Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
 
On January 17, 2014, a joint venture of Forestar Group Inc. (the “Company”) obtained a senior secured construction loan (the “Loan”) in the amount of $51,950,000 from PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”).  The venture is owned 30% by a subsidiary of the Company and 70% by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company. The purpose of the Loan is to finance the venture’s construction of a 320 unit multifamily project located in Nashville, Tennessee (the “Project”).  The Loan is secured by a lien on the Project land and improvements to be constructed, and by a collateral assignment of present and future leases and rents.  The Loan bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus 2.50%, payable monthly, has an initial term of 36 months (“Initial Loan Term”) and may be extended for two additional 12-month periods following the Initial Loan Term, subject to payment of extension fees and fulfillment of specified conditions.  The Loan may be repaid in full or in part at any time, subject to certain conditions.  The Company has provided PNC with a guaranty of completion of the improvements (the “completion guaranty”); a guaranty (the “principal guaranty”) of repayment of 25% of the principal, repayment of all accrued and unpaid interest, and payment of all operating expenses of the Project (except for certain expenses); and a standard nonrecourse carve-out guaranty (collectively, the “Guaranty”).  The principal guaranty will reduce from 25% to 0% of the principal upon achievement of a 1.4:1.0 debt service coverage ratio and not greater than a 60% loan to value ratio.
 
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the guaranty agreements, which are attached as Exhibit 10.1, and Exhibit 10.2, and incorporated by reference.
