its corporate organizational structure or state of incorporation in any manner
except as permitted pursuant to the Loan Agreements and, if requested by the

authenticate or execute, as applicable, in form and substance satisfactory to
the Secured Party, such financing statements, continuation statements,
amendments thereto, supplemental agreements, assignments, notices of assignments,

holding securities accounts on behalf of the Debtor to execute and deliver

may reasonably request for the Secured Party to obtain an acknowledgment, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party, of any bailee
having possession of any of the Collateral that such bailee holds such
Collateral for the Secured Party. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Debtor shall take such action as the Secured Party may request
from time to time to create and perfect a security interest in favor of the
Secured Party in any and all leases, rights of way, easements, franchises,
licenses and permits relating to the location of cables and antennae and
transmission, receiving and other equipment on the property of third parties,
including, without limitation, amending such leases, rights of way, easements,
franchises, licenses and permits to allow the creation and perfection of such
security interest and obtaining the consent of all third parties whose consents
may be necessary to the creation and perfection of such security interest. The
Secured Party shall use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any
Collateral in its possession, but shall not be required to take any steps
necessary to preserve rights against other parties. All costs and expenses
incurred by the Secured Party to establish, perfect, maintain, determine the
priority of, or release the security interest granted hereunder (including the
cost of all filings, recordings, and taxes thereon and the fees and expenses of
any designee of the Secured Party) shall become part of the Obligations secured
hereby and be paid by the Debtor on demand.

maintain all rights in such Collateral unless such Collateral is not material

with prudent and commercially reasonable business practices or where such
failure to file could not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a

will continue to make all necessary filings and recordations from time to time
and use appropriate statutory notice to protect its interests in the
Collateral, including, without limitation, registration of its websites and

States Patent and Trademark Office and in corresponding offices wherever it
does business using such patents and trademarks throughout the world and its
claims to copyrights in the United States Copyright Office, in each case
including licenses and as otherwise requested from time to time by the Secured
Party, but in any event all in a manner consistent with prudent and

Secured Party pursuant to a mortgage, deed of trust or other security
instrument, if any, or Collateral located on real estate for which a leasehold
mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument is given, if any, and the
landlord with respect thereto executes and delivers to the Secured Party a
landlord waiver and consent in favor of the Secured Party in form and substance
satisfactory to the Secured Party) none of the Collateral shall become fixtures
and the Debtor will take all such reasonable action or actions as may be
reasonably necessary to prevent any of the Collateral from becoming fixtures,
which actions may include, without limitation, the use of the Debtors
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers of liens, in form
satisfactory to the Secured Party, from each lessor of real property on which
any of the Collateral is or is to be located to the extent reasonably requested
by the Secured Party.

breach under such Loan Agreement or such other Loan Document.

and all rights and remedies of a secured party in the enforcement of its
security interest under the UCC, this Security Agreement, or any other
applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing and subject to applicable law
and regulations promulgated thereunder, and upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default:

(A)

representations or warranties, and upon commercially reasonable terms, and the
Secured Party may purchase such Collateral at any public or judicial sale, or,
if such Collateral is of a type that is customarily sold on a recognized market
or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price
quotations, at any private sale. To the extent permitted by law, the Debtor
hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it
has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. At any time
when advance notice of sale is required, the Debtor agrees that 10 days prior
written notice shall be reasonable. In connection with the foregoing, the
Secured Party may:

(1)require the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and all
records pertaining thereto and make such Collateral and records available to
the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party which is
reasonably convenient to both parties;

(2)enter the premises of the Debtor or premises under the

successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation
of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise);

more brokers or other experts selected by the Secured Party to determine the

reasonable; and

(6)compromise and settle or sell, assign or transfer or
ask, collect, receive or issue any and all claims possessed by the Debtor which
constitute a portion of the Collateral, all in the name of the Debtor.

(B)
Collection of Receivables. The Secured Party may, but
shall not be obligated to, take all actions reasonable or necessary to
preserve, enforce or collect the Receivables, including, without limitation,
the right to notify account debtors and obligors on instruments to make direct

of any of the Receivables for less than face value, or to sue on any
Receivable, all without prior notice to the Debtor.

(C)

proceeds of the Collateral, and may endorse the name of the Debtor in favor of
the Secured Party on any and all checks, drafts, money orders, notes,
acceptances, or other instruments of the same or a different nature,
constituting, evidencing, or relating to the Collateral which may come into the
possession of the Secured Party. The Secured Party may receive and open all
mail addressed to the Debtor and remove therefrom any cash or non-cash items of
payment constituting proceeds of the Collateral.

(D)
Insurance Adjustments.The Secured Party may adjust,
settle, and cancel any and all insurance covering any Collateral, endorse the
name of the Debtor in favor of the Secured Party on any and all checks or
drafts drawn by any insurer, whether representing payment for a loss or a

documents or instruments of every kind required by any insurer in connection
with any payment by such insurer.

(E)

the Debtor except to the extent required by law, the Secured Party shall have
the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of the
Debtor and the Debtor hereby consents to such right and to such appointment and
hereby waives any objection the Debtor may have thereto and hereby waives the
right to have a bond or other security posted by the Secured Party or any other
person in connection therewith.

(F)
Deposit Accounts.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, such
Event of Default not having previously been waived, remedied or cured, the
Secured Party shall have the right at any time or times to give any depository
bank holding moneys or other assets of the Debtor instructions as to the
withdrawal, transfer or other disposition of any funds in any deposit accounts
of the Debtor subject thereto, without the consent of the Debtor, and may apply
all sums withdrawn from such deposit accounts to the payment of the Obligations
in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreements and, and in addition, the
Secured Party may instruct such depository banks to terminate the Debtors
withdrawal rights with respect to such deposit accounts. The Debtor constitutes
and appoints irrevocably the Secured Party its true and lawful attorney, with
full power of substitution, without limitation, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default (or other event which, in the Secured
Partys determination, adversely affects the Secured Partys interest in the
Collateral), to demand, collect, receive and sue for all amounts which may
become due and payable under the deposit accounts, and to execute all
withdrawal receipts or other orders for the Debtor, in the Secured Partys own
name or in the name of the Debtor or otherwise, which the Secured Party
reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve its right, title
and interest in such deposit accounts.

Party, after deducting its reasonable expenses incurred in such disposition,
including, but not limited to, the

11

---

Security Agreement/New
Ulm Telecom, Inc.
Loan Nos. RX0583 and RX0584

reasonable
attorneys fees and legal expenses incurred by the Secured Party, to the extent
not prohibited by law to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations in
the manner provided in the Loan Agreements. The enumeration of the foregoing
rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive, and the exercise of any
right or remedy or both shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or
remedies, all of which are cumulative and non-exclusive.

SECTION
7. FCC and State Regulatory Matters.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Security Agreement:

(A)Any foreclosure on, sale, transfer or other
disposition of, or the exercise or relinquishment of any right to vote or
consent with respect to, any of the Collateral by the Secured Party shall, to
the extent required, be in conformance with the applicable laws, rules and
regulations of the FCC and of the State of Minnesota, and, if and to the extent
required thereby, subject to the prior approval of or notice to and
non-opposition of the FCC and the PUC.

(B)If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Debtor shall take any action which the Secured Party may
reasonably request in order to transfer or assign, or both, to the Secured
Party, or to such one or more third parties as the Secured Party may designate,
or to a combination of the foregoing, any FCC or PUC license, permit,
certificate or other authorization held or utilized by the Debtor, subject to
the prior approval of the FCC or any PUC, if required. Alternatively, the
Secured Party is empowered, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, to
request the appointment of a receiver from any court of competent jurisdiction.
Such receiver may be instructed by the Secured Party to seek from the FCC or
any PUC consent to an involuntary transfer of control of the Debtor or
assignment, or both, of each such FCC or PUC license, permit, certificate or
other authorization for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom
control of assets used in the provision of telecommunications or related
services will ultimately be transferred or assigned. The Debtor hereby agrees
to authorize such an involuntary transfer of control or assignment, or both,
upon the request of the receiver so appointed and, if the Debtor shall refuse
to authorize the transfer, its approval may be required by the court. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Debtor shall
further use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in obtaining approval of
the FCC or any PUC and any other state regulatory bodies, if required, for any
action or transactions contemplated by this Security Agreement, including,
without limitation, the preparation, execution and filing with the FCC or any
PUC and any other state regulatory bodies of the assignors or transferors
portion of any application or applications for consent to the assignment of any
FCC or PUC license, permit, certificate or other authorization or right to use
any FCC or PUC license, permit, certificate or other authorization or transfer
of control necessary or appropriate under the rules and regulations of the FCC
or PUC or any other state regulatory body for approval or non-opposition of the
transfer or assignment of any portion of the Collateral, together with any FCC
or PUC license, permit, certificate or other authorization.

(C)The Debtor acknowledges that the assignment or
transfer of any FCC or PUC license, permit, certificate or other authorization
or right to use any FCC or PUC license, permit, certificate or other
authorization (subject to the prior approval of the FCC or any PUC, if
required) is integral to the Secured Partys realization of the value of the
Collateral, that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by the Debtor
to comply with the provisions of this Section 7 and that such failure would

12

---

Security
Agreement/New Ulm Telecom, Inc.
Loan Nos. RX0583 and RX0584

not be
adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees, without limiting the
right of the Secured Party to seek and obtain specific performance of other
obligations of the Debtor contained in this Security Agreement, that the
agreements contained in this Section 7 may be specifically enforced.

SECTION
8. Other Provisions.

(A)
Amendment and Waiver. Without the prior written
consent of the Secured Party, no amendment or waiver of, or consent to any
departure by the Debtor from, any provision hereunder shall be effective. Any
such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No delay or failure by
the Secured Party to exercise any remedy hereunder shall be deemed a waiver
thereof or of any other remedy hereunder. A waiver on any one occasion shall
not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any remedy on any subsequent
occasion.

(B)
Costs and Attorneys Fees. Except as prohibited by
law, if at any time the Secured Party employs counsel in connection with the
creation, perfection, preservation, or release of the security interest of the
Secured Party in the Collateral or the enforcement of any of the Secured
Partys rights or remedies hereunder, all of the Secured Partys reasonable
attorneys fees arising from such services and all other reasonable expenses,
costs, or charges relating thereto shall become part of the Obligations secured
hereby and be paid by the Debtor on demand.

(C)
No Obligation to Make Loans. Nothing contained herein
or in any financing statement or other collateral document executed or filed in
connection herewith shall be construed to obligate the Secured Party to make
any loan or advance to the Debtor, whether pursuant to a commitment or
otherwise.

(D)
Termination; Reinstatement. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
until (i) the Secured Party has no further commitment or obligation to make
advances to be secured hereby with respect to the Obligations, (ii) all
Obligations have been paid in full and (iii) the Secured Party has executed and
delivered a written statement of termination. To the extent the Debtor or any
third party makes a payment or payments to the Secured Party or the Secured
Party receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for the Obligations,
enforces its security interest or exercises any right of set off, and such
payment or payments or the proceeds thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid
to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy, insolvency or
other law or in equity, or any combination of the foregoing, then, to the
extent of such recovery, the Obligations or any part thereof originally
intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect, and this Security Agreement, if earlier terminated, shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect, as if such payment or payments had not
been made, or such enforcement or set off had not occurred.

(E)
Performance by the Secured Party. Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default hereunder, the Secured Party may, at its option and
without notice to or demand upon the Debtor, except as expressly stated herein,
without obligation and without waiving or diminishing any of its other rights
or remedies hereunder, fully perform or dis­charge any of such duties. Upon the

13

---

Security
Agreement/New Ulm Telecom, Inc.
Loan Nos. RX0583 and RX0584

occurrence of
an Event of Default hereunder, all costs and expenses incurred by the Secured
Party in con­nec­tion therewith, together with interest thereon at 4% per annum
in excess of the highest interest rate applicable to any Loan or advance
secured hereby (and in the case of payment obligations other than principal on
the Loans prior to the maturity of the Loans, 6.50% per annum in excess of the
Secured Partys announced Base Rate) shall become part of the Obligations
secured hereby and be due and paid by the Debtor upon demand.

(F)
Indemnification, Etc. The Debtor hereby expressly
indemnifies and holds the Secured Party harmless from any and all claims,
causes of action, or other proceedings, and from any and all liability, loss,
damage, and expense of every nature, arising by reason of the Secured Partys
enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder, or by reason of the Debtors
failure to comply with any environmental or other law or regulation, other than
any such claim, cause of action or other proceeding, liability, loss, damage or
expense arising by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part
of the Secured Party. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Secured
Party under any account for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any
provisions of any account, the Debtor will save, indemnify and keep the Secured
Party harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason
of any defense, set off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability
whatsoever of the account debtor or any other obligor thereunder, arising out
of a breach by the Debtor of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any
other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of
such account debtor or obligor or its successors from the Debtor (except to the
extent any such expense, loss or damage results from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Secured Party). The obligations of the Debtor under
this Subsection 8(F) shall survive the termination of the other provisions of
this Security Agreement.

(G)
Power of Attorney. The Debtor hereby constitutes and
appoints the Secured Party or the Secured Partys designee during the term of
any Obligations as its attorney-in-fact, effective upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, which appointment is an irrevocable, durable agency, coupled
with an interest, with full power of substitution. This power of attorney and
mandate is for the purpose of taking, whether in the name of the Debtor or in
the name of the Secured Party, any action which the Debtor is obligated to
perform hereunder or which the Secured Party may deem necessary or advisable to
accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement (including, without
limitation, the power to collect accounts and deposit accounts and otherwise
direct the depository institutions with respect thereto, and to provide control
notices and/or entitlement orders to institutions with respect to securities
accounts). The powers conferred upon the Secured Party in this Subsection 8(G)
are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any
duty upon the Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Secured Party
shall have the right to exercise its power of attorney only upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(H)
Continuing Effect. This Security Agreement, the
security interest of the Secured Party, in the Collateral, and all other
documents or instruments contemplated hereby shall continue in full force and
effect until all of the Obligations have been satisfied in full and each of the
Guaranty, New Ulm MLA, New Ulm First Supplement, New Ulm Second Supplement, and
each other Supplement under the New Ulm MLA, Hutchinson MLA, Hutchinson First
Supplement, Hutchinson Second Supplement, Hutchinson Third Supplement and each
other Supplement under the Hutchinson

made on or security given for the Obligations has expired under applicable Law.

(I)

binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Secured Party and its successors
and assigns, and in the event of an assignment of all or any of the
Obligations, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness
so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness. This Security Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Debtor and its successor
and assigns; provided, that the Debtor may not assign any of its rights
or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Secured
Party.

(J)
Governing Law. Except to the extent governed by
