(include Bond as appropriate) described as follows:

The United States of America, acting through Rural Housing Service or any successor agency, the United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) (herein referred to as "Government") has entered into a ''Loan Note Guarantee'' (Form RD 449-34) or has issued a ''Conditional
Commitment for Guarantee'' (Form RD 449-14) to enter into a Loan Note Guarantee with the Lender applicable to such loan.
The terms of the Loan Note Guarantee are controlling. In order to facilitate the marketability of the guaranteed portion of the loan and as a
condition for obtaining a guarantee of the loan, the Lender enters into this agreement.
THE PARTIES AGREE:
I.
The maximum loss covered under the Loan Note Guarantee will not exceed
Principal and accrued interest including any loan subsidy on the above indebtedness.

percent of the

II. Full Faith and Credit. The Loan Note Guarantee constitutes an obligation supported by the 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 became such
Lender or which Lender participates in or condones. Any note which provides for the payment of interest on interest shall not be
guaranteed. Any Loan Note Guarantee or Assignment Guarantee Agreement attached to or relating to a note which provides for payment of interest on interest is void.
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 the Government acquires knowledge of the
foregoing. Any losses will be unenforceable by the Lender to the extent that loan funds are used for purposes other than those specifically
approved by the Government in its Conditional Commitment for Guarantee. Negligent servicing is defined as the failure to perform those
services which a reasonably prudent Lender would perform in servicing its own 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 in a manner 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.

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 number. The valid OMB control
number for this information collection is 0575-0137. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 1! hours per response, including the time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.

loan, only through participation. However, the Lender will always retain the responsibility for loan servicing and liquidation.
B. When a guaranteed portion of a loan is sold by the Lender to a Holder, the Holder shall thereupon succeed to all

-4B. The Lender will negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve any problem to permit the Borrower to cure a default,
where reasonable.
C. The Lender has the option to repurchase the unpaid guaranteed portion of the loan from the Holder within 30 days of
written demand by the Holder when: (a) the Borrower is in default not less than 60 days in payment of principal or interest due
on the loan or (b) the Lender has failed to remit to the Holder its pro rata share of any payment made by the Borrower or any loan
subsidy within 30 days of its receipt thereof. The repurchase by the Lender will be for an amount equal to the unpaid guaranteed
portion of the principal and accrued interest less the Lender's servicing fee. The loan note guarantee will not cover the note interest
to the Holder on the guaranteed loan accruing after 90 days from the date of the demand letter to the Lender requesting the
repurchase. Holder will concurrently send a copy of demand to the Government. The Lender will accept an assignment without
recourse from the Holder upon repurchase. The Lender is encouraged to repurchase the loan to facilitate the accounting for funds,
resolve the problem, and to permit the borrower to cure the default, where reasonable. The Lender will notify the Holder and the
Government of its decision.
D. If Lender does not repurchase as provided by paragraph C, the Government will purchase from Holder the unpaid
principal balance of the guaranteed portion herein together with accrued interest (including any loan subsidy) to date of the
Government's purchase, within 30 days after written demand to the Government from the Holder. The loan note guarantee will
not cover the note interest to the Holder on the guaranteed loans accruing after 90 days from the date of original demand letter of
the Holder to the Lender requesting the repurchase. Such demand will include a copy of the written demand made upon the Lender.
The Holder or its duly authorized agent will also include evidence of its right to require payment from the Government.
Such evidence will consist of either the originals of the Loan Note Guarantee and note properly endorsed to the Government or the
original of the Assignment Guarantee Agreement properly assigned to the Government without recourse including all rights, title,
and interest in the loan. The Government will be subrogated to all rights of Holder. The Holder will include in its demand the
amount due including unpaid principal, unpaid interest (including any loan subsidy) to date of demand and interest subsequently
accruing from date of demand to proposed payment date. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Government, such proposed payment
will not be later than 30 days from the date of the demand.
The Government office serving the Borrower will promptly notify the Lender of the Holder's demand for payment. The
Lender will promptly provide the Government office servicing the Borrower with the information necessary for the Government's
determination of the appropriate amount due the Holder. Any discrepancy between the amount claimed by the Holder and the
information submitted by the Lender must be resolved before payment will be approved. The Government will notify both parties
who must resolve the conflict before payment by the Government will be approved. Such a conflict will suspend the running of
the 30 day payment requirement. Upon receipt of the appropriate information, the Government office servicing the Borrower will
review the demand and submit it to the State Director for verification and remission of the check to the Holder.
E. Lender consents to the purchase by the Government and agrees to furnish on request by the Government a current statement
certified by an appropriate authorized officer of the Lender of the unpaid principal and interest then owed on the loan and the amount
due the Holders. Lender agrees that any purchase by the Government does not change, alter or modify any of the Lender's obligations
to the Government arising from the loan or guarantee, nor does such purchase waive any of the Government's rights against Lender
and the Government will have the right to set-off against Lender all rights inuring to Government from the Holder against the
Government's obligation to Lender under the Loan Note Guarantee. To the extent the Government holds a portion of a loan, will not
be paid the Lender.
F. Servicing fees assessed by the Lender to a Holder are collectible only from payment installments received by the Lender
from the Borrower. When the Government purchases from a Holder, the Government will pay the Holder only the amounts due the
Holder, the Government will not reimburse the Lender for servicing fees assessed to a Holder and not collected from payments
received from the Borrower. No servicing fee shall be charged the Government, and no such fee is collectible from the Government.
G. Lender may also repurchase the guaranteed portion of the loan consistent with paragraph 10 of the Loan Note Guarantee.
XI. Liquidation. If the Lender concludes that liquidation of a guaranteed loan account is necessary because of one or more
defaults or third party actions that the Borrower cannot or will not cure or eliminate within a reasonable period of time, a meeting
will be arranged by the Lender with the Government. 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 matter will be handled as follows:
The lender will liquidate the loan unless the Government, at its option, decides to carry out liquidation.
When the decision to liquidate is made, the Lender may proceed to purchase from Holders the guaranteed portion of the
loan. The Holder will be paid according to the provisions in the Loan Note Guarantee or the Assignment Guarantee Agreement.
If the Lender does not purchase the guaranteed portion of the loan, the Government will be notified immediately in
writing, the Government will then purchase the guaranteed portion of the loan from the Holder. If the Government holds any of the
guaranteed portion, the Government will be paid first its pro rata share of the proceeds from liquidation of the collateral.
A. Lender's proposed method of liquidation. Within 30 days after the decision to liquidate, the Lender will advise the
Government in writing of its proposed detailed method of liquidation called a liquidation plan and will provide the Government with:
1. Such 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 Borrower's assets including real and personal property, fixtures, claims, contracts,
inventory (including perishables), accounts receivable, personal and corporate guarantees, and other existing and contingent assets,
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.

4. If the outstanding principal loan balance including accrued interest is less than $200,000 the Lender will obtain an estimate
of the market and potential liquidated value of the collateral. On loan balances in excess of $200,000, and all other loans regardless of the
outstanding principal balance, the Lender will obtain an independent appraisal report on all collateral securing the loan, which will reflect
the current market value and potential liquidation value. The appraisal report is for the purpose of permitting the Lender and the
Government to determine the appropriate liquidation actions. Any independent appraiser's fee will be shared equally by the Government
and the Lender.
B. The Government's response to Lender's liquidation plan. The Government will inform the Lender in writing whether it
concurs in the Lender's liquidation plan within 30 days after receipt of such notification from the Lender. If the Government needs
additional time to respond to the liquidation plan, it will advise the Lender of a definite time for such response. 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 opt to conduct the liquidation, the
Government 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.
C. 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.
D. 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. The Lender will transmit to the Government any
payments received from the Borrower and pro rata share of liquidation or other proceeds, etc. when the Government is the holder of a
portion of the guaranteed loan using the appropriate Government form. When the Government liquidates, the Lender will be provided
with similar reports on request.
E. 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.
The appropriate Government form, will be used for calculations of all estimated and final loss determinations. Estimated
loss payments may be approved by the Government after the Lender has submitted a liquidation plan approved by the Government.
Payments will be made in accordance with applicable Government regulations.
2. When the Lender is conducting the liquidation, and owns any of the guaranteed portion of the loan, it may request a
tentative loss estimate by submitting to the Government an estimate of loss that will occur in connection with liquidation of the loan. 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 the appropriate
Government form, 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 send the original Report of loss estimate for issuance of a Treasury check in payment of the estimated amount due the Lender.
After liquidation has been completed, a final loss report will be submitted on the appropriate Government form by the
Lender to the Government.
3.
After the Lender has completed liquidation, the Government upon receipt of the final accounting and report of loss, may
audit and will determine the actual loss. If the Government has any questions regarding the amounts set forth in the final Report of Loss,
it will investigate the matter. The Lender will make its records available to and otherwise assist the Government in making the
investigation. If the Government finds any discrepancies, it will contact the Lender and arrange for the necessary corrections to be made
as soon as possible. When the Government finds the final Report of Loss to be proper in all respects, it will be tentatively approved.
4. 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 send 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 plus
interest at the note rate from date of payment.
5.
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.
6.
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.
F. 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,
loss occasioned by accruing interest (including any loan subsidy) will be covered by the guarantee only to the date the Government
accepts this responsibility. Loss occasioned by accruing interest (including subsidy) will be covered to the extent of the guarantee to the
date of final settlement when the liquidation is conducted by the Lender provided it proceeds expeditiously with the liquidation plan
approved by the Government.

-6G. Application of the 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 the Borrower from liability. At time of final loss settlement the Lender
will notify the Borrower that the loss payment has been so applied. In all cases a final RD Report of Loss prepared and submitted by
the Lender must be processed by the Government in order to close out the files.
H. 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.
I. Liquidation costs. Certain reasonable liquidation costs will be allowed during the liquidation process. The liquidation
cost 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 written concurrence) to be protective
advances. If changed circumstances after submission of the liquidation plan require a revision of liquidation costs, the Lender will
procure the Government's written concurrence prior to proceeding with the proposed changes. No in-house expenses of the Lender
will be allowed. In-house expenses include, but are not limited to, employees' salaries, staff lawyers, travel and overhead.
J. Foreclosure. The parties owning the guaranteed portion and unguaranteed portions of the loan will join the foreclosure
action or, in lieu of foreclosure, to take a deed of conveyance. When the conveyance is received and liquidated, net proceeds will
be applied to the guaranteed loan debt.
K. Payment Such loss will be paid by the Government within 60 days after the review of the accounting of the collateral.
XII. Protective Advances.
Protective advances must constitute an indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender and be secured by the security instrument(s).
The Government written authorization is required on all protective advances that exceed a total cumulative advance amount of $5000
to the same borrower. Protective advances include, but are not limited to advances made for 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.
XIII. Additional Loans or Advances.
The Lender will not make additional expenditures or new loans without first obtaining the written approval of the Government
even though such expenditures or loans will not be guaranteed.
XIV. Future Recovery.
After a loan has been liquidated and a final loss has been paid by the Government any future finds which may be recovered
by the Lender, will be pro-rated between the Government and the Lender. The government will be paid such amount recovered in
proportion to the percentage it guaranteed for the loan and the Lender will retain such amounts in proportion to the percentage of
the unguaranteed portion of the loan.
XV. Transfer and Assumption Cases.
Refer to 7 CFR part 1980 subpart 1.
If a loss should occur upon consummation of a complete transfer and assumption for less than the full amount of the debt
and the transferor-debtor (including personal guarantee) is released from personal liability, the Lender, if it holds the guaranteed
portion, may file an estimated Report of Loss to recover its pro rata share of the actual loss at that time. In completing the Report
of Loss, the amount of the debt assumed will be entered as Net Collateral (Recovery). Approved protective advances and accrued
interest thereon made during the arrangement of a transfer and assumption, if not assumed by the Transfer, also will be entered.
XVI. Bankruptcy.
A. The Lender is responsible for protecting the guaranteed loan debt and all collateral securing the loan in bankruptcy proceedings. When the loan is involved in a reorganization bankruptcy proceeding under Chapters 9, 11, 12 or 13 of the Bankruptcy
Code, payment of loss claims may be made as provided in this paragraph XVI. For a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or liquidation plan in a
Chapter 11 bankruptcy, only paragraphs XVI B3 and B6 are applicable.
B. Loss Payments
1. Estimate Loss Payments
a. If a borrower has filed for protection under a reorganization bankruptcy, the Lender will request a tentative
estimated loss payment of accrued interest and principal written off. This request can only be made after the bankruptcy plan is
confirmed by the court. Only one estimated loss payment is allowed during the reorganization bankruptcy. 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 plan.
b. The Lender will use the appropriate Government form, 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.
c. Upon completion of the reorganization plan, the Lender will complete the appropriate Government form, and
forward it to the Government.
2. Interest Loss Payments.
a. Interest loss payments sustained during the period of the reorganization plan will be processed in accordance
with paragraph XVI B1.
b. Interest loss payments sustained after the reorganization plan is completed will be processed annually when the
Lender sustains a loss as a result of a permanent interest rate reduction which extends beyond the period of the reorganization plan.

(XVI.B.2 - continued)
-7c. The Report of Loss form will be completed to compensate the Lender for the difference in interest rates specified
on the Loan Note Guarantee or Interest Rate Buydown Agreement and the rate of interest specified by the bankruptcy court.
3. Final Loss Payments.
a. Final Loss Payments will be processed when the loan is liquidated.
b. If the loan is paid in full without an additional loss, the Government will close out the estimated loss account at
the time notification of payment in full is received.
4. 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 bankruptcy court attempts
to direct the payments to be applied in a different manner, the Lender will immediately notify the Government's servicing office.
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 plus interest 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 the borrower having filed bankruptcy, as
a result of prior liquidation action, these protective advances and accrued interest will be entered on the Report of Loss form.
XVII. Debt Write-down.
The maximum amount of loss payment associated with a loan which has been written down will not exceed the percent of
the guarantee multiplied by the difference between the outstanding principal and interest balance of the loan before the write-down
and the outstanding balance of the loan after the write-down. The Lender will use the appropriate Government form to request an
estimated loss payment to receive its pro-rata share of any loss sustained.
XVIII. Other Requirements.
This agreement is subject to all the requirements of the applicable subpart of Title 7 CFR part 1980, and any future
amendments of these regulations not inconsistent with this agreement. Interested parties may agree to abide by future Government
regulations not inconsistent with this agreement.
XIX.
Execution of Agreements.
If this agreement is executed prior to the execution of the Loan Note Guarantee, this agreement does not impose any
obligation upon the Government with respect to the execution of such contract. The Government in no way warrants that such a
contract has been or will be executed.
XX.
