2.    Advances, Fees and Notice.

2.01    Advances. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may borrow Loan proceeds for an approved Loan Purpose on any Business Day during the Commitment Period, in an amount not to exceed the Available Principal Commitment on such date. The “Available Principal Commitment” in effect is the Total Commitment Amount as of the date of this Note, and on any given date thereafter equals the difference between (a) the Total Commitment Amount on such date, and (b) the unpaid principal balances of all Loan Segments on such date. This is not a revolving loan. Once Loan principal has been borrowed and repaid, it may not be reborrowed.

2.02    Loan Fees. Borrower shall pay Lender an unused commitment fee during the Commitment Period, calculated based on the unused commitment fee that corresponds to Borrower’s Pricing Level as of the most recent Calculation Date, multiplied by the average daily Available Principal Commitment calculated quarterly in arrears on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed for the actual number of days in the year until the Commitment Expiration Date.  The unused commitment fee shall be due on the first day of the next quarter and on the first day of each quarter thereafter. The unused commitment fee described in this Paragraph 2.02 shall terminate on the Commitment Expiration Date. Borrower shall also pay Loan fees as set forth in a separate loan fee letter.

2.03    Notice of Prepayment and Pricing.

a.    Prepayment of Principal. Borrower shall provide Lender with Notice of the amount of any prepayment of a Fixed Rate Loan Segment no later than 10:00 a.m. Spokane time one Business Day prior to the Business Day the prepayment will be made.

b.    Pricing. Borrower shall provide Lender irrevocable Notice of pricing of a Loan Segment using a Fixed Rate Option by 10:00 a.m. Spokane time on the Pricing Date.

c.    Form of Notice. Borrower may provide Lender any Notice required under this Note by use of the notice in form substantially as set forth on Exhibit A hereto or other documentation as may be prescribed by Lender. Alternatively, Borrower may telephone Lender at the numbers designated on Exhibit A or as may be provided by Lender from time to time. If Notice is by telephone, Lender will confirm to Borrower the elected prepayment or pricing in writing. All such Notices are deemed irrevocable when given and are subject to Breakage Fees.

3.    Interest Rate and Pricing Elections.

3.01    LIBOR Variable Base. The “Base Rate” is the LIBOR Variable Base. The “LIBOR Variable Base” for any day during a given month means the one-month LIBOR rate, as made available by the LIBOR Index Source, rounded up to the nearest .05 percent, plus the Applicable Margin. The LIBOR Variable Base shall be effective on the first day of the month and remain constant for such month. The Applicable Margin used to determine the Base Rate on the Applicable Margin Reset Date shall be determined by Lender in its sole discretion using its then applicable standards for establishing an interest rate spread. Lender will endeavor to notify Borrower of the Applicable Margin that will be effective on the Applicable Margin Reset Date within thirty (30) days of each Applicable Margin Reset Date, but the Applicable Margin shall apply as of such Applicable Margin Reset Date whether such notice is given by Lender or received by Borrower.

3.02    1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, 9- or 10-Year Fixed Rate Options. A Fixed Rate Loan Segment may be priced with a fixed rate equal to the 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, 9- or 10-year Fixed Rate Options, as defined herein, plus the Applicable Margin. With these Fixed Rate Options, (a) rates may be fixed for Interest Periods, as defined herein, of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10; and (b) rates may only be fixed on a Pricing Date to take effect on such Pricing Date. For purposes hereof: (i) the “1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, 9- and 10-year Fixed Rate Options” shall mean the rate equal to the Rate Pricing Index for such period, rounded to the nearest .01 percent, as made available by the Lender on the Pricing Date; and (ii) “Interest Period” shall mean a period commencing on the Pricing Date and ending on the Fixed Rate Maturity Date. The Fixed Rate Maturity Date for a given Fixed Rate Option shall be the corresponding 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, 9- or 10-year anniversary of the first day of the month following the Pricing Date if the Pricing Date is not the first day of a month or the corresponding anniversary of the Pricing Date if such Pricing Date is the first day of a month.

3.03    Pricing Elections. Upon irrevocable Notice to Lender in accordance with Paragraph 2.03 above, as to principal (i) in the amount of an advance, (ii)  in the Base Rate Loan Segment, or (iii) in a Fixed Rate Loan Segment on a Fixed Rate Maturity Date, Borrower may elect to designate all or any part of the advance or of the principal amount of such Loan Segment on such Pricing Date to bear interest at any Rate Option described herein; provided however, that (1) there is no Event of Default, (2) Borrower shall price Loan principal in Fixed Rate Loan Segments in initial minimum principal amounts of $5,000,000, (3) no Fixed Rate Option may be selected which would have for its Fixed Rate Maturity Date a date later than the Loan Maturity Date and (4) there are no more than five Fixed Rate Loan Segments at any one time. If Borrower does not provide Lender irrevocable Notice of election of a Rate Option on a Fixed Rate Maturity Date for a Fixed Rate Loan Segment, the principal amount of such Loan Segment will be priced at the Base Rate effective on such Pricing Date.

3.04    Single Base Rate Loan Segment. If on a Pricing Date, any Loan Segment is priced under the Base Rate resulting in more than one Loan Segment priced under the Base Rate, all Loan principal priced under

the Base Rate will be treated as a single Base Rate Loan Segment by combining the principal amount of such Loan Segments on such Pricing Date.

3.05    Interest Rates. The interest rates used herein do not necessarily represent the lowest rates charged by Lender on its loans. The interest rates described herein are per annum rates. Interest rates using the LIBOR Index Source are calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed for a 360 day year. Interest rates using any other Index are calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during the year for the actual number of days in the year.

3.06    Index or Index Source. If any Index or Index Source provided for herein cannot be ascertained during the Note term, Lender will choose a new Index or Index Source which it determines, in its reasonable discretion, is comparable to be effective upon notification thereof to Borrower.

3.07    Additional Pricing Options. In the event Borrower should desire to price a Loan Segment using an Index, Pricing Date and margin other than as provided for herein, Borrower may request Lender to quote a rate and lock-in fee for an identified principal amount and desired pricing option. Lender will provide Borrower such a quote if available under Lender’s then existing policies and procedures, and shall provide Borrower the option to elect such a rate upon payment of the lock-in fee, if required, which rate shall be effective on the Pricing Date for the Loan Segment, upon terms and conditions and within timeframes as Lender may prescribe at the time of the quote.

4.    Payment.

4.01    Interest Payments. Borrower shall make quarterly interest only payments on the first day of each Quarter beginning January 1, 2019, or the first day of the next Quarter as Lender shall determine, which payments shall consist of interest that accrued during such prior period on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan Segment.

4.02    Payment in Full on Loan Maturity Date. The unpaid principal balance, unpaid interest thereon, and other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents shall be paid in full on the Loan Maturity Date.

4.03    Application of Payments. Lender may apply any payment received from or on behalf of Borrower to principal, interest, or any part of the indebtedness, including any fees and expenses due under this Note or any other Loan Document, as Lender, in its sole discretion, may choose. Subject to the preceding sentence, Borrower may at any time pay any amount of principal in advance of its maturity subject to the Prepayment Fee described herein.

5.    Prepayment and Breakage Fees.

5.01    Prepayment Fee.

a.    Prepayment. As used herein, “Prepayment” shall mean any instance wherein the indebtedness herein is partially or fully paid in any manner prior to a payment due date, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. Prepayment shall include, but not be limited to: (i) any payment after an Event of Default under the Loan Documents; (ii) any payment to Lender by any holder of an interest in any Collateral; (iii) any payment after the Loan Maturity Date is accelerated for any reason; (iv) any payment resulting from any sale or transfer of Collateral pursuant to foreclosure, sale under power, judicial order or trustee’s sale; (v) any payment by any person which reduces the principal amount of the Loan (excluding scheduled payments) prior to the Loan Maturity Date; and (vi) any payment by sale, transfer or offsetting credit in connection

with or under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or receivership or similar proceedings under any statute of the United States or any state thereof involving Borrower and/or the Collateral. In the event of any acceleration of the Loan Maturity Date, the amount due hereunder shall include the Prepayment Fee in the event of a voluntary Prepayment at the time of such acceleration, and the date of acceleration of the Loan Maturity Date will be deemed to be the date of Prepayment.

b.    Prepayment Fee. As used herein, the “Prepayment Fee” is an amount intended to reasonably compensate Lender for the loss of the intended benefit of Lender’s bargain in the case of a Prepayment. Borrower and Lender intend that the principal balance of the Loan will yield to Lender an annual return after the date the Loan is prepaid of not less than the annual return for the period when the interest rate is fixed. In the event of a Prepayment, Lender will lose the intended benefit of its bargain. Accordingly, the Prepayment Fee is intended to reasonably compensate Lender for such loss and costs. The Prepayment Fee shall be payable on demand, and shall be an amount calculated on a make-whole basis, as determined under Lender’s then current methodology. The Prepayment Fee, if any, payable under this Paragraph 5.01, shall be added to the balance of the Loan as of the date of acceleration and may be included in any credit bid by Lender at a foreclosure sale. The Lender shall not be obligated to accept any Prepayment, unless it is accompanied by the Prepayment Fee due in connection therewith.

c.    Exceptions to Prepayment Fee. If interest upon all or a portion of the Loan is determined at the Base Rate, that portion of the Loan may be prepaid, in part or in whole, at any time, and from time to time, without the payment of a Prepayment Fee. All other Prepayments shall be subject to a Prepayment Fee.

d.    ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PREPAYMENT FEE OBLIGATION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT UNDERSTANDS THAT A PREPAYMENT MAY RESULT IN A SUBSTANTIAL PREPAYMENT FEE. BORROWER CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH ITS LEGAL, FINANCIAL AND OTHER COUNSEL, AND HAS MADE THE DECISION TO ENTER INTO THIS LOAN SUBJECT TO THE PREPAYMENT FEE IN RELIANCE ONLY UPON ITS LEGAL, FINANCIAL AND OTHER COUNSEL AND NOT UPON LENDER, ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR AFFILIATES

5.02    Breakage Fee. In the event of an occurrence under subparagraph a. or b. below, then Borrower shall immediately pay Lender, on demand, a “Breakage Fee” in an amount calculated on a make-whole basis, as determined under Lender’s then current methodology:

a.    Borrower provides Lender Notice that Loan principal is to be priced using a LIBOR Variable Base, after which Borrower revokes such Notice; or

b.    Borrower provides Lender Notice that Loan principal priced under a LIBOR Variable Base is to be repriced or prepaid on other than a Pricing Date, after which Borrower revokes such Notice or fails to prepay pursuant to the Notice.

5.03    Participation. Participant(s), if any, may calculate a Prepayment Fee or Breakage Fee on a make-whole basis using a different methodology than Lender.

6.    Default.

6.01    Events of Default. Time is of the essence in the performance of this Note. The occurrence of any one or more of the Events of Default in Section 8.01 of the Master Loan Agreement shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note.

6.02    Acceleration. In the event of any uncured Event of Default beyond any applicable cure periods provided for in the Loan Documents, at Lender’s option, without notice or demand, the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts due shall immediately become due and payable and bear interest thereafter at the per annum rate in effect at the time of acceleration.

6.03    Notice and Opportunity to Cure. Any notice and opportunity to cure shall be administered in accordance with Section 8.02 of the Master Loan Agreement.

7.    Loan Terms, Provisions and Covenants. This Note is subject to the terms, provisions and covenants of the Loan Agreement, and Borrower’s obligations hereunder are secured by a lien and security interest in Property as described in the Loan Agreement.

8.    Miscellaneous.

8.01    Funds Management Services. Lender may provide funds management services to Borrower. Borrower shall comply with all funds management service agreements during the term of this Note. All fees incurred shall be considered a request for an advance under this Note. The funds management services and fees may be adjusted upon reasonable notice.

8.02    Governing Law. The substantive laws of the State of Washington shall apply to govern the construction of the Loan Documents and the rights and remedies of the parties except where the location of the Collateral for the Loan may require the application of the laws of another state or where federal laws, including the Farm Credit Act of 1971, as amended, may be applicable.

8.03    General Provisions. Borrower waives presentment for payment, demand, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest and diligence in enforcing payment of this Note. This Note and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender and supersede all prior oral negotiations and promises which are merged into such writings. Upon written agreement of the parties, the interest rate, payment terms or balances due under this Note may be indexed, adjusted, renewed or renegotiated. Lender shall not be obligated to renew the Note or any part thereof or to make additional or future loans to Borrower. All Exhibits hereto are incorporated herein and made a part of this Note. This Note may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Borrower agrees that the Note described herein shall be in default should any proceeds be used for a purpose that will contribute to excessive erosion of highly erodible land or to the conversion of wetlands to produce or to make possible the production of an agricultural commodity, as further explained in 7 CFR Part 12.

8.04    Waiver of Jury Trial. BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LOAN DOCUMENT AND ANY FUTURE MODIFICATIONS, AMENDMENTS, EXTENSIONS, RESTATEMENTS AND SERVICING ACTIONS RELATING TO THIS LOAN DOCUMENT. THE PARTIES INTEND THAT THIS JURY WAIVER WILL BE ENFORCED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW.
