Principal Amount: $85,400.00 Date of Note: February 16, 2021

PROMISE TO PAY. LF3 Southaven TRS, LLC ("Borrower") promises to pay to Western State Bank ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Eighty-five Thousand Four Hundred & 00/100 Dollars ($85,400.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance from February 16, 2021, until paid in full.

PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in accordance with the following payment schedule, which calculates Interest on the unpaid principal balances as described in the "INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD" paragraph using the interest rates described in this paragraph: 45 monthly consecutive principal and interest payments of $1,916.87 each, beginning June 3, 2022, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an interest rate of 1.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days; and one principal and interest payment of $1,916.10 on February 16, 2026, with interest calculated on the unpaid principal balances using an interest rate of 1.000% per annum based on a year of 360 days. This estimated final payment is based on the assumption that all payments will be made exactly as scheduled; the actual final payment will be for all principal and accrued interest not yet paid, together with any other unpaid amounts under this Note. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any late charges; then to any escrow or reserve account payments as required under any mortgage, deed of trust, or other security instrument or security agreement securing this Note; and then to any unpaid collection costs. Borrower wlll pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing. All payments must be made in U.S. dollars and must be' received by Lender consistent with any written payment instructions provided by Lender. If a payment is made consistent with Lender's payment instructions but received after West Fargo/Fargo: 7:00 PM Central Standard Time; Devils Lake: 6:00 PM Central Standard Time, Lender will credit Borrower's payment on the next business day.

INTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note ls computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All interest payable under this Note is computed using this method.

PREPAYMENT. Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it ts due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the prlnclpal balance due and may result In Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked "paid In full", "without recourse", or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it  without  losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment Instrument that Indicates that the payment constitutes "payment In full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: Western State Bank, West Fargo, P.O. Box 617, 755 13th Ave E, West Fargo, ND 58078.

LATE CHARGE.       If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly  scheduled

payment or $25.00, whichever Is greater.

INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, the interest rate qn this Note shall be increased by adding an additional 3.000 percentage point margin ("Default Rate Margin"). The Default Rate Margin shall also apply to each succeeding interest rate change that would have applied had there been no default.
