(b) As of the date of this Agreement, Lender has advanced the sum of $32,130,199.07 to Borrower in connection with the Phase I Loan (and such amount is outstanding under the Phase I Note as of the date of this Agreement), and the sum of $659,800.93 (the “Available Phase I Loan Proceeds”) remains available to be advanced to Borrower in connection with the retainage currently being withheld from the Contractor who constructed the Phase I Improvements (the “Phase I Contractor”) pending resolution of a dispute with the Phase I Contractor that involves (i) mechanic’s and materialman’s lien affidavit recorded under Document No. 2016085977 of the Official Public Records of Travis County, Texas and partially released by instrument recorded under Document 2017081465 of the Official Public Records of Travis County, Texas, and (ii) mechanic’s and materialman’s lien affidavit recorded under Document No. 2017041296 and partially released by instrument recorded under Document No. 2017126204 of the Official Public Records of Travis County, Texas, (collectively, the “Phase I M&M Liens”). Lender has agreed that Borrower may cause the Phase I M&M Liens to be insured around under the Title Insurance as a resolution of these Phase I M&M Liens until such time as Borrower resolves its dispute with the Phase I Contractor. At such time as Borrower resolves its dispute with the Phase I Contractor and settles the amount owed to the Phase I Contractor, Lender will advance to Borrower an amount up to the Available Phase I Loan Proceeds as necessary to make such payment, provided that (i) no Event of Default is then existing under any of the Loan Documents, (ii) any amounts owed to the Phase I Contractor in excess of the Available Phase I Loan Proceeds shall be paid from funds of Borrower, Guarantor or another Loan Party, and not from proceeds of the Phase II Loan and (iii) as a condition to making such Advance to Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Lender, or cause to be escrowed with the Title Company on terms and conditions acceptable to Lender, final lien releases and waivers from the Phase I Contractor and any other subcontractors performing work on the Phase I Improvements, to the extent not previously provided to Lender. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Available Phase I Loan Proceeds are not available for disbursement to Borrower to pay any construction costs associated with the development and construction of the Phase II Improvements.

2.2Advances. The purposes for which Phase II Loan proceeds are allocated and the respective amounts of such Allocations are set forth in the Budget, which Advances shall be limited to the value of the work in place as determined by the Inspecting Person.

2.3Allocations. The Allocations shall be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Budget. 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.

2.4Limitation on Advances. To the extent that Phase II 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 Phase II Improvements, or to the extent that

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 13

Phase II Loan proceeds available to be disbursed by Lender pursuant to the Allocations are insufficient to pay all remaining costs required for the completion of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall pay such excess costs with funds derived from sources other than the Phase II Loan prior to any further Advances of the Phase II Loan.

2.5Reallocations. Lender reserves the right, at its option, to disburse Phase II 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.

2.6Contingency Allocations. Any amount allocated in the Budget for “contingencies” or othernon-specific purposes may, in the Lender’s discretion after request by Borrower, or upon Lender’s own election at any time during the existence of an Event of Default, be disbursed by Lender to pay future contingent costs and expenses of constructing, maintaining, leasing and promoting the Mortgaged Property and such other costs or expenses as Lender shall approve. Under no circumstances shall Borrower have the right to require Lender to disburse any amounts so allocated and Lender may impose such requirements and conditions as it deems prudent and necessary should it elect to disburse all or any portion of the amounts so allocated.

2.7Withholding. 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 the 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 which are not bonded, (iii) failure of Borrower to make payments to the Contractor for material or labor, except as is permitted by the Construction Contract, or (iv) a reasonable doubt that the construction of the Phase II Improvements can be completed for the balance of the Phase II Loan then undisbursed. When all such grounds are removed, payment shall be made of any amount so withheld because of them.

2.8First Extension Period. Provided the following conditions precedent shall have been satisfied, then Borrower shall be entitled (the “First Extension Option”) to extend the Initial Maturity Date to the First Extended Maturity Date, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in this Section. The First Extension Option shall be granted to Borrower only if all of the following conditions have been simultaneously satisfied in each instance:

(a) Written notice of such extension shall be given by Borrower to Lender no sooner than ninety (90) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date and not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date; and, with such notice, Borrower shall pay to the Lender, the Extension Fee;

(b) The Phase II Improvements shall have been completed in substantial accordance with the Plans and Specifications, and a final certificate of occupancy, if applicable, shall have been issued for all of the apartment units which are a part of the Phase II Improvements;

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 14

(c) No Event of Default, or any event, circumstance or action of which Borrower is aware (by notice from Lender or otherwise) and with the passage of time or failure to cure would give rise to an Event of Default, has occurred and is then existing as of the Initial Maturity Date;

(d) No event, claim, liability or circumstance shall have occurred which, in the Lender’s reasonable determination, could be expected to have or have had a Material Adverse Effect as of the Initial Maturity Date;

During the Extension Periods, no further Advances will be available from the Loan and the Loan Documents will be deemed to be automatically modified to reduce the total committed and available amount of the Loan from its original amount to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan as of the commencement of the First Extension Period. In addition, commencing on the first (1st) day of the first month after the commencement of the First Extension Period and continuing on the first (1st) day of each month thereafter until the First Extended Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay a monthly payment of principal (each a “Monthly Principal Installment”) in an amount equal to 1/24th of the total principal which would be payable during the first twenty-four (24) months of a 30 year mortgage-style amortization of the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan based on an interest rate of six and one-half percent (6.5%) per annum, which installments of principal shall be due and payable in addition to accrued interest due and payable under the Note on each such date.

If the Permanent Loan Conversion has occurred, thisSection 2.8 shall be of no further force and effect.

(k) Except in connection with the Initial Advance, Borrower shall have furnished to Lender, from each contractor, subcontractor and materialman, including each Contractor, an invoice, lien waiver (on the statutory form) and such other instruments and documents as Lender may from time to time specify, in form and content, and containing such certifications, approvals and other data and information, as Lender may reasonably require.

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 26

to be used in the construction of the Phase II Improvements; provided, further, (i) Borrower shall give Lender prior notice of the off-site storage of any materials and (ii) any materials stored must be incorporated within 60 days after receipt of Phase II Loan proceeds from Lender to pay for such materials, unless such date is extended in writing by Lender.

(s) the Phase II Loan shall be “in balance” as provided inSection 3.4 (i.e., the unfunded Phase II Loan proceeds and any portion of the Borrower’s equity not yet expended are not sufficient to complete construction of the Phase II Improvements in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and pay for all costs of construction in connection therewith), and if Lender requires a Borrower’s Deposit in accordance withSection 3.4 below, then (x) Borrower shall have made such Borrower’s Deposit with Lender as provided thereunder and (y) Borrower shall have collaterally assigned such Borrower’s Deposit to Lender to put the Phase II Loan in balance by executing an assignment satisfactory to Lender.

(t) Borrower shall have funded all Borrower equity requirements indicated on the Budget.

3.3Advance Not A Waiver. 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.

3.4Borrower’s Deposit. If at any time after Borrower has met its funding requirements underSection 3.1(l) above with respect to its required cash equity, Lender shall in its sole discretion deem that the undisbursed proceeds of the Phase II Loan are insufficient to meet the costs of completing construction of the Phase II Improvements, including without

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 27

limitation, any and all Soft Costs for the Phase II Improvements, Lender may refuse to make any additional Advances to Borrower hereunder until Borrower shall have deposited with Lender sufficient additional funds (“Borrower’s Deposit”) to cover the deficiency which Lender deems to exist. Such Borrower’s Deposit will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof as if they constituted a portion of the Phase II Loan being made hereunder prior to any further Advances of the Phase II Loan proceeds. Borrower agrees upon fifteen (15) days written demand by Lender to deposit with Lender such Borrower’s Deposit. Lender agrees that the Borrower’s Deposit shall be placed in an interest-bearing account. Borrower hereby grants a security interest to Lender in and to the Borrower��s Deposit and such account, and agrees that at any time during the existing of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to offset any Borrower’s Deposit against the Indebtedness then outstanding, in addition to any and all other remedies provided under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity.

3.5Advance Not An Approval. The making of any Advance or part thereof shall not be deemed an approval or acceptance by Lender of the work theretofore done. Lender shall have no obligation to make any Advance or part thereof after the happening of any Event of Default, but shall have the right and option so to do; provided that if Lender elects to make any such Advance, no such Advance shall be deemed to be either a waiver of the right to demand payment of the Loan, or any part thereof, or an obligation to make any other Advance.

3.6Time 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 five (5) Business 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 any30-day period. Except as set forth in this Agreement, all Advances are to be made by direct deposit into the Special Account. In the event Borrower shall part with or be in any manner whatever deprived of Borrower’s interests in 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 Deed of Trust and all other liens or security interests securing the Loan.

3.7Retainage. An amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of construction of the Phase II Improvements (“Retainage”) 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 following have occurred to the satisfaction of Lender with respect to those Phase II Improvements covered by a Construction Contract:

(a) Lender has received a completion certificate prepared by the Inspecting Person and executed by Borrower and the Design Professional stating that the Phase II Improvements have been completed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, together with such other evidence that no mechanics or materialmen’s liens or other encumbrances have been filed and remain in effect against the Mortgaged Property which have not been bonded to Lender’s satisfaction (and otherwise in accordance with all applicable Governmental Requirements) and that all offsite utilities and streets, if any,

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 28

have been completed to the satisfaction of Lender and any applicable Governmental Authority;

(b) each applicable Governmental Authority shall have duly inspected and approved the Phase II Improvements and issued the appropriate permit, license or certificate to evidence such approval, including without limitation, certificates of occupancy for each of the apartment units which are a part of the Phase II Improvements;

(c) forty (40) days shall have elapsed from the later of (i) the date of completion of the Phase II Improvements, as specified in Texas Property Code §53.106, if the Affidavit of Completion provided for in this Agreement is filed within ten (10) days after such date of completion, or (ii) the date of filing of such Affidavit of Completion if such Affidavit of Completion is filed ten (10) days or more after the date of the completion of the Phase II Improvements as specified in Texas Property Code §53.106;

(d) receipt by Lender of an as-built ALTA survey of the Mortgaged Property, in form reasonably acceptable to Lender; and

(e) receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that payment in full has been made for all obligations incurred in connection with the construction and completion of alloff-site utilities and improvements (if any) as required by Lender or any Governmental Authority.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Retainage will be withheld for Contractor’s purchase of lumber, trusses, framing hardware, windows, countertops, cabinets, light fixtures or appliances.

3.8No 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 Phase II 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 athird-party beneficiary status of any such Person.

3.9Interest/Operating Reserve. Subject to the conditions to the making of Advances hereunder, Lender shall make an Advance of funds held in the Interest Reserve as necessary to pay interest on the Advances (up to a maximum aggregate of Advances of $103,000), which Advance shall constitute a principal Advance under the Phase II Loan, and such Advance shall

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 29

be deemed to have been made at Borrower’s request; provided, however, Advances will only be made from the Interest Reserve to pay interest to the extent that the net cash flow received from the operation of the Mortgaged Property (including the Phase I Improvements), after all operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property have been paid current, is insufficient to pay such interest. Further, subject to the conditions to the making of Advances hereunder, Lender shall make an Advance of funds held in the Operating Reserve as are necessary to pay operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property included in the Budget (up to a maximum aggregate of Advances of $200,000), which Advance shall constitute a principal Advance under the Phase II Loan, and such Advance shall be deemed to have been made at Borrower’s request; provided, however, (i) Advances will not be made to pay such operating expenses to the extent Lender reasonably determines such Advance may deplete the portion of the Operating Reserve attributable to interest payments such that sufficient reserves would no longer be available to pay such interest expenses, and (ii) Advances will only be made from the Operating Reserve to pay operating expenses to the extent that the net cash flow received from the operation of the Mortgaged Property (including the Phase I Improvements), after all operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property have been paid current, is insufficient to pay such operating expenses and sufficient interest reserve remains to pay interest for the term of the Loan. Under no circumstances shall any undisbursed proceeds of the Phase II Loan be disbursed to pay accrued interest thereon during the construction phase upon depletion of the balance of the Interest Reserve or Operating Reserve, or to the extent that revenues from the Mortgaged Property, after payment of all other operating expenses of the Mortgaged Property, are sufficient to pay the accrued interest or other amounts then due and payable under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon depletion of the Interest Reserve, Lender may make Advances of funds held in the Operating Reserve as necessary to pay interest on the Advances, which Advance shall constitute a principal Advance under the Phase II Loan, and such Advance shall be deemed to have been made at Borrower’s request. For the avoidance of doubt, at no time shall funds held in the Interest Reserve be used to pay anything other than interest pursuant to the terms of this Section. In lieu of disbursing Phase II Loan proceeds to Borrower for payment of accrued interest thereon during the construction phase, Lender may handle such disbursement and payment by making appropriate entries on the books and records of Lender, whereupon a statement summarizing such entries shall be furnished to Borrower.

3.10Additional Expenditures by Lender. Borrower agrees that all sums paid or expended by Lender under the terms of this Agreement in excess of the amount of the Loan shall be considered to be an additional loan to Borrower and the repayment thereof, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate (as defined in the Note), from the date of demand by Lender until the date paid, shall be secured by the Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable within ten (10) days of written notice to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to pay such sum upon demand. Nothing contained herein, however, shall obligate Lender to make such advances. In addition to the foregoing, if Borrower fails to perform any act or to take any action or to pay any amount provided to be paid by it under the provisions of any of the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender may but shall not be obligated to perform or cause to be performed such act or take such action or pay such money, and any expenses so incurred by Lender and any money so paid by Lender shall be an advance against the Note and shall bear interest from the date of making such payment until paid at the Default Rate and shall be part of the Indebtedness

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 30

secured by the Deed of Trust, and Lender upon making any such payment shall be subrogated to all rights of the Person receiving such payment. Lender will endeavor to promptly notify Borrower of such amounts paid by Lender hereunder, but Lender’s failure to do so shall not create or give rise to any liability on Lender’s part or impair or affect any of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

Borrower shall not permit the termination, amendment or assignment of any Management Agreement unless the prior written consent of Lender is first

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 36

obtained, which consent may be in the sole and absolute discretion of Lender and (ii) Borrower will cause the Manager to enter into a subordination agreement in form and substance acceptable to Lender, subordinating any Management Agreement to the lien of the Deed of Trust. Borrower will not change the Manager or enter into any other management agreement without Lender’s prior written consent, which may be in the sole and absolute discretion of Lender.

5.24Single Purpose Entity. Borrower shall be a single purpose entity at all times, the only business of which is the construction, financing, ownership, maintenance and operation of the Mortgaged Property and other assets directly related to the operation of the Mortgaged Property, and always be in compliance with its Limited Liability Company Agreement. Borrower (i) shall exist solely for the purpose of owning the Mortgaged Property, (ii) will conduct business only in its own name, (iii) will not engage in any business or have any assets unrelated to the Mortgaged Property, (iv) does not have and will not incur any indebtedness other than the Loan and trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of business and which are paid prior to the delinquency date thereof, (v) will have its own separate books, records, and accounts (with no commingling of assets), (vi) will hold itself out as being an entity separate and apart from any other entity, and (vii) will observe corporate formalities independent of any other entity. Borrower shall immediately provide Lender with copies of any amendments or modifications of its formation or Organization Documents.

5.25Insurance. Borrower shall obtain and maintain such insurance and evidence of insurance as Lender may reasonably require, including but not limited the insurance described onExhibit E attached hereto. To the extent there are any express inconsistencies between the coverages or deductibles set forth onExhibit E and the insurance required pursuant to the terms of the Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents,Exhibit E shall control.

5.26Financial Covenants. Upon the Permanent Loan Conversion Date, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, tested annually within 30 days as of each anniversary of the Permanent Loan Conversion Date (the “Testing Date”), shall be equal to or greater than 1.10:1:00, provided, however that Borrower may, at its option, satisfy the test set forth in thisSection 5.26 by satisfying the DSCR/LTV Satisfaction Requirement. Borrower shall deliver to Lender, on or before the Testing Date, a Covenant Compliance Report (herein so called) in the form attached hereto asExhibit H.

5.27 DSCR/LTV Account.

(a) To the extent funds are deposited in the DSCR/LTV Account pursuant toSections 2.8, 2.9, 2.10 orSection 5.26, the DSCR/LTV Account shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its sole discretion, apply at any time the balance in the DSCR/LTV Account against the Indebtedness in whatever order Lender shall subjectively determine. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and to the DSCR/LTV Account and all funds therein (and all proceeds thereof) as additional security to secure payment of the Note. Unless the same are applied by Lender to the Indebtedness during the continuance of an Event of Default, all such funds shall remain in the DSCR/LTV Account until the earlier to occur of (i) such time as all Indebtedness has been repaid in full, or (ii) Borrower has satisfied the

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 37

applicable Debt Service Coverage Ratio or Loan-to-Value Ratio requirement as provided in this Agreement. Funds in the DSCR/LTV Account may not be used by Borrower for any purposes, including for debt service payments under the Loan.

(b) To the extent a Letter of Credit is delivered to Lender, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its sole discretion, present the Letter of Credit to the issuer thereof for payment and apply the proceeds thereof against the Indebtedness in whatever order Lender shall subjectively determine. Any Letter of Credit delivered to Lender shall remain outstanding at all times any of the Indebtedness remains outstanding and unpaid, and Borrower shall cause the same to be renewed no less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date thereof. In the event that a Letter of Credit is not so renewed at least 30 days prior to the expiration date thereof in form and substance acceptable to Lender, then Lender may present the Letter of Credit for payment to the issuer thereof and hold the proceeds thereof in the DSCR/LTV Account and apply such proceeds in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. The foregoing notwithstanding, such Letter of Credit will be released at such time that Borrower has satisfied the applicable Debt Service Coverage Ratio or Loan-to-Value Ratio requirement as provided in this Agreement.

5.28Restricted Distributions and other Payments. Borrower shall not declare or make any distributions, dividend, payment or other distribution of assets to any holder of any Equity Interest in Borrower, whether or not such a distribution is permitted under the terms of Borrower’s Organizational Documents, including repayment of any loans made by any holder of any Equity Interest in Borrower to Borrower, return of capital contributions, distributions upon termination, liquidation or dissolution of Borrower or any development, property management, accounting or other fees payable to any holder of any Equity Interest in Borrower. All capital contributed to the Mortgaged Property or internally generated by the Mortgaged Property shall remain in the Mortgaged Property until (a) repayment of the Construction Loan in full, or (b) the conversion of the Construction Loan to the Permanent Loan, upon which the negative covenant set forth in the prior sentence shall no longer apply. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall not at any time make a distribution of assets that would cause the Construction Loan to constitute a high volatility commercial real estate (“HVCRE”) exposure pursuant to Part 217 of Chapter II of title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations. If, at any time, for any reason, the Construction Loan constitutes an HVCRE exposure pursuant to Part 217 of Chapter II of title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making or maintaining the Construction Loan or to reduce the return received by Lender in connection with the Construction Loan, to a level below that which Lender (or its controlling corporation) could have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material (collectively, “HVCRE Related Costs”) then Lender shall notify Borrower, and thereafter Borrower shall pay to Lender, within ten (10) Business Days of written demand therefor from Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender (or its controlling corporation) for any such HVCRE Related Costs and that shall cause Lender to receive the same return Lender would have received had the Construction Loan not constituted an HVCRE exposure. Any such written notice will include reasonable backup documentation evidencing the HVCRE Related Costs.

No such inspection nor any failure by Lender to make objections after any such inspection shall constitute a representation by Lender that the Phase II Improvements are in accordance with the Plans and Specifications or any other requirement or constitute a waiver of Lender’s right thereafter to insist that the Phase II Improvements be constructed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications or any other requirement.

(e) This assignment shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, any purchaser upon foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, any receiver in possession of the Mortgaged Property and any corporation affiliated with Lender which assumes Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Lender has no liability or obligation whatsoever or howsoever in connection with the Mortgaged Property or the development, construction or completion thereof or work performed thereon, and has no obligation except to disburse the Loan proceeds as herein agreed, Lender is not obligated to inspect the Improvements nor is Lender liable, and under no circumstances whatsoever shall Lender be or become liable, for the performance or default of any contractor or subcontractor, or for any failure to construct, complete, protect or insure the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, or for the payment of any cost or expense incurred in connection therewith, or for the performance or nonperformance of any obligation of Borrower or Guarantor to Lender nor to any other Person without limitation. Nothing, including without limitation, any disbursement of Loan proceeds or the Borrower’s Deposit nor acceptance of any document or instrument, shall be construed as such a representation or warranty, express or implied, on Lender’s part.

8.2No Obligation by Lender to Operate. Any term or condition of any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Lender shall not have, and by its execution and acceptance of this Agreement hereby expressly disclaims, any obligation or responsibility for the management, conduct or operation of the business and affairs of Borrower or Guarantor. Any term or condition of the Loan Documents which permits Lender to disburse funds, whether from the proceeds of the Loan, the Borrower’s Deposit or otherwise, or to take or refrain from taking any action with respect to Borrower, Guarantor, the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral for repayment of the Loan, shall be deemed to be solely to permit Lender to audit and review the management, operation and conduct of the business and affairs of Borrower and Guarantor, and to maintain and preserve the security given by Borrower to Lender for the Loan, and may not be relied upon by any other Person. Further, Lender shall not have, has not assumed and by its execution and acceptance of this Agreement hereby expressly disclaims any liability or responsibility for the payment or performance of any indebtedness or obligation of Borrower or Guarantor and no term or condition of the Loan Documents, shall be construed otherwise. Borrower hereby expressly acknowledges that no term or condition of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower, Guarantor and Lender to be other than that of borrower, guarantor and lender, and Borrower shall at all times represent that the relationship between Borrower, Guarantor and Lender is solely that of borrower, guarantor and lender.BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND AGREES TO HOLD LENDER HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY COST, EXPENSE OR LIABILITY INCURRED OR SUFFERED BY LENDER AS A RESULT OF ANY ASSERTION OR CLAIM OF ANY OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY OF LENDER FOR THE MANAGEMENT, OPERATION AND CONDUCT OF THE BUSINESS AND AFFAIRS OF BORROWER OR GUARANTOR, OR AS A RESULT OF ANY ASSERTION OR CLAIM OF ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY OF LENDER FOR THE PAYMENT OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY INDEBTEDNESS OR OBLIGATION OF BORROWER OR GUARANTOR, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY COST, EXPENSE OR LIABILITY RESULTING FROM ANY CLAIMS OF NEGLIGENCE OR

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 46

ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE BY LENDER, BUT NOT ANY COST, EXPENSE OR LIABILITY ARISING FROM LENDER’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

8.3INDEMNITY BY BORROWER. BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES LENDER AND EACH AFFILIATE THEREOF AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS FROM, AND HOLDS EACH OF THEM HARMLESS AGAINST, ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES TO WHICH ANY OF THEM MAY BECOME SUBJECT, INSOFAR AS SUCH LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES ARISE FROM OR RELATE TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY OR FROM ANY INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY THREATENED INVESTIGATION, LITIGATION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES RESULTING FROM ANY CLAIMS OF NEGLIGENCE OR ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE BY LENDER, BUT NOT ANY LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES ARISING FROM LENDER’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. Without intending to limit the remedies available to Lender with respect to the enforcement of its indemnification rights as stated herein or as stated in any Loan Document, in the event any claim or demand is made or any other fact comes to the attention of Lender in connection with, relating or pertaining to, or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which Lender reasonably believes might involve or lead to some liability of Lender, Borrower shall, immediately upon receipt of written notification of any such claim or demand, assume in full the personal responsibility for and the defense of any such claim or demand and pay in connection therewith any loss, damage, deficiency, liability or obligation, including, without limitation, legal fees and court costs incurred in connection therewith. In the event of court action in connection with any such claim or demand, Borrower shall assume in full the responsibility for the defense of any such action and shall immediately satisfy and discharge any final decree or judgment rendered therein. Lender may, in its sole discretion, make any payments sustained or incurred by reason of any of the foregoing; and Borrower shall immediately repay to Lender, in cash and not with proceeds of the Loan, the amount of such payment, with interest thereon at the Default Rate (as defined in the Note) from the date of such payment. Lender shall have the right to join Borrower as a party defendant in any legal action brought against Lender, and Borrower hereby consents to the entry of an order making Borrower a party defendant to any such action.

8.4No Agency. Nothing herein shall be construed as making or constituting Lender as the agent of Borrower in making payments pursuant to any construction contracts or subcontracts entered into by Borrower for construction of the Phase II Improvements or otherwise. The purpose of all requirements of Lender hereunder is solely to allow Lender to check and require documentation (including, but not limited to, 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 Phase II Improvements and paying for work done in accordance therewith and that Borrower has solely, on Borrower’s own behalf, selected or

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 48

the Loan Documents to a thirty party. Each participant or assignee of Lender shall be entitled to receive all information received by Lender regarding the creditworthiness of Borrower, any of its principals and the Guarantor, including (without limitation) information required to be disclosed to a participant pursuant to Banking Circular 181 (Rev., August 2, 1984), issued by the Comptroller of the Currency (whether the participant is subject to the circular or not).

9.8Maximum Interest. 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 (as defined in the Deed of Trust) (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 any of the Indebtedness, (ii) contracted for, charged or received by reason of Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Note and/or any other portion of the Indebtedness, or (iii) Borrower will have paid or Lender will have received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of the Note and/or any of the other Indebtedness, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate (as defined in the Deed of Trust) 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 Note and/or any of the other Indebtedness (or, if the Note and all other Indebtedness have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents 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 Note 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 any other 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 Note and/or other Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. All sums contracted for, charged or received by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any of the Indebtedness, including any portion of the debt evidenced by the Note 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 other Indebtedness (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Note and/or other Indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Note and/or the other Indebtedness for so long as any Indebtedness 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 other Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 49

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.
