8.2. Use of Trade Name. Commencing on the Closing Date, the Seller shall cease using the Trade Name as a company name, or trade name.

8.3. Non-Competition. The Purchaser, Forsbergs, and Seller agree that the Purchase Price is fixed on the basis that the transfer of the Transferred Assets to the Purchaser would provide the Purchaser with the full benefit and goodwill of the Seller as it existed on the Closing Date, provided, however, that the Purchaser understands that the Seller’s working relationships with all of its distributors, sales representatives, and customers are to a large extent personal to the Forsbergs, and no guarantees can be made by Seller or Forsbergs that Purchaser will enjoy the same relations. The Seller and Forsbergs acknowledge that it is proper for the Purchaser to have assurance that the value of the Transferred Assets will not be diminished by acts of the Seller or Forsbergs after the Closing Date. Accordingly, the Seller and Forsbergs covenant and agree that, commencing on the Closing Date and ending five years from the Closing Date, it will not, within a 100 mile radius of the City of Kellogg, Shoshone County, Idaho (i) directly or indirectly compete with, or own, manage, operate, or control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or provide consulting services to, any business, firm, corporation, partnership, person, proprietorship or other entity which is conducting any business which competes with the business of the Seller as constituted on the Closing Date (the “Restricted Business”), (ii) directly or indirectly solicit employment by any person, partnership, corporation or other entity of any of the employees, consultants, agents, or independent contractors of the Seller (for this purpose the terms “employees”, “consultants”, “agents”, and “independent contractors” shall include any persons having such status with regard to the Seller at any time during the six (6) months preceding any solicitation in question), or (iii) solicit, interfere with, or endeavor to entice away from the Seller, on behalf of any person, partnership, corporation, or other entity, any customer of the Restricted Business of the Seller. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to investments in shares of stock of Purchaser or of a corporation traded on a national securities exchange or on the national over-the-counter market. If the Seller commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of this Section 8.3, the Purchaser shall have the right and remedy, in addition to any others, to have the provisions of this Section 8.3 specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, together with an accounting therefor, it being acknowledged and understood by the Seller that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Purchaser and that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy therefor.

5. As additional security, Grantor hereby gives to and confers upon Beneficiary the right, power and authority, during the continuance of this Deed of Trust, to collect the rents, issues and profits of said property, reserving unto Grantor the right, prior to any default by Grantor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in performance of any agreement hereunder, to collect and retain such rents, issues and profits as they become due and payable.

6. Upon default by Grantor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in performance of any agreement hereunder, all sums secured hereby shall immediately become due and payable at the option of the Beneficiary. In the event of default, Beneficiary shall execute or cause the Trustee to execute a written notice of such default and of its

-3-

election to cause to be sold the herein described property to satisfy the obligations hereof, and shall cause such notice to be recorded in the office of the recorder of each county wherein said real property or some part thereof is situated.

Notice of sale having been given as then required by law, and not less than the time then required by law having elapsed, Trustee, without demand on Grantor, shall sell said property at the time and place fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale.

After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Trust, including cost of evidence of title and reasonable counsel fees in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at legal rate; all other sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

7. This Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors and assigns. The term Beneficiary shall mean the holder and owner of the Notes secured hereby; or, if either or both Notes have been pledged, the pledgee thereof. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural.

8. Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other Deed of Trust or of any action or proceeding in which Grantor, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.

9. In the event of a dissolution or resignation of the Trustee, the Beneficiary may substitute a trustee or trustees to execute the trust hereby created, and when any such substitution has been filed for record in the office of the Recorder of the county in which the property herein described is situated, it shall be conclusive evidence of the appointment of such trustee or trustees, and such new trustee or trustees shall succeed to all of the powers and duties of the trustee or trustees named herein.

10. Grantor and Beneficiary, the language of this Deed of Trust to the contrary notwithstanding, agree as follows:

This Deed of Trust is subject and subordinate to a deed of trust dated ______________ and recorded under recording number ___________, records of the County of Shoshone County, State of Idaho, in favor of Mountain West Bank to secure the payment of a note in the original principal amount of $1,100,000.00. This Deed of Trust and the Notes are referred to below for convenience as “Underlying Deed of Trust” and “Underlying Note”, respectively.

-4-

This Deed of Trust is an “all inclusive” Deed of Trust securing “all inclusive” Notes, the original principal balances of which includes the balance of the Underlying Note and the Underlying Deed of Trust more fully described above.

Grantor agrees to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Underlying Deed of Trust and Underlying Note (other than with respect to the payment of interest and principal due under the Underlying Note) and shall immediately comply with any notice sent to it by the holder of the Underlying Note without regard to any grace period, if any, and Grantor’s failure to do so shall constitute a default under this Deed of Trust. Any default under this Deed of Trust shall entitle Beneficiary to exercise, at its option, anyone or more of the following remedies, in addition to any other remedies provided herein:

(1)

To declare the two Notes secured hereby immediately due and payable in full upon demand;

(2)

To judicially or nonjudicially foreclose this Deed of Trust;

(3)

To perform such terms and conditions as are in default;

(4)

To purchase, discharge, compromise or settle the indebtedness secured by the Underlying Deed of Trust or any other lien or encumbrance superior to this Deed of Trust, including liens for taxes and assessments.

In the event that Beneficiary so elects to make any payment for any of the purposes herein authorized and/or perform any act upon which Grantor has defaulted, then, at the option of Beneficiary, all monies so paid and all costs and expenses incurred thereby, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, may be added to the debts which are secured by this Deed of Trust and bear penalty interest as specified in the Notes, or all monies so paid and all costs and expenses incurred thereby, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, may be declared immediately due and payable and such sums shall bear interest at the penalty rate specified in the Notes until paid, and Grantor’s failure to reimburse Beneficiary upon demand therefor shall constitute a further event of default under this Deed of Trust.

(1)

Provided either or both of Grantor’s Notes are in default under the terms of this Deed of Trust or of any Note secured hereby and provided further that Grantor is in compliance with all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Underlying Deed of Trust and Underlying Note other than with respect to the payment of principal and interest due under the Underlying Note and provided further all payments required under the Notes and hereunder are timely made, Beneficiary will apply the funds received from Grantor as monthly payments upon the Notes secured by this Deed of Trust, to pay the principal and/or interest payments due each month to the holder of the Underlying Note according to the terms thereof.

(2)

Beneficiary does not assume any of the obligations of Grantor under the Underlying Note and Underlying Deed of Trust except as specifically herein provided and shall not be obligated to make payments to the holder of the Underlying

-5-

Note in the event Grantor fails to make payment to Beneficiary as provided in the Notes and this Deed of Trust, or in the event payments received by Beneficiary are charged back as uncollected. This partial assumption is for the benefit of the parties hereto only, their successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of the holder of the Underlying Note or for the benefit of any other party, whether as third party beneficiary or otherwise.

(3)

Grantor covenants not to make any payments whatsoever directly to the holder of the Underlying Note and Underlying Deed of Trust, including any prepayment, or request any release, partial release, amendment or other modifications of the Underlying Note or Underlying Deed of Trust without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, its successors and assigns. Grantor agrees to pay to Beneficiary, its successors and assigns, any installments of reserves and all other sums, other than principal and interest, required to be paid to the holder of the Underlying Note and Underlying Deed of Trust at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due dates thereunder.

(4)

If Grantor shall default in making any required payment of principal and/or interest upon the Underlying Note, Beneficiary shall have the right to advance the funds necessary to cure such default, and all funds so advanced, together with interest at twelve percent (12%) per annum, shall be credited against the next installment of interest and principal due under the two Notes secured by this Deed of Trust.

Any provision of this Deed of Trust to the contrary notwithstanding, any demand for sale delivered to Trustee for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, any and complaint for judicial foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, shall be reduced by such unpaid balances, if any, of principal, interest and charges existing upon the Underlying Note at the time of sale upon such foreclosure, satisfactory evidence of which unpaid balance must be submitted prior to sale.

Grantor will furnish to Beneficiary, upon demand, proof of payment of all items (including, without limitation, real estate taxes and insurance premiums) which are required to be paid by Grantor pursuant to the Underlying Deed of Trust and any other proof of payment which is required to be given under the Underlying Deed of Trust.

Grantor shall execute and deliver, on request of Beneficiary, such instruments deemed useful or necessary to permit Beneficiary to cure any default under the Underlying Note or Underlying Deed of Trust or to preserve the interest of Beneficiary thereunder.

Grantor covenants and agrees that this Deed of Trust shall be deemed to include, without the necessity of full repetition herein, all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Underlying Deed of Trust. A default under this Deed of Trust shall constitute, ipso facto, a default under the Underlying Deed of Trust so that in the event that Beneficiary elects to exercise the remedy herein given of taking an assignment of the Underlying Deed of Trust it will be entitled to foreclose the remaining indebtedness on both the Underlying Deed of Trust and this Deed of Trust. In the event of a conflict between the terms, provisions and conditions of the Underlying Deed of Trust with the

-6-

terms, provisions and conditions of this Deed of Trust, the terms, provisions and conditions of this Deed of Trust shall prevail and control.

Request is hereby made that a copy of any Notice of Default and a copy of any Notice of Sale hereunder be mailed to the Grantor at its address hereinbefore set forth.

SCHEDULE 2.17

DISCLOSURE OF NON-CONFORMITY WITH BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PERMITS

When the newest addition (tallest portion) to the welding shop located on the Real Property was constructed during 1999, as conditions of the Business Development Permit (building permit) approved by the City of Kellogg Planning and Zoning Department on February 16, 1999 (a copy of which is attached), Seller and/or Forsbergs were required to install slats in its existing chain link fence across the front of the Real Property (along the southern edge of the Real Property running parallel to Sliver Valley Road), construct a sidewalk or paved path across the front of the property (along the southern edge of the Real Property running parallel to Sliver Valley Road) within five years from approval of the building permit with all adjacent landowners, and plant and maintain new landscaping (trees). Trees were planted and have been maintained; however, to date, Seller and/or Forsbergs have neither installed slats in the fence nor constructed said paved path or sidewalk, but an occupancy permit was nonetheless issued following completion of construction of the addition to the building. Currently, there is no sidewalk or paved path adjacent to the Real Property that would connect into a sidewalk or paved path built along the southern edge of the Real Property, including adjacent property on which Dave Smith Motors Operates. Neither Seller nor Forsbergs have had any communications with the City of Kellogg Planning and Zoning Commission regarding its failure to install slats in its existing chain link fence or failure to construct a paved path or sidewalk along the Real Property.

When a permit for expanded use was applied for by one of the Seller’s and/or Frosbergs’ tenants, as conditions of the Business Development Permit (expanded use permit) approved by the City of Kellogg Planning and Zoning Department for expansion of the use of the current paint shed on the Real Property to include a truck and car repair business operated by a former tenant on June 24, 1999 (a copy of which is attached), Forsbergs and/or Tenant were required to preserve existing trees, construct a sidewalk within 4 years of approval of the permit, and install adequate site lighting for the security of their patrons, property, and employees. While Seller and Forsbergs have preserved existing trees, no sidewalk has been constructed. Currently, there is no sidewalk or paved path adjacent to the Real Property that would connect into a sidewalk or paved path built along the southern edge of the Real Property, including adjacent property on which Dave Smith Motors Operates. Neither Seller nor Forsbergs have had any communications with the City of Kellogg Planning and Zoning Commission regarding its failure to construct a sidewalk along the Real Properly since August 2, 2004 (a copy of the letter received by Seller and Forsbergs on that date is attached hereto).
