or “Promissory Note”) evidences $1,500,000 loaned by the Lender to Lucas on August 25, 2016.

1.

This
Note shall (a) not accrue interest until September 25, 2016; and (b) shall accrue interest beginning on September 25, 2016, at
the rate of five percent (5%) per annum, compounded monthly in arrears, on the 25th day of each month following September
25, 2016, in each case unless an Event of Default shall occur hereunder at which time interest shall accrue at the rate of fifteen
percent (15%) per annum until paid in full.

2.

This
Note is payable on the earlier of (a) October 31, 2016, the “Maturity Date”; and (b) three business
days following the date that Lucas receives at least $1.5 million in proceeds from the transactions contemplated by that certain
Stock Purchase Agreement dated April 6, 2016, entered into by and between Lucas and Discover Growth Fund.

3.

This
Note may be prepaid in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty.

4.

If
any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which national banks
are not open for business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day.

5.

This
Note shall be binding upon Lucas and inure to the benefit of the Lender named herein and Lender’s respective successors
and assigns.

6.

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Note or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith, whether now existing or hereafter
arising and whether written or oral, it is agreed that the aggregate of all interest and any other charges constituting interest,
or adjudicated as constituting interest, and contracted for, chargeable or receivable under this Note or otherwise in connection
with this loan transaction, shall under no circumstances exceed the Maximum Rate (as defined below).

7.

If
an Event of Default (as defined below) occurs (unless all Events of Default have been cured or waived by Lender), Lender may,
by written notice to Lucas, declare the principal amount then outstanding of, and the accrued interest (if any) and all other
amounts payable on, this Note to be immediately due and payable. The following are “Events of Default”
under this Note:

(a)

Lucas
shall fail to pay, when and as due, the principal or interest payable hereunder (if any) within fifteen (15) days from the due
date of such payment; or

under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation or statute of any jurisdiction,
whether now or hereafter in effect; (iii) have filed against it any such petition or application in which an order for relief

(c)

Lucas
shall take any action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.

8.

If
from any circumstance any holder of this Note shall ever receive interest or any other charges constituting interest, or adjudicated
as constituting interest, the amount, if any, which would exceed the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal
amount owing on this Note, and not to the payment of interest; or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal
hereof, the amount of such excessive interest that exceeds the unpaid balance of principal hereof shall be refunded to Lucas.
In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, to the extent permitted by applicable law
(i) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest; and (ii) all interest
at any time contracted for, charged, received or preserved in connection herewith shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and
spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of this Note. The term “Maximum Rate”
shall mean the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable federal or state law.

11.

Every
provision of this Note is intended to be severable. If, in any jurisdiction, any term or provision hereof is determined to be
invalid or unenforceable, (a) the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired, (b) any such invalidity or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction, and (c) the
invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall, for purposes of such jurisdiction, be deemed replaced by a term or provision
that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
In the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Note is invalid or against public policy
and cannot be so reduced or modified so as to be made enforceable, the remaining provisions of this Note shall not be affected
thereby, and shall remain in full force and effect.

12.

No
modification, amendment, addition to, or termination of this Note, nor waiver of any of its provisions, shall be valid or enforceable
unless in writing and signed by all the parties hereto.

    	PAGE 52

    	 

    

5.39

Representations and Warranties.

At all times that
this Loan Agreement is in effect (and not just at, and as of, the times such representations and warranties are made), all representations
and warranties in Article 4 hereof shall remain true and correct.

5.40

Borrower covenants
and agrees to meet the requirements of the Cash Flow Test during the term of the Loan. If at any time the Loan does not meet the
requirements of the Cash Flow Test, Borrower shall either (i) pledge or cause to be pledged Additional Collateral acceptable to
Lender or provide additional security or guaranties, all by instruments satisfactory in execution, form, and substance to Lender,
or (ii) pay down the outstanding principal balance of the Note to bring the Loan into compliance with the herein described requirements
within fifteen (15) days after notice thereof from Lender. Failure to bring the Loan into compliance to Lender's satisfaction in
its sole and absolute discretion within such fifteen (15) day time period shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, and Lender
shall be entitled to enforce all remedies under the Loan Instruments in equity and at law. Testing of the Cash Flow Test shall
be administered semi-annually on June 30 and December 30 of each year; with the first Cash Flow Test to be administered on June
30, 2017, however, it may also occur from time to time and at any time in Lender's sole discretion.

5.41

Base to be tested on December 30, 2016, however, it may also occur from time to time at any time in Lender's sole discretion. If
at any time the outstanding principal balance of the Note exceeds the Loan to Value Determination Base, the Borrower shall either
(i) pledge or cause to be pledged Additional Collateral acceptable to Lender or provide additional security or guaranties, all
by instruments satisfactory in execution, form, and substance to Lender, or (ii) pay down the outstanding principal balance of
the Note to bring the Note into compliance with the herein described requirements within fifteen (15) days after written notice
thereof from Lender. Failure to bring the Note into compliance to Lender's satisfaction in its sole discretion within such fifteen
(15) day time period shall constitute, at the option of Lender, an Event of Default hereunder and Lender shall be entitled to enforce
all remedies under the Loan Instruments, in equity and at law.

5.42

Shares of Borrower and Underwriting
Fee.

As of the date of
this Loan Agreement, Borrower has issued 15,139,351 shares of common stock in Borrower.  Borrower will issue to Lender the
sum of 390,290 common shares of Borrower September 2, 2016, which share amount constitutes approximately 2.6% of the outstanding
shares of Borrower. The delivery of 390,290 common shares of Borrower (the “Underwriting Shares”) constitutes an underwriting
fee to Lender for the Loan.

    	PAGE 53

    	 

    

Lender is an “accredited
investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
and will acquire the Underwriting Shares for its own account and not with a view to a sale or distribution thereof as that term
is used in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act or any
state securities laws. Lender has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Lender is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the Underwriting Shares. Lender can bear the economic risk of the Underwriting Shares, has knowledge and
experience in financial business matters and is capable of bearing and managing the risk of investment in the Underwriting Shares.
Lender recognizes that the Underwriting Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, nor under the securities laws
of any state and the certificates evidencing such shares will include a legend stating the same, and, therefore, cannot be resold
unless the resale of the Underwriting Shares is registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from registration is
available. Lender has carefully considered and has, to the extent Lender believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its
professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Underwriting Shares for its particular
tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, and has determined that the Underwriting
Shares are a suitable investment for it.  The Lender has not been offered the Underwriting Shares by any form of general solicitation
or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper,
magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to Lender’s knowledge,
those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising. Lender
has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from Borrower, or any person or persons acting on behalf
of Borrower, concerning the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Shares and Borrower, and all such questions have been answered
to the full satisfaction of Lender. Borrower has not supplied Lender any information regarding the Underwriting Shares or an investment
in the Underwriting Shares other than as contained in this Loan Agreement, and Lender is relying on its own investigation and evaluation
of the Borrower and the Underwriting Shares and not on any other information.

5.43

Additional Collateral.

Borrower covenants
and agrees that all assets of Borrower, including without limitation, all Collateral which Borrower now owns and will own in the
future SAVE AND EXCEPT the Outside Mineral Interests, will be pledged by Borrower to Lender to secure the Loan, including without
limitation, the Assets, as defined in the APA. In that regard, neither Borrower nor any Affiliate of Borrower may obtain Additional
Collateral without the prior written consent of Lender, which may be withheld in Lender's sole discretion. If and when Borrower
or any Affiliate of Borrower acquires Additional Collateral, including without limitation, additional mineral interests in the
Mortgaged Properties that Borrower already owns an interest, after written approval by Lender upon such terms and conditions as
Lender may require in its sole discretion, Borrower covenants and agrees to pledge such interests to Lender by a supplemental Mortgage
and other instruments which Lender may require upon such terms as required by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion on or
before three (3) days after Borrower acquires such interests. Before granting any Mortgage liens in such interests, Borrower will
furnish Lender with title opinions and other title evidence in form, substance, and authorship satisfactory to Lender and such
other due diligence items as required by Lender. Furthermore, Borrower will furnish Lender a written description, analysis, and
professional evaluation in a report acceptable to Lender (a "Supplemental Collateral Report") of any additional Collateral
(collectively, "Additional Collateral") that Borrower intends to acquire. Lender may evaluate such Supplemental Collateral
Report and in conjunction with such evaluation, conduct a full credit analysis of Borrower and the existing Collateral and/or Additional
Collateral. Borrower agrees to pay the cost and expense associated with Lender's evaluation of the Supplemental Collateral Report.
Such additional acquired interest shall be used in all testing conducted hereunder by Lender to ensure Borrower is in compliance
with its covenants under this Loan Agreement.

Rights of Set Off. 

Upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to Borrower and Guarantor
(any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), to set off and apply all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower
and Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of Borrower and Guarantor (to the extent of each Guarantor’s Guaranty)
now or hereafter existing pursuant to the Loan Instruments, provided that the Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Guarantor
after any such setoff and application and, provided further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity
of such setoff and application or create any liability on the part of the Lender. The rights of the Lender under this section are
in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which the Lender may have.

6.5

No Waiver or Exhaustion.

No waiver by Lender
of any of its rights or remedies hereunder, in the other Loan Instruments, or otherwise, shall be considered a waiver of any other
or subsequent right or remedy of Lender; no delay or omission in the exercise or enforcement by Lender of any rights or remedies
shall ever be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy of Lender; and no exercise or enforcement of any such rights or remedies
shall ever be held to exhaust any right or remedy of Lender.

6.6

Preferences.

If, after receipt
of any payment of, or proceeds of any collateral applied to the payment of, all or any part of the indebtedness hereunder, Lender
is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment, or proceeds to any person or entity because such payment or proceeds is
determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible set-off, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason,
then: the indebtedness hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds
had not been received by Lender; this Loan Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received;
and Borrower and Guarantor (to the extent of each Guarantor’s Guaranty) shall be liable to, and shall indemnify and hold
Lender harmless for, the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section shall be and remain effective
notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds, and any such
contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to Lender's rights under this Loan Agreement and shall be deemed to have been
conditioned upon such payment or proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section shall survive the
termination of this Loan Agreement.

6.7

Proceeds of Production.

writing executed by the party against whom a modification, waiver or termination is sought to be enforced.

illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

7.4

Election of Remedies.

Lender shall have
all of the rights and remedies granted in the Loan Instruments and available at law or in equity, and these same rights and remedies
shall be cumulative and may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Obligor, or any Mortgaged Properties covered

Borrower and Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency,
whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any indebtedness governed hereby or otherwise, shall the interest contracted
for, charged or received by Lender exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever,
interest would otherwise be payable to Lender in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to Lender shall be reduced
to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and, if from any circumstance the Lender shall ever receive anything of value
deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied
to the reduction of the principal of the Loan and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid
balance of principal of the Loan, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lender shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full period until payment
in full of the principal of the Loan (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof), so that interest thereon for such
full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This paragraph shall control all agreements between

    	PAGE 62

h.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

PROCEEDING, WHERE YOU RESIDE OR WHERE THE DISPUTE AROSE.

    	PAGE 64

    	 

    

II.

Provisions
applicable only to a CONSUMER DISPUTE: 

(a)

Any and all CONSUMER
DISPUTES shall be resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the
Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplemental Procedures for Resolution of Consumer Disputes and Consumer Due Process Protocol
(which are incorporated herein for all purposes). It is intended by the PARTIES that these Arbitration Provisions meet and
include all fairness standards and principles of the American Arbitration Association's Consumer Due Process Protocol and due process
in predispute arbitration. If a CONSUMER DISPUTE is for a claim of actual damages above $250,000 it shall be administered
by the AAA before three neutral arbitrators at the request of any PARTY.

(b)

Instead of proceeding in arbitration,
any PARTY hereto may pursue its claim in your local small claims court, if the CONSUMER DISPUTE meets the small claims
court's jurisdictional limits. If the small claims court option is chosen, the PARTY pursuing the claim must contact the
small claims court directly.  The PARTIES agree that the class action waiver provision also applies to any CONSUMER DISPUTE
brought in small claims court.

(c)

For any claim for actual damages
that does not exceed $2,500, the Lender will pay all arbitration fees and costs provided you submitted a Notice of Dispute with
regard to the CONSUMER DISPUTE prior to initiation of arbitration. For any claim for actual damages that does not exceed
$5,000, the Lender also agrees to pay your reasonable attorney's fees and reasonable expenses your attorney charges you in connection
with the arbitration (even if the Arbitrator does not award those to you) plus an additional $2,500 if you obtain a favorable arbitration
award for your actual damages which is greater than any written settlement offer for your actual damages made by the Lender to
you prior to the selection of the Arbitrator.

(d)

Under the AAA's Supplemental Procedures
for Consumer Disputes, if your claim for actual damages does not exceed $10,000, you shall only be responsible for paying up to
a maximum of $125 in arbitration fees and costs. If your claim for actual damages exceeds $10,000 but does not exceed $75,000,
you shall only be responsible for paying up to a maximum of $375 in arbitration fees and costs. For any claim for actual damages
that does not exceed $75,000, the Lender will pay all other arbitrator's fees and costs imposed by the administrator of the arbitration.
With regard to a CONSUMER DISPUTE for a claim of actual damages that exceeds $75,000, or if the claim is a non-monetary
claim, the Lender agrees to pay all arbitration fees and costs you would otherwise be responsible for that exceed $1,000. The fees
and costs stated above are subject to any amendments to the fee and cost schedules of the AAA. The fee and cost schedule in effect
at the time you submit your claim shall apply. The AAA rules also permit you to request a waiver or deferral of the administrative
fees and costs of arbitration if paying them would cause you financial hardship.

(e)

Although under some laws, the Lender
may have a right to an award of attorney's fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration, the Lender agrees that it will not
seek such an award in a binding arbitration proceeding with regard to a CONSUMER DISPUTE for a claim of actual damages that
does not exceed $75,000.

    	PAGE 65

submit an arbitration claim, or to request a copy of the AAA rules or fee schedule, you may contact the AAA at 1-800-778-7879
(toll free) or at www.adr.org.

III.

Provisions
applicable only to a BUSINESS DISPUTE:

(a)

Any and all BUSINESS DISPUTES
between the PARTIES shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA in effect
at the time of filing, as modified by, and subject to, these Arbitration Provisions. A BUSINESS DISPUTE for a claim of actual
damages that exceeds $250,000 shall be administered by AAA before at least three (3) neutral arbitrators at the request of any
PARTY. In the event the aggregate of all affirmative claims asserted exceeds $500,000, exclusive of interest and attorney's
fees, or upon the written request of any PARTY, the arbitration shall be conducted under the AAA Procedures for Large, Complex
Commercial Disputes. If the payment of arbitration fees and costs will cause you extreme financial hardship you may request that
AAA defer or reduce the administrative fees or request the Lender to cover some of the arbitration fees and costs that would be
your responsibility.

(b)

The PARTIES shall have the
right to (i) invoke self-help remedies (such as setoff, notification of account debtors, seizure and/or foreclosure of collateral,
and nonjudicial sale of personal Mortgaged Properties and real Mortgaged Properties collateral) before, during or after any arbitration,
and/or (ii) request ancillary or provisional judicial remedies (such as garnishment, attachment, specific performance, receiver,
injunction or restraining order, and sequestration) before or after the commencement of any arbitration proceeding (individually,
and not on behalf of a class). The PARTIES need not await the outcome of the arbitration proceeding before using self-help
remedies. Use of self-help or ancillary and/or provisional judicial remedies shall not operate as a waiver of either PARTY's
right to compel arbitration. Any ancillary or provisional judicial remedy which would be available from a court at law shall be
available from the Arbitrator. The PARTIES agree that the AAA Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection shall
apply in an arbitration proceeding where emergency interim relief is requested.

(c)

Except to the extent the recovery
of any type or types of damages or penalties may not by waived under applicable law, the Arbitrator shall not have the authority
to award either PARTY (i) punitive, exemplary, special or indirect damages, (ii) statutory multiple damages, or (iii) penalties,
statutory or otherwise.

(d)

The Arbitrator may award attorney's
fees and costs including the fees, costs and expenses of arbitration and of the Arbitrator as the Arbitrator deems appropriate
to the prevailing PARTY. The Arbitrator shall retain jurisdiction over questions of attorney's fees for fourteen (14) days
after entry of the decision.

IV.

General provisions applicable to
both CONSUMER DISPUTES and BUSINESS DISPUTES:

(a)

The Arbitrator is bound by the terms
of these Arbitration Provisions. The Arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any DISPUTES relating to the scope
or enforceability of these Arbitration Provisions, including (i) all arbitrability questions, and (ii) any claim that all or a
part of these Arbitration Provisions are void or voidable (including any claims that they are unconscionable in whole or in part).

(b)

These Arbitration Provisions shall
survive any termination, amendment, or expiration of this Loan Agreement, unless all of the PARTIES otherwise expressly agree in
writing.

(c)

If a PARTY initiates legal
proceedings, the failure of the initiating PARTY to request arbitration pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions within
180 days after the filing of the lawsuit shall be deemed a waiver of the initiating PARTY'S right to compel arbitration
with respect to the claims asserted in the litigation. The failure of the defending PARTY in such litigation to request
arbitration pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions within 180 days after the defending PARTY'S receipt of service of judicial
process, shall be deemed a waiver of the right of the defending PARTY to compel arbitration with respect to the claims
asserted in the litigation. If a counterclaim, cross-claim or third party action is filed and properly served on a PARTY
in connection with such litigation, the failure of such PARTY to request arbitration pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions
within ninety (90) days after such PARTY'S receipt of service of the counterclaim, cross-claim or third party claim shall
be deemed a waiver of such PARTY'S right to compel arbitration with respect to the claims asserted therein. The issue of
waiver pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions is an arbitrable dispute. Active participation in any pending litigation described
above by a PARTY shall not in any event be deemed a waiver of such PARTY'S right to compel arbitration. All discovery
obtained in the pending litigation may be used in any subsequent arbitration proceeding.

(d)

Any PARTY seeking to arbitrate
shall serve a written notice of intent to any and all opposing PARTIES after a DISPUTE has arisen. The PARTIES
agree a timely written notice of intent to arbitrate by either PARTY pursuant to these Arbitration Provisions shall stay
and/or abate any and all action in a trial court, save and except a hearing on a motion to compel arbitration and/or the entry
of an order compelling arbitration and staying and/or abating the litigation pending the filing of the final award of the Arbitrator.

    	PAGE 67

    	 

    

(e)

Any Arbitrator selected shall be
knowledgeable in the subject matter of the DISPUTE and be licensed to practice law.

(f)

For a one (1) member arbitration
panel, the PARTIES are limited to an equal number of strikes in selecting the arbitrator from the AAA neutral list, such
that at least one arbitrator remains after the PARTIES exercise all of their respective strikes. For a three (3) member
arbitration panel, the PARTIES are limited to an equal number of strikes in selecting the arbitrators from the AAA neutral
list, such that at least three arbitrators remain after the PARTIES exercise all of their respective strikes. After exercising
all of their allotted respective strikes, the PARTIES shall rank those potential arbitrators remaining numerically in order
of preference (with "1" designating the most preferred). The AAA shall review the PARTIES rankings and assign
a score to each potential arbitrator by adding together the ranking given to such potential arbitrator by each PARTY. The
arbitrator(s) with the lowest score total(s) will be selected. In the event of a tie or ties for lowest score total and if the
selection of both or all of such potential arbitrators is not possible due to the required panel size, the AAA shall select the
arbitrator(s) it believes to be best qualified.

(g)

The PARTIES and the Arbitrator
shall treat all aspects of the arbitration proceedings, including, without limitation, any documents exchanged, testimony and other
evidence, briefs and the award, as strictly confidential; provided, however, that a written award or order from the Arbitrator
may be filed with any court having jurisdiction to confirm and/or enforce such award or order.

(h)

Any statute of limitation which would
otherwise be applicable shall apply to any claim asserted in any arbitration proceeding under these Arbitration Provisions, and
the commencement of any arbitration proceeding tolls such statute of limitations.

(i)

If the AAA is unable for any reason
to provide arbitration services, then the PARTIES agree to select another arbitration service provider that has the ability
to arbitrate the DISPUTE pursuant to and consistent with these Arbitration Provisions. If the PARTIES are unable
to agree on another arbitration service provider, any PARTY may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an
Arbitrator to administer the arbitration proceeding pursuant to and consistent with these Arbitration Provisions.

(j)

The
award of the Arbitrator shall be final and Judgment upon any such award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
The arbitration award shall be in the form of a written reasoned decision and shall be based on and consistent with applicable
law.

(k)

Unless the PARTIES mutually
agree to hold the binding arbitration proceeding elsewhere, venue of any arbitration proceeding under these Arbitration Provisions
shall be in the county and state where Lender is located, which is Lender's address set out in the first paragraph on page 1 hereof.

    	PAGE 68

    	 

    

(l)

If any of these Arbitration Provisions
are held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall be enforced without regard to the invalid or unenforceable
term or provision.

JURY WAIVER: IF A DISPUTE
BETWEEN OBLIGOR AND LENDER PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN THROUGH MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION, THEN OBLIGOR AND LENDER BOTH WAIVE
THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, AND SUCH DISPUTE WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE ONLY.

7.15

No Oral Agreements.

THIS WRITTEN LOAN
AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS

Obligor hereby
represents and warrants that there are no known claims, causes of action, suits, debts, liens, obligations, liabilities, demands,
losses, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of any kind, character or nature whatsoever, fixed or contingent, which
Obligor may have or claim to have against Lender, which might arise out of or be connected with any act of commission or omission
of Lender existing or occurring on or prior to the date of this Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, any claims, liabilities
or obligations arising with respect to the Loan or arising under any of the Loan Instruments.

    	PAGE 69

    	 

    

(b)

In consideration
of Lender's agreements as provided herein, Obligor hereby releases, acquits, waives and forever discharges Lender, its partners,
affiliates, subsidiaries and related parties and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, predecessors, successors,
assigns, attorneys, and representatives (collectively the "Lender Parties") from any and all claims, demands, cross-actions,
cause or causes of action, at law or in equity, costs and expenses, including legal expenses, as well as any other kind or character
of claim or action, in each case to the extend held by Obligor on or before the closing date of the Loan, whether based upon tort,
fraud, breach of any duty of fair dealing, breach of confidence, undue influence, duress, economic coercion, conflict of interest,
negligence, bad faith, intentional or negligent infliction of mental distress, tortious interference with contractual relations,
tortious interference with corporate governance or prospective business advantage, breach of contract, deceptive trade practices,
libel, slander, conspiracy (collectively, the "Released Claims"), to the fullest and maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, but in each case only to the extent permitted by applicable law, contract, usury, common law or statutory right, known or
unknown, arising, directly or indirectly, proximately or remotely, out of any of the Loan Instruments or any of the documents,
instruments or any other transactions relating thereto, solely with respect to such claims, which arise in connection with events
which occurred prior to the date hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this release shall include all aspects
of the negotiations between and among Obligor and Lender. This release is intended to release all liability of any character claimed
for damages, of any type or nature, for injunctive or other relief, for attorneys' fees, interest or any other liability whatsoever,
whether statutory, contractual or tort in character, or of any other nature or character, now or henceforth in any way related
to the Released Claims, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or damage in connection with, or based upon, any breach of
fiduciary duty, breach of any duty of fair dealing or good faith, breach of confidence, breach of funding commitment, breach of
any other duty, breach of any statutory right, fraud, usury, undue influence, duress, economic coercion, conflict of interest,
negligence, bad faith, malpractice, violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, intentional or negligent
infliction of mental distress, tortious interference with corporate or other governance or prospective business advantage, breach
of contract, deceptive trade practices, libel, slander, conspiracy, or any other cause of action, any of which arise in connection
with events which occurred prior to the date of execution hereof. Obligor understands and agrees that this is a full, final and
complete release of the Released Claims and agrees that this release may be pleaded as an absolute and final bar to any or all
suit or suits pending or which may hereafter be filed or prosecuted by Obligor, or anyone claiming, by, through or under Obligor
in respect of the Released Claims, and that no recovery on account of the Released Claims may hereafter be had from anyone whomsoever,
and that the consideration given for this release is no admission of liability and that Obligor, nor those claiming under Obligor
will ever claim that it is.

7.17

Insolvency Proceeding.

In the event any
proceeding (an "Insolvency Proceeding") is brought by or against Obligor and/or the Mortgaged Properties under or pursuant
to any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law or laws of the United States or any other state or other jurisdiction,
including the Bankruptcy Code, and any other law or laws of the United States or any other state or other jurisdiction which affect

a receiver or trustee; (ii) any proceeding filed by or against Obligor under the Bankruptcy Code; (iii) any assignment by Obligor

and all of its rights, recourses and remedies under the Loan Instruments, at law and/or in equity, including, without limitation,
foreclosure of the Mortgage and sale of the Mortgaged Properties pursuant thereto and/or collection of the rents and profits directly
by Lender. Further, if Lender requests such relief, Obligor shall not object to or oppose Lender's request for immediate relief
from the automatic stay for purposes of exercising any and all rights, recourses, remedies and benefits Lender may have under the
Loan Instruments, at law and/or in equity, including, without limitation, foreclosure of the Mortgage and sale of the Mortgaged
Properties pursuant thereto and/or collection of the rents and profits directly by Lender.
