SECTION I:  THE LOAN


 


1.01 Disbursement of the Loan. Subject to the terms hereof, Bank will credit the proceeds of the revolving Loan advanced from time to time to the Borrower's deposit account with the Bank or, at Bank's discretion, to other depository accounts designated by Borrower.


 


1.02 General Terms. Subject to the terms hereof and the Note (defined below), the Bank will lend the Borrower, from time to time during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on September 1, 2011, such sums as the Borrower may request by draw (“Draw”) request to the Bank, received by the Bank not less than two (2) banking days before Bank is requested to fund such Draw and which shall not exceed, in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding, an amount (the “Loan Commitment”) equal to the lesser of $3,400,000.00 or the Borrowing Base, defined in Section 1.06.  Borrower may borrow, repay without penalty or premium and reborrow hereunder, from the Effective Date until September 29, 2011, either the full amount of the Loan Commitment or any lesser sum. It is the intention of the parties that the outstanding principal amount of the Loan shall at no time exceed the amount of the then existing Borrowing Base, and if, at any time, an excess shall for any reason exist, the full amount of such excess, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as herein provided, shall be immediately due and payable in full.

This Loan will be secured inter alia by Pledged Mortgage Paper (hereinafter defined) which shall at all times during the term of the loan have an aggregate outstanding principal balance equal to at least 154% of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.


 


1.03 Draws. Draws will be submitted not more frequently than weekly on forms acceptable to Bank. Borrower will not submit Draws on or after September 1, 2011.


 


1.04 The Note. The Loan shall be evidenced by a Revolving Line of Credit Promissory Note (the “Note”), having a stated maturity on September 29, 2011, with a face amount of $3,400,000.00, executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Bank.


 


1.05 The Origination and/or Commitment Fees. In exchange for Bank's agreement to set aside funds to accommodate Borrower's rights to draw hereunder, Borrower will pay Bank $34,000.00 upon execution of this Agreement by Borrower.


 


1.06 Borrowing Base. The Borrowing Base is an amount equal to the lesser of (i) sixty-five percent (65%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Pledged Mortgage Paper, or (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property (hereinafter defined) based upon a Qualified Appraisal (hereinafter defined) (the “Borrowing Base”). For purposes hereof, the term “Pledged Mortgage Paper” shall mean Mortgage Paper pledged to Bank by Borrower and secured by a first and prior deed of trust lien encumbering real properties located within the State of Texas that are either (i) entitled residential land, (ii) finished lots suitable for single family residential construction, which are held for inventory or (iii) finished lots suitable for single family residential construction, on which a single family residences are to be or are being constructed (the “Mortgaged Property”), but excluding any Mortgage Paper which (a) is or becomes past due by more than sixty (60) days, (b) is secured by townhomes, condos, or duplexes, (c) is secured by property located outside of Texas, (d) the outstanding principal balance, payment terms, or collateral securing the Mortgage Paper is modified, except for such modifications to which the Bank has consented in writing (a “Material Modification”), (e) consists of an installment contract for deed, (f) is secured by properties that have ad valorem taxes or other assessments due and owing against the them that are delinquent. For purposes hereof, “Qualified Appraisal” shall mean means a current appraisal of the Mortgaged Property (not less than twelve (12) months old) prepared by a third party appraiser approved by Lender and which is acceptable to Lender in form and substance, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion.  Borrower will remove from the Pledged Mortgage Paper pledged to the Bank at once and without demand (i) any Mortgage Paper that is more than sixty (60) days past due (ii) any Mortgage Paper that has been renewed, modified or extended in any way that results in a Material Modification, (iii) any Mortgage Paper that is secured by properties that have ad valorem taxes or other assessments due and owing against them that are not paid in full when due to the appropriate taxing authorities, or (iv) any other Mortgage Paper that is otherwise out of compliance with the Borrowing Base qualifications, or (v) any other Mortgage Paper that that Bank has notified Borrower is unsatisfactory to Bank, as determined by Bank in its sole discretion, in which case Borrower shall submit replacement Mortgage Paper to Bank which meets the requirements hereof and is otherwise approved by Bank.  Borrower will submit a reconciliation of collateral and debt on (i) the first day of each month and (ii) the date of each Request for an Advance (in the form of Exhibit “R”) (the “Settlement Date”) together with a current Borrowing Base Certificate in the form of Exhibit “O”) (and in the case of a Request for an Advance, after giving effect to the advance so requested).  Prior to September 1, 2011, if the reconciliation shows available borrowing, the Borrower may draw up to the available amount for borrowing. If the reconciliation shows available borrowing to be less than the amount outstanding, the Loan shall be immediately paid down by the Borrower to the available amount, i.e. the Borrowing Base, at that time. No Draw will be funded if any default by Borrower is threatened or has occurred under any of Bank's Loan Documents in Bank's reasonable commercial judgment.

1.07 Mortgage Paper Tracking. In order to induce Bank to enter into this Agreement, Borrower has represented to Bank that Borrower will promptly furnish Bank with all information needed/requested by Bank from time to time to track each item of Pledged Mortgage Paper (“Item”) viz. each first lien note and first lien securing the payment of such first lien note pledged to Bank in order to independently determine its currency, and to remain assured that no Item of Pledged Mortgage Paper considered in the Borrowing Base is more than sixty (60) days past due or otherwise out of compliance with the Borrowing Base qualifications. In addition, Borrower will furnish any certification of Mortgage Paper currency under oath that Bank may request from time to time during the term of the Loan.


 


1.08 Interest Rate and Payments of Interest.


 


(A) Except as otherwise provided under § 1.08(B), interest on the principal balance of the Loan from time to time outstanding will be payable in monthly installments (as set forth in the Note) at the floating rate of one percentage point (1 %) above The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate per annum based on a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed, subject to a floor interest rate of five and one-half percent (5.5%) (the “Floating Rate”). All past due principal and interest shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the highest lawful rate from maturity until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions concerning such varying rate, if at any time the Floating Rate exceeds the highest lawful rate, the rate of interest to accrue on the Note shall be limited to the highest lawful rate, but if thereafter the Floating Rate is less than the highest lawful rate, the rate of interest to accrue on the Note shall be the highest lawful rate until the total amount of interest accrued on the Note equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the Floating Rate had at all times been in effect.


 


(B) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with the usury laws applicable to the Loan; accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in Agreement or in any of the documents securing payment of the Loan, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum permitted by law. If any excess interest is provided for, contracted for, charged for or received, then the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control and neither the Borrower hereof nor any other party liable for the payment thereof shall be obligated to pay the amount of such excess interest. Any such excess interest which may have been collected shall be, at the Bank's option, either applied as a credit against the then unpaid amount hereof or refunded to Borrower. The effective rate of interest shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under the usury laws as now or hereafter construed. It is further agreed that without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged for, or received under this Agreement which are made for the purposes of determining whether such rate exceeds the maximum lawful rate, shall be made, to the extent permitted by law, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the full stated term of the Loan, all interest contracted for, charged for or received from the Borrower or otherwise by the Bank.


 


1.09 Payment to the Bank. All sums payable to the Bank hereunder shall be paid directly to the Bank in immediately available funds. Additionally, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank may charge against any deposit account of the Borrower all or any part of any amount due hereunder.

1.10 Audit of Pledged Mortgage Paper. The Borrower shall permit representatives of Bank, including independent auditors, collateral verification agents, attorneys and any other parties from time to time to audit and inspect Borrower's property, including Borrower's books and records, make photocopies thereof, and record information relating thereto, and Borrower shall reimburse Bank upon demand for the fees, costs and expenses of such audits and inspections. As long as no Event of Default has occurred, Bank agrees to audit and inspect Borrower's property no more frequently than once in any three (3) month period. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Bank shall have the right to audit and inspect Borrower's property more frequently than once in any three (3) month period.


 


1.11 Servicing Rights. The Borrower covenants that the servicing rights to the Pledged Mortgage Paper will not be sold or assigned and upon an Event of Default the Bank will have control of such rights.
