Property can be reconfigured to accommodate an additional lot in Phase II) in two phases, the first phase of which (Phase I) will consist of 18 single family housing lots (singularly, a Single Family Lot and if referring to
more than one, the Single Family Lots) and 38 townhouse lots (singularly a Townhouse Lot and if referring to more than one, the Townhouse Lots), and the second phase of which (Phase II) will consist of 19
Single Family Lots and 35 Townhouse Lots which may include, in Phase II, three (3) Townhouse Lots with improvements intended to qualify as affordable dwelling units (ADU). The delineation of Phase I and Phase II are as shown on the

AGREEMENT

ACCORDINGLY, for and in consideration of the foregoing Recitals which are a material part of this Agreement and not mere prefatory
language, and of the mutual covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Lender and the Borrower agree as follows:

SECTION ONE

THE DEVELOPMENT LOAN

1.1 Amount. The maximum principal amount that may be advanced under the Development Loan shall not exceed the lesser of (i) Ten Million Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($10,400,000.00), or (ii) seventy-five percent (75%) of total Development costs of Phase I and Phase II, or (iii) fifty-two percent (52%) of the discounted (When Developed) value of the Property pursuant to the
Appraisal (hereinafter defined) and any

appraisals which may be engaged by the Lender from time to time subsequent to the date hereof. The maximum principal amount that may be outstanding at any one time under the Development Loan
shall not exceed (i) for Phase I, Six Million and No/100 Dollars ($6,000,000.00) and for Phase II, Four Million Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($4,400,000.00). The Development Loan will be evidenced by a Revolving Development Loan
Promissory Note made by the Borrower payable to the order of the Lender (as the same may be amended, renewed, restated, supplemented or substituted from time to time, the Development Loan Note) which shall be governed by Maryland law.

1.2 Purpose. The Borrower will use the Development Loan proceeds for Development of Phase I and Phase II in accordance
with a budget therefor which shall have been approved by the Lender in advance and in accordance with plans and specifications to be submitted to and approved by the Lender, and with advances to be made as the work progresses, all as set forth in
this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term Development shall mean, generally, (a) lot clearing and rough grading; (b) provision of storm drainage structures and facilities, sediment control devices, base paving of
streets, curbs and gutters; (c) providing sewer and water distribution systems and erecting temporary street signs; (d) provision of underground electric and gas utility lines, cable pedestals and vaults adjacent to Lot lines;
(e) other subdivision improvements as required by governmental authorities in order for use and occupancy permits to issue; and (f) final site plan and subdivision approvals for each Phase. Certain other costs normally considered part of
development costs shall be deferred and paid for by the Borrower out of its own funds, including by way of example and not limitation, final paving of streets, site amenities, landscaping and erosion control (the Deferred Development
Costs).

1.3 Conditions to Advances for Phase II. In addition to the other terms and conditions for making
advances of loan proceeds under this Agreement, until thirty-seven (37) Units in Phase I have been completed and sold to third-party purchasers, and the release fees set forth in Section 3.8 have been paid to the Lender for each of
those thirty-seven Units, and as a result thereof the outstanding principal balance of the Development Loan has been reduced to zero (the foregoing, the Phase II Advance Conditions), the Lender shall only be obligated to advance
proceeds of the Development Loan for Development of Phase I. After the Borrower has met all of the Phase II Advance Conditions, then the Borrower thereafter may use the Development Loan proceeds for Development of Phase II. The maximum amount that
may be advanced for Development of Phase I is Six Million and No/100 Dollars ($6,000,000.00), and the maximum amount that may be advanced and/or re-advanced for Development of Phase II is Four Million Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($4,400,000.00).

1.4 Development Loan Interest Reserve. From the proceeds of the Development Loan, Eight Hundred
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($800,000.00) shall not be disbursed but shall be reserved by the Lender for the payment of interest on the Development Loan (the Interest Reserve) until such reserve is exhausted. Of the foregoing amount,
Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($400,000.00) is allocated to Phase I and the balance is allocated to Phase II. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Lender shall not be obligated to make
any disbursements from the Interest Reserve if any Event of Default shall have occurred (including without limitation any failure to meet the Sales and Curtailment Schedule set forth below which failure is not cured by payment of the amount
necessary to satisfy the curtailment component thereof), and further, notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of any of the Loan Documents to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to release or in any way to relieve the
Borrower from its obligation under the Development Loan Note to pay interest as provided in the Development Loan Note. Each disbursement from the Interest Reserve shall constitute a disbursement of principal of the Development Loan and shall be
added to the then outstanding principal balance of the Development Loan.

1.5 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the
Lender a fee for the Development Loan in the amount of One Hundred Four Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($104,000.00), payable upon closing of the Loans. The Lender acknowledges receipt from the Borrower of Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars
($25,000.00), for application to the Lenders third-party costs incurred in connection with the Loans (including without limitation fees of appraisers, consultants and legal counsel), any unused balance of which may be applied to the foregoing
Development Loan fee.

2.1 Amount. The maximum principal amount
that may be advanced under the Construction Loan shall not exceed Four Million and No/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00). The Construction Loan will be evidenced by a Revolving Construction Loan Promissory Note made by the Borrower payable to the order of
the Lender (as the same may be amended, renewed, restated, supplemented or substituted from time to time, the Construction Loan Note) which shall be governed by Maryland law.

2.2 Purpose. The Borrower will use the Construction Loan proceeds for the purpose of building (the Construction)
Single Family Units and Townhouse Units in accordance with a budget therefor which shall have been approved by the Lender in advance and in accordance with plans and specifications to be submitted to and approved by the Lender, and with advances to
be made as the work progresses, all as set forth in this Agreement. The overall Construction budget shall include and be consistent with the total costs per type of Unit that are to be set forth on Exhibit B (the Unit Costs
Budget), which shall be agreed by the parties and attached hereto prior to and as a condition of the first advance of Construction Loan proceeds.

2.3 LTV Limitation. In addition to the limitation set forth in Section 2.1 above, the maximum amount that may be disbursed under the Construction Loan per Unit shall be limited to seventy-five
percent (75%) of the loan-to-value ratio of each Unit based upon appraised value of each Unit type and the Lot thereon pursuant to an appraisal of the as complete value of each Unit type satisfactory to the Lender in all respects.
For purposes of this Section 2.3, the loan-to-value ratio of each Unit shall be calculated, expressed as a fraction, the numerator of which shall be $107,145.00 (being the amount allocated per Lot from the Development Loan) plus the budgeted
cost for that type of Unit set forth in the Unit Costs Budget, and the denominator of which shall be the appraised value thereof. The numerator of the aforesaid fraction shall be divided by the denominator thereof in order to result in the
loan-to-value being expressed as a percentage.

2.4 Construction Limitation. At no time shall the Borrower be permitted
to have under Construction more than (A) up to six (6) Single Family Units, of which at least three (3) must be subject to sales contracts acceptable to the Lender, one (1) may be speculative and two (2) may be model homes,
and (B) up to twelve (12) Townhouse Units, of which at least five (5) must be subject to sales contracts acceptable to the Lender, five (5) may be speculative and two (2) may be model homes. Upon completion and sale of any
one or more of the foregoing types of Units from time to time, and payment of the Release Payment set forth in Section 3.8 below, funds repaid pursuant to Section 3.8 below may be readvanced under the Construction Loan subject to the
foregoing limitation on the number and type of Units that may be under Construction at any one time, which shall again apply.

2.5 No Interest Reserve. The Borrower shall be obligated to pay interest as provided in the Construction Loan Note.

2.6 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fee for the Construction Loan in the amount of $1,350.00 for each Single Family
Unit and $1,025.00 for each Townhouse Unit. The fee will be payable with the first advance of Construction Loan proceeds for each Unit.

SECTION THREE

PARTICULAR TERMS OF BOTH LOANS

3.1 Guarantor. Comstock Homebuilding Companies, Inc. (the Guarantor) shall guarantee the payment and performance of
the Borrowers obligations, covenants and agreements under the Loans, as evidenced by the Loan Documents, including completion of each Phase, and shall also guarantee the Carve Out Obligations (defined on Exhibit C attached hereto),
which guaranty shall be evidenced by an instrument of unlimited and unconditional guaranty of payment, performance and completion from the Guarantor for the benefit of the Lender, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender (the
Guaranty).

3.2 Term. Each of the Development Loan Note and the Construction Loan Note
(collectively, the Notes) shall mature upon the earlier of (i) thirty-six (36) months after the date of closing on the Loan or (ii) the occurrence of a Transfer (as defined in Section 7.15 hereof) (the
Maturity). It is acknowledged and agreed that notwithstanding any provisions herein, the Borrower has not applied for, nor has the Lender made any commitment with respect to, any extension of such Maturity. Upon any application for an
extension, any approval of an extension on any terms would be contingent upon the usual and customary underwriting procedures of EagleBank, including without limitation, the approval of the loan committee of EagleBank.

3.3 Interest Rate. Commencing on the closing of the Loans, the unpaid balance of each of the Notes outstanding from time to time
shall bear interest and be payable at the floating rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) above the thirty (30) day LIBOR Rate (hereinafter defined), rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest one-eighth of one percent (0.125%). The
LIBOR rate means, for each calendar month, the annualized weighted average of the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rates (at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time) for U.S. Dollar transactions on the day that is two (2) business days prior
to the first day of that calendar month, as reported by Bloomberg Business News; if Bloomberg Business News is not available, the Lender shall select a similar source for the LIBOR index and shall notify the Borrower of such selection.
Notwithstanding the above, in no event shall either of the Notes bear interest at a rate below the floor interest rate of five and three-quarters percent (5.75%) per annum at any time (the Interest Rate Floor).

3.4 Collateral. The Loans shall be secured by, among other things, the following:



| | (i) | A first lien deed of trust, security agreement and fixture filing (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or substituted, the Deed of Trust) on

---

aggregate deposit balance with the Lender of ten percent (10%) of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans, tested semi-annually, with the first test period being
October 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013. Such deposits shall be held in demand deposits or money market accounts. If at any time under any of the Loan Documents the Lender is collecting deposits for the payment of insurance premiums and/or real
estate taxes, the amount(s) on deposit, to the extent unapplied as of the date of any such semi-annual test, shall be counted toward the foregoing deposit balance requirements. The foregoing deposit balance requirement is in addition to any deposit
balance requirement under the terms of the loan documents for any other loan or loans by the Lender to the Borrower, the Guarantor or any affiliate(s) of the Borrower or the Guarantor. The failure to comply with the foregoing deposit balance
requirements shall not constitute a default under the Loans; however, interest shall accrue on all amounts outstanding under the Loans at one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) plus the rate of interest then payable under the Notes (and the Interest
Rate Floor shall also increase by one-quarter of one percent (0.25%)) from the date of such failure until such time as the deposit balance requirement is satisfied at the next semi-annual test.

3.7. Lot Sales Requirement. (a) As a condition of the Loans, the Borrower shall diligently pursue Development of the Lots and
Construction and sale of the Units thereon. In addition, the Borrower (i) shall enter into and close under sales contracts to third parties on the following number of Lots with completed Units thereon, (ii) resulting in the cumulative
curtailments of the Development Loan set forth below, (iii) by each Milestone Date set forth below (the Sales and Curtailment Requirement):



|                            |  |                                            |              |  |                             |              |                |

(b) Such sales contracts shall be acceptable to the Lender in all respects, provided that the Lender
shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any sales contract for a Lot with a completed Unit that will result in a payment against principal under the Development Loan from sales proceeds of at least One Hundred Sixty-One Thousand and No/100
Dollars ($161,000.00) per Unit for Phase I and at least One Hundred Twenty-Two Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($122,500.00) per Unit for Phase II.

(c) Failure of the Borrower to comply with the Sales and Curtailment Requirement shall, at the Lenders option, constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that the
Lender agrees that it will not elect to call an Event of Default if the Borrower pays to the Lender, by the applicable Milestone Date, the amount necessary for the required Cumulative Curtailment of the Development Loan, as set forth in the
foregoing chart on the same line as for that Milestone Date, to be satisfied as of that Milestone Date (the Substitute Curtailment Payment). Payment of the Substitute Curtailment Payment shall not, however, entitle the Borrower to the
release of any Lots from the lien of the Deed of Trust. No Lots or Units shall be released except pursuant to settlement on a bona fide sale to a third party pursuant to Section 3.8 below.

(d) The Borrower shall provide to the Lender marketing and sales reports on a monthly basis setting forth the status of marketing, sales
contracts and closings or settlements in such detail as the Lender may reasonably require.

3.8 Release Provisions. The
Deed of Trust shall contain the following provision for release of Lots and/or Units from the lien thereof:

Provided
that the Grantor requests the release of one of the Lots with a completed Unit thereon from the lien of this Deed of Trust prior to the repayment in full of the Loans, and provided that the sales contract with



5



---

respect to such Lot and/or Unit is in the form approved by the Beneficiary and at a minimum price set forth in the Loan Agreement, or if not set forth then otherwise satisfactory to the
Beneficiary in its discretion, then the Beneficiary agrees to release the lien of this Deed of Trust with respect to any one of the Lots and/or Units, upon Grantors written request, upon the following terms and conditions:



| | (a) | With respect to any Lot and completed Unit thereon in Phase I, payment of a Release Payment for each Lot and Unit to be released equal to the greater of:
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(i) $190,000.00 per Single Family Unit or $150,000.00 per Townhouse Unit plus one hundred percent (100%) of
the total hard and soft costs advanced from the Construction Loan for Construction of the Unit, or

(ii) one hundred percent
(100%) of the Net Settlement Proceeds (hereinafter defined), or

(iii) ninety percent (90%) of the sales price under
the sales contract being settled.

The Release Payment will be applied by the Lender first to the costs advanced from the
Construction Loan for Construction of the Unit and the remainder will be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Development Loan. Net Settlement Proceeds means the gross sales price of the Lot less customary and usual
settlement charges and real estate commissions approved by the Beneficiary, without payment of any sums to the Grantor or any affiliated person or entity of the Grantor;



| | (b) | With respect to any Lot and completed Unit thereon in Phase II, payment of a Release Payment for each Lot and Unit to be released equal to the greater of:
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(i) $122,500 per Unit plus one hundred percent (100%) of the total hard and soft costs advanced from the
Construction Loan for Construction of the Unit, or

(ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Settlement Proceeds, or

(iii) ninety percent (90%) of the sales price under the sales contract being settled.

The Release Payment will be applied by the Lender first to the costs advanced from the Construction Loan for Construction of the Unit and
the remainder will be applied to the outstanding principal balance under the Development Loan;



| | (c) | No Event of Default shall then exist and be continuing;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | The Grantor pays all fees, costs, charges and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees) relating to the preparation, execution and
recordation of any document required in connection with any such partial release; and
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | The Grantor pays a fee in the amount of One Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($100.00) for processing the request for release (Processing Fee); provided, however,
that the Processing Fee will be waived in the event the purchaser under the sales contract acquires the Lot and/or Unit using EagleBank as its mortgage lender for the purchase money of the Lot and/or Unit.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no release price shall be payable for the release of streets or roadways, or storm water maintenance or other public
facilities, that are to be dedicated to the District of Columbia for public maintenance, provided the same are in accordance with a site plan that shall have been approved by the Beneficiary.

3.9 Intercreditor Agreement. It is understood that, contemporaneously herewith, the Borrower has borrowed Three Million and No/100
Dollars ($3,000,000.00) (the Subordinate Loan) from Rosalie K. Stahl Trust (Subordinated Lender). As a condition of closing the Loan, Subordinated Lender shall enter into a Subordination and Standstill Agreement with the
Lender, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender in all respects, pursuant to which Subordinated Lender shall subordinate all of its rights in and to the Subordinate Loan to the Lenders rights, remedies and security under the Loan
Documents.

Engineer). The Borrower shall comply with all recommendations contained in the Phase II Report and any supplemental recommendations of the Phase II Engineer or of any environmental engineer retained by the Lender with respect to testing,
placement and/or removal of fill material from the Property. The Lender shall have the right to retain environmental engineers and/or consultants from time to time for purposes of testing and recommendations with respect to the fill material and its
placement and/or removal and disposal off-site, and the Borrower shall comply with any additional recommendations or requirements with respect thereto (Additional Recommendations). The Borrower shall keep appropriate records of the means
and location of disposal of the fill material. It will be a condition of disbursements of the Development Loan that the Phase II Engineer and any other environmental engineer and/or consultant certify to the Lender that the Borrower has complied
with the recommendations contained in the Phase II Report and any such other Additional Recommendations.

3.11 Home Owners
Association. In the event the Borrower intends to establish a home owners association for either or both of Phase I and/or Phase II, the organizational and governing documents, and all rules and regulations related thereto, shall be subject to
