 E. The parties desire to modify the Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents as set forth below. 

AGREEMENT: 
 For good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	ACCURACY OF RECITALS. 

 Borrower and Lender
acknowledge the accuracy of the recitals. 
  

	 	2.	MODIFICATION OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND LOAN DOCUMENTS. 

 2.1 Definitions. 
 2.1.1 The definition of “Commitment Amount” in
Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to provide as follows: 
 “Commitment
Amount” means TWENTY-FIVE MILLION AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($25,000,000.00) subject to such increases or decreases thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(d) and Section 2.1(e); provided, however, upon the occurrence of a Term

 2.1.2 The definition of “Interest Rate” in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated
in its entirety to provide as follows: 
 “Interest Rate” means, at the election of Borrower in connection with any Advance
Request pursuant to Section 2.2(a) (and otherwise subject to the provisions of Section 2.3 and Section 3 of the Note), either: 
 (a) At such time as the amount of Compensating Balances is equal to or greater than $10,000,000, (i) the LIBOR Rate plus 3.00%, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus 0.75%, in either case, rounded upwards to the
nearest one-eighth percent (.125%), or 
 (b) At such time as the amount of Compensating Balances is equal to or greater than $5,000,000 but
less than $10,000,000, (i) the LIBOR Rate plus 3.75%, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus 1.50%, in either case, rounded upwards to the nearest one-eighth percent (.125%), or 
 (c) At such time as the amount of Compensating Balances is less than $5,000,000, (i) the LIBOR Rate plus 4.00%, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus

 As used herein, “LIBOR Based Rate” means an Interest Rate based on the LIBOR Rate, and
“Prime Based Rate” means an Interest Rate based on the Prime Rate. LIBOR Based Rates shall be adjusted from time to time as of each Interest Rate Adjustment Date. Prime Based Rates shall be adjusted from time to time as and when the
Prime Rate is adjusted. Borrower may not elect to convert or otherwise change the Interest Rate except in connection with an Advance Request. Interest shall accrue on the entire outstanding balance of the Loan at the Interest Rate selected by
Borrower until such time as Borrower elects to convert such Interest Rate to the other available Interest Rate (i.e., LIBOR Based Rate or Prime Based Rate); provided that the applicable Interest Rate shall be the Default Rate at any time an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing. In the event no such Interest Rate election is made by Borrower, the Interest Rate shall be deemed to be the LIBOR Based Rate. 
 2.1.3 The definition of “Facility LC Sublimit” set forth in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby
amended and restated as follows:

precedent to the inclusion of the applicable Subdivision as an Approved Subdivision; 
 provided, however, that in the event

Unit, the foregoing Maximum Allowed Advance Rates with respect to such High End Unit, whether constituting an Attached Unit or a Detached Unit, shall be reduced by 5%; and (ii) with respect to any High Density Units, the Maximum Allowed Advance
shall be determined by Lender as a condition precedent to the inclusion of the applicable Subdivision (which contains such High Density Units) as an Approved Subdivision.

 2.2 Increase In Commitment Amount. The

described, which request shall set forth the amount of each such requested Facility Increase. Within twenty (20) days of such request, Lender shall advise Borrower of its approval or disapproval of such request, and failure to so advise
Borrower shall constitute disapproval. If Lender approves of any such Facility Increase, then the Commitment Amount may be so increased up to the amount of such approved Facility Increase. 
 (ii) Requirements. Any Facility Increase shall be subject to the following requirements, limitations and conditions: (A) any
increase in the Commitment Amount shall not be less than $5,000,000 (and shall be in integral multiples of $5,000,000 if in excess thereof); (B) after giving effect to the Facility Increase and all prior Facility Increases, the Commitment

 -6- 

 2.3 Extension of Maturity Date. Section 2.1(g) of the Loan Agreement
is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 
 On or before each Facility Anniversary Date, upon any written request by
Borrower delivered to Lender no earlier than ninety (90) days prior to such Facility Anniversary Date but no later than thirty (30) days prior to such Facility Anniversary Date, Lender, may, in its sole and absolute discretion, extend the
Maturity Date then in effect for an additional twelve (12) month period; provided, however in no event shall any extension of the Maturity Date be considered or granted if any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be determined to be, and remains, untrue or incorrect in any material respect, or any Material Adverse Change has
occurred and is continuing. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender has not made any commitment to extend the Maturity Date and that Lender is not under any obligation to extend such Maturity Date or to consider any request for any such
extension. 
 2.4 Fees. Section 2.5(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to provide that the annual
facility fee shall be equal to .50% of the Commitment Amount then in effect. Such fee shall be paid as a condition of the effectiveness of this Amendment. 
 2.5 Unused Commitment Fee. The Section entitled “Unused Commitment Fee” in the Third Amendment to Borrowing Base Revolving Line of Credit Agreement dated as of January 23, 2008 to the Loan
Agreement was erroneously identified as “Section 2.5(d)” when such section should have been identified as “Section 2.5(e)”. The identification of such section is hereby changed to “Section 2.5(e),” and such section is
hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 
 (e) Unused Commitment Fee. In addition, commencing as of August 14,
2008 and continuing thereafter until the Commitment has been terminated and the Loan paid in full, Borrower agrees to pay Lender a quarterly Unused Commitment Fee for each quarterly period that the Average Quarterly Outstandings is less than fifty
percent (50%) of the Commitment Amount then in effect. As used herein, the term “Unused Commitment Fee” means that amount which is equal to the result of multiplying: (i) the difference between the Commitment Amount in
effect during the applicable period and the Average Quarterly Outstandings for that same period by (ii) 0.15%. As used herein the term “Average Quarterly Outstanding” means, for each quarter (or portion thereof), the aggregate
amount of the daily amount of outstanding Advances during the applicable period divided by the actual number of days in that period. Each Unused Commitment Fee shall be calculated by Lender with each such calculation being deemed conclusive absent
manifest error. Each Unused Commitment Fee shall be due and payable in arrears within ten (10) days after the end of each quarterly period; provided that any such 

  

 -7- 

 
Unused Commitment Fee, whether for the full quarterly period or any portion thereof, shall become immediately due and payable on the earlier of the Maturity
Date or the occurrence of an Event of Default; provided, however, Unused Commitment Fees shall continue to accrue and be due and payable during the existence of any such Event of Default. 
 2.6 Lot Term Limits. 
 2.6.1 Land Under Development. Section 3.2(b)(A) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to replace the reference to “twenty-four (24) Calendar Months” with “eighteen
(18) Calendar Months”. Section 3.2(b)(B) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to replace the reference to “thirty (30) Calendar Months” with “twenty-four (24) Calendar Months”. 
 2.6.2 A&D Completed Lots. Section 3.2(c) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended to provide that the eligibility
period for A&D Completed Lots may be extended for an additional twelve (12) Calendar Months upon written notice to the Lender no earlier than 90 days and no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such original time
period and provided no Material Adverse Change, no Unmatured Event of Default nor any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and further, provided that the Maximum Allowed Advance with respect to any such Lots shall be reduced during
the extension term as set forth in the definition of “Maximum Allowed Advance.” 
 2.7 Aggregate Lot
Concentration Limitation. Section 3.3(b) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 
 In no event shall the aggregate Collateral Value with respect to all Pre-Development Land, Land Under Development and A&D Finished Lots exceed 30% of the aggregate Collateral Value with respect to all Eligible Collateral within the
Borrowing Base. Further, with respect to each Project, at no time shall the aggregate amount of the Project Costs for all Land Under Development for that Project exceed $15,000,000 unless consented to by Lender in writing as an additional condition
precedent to the addition of such Project as an Approved Subdivision under the Borrowing Base. 
 2.8 Limitation on Number
of Spec Units and Model Units. Section 3.6(d) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 
 At no time shall the aggregate number of Spec Units and Model Units with respect to any Approved Subdivision exceed the greater of (i) twelve (12) Units, or (ii) 1.25 times the number of Presold Units in such Approved
Subdivision.

in its entirety as follows: 
  

 -8- 

 WLH will maintain at all times through June 30, 2009, on a consolidating basis, a ratio of

Net Worth that is equal to or less than 3.25 to 1. As used herein, the term “Total Liabilities” shall mean the book value of WLH’s assets less (i) Tangible Net Worth, (ii) “off-balance sheet” liabilities
complying with the Financial Accounting Standards For Financial Interpretation No. 46 and (iii) minority interests in WLH consolidated entities, all as determined in accordance with GAAP.

hereby waives any right of set-off it may have against such depository accounts upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. 
  

	 	3.	RATIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS AND COLLATERAL. 

 The
Loan Documents are ratified and affirmed by Borrower and will remain in full force and effect as modified herein, and as those Loan Documents may have been amended, restated or otherwise modified. Any property or rights to or interest in property

being aware of said code section, expressly waives any and all rights it may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principle of similar effect, with respect to any of the matters released herein. The Agreement shall act
as a release of all included claims, rights and causes of action, whether such claims are currently known, unknown, foreseen or unforeseen and regardless of any present lack of knowledge as to such claims. Borrower understands and acknowledges the
significance and consequence of this waiver of California Civil Code Section

 Revolving Line of Credit Agreement 

 CONSENT AND AGREEMENT OF GUARANTOR 
 Guarantor hereby consents to the foregoing Fourth Amendment to Borrowing Base Revolving Line of Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) and
agrees to the terms and conditions thereof. Guarantor further represents, warrants and covenants to Lender as follows: 
 1. To the best of
Guarantor’s knowledge, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 2. There has been no Material Adverse Change with respect
to Borrower or the Land. 
 3. Borrower continues to be validly existing under the laws of the state of its formation or organization and
(1) Borrower has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Amendment and to perform the Loan Documents as modified by the Amendment, and (2) the Guarantor has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this
Consent and Agreement of Guarantor and to perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party, as those Loan Documents may have been amended, restated or otherwise modified. 
 4. Guarantor acknowledges: (i) receiving a copy of and reading the Amendment and all other Loan Documents, including any new Loan Documents and any
restatements, amendments or modifications with respect to any existing Loan Documents, (ii) the accuracy of the Recitals in the Amendment, and (iii) the continued effectiveness of the Loan Documents to which the Guarantor is a party as
those Loan Documents may have been amended, restated or otherwise modified by the Amendment or otherwise, and any other agreements, documents, or instruments securing or otherwise relating to thereto (collectively, the “Guarantor Loan
Documents”). 
 5. Guarantor consents to the modification of the Loan Documents as set forth in the Amendment, and as set forth in
any restatements, amendments or modifications with respect to any existing Loan Documents or Guarantor Documents, and as to all other matters as set forth in the Amendment and affirms and covenants to Lender that: (a) such Loan Documents and
Guarantor Loan Documents (as restated, amended or otherwise modified) continue to be the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower and Guarantor (as applicable), enforceable against Borrower and the Guarantor (as applicable) in accordance with
their terms, subject only to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles of general application, and (b) any property or rights to or interests in
property granted as security in the Guarantor Documents shall remain as security. 
 6. Guarantor represents and warrants that Guarantor has
no claims, counterclaims, defenses, or off-sets with respect to the enforcement against Guarantor of the Guarantor Loan Documents. Guarantor further fully, finally and forever releases and discharges Lender and its successors, assigns, directors,
officers, employees, agents, and representatives from any and all actions, causes of action, claims, debts, demands, liabilities, obligations, and suits, of whatever kind or nature in law or equity that it has or in the future may have, whether
known or unknown, with respect to the Loan and the Loan Documents (including without limitation, the Guarantor 

  

 -1- 

 
Loan Documents) or the actions or omissions of Lender in respect thereof to the extent such claims, counterclaims, defenses or off-sets arose from events
occurring prior to the date of the Amendment. It is the intention of Guarantor that the above release shall be effective as a full and final release of each and every matter specifically and generally referred to in this paragraph. Guarantor
acknowledges and represents that he has been advised by independent legal counsel with respect to the agreements contained herein and with respect to the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows: “A
GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE
DEBTOR.” Guarantor, being aware of said Code section, expressly waives any and all rights he may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principle of similar effect, with respect to any of the matters released herein.
