BOKF, NA dba Bank of Albuquerque (the “Lender”); and AMREP Southwest Inc., a New Mexico corporation (the “Borrower”), agree:

1.             Recitals. The following Recitals apply to this Seventh Modification Agreement (this “Agreement”).

A.          Borrower is indebted to Lender as evidenced by a Revolving Line of Credit Promissory Note dated February 3, 2021, in the original principal amount of Four Million and No/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00), made by Borrower in favor of the Lender (the “Original Note”).

B.           Payment and performance of the Original Note are secured by, among other things, a Line of Credit Mortgage, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated February 3, 2021, and recorded in the real property records of Sandoval County, New Mexico (the “Recording Office”) on February 3, 2021, as Document No. 2021003917, made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Mortgage”). The Mortgage, the Loan Agreement and all other documents evidencing, guaranteeing or securing the Original Note, as modified by the Modification Agreements (as defined below), are referred to in this Agreement as the “Loan Documents”.

C.           At the request of Borrower, Lender issued a reserve letter in favor of the City of Santa Fe, New Mexico, as evidenced by a Demand Promissory Note in the original principal amount of One Million Three Hundred Twenty-Two Thousand Seven Hundred Sixteen and 82/100 Dollars ($1,322,716.82), dated January 25, 2022, made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Demand Note”). The Demand Note is secured by the Mortgage. In connection with the Demand Note, Borrower and Lender entered into a First Modification Agreement dated January 25, 2022 (the “First Modification”).

D.           At the request of Borrower, Lender removed the semi-annual resting requirement in the Original Note, as evidenced by a Second Modification Agreement dated April 13, 2022 (the “Second Modification”).

In connection with the Second Restated Demand Note, Borrower and Lender entered into a Fifth Modification Agreement dated February 4, 2024 (the “Fifth Modification”).

H.           At the request of Borrower, pursuant to a Sixth Modification Agreement dated effective August 16, 2024 executed by Borrower and Lender (the “Sixth Modification” and, together with the First Modification, the Second Modification, the Third Modification, the Fourth Modification, the Fifth Modification and this Agreement, the “Modification Agreements”), Lender issued two (2) reserve letters in favor of the City of Albuquerque, New Mexico, evidenced as follows: (i) by a Third Demand Promissory Note dated August 16, 2024 in the original principal amount of One Million Seven Hundred Four Thousand Three Hundred Seventy-Four and 28/100 Dollars ($1,704,374.28), made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Third Demand Note”), which Third Demand Note is secured by the Mortgage; and (ii) by a Fourth Demand Promissory Note dated August 16, 2024 in the original principal amount of One Hundred Seven Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Three and 07/100 Dollars ($107,483.07), made by Borrower in favor of Lender (the “Fourth Demand Note”), which Fourth Demand Note is secured by the Mortgage.

I.             Borrower has requested that Lender increase the amount of principal available to be borrowed by Borrower under, and extend the maturity date set forth in, the First Restated Note and Lender is willing to do so on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

2.             Note. This Note evidences a revolving line of credit, which can be advanced, repaid and re-advanced from time to time; provided, however, that Maker shall not be entitled to advances under the Loan if Maker's total Liquidity is less than $3,000,000.00. As used in this Note "Liquidity" means the sum of: (a) Maker's and Maker's subsidiaries' unencumbered cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities; and (b) Maker's and Maker's subsidiaries' unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, all as determined on a current value basis. Each request for an advance of the Loan shall be accompanied by evidence acceptable to Lender that Maker's total Liquidity exceeds $3,000,000.00. The total of all the advances of principal, including all Demand Notes issued hereunder, made during the term of this Note may exceed $6,500,000.00; provided, however, the outstanding principal balance of this Note, including the aggregate principal amount of all Demand Notes issued hereunder, shall not exceed $6,500,000.00 at any time. Further, there will be times when no amounts are outstanding under this Note, but this shall not impair or in any way affect either the validity or enforceability of this Note.

 

3.             Payments. Maker shall make payments of interest only at the Interest Rate due under this Note on a monthly basis, beginning on September 15, 2025, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter, through and including the Maturity Date. If not sooner paid, the unpaid principal balance of this Note and all unpaid, accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

 

4.             Computation of Interest and Related Fees. Interest due under this Note shall be calculated on the unpaid principal to the date of each installment paid, and each payment of principal and/or interest made hereunder shall be credited first to the discharge of interest, and the balance shall be credited to the unpaid principal sum. All payments of interest shall be computed on the per annum basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days and for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day, but excluding the last if payment is received by the holder of this Note by 1:00 p.m. mountain daylight time or mountain standard time, whichever is applicable).

 

5.             Default Interest. Subject to the notice and cure provisions contained in the Mortgage, while any Event of Default exists in the making of any of the payments herein provided to be made, or in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Loan Agreement, this Note, the Mortgage or of any instrument now or hereafter securing payment of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, at the option of the holder of this Note, in its sole discretion, the entire unpaid principal balance hereof shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the applicable Interest Rate, adjusted as of the date of any change therein, plus five percent (5%) per annum (the "Default Rate"). During the existence of any such Event of Default, the holder of this Note may apply payments received on any amounts due hereunder, or under the terms of any instrument now or hereafter evidencing or amounts due hereunder, or under the terms of any instrument now or hereafter evidencing or securing such indebtedness, as the holder may determine, and if the holder of this Note so elects, notice of election being expressly waived, the principal hereof remaining unpaid, together with accrued interest, shall at once become due and payable. Any and all additional interest that has accrued at the rate provided in this paragraph shall be due and payable at the time of, and as a condition precedent to, the curing of any Event of Default.

6.             Late Fees. Subject to the notice and cure provisions contained in the Mortgage, to the extent any principal and interest due under this Note is not paid within fifteen (15) calendar days of the due date therefore, and, to the extent that the following described fee is deemed to constitute interest, subject to Paragraph 8 of this Note, in addition to any interest or other fees and charges due hereunder or under this Note, Maker shall pay a late fee equal to the lesser of: (a) five percent (5%) of the amount of the payment that was to have been made; or (b) $700.00. Maker agrees that the charges set forth herein are reasonable compensation to Lender for the acceptance and handling of such late payments.

 

7.             Currency. All sums called for, payable, or to be paid hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America, which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts therein. Additionally, Maker shall have the right to make payments by wire transfer or ACH directly to Lender. Within ten (10) days after written request by Maker, Lender shall provide wiring and ACH instructions to Maker for all payments due pursuant to the Loan.

 

8.             Interest Savings Clause. All agreements between Maker and the holder of this Note are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of disbursement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount of interest or loan finance charge contracted for, charged or received by the holder of this Note exceed the highest lawful contractual rate of interest or the maximum finance charge permissible under applicable federal or state law which a court of competent jurisdiction, by final non-appealable order, determines to be applicable hereto. It is the intention of Maker and the holder of this Note to conform strictly to applicable usury laws from time to time in force, and all agreements between Maker and the holder of this Note, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of the maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the holder of this Note, or collected by the holder of this Note, for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned hereunder or otherwise, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or in the Mortgage or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the indebtedness evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury laws. If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provisions hereof or of the Mortgage or any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the indebtedness evidenced hereby, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed or permitted by law, including judicial determination, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if under any circumstances the holder of this Note hereby shall ever receive an amount deemed interest by applicable law which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest under applicable usury laws shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing hereunder or to other indebtedness secured by the Mortgage and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal and other indebtedness, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Maker or to any other person entitled thereto. All sums contracted for, charged or received by the holder of this Note for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness of Maker evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of this Note until payment in full of such indebtedness so that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Paragraph shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between the holder of this Note and Maker and any endorser or guarantor of this Note.

Further, upon the occurrence or existence of any such Event of Default, the holder of this Note shall be entitled to exercise any or all remedies provided or referenced in this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and any other rights and remedies under state or federal law. Failure to exercise any such rights and remedies upon any Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of any rights in the event of any subsequent Event of Default. If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or if collected through the probate court, bankruptcy court, or by any other legal or judicial proceedings, Maker agrees and is obligated to pay, in addition to the sums referred to above, the reasonable attorneys' fees of the holder of this Note, together with all court costs and other reasonable expenses paid by such holder.
