 Periods selected in accordance with Subsections 4(A)(2), 4(A)(3)
 and 4(A)(4) of this Second Supplement. Except for the initial
 selection, all interest rate selections provided for herein shall be made by
 telephonic or written request of an authorized employee of the Borrower by
 12:00 noon, Central time, on the relevant day. In taking actions upon
 telephonic requests, CoBank shall be entitled to rely on (and shall incur no
 liability to the Borrower in acting upon) any request made by a person
 identifying himself or herself as one of the persons authorized by the
 Borrower to request the Loan or select interest rates hereunder so long as
 any funds advanced are wired to an account previously designated by the
 Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
 rates may not be fixed in such a manner as to cause the Borrower to have to
 break any fixed rate balance in order to pay any installment of principal.

The LIBOR
Margin shall be (i) increased, if warranted, beginning on the date which is the
fifth Business Day following CoBanks receipt of the financial statements
required pursuant to Subsections 8(H)(1) and 8(H)(2) of the MLA, and the
compliance certificate required pursuant to Subsection 8(H)(9) of the MLA and
(ii) decreased, if warranted, beginning on the date which is the fifth Business
Day following CoBanks receipt of such financial statements and compliance
certificate and the Borrowers written request to decrease such margin (each
such date described in (i) and (ii), an Adjustment
Date). In the event that CoBank shall not receive when due such
financial statements and compliance certificate, then from such due date and
until the fifth Business Day following CoBanks receipt of such overdue
financial statements and compliance certificate (and in the event a decrease in
the applicable margin is then warranted, receipt of the Borrowers written
request to decrease such margin), or upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, then at the option of CoBank the LIBOR Margin shall be 2.50%.

(C) Payment and Calculation. The Borrower
shall pay interest on the Loan monthly in arrears on the 20th day (or such
other day as CoBank shall elect in writing) of each month, upon any prepayment
of a fixed rate Portion (whether due to acceleration or otherwise) and on the
Maturity Date; provided, however, at the election of CoBank with
respect to the Portions accruing interest under the LIBOR option, rather than
on a monthly basis interest shall be payable at the maturity of an Interest
Period, or, if such Interest Period exceeds three months, in arrears on each
three-month anniversary of the beginning date of such Interest Period and at
the maturity of such Portion and upon any prepayment (whether due to
acceleration or otherwise). Interest shall be calculated on the actual number
of days the Loan, or any part thereof, is outstanding on the basis of a year
consisting of 360 days. In calculating accrued interest, the date the Loan is
made shall be included and the date any principal amount of the Loan is repaid
or prepaid shall be excluded as to such amount. If any date for the payment of

6

Supplement to the Master Loan Agreement/New Ulm Telecom, Inc. Loan No.
RX0583-T2

interest is
not a Business Day, then the interest payment then due shall be paid on the
next Business Day.

SECTION 5. Commitment Fee. In consideration
of the Commitment, the Borrower shall pay to CoBank a commitment fee on the
average daily unused portion of the Commitment at a rate of 0.25% per annum
(calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year
consisting of 360 days), payable quarterly in arrears on the 20th day of the
month following such quarter end and upon the Maturity Date. Such fee shall be
payable for each quarter (or portion thereof) occurring during the original or
any extended term of the Commitment.

SECTION 6. Repayment, Prepayment and Surcharge.The Borrower may, (i) on any Business Day, prepay in full or in part any
Portion of the Loan accruing interest at the Variable Rate option, and (ii) on
three Business Days prior, irrevocable written notice, prepay in full or in
part any Portion of the Loan accruing interest pursuant to a fixed rate option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers right to prepay any amount
accruing interest pursuant to a fixed rate option shall be conditioned upon the
payment of a prepayment Surcharge as defined and calculated below. For purposes
of calculating the Surcharge provided for in this Section 6, early conversion
of a Portion of the Loan accruing interest pursuant to a fixed rate option so
that it accrues interest at a different rate pursuant to Subsection 4(A)(5) shall be deemed a
prepayment in full of that Portion of the Loan. Upon any such early conversion,
any repayment required hereunder or under the MLA, any prepayment of any
Portion of the Loan accruing interest pursuant to a fixed rate option, and as a
condition to any voluntary prepayment (whether such conversion, repayment,
prepayment or payment is made voluntarily, as a result of an acceleration, or
otherwise), the Borrower shall pay to CoBank, on the date of such repayment,
prepayment, payment or early conversion, a surcharge (Surcharge) in an amount equal to the
greater of (i) $300 and (ii) the present value of any funding losses incurred
or imputed by CoBank to have been incurred as a result of such repayment,
prepayment, payment or conversion for the period such amount was scheduled to
have been outstanding at such fixed rate (which, if less than $0, shall be
deemed to be $0), plus, in the case of the repayment, prepayment, payment or
conversion of any Portion of the Loan accruing interest pursuant to the Quoted
Rate option, an amount equal to 0.5% of the amount repaid, prepaid or
converted. Such Surcharge, including the amount of any funding losses incurred
by CoBank, shall be determined and calculated in accordance with methodology
established by CoBank.

SECTION 7. Repayment. The outstanding
principal balance of the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon and all
other amounts due and owing hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
relating to the Loan or the Commitment, shall be due and payable on the
Maturity Date.
