DELETION OF ARBITRATION PROVISION
(Not applicable to the Texas Residential Owner Policy)
Arbitration is a common form of alternative dispute resolution. It can be a quicker and cheaper
means to settle a dispute with your Title Insurance Company. However, if you agree to arbitrate,
you give up your right to take the Title Company to court and your rights to discovery of .
evidence may be limited in the arbitration process. In addition, you cannot usually appeal an
arbitrator's award.
Your policy contains an arbitration provision (shown below). It allows you or the Company
to require arbitration if the amount of insurance is $2,000,000 or less. If you want to retain
your right to sue the Company in case of a dispute over a claim, you must request deletion
of the arbitration provision before the policy is issued. You can do this by signing this form
and returning it to the Company at or before the closing of your real estate transaction or
by writing to the Company.
The arbitration provision in the Policy is as follows:
"Either the Company or the Insured may demand that the claim or controversy shall be submitted
to arbitration pursuant to the Title Insurance Arbitration Rules of the American Land Title
Association ( "Rules "). Except as provided in the Rules, there shall be no joinder or
consolidation with claims or controversies of other persons. Arbitrable matters may include, but
are not limited to, any controversy or claim between the Company and the Insured arising out of.
or relating to this policy, any service in connection with its issuance or the breach of a policy
provision, or to any other controversy or claim arising out of the transaction giving rise to this
policy. All arbitrable matters when the Amount of Insurance is $2,000,000 or less shall be
arbitrated at the option of either the Company or the Insured, unless the Insured is an individual
person (as distinguished from an Entity). All arbitrable matters when the Amount of Insurance is
in excess of $2,000,000 shall be arbitrated only when agreed to by both the Company and the
Insured. Arbitration pursuant to this policy and under the Rules shall be binding upon the
parties. Judgment upon the award rendered by the Arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction."
The Insured hereby requests deletion of the arbitration provision.

becomes insolvent or the subject of any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding or if in
Beneficiary's reasonable opinion the financial responsibility of such insurer is or becomes
inadequate, Grantor shall, in each instance promptly upon the request of Beneficiary and at
Grantor's expense, obtain and deliver to Beneficiary a like policy (or, if and to the extent
permitted by Beneficiary, a certificate of insurance) issued by another insurer, which insurer and
policy meet the requirements of this Deed of Trust. All such policies for loss of or damage to the
Mortgaged Property shall contain a standard mortgage clause (without contribution) naming
Beneficiary as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Beneficiary notwithstanding (i) any act,
failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in
any such policy by any named insured; (iitthe occupation or use of the Mortgaged Property for
purposes more hazardous than permitted •by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or
other action by Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust; or (iv) any change in title to or ownership
of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be held for application as
provided in this Deed of Trust. A copy of each initial insurance policy (or a satisfactory
certificate of insurance) shall be delivered to Beneficiary at the time of execution of this Deed of

delivered to Beneficiary, with premiums fully paid, at least ten (10) days before the termination
of the policy it renews or replaces. Grantor shall pay all premiums on policies required
hereunder as they become due and payable and promptly deliver to Beneficiary evidence
satisfactory to Beneficiary of the timely payment thereof. If any lost occurs at any time when
Grantor has failed to perform Grantor's covenants and agreements in this section, Beneficiary
shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for
Grantor, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Beneficiary. Upon any foreclosure
hereof or transfer of title to the Mortgaged _Property in extinguishment of the whole or any part
of the secured indebtedness, all of Grantor's right, title and interest in and to the insurance
policies referred to in this section (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable
thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the
extent permissible under such policies. Beneficiary shall have the right (but not the obligation)
to receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Mortgaged Property. If
Grantor fails to act reasonably and promptly in making proof of loss for, or settling or adjusting
any claim under, any such insurance, then Beneficiary shall have the right to make such proof
and settle and/or adjust, such claim; and the expenses incurred by Beneficiary in the adjustment
and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the secured indebtedness and shall be due
and payable to Beneficiary on demand. Beneficiary shall not be, under any circumstances, liable
or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds

shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Beneficiary,
including attorneys' fees, at Beneficiary's option be (a) released to Grantor, or (b) applied (upon
compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as may be required by Beneficiary) to
repair or restoration, either partly or entirely, of the Mortgaged Property so damaged, or (c)
applied to the payment of the secured indebtedness in such order and manner as Beneficiary, in
its sole discretion, may elect, whether or not due; provided, however, that Beneficiary shall make
such proceeds available to Grantor to pay for restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, so
damaged, if either (i) the amount of such proceeds is less than 5% of the construction costs, or
(ii) Grantor agrees to reasonable, Construction Loan provisions (primarily regarding advances of
those proceeds and Beneficiary's "pricing" of its activities and expenses connected therewith)
and amendments to the Loan Documents executed in connection with the Note, as then proposed
by Beneficiary. In any event, the unpaid portion of the secured indebtedness shall remain in full
force and effect and the payment thereof shall. not be excused. Grantor shall at all times comply
with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such
policies and of any board of fire underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the
Mortgaged Property.

in lieu of paying such taxes and assessments as they become due and payable, contest by
appropriate proceedings the validity thereof, and pending such contest Grantor shall not be

imposed or incurred in Cdnnectktin therewith, and (ii) if Grantor. promptly pays any amount

thereon, before such judgment becomes final or before any writ or order is issued under which

For value received, CITY OF HUNTSVILLE, a political subdivision of the State of Texas

Maker), the sum of One Hundred Ten Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty One and 70/100 Dollars
($110,931.70), or so much thereof as may be advanced and outstanding, together with interest on the
principal balance from the date hereof at a rate equal to Zero percent (0 %) per annum.
No interest shall accrue on this Note unless the maturity of this Note has been accelerated as
hereinafter provided.
The principal and interest, if any, of this Note shall be due and payable upon the sale of the
developed real property described below or on August 31, 2012, whichever occurs first ( "maturity ").
Payee agrees to defer and waive repayment of the principal loan amount, but only in the event
Maker: (1) has not at any time been in default under any terms of this Note or any document securing
payment of this Note, including without limitation, the Deed of Trust; (2) has complied with the
affordability requirements to wit, the rehabilitated or newly constructed single family residential
dwelling must be set aside for an individual or family whose annual income does not exceed 120% of
the area median income as defined in the Housing and Economic Recovery Act 2301(f)(3)(A)(i) and
(ii) of 2008 ( "Eligible Household "); (3) has sold the rehabilitated or newly constructed single family
residential dwelling at a sales price not to exceed $110,931.70 (an amount equal to the acquisition cost
of the property and cost to construct such single family residential dwelling to a decent, safe, and
habitable condition); (4) has converted the deferred, waived principal loan amount to a permanent
mortgage loan and/or down payment assistance loan under the NSP Program to an Eligible Household;
and (5) has submitted to Payee evidence fully executed and recorded, if applicable, homebuyer
assistance loans in a total amount not to exceed $110,931.70.
Upon maturity or the sale of the last developed lot to an Eligible Household, whichever is

the event Maker has not at any time been in default under any terms of this Note or any document
securing same.
T: \Idld \Loan Docs \NSP \Interim Construction Loans \1264 City of Huntsville\Note - for reimbursement v3_cn.doc
Page 1 of 6
Computations of interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be made on the basis
of 365 or 366 days in a year, as applicable.
After maturity (by acceleration or otherwise) and until paid, the unpaid, unwaived principal
balance and accrued interest then due shall bear interest at the lesser of (i) ten percent (10 %) per annum
or (ii) the highest interest rate allowed by Applicable Law ( "Default Interest Rate "). Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Note, -the daily Default Interest Rate•'s1iall be'calculated by dividing the
Default Interest Rate per annum applicable for such day by the actual number of days in the calendar
year (whether 365 or 366).
This Note may be prepaid in part or in its entirety at any time, without notice or penalty but any
amounts prepaid may not be reborrowed. Partial prepayment shall be applied first to accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, with the balance to the principal installments in inverse order of maturity. Any
payment received more than thirty (30) days before it is due shall be considered a prepayment, unless
Maker otherwise designates in writing at the time such payment is made.
Any amounts owing on this Note shall be payable at the address of Payee stated above (or at
such other place in Austin, Travis County, Texas designated by Payee in writing delivered to Maker at
the address of Maker set forth above) in lawful money of the United States of America that is legal
tender for public and private debts at the time of payment. The making of any payment in other than
immediately available funds, which Payee, at its option, elects to accept shall be subject to collection,
and interest shall continue to accrue until the funds by which such payment is made are available to
Payee for its use.
If any payment required under this Note is not paid within 15 days after it becomes due and
payable, then Maker shall pay to Payee, subject to the provisions of this Note- limiting the amount of
interest, the payment of a late charge (the "Late Charge ") to compensate Payee for the loss of use of
funds and for the administrative expenses and costs of handling such delinquent payment equal to a
one -time charge of five percent (5.00 %) of the amount of such payment that was not timely paid (but
such Late Charge together with all interest payable hereon shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate
under Applicable Law). The term "Applicable Law" as used herein means (1) the law pertaining to
maximum rates of interest that is now in effect and (2) any law that comes into effect at any time in the
future allowing a higher maximum interest rate than the law now in effect. Payee is not obligated to
accept any past due payment that is not accompanied by a Late Charge, but may accept such payment
without waiving its rights to collect the Late Charge. In no event shall a Late Charge be payable by
reason of the acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note; therefore, a Late Charge would
only be due and payable with respect to payments under this Note which became delinquent prior to the
acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced hereby.
Maker shall pay a charge of $25.00 for any check returned for any reason.
If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or is collected by legal
proceedings of any kind, Maker agrees to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fee
and costs to the extent allowed by law.
