Effective as of December 29, 2015, Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (the Company) entered into a revolving line of credit promissory note (the Promissory Note) with Comstock Growth Fund II, L.C. (CGF) whereby CGF II made a loan to the Company in the initial principal amount of $5 million and a maximum amount available for borrowing of up to $10 million with a two year term, which may be extended an additional year upon payment of a $10,000 extension fee (the Loan). The interest rate is ten percent (10%) per annum, and interest payments will be paid in kind quarterly for the first year, and then paid current quarterly in arrears beginning March 31, 2017. The Company pays an origination fee of one percent (1%) on the amount of the advance, up to an aggregate amount of $100,000, and a maintenance fee of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the average outstanding balance of the Loan on a quarterly basis.
The capital provided to the Company by the Loan will be used by the Company (i) to capitalize the Companys current and future development pipeline, (ii) to repay all or a portion of the Companys prior private placements; and (iii) for general corporate purposes.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Promissory Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Promissory Note, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Companys Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2015.

The Interests are governed by the Operating Agreement of CGF II entered into by the Company and CDS (the Operating Agreement).
