As additional security for the Loan, Borrower hereby transfers and assigns to Lender all of Borrower’s rights and interest, but not its obligations, in, under and to each Contract (including, without limitation, the General Contract and any agreement with a Design Professional) upon the following terms and conditions:

(a) Borrower represents and warrants that the copy of each Contract Borrower has furnished or will furnish to Lender is or will be (as applicable) a true and complete copy thereof, including all amendments thereto, if any, and that Borrower’s interest therein is not subject to any claim, setoff or encumbrance.

(b) Neither this assignment nor any action by Lender shall constitute an assumption by Lender of any obligations under any Contract, and Borrower shall continue to be liable for all obligations of Borrower thereunder, Borrower hereby agreeing to perform all of its obligations under each Contract. EXCEPT FOR THOSE LOSSES, COSTS, LIABILITIES OR EXPENSES THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF LENDER, BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS AGAINST AND FROM ANY LOSS, COST, LIABILITY OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) RESULTING FROM ANY FAILURE OF BORROWER TO SO PERFORM.

(c) Lender shall have the right at any time (but shall have no obligation) to take in its name or in the name of Borrower such action as Lender may at any time determine to be necessary or advisable to cure any default under any Contract or to protect the rights of Borrower or Lender thereunder. EXCEPT FOR THOSE ACTIONS THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF LENDER, LENDER SHALL INCUR NO LIABILITY IF ANY ACTION SO TAKEN BY IT OR ON ITS BEHALF SHALL PROVE TO BE INADEQUATE OR INVALID, AND BORROWER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD LENDER HARMLESS AGAINST AND FROM ANY LOSS, COST, LIABILITY OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACTION.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 21

(e) In the absence of a continuing Event of Default, Borrower shall have the right to exercise its rights as owner under each Contract, provided that Borrower shall not cancel or materially amend any Contract or do or suffer to be done any act which would impair the security constituted by this assignment without the prior written consent of Lender.

(f) This assignment shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, any purchaser upon foreclosure of the Lien Instrument and any receiver in possession of the Mortgaged Property.

(g) Borrower hereby agrees that at the request of Lender, Borrower will cause to be executed and delivered to Lender consents from any counterparty of Borrower’s assignment of such Contract, such consents to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

(a) Borrower shall, upon request of Lender, make, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all additional assignments and documents as may be necessary from time to time to enable Lender to collect and receive any such Net Proceeds.

Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses of such Restoration (including, without limitation, any applicable deductibles under the insurance policies) whether or not such costs and expenses are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. In case of loss covered by policies of insurance, Lender (or, after foreclosure, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale) is hereby authorized, at Lender’s option, either (i) to settle and adjust any claim under such policies without the consent of Borrower, or (ii) allow Borrower to agree with the insurance company or companies on the amount to be paid upon the loss; provided however, Borrower may settle and adjust any claim provided that (a) no Event of Default then exists, (b) the loss or the applicable Net Proceeds are less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000.00), and (c) such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and provided further that in any case Lender shall and is hereby authorized to collect and receive any such insurance proceeds and the expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be so much additional Indebtedness hereby secured and shall be reimbursed to Lender upon demand.

Section 6.5. Condemnation. Borrower will give Lender prompt notice of any instituted or threatened Condemnation proceeding affecting all or any part of the Mortgaged Property and shall deliver to Lender a copy of any and all notices or papers served in connection with such Condemnation or related proceedings. Borrower may settle and compromise any Condemnation proceeding only with the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Lender shall have the opportunity to participate, at Borrower’s cost and expense, in any applicable litigation or proceeding and settlement discussions in respect thereof and Borrower shall from time to time deliver to Lender all instruments requested by Lender to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its cost and expense, diligently prosecute any such litigation or proceeding, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such litigation or proceeding. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain any Award and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with any Condemnation. To the extent Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower should nonetheless receive any Award, Borrower acknowledges that such amounts shall be held in trust for the sole benefit of Lender and that Borrower shall cause such amounts to be immediately tendered to Lender. Notwithstanding any Condemnation, Borrower shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for in this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents, and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Indebtedness.

(a) If a Casualty or Condemnation has occurred to the Mortgaged Property, Lender shall make the Net Proceeds available for Restoration as provided for in Section 6.6(b); provided that, each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(1) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(2) the Net Proceeds do not exceed One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00);

(3) (A) in the event the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the net rentable square footage of the Improvements has been rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty, or (B) in the event the Net Proceeds are an Award, (i) less than ten percent (10%) of the Land constituting the Mortgaged Property is taken, (ii) such taking does not materially impair the existing access to or parking at the Mortgaged Property, and (iii) no portion of the Improvements is the subject of the Condemnation;

(4) Borrower shall make all payments required under the Loan whether via from business interruption insurance for the Mortgaged Property or other sources;

(5) Lender shall be satisfied in its reasonable judgment that the Restoration will be completed on or before six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date;

(6) Lender shall be satisfied in its reasonable judgment that the Mortgaged Property (taking into account the Net Proceeds) shall continue, throughout the period of Restoration, to adequately secure the outstanding balance of the Loan; and

(7) the Net Proceeds, together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender, are sufficient, in Lender’s reasonable judgment, to pay for all costs and expenses of the Restoration in full.

(b) The Net Proceeds shall be paid directly to Lender and held by Lender and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.6, shall constitute additional security for the repayment of the Indebtedness and satisfaction of the Obligations. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to Borrower (or directly to third parties to pay costs or expenses of the Restoration) from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon Lender being furnished with (1) evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that all requirements set forth in Section 6.6(a) have been satisfied; (2) evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 hereof have been satisfied; and (3) such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractor’s sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably require and approve; and Lender may, in any event, require that all plans and specifications for the Restoration be submitted to and reasonably approved by Lender prior to commencement of work. No payment made prior to the final completion of the Restoration shall exceed the value or cost of the work performed from time to time (less retainage required pursuant to Section 3.1(f) hereof). Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once per calendar month.

(c) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Inspecting Person, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs and expenses which are estimated by the Inspecting Person to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, then Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) into a Reserve that shall be established at Lender before Lender makes any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same terms and conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall constitute additional security for the repayment of the Indebtedness and satisfaction of the Obligations. Lender may, at its sole election, disburse Net Proceeds for Restoration in accordance with this Section 6.6 prior to any disbursement from the Reserve for such purpose.

LOAN AGREEMENT - Page 23

(d) All (1) Net Proceeds not required to be made available for Restoration or (2) surplus which may remain out of Net Proceeds held by Lender after payment of all costs of Restoration, may be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due and payable, in such order, proportion and priority as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall approve in its sole discretion.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent Net Proceeds are sufficient to pay the then outstanding Indebtedness in full, then (1) such Net Proceeds shall be so applied, with the balance, if any, payable to Borrower, and (2) all unadvanced Loan proceeds shall be curtailed and Lender shall have no further obligation to make Advances of Loan proceeds to Borrower.

In addition to the other rights of Lender in this Agreement to increase Reserves, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to review Reserves annually to assess whether, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, an increase or decrease to any Reserves is appropriate and Borrower shall pay such increases in the same manner and timing as it is required to pay the Reserves as currently provided in this Agreement.

Section 6.9. Security Interest in Reserves.

(a) As additional security for the payment and performance by Borrower of the Indebtedness and the Obligations, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns, conveys, pledges, mortgages, transfers, delivers, deposits, sets over and confirms unto Lender, and hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the Reserves. Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the account into which the Reserves have been deposited being held in Borrower’s name (for the benefit of Lender or any entity servicing the Note for Lender) and hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender, or at Lender’s election, such servicing entity, shall have exclusive control over said account. BORROWER HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND HOLDS LENDER HARMLESS WITH RESPECT TO ALL RISK OF LOSS REGARDING AMOUNTS ON DEPOSIT IN THE RESERVES, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH LOSS IS CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF LENDER. Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the advancement of the funds from the Reserves as set forth herein is at Borrower’s direction and is not the exercise by Lender of any right of set-off or other remedy upon a Default or an Event of Default. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, without notice or demand on Borrower, at its option: (1) withdraw any or all of the funds (including interest) then remaining in the Reserves and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) to the Indebtedness or Obligations under the other Loan Documents in such manner as Lender shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, and the excess, if any, shall be paid to Borrower, (2) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code, or (3) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. No such use or application of the funds contained in the Reserves shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

(b) The Reserves are solely for the protection of Lender and entail no responsibility on Lender’s part beyond the payment of the respective costs and expenses in accordance with the terms thereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of this Agreement by Lender, any funds in the Reserves shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. The Reserves shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Lender’s option and in Lender’s sole discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Lender with the general account assets of Lender. Upon full payment of the Indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents (or if earlier, the completion of the applicable conditions to release of each Reserve to Lender’s satisfaction) or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, the balance in the Reserves then in Lender’s possession shall be paid over to Borrower and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

(c) Amounts held by Lender as a part of any Reserves may be invested by Lender (or its servicer) for its benefit, and, whether or not such sums actually bear interest, Lender shall not be obligated to pay, or credit, any interest earned thereon to Borrower except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreemeprovided, however, the funds in the Cash Collateral Reserve shall bear interest at Lender’s passbook or money market savings account rate, which interest shall be compounded monthly based on the average daily balance and shall be applied to and become a part of the Reserve which holds the funds upon which the interest was borne.

Section 6.10. Economic Incentives. To the extent, whether now or in the future, there are any Economic Incentive Agreements with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property and whether for the benefit of Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower shall and does hereby transfer and assign to Lender all of Borrower’s rights and interests, but not its obligations, in, under and to each of such Economic Incentive Agreements (including, without limitation, the Economic Incentive Payments and any right with respect thereto). To the extent any such rights are held by an Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower shall immediately cause such Affiliate of Borrower to execute appropriate transfer and assignment documents in favor of Lender as Lender may approve so as to effectuate a transfer and assignment of any and all such rights under the Economic Incentive Agreements from such Affiliate to Lender. Borrower shall cause any and all Economic Incentive Payments to be directly paid to Lender in full for application against the Loan. To the extent Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower should nonetheless receive any such Economic Incentive Payments, Borrower acknowledges that such amounts shall be held in trust for the sole benefit of Lender and that Borrower shall cause such amounts to be immediately tendered to Lender.

Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that failure to give or delay in giving any such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application or impose any liability on Lender. Rights given to Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Lender may have under this Agreement.

Section 7.4. Exercise of Rights and Remedies.

(a) Participation and Assignment.

(1) Lender may, at any time and from time to time, sell or grant, without prior notice to or the consent of Borrower, to any Person participations in all or any part of the Loan, the Loan Documents, or all or part of the Note. Any participant shall be entitled to receive and rely on all information received by Lender regarding the Mortgaged Property, Borrower, any of its principals and Pledgor, including (without limitation) information required to be disclosed to a participant pursuant to any applicable banking regulations. If Lender shall sell or grant any participation: (i) Lender shall retain its right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower relating to the Loan, including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and to grant or withhold consents and approvals, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any participant of which Borrower shall have received written notice may exercise all rights of set-off, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such participant were a direct holder of the Loan.

(2) Lender may at any time and from time to time, assign to any Person all or a part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. In the case of such an assignment, the assignee (“Assignee”) shall, to the extent of such assignment, have the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were Lender hereunder and Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the interest so assigned and expressly assumed in writing by Assignee. Any Assignee shall be entitled to receive and rely on all information received by Lender regarding the Mortgaged Property, Borrower, any of its principals and Pledgor, including (without limitation) information required to be disclosed to an Assignee pursuant to any applicable banking regulations.

(b) Disclosure to Assignees. Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation of the Loan as described above, disclose to the Assignee or participant or proposed Assignee or participant, any information relating to Borrower or Pledgor furnished to Lender in the course of the transactions described herein. Borrower will be responsible for the accuracy and completeness of any materials furnished by Lender to any actual or prospective Assignee or participant exactly as if such Assignee or participant were the original “Lender” under this Agreement.

(c) Further Assurances. Borrower agrees to cooperate with Lender at Borrower’s sole expense in connection with any proposed participation or assignment and to provide, upon reasonable request and written notice from Lender, all reasonable assistance requested by Lender and each proposed Assignee in connection therewith, including without limitation: (i) the execution of such documents as Lender or any Assignee may reasonably require, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the participation by representatives of Borrower in meetings or conference telephone calls with Lender, any assigning lender or any proposed Assignees; and (iii) the execution of amendments to any Loan Documents that are reasonably required in connection with any such assignment (including, without limitation, severances, substitutes and replacements of the Note for Lender and such Assignee(s)), provided that no such amendments will modify the material terms of any of the Loan Documents or materially impair the rights of Borrower under any such Loan Documents.

Section 9.4. Reliance by Lender.

It shall not be necessary that the signature and acknowledgment of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature and acknowledgment of all Persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures and acknowledgment of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature and acknowledgment page to any counterpart may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the signatures and acknowledgments thereon and thereafter attached to another counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature and acknowledgment pages. This Agreement may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or e-mail transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”).

Section 9.6. APPLICABLE LAW; VENUE; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED THAT PAYMENTS ON THE INDEBTEDNESS ARE TO BE MADE IN THE STATE OF TEXAS AND THAT IT IS THE INTENTION OF BORROWER AND LENDER THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS (WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAWS OR CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES) AND THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES APPLICABLE TO TRANSACTIONS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. IT IS FURTHER AGREED THAT APPROPRIATE VENUE IN ANY DISPUTE OCCURRING RELATIVE TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER IN FEDERAL OR STATE COURT, SHALL BE IN DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS, AND BORROWER WAIVES ANY OBJECTIONS WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE BASED ON VENUE AND/OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS.

Section 9.7. Headings. The Article, Section and Subsection entitlements hereof are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way alter, modify, define, limit, amplify or be used in construing the text, scope or intent of such Articles, Sections or Subsections.

Section 9.8. Controlling Agreement. 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 (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 the transaction or transactions that are the subject matter of the Loan Documents; (ii) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by reason of Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of the Note and/or the Loan; or (iii) Borrower will have paid or Lender will have received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of the Indebtedness and/or the Loan, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the amount that should have been charged if calculated at the Maximum Lawful Rate shall be automatically canceled, ab initio, and all amounts theretofore collected by Lender in excess of the amount that should have been collected if calculated at the Maximum Lawful Rate shall be credited on the principal balance of the Indebtedness (or, if the Indebtedness has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of the Note and the other Loan Documents shall 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 Indebtedness 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 amount that should have been received if calculated at the Maximum Lawful Rate, either refund such excess interest to Borrower and/or credit such excess interest against the 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 Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any debt evidenced by the Note and/or the Loan 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 the Loan (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Indebtedness for so long as debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained 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.
