Existing Lender agrees that the provisions of the form of Assignment and Assumption (including Annex 1) attached as Exhibit G to the Loan Agreement shall apply to it as assignor of such “Commitment.” Each party hereto agrees to execute an Assignment and Assumption or related ancillary documentation to give effect to the foregoing if requested by the Administrative Agent.
(b) Upon the Effective Date, the Loan and participations in the Lakeway Letter of Credit of the Existing Lender outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be, and hereby are, restructured, rearranged, renewed, extended and continued as provided in this Amendment and shall continue as the Loan and participations in the Lakeway Letter of Credit of the Existing Lender and New Lender under the Original Loan Agreement, as amended by the Modification Papers (as so amended, the “Loan Agreement”).

(i) it has received a copy of the Original Loan Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements of the Borrower delivered pursuant thereto;

Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower and the other Loan Parties under the Loan Agreement;
(iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon any Lender or any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties.
(d) New Lender acknowledges as follows:
(i) no Lender or Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Lender or any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession;
(ii) except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Original Loan Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person; and
(iii) on the Effective Date, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to effectiveness set forth in Section 2 of this Amendment, it shall be deemed automatically to have become a party to the Loan Agreement and have all rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each as amended by the Modification Papers, as if it were an original Lender signatory thereto.
(e) On the Effective Date, New Lender agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in the Original Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each as amended by the Modification Papers, applicable to the Lenders as if it were an original Lender signatory thereto (and expressly makes the appointment set forth in, and agrees to the obligations imposed under, Section 15 of the Original Loan Agreement).
7. Certain Representations. Borrower represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date: (a) Borrower has full power and authority to execute the Modification Papers and the Modification Papers constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity and applicable Debtor Relief Laws; and (b) no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower thereof; and (c) with respect to the HEB Lease, such lease is currently in force and effect, neither the landlord nor the tenant is in default thereunder, and each of the contingencies set forth in Section 2(f)(3) thereof has been satisfied such that the tenant no longer has any right to terminate such lease pursuant to such section; and (d) each of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1 through 6.22 of the
FIRST AMENDMENT TO CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT – Page 4
Original Loan Agreement has been satisfied; and (e) no Event of Default exists and, to Borrower's knowledge, there exist no facts or circumstances which, with the giving of notice and the passage of time, would reasonably be expected to constitute an Event of Default. In addition, Borrower represents that after giving effect to this Amendment all representations and warranties contained in Section 11 of the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date as if made on and as of such date except: (i) to the extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 11.2 of the Original Loan Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 9.1 of the Original Loan Agreement.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that its liabilities and obligations under the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and under the other Loan Documents, are not impaired in any respect by this Amendment. Any breach of any representations, warranties and covenants under this Amendment shall be an Event of Default under the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby.
10. Limitation on Agreements. The modifications set forth herein are limited precisely as written and, except as expressly set forth herein, shall not be deemed (a) to be a consent under or a waiver of or an amendment to any other term or condition in, or constitute any course of dealing under, the Original Loan Agreement or any of other the Loan Documents, or (b) to prejudice any right or rights which Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may have in the future under or in connection with the Original Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each as amended hereby, or any of the other documents referred to herein or therein. The Modification Papers shall constitute Loan Documents for all purposes.
11. Confirmation of Security. Borrower hereby confirms and agrees that all of the collateral documents (the Deed of Trust and the Guaranty Agreement) which presently secure the Obligations shall continue to secure, in the same manner and to the same extent provided therein, the payment and performance of the Obligations as described in the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby.
