-4-




records. Lender is under no duty to visit or observe the Property, or to examine any books or records.

Any insurance required by this Loan Agreement shall be written by a company or companies lawfully authorized to do business in the State of Hawaii. All insurance policies and renewals thereof shall be in form acceptable to Lender and shall be specifically endorsed to name Lender as an additional insured, provide not less than thirty (30) days written notice to Lender of cancellation of the policy or policies, and contain a standard mortgagee clause and a standard lender’s loss payable clause. If Borrower shall procure any other insurance covering the improvements on the premises, any such policy or policies shall likewise be specifically endorsed to name Lender as an additional insured, provide not less than thirty (30) days written notice to Lender of cancellation of the policy or policies, and contain a standard mortgagee clause and a standard lender’s loss payable clause, and will be claimable by Lender for application in accordance with this paragraph, and, whether or not so made payable, may be recovered by Lender by any appropriate proceeding and be similarly applied.
Borrower, at least annually, will provide Lender with satisfactory written proof that Borrower is maintaining all required insurance. All premiums on insurance policies shall be paid by Borrower, when due, directly to the insurance carrier, unless otherwise directed by Lender. Lender shall have the right to hold the policies and renewals thereof. If Borrower fails to carry any required insurance, or fails to provide Lender with satisfactory written proof that all required insurance is being maintained, then Lender, at its option but without being obligated to do so, may procure such insurance from year to year and pay the premiums therefor, and Borrower will reimburse Lender on demand for premiums so paid, with interest thereon from the date Lender pays such premiums at the default interest rate set forth in the Note, and all such sums shall be secured by this Mortgage.
In the event of loss, Borrower shall give notice promptly to the insurance carrier and Lender. Lender may make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.
If the Property is damaged or destroyed, then the proceeds of the insurance insuring against such damage or destruction will be applied, at Lender’s option, to repair, restore or rebuild the Property according to the original plans and elevations therefor, or according to such modified plans conforming to laws and ordinances then in effect as shall be approved by Borrower and Lender in writing, or to reduce the amount Borrower owes to Lender under the Note and under the Mortgage. Any such proceeds not used to repair, restore or rebuild the Property shall be applied to the sums secured by the Mortgage. If the insurance proceeds are to be applied to the sums secured by the Mortgage, then the excess proceeds, if any, shall be paid to Borrower. If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if Borrower fails to respond to Lender within thirty (30) days from the date notice is mailed by Lender to Borrower that the insurance carrier offers to settle a claim for insurance benefits, Lender is authorized to collect and apply the insurance proceeds to restoration or repair of the Property.
Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, any such application of proceeds to principal shall not excuse or postpone the due date of any installment called for under the Note or change the amount of any such installments. If Lender acquires the Property pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to any insurance policies and in and to the proceeds thereof resulting from damage to the Property prior to the sale

-6-




or acquisition shall pass to Lender to the extent of the sums secured by the Mortgage immediately prior to such sale or acquisition.

2.9.    Maintenance and Repair. Borrower shall (i) maintain the Property, including the parking and landscaping portions thereof, in good condition and repair, (ii) promptly make, or cause tenants to make all necessary structural and non-structural repairs to the Property, and (iii) not demolish, alter, remove or add to any Improvements, excepting the installation or construction of tenant improvements in connection with any leases approved in accordance with this Agreement. Borrower shall pay when due all claims for labor performed and materials furnished therefor in connection with any improvements or construction activities.
2.10.    Payment of Expenses. Borrower must pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the making, disbursement and administration of the Loan, including any releases or partial releases of a House Lot or a Finished Lot from the lien of the Mortgage, as well as any revisions, extensions, renewals or “workouts” of the Loan, and in the exercise of any of Lender’s rights or remedies under this Agreement. Such costs and expenses include title insurance, recording and escrow charges, fees for appraisal, environmental services, legal fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel and any other reasonable fees and costs for services, regardless of whether such services are furnished by Lender’s employees or by independent contractors. Borrower acknowledges that the loan fee does not include amounts payable by Borrower under this section. All such sums incurred by Lender and not immediately reimbursed by Borrower are considered additional loans to Borrower secured by the Mortgage and bearing interest at the default rate provided in the Note.
2.11.    Affirmative Covenants. For as long as the Loan is outstanding, Borrower will, unless otherwise permitted by Lender in writing, do the following:

h.    Maintain Barnwell’s financial condition at all times satisfactory to Lender, and maintain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Loan of not less than 1.20 to one.
“Debt Service Coverage Ratio” means Adjusted EBITDA of Barnwell for the twelve (12) months preceding the date of calculation divided by Total Debt Obligations for the same period of time on a rolling four (4) quarters basis. “Adjusted EBIDTA” means earnings before interest, taxes and non-cash expenses, plus (a) cash contributions from minority shareholders, minus (b) 50% of non-financed oil and gas capital expenditures, (b) 100% of other unfinanced capital expenditures (except that for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011, 50% of other unfinanced capital expenditures shall be used), (c) cash dividends and cash distributions, (d) retirement plan contributions, and (e) stock repurchases. “Total Debt Obligations” is the total amount of the required principal and interest payments payable to Lender and other parties that are unrelated to Barnwell over the twelve-month period preceding the date of calculation.
Borrower shall provide evidence of the maintenance of this Debt Service Coverage Ratio in form and content satisfactory to Lender annually and also at other times upon request by Lender.
i.    Maintain a loan to value ratio for the Loan in accordance with the following:
(1)    On the one hundred twentieth (120th) day after the closing of the loan, the then-outstanding principal amount of the loan shall not exceed the aggregate of seventy-five percent (75%) of the appraised as-is market value of the House Lots and sixty-five percent (65%) of the appraised as-is market value of the Finished Lots.
(2)    On the two hundred tenth (210th) day after the closing of the loan, the then-outstanding principal amount of the loan shall not exceed the aggregate of seventy percent (70%) of the appraised as-is market value of the House Lots and sixty-five percent (65%) of the appraised as-is market value of the Finished Lots.

-8-




If the loan to value ratio exceeds such ratio, Borrower shall immediately, upon demand, pay a sum sufficient to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loan so that the loan to value ratio shall be less than such ratio.
j.    Maintain a Total Liabilities to Consolidated Tangible Net Worth ratio not to exceed 1.85 to one. “Consolidated Tangible Net Worth” means that amount, determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, that is equal to the Barnwell’s Total Assets less intangible assets, minus Total Liabilities, plus the principal amount of subordinated debt outstanding. “Total Assets” means all assets of the Barnwell, on a consolidated basis, that should, in accordance with GAAP, be classified as assets on the Barnwell’s financial statements. “Total Liabilities” means all liabilities of the Barnwell, on a consolidated basis, that should, in accordance with GAAP, be classified as liabilities on the Barnwell’s financial statements.
2.12.    Negative Covenants. As long as the Loan is outstanding, Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior written consent, do any of the following:

2.13.    Notices. Borrower must promptly notify Lender in writing of:
a.    Any litigation affecting Borrower, any co-maker, any guarantor, or the Property, and, if Borrower, any co-maker or any guarantor is other than a natural person or trust, any general partner or controlling shareholder or managing member of Borrower, such co-maker or such guarantor where the amount claimed is $50,000.00 or more; or
b.    Any notice that the Property or Borrower’s, any co-maker’s or any guarantor’s business fails in any respect to comply with any applicable law, regulation or court order; or
c.    Any material adverse change in the physical condition of the Property or Borrower’s, any co-maker’s or any guarantor’s financial condition or operations or other circumstance that adversely affects Borrower’s intended use of the Property or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan.

2.14.    Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend with counsel acceptable to Lender, and hold Lender harmless from and against all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs and expenses (including all legal fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel) arising out of or resulting from the ownership, operation, use or sale of the Property, whether such claims are based on theories of derivative liability, comparative negligence or otherwise.

2.17.    Income from Property. Borrower must first apply all income derived from the Property, including all income from leases, to pay costs and expenses associated with the ownership, maintenance, operation and leasing of the Property, including all amounts then required to be paid under the Loan Documents, before using or applying such income for any other purpose. No such income is to be distributed or paid to any shareholder, partner, or member of Borrower, or, if Borrower is a trust, to any beneficiary, settlor or trustee, unless all such costs and expenses which are then due have been paid in full.
2.18.    Maintenance of Depository Relationship. Borrower shall, at all times while any portion of the Note remains unpaid, maintain a depository relationship with Lender, unless the same is contrary to state or federal law or regulations.
3.    Hazardous Substances.

Unless specifically addressed in the Loan Documents, at any time Lender may set off obligations owed by Lender to Borrower (such as balances in checking and savings accounts) against the amounts due under the Loan, whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred or shall have been declared, and without first resorting to other collateral securing payment of the Loan.
5.4.    Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. No provision of this Article 5 limits the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal property collateral or security, or obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of either party to resort to arbitration or reference. At Lender’s option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure.
6.    Miscellaneous Provisions.

-14-




6.1.    No Waiver; Consents. No alleged waiver by Lender is effective unless in writing, and no waiver may be construed as a continuing waiver. No waiver is implied from any delay or failure by Lender to take action on account of any default of Borrower. Consent by Lender to any act or omission by Borrower may not be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission.
6.2.    No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of Lender and Borrower and their successors and assigns. No trust fund is created by this Agreement and no other persons or entities have any right of action under this Agreement or any right to the Loan funds.

6.4.    Attorneys’ Fees. If any lawsuit, reference or arbitration is commenced which arises out of, or which relates to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Loan, including any alleged tort action, regardless of which party commences the action, the prevailing party is entitled to recover from each other party such sums as the court, referee or arbitrator may adjudge to be reasonable attorneys’ fees in the action or proceeding, in addition to costs and expenses otherwise allowed by law. Any such attorneys’ fees incurred by either party in enforcing a judgment in its favor under this Agreement are recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment, and such attorneys’ fees obligations are intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into any such judgment. In all other situations, including any bankruptcy or other voluntary or involuntary proceeding, in or out of court, for the adjustment of debtor-creditor relationships, Borrower agrees to pay all of Lender’s costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, which may be incurred in any effort to collect or enforce the Loan or any part of it or any

-15-




term of any Loan Document. Attorneys’ fees include the allocated costs for services of in-house counsel.
6.5.    Loan Not Assumable. It is expressly understood by Borrower that the Loan is personal to Borrower and may not be assumed by any other person or entity.
6.6.    Assignment of Loan. Lender may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and further may assign, or sell participations in, all or any part of the Loan, the Loan Documents, or any other interest herein or in the Note to any person or entity, all without notice to or the consent of Borrower or any co-makers or guarantors. To the extent of any such assignment, Lender shall be relieved of its obligations with respect to the Loan and the assignee shall have the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were Lender hereunder and a holder of the Note. Without the consent of or notice to Borrower, Lender may furnish any information (including, without limitation, financial information) concerning the Loan, the Property, or Borrower, any co-makers or guarantors, and any of their assets to third parties from time to time for legitimate business purposes.
6.7.    Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Agreement shall bind and benefit the heirs, personal representatives, successors, successors in trust and assigns of the parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld by Lender in its sole discretion for any reason or no reason.
6.8.    Interpretation. The language of this Agreement must be construed as a whole according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any party. The word “include(s)” means “include(s), without limitation,” and the word “including” means “including, but not limited to.”
6.9.    Miscellaneous. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by the parties. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more provisions of this Agreement in no way affects any other provision. If Borrower consists of more than one person or entity, each is jointly and severally liable to Lender for the faithful performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of and decisions of the State of Hawaii and the United States of America and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including without limitation the federal laws, rules and regulations for federal savings and loan associations and federal savings banks. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which is, for all purposes deemed an original and all such counterparts taken together, constitute one and the same instrument.
6.10.    Integration and Relation to Loan Commitment. The Loan Documents fully state all of the terms and conditions of the parties’ agreement regarding the matters mentioned in or incidental to this Agreement. The Loan Documents supersede all oral negotiations and prior writings concerning the subject matter of the Loan Documents.

-16-




6.11.    Actions. Lender has the right, but not the obligation, to commence, appear in, and defend any action or proceeding which might affect its security or its rights, duties or liabilities relating to the Loan, the Property, or any of the Loan Documents. Borrower must pay promptly on demand all of Lender’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and legal fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel incurred in those actions or proceedings.
6.12.    Relationships with Other Lender Customers. From time to time, Lender may have business relationships with Borrower’s customers, suppliers, contractors, tenants, partners, shareholders, officers or directors, with businesses offering products or services similar to those of Borrower, or with persons seeking to invest in, borrow from or lend to Borrower. Borrower agrees that in no event is Lender obligated to disclose to Borrower any information concerning any other Lender customer. Borrower further agrees that Lender may extend credit to those parties and may take any action it may deem necessary to collect any such credit, regardless of any effect the extension or collection of such credit may have on Borrower’s financial condition or operations.
6.13.    Loan Commission. Lender is not obligated to pay any brokerage commission or fee in connection with or arising out of the Loan. Borrower must pay any and all brokerage commissions or fees arising out of or in connection with the Loan and Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender against any claim for any such fees or commissions.
6.14.    Standard of Conduct. Nothing contained in this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall limit the right of Lender to exercise its business judgment or to act, in the context of the granting or withholding of any consent required under the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or otherwise, in a subjective manner, whether or not “objectively” reasonable under the circumstances, as long as Lender’s exercise of its business judgment or action, as the case may be, is made or undertaken in good faith. Borrower and Lender intend by the foregoing to set forth and affirm their entire understanding with respect to the standard pursuant to which Lender’s duties and obligations are to be judged and the parameters within which Lender’s discretion may be exercised hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. As used herein, the term “good faith” means honesty in fact in the conduct and transaction concerned.
6.15.    Counterparts. This document may be executed in counterparts. Each counterpart shall be executed by one or more of the parties to this document and the several counterparts shall constitute one document to the same effect as though the signature of all the parties were upon the same document.
6.16.    Jury Waiver. Lender and Borrower hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding, claim, or counterclaim, whether in contract or tort, at law or in equity, arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.

3.    UCC Financing Statements recorded on March 30, 2011 in said Bureau as Document Nos. 2011-051536 and 2011-051537.
C. The payment and performance of the Loan is guaranteed on a limited basis by Terry Johnston, an individual (the “Guarantor”), pursuant to that certain Limited Guaranty dated March 28, 2011 (the “Guaranty”).
D. The Lender is the present holder of the Loan Agreement, Note and the Collateral Documents (collectively, the “Loan Documents”).
E. The Borrower has requested, and the Lender has agreed to modify and amend the terms of the Loan Documents in the manner hereinafter set forth.
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Recitals set forth above, which are incorporated herein by reference, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Lender and Borrower agree as follows:
1.    Monthly Payments; Amortization Schedule. Beginning with the payment due on October 1, 2012, the amount of Borrower’s monthly principal and interest payment shall be

1




decreased to $58,280.00, such amount based on a 10-year amortization schedule (increased from the initial 7-year amortization schedule) which commenced on the closing date of the Loan.
2.    Balloon Payment. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that because the amortization period is now longer than the term of the Note, the monthly principal and interest payments are lower than the amount needed to pay the Loan in full by the Maturity Date. Accordingly, on the Maturity Date, Borrower may still owe some part of the principal balance due under the Note. A single payment, called a “balloon payment”, equal to the unpaid part of the principal, plus any interest and other charges then due, must be paid by Borrower on the Maturity Date. Lender will have no obligation to refinance the Loan at that time. Borrower will, therefore, be required to make payment out of other assets that Borrower may own, or Borrower will have to find a lender, which may be Lender or some other lender, willing to lend Borrower the money. If Borrower refinances the Loan at maturity, Borrower may have to pay some or all of the closing costs normally associated with a new loan, even if Borrower obtains refinancing from Lender.
3.    Other Agreements.
a.    Borrower agrees that, as of the Effective Date, the total unpaid principal balance under the Note is $5,163,572.27.
b.    Capitalized terms used, but not defined or otherwise specifically referenced in this Agreement shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.
c.    Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or deemed to affect or jeopardize the Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents, nor to affect or jeopardize the liens or obligations created thereunder.
d.    All references to “Note” and “Loan Agreement” contained in any of the Loan Documents shall hereafter mean the Note and the Loan Agreement, as modified by this Agreement.
e.    Except as specifically amended hereby, all other terms, conditions and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and unchanged.
f.    Borrower and Guarantor agree that there are no offsets or setoffs that may be asserted by the Borrower or Guarantor that may reduce any amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents arising prior to the date of this Agreement; that there are no defenses or counterclaims subsisting thereto; that all of the Loan Documents are valid and enforceable instruments which validly and properly secure the obligations of the Borrower under the Note; and that there is no act, event, or matter, or threatened act, event, or matter, which would prevent Lender or its successors and assigns, from effectively enforcing the Note, and from effectively enforcing or foreclosing on the various collateral securing the obligations of the Borrower under the Note and Loan Agreement. The Borrower and Guarantor further agree that, in consideration of Lender agreeing to modify and amend the Loan Agreement, Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases, acquits and discharges Lender from and against any and all claims, causes of action, demands, damages, liabilities and/or costs of any kind and nature whatsoever that Borrower and/

2




or Guarantor now have, have had at any time in the past, or may have at any time in the future (to the extent such future claims, causes of action, etc. arise out of events occurring on or before the execution of this Agreement), whether known or unknown as of the date hereof, pertaining to or in any way, directly or indirectly, related to the Loan, the Loan Agreement, the Note, any of the other Loan Documents, the Guaranty or this Agreement.
4.    Guarantor’s Consent. Guarantor hereby: (a) consents to the foregoing Agreement; (b) agrees that none of the foregoing shall affect or release the Guarantor from any of his obligations under the Guaranty; and (c) specifically acknowledges and confirms that the Guaranty shall apply to the Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents as modified by this Agreement.
5.    Counterparts. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile signatures, each of which shall be deemed an original, and said counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement, binding all of the parties hereto, notwithstanding all of the parties are not signatory to the original or same counterparts. For all purposes, duplicate unexecuted and unacknowledged pages of the counterparts may be discarded and the remaining pages assembled as one document.
