2014 (the “Effective Date”), by and between U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a
national banking association (the "Bank"), and M/I HOMES, INC., an Ohio
corporation (the "Company").

1.
Letter of Credit Facility.

1.1.    Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Bank, upon the
proper application by the Company, will issue standby letters of credit in the
form of Exhibit "A" attached hereto, or such other form as the Bank may approve
from time to time (each, a "Letter of Credit" and collectively, “Letters of
Credit”), provided that the aggregate stated value of Letters of Credit issued
hereunder and under the Superseded Agreements (as hereinafter defined)
outstanding at any one time shall in no event exceed $10,000,000.00 (the
"Facility"), and provided, further, that all Letters of Credit issued under this
Section 1.1 shall expire not later than thirty-seven (37) months from the date
of issuance. The Company's right to obtain the issuance of Letters of Credit
under the Facility shall terminate on September 30, 2015.

Each request for a Letter of Credit submitted by the Company shall, at the
option of the Bank, be accompanied by the following materials (collectively, the
"LC Application Materials"):
a.
An application (the "Application") in the form of Exhibit "B" attached hereto
and made a part hereof, or such other form as the Bank may require from time to
time;

b.
Cash (the "Cash Collateral") in an amount equal to not less than 101% of the
face amount of the applicable Letter of Credit, which the Bank shall deposit in
an Account (hereinafter defined);

c.
Such information as the Bank reasonably requests regarding the intended use of
the Letter of Credit;

d.
Such other documents or materials as the Bank may request from time to time.

With respect to each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Company
shall present the LC Application Materials to the Bank not later than noon,
Columbus, Ohio time, on a Business Day that is not less than four (4) Business
Days prior to the Business Day on which issuance of the Letter of Credit is
desired. "Business Day" means a day which is not a Saturday or Sunday or a legal
holiday and on which the Bank is not required by law or other governmental
action to close in Ohio.
 
Each Letter of Credit issued by the Bank shall be deemed issued subject to the
following:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a.
The executed reimbursement agreement (the "Reimbursement Agreement") dated July
27, 2009, and attached hereto as Exhibit "C"; and

b.
The executed security agreement (the "Security Agreement") dated July 27, 2009,
and attached hereto as Exhibit "D".

At the request of the Company, and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Bank shall issue Letters of Credit on behalf of one or more
Company Subsidiaries (hereinafter defined), provided, however, that the
applicable Company Subsidiary(ies) and the Company shall be jointly and
severally liable for all obligations pursuant to this Agreement, the
Reimbursement Agreement, and the other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything in the Reimbursement Agreement to the contrary, to the
extent that any provision of this Agreement or the Security Agreement is
inconsistent with the Reimbursement Agreement, the terms of this Agreement and
the Security Agreement shall prevail. Specifically, without limitation: (i) the
security interest granted by the Company to the Bank pursuant to the
Reimbursement Agreement shall be limited to the Collateral (as defined in the
Security Agreement), and the Bank shall not file any financing statement that
contains a collateral description that is broader than such definition of
Collateral, and (ii) except for the Collateral and the Cash Collateral, as to
which the Bank’s rights shall include all rights contained in this Agreement,
the Reimbursement Agreement and the Security Agreement, the Bank shall not set
off or apply any deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final) at any time held or other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank to or
for the credit or the account of the Company.

1.2    Account(s). The Bank shall deposit the Cash Collateral in one or more
accounts at the Bank specified in the Security Agreement (each, an "Account").
Each Account shall be an interest bearing account (unless the Company requests a
non-interest bearing account) satisfactory to the Bank, including as of the
Effective Date, without limitation, money market accounts and commercial paper
open accounts. The Cash Collateral applicable to a given Letter of Credit shall
be held in the Account until the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a draw
pursuant to the Letter of Credit, or (b) the expiration of the Letter of Credit.
Upon the expiration of a Letter of Credit, provided that no draws have been made
upon such Letter of Credit, Bank shall remit to the Company an amount equal to
the Cash Collateral together with any interest earned thereon.

1.3    Letter of Credit Draws. In the event that the Bank pays any sum (a "LC
Draw Amount") drawn by the beneficiary of an outstanding Letter of Credit (a "LC
Draw"), interest shall immediately start to accrue on the LC Draw Amount at the
Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate (hereinafter defined), and such interest shall
continue to accrue until reimbursement in full to the Bank. In the event that
the LC Draw Amount (together with accrued interest) has not been repaid to Bank
within ten (10) Business Days, then the Bank may, without further notice to the
Company and at Bank’s sole option, reimburse itself from the Account applicable
to the Letter of Credit. In the event that the funds contained in the Account
are not sufficient to reimburse the Bank for the LC Draw Amount plus accrued
interest, the Bank shall have the right to declare any remaining funds due and
payable by written notice to the Company. Such funds shall continue to bear
interest at the Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate until fully repaid by the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.
Interest Rate; Fees.

2.1.    Adjusted One Month LIBOR Rate. As used herein, "Adjusted One Month LIBOR
Rate" shall mean an annual rate equal to two and one-half percent (2.50%) plus
the greater of: (a) the One-Month LIBOR Rate, or (b) one and one-half percent
(1.50%). "One Month LIBOR Rate" shall mean the one-month LIBOR rate quoted by
the Bank from Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any successor thereto, which shall
be that one-month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to the
Reprice Date, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs
arising from a change in government regulation, such rate rounded up to the
nearest one-sixteenth percent and such rate to be reset monthly on each Reprice
Date. The term "New York Banking Day" means any date (other than a Saturday or
Sunday) on which commercial banks are open for business in New York, New York.
The term "Reprice Date" means the first day of each month. If an LC Draw occurs
other than on the Reprice Date, the initial one-month LIBOR rate shall be that
one-month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to the date of
the LC Draw, which rate plus the percentage described above shall be in effect
until the next Reprice Date. Lender’s internal records of applicable interest
rates shall be determinative in the absence of manifest error.

2.2.    Fees, Costs, Expenses. In consideration of the issuance of each Letter
of Credit, the Company agrees to pay to the Bank, for the sole benefit of the
Bank, Bank's customary letter of credit negotiation and documentation fees
(which fees shall not exceed $500.00 for each Letter of Credit), all such fees
being due and payable at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit.

With respect to the period through September 30, 2014, the Company also agrees
to pay to the Bank a fee (which shall accrue on a daily basis, but be due and
payable quarterly in arrears upon the issuance of a statement to the Company by
the Bank) equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to an annualized rate of one
and one-half percent (1.50%) on the daily outstanding balance of all Letters of
Credit pursuant to the Facility during such calendar quarter; and (b) an amount
equal to an annualized rate of one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) on the daily
unused portion of the Facility during such calendar quarter (i.e.,
$10,000,000.00 minus the daily outstanding balance of all Letters of Credit
pursuant to the Facility).
    
With respect to the period after September 30, 2014 through September 30, 2015,
the Company also agrees to pay to the Bank a fee (which shall accrue on a daily
basis, but be due and payable quarterly in arrears upon the issuance of a
statement to the Company by the Bank) equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to
an annualized rate of one and one-half percent (1.50%) on the daily outstanding
balance of all Letters of Credit pursuant to the Facility during such calendar
quarter; and (b) an amount equal to an annualized rate of one-quarter of one
percent (0.25%) on the daily unused portion of the Facility during such calendar
quarter (i.e., $10,000,000.00 minus the daily outstanding balance of all Letters
of Credit pursuant to the Facility).

With respect to the period following September 30, 2015, the Company shall, in
addition, pay to the Bank a variable fee (which shall be due and payable
quarterly in arrears upon the issuance of a statement to the Company by the
Bank) equal to an annualized rate of one and one-half percent (1.50%) on the
average daily outstanding balance of all Letters of Credit pursuant to the
Facility

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

during such calendar quarter; such quarterly payments shall continue until a
quarter occurs when there are no such outstanding Letters of Credit.
    
Additionally, the Company agrees to pay on demand by the Bank all other
reasonable and actual costs and expenses incidental to or incurred in connection
with (a) the Facility and the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (as hereinafter defined), and any subsequent amendments or
modifications thereof, (b) the enforcement of the rights of the Bank in
connection therewith, and (c) any litigation, contest, dispute, proceeding or
action in any way relating to the Collateral (as hereinafter defined), this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, whether any of the foregoing are incurred
prior to or after maturity, the occurrence of an Event of Default, or the
rendering of a judgment. Such costs and expenses shall include, but not be
limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Bank.
All indebtedness, debts and liabilities, including, without limitation,
principal, interest, indemnification obligations, prepayment fees, late charges,
collection costs, attorneys' fees and expenses, of the Company to the Bank
arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
are hereafter referred to collectively as the "Obligations.")

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in Section 6.1, the
payment of any fees, costs and expenses set forth in this Section 2.2 may be
charged (via automatic debit) by the Bank to any Account.

All fees shall be fully earned by the Bank, as applicable, pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Agreement on the due date thereof and, except as
otherwise set forth herein or required by applicable law, shall not be subject
to rebate, refund or proration. All fees provided for in this Section 2.2 shall
be deemed to be for compensation for services and are not, and shall not be
deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention
of money.

2.3     Letter of Credit Reserves. If any change in any law or regulation or in
the interpretation or application thereof by any court or other governmental
authority charged with the administration thereof shall either (a) impose,
modify, deem or make applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or
similar requirements against Letters of Credit issued by the Bank, or (b) impose
on the Bank any other condition regarding this Agreement or the Facility, and
the result of any event referred to in clause (a) or (b) above shall be to
increase the cost to the Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or
the Facility (which increase in cost shall be the result of the Bank's
reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such cost increases resulting from
such events), then, upon demand by the Bank, the Company shall immediately pay
to the Bank additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate the Bank
for such increased cost, together with interest on each such amount from the
date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per annum equal to the
Adjusted Daily LIBOR Rate. A certificate as to such increased cost incurred by
the Bank, submitted by the Bank to the Company, shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error, as to the amount thereof. This provision shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until
there is no existing or future obligation of the Bank under any Letter of
Credit.

2.4    Further Assurances. The Company hereby agrees to do and perform any and
all acts and to execute any and all further instruments reasonably requested by
the Bank more fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement and the issuance of
Letters of Credit hereunder, and further agrees

connection with the obtaining and/or maintaining of any insurance coverage
applicable to any Letter of Credit.

3. Warranties and Representations. In order to induce the Bank to enter into
this Agreement and to make the Facility available to the Company, the Company
warrants and represents to the Bank that each of the following statements is
true and correct:

3.1.    Corporate Organization and Authority. The Company (a) is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
State of Ohio; (b) has all requisite corporate power and authority and all
necessary licenses and permits to own and operate its properties and to carry on
its business as now conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted; and (c)
is not doing business or conducting any activity in any jurisdiction in which it
has not duly qualified and become authorized to do business, except where the
failure to so qualify will not have a Material Adverse Effect. "Material Adverse
Effect" means a material adverse effect upon (i) the business (present or
future), condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance or
properties of the Company, (ii) the ability of the Company to perform its
obligations under this Agreement, the Reimbursement Agreement, the Security
Agreement and/or the other documents contemplated herein or therein and/or
executed in connection herewith or therewith, any mortgage, any guaranty, or any
other agreement or instrument (collectively, the "Loan Documents"), or (iii) the
rights and remedies of the Bank under the Loan Documents.

3.2.    Borrowing is Legal and Authorized. (a) The Executive Committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery
of the Loan Documents, and the Loan Documents constitute valid and binding
obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their respective
terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally; and (b) the execution of the
Loan Documents and the compliance by the Company with the applicable provisions
thereof (i) are within the corporate powers of the Company, and (ii) are legal
and will not conflict with, result in any breach in any of the provisions of,
constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien or encumbrance
upon any property of the Company under the provisions of, any agreement, charter
instrument, bylaw or other instrument to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound.
3.3.    Taxes. All tax returns required to be filed by the Company in any
jurisdiction have in fact been filed, and all taxes, estimated payments,
assessments, fees and other governmental charges or levies upon the Company, or
upon any of its property or assets or in respect of its franchises, businesses
or income, which are due and payable have been paid, except those (a) contested
in good faith by the Company, by appropriate proceedings diligently instituted
and conducted, and (b) with respect to which any reserve or other appropriate
provision, as shall be required in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied ("GAAP"), shall have been made therefor. The
Company does not know of any proposed additional tax assessment against it. The
accruals for taxes on the books of the Company for its current fiscal period are
adequate.

3.4.    Compliance with Law. The Company is not in violation of any laws,
ordinances, governmental rules or regulations to which it is subject, except to
the extent that such a violation or failure does not have or is not likely to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.5.    Litigation; Adverse Effects. There is no action, suit, audit,
proceeding, administrative proceeding, investigation or arbitration (or series
of related actions, suits, audits, proceedings, investigations or arbitrations)
before or by any governmental authority or private arbitrator pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any property of the
Company challenging the validity or the enforceability of any of the Loan
Documents, or which, if adversely determined, shall have or is reasonably likely
to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company is not subject to or in default
with respect to any final judgment, writ, injunction, restraining order or order
of any nature, decree, rule or regulation of any court or governmental
authority, in each case which shall have or is likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

3.6.    No Insolvency. On the date of this Agreement and after giving effect to
all indebtedness of the Company, the Company (a) will be able to pay its
obligations as they become due and payable; (b) has assets, the present fair
saleable value of which exceeds the amount that will be required to pay its
probable liability on its obligations as the same become absolute and matured;
(c) has sufficient property, the sum of which at a fair valuation exceeds all of
the Company's indebtedness; and (d) will have sufficient capital to engage in
its business. The determination of the foregoing for the Company takes into
account all of the Company's properties and liabilities, regardless of whether,
or the amount at which, any such property or liability is included on a balance
sheet of the Company prepared in accordance with GAAP, including property such
as contingent contribution or subrogation rights, business prospects and
goodwill. The determination of the sum of the Company's properties at the
present fair salable value has been made on a going concern basis.

3.7.    Government Consent. Neither the nature of the Company or of its business
or properties, nor any relationship between the Company and any other entity or
person, nor any circumstance in connection with the execution of this Agreement,
is such as to require a consent, approval or authorization of, or filing,
registration or qualification with, any governmental authority on the part of
the Company as a condition to the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents.

3.8.    No Defaults. No event has occurred and no condition exists which would
constitute an Event of Default pursuant to this Agreement. The Company is not in
violation in any respect of any term of any material agreement, charter
instrument, bylaw or other material instrument to which it is a party or by
which it may be bound, which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.9.    Warranties and Representations. On the date of the issuance of any
Letter of Credit pursuant to the Facility, the warranties and representations
set forth in this Section 3 shall be true and correct on and as of such date
with the same effect as though such warranties and representations had been made

representations expressly relate to an earlier date.

of this Agreement until terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or
so long as any of the indebtedness provided for herein remains unpaid:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.1.    Payment of Taxes. The Company shall pay all taxes, estimated payments,
assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or its property
or assets or in respect of any of its franchises, businesses, income or property
before any penalty or interest accrues thereon; provided, however, that no such
taxes, estimated payments, assessments and governmental charges are required to
be paid if being contested in good faith by the Company, by appropriate
proceedings diligently instituted and conducted, without any of the same
becoming a lien upon the Cash Collateral, and if such reserve or other
appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in accordance with GAAP,
shall have been made therefor.
  
4.2.    Maintenance of Properties and Corporate Existence. The Company shall do
or cause to be done all things necessary (i) to preserve and keep in full force

wholly-owned subsidiaries and conducts business only in the name of the Company.
The Company will promptly notify the Bank upon the creation of any additional
Company Subsidiaries; provided, that so long as Bank is a lender in the
Company’s primary credit agreement, notices to Bank as lender as required under
such credit agreement of the creation of any additional Company Subsidiaries

contrary, Bank shall not demand compensation for any reduction referred to in

extent permitted by law and the like) of Debtor to Bank in connection with

otherwise dispose of the Account or any portion thereof. Bank shall be entitled

act or failure to act, except for Bank's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

or in the performance of any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of any
instrument or document evidencing the Obligations secured by this agreement or

continuing; or if any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to

furnished; or if Bank shall, in the exercise of commercially reasonable
judgment, deem itself insecure as to the prospect of payment of any of the
Obligations:

or all of the Obligations immediately due and payable and this agreement and any
or all of the Obligations in default and may immediately apply any or all of the

Collateral from any of the depositories designated above. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, Debtor waives all claims, damages and demands
against Bank arising out of Bank's collection, receipt, retention or disposition
of the Collateral including, but not limited to, any claim based upon the early
withdrawal or redemption of the Collateral by Bank. Debtor shall remain liable
for any deficiency if the Collateral is insufficient to pay all amounts to which
Bank is entitled. Debtor shall also be liable for the costs of collecting any of
the Obligations or otherwise enforcing the terms thereof or of this agreement
including reasonable attorneys' fees to the extent permitted by law.
6.    General. Debtor agrees that if Bank is the depository for any Account,
Bank may reduce the rate of interest on such Account, at any time and from time
to time, in order to comply with any laws or regulations, including those that
require the rate of interest applicable to any Obligation to exceed any rate of
interest payable with respect to such Account. Any provision of this agreement
which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Bank shall not be
deemed to have waived any of its rights hereunder or under any other agreement,
instrument or paper signed by Debtor unless such waiver be in writing and signed
by Bank. No delay or omission on the part of Bank in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. All of Bank's rights and
remedies, whether evidenced hereby or by any other agreement, instrument or
paper, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Any
written demand upon or written notice to the Debtor shall be given in accordance
with the Loan Agreement shall be effective when deposited in the mails addressed
to the Debtor at the address shown at the beginning of this Agreement. This
agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder, including matters of
construction, validity and performance, shall be governed by the law of the
State of Ohio. The provisions hereof shall, as the case may require, bind or
inure to the benefit of, the respective heirs, successors, legal representatives
and assigns of Debtor and Bank..
