BUILDING LOAN AGREEMENT. This Note is subject to the provisions of that certain Building Loan Agreement between Bank and Borrower of even date herewith, as modified from time to time (the “Building Loan Agreement”).

NON-REVOLVING CONSTRUCTION LINE OF CREDIT. Borrower may borrow, and, upon the request of Borrower, Bank shall advance under this Note from time to time until the maturity hereof the amount so requested (each an “Advance” and together the “Advances”), so long as the total principal balance outstanding under this Note at any one time does not exceed the principal amount stated on the face of this Note, subject to the limitations described in the Building Loan Agreement to which this Note is subject. Bank’s obligation to make Advances under this Note shall terminate if Borrower is in Default. As of the date of each proposed Advance, Borrower shall be deemed to represent that each representation made in the Loan Documents is true as of such date. Advances, once repaid, may not be reborrowed.

USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall use the proceeds of the loan(s) evidenced by this Note for the commercial purposes of Borrower, as follows: for infrastructure development and the construction of 1 Home, as more specifically set forth in the Building Loan Agreement.

SECURITY.   Borrower has granted Bank a security interest in the collateral described in the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, real and personal property collateral described in that certain security instrument of even date herewith.

INTEREST RATE. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note during each Interest Period from the date hereof at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 220 basis points (“Interest Rate”). LIBOR Market Index Rate” means for any day, the rate for U.S. dollar deposits for a period of one month, as reported on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the date on which such rate would be in effect, or if such day is not a business day, then the immediately preceding business day (or if not so reported, then as determined by the Bank from another recognized source or interbank quotation).


 

DEFAULT RATE. In addition to all other rights contained in this Note, if a Default (as defined herein) occurs and as long as a Default continues, all outstanding Obligations, other than Obligations under any swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101, as in effect from time to time) between Borrower and Bank or its affiliates, shall bear interest at the Interest Rate plus 3% (“Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall also apply from acceleration until the Obligations or any judgment thereon is paid in full.

INTEREST AND FEE(S) COMPUTATION (ACTUAL/360). Interest and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the applicable period (“Actual/360 Computation”). The Actual/360 Computation determines the annual effective yield by taking the stated (nominal) rate for a year’s period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective interest rate exceeding the nominal rate.

REPAYMENT TERMS; EXTENSION OF MATURITY. This Note shall be due and payable in consecutive monthly payments of accrued interest only, commencing on January 2, 2006, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter until fully paid. In any event, all principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable on December 15, 2006 (the “Maturity Date”); subject to the extension as set forth in the next paragraph.

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Monies received by Bank from any source for application toward payment of the Obligations shall be applied to accrued interest and then to principal. If a Default occurs, monies may be applied to the Obligations in any manner or order deemed appropriate by Bank.

If any payment received by Bank under this Note or other Loan Documents is rescinded, avoided or for any reason returned by Bank because of any adverse claim or threatened action, the returned payment shall remain payable as an obligation of all persons liable under this Note or other Loan Documents as though such payment had not been made.
