ARTICLE 2

DESCRIPTION OF FACILITY

2.01 Facility.

(a) Obligation to Make Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender will make Advances to Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base Availability or (ii) the Commitment Amount (less the amount of Lender’s letters of credit issued under this Agreement). Borrower’s obligation to repay the Facility is evidenced by the Note. Borrower may draw up to $40,000,000.00 from time to time on a revolving basis to finance (i) land acquisition, (ii) the purchase of Finished Lots, (iii) the development of land into Finished Lots, and (iv) the construction of single-family residential Units on Finished Lots. If all conditions for Advances are met and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lender will make Advances to Borrower or disburse to third parties as Borrower may direct and Lender may approve, commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the Maturity Date.

(b) Security for Facility. As security for the payment and performance of the Indebtedness and Obligations of Borrower to Lender under the Loan Documents, Borrower has delivered

to Lender the Deed of Trust and Financing Statements encumbering the Projects comprising the Collateral Pool. Borrower grants to Lender a continuing security interest in all personal property of Borrower, now or in the future, in the possession of Lender, as security for the payment of the Note and any other liabilities of Borrower arising under the other Loan Documents, which security interest shall be enforceable as if the property were specifically pledged under this Agreement excluding any swap agreements (as defined in 11 U.S.C. §101) to Lender or any of its affiliates.

(c) Interest Rate. Advances outstanding under the Note (principal) shall bear interest at the interest rate set forth in the Note (“Interest Rate”), subject to the conditions and limitations contained in this Agreement and in the Note.

(d) Termination of Facility. The Facility shall terminate at the close of business (5:00 p.m.) on the day prior to the Maturity Date unless Lender has exercised its demand right or there shall have sooner occurred an Event of Default under this Agreement, in which event Lender may immediately accelerate the Facility without prior notice to Borrower; in any event, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and the Facility has been terminated.

2.02 Additional Provisions Related to Principal, Interest and Costs.

(a) Increased Costs. If, due to one or more of: (i) the introduction of any applicable law or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application of any law or regulation by any applicable governmental authority; or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any governmental authority, there shall be an increase in the cost to Lender of agreeing to, issuing or participating in letters of credit, including changes which affect or would affect the amount of capital or reserves required or expected to be maintained by Lender, or any corporation controlling Lender, with respect to any portion of this Facility, then Borrower, from time to time, shall, on written demand by Lender, pay Lender additional amounts sufficient to indemnify Lender against the increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of the increased cost and the reason for that increase submitted to Borrower by Lender, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(b) Payments Net of Taxes. All payments and prepayments of principal and interest under the Note shall be made net of any taxes and costs resulting from having principal outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the preceding obligation, taxes shall include illustrations of the taxes and costs, the withholding of amounts for taxes, of any nature whatsoever including income, excise, interest equalization taxes (other than United States or state income taxes), as well as all levies, imposts, duties or fees whether now in existence or as the result of a change in or promulgation of any treaty, statute, regulation or interpretation thereof or any directive guideline or otherwise by a central bank or fiscal authority (whether or not having the force of law) or a change in the basis of, or the time of payment of, those taxes or other amounts resulting therefrom.

(c) Repayment of Principal and Interest. Commencing on the 10th day of June, 2006, and continuing on the 10th day of each succeeding month until the Maturity Date (each, a “Payment Date”), interest only on the outstanding principal advances under the Note based on the Interest Rate shall be due and payable in arrears by Borrower to Lender.

(d) Prepayment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower may prepay the Note at any time. Any prepayment shall include accrued and unpaid interest to the date of prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and all other sums due and payable under the Note. Any prepayment shall not affect Borrower’s obligation to continue making payments under any swap agreement (as defined in 11 U.S.C. §101), which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding prepayment, subject to the terms of the swap agreement.

(e) Application of Payments. Each payment or prepayment, if any, made under the Note shall be applied to pay late charges, accrued and unpaid interest, principal, escrows (if any), and

any other fees, costs and expenses which Borrower is obligated to pay under the Note, in the order as Lender may elect from time to time in its sole discretion.

(f) Late Charge. If any installment of principal or interest required to be made by Borrower under the Note shall not be received by Lender within fifteen (15) days of when due, then Borrower shall pay to Lender, without further demand, a late charge of five percent (5%) of the delinquent payment. The foregoing right is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights which Lender may have upon Borrower’s failure to make timely payment of any amount due.

(g) Default Rate. Any payment of principal or interest or both not made when due shall itself bear interest on the principal and interest amount of the payment at the Default Rate, commencing on the due date until payment, maturity or the occurrence of an Event of Default. After the maturity of the Note or the occurrence of an Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the entire outstanding balance of principal at the Default Rate.

(h) Letters of Credit Sub-limit Under the Facility. At Borrower’s request, Lender may issue letters of credit (subject to compliance with Lender’s standard procedures for issuance of letters of credit and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender) if required by a governmental authority or utility or as required under Borrower’s purchase contract to secure Borrower’s obligations under a Development Agreement and to secure the performance of improvements benefiting a Project (“Work”) (collectively referred to as “Letters of Credit”), but the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding shall not exceed $1,000,000 at any one time (“Letters of Credit Sub-Limit”), and the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding and all outstanding Advances shall not exceed the Commitment Amount.

All cost estimates for the Work are subject to an acceptable review by a third-party engineer or Lender’s in-house engineer prior to the issuance of any Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be reduced from time to time as the Work is completed with the consent of the beneficiary thereof. Letters of Credit shall be governed by Borrowing Base Availability. Any amounts paid by Lender under Letters of Credit shall be treated for all purposes as an Advance.

When a Letter of Credit is required, (a) Borrower shall execute an Application and Agreement For Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit; (b) the Letter of Credit will be deemed secured by the Deed of Trust and Financing Statements and guaranteed by Guarantor and any applicable Future Guarantor; (c) the Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date no later than twelve (12) months (with annual renewal options upon payment of a renewal fee), or such other expiration date as the Lender may agree; (d) any sums paid by Lender under the Letter of Credit shall initially accrue interest at the Interest Rate and that sum, together with accrued interest, shall be repaid by Borrower within two (2) days from receipt of notice from Lender that the Letter of Credit (or portions thereof) have been paid; (e) if the Letter of Credit is paid (and not repaid by Borrower as provided immediately above), then the payment may be deemed by Lender as a default by Borrower under the Facility and interest shall commence to accrue on the amount of the payment at the Default Rate; and (f) the Deed of Trust shall not be released until all Letter of Credit are returned to Lender or the Letter of Credit are cash secured. Borrower shall pay to Lender a fee of the greater of (i) $500.00 or (ii) one percent (1.00%) of the face amount of a Letter of Credit for each new Letter of Credit and $150.00 for each automatic renewal of a Letter of Credit, the initial fee payable upon issuance and the renewal fee upon each renewal.

(i) Swap. Lender (or its affiliate) will offer Borrower an opportunity to hedge the floating interest expense under the Note by entering into an interest rate swap (the “Swap”) on or after Closing. If Borrower chooses to obtain the Swap from Lender (or its affiliate), then Borrower shall execute documentation required by Lender (or its affiliate), including the ISDA Master Agreement. Lender reserves the right not to release any portion of the Collateral Pool while Borrower’s obligations under the ISDA Master Agreement remain unsatisfied if Lender determines it is not adequately secured. If Borrower chooses to obtain the Swap from Lender, the Deed of Trust and all other security documents securing the Note shall also secure Borrower’s obligation under the ISDA Master Agreement and any

amounts due and payable by Borrower under the Swap, including early termination payments. Any payments shall include amounts payable in connection with the disposition of any collateral encumbered by the Deed of Trust and other security documents. Additionally, Borrower’s attorney shall furnish an opinion of counsel relating to those documents in substantially the same form provided by Lender or alternatively shall provide appropriate corporate resolutions.

2.03 Revolving Credit Feature. The outstanding balance of the Facility may increase and decrease from time to time, and Advances thereunder may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed, but the total of Advances outstanding at any one time under the Facility shall never exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base Availability or (ii) the Commitment Amount. Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender any amount by which the Facility exceeds the Commitment Amount.

2.04 Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Lender an annual commitment fee (“Commitment Fee”) equal to 25 basis points (.25%) of the Commitment Amount, with the first (1st) payment of the Commitment Fee due at Closing and each subsequent payment of the Commitment Fee due at the succeeding annual anniversaries of Closing. Beginning on the 1^st day of the 13^th month after Closing, if the average amount of principal outstanding under the Note is less than $20,000,000, as determined by Lender on a quarterly basis by averaging the amount of principal outstanding under the Note on the 1^st day of each month in each applicable quarter, then a non-use fee of 0.15% (“Non-Use Fee”) will be charged to Borrower on the difference between the average amount of principal outstanding under the Note and $20,000,000. The quarterly average will be calculated beginning with the 13^th, 14^th and 15^th month’s outstanding principal balance under the Note.

2.05 Conditions Precedent. The obligation of Lender to make the Advances and issue Letters of Credit under the Facility is subject to the following additional conditions:

In addition, Lender may inspect any asset at Borrower’s expense at the time a proposed asset is added to the Borrowing Base.

ARTICLE 3

ADVANCE CONDITIONS

3.01 Procedures for Advances. Any request for an Advance must be received in writing by Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. North Carolina Time on a Business Day which is five (5) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date. If each of the other conditions precedent to the Advance have been satisfied, then the Advance will be available prior to 2:00 p.m. North Carolina Time on the Borrowing Date. Unless Lender is notified otherwise by Borrower in a signed writing from an Authorized Signatory which is accepted and agreed to by Lender, Lender shall cause the amount of any Advance requested by Borrower to be paid to the credit of Borrower’s account with Lender approved by Lender. Advances shall be limited to no more than two (2) per month.

(a) All requests for Advances shall be in the form attached as Schedule C (“Request for Advance” or “Advance Request”). Any notice delivered or given by Borrower to Lender as provided shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower upon receipt by Lender.

(b) All Advances by Lender, whether or not in excess of the Commitment Amount, shall be considered part of the Indebtedness under the Note and shall bear interest as provided in the Note. Borrower shall not request and Lender will not consider requests for Advances after the Maturity Date.

(c) Borrowing Base Compliance. At any time the outstanding principal balance of the Facility (including outstanding Letters of Credit) exceeds the Borrowing Base Availability on the most recently submitted Borrowing Base Certificate, Borrower will have fifteen (15) days (without notice from Lender) from the date the Borrowing Base Certificate was delivered to either: (a) make a principal payment in an amount that restores compliance; or (b) deliver a new Borrowing Base Certificate that demonstrates compliance with the then current outstanding principal balance. No new Advances will be made or Letters of Credit issued during the time period the Borrowing Base is not in compliance. The business records of Lender shall be conclusive as to the date and amount of any Advance and any payment or prepayment of interest or principal, absent manifest error.

3.02 Repayment of Advances. All funds paid to Lender under the Facility shall be paid to Lender in Dollars at its office set forth below or any other office in the United States as Lender may designate, in actually and finally collected federal funds or equivalent and shall be deemed paid only if received by Lender on or before 2:00 p.m. (North Carolina local time) on the date when due. Payments shall not be deemed made or received until they are received by Lender as actually and finally collected federal funds or equivalent. If any payment is received after 2:00 p.m. (North Carolina local time) on any Business Day, then it shall, for the purposes of determining time of payment under this Agreement as between Borrower and Lender only, be treated as received on the next following Business Day; but, that the treatment shall not postpone the time of receipt for any other purpose or computation, such as preference periods applicable to bankruptcy laws, or dates relative to priority between creditors. Payments shall be directed to Lender at the following address:

Wachovia Bank, NA
Commercial Loan Payment Center
XX Xxx 0000
Xxxxxxx-Xxxxx, XX 00000-0000

The outstanding principal balance under the Note as of any day shall be the outstanding principal balance as of the beginning of the day (exclusive of interest), plus any Advances made for that day, and less any payments of principal credited to the account on that day.

3.03 Advance Rates. The Facility shall be subject to the advance rates shown on Schedule One.

3.04 Borrowing Base Availability. Borrowing Base Availability will be based on a Borrowing Base Certificate, acceptable to Lender, prepared by and submitted by Borrower on a monthly basis. The Borrowing Base Certificate will recap all Projects in the Borrowing Base and will provide specific component breakdowns by collateral type and on a per Lot and per Unit basis, as applicable, to determine aggregate Borrowing Base Availability based on the Advance Rates shown on Schedule One.

(a) Borrowing Base Availability for:

(i) Entitled Land is based on the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by the lesser of: (a) the appraised value, or (b) the actual costs incurred for purchase of the Entitled Land. The Advance Rate for Entitled Land applies only to Entitled Land with entitlements (i.e., applicable zoning is in place and all utilities are expected to be available at the time the Entitled Land is to be developed). The Advance Rate for any Entitled Land asset owned more than one year will be zero, except to the extent it has been converted to Land Under Development or Finished Lots.

(ii) Land Under Development within Projects is based on the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by the lesser of: (a) the appraised value of Lots to be developed on that Land Under Development, or (b) the Budgeted Project Cost. Any Land Under Development asset owned more than 36 months shall be excluded from the Borrowing Base Availability, except to the extent it has been converted to Finished Lots.

(iii) Speculative Condos/Townhomes, Model Units, Speculative Units, Sold Units and Finished Lots are based on the applicable Advance Rate multiplied by the lesser of: (a) hard costs for the acquisition of those Finished Lots and construction of the Unit to be constructed on said Finished Lots, as approved by Lender, (b) the appraised or evaluated value, or (c) the purchase price of that Unit or Lot plus Budgeted Project Cost, as applicable. The maximum time a Finished Lot may remain in the Borrowing Base as Finished Lot is 18 months. The maximum time a Sold Unit may remain in the Borrowing Base as a Sold Unit is 12 months. The maximum time a Speculative Unit may remain in the Borrowing Base as a Speculative Unit is 18 months. The maximum time a Model Unit may remain in the Borrowing Base as a Model Unit is 60 months. The maximum time a Speculative Condo/Townhome may remain in the Borrowing Base as a Speculative Condo/Townhome is 15 months.

(b) The Advance Rates for certain categories of assets change over time as shown under the Aging Elimination portion of Schedule One, and subject to the following additional provisions:

	•		Aging Elimination on Entitled Land begins on the date the Entitled Land is admitted to the Borrowing Base, and resets when the Entitled Land becomes LUD.

	•		Aging Elimination on LUD begins when the LUD first enters the Land Under Development category, and resets when LUD becomes Finished Lots.

	•		Aging Elimination on a Finished Lot resets when the Finished Lot becomes a Speculative Condo/Townhome, Model, Speculative or Sold Unit.

	•		Aging Elimination on a Speculative Condo/Townhome, Speculative Unit or Sold Unit begins when the Unit is added to the Borrowing Base as a Speculative Condo/Townhome, Speculative Unit or Sold Unit, and does not reset when a Speculative Condo/Townhome or Speculative Unit becomes a Sold Unit.

For purposes of “Aging Elimination”, Projects are deemed to enter into the Borrowing Base on the closing date for each Project.

(c) Borrowing Base Certificate cost data for Land Under Development and Sold Units must be updated at least quarterly. Borrowing Base Certificate cost data for Finished Lots, Speculative Condos/Townhomes, Model Units and Speculative Units must be updated at least monthly.

(d) Collateral that remains in a Borrowing Base category longer than the maximum time permitted will be excluded from Borrowing Base Availability and Lender will agree to release that Collateral from the Deed of Trust, provided: (a) no Default or Event of Default exists; and (b) Borrower is in compliance under its most recent Borrowing Base Certificate without that Collateral.

(e) Borrowing Base Limitations:

(i) Model Units and Speculative Units may not exceed 65% of the principal amount outstanding under the Note designated by Lender for Units. A Unit may not remain in the Borrowing Base longer than 36 months.

(ii) Entitled Land, LUD and Finished Lots may not exceed the greater of (i) 50% of the principal amount outstanding under the Note or (ii) $20,000,000.

(iii) Entitled Land may not exceed 10% of the principal amount outstanding under the Note.

(f) Borrower shall deliver to Lender a Submission Package with all relevant information concerning a proposed Project. A proposed Project will be added to the Borrowing Base as Entitled Land, Land Under Development, Finished Lots, Speculative Condos/Townhomes, Model Units, Speculative Units or Sold Units, unless rejected by Lender as provided in the next sentence. Lender must notify Borrower in writing of its decision to reject a proposed Project within thirty (30) days of receiving a complete Submission Package; provided, Lender not responding within the above timeframe shall be deemed rejection of the proposed Project. Regarding each Project added to the Borrowing Base, Borrower, Guarantor or the Future Guarantor holding title to the added Project (as the case may be) shall execute and deliver at each Land Closing the following: documents as deemed necessary to encumber the added Project by a first priority deed of trust lien and a first priority collateral assignment of all presently existing and future sales contracts, construction, architectural and engineering contracts relating to the added Project and all presently existing and future developmental approvals, density allocations, land development, building permits, utility agreements and any concurrency exemptions relating to the added Project as well as a first lien security interest in all documents, books records, computer disks and other personal property relating solely to the added Project. Projects that do not conform to the conditions above may be admitted to the Borrowing Base, but only with the approval of Lender in its sole discretion.

(g) A Project may remain in the Borrowing Base only so long as it continues to qualify as Entitled Land, Land Under Development, Finished Lots, Model Units, Speculative Condos/Townhomes, Speculative Units or Sold Units.

3.05 Partial Releases. Within seven (7) Business Days from receipt by Lender from Borrower of a letter detailing which Lots, Units or parcels of land and other related encumbered assets should be released in the ordinary course of business, Lender will release (or confirm to Borrower in writing that Lender will release) those Lots, Units or land parcels from the Facility, provided that:

(a) There is no Default or Event of Default; and

(b) No more than fifteen percent (15%) of assets in the Borrowing Base may be released in a monthly cycle unless: (i) Borrower pays down the portion of the outstanding balance of the Facility associated with the released Lots and/or land such that outstanding Advances after the pay-down do not exceed the Borrowing Base Availability; or (ii) Borrower submits to Lender a new Borrowing Base Certificate that demonstrates Borrower remains in compliance.

Borrower, at its cost, shall prepare and furnish to Lender the documentation for the releases, and shall pay Lender’s third party costs incurred in connection with the releases, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

3.06 Periodic Appraisals. In addition to the initial appraisals required under Section 2.05(d), Lender may, as often as Lender shall deem necessary, obtain appraisals of any or all of the Projects prepared by an appraisal firm or firms chosen by Lender and ordered by Lender. The appraisals shall be at the expense of Borrower if Borrower is in default under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

4.12 Governmental Authorizations. Except for development approvals and building permits to be obtained by Borrower, Guarantor or any of the Future Guarantors in the ordinary course of business, all authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses, and permits required under applicable law or regulation for the ownership or operation of the property owned or operated by Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor or for the conduct of the business in which Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor are engaged have been duly issued (or if not issued, the failure to have obtained same are of an immaterial nature and would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor) and are in full force and effect and neither Borrower, nor Guarantor nor any Future Guarantor is in default under any order, decree, rule and regulation, closing agreement or other decision or instrument of any Governmental Authority, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.16 Incorporation of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties made by Borrower, Guarantor or each Future Guarantor to Lender pursuant to the other Loan Documents are incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement. A breach by Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor of any representation or warranty under the other Loan Documents shall constitute a breach of a representation or warranty by Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor under this Agreement.

Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor acknowledge that all statements,

representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been relied on by Lender as an inducement to extend the Facility to Borrower and to make Advances and issue Letters of Credit.

4.17 Material Contracts. Neither the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the Facility or the performance by Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor of any obligations under the Loan Documents shall constitute a default or right of termination under any agreement to which Borrower, Guarantor or Future Guarantor is a party.

4.18 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Facility shall be used by Borrower solely for the purposes stated in this Agreement.

4.19 Tax Returns and Payment.

12.17 No Usurious Amounts. Borrower does not agree and shall not be obligated to pay interest under the Note at a rate which is in excess of the maximum non-usurious rate permitted by law. If by the terms of the Note, Borrower is, at any time, required to pay interest at a rate in excess of the maximum non-usurious rate, then the rate of interest under the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the maximum non-usurious legal rate and the portion of all prior interest payments in excess of the maximum non-usurious legal rate shall be applied to and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the outstanding principal balance. Borrower agrees that in determining whether or not any interest payable under the Note exceeds the highest rate permitted by law, any non-principal payment, including late charges, shall be deemed to the extent permitted by law to be an expense, fee or premium rather than interest.

12.18 Approvals. Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, if this Agreement calls for the approval or consent of Lender, then the approval or consent must, if given, be in writing and may be given or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender. If at any time Borrower believes that Lender has not acted reasonably in granting or withholding any approval or consent under the Loan Documents as to

which approval or consent Lender has expressly agreed to act reasonably, or absent agreement, a court of law having jurisdiction over the subject matter would require Lender to act reasonably, then Borrower’s sole remedy shall be to seek injunctive relief or specific performance and no action for monetary damages or punitive damages shall in any event or under any circumstances be maintained by Borrower against Lender.

12.19 Documentary and Intangible Taxes. Borrower, Guarantor and any Future Guarantor shall be liable for all documentary stamp and intangible taxes (including any penalties and interest charged for the late payment of any taxes) assessed upon execution of the Note or as renewed from time to time during the term of the Facility or assessed upon execution of any Guarantees by a Future Guarantor (or assessed upon execution of any security instruments executed by a Future Guarantor securing its Guarantee).

12.20 Confidentiality. Lender shall not disclose any Financial Reporting, Borrowing Base Certificates, Submission Packages or other financial reports, appraisals or insurance certificates or policies or any other material non-public information concerning Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor obtained by or furnished to Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to any person other than (a) Lender’s affiliates, and to Lender’s and its affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, representatives and advisors (collectively, the “Representatives”), who shall only use this information in connection with the consummation or administration of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (b) any prospective assignees of the Commitment or the Facility, any prospective participant in the Facility, or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, provided that Lender shall inform the parties of the confidential nature of the information with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and direct them to treat all information in the same manner that is required of Lender in this Agreement or (c) in connection with the exercise of any remedies or in any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall be permitted to disclose any information obtained by Lender: (a) which is incorporated in any Loan Documents subject to recordation and/or filing in applicable public records or is otherwise a matter of public record; (b) as shall be required by law, for instance, in the context of interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or similar process; (c) as shall be required by any regulatory or governmental authorities; or (d) as shall be otherwise required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

12.21 USA Patriot Act Notice. Lender notifies Borrower that, pursuant to the requires of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 [signed into law October 26, 2003]) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act.

12.22 Counterparts; Effective Date. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, no one of which need contain all of the signatures of the parties, and as many of the counterparts as shall together contain all of the signatures of the parties shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the counterparts of this Agreement signed by all parties to this Agreement shall be delivered to and held by Lender. This Agreement shall become effective upon the receipt by Lender of signed counterparts of this Agreement from each of the parties hereto or telecopy confirmation of the signing of counterparts of this Agreement by each of the parties to this Agreement.

ARTICLE 13

AMBIGUITY OR CONFLICT

If there is an ambiguity or conflict of terms between the Note, this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document, then the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to amend and control all of the other

agreements; and, to the extent that any of the agreements are silent, each shall supplement the others; but, if there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement, the Note and/or any other Loan Document, then the terms which, in Lender’s sole discretion, grant Lender the greater protection, shall control. All other provisions of contemporaneous or previous agreements and understandings between Borrower and Lender relating to the commitment of Lender and the Note in conflict with any expressed provision hereof shall be merged into this Agreement and be extinguished and of no further force and effect.

ARTICLE 14

JURISDICTION, SERVICE OF PROCESS

Any suit, action or proceeding against Borrower, Guarantor or any Future Guarantor directly or indirectly connected to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof, may be brought in the courts of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina or in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of North Carolina as Lender (in its sole discretion) may elect, and Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction of those courts for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding. Service of process in any case may be had against Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor by delivery in accordance with the notice provisions in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted by law, and Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor agrees that the service shall be valid in all respects for establishing personal jurisdiction over it. Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor waive any right which it may have with respect to any litigation arising with respect to this Agreement, any Loan Document or any judgment to remove the litigation from state court to federal court or to require that the litigation take place in federal court instead of state court.

In addition, Borrower, Guarantor and each Future Guarantor irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or in the future have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any judgment entered by any court in respect of any thereof brought in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina or in the U.S. District Court, Middle District of North Carolina as selected by Lender, and further irrevocably waives any claim that any suit, action or proceeding brought in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina or in the District Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

ARTICLE 15

NO ORAL AGREEMENT

THIS WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

ARTICLE 16

WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

16.01 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER, GUARANTOR, EACH FUTURE GUARANTOR, AND LENDER KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON THIS AGREEMENT OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND ANY OTHER AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR

ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.
