satisfied, this Mortgage shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. 
 MORTGAGOR FURTHER COVENANTS AND AGREES WITH MORTGAGEE AS
FOLLOWS: 
 1. MORTGAGOR’S COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. 
 1.1 Warranty of Title. At the time of the recordation of this Mortgage, Mortgagor is well seized of an indefeasible estate
in fee simple in the portion of the Mortgaged Property which constitutes real property and owns good title to the portion of the Mortgaged Property which constitutes personal property, and Mortgagor has good right, full power and lawful authority to
convey, mortgage and grant a security interest therein and to assign the Rents. Said title of Mortgagor in the Mortgaged Property is free and 

  

 4 

 
clear of all liens, charges, easements, covenants, conditions, restrictions and encumbrances whatsoever, other than liens evidenced by the mortgagee title
insurance policy being issued in connection with this instrument, including as to the personal property and fixtures, security agreements, conditional sales contracts and anything of a similar nature. Mortgagor shall and will forever defend the
title to the Mortgaged Property against the claims of all persons whomsoever. 
 1.2 Taxes. Mortgagor shall pay,
or cause to be paid, all installments of taxes, assessments and other similar charges which are assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed, or which become a lien upon or against the Mortgaged Property or which become payable with respect thereto or with
respect to the occupancy, use or possession of the Mortgaged Property, within thirty (30) days after the same become due, and shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee receipt therefor. In the event Mortgagor desires to contest the validity of any
such taxes or assessments. Mortgagor shall (i) prior to the due date thereof, notify Mortgagee in writing that Mortgagor intends to so contest the same, (ii) if requested by Mortgagee, pay the entire amounts of such taxes or assessments
when due or, if a contest is permitted by law without such payment on or before the due date thereof, deposit with Mortgagee security in form and content and amounts satisfactory to Mortgagee for the payment of 125% of such tax or assessment, or
provide to Mortgagee such other indemnity or assurance of timely payment as may be acceptable to Mortgagee, and (iii) if requested by Mortgagee, deposit additional security or indemnity, from time to time, so that, at all times, adequate security or
indemnity will be available for the payment of the full amount of the taxes or assessments together with all interest, penalties, costs and charges accrued or accumulated thereon. If the foregoing deposits are made and Mortgagor continues, in good
faith, to contest the validity of such taxes or assessments by appropriate legal proceedings which shall operate to prevent the collection thereof and the sale of the Mortgaged Property to satisfy the same, Mortgagor shall be under no obligation to
pay such tax or assessment until such time as the same has been decreed, by court order, to be a valid lien on the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee shall have full power and authority to reduce any such security or indemnity to cash and apply the
amount so received to the payment of any unpaid tax or assessment to prevent the sale or forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property, without any liability on Mortgagee’s part for any failure to apply the security or indemnity so deposited, unless
Mortgagor requests, in writing, the application thereof to the payment of the particular tax or assessment for which such deposit was made. Any surplus deposit retained by Mortgagee, after the payment of the tax or assessment for which the same was
made, shall be repaid to Mortgagor, unless an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) exists, or an event has occurred or condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, could give rise to an Event of Default, in
which event such surplus shall be applied by Mortgagee to the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may determine. 
 1.3 Mortgage Taxes. In the event of the passage of any federal, state or local governmental law, order, rule or regulation subsequent to the date hereof which changes or modifies in any manner the laws
now in force governing the taxation of mortgages or debts secured by mortgages or the manner of collecting taxes so as to materially and adversely affect Mortgagee, all sums secured by this Mortgage and all interest accrued thereon shall become due
forthwith at the option of Mortgagee and be payable 60 days after notice to Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instead of paying all the sums secured by this Mortgage and all interest accrued thereon as provided above, Mortgagor shall have
the right to pay to Mortgagee an amount which will place Mortgagee in exactly the same position Mortgagee would have been in had the events outlined above not occurred, provided, however, if such payment may, in Mortgagee’s judgment, be
considered unlawful by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such payment may not be made and all sums secured by this Mortgage and all interest accrued thereon shall become due forthwith at the option of Mortgagee and payable 60 days after notice
to Mortgagor as aforesaid. 
  

 5 

 1.4 Utilities. Mortgagor shall pay or cause to be paid when due any and all
charges for utilities, whether public or private, with respect to the Mortgaged Property and all license fees, rents or other charges for the use of any appurtenance to the Mortgaged Property. 
 1.5 Liens. The Mortgaged Property shall be kept free and clear of all liens and encumbrances (unless the same are bonded or
insured over in a manner satisfactory to Mortgagee) of every nature or description, including, without limitation, liens and encumbrances arising from past due taxes or assessments and from charges for labor, materials, supplies or services, other
than liens expressly permitted by Mortgagee from time to time. 
 1.6 Subrogation. Mortgagee shall be subrogated
to the claims and liens of all parties whose claims or liens are discharged or paid with the proceeds of any indebtedness secured hereby. 
 1.7 Insurance. Mortgagor shall, at its expense, maintain insurance policies in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. 
 1.8 Casualty. Mortgagor shall give immediate notice to Mortgagee of any damage to or loss of the Mortgaged Property or any
portion thereof in excess of $100,000. In case of such damage or loss which is covered by any of the insurance policies maintained by Mortgagor, Mortgagee is hereby authorized, after giving three Business Days’ written notice to Mortgagor, to
adjust, collect and compromise all claims thereunder during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder; and in such case, Mortgagor shall sign immediately upon demand by Mortgagee, or, in the event Mortgagor fails to do so, Mortgagee may sign
or endorse on Mortgagor’s behalf, all necessary proofs of loss, receipts, releases and other papers required by the insurance companies to be signed by Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact for the
purposes set forth in the preceding sentence. In all other cases, Mortgagor shall have the right to adjust and compromise such insurance claims and any proceeds shall be payable to Mortgagee and Mortgagor jointly. Mortgagee may deduct from such
insurance proceeds any reasonable expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the settlement and collection thereof, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses. The remaining proceeds are referred to in this instrument as the
“Net Insurance Proceeds.” 
 1.9 Condemnation. If the Mortgaged Property, other than a part the
loss of which, in Mortgagee’s sole discretion, would not adversely affect the operation of the Mortgaged Property, shall be damaged or taken through condemnation (which term, when used herein, shall include any damage or taking by any
governmental authority and any transfer by private sale in lieu thereof), either temporarily, if in Mortgagee’s judgment such taking causes a material, adverse impact on (i) the Mortgaged Property and (ii) Mortgagor’s ability to
pay or perform the Secured Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents, or permanently, all of the Secured Obligations and obligations under the Loan Documents shall, at the option of Mortgagee, become immediately due and payable. Mortgagee
shall be entitled to all compensation, awards and other payments or relief therefor and all such compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights, actions and proceedings, and the right thereto, are hereby assigned by Mortgagor to Mortgagee and shall
be paid to Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute such further assignments of, or payment directions relating to, any compensations, awards, damages, claims, rights, actions and proceedings as Mortgagee may require. Mortgagee may deduct from such
compensation, awards and other payments any reasonable expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the collection and settlement thereof, including, without limitation, 

  

 6 

 
attorneys’ fees and expenses. The remaining amount is referred to in this instrument as the “Net Award Proceeds”. Mortgagee is hereby
authorized, at its option and after three Business Days’ written notice to Mortgagor, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in its own name or in the name of Mortgagor, any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation, and to settle or
compromise any claim in connection therewith during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder; in all other cases, Mortgagor shall have the right to prosecute, settle or compromise any such claim and any proceeds therefrom shall be payable to
Mortgagor and Mortgagee jointly. Mortgagee shall not be liable to Mortgagor for any failure to collect any amount in connection with any such proceeding regardless of the cause of such failure. 
 1.10 Restoration. If the Mortgaged Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or shall be damaged or
taken through the exercise of the power of eminent domain or other cause, Mortgagor shall promptly and with all due diligence restore and repair the Mortgaged Property whether or not the Net Insurance Proceeds or the Net Award Proceeds (in either
event, the “Proceeds”) are available or sufficient to pay the cost of such restoration or repair, which restoration and repair shall be commenced within 45 days of the damage or destruction and completed within 180-days thereof.
Mortgagee may require that all plans and specifications for such restoration or repair be submitted to and approved by Mortgagee in writing prior to commencement of the work. Mortgagee may require evidence of the estimated cost of completion of such
restoration or repair satisfactory to Mortgagee and, thereafter, such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractors’ sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, plats of survey and other evidence of cost, payment and
performance relating to such restoration or repair work which is satisfactory to Mortgagee. 
 1.11 Application of
Insurance Proceeds. At Mortgagee’s election, to be exercised by written notice to Mortgagor within thirty (30) days following Mortgagee’s unrestricted receipt in cash or the equivalent thereof of the Proceeds, the entire
amount of the Proceeds shall be either (i) applied to the amounts outstanding with respect to the Loan Documents and in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect, or (ii) made available to Mortgagor on the terms and conditions set forth
in this Section to finance the cost of restoration or repair, with any excess to be applied to the Secured Obligations and amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents in an order determined by Mortgagee in its sole and absolute discretion.
Mortgagee may commingle any such funds held by it with its other general funds. Mortgagee shall not be obligated to pay interest in respect of any such funds held by it. Without limitation of any of the foregoing, Mortgagee shall have the right at
all times to apply such funds to the cure of any Event of Default or the performance of any obligations of Mortgagor hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 1.12 shall govern any conflicting
provision in Section 1.9. 
 1.12 Governmental Authority Payments. Mortgagor agrees with respect to
the collateral described in Granting Clauses K and L of this instrument (the “Governmental Authority Payments”) as follows: (i) that Mortgagor shall, at Mortgagor’s sole expense, promptly take all actions necessary to

under no obligation to do so, or Mortgagee may pursue any other remedies provided under the Loan Documents which Mortgagee is entitled to pursue as a result of a violation of the warranties and covenants of this Section or as a result of any

decree; 
  

 13

granting such remedy; and 
 (iii) Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, upon demand, all expenses (including, without

advanced by Mortgagee under an obligation to do so regardless of the identity of the person or persons to whom such funds are furnished, (ii) constitute additional advances hereunder, the payment of which is additional indebtedness evidenced by
the Notes, and (iii) become due and owing, at Mortgagee’s demand, with interest accruing from the date of disbursement thereof until fully paid at the Default Rate. 
 2.3 Other Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee may, in addition to any other rights
and remedies hereunder, exercise any and all remedies provided in any of the other Loan Documents. To the extent the laws of the State of Idaho limit (i) the availability of the exercise of any of the remedies set forth in this instrument (such
as, by way of example, remedies involving a power of sale on the part of Mortgagee and the right of Mortgagee to exercise self-help in connection with the enforcement of the terms of this Mortgage), or (ii) the enforcement of waivers and
indemnities made by Mortgagor, such remedies, waivers or indemnities shall be exercisable or enforceable, any provisions in this Mortgage to the contrary notwithstanding, if, and to the extent, permitted by the laws in force at the time of the

 14 

 2.4 No Mortgagee Liability. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall
have no liability for any loss, damage, injury, cost or expense resulting from any action or omission by it, or any of its representatives, which was taken, omitted or made in good faith except losses, damages, injuries, costs or expenses resulting
from Mortgagee’s gross negligence. 
 2.5 Mortgagee’s Attorneys’ Fees. In case of any Event of
Default hereunder, Mortgagor shall pay Mortgagee’s attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 2.6 Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagee, upon application to a court of
competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled as a matter of strict right without notice and without regard to the occupancy or value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the insolvency of any party bound for its payment to the appointment of
a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Mortgaged Property and to collect and apply the rents, issues, profits, revenues, awards and other benefits thereof. The receiver shall have all of the rights and powers to the fullest extent
permitted by law. Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee upon demand all of Mortgagee’s costs and expenses, including, without limitation, receiver’s fees and expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred pursuant to this Section plus
interest thereon accruing at the Default Rate, and all such amounts shall be additional indebtedness comprising Secured Obligations. 
 2.7 Mortgagee’s Power of Enforcement. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagee may, either with or without entry or taking possession as herein provided or otherwise, proceed by suit or
suits at law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (i) to enforce payment of the Secured Obligations or the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement of this Mortgage or any other right, (ii) to
foreclose this Mortgage and to sell the Mortgaged Property as an entirety or otherwise, as Mortgagee may determine, and (iii) to pursue any other remedy available to it, including without limitation any remedy available to it under any of the
Loan Documents, all as Mortgagee shall deem most effectual for such purposes. Mortgagee may take action either by such proceedings or by the exercise of its powers with respect to entry or taking possession, as Mortgagee may determine. Mortgagee may
elect to pursue any one or more or all of the foregoing. 
 2.8 Purchase by Mortgagee. Upon any foreclosure
sale, Mortgagee may bid for and purchase the Mortgaged Property and shall be entitled to apply all or any part of any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby as a credit to the purchase price. 
 2.9 Fees and Expenses; Application of Proceeds of Sale. In any suit to foreclose the lien hereof, there shall be allowed and
included as additional indebtedness secured hereby (and part of the Secured Obligations) in the decree for sale, to the extent permitted by law, all costs and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee or the holder of the
Note for attorneys’ fees and expenses, appraiser’s fees and expenses, receiver’s fees and expenses, insurance, taxes, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, costs for preservation of the Mortgaged Property, stenographer’s
charges, publication cost and costs of procuring all abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, and similar data and assurances with respect to title as Mortgagee or the holder of the Note may deem to be necessary either to prosecute such
suit or to evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had pursuant to such decree the true condition of the title to or value of the Mortgaged Property, or for any other reasonable purpose. The amount of any such costs and expenses which may be
paid or incurred after the decree for sale is entered may be estimated and the amount of such estimate may be allowed and included as additional indebtedness secured hereby (and part of the Secured Obligations) in the decree for sale. In the event
of a foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged 

  

 15 

 
Property, the proceeds of said sale shall be applied first to the expenses of such sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including without
limitation attorneys’ fees and expenses, then to insurance premiums, liens, assessments, taxes and charges, including, without limitation, utility charges, then to payment of the outstanding principal balance of any indebtedness secured hereby,
then to the accrued interest on all of the foregoing, and, finally, the remainder, if any, shall be paid to Mortgagor. 
 2.10 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption Laws. Mortgagor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that if an Event of Default occurs hereunder, neither Mortgagor nor anyone claiming through
or under Mortgagor shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this
Mortgage, or the absolute sale of the Mortgaged Property hereby conveyed, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat, and Mortgagor, for itself and all who may at any time claim
by, through or under it, hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of all such laws and any and all rights to have the assets comprised in the security intended to be created hereby marshalled upon any
foreclosure of the lien of this instrument. 
 2.11 Leases. Mortgagee, at its option, is authorized to foreclose
this Mortgage subject to the rights of any tenants of the Mortgaged Property, and the failure to make such tenants parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted to be by Mortgagor, a defense
to any proceedings instituted by Mortgagee to collect the sums secured hereby, or any deficiency remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the Mortgaged Property. 
 2.12 Discontinuance of Proceedings and Restoration of the Parties. In case Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any
right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to Mortgagee, then and in every such case Mortgagor
and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken. 
 2.13 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee by this Mortgage is intended to
be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or
in equity or by statute. 
 2.14 Suits to Protect the Mortgaged Property. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default under this instrument, Mortgagee shall have the power (i) to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Mortgaged Property by any acts which may be unlawful or in
violation of this Mortgage; (ii) to preserve or protect its interest in the Mortgage Property and in the rents, issues, profits, revenues, awards and other benefits arising therefrom; and (iii) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance
with any legislation or other governmental enactment, regulation, rule, order or other requirement that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment, regulation, rule, order or other
requirement would impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of Mortgagee, and all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection therewith (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) shall be paid
by Mortgagor to Mortgagee on demand with interest at the Default Rate, and all such amounts shall be additional indebtedness secured hereby (and part of the Secured Obligations). 
  

 16 

 2.15 Mortgagee May File Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership,
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting Mortgagor, its creditors or its property, Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Mortgagee allowed in such proceedings for the entire amount due and payable by Mortgagor under this Mortgage at the date of the institution of such proceedings and for any
additional amount which may become due and payable by Mortgagor hereunder after such date. 
 3. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES
AND RENTS. 
 3.1 Assignment. For $10.00 and other good and valuable consideration, including the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Mortgagor has granted, bargained, sold and conveyed, and by these presents does grant, bargain, sell and convey absolutely unto Mortgagee the Leases and
the Rents, subject only to the hereinafter referenced License, to have and to hold the Leases and the Rents unto Mortgagee, forever, and Mortgagor does hereby bind itself, its successors and assigns to warrant and forever defend the title to the
Leases and the Rents unto Mortgagee against every person whomsoever lawfully claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof by or through Mortgagor; provided, however, if Mortgagor shall pay or cause to be paid and shall perform and discharge or
cause to be performed and discharged, the Secured Obligations, then this assignment shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and all rights, titles and interests conveyed pursuant to this assignment shall become revested in Mortgagor
without the necessity of any further act or requirement by Mortgagor or Mortgagee. 
 3.2 Limited License.
Mortgagee hereby grants to Mortgagor a limited license (the “License”), nonexclusive with the rights of Mortgagee reserved in this Mortgage, to exercise and enjoy all incidences of ownership of the Leases and the Rents, including
specifically but without limitation the right to collect, demand, sue for, attach, levy, recover and receive the Rents, and to give proper receipts, releases and acquittances therefor. Mortgagor hereby agrees to receive all Rents and hold the same
as a trust fund to be applied, and to apply the Rent so collected, to the payment, satisfaction and discharge of the indebtedness described in the Loan Documents as and when the same shall become due and payable. Thereafter, Mortgagor may use the
balance of the Rent collected in any manner not inconsistent with the Loan Documents. 
 3.3 Enforcement of
Leases. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1.14 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall (a) duly and punctually perform and comply with any and all representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements expressed as binding upon the landlord under any Lease, (b) maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect during the term thereof, (c) to the extent commercially reasonable, appear in and defend any action or proceeding
in any manner connected with any of the Leases, (d) deliver to Mortgagee copies of executed counterparts of all Leases and (e) deliver to Mortgagee such further information, and execute and deliver to Mortgagee such further assurances and
assignments, with respect to the Leases as Mortgagee may from time to time reasonably request. Without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, Mortgagor shall not materially discount any future accruing Rent, or assign or grant a security interest
in or to the License or any of the Leases. 
 3.4 Suits; Attornment. Subject to the License and the provisions
of Section 2.1.2 of this Mortgage, Mortgagee hereby reserves and may exercise the right and Mortgagor hereby acknowledges that Mortgagee has the right (but not the obligation), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, to collect, demand, sue 
  

 17 

 
for, attach, levy, recover and receive any Rent, to give proper receipts, releases and acquittances therefor and, after deducting the expenses of collection,
to apply the net proceeds thereof as a credit upon any portion of any indebtedness secured hereby selected by Mortgagee, notwithstanding that such portion selected may not then be due and payable or that such portion is otherwise adequately secured.
Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs any lessee of the Mortgaged Property to deliver any such payment to, and otherwise to attorn all other obligations under the Leases direct to, Mortgagee. Mortgagor hereby ratifies and confirms all that
Mortgagee shall do or cause to be done by virtue and in compliance with the terms of this assignment. No lessee shall be required to inquire into the authority of Mortgagee to collect any Rent, and any lessee’s obligation to Mortgagor shall be
absolutely discharged to the extent of its payment to Mortgagee. 
 3.5 Remedies. Upon or at any time after the
occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagee, at its option and in addition to the remedies provided in this Mortgage, shall have the complete, continuing and absolute right, power and authority to terminate the License solely by the giving of
written notice of termination to Mortgagor. Upon Mortgagee’s giving of such notice, the License shall immediately terminate without any further action being required of Mortgagee. Thereafter, as long as any Event of Default shall exist,
Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right, power and authority to take any and all action as described above, regardless of whether a foreclosure sale of the remainder of the Mortgaged Property has occurred under this Mortgage, or whether Mortgagee
has taken possession of the remainder of the Mortgaged Property or attempted to do any of the same. No action referred to above or in this Section taken by Mortgagee shall constitute an election of remedy. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary
herein, in the event of such a termination of Mortgagor’s License, such License shall be reinstated when and if the applicable Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. 
 3.6 No Obligation of Mortgagee. Neither the acceptance by Mortgagee of the assignment granted in this Mortgage, nor the
granting of any other right, power, privilege or authority in this Mortgage, nor the exercise of any of the aforesaid, shall (i) prior to the actual taking of physical possession and operational control of the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee,
be deemed to constitute Mortgagee as a “mortgagee in possession” or (ii) at any time thereafter, obligate Mortgagee (a) to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases, the Rents or the remainder of
the Mortgaged Property, (b) to take any action hereunder, (c) to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability with respect to any Lease, (d) to assume any obligation or
responsibility for any deposits which are not physically delivered to Mortgagee or (e) for any injury or damage to person or property sustained in or about the Mortgaged Property, provided that nothing herein shall relieve Mortgagee of
liability for the willful misconduct or gross negligence or omissions of Mortgagee. 
 3.7 Mortgagor’s
Indemnities. So long as the License is in effect, Mortgagor shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage or expense which Mortgagee incurs under or by reason of this assignment, or
for any action taken by Mortgagee hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof, or by reason of or in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever which are asserted against Mortgagee arising out of the Leases. In the event Mortgagee incurs
any such liability, loss, cost, damage or expense, the amount thereof together with all reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest thereon at the Default Rate shall be payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee, within 10 days after demand by Mortgagee,
and shall be secured by this Mortgage, provided that Mortgagor shall have no duty or liability hereunder to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from matters resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Mortgagee, or matters which
arise from events first occurring after Mortgagee has acquired title to the Property by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure.

Mortgage the same as though any such invalid portion had never been included herein. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if any provisions of this Mortgage or the application thereof are held invalid or unenforceable only as to

accordance with the internal laws of the State of Utah without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit any rights, powers or privileges which Mortgagee may have pursuant to any law of the United States of
America or any rule, regulation or order of any department or agency thereof and nothing herein shall be deemed to make unlawful any transaction or conduct by Mortgagee which is lawful pursuant to, or which is permitted by, any of the foregoing.

 4.7 No Third Party Beneficiary. This Mortgage is made for the sole benefit of Mortgagor and Mortgagee, and no
other person shall be deemed to have any privity of contract hereunder nor any right to rely hereon to any extent or for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall any other person have any right of action of any kind hereon or be deemed to be a third party
beneficiary hereunder. 
 4.8 Interpretation. All references herein to a party’s best knowledge shall be
deemed to mean the best knowledge of such party based on all appropriate and thorough inquiry. Unless specified to the contrary herein, all references herein to an exercise of discretion or judgment by Mortgagee, to the making of a determination or
designation by Mortgagee, to the application of Mortgagee’s discretion or opinion, to the granting or withholding of Mortgagee’s consent or approval, to the consideration of whether a matter or thing is satisfactory or acceptable to
Mortgagee, or otherwise involving the decision making of Mortgagee, shall be deemed to mean that Mortgagee shall decide unilaterally using its sole and absolute discretion or judgment. 
 4.9 No Waiver. 
 4.9.1 General Waiver Provisions. No waiver of any term, provision, condition, covenant or agreement herein contained shall be effective unless set forth in a writing signed by Mortgagee, and any such waiver
shall be effective only to the extent set forth in such writing. No failure by Mortgagee to exercise or delay by Mortgagee in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy provided by law. The rights and remedies provided in this Mortgage are cumulative and not exclusive of any right
or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice or demand on Mortgagor in any case shall, in itself, entitle Mortgagor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Mortgagee to any
other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 
 4.9.2 Specific Waiver Provisions. If
Mortgagee (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby; (ii) takes other or additional security for the payment of any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby; (iii)
waives or does not exercise any right granted herein or in the Loan Documents or in any other document or instrument securing the Secured Obligations; (iv) releases with or without consideration any of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of
this Mortgage or any other security for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby; (v) changes any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of any Loan Document or this Mortgage or in any other document or instrument securing the
Secured Obligations; (vi) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat or condominium declaration affecting the Mortgaged Property; (vii) consents to the granting of any easement or other right affecting the Mortgaged Property; or
(viii) makes or consents to any agreement subordinating the lien hereof; any such act or omission shall not release, discharge, modify, change or affect (except to the extent of the changes referred to in clause (v) 

  

 20 

 
above) the original liability under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document or any other obligation of Mortgagor or any subsequent purchaser(s) of the
Mortgaged Property, or any maker, co-signer, endorser, surety or guarantor; nor shall any such act or omission preclude Mortgagee from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default then made or of any subsequent Event of Default, except to the extent expressly agreed to in writing by Mortgagee, nor shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument or instruments executed by Mortgagee, the lien of this
Mortgage or the priority thereof be altered thereby, whether or not there are junior lienors and whether or not they consent to any of the foregoing. 
 4.9.3 Sale or Transfer. In the event of the sale, assignment or other transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagee, without notice, is hereby authorized
and empowered to deal with any such vendee or transferee with reference to the Mortgaged Property or the Secured Obligations, or with reference to any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it
might deal with the original parties hereto and without in any way releasing or discharging any liabilities, obligations or undertakings. The foregoing shall not limit the prohibition against transfer set forth in Section 1.17 hereof.

 4.9.4 Partial Releases. Without limitation of the foregoing, Mortgagee hereby reserves the right to make partial
release or releases of the Mortgaged Property, or of any other security held by Mortgagee with respect to all or any part of the Secured Obligations, without notice to, or the consent, approval or agreements of, other parties in interest, including
junior lienors, which partial release or releases shall not impair in any manner the validity or priority of this Mortgage on the portion of said property not so released. 
 4.10 Security Agreement. This Mortgage shall be construed as a “Security Agreement” within the meaning of
and shall create a security interest under the UCC, with respect to any part of the Mortgaged Property which constitutes fixtures or personal property. Mortgagee shall have the rights with respect to such fixtures and personal property afforded to
it by said Uniform Commercial Code in addition to, but not in limitation of, the other rights afforded Mortgagee by this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 4.11 Fixture Filing. As to all of the Mortgaged Property which is or which hereafter becomes a “fixture” under
applicable law, this Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing under Sections 9-334 and 9-502(c) of the UCC. 
 4.12 No
Merger. It being the desire and the intention of the parties hereto that this Mortgage and the lien hereof do not merge into fee simple title to the Mortgaged Property, it is hereunder understood and agreed that, should Mortgagee acquire fee
title or other interests in or to the Mortgaged Property then, unless a contrary interest is manifested by Mortgagee as evidenced by an appropriate document duly recorded, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall not merge with the fee simple title,
so that this Mortgage may continue to be foreclosed as if owned by a stranger to the fee simple title. 
 4.13 Delivery
of Summons, Etc. If any action or proceeding shall be instituted which (i) is intended to evict Mortgagor or recover possession of the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) could result in a money judgment in excess of Fifty Thousand and
No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) for failure to pay any obligation relating to the Mortgaged Property or this Mortgage (which judgment amount in excess of Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) would not be covered and fully paid by applicable
insurance), or (iii) could result in a lien on the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor shall 

  

 21 

 
immediately, upon service thereof on or by Mortgagor, deliver to Mortgagee a true copy of each petition, summons, complaint, notice of motion, order to show
cause and all other process, pleadings and papers, however designated, served in any such action or proceeding. 
 4.14
Successors and Assigns. This Mortgage shall be binding upon Mortgagor and its legal representatives, successors and assigns. 
 4.15 Legal Tender of United States. All payments hereunder shall be made in the legal tender of the United States of America for public and private debts. 
 4.16 Compliance with Mortgage Foreclosure Law. In the event that any provision in this Mortgage shall be inconsistent with
any provision of the statutes or common law of the State of Idaho governing the foreclosure of this Mortgage (collectively, the “Foreclosure Laws”), the provisions of the Foreclosure Laws shall take precedence over the provisions of
this Mortgage, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Mortgage that can be construed in a manner consistent with the Foreclosure Laws. 
 4.17 Definitions; Cautions. With respect to any reference in this Mortgage to any defined term, (i) if such defined
term refers to a person, or a trust, corporation, partnership or other entity, then it shall also mean all heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of such person or entity, and (ii) if such defined term refers to a document,
instrument or agreement, then it shall also include any replacement, extension or other modification thereof. Captions contained in this Mortgage in no way define, limit or extend the scope or intent of their respective provisions. All exhibits
referenced in this Mortgage refer to the exhibits that are attached to it and are incorporated in it. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys fees and costs shall include attorneys’ and paralegals’ and similar persons’ fees and
costs in regard to enforcement, trial, appellate and collection matters, bankruptcy and probate, mediation and arbitration, and all other legal and administrative processes or proceedings. 
 4.18 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL. MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT
MORTGAGOR MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE, ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF MORTGAGEE. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL
INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE TO ENTER INTO EACH OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS IT EXECUTES, AND THAT THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS TO EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AS IF FULLY INCORPORATED THEREIN. 
 5. OTHER PROVISIONS. 
 5.1 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee by any Loan Document is exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and
remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute. 
 5.2 Invalid Provisions. In the event that any of the covenants, agreements, terms or provisions contained herein or in any
other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity of the remaining covenants, agreements, terms or provisions contained herein or therein (or the application of the covenant, agreement, term held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, to persons or circumstances other than those in respect of which it is invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be in no way affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby. 
  

 22 

 5.3 Conflicts. In the event of a conflict between the terms hereof and the
terms of any other Loan Document, the terms of the document which shall either enlarge the interest of Mortgagee in the Mortgaged Property, grant to Mortgagee greater financial security in the Mortgaged Property and/or assure payment of the Secured
Obligations in full, shall control. 
 5.4 Future Advances. This Mortgage is given to secure not only existing
indebtedness, but also such future advances, whether such advances are obligatory or are to be made at the option of Mortgagee, or otherwise, as are made within twenty years from the date hereof, to the same extent as if such future advances were
made on the date of the execution of this Mortgage. The total amount of indebtedness that may be so secured may decrease or increase from time to time, but the total unpaid balance so secured at one time shall not exceed Six Million and No/100
Dollars ($6,000,000.00), plus interest thereon, and any disbursements made for the payment of taxes, levies or insurance on the Mortgaged Property, Nothing in this instrument shall be deemed an obligation on the part of Mortgagee to make any future
advances. Mortgagor hereby agrees that it shall not execute or file for record any notice limiting the maximum principal amount that may be so secured to a sum less than the maximum principal amount set forth in this Section, and that no such notice
shall be of any force and effect whatsoever unless Mortgagee shall have consented thereto (which consent may be granted or withheld in Mortgagee’s sole discretion) in writing signed by Mortgagee and recorded in the public records of the county
in which the Land is situated; any filing of such a notice shall be an Event of Default under this Mortgage. 
 5.5
Covenants of Guarantors. As a part of the inducement to Mortgagee to extend the credit secured hereby, Mortgagor has caused one or more other persons, firms or corporations to enter into certain guaranty agreements with Mortgagee.
Mortgagor covenants and agrees that such persons, firms or corporations shall fully perform, comply with and abide by such agreements. It is further understood and agreed by Mortgagor that such representations and agreements by the other persons,
shall constitute for the purpose of its obligations hereunder, covenants on behalf of Mortgagor. 
 5.6 Limitation of
Interest. Mortgagee does not intend to violate any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, it being the intention of Mortgagee and Mortgagor to comply with the laws of the State of Idaho, with regard to the rate of interest charged hereunder, it
is agreed that, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Mortgage, the Note, or in any of the other Loan Documents, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount in excess of the maximum amount of
interest permitted by law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion of the indebtedness evidenced by this Mortgage, the Note, or any other Loan Documents (“Excess Interest”). If any
Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, in any of the Loan Documents, then in such event: 
 (i) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control: 
 (ii) Mortgagor shall not be obligated to pay
any Excess Interest; 
 (iii) any Excess Interest that Mortgagee may have received hereunder, at the option of Mortgagee,
shall be (a) applied as a credit against either the then outstanding principal balance due under the Note, or the accrued and unpaid interest thereon not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law, or both; (b) refunded to the pay or
thereof; or (c) any combination of the foregoing; 
  

 23 

 (iv) the applicable interest rate or rates shall be automatically subject to reduction
to the maximum lawful rate allowed to be contracted for in writing under the applicable usury laws of the aforesaid State, and the Note, and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such
reduction in such interest rate or rates; and 
 (v) Mortgagor shall not have any action or remedy against Mortgagee for any
damages whatsoever or any defense to enforcement of the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused these presents to be signed by its duly authorized representatives as of the date
first above written.

market as to which no notice shall he required, Secured Party will give Obligors reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, lease, or other disposition or of the time after which any private sale, lease, or other disposition is to
be made. Obligors agree that any such notice shall be sufficient if given at least five (5) days prior to such sale, lease, or other disposition. Secured Party may be a purchaser or lessee at any sale, lease, or other disposition. Secured Party
may pay the purchase price or the rentals at any sale, lease, or other disposition by crediting the amount of the purchase price or rentals against the Obligations.

 2. Change in Control: Remedy. In the event of a Change in Control, Secured Party shall be entitled
immediately to declare any or all Obligations to be immediately due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, and shall be entitled to be immediately paid in full from the proceeds of the Change in Control event,
consistent with its security position. So long as any portion of the Obligations remains unpaid, Obligors agree that they cannot enter into a Change in Control transaction without agreement with Secured Party, which agreement will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
 H. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. 
 After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and as permitted in this Agreement, all cash and checks included in the Collateral
and all proceeds of Collateral received by Secured Party will be applied by Secured Party to the Obligations, whether or not due, in the following order, subject to any Requirements: first, to reasonable costs incurred by Secured Party as a result
of such default; second, to any interest accrued but unpaid to Secured Party; and third, to unpaid principal. If application of the Collateral is not sufficient to pay the Obligations in full, Obligors shall remain obligated for the remaining
Obligations. Any proceeds of Collateral remaining after payment of the Obligations in full will be paid to Obligors, their successors or assigns, or as the law or a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. Any Collateral in the form of a check
shall be credited against the Obligations only upon the expiration of such period of time after receipt thereof by Secured Party as Secured Party determines is reasonably sufficient to allow for clearance or payment thereof. Any other Collateral
will be credited against the Obligations only upon conversion into cash and receipt of such cash by Secured Party. Each such credit shall, however, be conditional upon final payment to Secured Party of the item giving rise to such credit.

 I. CONTINUATION AND TERMINATION. 
 This Agreement shall continue in effect until payment and performance of the Obligations in full. Upon the occurrence of all events described in this Agreement shall terminate and Secured Party shall return any Collateral then held by
Secured Party to Obligors, their successors, or assigns, or as the law or a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
