MODIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS

 

This MODIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS (this “Agreement”) is made as of the 14th day of August, 2009, by and among by and among TEXTURA Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”) and FIRST MIDWEST BANK, its successors and assigns (the “Lender”).

 

R E C I T A L S :

 

A.                                    The Lender previously made a loan (the “Loan”) to Textura, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company (“Textura”) as predecessor to the Borrower in the maximum principal amount of TWELVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($12,000,000.00) pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Construction Loan Agreement dated as of August 14, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), between the Textura and the Lender (the “Loan Agreement”; any capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Loan Agreement), and as evidenced by a Promissory Note dated the Effective Date, in the maximum principal amount of the Loan made payable by the Borrower to the order of the Lender (the “Note”).

 

B.                                    The Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain Construction Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Leases and Fixture Filing dated as of the Effective Date, from Textura to the Lender recorded with the Recorder of Deeds of Cook County, Illinois (the “Recorder’s Office”) on August 15, 2007, as Document No. 0722733126 (the “Mortgage”), which Mortgage encumbers the real property and all improvements thereon

 











 

legally described on Exhibit “A” hereto (the “Property”); (ii) that certain Assignment of Rents and Leases dated as of the Effective Date from Textura to the Lender and recorded in the Recorder’s Office on August 15, 2007, as Document No. 0722733127 (the “Assignment of Rents”);  (iii) that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement dated the Effective Date from Textura and the Guarantor to the Lender (the “Indemnity Agreement”); and (iv) certain other loan documents (the Loan Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Rents, the Indemnity Agreement, the other documents evidencing, securing and guarantying the Loan, in their original form and as amended, are sometimes collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Loan Documents”).

 

C.                                    The Borrower, as successor to Textura pursuant to Articles of Merger dated September 27, 2007 filed with the Department of Financial Institutions of the State of Wisconsin on September 27, 2007 desires to amend the Loan Documents in order to, among other things, extend the Maturity Date to August 14, 2011, (ii) Modify the Loan Rate set forth in the Note and (iii) reduce the maximum principal amount of the Loan to ELEVEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY EIGHT THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($11,658,500.00).

 

A G R E E M E N T S :

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of (i) the facts set forth above (which are incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement), (ii) the agreements by the Lender to modify the Loan Documents, as provided in this Agreement, (iii) the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and (iv) for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.                                      Amended and Restated Promissory Note. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender an Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated even date herewith in the original principal amount of ELEVEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY EIGHT THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($11,658,500.00) (the “Amended and Restated Note”) made by the Borrower payable to the order of the Lender. Any references to the “Note” contained in any of the Loan Documents should be considered to refer to the Amended and Restated Note. The Amended and Restated Note (i) extends the Maturity Date to August 14, 2011, (ii) adjusts the Loan Rate to a daily rate equivalent of three percent (3.00%) in excess of the LIBOR Rate with a floor of five and one-half percent (5.50%), (iii) modify the repayment provisions and (iv) reduces the amount of the Loan to ELEVEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY EIGHT THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($11,658,500.00). The term “Maturity Date” as used in the Loan Documents is hereby amended to mean August 14, 2011. The term “Loan” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean the loan of ELEVEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED FIFTY EIGHT THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($11,658,500.00) evidenced by the Amended and Restated Note.

 

2.                                      Substitution of Borrower. Pursuant to the Articles of Merger dated September 27, 2007 filed with the Department of Financial Institutions of the State of Wisconsin on

 

2











 

September 27, 2007, Textura Corporation is the successor in interest to Textura, LLC. All references in the Loan Documents to Borrower or Textura shall mean Textura Corporation, a Delaware corporation.

Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Borrower shall not (i) make any material alterations in the Premises (as defined in the Mortgage) or (ii) demolish any portion of the Premises without the Lender’s prior written consent, except as required by law or municipal ordinance.
