will be completed to compensate the Lender for the
difference in interest rates specified on the Loan Note Guarantee and the rate of interest ordered by and in accordance
with final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
3.
4.

Final Loss Payments. Payments will be processed when the loan is liquidated.
Payment Application. The Lender must apply estimated loss payments first to the unsecured principal of the guaranteed
portion of the debt and then to the unsecured interest of the guaranteed portion of the debt. In the event the court directs
the payments to be applied in a different manner, the Lender will immediately notify the Government.
5. Overpayments. Upon completion of the reorganization plan, the Lender will provide the Government with the
documentation necessary to determine whether the estimated loss paid equals the actual loss sustained. If the actual loss
sustained, as a result of the reorganization, is greater than the estimated loss payment, the Lender will submit a revised
estimated loss in order to obtain payment of the additional amount owed by the Government to the Lender. If the actual
loss payment is less than the estimated loss, the Lender will reimburse the Government for the overpayment at the note
rate from the date of the payment of the estimated loss.
6. Protective Advances. If approved protective advances were made prior to a Borrower having filed bankruptcy as a result
of prior liquidation action, these protective advances and accrued interest will be entered on Form RD 449-30, ''Loan
Note Guarantee Report of Loss. ''
IX. Duration and Modification
1. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement applies to all Guaranteed Rural Rental Housing loans made by the Lender from
the date of this Agreement until terminated or superseded by another Agreement.
2. Modification of Agreement . This Agreement may only be modified in writing.
3. Other Requirements. This Agreement is subject and incorporates all requirements of the applicable subpart of 7 CFR
part 3565 in effect on the date of this Agreement.
4. All forms required by this Agreement may be obtained from any Rural Development state or local office.
