The Borrower will repay the Loan pursuant to Section 2.7, may prepay the Loan pursuant to Section 2.8 and may reborrow proceeds of the Loan pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.13. (b) Concurrent with the execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement, the Borrower will execute and deliver to the Lender the Note, evidencing the indebtedness incurred by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement. (c) The outstanding principal balance of the Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the Borrower under the terms of the Loan Documents, will be due and payable on the Maturity Date. Section 2.2 Disbursements of the Loan The Lender shall make disbursements of the Loan in accordance with and subject to the terms of Article III hereof. Section 2.3 Commitment Fees (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender the annual Commitment Fee for each annual period in which the Commitment Fee is required to be paid on or before the first day of the applicable annual period. (b) The Commitment Fee shall be paid as follows: (1) upon execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement, the Borrower shall pay (A) the initial annual payment of the Commitment Fee, plus (B) the amount of $458.33 per day from the date of execution and delivery of this Loan Agreement through September 30, 2002; and (2) subsequent annual payments of the Commitment Fee shall be paid upon each Anniversary Date. (c) If the Borrower fails to pay any Commitment Fee as required under this Section 2.3 in a timely manner, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to disburse to itself proceeds of the Loan to pay such Commitment Fee. The Lender in its sole discretion (but without any obligation to do so) may make such disbursements notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default or Potential Default. Such disbursements will be added to the outstanding 17 principal balance of the Loan. The authorization hereby granted is irrevocable, and no further direction or authorization from the Borrower is necessary for the Lender to make such disbursements. If the Lender disburses to itself Loan proceeds to pay itself a Commitment Fee without first having received a request from the Borrower to make such a disbursement, then the Lender shall send to the Borrower a statement that shows the amount of Loan proceeds disbursed to pay such Commitment Fee and an explanation of the Lender's calculation of the amount. Section 2.4 No Reduction in Commitment Fee The Borrower acknowledges that the Commitment Fees required to be paid to the Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.3 will be due and owing to the Lender in advance for each annual period regardless of whether the Loan remains outstanding for the entire annual period and regardless of whether the Loan Amount is paid in its entirety during such annual period. In the event either the Borrower repays or is required to repay the Loan prior to the end of such annual period, the Borrower will not be entitled to any refund of the Commitment Fee previously paid. Upon termination of this Loan Agreement, no additional Commitment Fees will thereafter be due to the Lender. Section 2.5 Interest (a) The Loan will bear interest from the date of disbursement hereunder on the unpaid principal at an annual rate equal to the Interest Rate. (b) On or before the 5th Business Day of each month, commencing with the first month after the Lender has disbursed proceeds of the Loan, the Lender shall send to the Borrower a statement setting forth the amount of interest due for the previous month. The Borrower will pay the interest due for the previous month on or before the Interest Due Date. Section 2.6 Interest Rate Limitation The provisions of this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatever will the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the sums evidenced by this Loan Agreement exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If from any circumstance whatever the performance or fulfillment of any provision of this Loan Agreement or of any other Loan Document should involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limit prescribed by law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled is hereby reduced to the limit of such validity. In addition, if, from any circumstance whatever, the Lender should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate under applicable law, then the amount which would be excessive interest will be applied as an optional reduction of principal in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10 (or, at the Lender's option, be paid over to the Borrower), and will not be counted as interest. 18 Section 2.7 Repayment of Principal Principal of the Loan will be due and payable as follows: (1) Upon the sale of a Lot, the Borrower will repay the principal amount of the Loan in an amount equal to the greater of 55% of the Gross Selling Price or 55% of the Schedule A Value for the Lot. (2) Upon the sale of a Golf Parcel, the Borrower will repay a part of the ABF Outstanding Amount based upon the portion of the total amount available under the Loan applicable to the Golf Parcel being sold, which amount shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula: (0.65 x GAC) Lender's Release Price = OA x (----------) ( DA + OA ) (where OA=ABF Outstanding Amount, GAC=Approved Costs for such Golf Parcel, and DA=ABF Disbursement Amount.) In the event that, for any reason, the proceeds from any such sale are insufficient to pay in full the required principal payment, then the Borrower shall, simultaneous with the payment of such proceeds to the Lender, make an additional payment to the Lender from its own funds of an amount equal to the difference between the required principal payment and such proceeds. In no event shall the Borrower make a draw on the Loan to pay to the Lender the required difference. (3) Upon a Project Specific Default and so long as there is no other Event of Default or Potential Default, the Borrower may, at its option (but only if exercised prior to the earlier of (i) the Lender's exercise of its remedies under Section 8.2 and (ii) 30 days after the occurrence of the Project Specific Default), repay the portion of the total amount available under the Loan applicable to the Project as to which there is a Project Specific Default, which amount shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula: ( 0.65 x V ) Lender's Release Price = OA (----------) ( DA + OA ) (where OA=ABF Outstanding Amount, V=ABF Value of such Project, and DA=ABF Disbursement Amount). (4) In the event that the ABF Disbursement Amount is less than $0.00, the Borrower must immediately make a principal repayment in an amount sufficient to eliminate any such deficit within two (2) Business Days after notice from Lender. (5) On the Maturity Date, the Borrower will repay the entire remaining principal amount of the Loan. 19 Section 2.8 Prepayment of the Loan The Borrower will have the right to prepay the Loan at any time without premium or penalty, in full or in part at a price equal to the Prepayment Price. Section 2.9 Payments (a) All payments of principal, interest and fees on the Loan must be made to the Lender by federal funds wire transfer as instructed by the Lender in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on the dates such payments are to be made. Any payment received after 1:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) will be deemed received by the Lender on the next Business Day. (b) If any payment of principal, interest or fees to be made by the Borrower becomes due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time will be included in computing any interest with respect to such payment. (c) Throughout the term of the Loan, interest and fees will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months, each month consisting of 30 days. Section 2.10 Applications of Payments; Late Charges and Default Rate (a) Payments received by the Lender pursuant to the terms hereof will be applied in the following manner: (1) first, to the payment of all expenses, charges, costs and fees incurred by or payable to the Lender and for which the Borrower is obligated pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents; (2) second, to the payment of all interest accrued to the date of such payment, except that the payments made pursuant to Section 2.7(1) through Section 2.7(5) will be applied to the payment of principal in accordance with subparagraph (3) below and not to the payment of interest; and (3) third, to the payment of principal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all amounts received by the Lender from any party will be applied in such order as the Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect. (b) If any installment of interest and/or the payment of principal is not received by the Lender within 5 Business Days after the due date thereof, then in addition to the remedies conferred upon the Lender pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof and the other Loan Documents, the Lender may elect to assess a late charge of 4% of the amount of the installment due and unpaid, which late charge will be added to the delinquent amount to compensate the Lender for the 20 expense of handling the delinquency. The Borrower and the Lender agree that such late charge represents a good faith and fair and reasonable estimate of the probable cost to the Lender of such delinquency. The Borrower acknowledges that during the time that any such amount is in default, the Lender will incur losses which are impracticable, costly and inconvenient to ascertain and that such late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date of the execution of this Loan Agreement and represents a reasonable estimate of the losses the Lender will incur by reason of late payment. The Borrower further agrees that proof of actual losses would be costly, inconvenient, impracticable and extremely difficult to fix. Acceptance of such late charge will not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and will not prevent the Lender from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available hereunder. (c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (and so long as such Event of Default shall continue), the entire unpaid balance of the Note together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest at the Default Rate pursuant to and as defined in Article VIII of the Note. Section 2.11 Approval Period (a) During the Approval Period, Borrower may request that a residential housing subdivision or a phase thereof be approved as a Project for funding from the proceeds of the Loan by complying with the terms and conditions of Section 3.1. (b) Commencing on the Approval Period Termination Date, Borrower may not request the approval of new Projects, although proceeds of the Loan will, subject to the other provisions of the Loan Documents, continue to be disbursed with respect to the then existing Projects. Section 2.12 Extension Borrower may, not earlier than 90 days and not later than 45 days prior to the then effective Approval Period Termination Date (as it may be extended from time to time pursuant to this Section 2.12), request in writing that the Approval Period and the Maturity Date each be extended for 12 months, or an increment thereof, or such other time period as proposed by the Borrower. Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, consent or not consent to such request by giving written notice thereof to Borrower not less than 30 days prior to the then effective Approval Period Termination Date. If Lender fails to give such notice Lender will be deemed not to have consented to such extension. If the Lender consents to such request, the Approval Period Termination Date and the Maturity Date will each be extended by the time period as agreed to by the parties, from the then effective Approval Period Termination Date and Maturity Date, respectively. In the event of such consent by the Lender, the Borrower and the Guarantor shall execute and deliver to the Lender such amendments or modifications to the Loan Documents as the Lender shall require. 21 Section 2.13 Revolving Nature of Loan The Loan is a revolving loan and any amounts which are repaid may, subject to the terms of the Loan Documents limiting the amounts which may be drawn for any Project and the terms restricting disbursements of proceeds of the Loan, be redrawn. Section 2.14 Security Payment of the Loan by the Borrower and performance of the Borrower's other obligations under the Loan Documents will be secured by the Guaranty and the collateral described in the Project Security Instruments. The Borrower warrants that the Project Security Instruments will create a valid and first-lien position with respect to the Projects, subject only to Permitted Exceptions. 22 ARTICLE III APPROVAL OF PROJECTS; DISBURSEMENTS OF THE LOAN Section 3.1 Project Approvals; Project Commitments and Project Documents (a) During the Approval Period, the Borrower may submit to the Lender projects proposed to be included as Projects, all pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Loan Agreement. (b) In order to include a proposed project as a Project, the Borrower must submit to the Lender a complete description of the proposed project, including the Project Underwriting Documents, and evidence that the proposed project complies with the Project Requirements. (c) In the event that any Project is to be owned by a Person other than Borrower, the Project Underwriting Documents must specify the Project Owner, which must be a Person which is owned 100% by Borrower. The Project Documents relating to that Project will contain a provision whereby the Project Owner, in addition to Borrower, assumes all of the obligations of Borrower then, or at any time in the future, contained in this Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agrees to be bound by and comply with all the terms hereof and thereof. In such an instance, the Project Underwriting Documents must include (i) the name of the Project Owner, (ii) the charter and organizational documents for the Project Owner, including such documents as will specify who is to manage the Project Owner, and (iii) such other information as the Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, will require regarding the Project Owner. (d) Upon its receipt of the Project Underwriting Documents, the Lender will have 30 days to review and, in its sole and absolute discretion, approve or disapprove the proposed project as a Project which may be financed from proceeds of the Loan. Upon any such approval, the Lender will issue a Project Commitment with respect thereto and such proposed project will become a Project for purposes of this Loan Agreement. Section 3.2 Project Closings Upon issuance of a Project Commitment with respect to a Project, the Borrower and the Lender shall proceed to execute and deliver the other required Project Documents for such Project and close the transaction, thereafter allowing proceeds of the Loan to be disbursed for such Project. The following shall be the conditions precedent to the closing for each Project: (1) The Borrower has delivered to the Lender the Project Underwriting Documents, all the documents described in the Project Commitment, executed originals of the other Project Documents and such other agreements, instruments, certificates and opinions as the Lender requires in connection with such Project. 23 (2) The Deed of Trust must be duly recorded and in a first-priority lien position, which first-priority lien positions shall be evidenced and insured by the Title Policy.

The Inspector may take such actions as the Lender and Inspector deem necessary to verify the status of the ABF Collateral as set forth in such Inventory Project Cost Report (IN230), including random inspections of the Projects to confirm the accuracy of the Inventory Project Cost Report (IN230). The Borrower will take any and all actions requested by the Lender or Inspector to enable the Inspector to make such verifications, including but not limited to taking such actions as are necessary to allow the Inspector access to the Projects. The Lender has the right, at its discretion, to require the Inspector to inspect and evaluate the Projects and the Development Work as the Lender deems appropriate. The Borrower shall pay the costs and fees of one such inspection per Project per calendar quarter; provided, however, if any such inspection shall reveal that the completed Development Work is less than the Borrower's representation to the Lender of the completed Development Work, then the Lender may, in addition to any other remedy, require the Borrower to pay all costs and fees of the Inspector from that point forward. (2) Upon receipt of a complete and satisfactory request for determination of the ABF Disbursement Amount, the Lender will determine the ABF Value, and make such adjustments thereto as the Lender determines, all in its sole discretion, based upon, (i) Lots and Finished Lots which have been removed as ABF Collateral, (ii) the Project Concentration Limitation, (iii) a materially detrimental change, in the Lender's reasonable judgment, in the operations or value of a Project which justifies, in the Lender's judgment, that the Project be disregarded for purposes of determining ABF Value, (iv) a Project that is disregarded by the Lender for purposes of determining ABF Value pursuant to Section 6.16, and (v) such other information which the Lender deems relevant.

Up to 6 "date down" endorsements per Project per year shall be purchased at the Borrower's expense. 25 (d) Disbursements. Provided that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default exists, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, so long as the Lender receives a Draw Request Certification meeting the requirements of this Loan Agreement on or before 2:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on any Business Day, the Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to disburse to the Borrower the amount requested in such Draw Request Certification on the next Business Day following such Business Day on which the Lender received such Draw Request Certification, provided that in the event the Lender is unable to make the disbursement within such time period, the Lender will disburse the proceeds of the Loan as soon thereafter as possible. All disbursements will be delivered to the Borrower by federal funds wire transfer as instructed by the Borrower. (e) The ABF Funding System. Lender grants the Borrower, as licensee, a nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use the ABF Funding System.

The Borrower shall not (i) permit any parent (other than the Guarantor), subsidiary, affiliated entity or third party to use the ABF Funding System, (ii) process or permit to be processed the data of any person or entity other than the Lender or the Borrower, or (iii) use the ABF Funding System in the operation of a service bureau. (2) The Borrower agrees that the ABF Funding System and all related information constitute the confidential and proprietary information of the Lender. The Borrower, its employees and agents shall at all times maintain the confidentiality of the ABF Funding System and any related information and refrain from selling, licensing, publishing, displaying, distributing, disclosing or otherwise making available the ABF Funding System or related information to any third party, or using the ABF Funding System or related information except as authorized by this Loan Agreement.

The Borrower will not disassemble, decompile, re-engineer, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to discover the source code or structural framework of the ABF Funding System's program. The Borrower will not use the ABF Funding System for unauthorized entry into the Lender's computer network. (5) The Lender warrants that it is authorized to grant this license and to the best of its knowledge, the ABF Funding System does not infringe on anyone's proprietary rights. The Lender does not warrant that the functions contained in the ABF Funding System will meet the Borrower's requirements, or that the operation of the program will be error free. No information or advice provided by the Lender will create a warranty, nor will the Borrower rely on such information or advice. 26 ================================================================================ (6) The foregoing warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to those of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or any warranty arising from course of dealing, usage or trade practice. (7) The Lender shall not be liable to the Borrower for any damage, including indirect, special, incidental, exemplary or consequential damages (including, without limitation, lost profits) related to the ABF Funding System or resulting from the use of or inability to use the ABF Funding System, arising from any cause of action, including contract, warranty, strict liability or negligence, even if the Lender has been notified of the possibility of such damages, or for any claim by any other party. ================================================================================ (8) The Borrower acknowledges that any breach of this Section 3.3(e) would cause irreparable harm to the Lender for which any remedy at law would be inadequate.

(B) Declare the Note to be immediately due and payable and record a notice of default under any Deed of Trust. (C) Make any disbursements after the happening of any one or more Events of Default, without thereby waiving its right to demand payment of the Note and all other sums owing to Lender with respect to the Project Documents or any other rights or remedies described herein, and without liability to make any other or further disbursements, notwithstanding Lender's previous exercise of any such rights and remedies. (D) Enter upon the Project and with or without legal process take possession of the Project without breaching the peace, remove the Borrower and all employees, contractors and agents of the Borrower therefrom, and complete or attempt to complete construction of the Development Work in accordance with the Plans and Specifications with such changes, additions or corrections therein as 52 the Lender may from time to time and in its judgment deem appropriate, and market, sell or lease the Project, at the risk and expense of the Borrower.

The Lender shall have the right and power (but shall not be obligated) to assume any construction contract made by or on behalf of the Borrower in any way relating to the Development Work and to take over and use all or any part of the labor, materials, supplies and equipment contracted for, by or on behalf of the Borrower whether or not previously incorporated into the Development Work, in the discretion of the Lender.

The Borrower shall be liable to the Lender for sums paid or incurred for completing construction of the Development Work whether the same shall be paid or incurred pursuant to the provisions of this Section or otherwise, and all payments made or 53 liabilities incurred by the Lender hereunder of any kind whatsoever shall be paid by the Borrower to the Lender upon demand with interest at the rate set forth in the Note, and all of the foregoing shall be deemed and shall constitute disbursements under this Loan Agreement and be secured by the Project Documents. For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted by this subsection (2)(D), the Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to enter into such contracts, perform such acts and incur such liabilities as are referred to in said Section in the name and on behalf of the Borrower. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest. (E) If such event involves defective or unworkmanlike labor or materials are being used in the Development Work, encroachment(s) to which there has been no consent, or violation(s) of Laws and Regulations affecting the condition of title to the Project, the Lender shall have the right to immediately order stoppage of the construction and demand that such conditions be corrected and discontinue funding the proceeds of the Loan until such matters are corrected to the Lender's reasonable satisfaction. After issuance of such an order in writing, no further work shall be done on that portion of the Development Work where there is defective or unworkmanlike labor or materials, which encroaches without consent, or which violates Laws and Regulations or matters affecting title to the Project, without the prior written consent of the Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless and until said condition has been fully corrected. (F) Foreclose on any security for the Loan without waiving its rights to proceed against any other security or other entities or individuals directly or indirectly responsible for repayment of the Loan, or waive any and all security for the Loan as the Lender may in its discretion so determine, and pursue any such other remedy or remedies as the Lender may so determine to be in its best interest. (G) If the Lender spends its funds in exercising or enforcing any of its rights or remedies under the Project Documents, the amount of funds spent shall be payable to the Lender upon demand, together with interest at the rate applicable to the principal balance of the Note, from the date such funds were spent until repaid. Such amounts shall be deemed secured by the Deed of Trust and other applicable Project Documents. Whether or not the Lender elects to employ any or all of the remedies available to it in connection with an Event of Default, the Lender shall not be liable for (i) the Borrower's or the Project Owner's construction of or failure to construct, complete or protect the Development Work, (ii) the payment of any expense incurred by the Lender for the construction or completion of the Development Work undertaken by the Borrower or the Project Owner, or (iii) the performance or non-performance of any other obligation of the Borrower. All remedies of the Lender provided for herein and in any other Loan Documents are cumulative and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by law or in equity. 54 The exercise of any right or remedy by the Lender hereunder shall not in any way constitute a cure or waiver of default hereunder or under any other Loan Document or invalidate any act done pursuant to any notice of default, or prejudice the Lender in the exercise of any of its rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document. If the Lender exercises any of the rights or remedies provided in this Article VIII, that exercise shall not make the Lender, or cause the Lender to be deemed to be, a partner or joint venturer of the Borrower. No disbursement of Loan funds by the Lender shall cure any default of the Borrower, unless the Lender agrees otherwise in writing in each instance. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all of the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents may become immediately due and payable without notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or other notices or demands of any kind or character, at the Lender's option, exercisable in its sole discretion. If such acceleration occurs, the Lender may apply the undisbursed Loan funds to the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents, in any order and proportions that the Lender in its sole discretion may choose. Section 8.3 Authorization to Apply Assets to Payment of Loan Each of the entities comprising the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice or demand, to apply any property, balances, credits, accounts or moneys of the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower then in the possession of the Lender, or standing to the credit of the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower, to the payment of the Loan. 55 ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS Section 9.1 Successors and Assigns; No Assignment by the Borrower The provisions of this Loan Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Lender.
