ALLOCATIONS AND ADVANCES
Section 3.1. General Provisions with Respect to Allocations and Advances. The purposes for which Loan proceeds are allocated and the respective amounts of such Allocations are set forth in the Budget.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 16
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
(a) Limitation on Advances. Lender shall not be obligated to make an Advance for an Allocation set forth in the Budget to the extent that the amount of the Advance for such Allocation would, when added to all prior Advances for such Allocation, exceed the total of such Allocation as set forth in the Budget. To the extent that Loan proceeds disbursed by Lender pursuant to the Allocations are insufficient to pay all costs required for the acquisition, development, construction and completion of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall pay such excess costs with funds derived from sources other than the Loan. Under no circumstances shall Lender be required to disburse any proceeds of the Loan in excess of the Loan Amount.
(b) Reallocations. Except for a Permitted Change, Lender reserves the right, at its option, to disburse Loan proceeds allocated to any of the Allocations for such other purposes or in such different proportions as Lender may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or advisable. Borrower shall not be entitled to require that Lender reallocate funds among the Allocations.
(c) Withholding. Lender may withhold from an Advance or, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold from a later Advance under this Agreement or require Borrower to repay to Lender the whole or any part of any earlier Advance to such extent as may be necessary to protect Lender from loss on account of (i) defective work not remedied or requirements of this Agreement not performed; (ii) liens filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of liens; (iii) failure of Borrower to make payments to subcontractors for material or labor; or (iv) a reasonable doubt that the construction can be completed for the balance of the Loan Amount then undisbursed. When all such grounds are removed, payment shall be made of any amount so withheld because of them.
(d) Advance Not A Waiver or Acceptance. No Advance of the proceeds of the Loan shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions of Lender's obligation to make further Advances, nor, in the event Borrower is unable to satisfy any such condition, shall any such Advance have the effect of precluding Lender from thereafter declaring such inability to be an Event of Default. The making of any Advance or part thereof shall also not be deemed an approval or acceptance by Lender of any work done.
(e) Time and Place of Advances. All Advances are to be made at the office of Lender, or at such other place as Lender may designate; and Lender shall require ten (10) days' prior notice in writing before the making of any such Advance. Lender shall not be obligated to undertake any Advance hereunder more than once in any 30-day period. Except as set forth in this Agreement, all Advances are to be made by direct deposit into either the Construction Account or the Operating Account. In the event Borrower shall part with or be in any manner whatever deprived of Borrower's interests in and to the Land, Lender may, at Lender's option but without any obligation to do so, continue to make Advances under this Agreement, and subject to all its terms and conditions, to such Person or Persons as may succeed to Borrower's title and interest and all sums so disbursed shall be deemed Advances under this Agreement and secured by the Lien Instrument and all other liens or security interests securing the Loan.
(f) Retainage. An amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of construction of the Improvements shall be retained by Lender and shall be paid over by Lender to Borrower, provided that no lien claims are then filed against the Mortgaged Property, when all of the requirements for the final Advance specified in Section 3.4 have been satisfied; provided, however, that Borrower may request Lender to release up to half of the retained portion to any subcontractor that has fully performed under its contract if all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied: (i) Design Professional shall certify in writing to Lender that all of the work provided for in the applicable subcontract(s) has been substantially completed in accordance with the Plans and that all supplies to be delivered by such subcontractor have been delivered (subject to Lender’s independent verification); (ii) if and to the extent required by Lender, the subcontractor shall have supplied Lender with full and complete waivers of all construction lien claims, and with sworn statements listing all of the materialmen and sub-subcontractors, together with full and complete waivers of all construction lien claims and sworn statements from each of such materialmen and sub-subcontractors, all in accordance with the Florida Construction Lien Law and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and the Title Company; (iii) all necessary governmental Authorizations of the work by such Subcontractor shall have been obtained; (iv) such subcontractor shall have completed all work and/or supplied all materials it was obligated to complete and/or supply; and (v) Contractor, Borrower and Inspecting Person shall have approved the work completed by such subcontractor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

(g) Use of Funds from Advances. Borrower shall use the proceeds from all Advances consistent with the Budget and with Borrower's request for such Advance (once approved by Lender).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance of Loan Proceeds in excess of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) shall be made until such time as all outstanding items described in the Post Closing Agreement (the “Post Closing Documents”) have been received and approved by Lender.

(b) Interest Allocation. Advances from the Allocation identified as "Interest" or similar in the Budget (the "Interest Allocation") may be made for accrued but unpaid interest on each interest payment date specified in the Note. Lender is hereby authorized (with or without Borrower's request) to credit the Note directly for such interest payment by interest journal entries on Lender's books and such amount shall be deemed an Advance. Following Borrower's satisfaction of any equity requirements, Borrower may provide Lender with a Draw Request to make an interest Advance in the amount equal to the accrued but unpaid interest under the unpaid Note. Upon the earlier of the Amortization Commencement Date and the full distribution of the Interest Allocation as provided in the Budget, Borrower shall make interest payments directly to Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Note, but shall not be entitled to any other Advances to pay such interest.
(c) Operating Loss Allocation.

Any Advance requested by Borrower from such Allocation shall be required to satisfy the same conditions as required for a disbursement from the Impositions Reserve as described in Section 6.6 hereof. Upon Borrower’s establishment of the Impositions Reserve pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof, Lender shall have no further obligation to make Advances from the Tax and Insurance Allocation.
Section 3.6. Borrower's Deposit. A Reserve account ("Borrower's Deposit") shall be established at Lender to the extent required pursuant to this Section 3.6 which Borrower's Deposit shall be managed and held in accordance with the terms of this provision. Borrower shall have no access whatsoever to the Borrower's Deposit except pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.6. If at any time Lender shall in its reasonable discretion deem that the undisbursed proceeds of the Loan are insufficient to meet the costs of completing construction of the Improvements plus the cost of insurance, ad valorem taxes, interest or other required payments on the Loan and other normal costs of the Improvements (including the operation thereof), Borrower shall deposit with Lender, within five (5) days of Lender's written request therefor, sufficient additional funds to cover the deficiency which Lender deems to exist. All sums in the Borrower's Deposit shall be subject to designation by Lender as being allocated to interest carry, contingency or any other allocation as Lender may designate. At Lender's discretion, monies in the Borrower's Deposit will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof as if they constituted a part of the Loan being made hereunder.
Section 3.7. No Third Party Beneficiaries. The benefits of this Agreement shall not inure to any third party, nor shall this Agreement be construed to make or render Lender liable to any materialmen, subcontractors, contractors, laborers or others for goods and materials supplied or work and labor furnished in connection with the construction of the Improvements or for debts or claims accruing to any such Persons against Borrower. Lender shall not be liable for the manner in which any Advances under this Agreement may be applied by Borrower, Contractor and any of Borrower's other contractors or subcontractors. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Loan Documents, or any conduct or course of conduct by the parties hereto, before or after signing the Loan Documents, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating any rights, claims or causes of action against Lender, or any of its officers, directors, agents or employees, in favor of any contractor, subcontractor, supplier of labor or materials, or any of their respective creditors, or any other Person other than Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Advances made to any contractor, subcontractor or supplier of labor or materials, pursuant to any requests for Advances, whether or not such request is required to be approved by Borrower, shall not be deemed a recognition by Lender of a third-party borrower status of any such Person.

Section 5.5. Insurance. Borrower shall, at Borrower's expense, maintain in force and effect on the Mortgaged Property at all times while this Agreement continues in effect insurance coverage satisfying Lender's then current requirements and criteria (including, without limitation, Lender's requirements as to amount, identity of insurer and nature of coverage). All such insurance shall (i) be with insurers authorized to do business in the state in which the Land is situated and who have and maintain a rating of at least A-, V or better from Best's Insurance Guide; (ii) contain the complete address of the Land (or a complete legal description); (iii) be for a term of at least one (1) year; (iv) contain deductibles no greater than Twenty Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($25,000.00) or as otherwise required by Lender; and (v) be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, content, forms of policies, method by which premiums are paid and expiration dates. Borrower shall as of the date hereof deliver to Lender evidence that said insurance policies have been paid current as of the date hereof and certified copies of such insurance policies and original certificates of insurance signed by an authorized agent evidencing such insurance satisfactory to Lender. Borrower shall renew all such insurance and deliver to Lender certificates evidencing such renewals at least fifteen (15) days before any such insurance shall expire. Without limiting the required endorsements to insurance policies, Borrower further agrees that all such policies shall provide that proceeds thereunder shall be payable to Lender, its successors and assigns, pursuant and subject to a mortgagee clause (without contribution) of standard form attached to, or otherwise made a part of, the applicable policy and that Lender, its successors and assigns, shall be named as an additional insured under all liability insurance policies.

Any amounts so advanced by Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate, shall be secured by this Agreement, the Lien Instrument and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the Indebtedness. Lender shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Lender has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after failure of Borrower to furnish such insurance.

The initial deposit designated by Lender shall take into account the due date (or, as applicable, earliest payment date without penalty) applicable for both Impositions and insurance premiums as well as the remaining additional monthly deposit dates between such initial deposit and the date such payments are so due. The subsequent monthly deposits into the Impositions Reserve shall be determined by Lender taking into account (w) Lender's determination of the projected premiums that will next become due and payable on the insurance policies covering Borrower, the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or such other insurance policies required hereby or by the Loan Documents, (x) Lender's determination of the projected Impositions next due on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, (y) any then current balance in the Impositions Reserve or sums otherwise previously paid by Borrower against the foregoing obligations, and (z) the number of months to elapse before, in each case, such premiums or Impositions shall become due. Lender shall be entitled to designate the deposited amounts such that adequate monies will be available for such purpose in the Impositions Reserve at least one (1) month prior to the date when each such premium or Imposition will become due (or when premiums or penalties shall thereafter be assessed).
(ii) Any excess reserve shall, at the discretion of Lender, be credited by Lender on subsequent reserve payments or subsequent payments to be made on the Note by the maker thereof, and any deficiency shall be paid by Borrower to Lender on or before the date when Lender demands such payment to be made, but in no event after the date when such premiums and Impositions shall become delinquent. In the event there exists a deficiency in such fund or reserve at any time when Impositions or insurance premiums are due and payable, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, advance the amount of such deficiency on behalf of Borrower and such amounts so advanced shall become a part of the Indebtedness, shall be immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Default Interest Rate from the date of such advance through and including the date of repayment. The interest of Borrower in all sums deposited with Lender under the provisions hereof or otherwise shall automatically transfer to the new holder of legal title to the Mortgaged Property upon the transfer of legal title to the Mortgaged Property, without implying Lender's consent to such transfer of legal title.
(b) Borrower shall be responsible for ensuring the receipt by Lender, at least thirty (30) days prior to the respective due date for payment thereof, of all bills, invoices and statements for all Impositions and insurance premiums to be paid from the Impositions Reserve, and Borrower may request that Lender directly pay such amounts due as indicated on such statements. So long as (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no circumstance exists, which with the giving of notice, or passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and (ii) Lender is otherwise obliged under the Loan Documents to advance such amounts due for the outstanding amounts indicated on such statements, Lender shall not unreasonably refuse to directly pay the Governmental Authority or other party entitled thereto to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Impositions Reserve. In making any payment from the Impositions Reserve, Lender shall be entitled to rely on any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or insurance company or agent without any inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate and without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity, enforceability or contestability of any tax, assessment, valuation, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof.

Section 6.7. Security Interest in Reserves.
(a) As additional security for the payment and performance by Borrower of all duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Note and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns, conveys, pledges, mortgages, transfers, delivers, deposits, sets over and confirms unto Lender, and hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the Reserves, including (i) the accounts into which the Reserves have been deposited; (ii) all insurance on said accounts; (iii) all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles or other rights and interests pertaining thereto; (iv) all sums now or hereafter therein or represented thereby; (v) all replacements, substitutions or proceeds thereof; (vi) all instruments and documents now or hereafter evidencing the Reserves or such accounts; (vii) all powers, options, rights, privileges and immunities pertaining to the Reserves (including the right to make withdrawals therefrom); and (viii) all proceeds of the foregoing. Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the account into which the Reserves have been deposited being held in Lender's name or the name of any entity servicing the Note for Lender and hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender, or at Lender's election, such servicing entity, shall have exclusive control over said account. BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND HOLDS LENDER HARMLESS WITH RESPECT TO ALL RISK OF LOSS REGARDING AMOUNTS ON DEPOSIT IN THE RESERVES, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH LOSS IS CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF LENDER OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS. Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the advancement of the funds from the Reserves as set forth herein is at Borrower's direction and is not the exercise by Lender of any right of set-off or other remedy upon a Default or an Event of Default. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, without notice or demand on Borrower, at its option: (1) withdraw any or all of the funds (including interest) then remaining in the Reserves and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) to the Indebtedness or Obligations under the other Loan Documents in such manner as Lender shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, and the excess, if any, shall be paid to Borrower, (2) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, or (3) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. No such use or application of the funds contained in the Reserves shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
(b) The Reserves are solely for the protection of Lender and entail no responsibility on Lender's part beyond the payment of the respective costs and expenses in accordance with the terms thereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of this Loan Agreement by Lender, any funds in the Reserves shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. The Reserves shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Lender's option and in Lender's sole discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Lender with the general account assets of Lender. Upon full payment of the Indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (or if earlier, the completion of the applicable conditions to release of each Reserve to Lender's satisfaction) or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, the balance in the Reserves then in Lender's possession shall be paid over to Borrower and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.
(c) Amounts held by Lender as a part of any Reserves may be invested by Lender (or its servicer) for its benefit, and, whether or not such sums actually bear interest, Lender shall not be obligated to pay, or credit, any interest earned thereon to Borrower except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
(b) Certain Other Remedies. Lender shall have the further right (but not the obligation), upon the happening of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights or remedies available to it under all other Loan Documents, to enter into possession of the Mortgaged Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete the Improvements in substantial accordance with the Plans. All amounts so expended by Lender shall be deemed to have been disbursed to Borrower as Loan proceeds and secured by the Lien Instrument. For this purpose, Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable) Lender as Borrower's attorney-in-fact after the occurrence and during the pendency of any Event of Default, with full power of substitution to complete the Improvements in the name of Borrower, and hereby empowers Lender, acting as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, as follows: (i) to use any funds of Borrower, including any balance which may be held in escrow, any Borrower's Deposit and any funds which may remain unadvanced hereunder, for the purpose of completing the Improvements in the manner called for by the Plans; (ii) to make such additions and changes and corrections in the Plans which shall be necessary or desirable to complete the Improvements in the manner contemplated by the Plans; (iii) to continue all or any existing Construction Contracts; (iv) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, design professionals and inspectors as shall be required for said purposes; (v) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may be liens against the Mortgaged Property, or may be necessary or desirable for the completion of the work or the clearing of title; (vi) to execute all the applications and certificates in the name of Borrower which may be required by any construction contract; and (vii) to do any and every act with respect to the construction of the Improvements which Borrower could do in Borrower's own behalf. Lender, acting as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, shall also have power to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Mortgaged Property and to take such action and require such performance as is deemed necessary.
Section 7.3. Lender's Offset Rights. Without limitation to the foregoing, Lender may, at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to any person or entity (and Borrower hereby expressly waives any such notice) to the fullest extent permitted by law, set-off and apply any and all monies, securities and other properties of Borrower now or in the future in its possession, custody or control, or on deposit with or otherwise owed to Borrower by such Lender, including all Reserves or such other monies, securities and other properties held in general, special, time, demand, provisional or final accounts or for safekeeping or as collateral or otherwise, against any and all of Borrower's obligations to Lender now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, irrespective of whether Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement. Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that failure, to give or delay in giving any such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application or impose any liability on Lender. Rights given to Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Lender may have under this Agreement.
CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 46
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
Section 7.4. Exercise of Rights and Remedies. All rights and remedies of Lender hereunder or under the Note or under any other Loan Document shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and no single, partial or full exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust the same or preclude Lender from thereafter exercising in full or in part the same right or remedy or from concurrently or thereafter exercising any other right or remedy which Lender may have hereunder, under the Note or any other Loan Document, or at law or in equity, and each and every such right and remedy may be exercised at any time or from time to time.
Section 7.5. Legal Proceedings. Lender shall have the right to commence, appear in, or to defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the rights or duties of the parties hereunder or the payment of any funds, and in connection therewith pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay its reasonable fees. Any such expenditures shall be considered additional Advances hereunder, shall bear interest at the rate payable under the Note for past due payments, shall be secured by the Loan Documents and shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand.

The purpose of all requirements of Lender hereunder is solely to allow Lender to check and require documentation (including lien waivers) sufficient to protect Lender and the Loan contemplated hereby. Borrower shall have no right to rely on any procedures required by Lender, Borrower hereby acknowledging that Borrower has sole responsibility for constructing the Improvements and paying for work done in accordance therewith and that Borrower has solely, on Borrower's own behalf, selected or approved each contractor, each subcontractor and each materialman, Lender having no responsibility for any such Persons or for the quality of their materials or workmanship.

Any of the foregoing parties shall have the right to change its address for notice hereunder to any other location within the continental United States by the giving of thirty (30) days' notice to the other party in the manner set forth herein.
Section 9.3. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of, Borrower and Lender, and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender.
(a) Participation and Assignment. Lender may, at any time and from time to time, sell or grant, without prior notice to or the consent of Borrower, to any person or entity participations in all or any part of the Loan, the Loan Documents, any Advance, or all or part of the Note. Any participant shall be entitled to receive all information received by Lender regarding the Mortgaged Property, Borrower, any of its principals and any of the Guarantors, including (without limitation) information required to be disclosed to a participant pursuant to any applicable banking regulations. If Lender shall sell or grant any participation: (i) Lender shall retain its right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower relating to the Loan, including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any participant of which Borrower shall have received written notice may exercise all rights of set-off, bankers' lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such participant were a direct holder of Loans. In the case of an assignment, the assignee ("Assignee") shall, to the extent of such assignment, have the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were the Lender hereunder and the Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the interest so assigned and expressly assumed in writing by Assignee. Borrower will use its reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate with Lender in any manner reasonably requested by Lender to effect any such assignment including assisting in the preparation of appropriate disclosure documents or modifying this Agreement to further reflect an agency relationship between Lender and other institutions.
(b) Disclosure to Assignees. Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation of the Loan as described above, disclose to the Assignee or participant or proposed Assignee or participant, any information relating to Borrower or Guarantor furnished to Lender in the course of the transactions described herein.

Section 9.8. Controlling Agreement. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply strictly with the applicable Texas law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the Indebtedness (or applicable United States federal law to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under Texas law). If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount (i) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received pursuant to the Note, any of the other Loan Documents or any other communication or writing by or between Borrower and Lender related to the transaction or transactions that are the subject matter of the Loan Documents; (ii) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by reason of Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Note and/or the Loan; or (iii) Borrower will have paid or Lender will have received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of the Indebtedness and/or the Loan, then it is Borrower's and Lender's express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate shall be automatically canceled, ab initio, and all amounts in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of the Indebtedness (or, if the Indebtedness has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder; provided, however, if the Indebtedness has been paid in full before the end of the stated term of the Note, then Borrower and Lender agree that Lender shall, with reasonable promptness after Lender discovers or is advised by Borrower that interest was received in an amount in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, either refund such excess interest to Borrower and/or credit such excess interest against the Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. Borrower hereby agrees that as a condition precedent to any claim seeking usury penalties against Lender, Borrower will provide written notice to Lender, advising Lender in reasonable detail of the nature and amount of the violation, and Lender shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice in which to correct such usury violation, if any, by either refunding such excess interest to Borrower or crediting such excess interest against the Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any debt evidenced by the Note and/or the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized or spread, using the actuarial method, throughout the stated term of the Note and/or the Loan (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Indebtedness for so long as debt is outstanding. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the Note and/or any of the Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
Section 9.9. Controlling Document. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any other Loan Document, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
Section 9.10. Construction of Agreement. All pronouns, whether in masculine, feminine or neuter form, shall be deemed to refer to the object of such pronoun whether same is masculine, feminine or neuter in gender, as the context may suggest or require. All terms used herein, whether or not defined in Section 1.1 hereof, and whether used in singular or plural form, shall be deemed to refer to the object of such term, whether such is singular or plural in nature, as the context may suggest or require.
Section 9.11. Counting of Days. If any time period referenced hereunder ends on a day other than a Business Day, such time period shall be deemed to instead end on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Section 9.12. Recording. Borrower covenants not to record this Agreement, the Note or the Guaranty in the real property records of the county where all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is located. Borrower and Lender agree that the Lien Instrument shall be recorded in the real property records of the county or counties where all or any part of the Mortgaged Property is located.

Section 9.13. Publicity. All news releases, publicity or advertising by Borrower or its Affiliates through any media which refers to the Loan, the Loan Documents (or the financing evidenced thereby) or Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender, provided, however, Borrower may disclose such information to the extent required in order to comply with applicable securities laws. Borrower authorizes Lender to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials in connection with Lender’s own promotional and marketing activities, and such materials may describe the Loan in general terms or in detail and Lender’s participation therein.
Section 9.14. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY, UNCONDITIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY, WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL, WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER FORGOES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CONDUCT, ACT OR OMISSION OF LENDER OR BORROWER, OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, PARTNERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR ATTORNEYS, OR ANY OTHER PERSONS AFFILIATED WITH LENDER OR BORROWER, IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.

Special Provisions
DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO METHODOLOGY PROVISIONS
1. Debt Service Ratio Calculation. The following provisions shall be applicable with respect to the determination and calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio as called for pursuant to the terms of this Agreement:
(a) Compliance Certificate. At any point in time when Borrower is to provide evidence with respect to the existence or calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio such information shall be provided in the form of a Compliance Certificate to Lender.
(b) Calculation. The Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculation shall be undertaken for purposes of determining the Amortization Commencement Date and Borrower's compliance with the requirements of Section 2.3 and relative to the Cash Flow Reserve as described on this Exhibit B. The term "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" shall consist of the quotient derived by dividing Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) by Debt Service Requirements (hereinafter defined), which quotient shall be expressed in decimal place format (e.g., 1.25). Borrower shall provide written evidence and documents to Lender indicating the calculation methodology and backup information for such Debt Service Coverage Ratio and such shall be included in the Compliance Certificate. Lender shall be entitled to request and require such backup documentation as may be required by Lender in order to satisfy itself as to the correct calculation of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio.
(c) Debt Service Requirements. The term "Debt Service Requirements" shall mean a hypothetical aggregate annual amount of principal and interest obligations which would be borne on the Loan calculated using the following criteria:
(1) The balance of the Loan for purposes of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculation shall be deemed to be the then Outstanding Principal Balance plus any remaining unadvanced portion of the Loan Amount, all as verified by Lender in Lender's sole discretion; and
(2) the interest rate then being borne on the Loan and monthly payments calculated using a 25-year declining payment amortization schedule (taking into account and subtracting therefrom the period of time, if any, which has elapsed from the Amortization Commitment Date to the time of the particular determination), all as determined by Lender.
It is expressly understood and agreed that the Debt Service Requirements as specified hereinabove are provided solely for purposes of the determination of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio and may not equate to Borrower's principal and interest obligations pursuant to the Note for any particular period of time, it being acknowledged and agreed that the payment obligations described in the Note shall govern Borrower's obligations with respect thereto.
(d) Net Operating Income. The term "Net Operating Income" shall mean the Gross Income less Operating Expenses (as defined below), determined on a cash basis of accounting except as otherwise provided herein. As used herein, the following terms shall have the respective meanings set forth below:
EXHIBIT B, Special Provisions Debt Service Coverage Ratio Calculation Methodology – Page 1
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
(1) Gross Income. The term "Gross Income" shall mean the annual ordinary income, as reasonably determined by Lender, then derived from Borrower's ownership and operation of the Mortgaged Property based upon the then actual trailing twelve (12) month period, giving consideration to ordinary and normal seasonal fluctuations in the market in which the Mortgaged Property is located, determined on a cash basis (except as specified herein), including the following: (i) rents by any lessees or tenants of the Mortgaged Property, provided however that total rents shall be determined utilizing a vacancy rate equal to the greater of (a) the actual vacancy, or (b) five percent (5%); (ii) proceeds received by or for the benefit of Borrower in connection with any rental loss or business interruption insurance with respect to the Mortgaged Property; (iii) any other fees or rents collected by, for or on behalf of Borrower with respect to the leasing and operation of the Mortgaged Property; (iv) any refunds of deposits for obtaining, using or maintaining utility services for all or any part of the Mortgaged Property; (v) interest, if any, earned by Borrower on security and other deposits of, and advance rentals paid by, any lessees or tenants of the Mortgaged Property; and (vi) the amount of any security and other type deposits and advance rentals relating to the Mortgaged Property which have been forfeited; provided, however, for purposes of determining Gross Income, only rents from Approved Tenant Leases shall be taken into account and only to the extent such Approved Tenant Leases are fully executed.
Notwithstanding anything included within the above definition of Gross Income, there shall be excluded from Gross Income the following: (i) any security or other deposits of lessees and tenants, unless and until the same actually are either applied to actual rentals owed or other charges or fees or forfeited; (ii) the proceeds of any financing or refinancing with respect to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property; (iii) the proceeds of any sale or other capital transaction (excluding leases for occupancy purposes only) of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property; (iv) any insurance or condemnation proceeds paid with respect to the Mortgaged Property, except for rental loss or business interruption insurance; (v) any insurance and condemnation proceeds applied in reduction of the principal of the Note in accordance with the terms of the Lien Instrument or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, nothing set forth herein shall in any manner imply Lender's consent to a sale, refinancing or other capital transaction; (vi) any rentals, reimbursements or other revenues attributable to tenants under leases which are not Approved Tenant Leases or which, due to a bankruptcy or insolvency action, the cessation of tenant operations at the subject leased premises or written notice from any such tenant to Borrower of tenant's intentions with respect to such leased premises, the future rental payment to be made by such tenant appear, in Lender's judgment, to be questionable; and (vii) any rentals, reimbursements or other revenues paid by the applicable tenant more than one (1) month in advance.
(2) Operating Expenses. The term "Operating Expenses" shall mean the greater of (A) Lender's then current underwritten determination of annual operating expenses for the Mortgaged Property, as based on the Approved Operating Budget or otherwise, and (B) those annual amounts actually incurred and paid with respect to the ownership, operation, management, leasing and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property on a trailing twelve (12) month basis, determined on a cash basis, except as otherwise specified herein, including any and all of the following (but without duplication of any item):
EXHIBIT B, Special Provisions Debt Service Coverage Ratio Calculation Methodology – Page 2
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
(i) real property taxes calculated on an accrual basis (and not on the cash basis) of accounting; such accrual accounting for ad valorem taxes shall be based upon taxes actually assessed for the current calendar year, or if such assessment for the current calendar year has not been made, then until such assessment has been made (and with any retroactive adjustments for prior calendar months as may ultimately be needed when the actual assessments has been made) annual ad valorem taxes shall be estimated based on the last such assessment for the Mortgaged Property;

(iv) costs of utilities, air conditioning and heating for the Mortgaged Property to the extent not directly paid by lessees or tenants;
(v) maintenance and repair costs for the Mortgaged Property;
(vi) management fees provided, however, the amount of such management fees which may be charged hereunder shall not be less than the sum of four percent (4.0%) of the Gross Income for each applicable calendar month;
(vii) all salaries, wages and other benefits to "on-site" employees of Borrower or Borrower's property manager (excluding all salaries, wages and other benefits of officers and supervisory personnel, and other general overhead expenses of Borrower and Borrower's property manager) employed in connection with the leasing, maintenance and management of the Mortgaged Property;
(viii) insurance premiums calculated on an accrual basis (and not on the cash basis) of accounting; such accrual accounting for insurance premiums shall be based upon the insurance premiums for the Mortgaged Property which was last billed to Borrower, adjusted to an annualized premium if necessary;
(ix) an imputed required deposit into the Replacement Reserve of $250.00 per square foot of the Improvements per year (whether or not any actual deposit into the Replacement Reserve is then required pursuant to this Agreement);
(x) outside accounting and audit fees and costs and administrative expenses in connection with the direct operation and management of the Mortgaged Property; and
(xi) any payments, and any related interest thereon, to lessees or tenants of the Mortgaged Property with respect to security deposits or other deposits required to be paid to tenants but only to the extent any such security deposits and related interest thereon have been previously included in Gross Income.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary as being included in the definition of Operating Expenses, there shall be excluded from Operating Expenses the following: (i) depreciation and any other non-cash deduction allowed to Borrower for income tax purposes; and (ii) any and all principal, interest or other costs paid under or with respect to the Note or Loan.

ADDITIONAL RESERVES
1. Replacement Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall establish and maintain a replacement reserve (the "Replacement Reserve") with Lender as additional security for Borrower's repayment of the Indebtedness and satisfaction of the Obligations. Commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) the Amortization Commencement Date or (ii) the first Payment Date after an Event of Default and continuing thereafter on each successive Payment Date until the Maturity Date, including during the Extension Period, if applicable, Borrower shall pay to Lender, concurrently with the monthly payment due under the Note, a deposit to the Replacement Reserve in an amount equal to amount equal to $3,333.
(b) The Replacement Reserve is established for the payment of costs and expenses as may be incurred by Borrower for Replacement Reserve Repairs. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) all sums in the Replacement Reserve shall be held by Lender in the Replacement Reserve to pay the costs and expenses of Replacement Reserve Repairs, and (ii) Lender shall, to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Replacement Reserve, disburse to Borrower, as Lender may approve, in Lender's reasonable discretion, amounts paid or incurred by Borrower and performing such Replacement Reserve Repairs within ten (10) days following: (a) the receipt by Lender of a written request from Borrower for a disbursement from the Replacement Reserve and a certification from Borrower to Lender that the applicable item of Replacement Reserve Repair has been completed; (b) the delivery to Lender of invoices, receipts of other evidence verifying the cost of performing such Replacement Reserve Repairs; and (c) in the case of a disbursement request from the Replacement Reserve in excess of $25,000 with respect to any single Replacement Reserve Repair, delivery to Lender of (1) affidavits, lien waivers or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender showing that all materialmen, laborers, subcontractors and any other parties who might or could claim statutory or common law liens and are furnishing or have furnished materials or labor to the Property have been paid all amounts due for labor and materials furnished to the Property; and (2) a new (or amended) certificate of occupancy for the portion of the Improvements covered by such Replacement Reserve Repairs, if said new certificate of occupancy is required by law, or a certification by Borrower that no new certificate of occupancy is required by law. Lender shall not be required or requested to make advances from the Replacement Reserve more frequently than one time in any calendar month. In making any payment from the Replacement Reserve, Lender shall be entitled to rely on such request from Borrower without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount.
(c) Lender may, at Borrower's expense, make or cause to be made an inspection of the Mortgaged Property to determine the adequacy of the scheduled deposits into the Replacement Reserve and the need, as determined by Lender in its reasonable judgment, for further Replacement Reserve Repairs to the Mortgaged Property. In the event that such inspection reveals that further Replacement Reserve Repairs of the Mortgaged Property are required, then, in addition to any other remedy Lender may be entitled to hereunder, Lender shall provide Borrower with a written description of the required Replacement Reserve Repairs and Borrower shall complete such Replacement Reserve Repairs to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such description from Lender, or such later date as may be approved by Lender in its reasonable discretion. Additionally, Lender may, as a product of any such inspection, require that the amount of the scheduled monthly deposits into the Replacement Reserve described in subsection (a) above be increased in order to accommodate Lender's estimation, in Lender's sole discretion, of the likely increased cost of future Replacement Reserve Repairs. In the event that the amount on deposit and available in the Replacement Reserve is ever inadequate to pay the cost of the Replacement Reserve Repairs, Borrower shall pay the amount of such deficiency.
EXHIBIT B, Special Provisions Debt Service Coverage Ratio Calculation Methodology – Page 4
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
2. Cash Flow Reserve.
(a) Establishment of Cash Flow Reserve. Borrower shall establish and maintain a Reserve (the "Cash Flow Reserve") with Lender for use and disbursement in accordance with the provisions of this section as additional security for Borrower's repayment of the Indebtedness and satisfaction of the Obligations.
(b) Other Definitions Applicable to Cash Flow Reserve.
(1) Cash Flow Reserve Initial Termination Date: The date when the following conditions are all satisfied: (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) Stabilization has occurred, and (iii) Borrower has made the first of its Amortizing Principal Reduction Payments together with all contemporaneously required deposits into the Reserves and all other payments then due under the Note and other Loan Documents.
(2) Cash Flow Sweep Satisfaction Event: The satisfaction of the following two (2) conditions: (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Mortgaged Property, as determined by Lender, is equal to or greater than 1.25 for six (6) consecutive months.
(3) Cash Flow Sweep Period: Means the following periods of time: (i) the period from the date hereof to the Cash Flow Reserve Initial Termination Date, and (ii) the period from the occurrence of a Cash Flow Sweep Trigger Event to the occurrence of a Cash Flow Sweep Satisfaction Event.
(4) Cash Flow Sweep Trigger Event: If at any time after the Cash Flow Reserve Initial Termination Date, either (i) an Event of Default occurs or (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio of the Mortgaged Property, as reasonably determined by Lender, is less than 1.15.
(c) Periodic Deposits. Upon the first (1st) calendar month in which a Net Cash Flow exists and at all times thereafter during any Cash Flow Sweep Period, Borrower shall deposit all Net Cash Flow accruing from the immediately preceding calendar month into the Cash Flow Reserve. Such monthly payment shall be made by Borrower on the tenth (10th) day of each applicable month. The monthly reporting requirements to be provided by Borrower in accordance with Section 5.25 shall include a reconciliation with the Net Cash Flow payment provided by Borrower to Lender pursuant to this provision.
(d) Disbursements from Cash Flow Reserve. Borrower shall be entitled to a disbursement of some or all of the funds in the Cash Flow Reserve in the following different circumstances:

EXHIBIT B, Special Provisions Debt Service Coverage Ratio Calculation Methodology – Page 5
641926; Miami-Dade County – Florida
(2) All funds then on deposit in the Cash Flow Reserve shall, upon Borrower's request, be disbursed to Borrower upon the occurrence of a Cash Flow Reserve Initial Termination Date;
(3) In the event, after the occurrence of a Cash Flow Reserve Initial Termination Date, the Cash Flow Reserve is reestablished by virtue of the occurrence of a Cash Flow Sweep Trigger Event, such new balance of the Cash Flow Reserve shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the occurrence of a Cash Flow Sweep Satisfaction Event; provided, however, it is recognized that a Cash Flow Sweep Period may exist intermittently throughout the term of the Loan and that Borrower may be entitled, in multiple instances, to lump sum disbursements from the Cash Flow Reserve pursuant to this subsection d(3); and
(4) Upon Borrower's repayment in full of the Indebtedness and satisfaction of all Obligations, Borrower shall be entitled to a full return of the Cash Flow Reserve
ECONOMIC INCENTIVE PAYMENTS.
3. To the extent there will be any Economic Incentive Agreements between Borrower (or an Affiliate of Borrower) and a Governmental Authority with respect to the Land, Borrower (or such Affiliate of Borrower) shall transfer and assign to Lender all of Borrower's (or such Affiliate's of Borrower) rights and interests, but not its obligations, in, under and to each of such Economic Incentive Agreements (including, without limitation, the Economic Incentive Payments and any right with respect thereto held by Borrower or such Affiliate of Borrower, directly or indirectly). Borrower further agrees it shall cause any and all Economic Incentive Payments, including any proceeds or reimbursements received under any Tax Increment Financing, to be directly paid to Lender in full for application against the Loan. To the extent Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower should nonetheless receive any such Economic Incentive Payments, Borrower acknowledges that such amounts shall be held in trust for the sole benefit of Lender and that Borrower shall cause such amounts to be immediately tendered to Lender.
