NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Defined Terms; Interpretation; Etc. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

  SECTION 3. Amendments to Credit Agreement; Other Agreements.

(a)  The following amendments are made to the Credit Agreement:

(i)      The following definitions are hereby added to Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement:

“Subdivision Escrow Agreement” means, for any Subdivision, an escrow agreement among the Project Owner, Administrative Agent and the escrow agent for retail closings of Units in such Subdivision, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent.

(ii)    The following definitions in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended to provide as follows:

“Maturity Date” means January 15, 2024, as such date may be extended pursuant to Section 2.7(a).

 (iii)   The following provision is hereby added to the Credit Agreement as Section 6.4(i):

(i)    Escrow Instructions. With respect to each Approved Subdivision, if required by Administrative Agent, Borrower will, and will cause the escrow agent engaged to provide escrow services for retail sales of Units to, execute a Subdivision Escrow Agreement with respect to such Subdivision.

(b)    Centerra Subdivision. With respect to the Subdivision known as “Centerra”, Borrower has requested that Administrative Agent and Lenders permit Real Estate Inventory in such Subdivision be classified as Eligible Assets, notwithstanding the fact that such property is encumbered by one or more deeds of trust by Pinnacle West Homes Centerra LLC, for the benefit of Flying V. Land Partners, LLC (such deeds of trust, individually and collectively, the “Centerra Deeds of Trust”). The parties acknowledge the Centerra Deeds of Trust are not Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the Credit Agreement), however, Administrative Agent and Lenders have agreed to permit such Real Estate Inventory in the “Centerra” project to be Eligible Assets, subject to all other terms, conditions and limitations in the Credit Agreement, provided that the following additional terms, limitations, requirements and conditions will apply with respect to the Centerra Subdivision:

(i)     Not later than October 28, 2020, Borrower will cause the Centerra Cash Collateral Conditions to be satisfied;

(ii)    Until the Centerra Cash Collateral Conditions are satisfied, if any Eligible Assets in the Borrowing Base are located within the “Centerra” Subdivision, the total Asset Value of the Borrowing Base will be reduced by [***];

(iii)   Once the Centerra Cash Collateral Conditions are satisfied, the balance of the funds in the Centerra Cash Collateral Account (the “Minimum Centerra Balance”) must be no less than (1) the number of Lots and Units in the Centerra Subdivision that are Eligible Collateral, multiplied by (2) [***]. Calculation of the Minimum Centerra Balance will be made without including any other funds designated as cash collateral for obligations of Borrower owed to Administrative Agent and Lenders.

balance in the Centerra Cash Collateral Account exceeds the Minimum Balance, upon request by Borrower, Administrative Agent will release the excess amount in the Centerra Cash Collateral Account to Borrower concurrently with making a Revolving Loan to Borrower, provided such funds will not be released more frequently than monthly. Funds held in the Centerra Cash Collateral Account will count towards Parent’s compliance with the minimum deposit requirements in Section 7.13(b) of the Credit Agreement. Upon the release of the Centerra Deeds of Trust from all Eligible Collateral in the Centerra Subdivision, and provided no Event of Default is continuing, the funds in the Centerra Cash Collateral Account will be released to Borrower; and

(iv)  If any default occurs with respect to any obligation secured by any Centerra Deed of Trust, or any beneficiary or secured party with respect to any Centerra Deed of Trust commences the enforcement of any remedies pursuant to a Centerra Deed of Trust, then the Real Estate Inventory subject to such Centerra Deed of Trust will no longer constitute an Eligible Asset.

(i)     Not later than October 28, 2020, Borrower will cause the Destiny Cash Collateral Conditions to be satisfied;

(ii)    Until the Destiny Cash Collateral Conditions are satisfied, if any Eligible Assets in the Borrowing Base are located within the “Destiny” Subdivision, the total Asset Value of the Borrowing Base will be reduced by [***];

(iii)   Once the Destiny Cash Collateral Conditions are satisfied, the balance of the funds in the Destiny Cash Collateral Account (the “Minimum Destiny Balance”) must be no less than (1) the number of Lots and Units in the Destiny Subdivision that are Eligible Collateral, multiplied by (2) [***]. Calculation of the Minimum Destiny Balance will be made without including any other funds designated as cash collateral for obligations of Borrower owed to Administrative Agent and Lenders. If no Event of Default is continuing and the balance in the Destiny Cash Collateral Account exceeds the Minimum Balance, upon request by Borrower, Administrative Agent will release the excess amount in the Destiny Cash

Collateral Account to Borrower concurrently with making a Revolving Loan to Borrower, provided such funds will not be released more frequently than monthly. Funds held in the Destiny Cash Collateral Account will count towards Parent’s compliance with the minimum deposit requirements in Section 7.13(b) of the Credit Agreement. Upon the release of the Destiny Deeds of Trust from all Eligible Collateral in the Destiny Subdivision, and provided no Event of Default is continuing, the funds in the Destiny Cash Collateral Account will be released to Borrower; and

(iv)  If any default occurs with respect to any obligation secured by any Destiny Deed of Trust, or any beneficiary or secured party with respect to any Destiny Deed of Trust commences the enforcement of any remedies pursuant to a Destiny Deed of Trust, then the Real Estate Inventory subject to such Destiny Deed of Trust will no longer constitute an Eligible Asset.

“Destiny Cash Collateral Conditions” means that (1) Borrower has established a deposit account (the “Destiny Cash Collateral Account”) with Western Alliance Bank and deposited into such account funds in the amount of at least [***]; and (2) Borrower has executed and delivered to Administrative Agent a Cash Collateral security agreement in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent, granting Administrative Agent a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account and all money held in such account.
