FOR VALUE RECEIVED, THE RECEIPT AND SUFFICIENCY OF WHICH IS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED BY EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED, EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY AGREES THAT, FRONT YARD RESIDENTIAL CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation (with its successors, the Maker), promises to pay to AMHERST SFRP VI REIT, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (with its successors and registered permitted assigns, the Noteholder), the sum of Twenty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$20,000,000), or such lesser principal amount as may be outstanding on the Maturity Date (as defined below), together with interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance from time to time as provided herein, at a rate per annum as hereinafter set forth. Interest on the principal balance outstanding hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days elapsed, (a) from the Issue Date of this Non-Negotiable Promissory Note (this Note) set forth above (the Issue Date) or (b) if later, the day such principal was advanced, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Termination and Settlement Agreement, dated May 4, 2020 (as amended, restated, modified, waived or supplemented from time to time, the Termination and Settlement Agreement), by and among Maker, BAF Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, BAF Sub, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, and Amherst Single Family Residential Partners VI, LP, a Delaware limited partnership.
All payments of the principal of, and interest on, this Note and all other obligations evidenced hereby shall be made to the Noteholder not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due, by wire transfer to the Noteholders account (details of which are provided by the Noteholder to the Maker) or in such other manner as the Maker and the Noteholder shall mutually agree, in lawful money of the United States of America in same day funds.
1. Accrual and Imposition of Interest. The outstanding principal amount of this Note shall bear interest (computed daily until paid) at the Benchmark Rate (as defined below) from time to time plus five percent (5.00%) per annum, which shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day (as defined below) of each calendar quarter and, in the case of accrued and unpaid interest on any principal amount hereof prepaid or repaid, on the date of such prepayment or repayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while any Event of Default exists and for so long as it continues, upon and following written notice of the same from the Noteholder (or automatically in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 6(e) hereof), the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall bear interest at a rate that is two percent (2.00%) in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable thereon under this Note. All interest shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter.
As used herein:
Benchmark Rate means, with respect to advances of principal under this Note, for any calendar month (a) an interest rate per annum equal to the Published LIBO Rate for such calendar month or (b) if such rate referred to in clause (a) is not available as of the commencement of any calendar month for any reason (the LIBO Termination Date), the Replacement Benchmark Rate for such calendar month; provided that, at any time the rate applicable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall be less than 0.30% per annum, such rate shall be deemed to be 0.30% per annum.
Published LIBO Rate means, with respect to any calendar month, the rate of interest for a one (1) month interest period appearing on the applicable Bloomberg page (or on any successor or substitute page of such service, or any successor to such service as determined by the Maker) as the London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a term comparable to such one (1) month interest period, at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the date which is two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of such calendar month (but if more than one rate is specified on such page, the rate will be an arithmetic average of all such rates).
Replacement Benchmark Rate means an alternate benchmark rate, together with applicable spread or other adjustments (if any) to such benchmark, reasonably determined by the Maker, in consultation with the Noteholder, and notified to the Noteholder in writing by the Maker, which shall represent an alternative benchmark rate, and related adjustments, as applicable, then prevailing for U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities as a replacement for 1-month LIBOR, it being agreed in any event that the Maker and the Noteholder will negotiate promptly and in good faith to establish the Replacement Benchmark Rate, together with related administrative, technical and conforming changes to the provisions of this Note, by mutual agreement, upon the reasonable request of either the Maker or the Noteholder, in advance of any date when the Published LIBO Rate would be unavailable or cease to represent a prevailing benchmark interest rate under U.S. dollar-denominated credit facilities; provided, that on and from the date that the Published LIBO Rate is no longer available until such time as the Maker and Noteholder have agreed an alternate benchmark rate as set forth above, the Replacement Benchmark Rate shall be the sum of the Published LIBO Rate for each of the months in the six (6) month period immediately preceding the LIBO Termination Date, divided by six (6) (as determined in good faith by the Maker).
2. Advances and Payments.
(a) Advances. This Note evidences advances made by the Noteholder to the Maker from time to time in accordance with this Section 2. The aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note at any time shall be the total of all outstanding advances less the amount of all payments of principal made on this Note from time to time by or for the account of the Maker. As of the Issue Date, after giving effect to the advance made on the Issue Date, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note is Zero U.S. Dollars (U.S.$0). The Maker may pay down and reborrow amounts advanced and subsequently repaid under this Note.
(b) Advance Requests. At any time and from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, the Maker may request advances of principal under this Note from the Noteholder in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed Twenty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$20,000,000) (the Commitment Amount). Each such request for an advance of principal under this Note shall be in a minimum principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$500,000). Each request for an advance shall be made by delivering to the Noteholder the Request for Loan Advance in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a Request for Advance and, together with this Note, collectively, the Note Documents) by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least eleven (11) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Noteholder in its sole discretion) in advance. Within eleven (11) Business Days
2
after receipt of the Request for Advance, the Noteholder shall advance such amounts requested to the Maker in such Request for Advance by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the Request for Advance. The Noteholder hereby commits to make the advances to the Maker requested by the Maker in accordance with the terms of, and subject to the conditions contained in, this Section 2; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of the advances at any one time outstanding shall not exceed the Commitment Amount.
(c) Funding Conditions. Before each advance made on or following the date hereof, the following conditions must be satisfied:
(i) (A) no Event of Default (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) no failure by the Maker to pay accrued interest under this Note when due as described in Section 6(b) hereof which failure would, with the passage of time, become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing;
(ii) the representations and warranties of the Maker contained in Section 4 of this Note shall be true and correct in all material respects (in each case without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein), on and as of the date of such advance, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein) as of such earlier date; and
(iii) the Maker shall have delivered a Request for Advance to the Noteholder in accordance with Section 2(b) above.
Each request for an advance shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Maker on the date
of such advance as to the facts specified in Sections 2(c)(i) and (ii) above.
(d) Payments. To the extent not sooner due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of this Note, plus any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on May 4, 2022 (the Maturity Date). If a payment under this Note otherwise would become due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the immediately succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable thereon during such extension. As used herein, Business Day shall mean any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York City are authorized or required by law to remain closed and, in respect of matters related to the Published LIBO Rate, a day on which dealings are carried on in the London interbank eurodollar market. Payments by the Maker on this Note shall be made to the Noteholder by wire transfer to the account of the Noteholder specified in writing by the Noteholder to the Maker from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof.
(e) Voluntary Prepayments; Commitment Reductions. The Maker shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, in its sole discretion, to (i) prepay, without premium or penalty, the obligations outstanding under this Note in whole or in part without notice to the Noteholder and/or (ii) reduce the Commitment Amount under this Note in whole or in part upon prior written notice to the Noteholder, in each case, in a minimum principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$500,000), with the proceeds of any such prepayment contemplated by the foregoing clause (i) to be applied in accordance with Section 2(f) below, it being expressly understood and agreed that (A) any such prepayment contemplated by the foregoing clause (i) shall not reduce the Commitment Amount and (B) any reduction of the Commitment Amount pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) may, at the election of the
3
Maker, be made conditional on the consummation of any transaction specified by the Maker in its notice of such reduction.
(f) Application of Payments. All payments and prepayments made pursuant to the terms of this Note shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: first to the then unpaid interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of this Note; and second to the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
3. General Provisions Regarding Payments. The Maker will pay all amounts due hereunder at the place for payment specified above in lawful money of the United States of America in same day funds. The Maker hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind whatsoever. The Maker shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Note such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of applicable law, and to request and be provided any necessary tax forms and information in connection therewith. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Note as having been paid to the person to whom such amounts otherwise would have been paid.

11. No Guarantees or Third Party Liability. No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal or interest of this Note, or for any premium or other claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect
