THE LC FACILITY

3.1 Facility; Amount. The maximum amount of the LC Facility shall be Fifty-One Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($51,000.00).

3.2 Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all terms and conditions as the Lender may require in an Application for Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit (“LC Application”) to be executed by the Borrower in connection with each Letter of Credit, the Lender agrees to issue one or more Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower in form as attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “City of Xxxxxxxxx Form”) or such other form as may be approved by the Lender. Each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to the LC Facility shall be evidenced by a Non-Revolving Promissory Note in form as attached hereto as Exhibit C (“each, a “LC Note”). The following particular terms and conditions shall apply:

(a) Any draw under a Letter of Credit shall constitute an LC Advance under the applicable LC Note, shall bear interest at the rate set forth in the LC Note, and shall be due on demand. No principal shall be deemed to be advanced or bear interest under an LC Note solely as the result of the issuance of the Letter of Credit.

(b) Each Letter of Credit shall have an initial expiry date, and each LC Note shall have an initial maturity date, of one (1) year from the date of issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit, subject to annual renewal unless, with respect to any Letter of Credit issued on the City of Xxxxxxxxx Form, the Lender shall have given the forty-five (45) day notice of non-renewal as contemplated therein. The Lender agrees that it will not give the first forty-five (45) day notice of non-renewal of any such City of Xxxxxxxxx Letter of Credit provided that (i) a renewal fee in the amount of one percent (1%) of the amount of the Letter of Credit is paid to the Lender on or before three hundred (300) days following issuance of the Letter of Credit, and

(ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and remain uncured within any applicable notice and/or cure period. Following the first year of the term of any City of Xxxxxxxxx Letter of Credit, the Lender shall have the right at any time to give the forty-five (45) day notice of non-renewal. Upon the Lender giving a forty-five (45) day notice of non-renewal of any City of Xxxxxxxxx Letter of Credit, the original Letter of Credit must be returned to the Lender on or before the end of the forty-five (45) day notice period and the Borrower’s failure to do so by the expiration of the forty-five (45) day notice period shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under the Loan Documents without further notice. Each LC Note for a City of Xxxxxxxxx Letter of Credit shall have a maturity date of two (2) years after the date of issuance of the Letter of Credit. All other Letters of Credit shall have an outside expiry date, and each other LC Note shall have an outside maturity date, on the same date of Maturity (as hereinafter defined) of the Development Loan Note and the Construction Loan Note.

(c) If any Letter of Credit remains outstanding for a period later than the date which is two (2) years following closing of the Loans (the “Two Year Anniversary”), the Borrower’s and the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and under the Guaranty and under all of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect with respect to any such Letter(s) of Credit and the applicable LC Note(s), and the Lender shall not be required to release any security under the Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document until the originals of all Letters of Credit have been returned to the Lender, notwithstanding that the Development Loan and the Construction Loan have been repaid. In addition, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding as of the closing on the sale of the 36^th Unit, the Release Payment (as hereinafter provided in Section 4.9) shall be increased by an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the aggregate face amount of all then-outstanding Letters of Credit, and such amount shall be deposited in the LC Escrow pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof. Provided that at the maturity of the Loans the LC Escrow contains an amount at least equal to all outstanding Letters of Credit, provided that all other obligations hereunder have been fully paid and performed, the Guarantor’s obligations shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the LC Note(s) related to the outstanding Letter(s) of Credit and any interest that may accrue thereon, and all other Loan Documents shall be released.

(d) The Borrower’s failure to pay to the Lender the amount of any draw made on any Letter of Credit, together with accrued interest thereon, within five (5) days after the draw is made, shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under the Loan Documents.

(e) The Lender shall not be responsible for, and the indebtedness, obligation and liability of the Borrower under each LC Note and the LC Facility (the “LC Obligations”) shall not be affected by (i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or for any acts or omissions of the user(s) of any Letter of Credit; (ii) the validity, accuracy, sufficiency or genuineness of drafts, required statements of documents, even if such drafts, statements or documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, inaccurate, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (iii) failure of any draft to bear any reference or adequate reference to the

applicable Letter of Credit, or the failure of documents to accompany any instrument of negotiation, or to forward documents as required by the terms of the Letter of Credit, each of which provisions, if contained in the Letter of Credit, it is agreed may be waived by the Lender; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; (v) failure of the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit to present the original of the Letter of Credit and any other documents required by the Lender in connection with an attempted draw; or (vi) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Lender.

(f) In the event of the imposition or implementation of, or increase in, subsequent to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement on or applicable to the applicable Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall, at the Lender’s request, reimburse the Lender for all increased costs of the Lender of maintaining the Letter of Credit.

(g) The Borrower agrees that the Lender may pay, as complying with the terms of any Letter of Credit, any drafts, required statements or other documents otherwise in order which may be signed or issued by the administrator, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other legal representative of the party who is authorized under the Letter of Credit to draw or issue any drafts, required statements or other documents.

(h) If the Lender consents to any overdrafts under any Letter of Credit or authorizes payment or acceptance of drafts drawn thereunder with irregular accompanying documents or authorizes or consents to any departure from the terms of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement shall be fully binding upon the Borrower with respect to such overdrafts, irregularities or both and the Lender’s rights shall be, in every respect, the same as if this Agreement and the applicable Letter of Credit expressly provided for such overdraft or irregularity or both. Such consent may be given orally, in writing, by telex or in such other manner as the Lender may require.

(i) If the Lender consents to any extension of time for presentation of drafts or documents under any Letter of Credit or in the event the Lender consents to any other modification of the terms of any Letter of Credit or of any transaction under the applicable Letter of Credit, at the request of the Borrower, this Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower with regard to any action taken under such modified terms and to drafts and documents presented within such extended time. Such consent may be given orally, in writing, by telex or in such other manner as the Lender may require.

(j) The Lender shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit after the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days following closing of the Loans.

(k) Except as otherwise expressly stated in any Letter of Credit, each Letter of Credit will be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Maryland and the 2007 revision of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits of the International Chamber of Commerce (Publication 600) and, in the event of any conflict, the laws of the State of Maryland will control.

Section 3.3 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fee for each Letter of Credit in the amount of one percent (1%) of the amount of each Letter of Credit, which shall be paid at the time the Borrower submits an LC Application to the Lender. In addition, a renewal fee in the amount of one percent (1%) of the amount of each Letter of Credit that remains open for more than twelve (12) months shall be paid to the Lender upon each anniversary of each Letter of Credit, except for City of Xxxxxxxxx Letters of Credit, as to which such renewal fee shall be paid not later than the three hundredth (300^th) day following issuance of the applicable Letter of credit. Such fees shall be deemed earned in full on each payment date and shall be non-refundable in all circumstances.

SECTION FOUR

PARTICULAR TERMS OF BOTH LOANS AND THE LC FACILITY

4.1 Guarantor. Xxxxxxxx Holding Companies, Inc. (the “Guarantor”) shall guarantee the payment and performance of the Borrower’s obligations, covenants and agreements under the Loans and the LC Facility, as evidenced by the Loan Documents, including completion of Construction, and shall also guarantee the Carve Out Obligations (defined on Exhibit D attached hereto), which guaranty shall be evidenced by an instrument of unlimited and unconditional guaranty of payment, performance and completion from the Guarantor for the benefit of the Lender, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender (the “Guaranty”).

4.2 Term. The Development Loan Note, the Construction Loan Note and each LC Note are for convenience collectively called the “Notes”. The Development Loan Note and the Construction Loan Note shall mature twenty-four (24) months after the date of closing on the Loans and the LC Facility (the “Development and Construction Loan Maturity”). Each LC Note shall have an initial maturity date of one (1) year from the issuance of the Letter of Credit to which it relates, and if the applicable Letter of Credit is thereafter extended the applicable LC Note shall have an outside maturity date on the same date that the Letter of Credit would expire (the “LC Maturity”). It is acknowledged and agreed that notwithstanding any provisions herein, the Borrower has not applied for, nor has the Lender made any commitment with respect to, any extension of the Development and Construction Loan Maturity or the LC Maturity. Upon any application for an extension, any approval of an extension on any terms would be contingent upon the usual and customary underwriting procedures of EagleBank, including without limitation, full credit and collateral evaluation and review, the approval of the loan committee of EagleBank, and payment to the Lender of extension fees as determined by the Lender.

4.3 Interest Rate. Commencing on the closing of the Loans and the LC Facility, the unpaid balance of each of the Notes outstanding from time to time shall bear interest and be payable at the floating rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) above the thirty (30) day LIBOR Rate (hereinafter defined), rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest one-eighth of one percent (0.125%). The LIBOR rate means, for each calendar month, the annualized weighted average of the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rates (at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time) for U.S. Dollar transactions on the day that is two (2) business days prior to the first day of that calendar month, as reported by Bloomberg Business News; if Bloomberg Business News is not available, the Lender shall select a similar source for the LIBOR index and shall notify the Borrower of such selection. If no LIBOR index is available, or if the Lender determines in its sole discretion that any reported LIBOR rate is unreliable, the Lender may select an alternative index upon notice to the Borrower of such selection. Interest shall be calculated using a 360-day year, based upon the actual number of days for which the calculation is being made. Notwithstanding the above, in no event shall any of the Notes bear interest at a rate below the floor interest rate of four and three-quarters percent (4.75%) per annum at any time (the “Interest Rate Floor”).

4.4 Collateral. The Loans and the LC Facility shall be secured by, among other things, the following:

(i)

A first lien revolving credit line deed of trust, security agreement and fixture filing (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or substituted, the “Deed of Trust”) on the Property;

(ii)

An assignment of Leases and Rents on the Property (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or substituted, the “Leases Assignment”);

(iii)

An assignment of sales contracts and deposits with respect to the Property (the “Contracts Assignment”);

(iv)

Assignments of all Development and Construction documents including, without limitation, plans and specifications, permits, architect’s contracts, engineering contracts, Development contracts, and Construction contracts (the “Documents Assignment”);

(v)

Consents to Assignment executed by each of the general contractor, architect and project engineer for each of the Development and the Construction (the “Consents”);

(vi)

An Environmental Indemnity Agreement made by the Borrower and the Guarantor for the benefit of the Lender (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or substituted, the “Environmental Indemnity”);

(vii)

Such UCC-1 Financing Statements as the Lender may determine to be necessary or desirable.

4.5 Equity Requirement. As a condition of the Loans and the LC Facility, the Borrower shall make an equity investment in the Property in an amount not less than One

Million Nine Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,900,000.00). As of the closing of the Loans and the LC Facility, the Borrower shall have provided reasonable evidence of a portion of such investment to the Lender in the following amounts: (i) $1,295,000.00 in cash toward the acquisition of the Property, (ii) $505,000.00 in equity pursuant to the Appraisal as calculated by the Lender, and (iii) evidence of payment of soft costs (paid invoices) in an amount of at least $60,000.00. Promptly after funding additional soft costs following closing, the Borrower shall provide evidence of payment of soft costs (paid invoices) in an amount of at least an additional $90,000.00.

4.5 Deposit Relationship. As a condition of the Loans and the LC Facility, the Borrower shall establish its primary operating account and all escrow accounts (including without limitation escrow account for deposits under sales contracts) with the Lender and shall maintain such accounts with the Lender throughout the term of the Loans and the LC Facility. In addition, the Borrower and/or Guarantor and/or any related entities shall maintain an aggregate minimum monthly average aggregate deposit balance with the Lender of ten percent (10%) of the combined outstanding principal balances of the Loans, tested quarterly, with the first quarterly test period commencing on October 1, 2013 and tested at December 31, 2013. Such deposits shall be held in demand deposits or money market accounts. If at any time under any of the Loan Documents the Lender is collecting deposits for the payment of insurance premiums and/or real estate taxes, the amount(s) on deposit, to the extent unapplied as of the date of any such semi-annual test, shall be counted toward the foregoing deposit balance requirements. The foregoing deposit balance requirement is in addition to any deposit balance requirement under the terms of the loan documents for any other loan or loans by the Lender to the Borrower, the Guarantor or any affiliate(s) of the Borrower or the Guarantor. The failure to comply with the foregoing deposit balance requirements shall not constitute a default under the Loans or the LC Facility; however, interest shall accrue on all amounts outstanding under the Loans and the LC Facility at one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) plus the rate of interest then payable under the Notes (and the Interest Rate Floor shall also increase by one-quarter of one percent (0.25%)) from the date of such failure until such time as the deposit balance requirement is satisfied at the next quarterly test.

4.6. Sales Requirement. (a) As a condition of the Loans and the LC Facility, the Borrower shall diligently pursue Development of the Lots and Construction and sale of the Units thereon. In addition, the Borrower (i) shall enter into and close under sales contracts to third parties on the following number of Lots, (ii) resulting in the curtailments of the Development Loan by each Milestone Date as set forth below in an amount not less than $58,000.00 per Lot, (iii) by each Milestone Date set forth below (the “Sales and Curtailment Requirement”):


Number of Lots by each Milestone Date		Curtailments of Development Loan by each Milestone Date		Remaining Development Loan Balance			Lots Remaining as Collateral		Milestone Date
	0	$	0	$	2,140,000			45		3/31/2014

	6	$	348,000	$	1,676,000			37		9/30/2014
	8	$	464,000	$	1,212,000			29		12/31/2014
	8	$	464,000	$	748,000			21		3/31/2015
	12	$	696,000	$	52,000			9		6/30/2015
	9	$	522,000	$	(470,000	)		0		9/30/2015

(b) Such sales contracts shall be acceptable to the Lender in all respects, provided that the Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any sales contract for a Lot that will result in a payment against principal under the Development Loan from sales proceeds of at least Fifty-Eight Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($58,000.00) per Unit.

(c) Failure of the Borrower to comply with the Sales and Curtailment Requirement shall, at the Lender’s option, constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Lender agrees that it will not elect to call an Event of Default if the Borrower pays to the Lender, by the applicable Milestone Date, the amount necessary for the required Cumulative Curtailment of the Development Loan, as set forth in the foregoing chart on the same line as for that Milestone Date, to be satisfied as of that Milestone Date (the “Substitute Curtailment Payment”). Payment of the Substitute Curtailment Payment shall not, however, entitle the Borrower to the release of any Lots from the lien of the Deed of Trust. No Lots or Units shall be released except pursuant to settlement on a bona fide sale to a third party pursuant to Section 4.9 below.

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

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

“Provided that the Grantor requests the release of one of the Lots and/or Units from the lien of this Deed of Trust prior to the repayment in full of the Secured Indebtedness, and provided that the sales contract with respect to such Lot and/or Unit is in the form approved by the Beneficiary and at a minimum price set forth in the Loan Agreement, or if not set forth therein then otherwise satisfactory to the Beneficiary in its sole discretion, then the Beneficiary agrees to release the lien of this Deed of Trust with respect to any one of the Lots and/or Units, upon Grantor’s written request, upon the following terms and conditions:

(a)

With respect to a Lot for which advances have been made only from the Development Loan, payment of a Release Payment for a Lot equal to Fifty-Eight Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($58,000.00) for each of the first thirty-five (35) Lots

released. If all Letters of Credit have not been returned to the Lender at the time of sale of the thirty-sixth (36^th) Lot, then the Release Payment for the thirty-sixth (36^th) Lot shall be Fifty-Eight Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($58,000.00) plus an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the aggregate face amount of all then-outstanding Letters of Credit (the “LC Release Price Component”); if all Letters of Credit have been returned to the Lender at that time, then the Release Payment for the thirty-sixth (36^th) Lot and for each of the remaining Lots shall be Fifty-Eight Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($58,000.00) per Lot.

(b)

With respect to a Lot upon which improvements have been constructed, payment of a Release Payment equal to the sum of Fifty-Eight Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($58,000.00) plus one hundred percent (100%) of the funds advanced under the Construction Loan for the Unit constructed thereon.

The Release Payment paid under this Section (b) will be applied by the Lender first to the costs advanced from the Construction Loan for Construction of the Unit and the remainder will be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Development Loan.

(c)

The LC Release Price Component shall be escrowed with the Beneficiary as cash collateral for the LC Facility set forth in the Loan Agreement. Amounts in the LC Escrow shall be returned to the Grantor from time to time to the extent that the amount in the LC Escrow exceeds one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credits that remain outstanding.

(d)

No Event of Default shall then exist and be continuing;

(e)
