WAREHOUSING CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

WAREHOUSING CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of May 31, 2006 among MMA CONSTRUCTION FINANCE, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, as borrower (the “Borrower”) and WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK, as lender (“Lender”).

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

1.1. The Warehousing Commitment

On the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement, including Exhibit H, Lender agrees to make Warehousing Advances to Borrower from the Closing Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the Warehousing Commitment Termination Date, during which period Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Lender has no obligation to make Warehousing Advances in excess of the Warehousing Commitment Amount. While a Default or Event of Default exists, Lender may refuse to make any additional Warehousing Advances to Borrower. All Warehousing Advances under this Agreement constitute a single indebtedness, and all of the Collateral is security for the Warehousing Note and for the performance of all of the Obligations.

1.2. Expiration of Warehousing Commitment

1.3. Warehousing Note

Warehousing Advances are evidenced by Borrower’s promissory note, payable to Lender on the form prescribed by Lender (“Warehousing Note”). The term “Warehousing Note” as used in this Agreement includes all amendments, restatements, renewals or replacements of the original Warehousing Note and all substitutions for it. All terms and provisions of the Warehousing Note are incorporated into this Agreement.

2.1. Warehousing Advances

To obtain a Warehousing Advance under this Agreement, Borrower must deliver not later than (a) 7 Business Days before the Business Day on which Borrower desires the Warehousing Advance against a Bridge Mortgage Loan, an Approval Request and Underwriting Documents and (b) 12:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the Business Day on which Borrower desires the Warehousing Advance against a Bridge Mortgage Loan which has been previously approved by the Lender for inclusion in Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.1, a Warehousing Advance Request (“Warehousing Advance Request"). Within 5 Business Days after receipt of an Approval Request and Underwriting Documents for a Bridge Mortgage Loan, Lender may, in its sole discretion, accept or reject that Approval Request, and will notify Borrower of its decision. Subject to the delivery and approval of a Warehousing Advance Request, the delivery of the Underwriting Documents and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, Borrower may obtain a Warehousing Advance under this Agreement upon compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section and in the applicable Exhibit B, including delivery to Lender of all required Collateral Documents. Lender’s current form of Warehousing Advance Request is set forth in the applicable Exhibit A. Upon not less than 3 Business Days’ prior Notice to Borrower, Lender may modify its form of Approval Request and Warehousing Advance Request to conform to current legal requirements or Lender practices and, as so modified, those documents will become part of this Agreement.

3.1. Interest

3.2. Interest Limitation

Lender does not intend, by reason of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note or any other Loan Document, to receive interest in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law. If Lender receives any interest in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note or otherwise, Lender will apply the excess to the unpaid principal balance of the Warehousing Advances and not to the payment of interest. If all Warehousing Advances have been paid in full and the Warehousing Commitment has expired or has been terminated, Lender will remit any excess to Borrower. This Section controls every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and Lender and is binding upon and available to any subsequent holder of the Warehousing Note.

3.3. Principal Payments

3.4. Warehousing Fees

3.5. Miscellaneous Fees and Charges

Borrower must reimburse Lender for all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges actually incurred and which are separately itemized in writing by Lender. Borrower must pay to the Lender all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges in accordance with Section 3.1(b) above..

3.6. Overdraft Advances

If Lender debits Borrower’s Operating Account or honors an item presented against the Operating Account and that debit or honor results in an overdraft, Lender may make an additional Warehousing Advance to fund that overdraft (“Overdraft Advance”). Borrower must pay (a) the outstanding amount of any Overdraft Advance, within 1 Business Day after the date of the Overdraft Advance, and (b) interest on the amount of the Overdraft Advance, at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2%, within 9 days after the date of Lender’s invoice.

3.7. Method of Making Payments

3.8. Buydowns.

Borrower may prepay a portion of the Warehousing Advances in an amount equal to $250,000 or an integral multiple $100,000 in excess thereof pursuant to this Section 3.8 (any such prepayments hereafter referred to as a “Buydown”). A Buydown shall be deemed a prepayment of Warehousing Advances as agreed between Borrower and Lender, but shall not entitle Borrower to the release of any Collateral. Borrower shall provide Lender with advance notice of any Buydown not later than 11:00 a.m. (Central Time) on the date of such Buydown. All or any portion of a Buydown may be reborrowed (“Buyup”) in an amount equal to $250,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, upon written notice to Lender no later than 10:30 a.m. (Central Time) on any Business Day, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and all other conditions precedent have been satisfied or waived. Lender shall withdraw each Buydown from Borrower’s Operating Account by 12:00 noon (Central Time) on the day thereof. Each request for a Buydown or Buyup will be on the corporate letterhead of Borrower and no more than 2 Buydowns/Buyups will occur in any one week period. In the event Lender receives a payment of Warehousing Advances which would, as a result of the Buydown, reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Warehousing Advances to an amount less than zero, a portion of the Buydown sufficient to eliminate such shortfall equal to $250,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, will be readvanced to Borrower. Lender may apply the Buydown to reduce the interest on Warehousing Advances in such order as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

4.1. Grant of Security Interest

As security for the payment of the Warehousing Note and for the performance of all of Borrower’s Obligations, Borrower grants a security interest to Lender in all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the following described property (“Collateral”):

4.2. Maintenance of Collateral Records

As long as the Warehousing Commitment is outstanding or there remain any Obligations to be paid or performed under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, Borrower must preserve and maintain, at its chief executive office and principal place of business or in a regional office approved by Lender, or in the office of a computer service bureau engaged by Borrower and approved by Lender and, upon Lender’s reasonable request, make available to Lender the originals, or copies in any case where the originals have been delivered to Lender or to an Investor, of any Mortgage Notes, Mortgages and Security Agreements included in Pledged Loans and all other agreements or documents evidencing, securing or backing Pledged Assets, Purchase Commitments, and all related Mortgage Loan documents and instruments, and all files, surveys, certificates, correspondence, appraisals, computer programs, tapes, discs, cards, accounting records and other information and data relating to the Collateral.

4.3. Release of Security Interest in Pledged Loans

4.4. Collection and Servicing Rights

4.5. Return of Collateral at End of Warehousing Commitment

If (a) the Warehousing Commitment has expired or been terminated, and (b) no Warehousing Advances, interest or other Obligations are outstanding and unpaid, Lender will, after notice from the Borrower, promptly release its security interest and will promptly deliver all Collateral in its possession to Borrower at Borrower’s expense. Borrower’s acknowledgement or receipt for any Collateral released or delivered to Borrower under any provision of this Agreement is a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so returned, and Lender is discharged from any liability or responsibility for that Collateral.

4.6. Delivery of Collateral Documents

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower shall remain liable under each item of the Collateral to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms thereof and any other agreement giving rise thereto, and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions thereof. Whether or not Lender has exercised any rights in any of the Collateral, Lender shall have no obligation or liability under any of the Collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by Lender of any payment relating thereto, nor shall Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligation of Borrower under or pursuant to any of the Collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto) to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any of the collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

Borrower authorizes Lender to file financing statements to perfect and continue Lender’s security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will execute and cooperate with Lender in obtaining from third parties control agreements in form satisfactory to Lender with respect to collateral consisting of investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights, and electronic chattel paper.

5.3. Force Majeure

Notwithstanding Borrower’s satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Lender has no obligation to make a Warehousing Advance if Lender is prevented from obtaining the funds necessary to make a Warehousing Advance, or is otherwise prevented from making a Warehousing Advance as a result of any fire or other casualty, failure of power, strike, lockout or other labor trouble, banking moratorium, embargo, sabotage, confiscation, condemnation, riot, civil disturbance, insurrection, act of terrorism, war or other activity of armed forces, act of God or other similar reason beyond the control of Lender.
