RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, the parties entered into that certain Amended, Restated and Consolidated Credit Agreement dated January 27, 2022, as amended by the First Amendment dated April 12, 2022, and the Second Amendment dated March 3, 2023 (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower Parties executed a certain Amended, Restated and Consolidated Revolving Demand Note dated January 27, 2022, in the maximum principal amount of $8,500,000.00 (the “Note”);

 

WHEREAS, Borrower Parties have requested an increase in the loan commitment to facilitate the repurchase of 339 Justabout Land Co., LLC, fund future development, and establish an interest escrow account;

 

WHEREAS, the Lender is willing to make such modifications under the terms set forth herein;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

 

 

 

1. Defined Terms

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

 

 

 

 

2. Modifications

 

(a) The maximum principal amount of the Note and the total loan commitment under the Credit Agreement is hereby increased to $13,450,000.00.

 

(b) This increase includes the following components:

 

  Existing commitment of $1,950,000.00;
     
  Repurchase of 339 Justabout Land Co., LLC for an estimated amount of $10,366,868.76;
     
  Initial Interest Escrow deposit of $1,000,000.00;
     
  Additional funding for development costs.

 

(c) Interest Rate. The unpaid principal balance of this Note shall bear interest as follows:

 

(a) Existing Balance: The portion of the principal balance attributable to advances made prior to the date of this Note (i.e., up to $1,950,000.00) shall continue to accrue interest at the rate set forth in the original Amended, Restated and Consolidated Revolving Demand Note dated January 27, 2022, as previously amended — specifically, Cost of Funds (COF) plus 7.0% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365-day year.

 

(b) New Advances: All new advances made on or after the date of this Note — including those related to the repurchase of 339 Justabout Land Co., LLC and the development of the Tuscany and Newcastle projects — shall accrue interest at a variable rate equal to COF (Cost of Funds) plus 5.5% per annum, also computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365-day year.

 

1.Lender shall track and apply interest calculations separately with respect to each category of indebtedness.

 

(d) Interest Escrow Account: In addition to the $1,000,000.00 initially deposited at closing, 15% of the gross proceeds from each lot sale shall be automatically deposited into the escrow to fund future interest payments. The interest escrow shall apply solely to the new loan funds related to the repurchase of 339 Justabout Land Co., LLC and the development of the Tuscany/Newcastle lots. BMH shall remain responsible for making monthly interest payments on the pre-existing $1,950,000.00 loan balance, as such portion is not covered by the interest escrow account. Lender shall not be obligated to apply escrowed funds to interest accrued on any portion of the loan other than the newly advanced funds.

 

(e) Additional Collateral Confirmation: The Borrower Parties and Lender hereby acknowledge that the real property listed in Schedule A attached hereto continues to serve as collateral for the Loan by virtue of an existing unreleased Pennsylvania Open-End Mortgage previously granted to Lender. No further action is necessary to affirm the validity of said collateral. The Borrower Parties agree not to seek release of any such lots unless and until Lender receives the applicable payoff amounts.

 

 

 

3. Miscellaneous

 

Except as modified by this Third Amendment, the Credit Agreement and all related documents remain in full force and effect.

 

This Third Amendment may be executed in counterparts and delivered electronically. Each counterpart shall be deemed an original and all counterparts together shall constitute one instrument.

 

 

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Third Amendment as of the date first written above.
