and each due and payable on the dates, set forth on Exhibit A hereto.  The
undersigned also promises to pay to the Payee interest on the unpaid principal
balance hereof in like money at the rates of interest, at the times, and
calculated in the manner set forth in the “Supplement” and the “Master Loan
Agreement” (both as hereinafter defined).  For purposes hereof, the term: (1)
“Supplement” shall mean that certain Supplement dated as of June 30, 2016, and
numbered ML0976T3, as such Supplement may be amended or restated from time to
time; (2) “Master Loan Agreement” shall mean that certain Second Amended and
Restated Master Loan Agreement dated June 30, 2016, and numbered 000976A, as
that agreement may be amended or restated from time to time.

﻿

Subject to the payment of a premium calculated in accordance with Section 10.01
of the Master Loan Agreement and/or the payment of fees in accordance with
Section 11(D) of the Supplement, as applicable, the Maker may prepay this
Promissory Note in whole or in part as provided in the Supplement.  All partial
prepayments shall be applied in the manner set forth in the Supplement.

﻿

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or the Master Loan Agreement: (1) if
any date on which principal or interest is due is not a Business Day, then such
payment shall be made on the next Business Day and interest on any principal
amount not paid on the original due date shall continue to accrue until such
payment is made; (2) if any interest or principal is not paid when due, then
such payment shall be due and payable on demand; and (3) upon the occurrence of
an “Event of Default” (as defined in the Master Loan Agreement) until such Event
of Default shall have been waived or cured in a manner satisfactory to CoBank,
interest shall accrue at 4% per annum in excess of the rate(s) of interest that
would otherwise be in effect.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

﻿

Payments on this Promissory Note shall be made as provided in Section 2.03 of
the Master Loan Agreement.  The Maker agrees that the Payee shall not be
obligated to present this Promissory Note for payment.

﻿

This Promissory Note is given to evidence the loan made by the Payee to the
Maker under the Supplement and, to the extent related to the Supplement, the
Master Loan Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein
shall have the meanings given to those terms in the Master Loan Agreement.

﻿

This Promissory Note is secured as provided in Section 2.04 of the Master Loan
Agreement.

﻿

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Master Loan Agreement, the
principal amount hereof, together with accrued interest hereon, any premium
owing under Section 10.01 of the Master Loan Agreement and any fee owing under
Section 10(D) of the Supplement, may be declared to be due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Master Loan Agreement.

﻿

The Payee will keep a record of: (A) the unpaid principal balance hereof; (B)
the interest rate elections and interest rates applicable to the unpaid
principal balance hereof and the effective dates of all changes thereto; (C) all
fees and expenses due and payable hereunder; and (D) the date and amount of all
principal, interest, and fees paid by the Maker.  To the extent permitted by
applicable Law, such record (and all computer printouts thereof) shall be
presumed correct absent manifest error as to the obligations of the Maker
therein recorded; provided that the failure of Payee to maintain such record, or
any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company
to repay (with applicable interest) any loan in accordance with the terms of
this Note, the Supplement, and the Master Loan Agreement.

﻿

The Maker hereby waives presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice of
dishonor and nonpayment of this Promissory Note, and all defenses on the grounds
of delay or of any extension of time for the payment hereof which may be
hereafter given by the holder or holders hereof, and it is specifically agreed
that the obligations of the Maker shall not be affected or altered to the
prejudice of the holder or holders hereof by reason of the assumption of payment
of the same by any other person or entity.

﻿

Except to the extent governed by applicable Federal law, this Promissory Note
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Alaska, without reference to choice of law doctrine.
