Thereafter, Borrower will pay to Lender monthly payments of accrued, unpaid Interest due as of each payment date, beginning on November 26, 2021 with all subsequent payments to be due on the same day of each month after that until the Note Is paid in full provided however, that any Interest that accrues pursuant to the "INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT'' paragraph below (i) prior to October 26, 2021 shall be payable on such date, and (II) at any time on or after October 26, 2021 shall be payable on demand. Borrower shall not be required to make any principal payments under this Note during the two (2) years Immediately followlng the date of this Note. Thereafter, Borrower shall pay the principal balance of this Note as follows: Principal Payment 1. Borrower will pay to Lender a principal payment on October 26, 2023 which shall be equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the original principal balance of the Note. For purposes of this Note, "original principal balance of this Note" shall mean the principal balance of the Note as Increased by any capitalized Interest hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, all capitalized Interest hereunder shall accrue Interest and be payable as described in this paragraph as though it were part of the original principal balance of the Note.

Principal Payment 3. Borrower will pay to Lender a principal payment on October 26, 2025 ("Maturity Oaten) which shall be equal to seventy percent (70%) of the original principal balance of the Note. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied to accrued unpaid interest; then to unpaid principal; then to late charges and other charges. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate In writing. VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The Interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the 3 Month LIBOR rate. Lender's LIBOR rate is to be strictly Interpreted and is not intended to serve any purpose other than providing an index to determine the Interest rate used herein. Lender's LIBOR rate may not necessarily be the same as the quoted offered side in the Eurodollar time deposit market by any particular Institution or service applicable to any Interest period. As used herein, Lender's LIBOR rate shall mean the rates per annum quoted by Lender as Lender's 3 Month LIBOR rate based upon quotes from the London Interbank Offered Rate from the ICE Benchmark Administration Interest Settlement Rates, as quoted for U.S. Dollars by Bloomberg, or other comparable services selected by the Lender (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower's request. The Interest rate change will not occur more often than each three months. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently Is 0.215% per annum. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be calculated as described in the "INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD" paragraph using a rate of 3.000 percentage points over the Index (the "Margin"), resulting in an initial rate of 3.215% per annum based on a year of 360 days. If the Interest Rate is calculated with any LIBOR or LIBOR/Swap rate index, if Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that the LIBOR base rate ("LIBOR Index") (i) has been or Imminently will be discontinued, (ii) is no longer an industry-accepted reference rate for loans of a similar type to the Loan and/or has been superseded by an alternative reference rate, or (iii) is no longer representative or may not be used pursuant to a public statement by the administrator of the LIBOR Index or other regulatory authority (e.g., the Federal Reserve), in each case with respect to any type of loan or transaction, then Lender may select an alternative reference rate, which may reflect adjustments to the related spread or margin (collectively, the "Substitute Index Rate"), to be used in lieu of the LIBOR-based Interest rate set forth in the Note and/or this Agreement (the "Pre-Substitute Rate0). Lender and Borrower acknowledge that the discontinuation of the LIBOR Index is a future event over which neither Lender nor Borrower has influence but which will necessarily affect the Pre-Substitute Rate. Accordingly, Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select a Substitute Index Rate that Lender in good faith believes is a practical means of preserving the parties' intent relative to the economics of the Pre-Substitute Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that, initially and/or over time, the Substitute Index Rate will differ from the Pre-Substitute Rate. In selecting the Substitute Index Rate, Lender shall consider to what extent and the manner in which industry-accepted substitutes for the LIBOR Index have been established, and the parties acknowledge that different Substitute Index Rates may be selected for different types of loans and transactions. Borrower agrees that Lender shall not be liable in any manner for its selection of a Substitute Index Rate, provided that Lender makes such selection in good faith. The Substitute Index Rate shall be used in lieu of the Pre-Substitute Rate, and all references in this Note to the Pre-Substitute Rate shall be deemed to refer to the Substitute Index Rate, effective as of the date specified by Lender in a written notice given by Lender to Borrower. To the extent practicable, such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the effective date. The Substitute Index Rate shall remain in effect from the effective date set forth in such notice until the Maturity Date, as such may be extended, unless such an instance occurs where the Substitute Index Rate is no longer available, in which case the provisions of this section will again apply for purposes of replacing the Substitute Index Rate. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Whenever increases occur in the Interest rate, Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the following: (A) increase Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay off by its original final maturity date, (B) increase





CL Transaction No: NSB ###-###-#### PROMISSORY NOTE (Continued) Page 2 Borrower's payments to cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower's payments, and (D) continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final payment. INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note Is computed on a 365/360 basis; that Is, by applying the ratio of the Interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All Interest payable under this Note Is computed using this method. This calculation method results In a higher effective Interest rate than the numeric Interest rate stated In this Note. PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. Except for the foregoing, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid in full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes "payment In full" of the amount owed or that Is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Zions Bancorporation, N.A. dba Nevada State Bank, Enterprise Loan Operations, UT-RDWG-1970, PO Box 27181 Salt Lake City, UT 84127-0181. MAIN STREET LOAN PREPAYMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the PREPAYMENT paragraph or in this Note, any amount(s) prepaid by Borrower shall be applied to the succeeding principal payment(s) due under this Note. INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, the interest rate on this Note shall be increased by adding an additional 3.000 percentage point margin ("Default Rate Margin"). The Default Rate Margin shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no default. However, in no event will the interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate limitations under applicable law. DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default") under this Note: Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this Note. Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the related documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.

This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute. Events Affecting Guarantor.

An arbitrator shall have no authority to determine matters (i) regarding the validity, enforceability, meaning, or scope of this Dispute Resolution Provision, or (ii) class action claims brought by either party as a class representative on behalf of others and claims by a class representative on either party's behalf as a class member, which matters may be determined only by a court without a jury.

("JAMS") ("Administrator") as selected by the initiating party. However, if the parties agree, arbitration may be commenced by appointment of a licensed attorney who is selected by the parties and who agrees to conduct the arbitration without an Administrator. If NAF and JAMS both decline to administer arbitration of the Dispute, and if the parties are unable to mutually agree upon a licensed attorney to act as arbitrator with an Administrator, then either party may file a lawsuit (in a court of appropriate venue outside the state of California) and move for an Arbitration Order. The arbitrator, howsoever appointed, shall have expertise in the subject matter of the Dispute.

If the terms of this Section 2 vary from the Administrator's rules, this Section 2 shall control. SECTION 3. JUDICIAL REFERENCE IF J U RY WAIVER UNENFORCEABLE (CALIFORNIA ONLY). If (but only if) a Dispute is filed in a state or federal court located within the state of California, and said court determines for any reason that the jury trial waiver in this Dispute Resolution Provision is not enforceable with respect to that Dispute, then any party hereto may require that Dispute be resolved by judicial reference in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure, Sections 638, . including without limitation whether the Dispute is subject to a judicial reference proceeding. By agreeing to resolve Plspytes by Judicial reference each party 1s giving up any right that party may have to a jury trial The referee shall be a retired judge, agreed upon by the parties, from either the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service, Inc. (JAMS). If the parties cannot agree on the referee, the party who initially selected the reference procedure shall request a panel of ten retired judges from either AAA or JAMS, and the court shall select the referee from that panel. (If AAA and JAMS are unavailable to provide this service, the court may select a referee by such other procedures as are used by that court.) The referee shall be appointed to sit with all of the powers provided by law, including the power to hear and determine any or all of the issues in the proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and to report a statement of decision. The parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the judicial reference proceeding set forth herein.

Nothing herein shall preclude a party from moving (prior to the court ordering judicial reference) to dismiss, stay or transfer the suit to a forum outside California on grounds that California is an improper, inconvenient or less suitable venue. If such motion is granted, this Section 3 shall not apply to any proceedings in the new forum. This Section 3 may be invoked only with regard to Disputes filed in state or federal courts located in the State of California. In no event shall the provisions in this Section 3 diminish the force or effect of any venue selection or jurisdiction provision in this Agreement or any Related Document. SECTION 4. Reliance. Each party (i) certifies that no one has represented to such party that the other party would not seek to enforce a jury waiver, class action waiver, arbitration provision or judicial reference provision in the event of suit, and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other party have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, material reliance upon the mutual waivers, agreements, and certifications in the four Sections of this DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION.
