2. Thereafter, any of the provisions of any such recorded master form mortgage or deed of trust may be included for any and all purposes in any mortgage or deed of trust by reference therein to any such provisions, without setting them forth in full, if such master form mortgage or deed of trust is of record in the county in which the mortgage or deed of trust adopting or including by reference any of the provisions of such master form mortgage or deed of trust is recorded.

(d) By paragraph numbers or any other method that will definitely identify such provisions, the specific provisions of any such master form mortgage or deed of trust that are being so adopted and included therein.

4. The recording of any such mortgage or deed of trust which has included therein any such provisions by reference as provided in this section shall operate as constructive notice of the whole of such mortgage or deed of trust, including the terms, as a part of the written contents of any such mortgage or deed of trust, of any such provisions so included by reference as though such provisions were written in full therein.

5. The parties bound or to be bound by provisions so adopted and included by reference shall be bound thereby in the same manner and with like effect for all purposes as though such provisions had been and were set forth in full in any such mortgage or deed of trust.
