GUARANTY

GUARANTY, dated as of February 15, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”), made by InPoint Commercial Real Estate Income, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Guarantor”), in favor of Column Financial, Inc. (the “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of Buyers.

RECITALS

Pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of February 15, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Repurchase Agreement”), among InPoint CS Loan, LLC (the “Seller”) and the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers and Repledgees, the Administrative Agent on behalf of certain Buyers and the Seller may, from time to time, enter into transactions (each, a “Transaction”) in which the (i) Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers shall purchase from the Seller certain Purchased Assets and (ii) Seller will repurchase the Purchased Assets on the applicable Repurchase Date. It is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers to enter into Transactions under the Repurchase Agreement that the Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, to induce the Administrative Agent and Buyers to enter into the Repurchase Agreement and to enter into Transactions thereunder, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent and Buyers, as follows:

1.                  Defined Terms.

(a)                Unless otherwise defined herein, terms which are defined in the Repurchase Agreement and used herein are so used as so defined.

(b)               For purposes of this Guaranty, “Obligations” shall mean all obligations and liabilities of the Seller to the Administrative Agent and Buyers, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred, which may arise under, or out of or in connection with the Repurchase Agreement and any other Program Agreements and any other document made, delivered or given in connection therewith or herewith, whether on account of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and Buyers that are required to be paid by a party to the Transaction pursuant to the terms of the Program Agreements and costs of enforcement of this Guaranty) or otherwise.

2.                  Guaranty.

(a)                The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Seller when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.

The Guarantor shall pay additional amounts to, and indemnify, the Administrative Agent and Buyers (including for purposes of this Section 2, any assignee, successor or participant) with respect to Taxes (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement) imposed on payments pursuant to this Guaranty to the same extent as the Seller would have paid additional amounts and indemnified the Administrative Agent and Buyers with respect to Taxes under Section 11(e) of the Repurchase Agreement if the Guarantor were the Seller under the Repurchase Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any such payments are in addition to the Guarantor's obligation to pay any amounts required to be paid by the Seller to the Administrative Agent and Buyers.

(b)               The Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel), which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or Buyers in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Guarantor under this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the termination of the Repurchase Agreement or (ii) the Obligations are paid in full, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Seller may be free from any Obligations.

(c)                No payment or payments made by the Seller or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent from the Seller or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, remain liable for the amount of the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full.

(d)               Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, the Guarantor shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers on account of the Guarantor’s liability hereunder, the Guarantor will notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such payment is made under this Guaranty for such purpose.

2 

 

 

3.                  Right of Set-off. The Buyers are hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being hereby waived by the Guarantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all monies and other property of the Guarantor, deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Buyers or any affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Buyers may elect, on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Buyers against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Repurchase Agreement or otherwise, as the Buyers may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent has made any demand for payment and although such Obligations and liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Guarantor promptly after receipt of notice of any such set-off and the application made by the Buyers, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Buyers under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Buyers may have.

4.                  Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of the Guarantor by the Buyers, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or Buyers against the Seller or any other guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or Buyers for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Seller or any other guarantor in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent or Buyers by the Seller on account of the Obligations are paid in full and the Repurchase Agreement is terminated. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amounts shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

3 

 

 

5.                  Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations. Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Administrative Agent or Buyers, and the Repurchase Agreement, and the other Program Agreements and any other document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented, or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or Buyers for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guaranty or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Seller or any other guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Seller or any such other guarantor or any release of the Seller or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or Buyers against the Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

6.                  Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional.

(a)                Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived in reliance upon this Guaranty; and all dealings between the Seller or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Seller or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of the Repurchase Agreement, the other Program Agreements, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent; (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Seller against the Administrative Agent or Buyers; or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or

4 

 

 

without notice to or knowledge of the Seller or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Seller for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that they may have against the Seller or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Seller or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Seller or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied, or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers against the Guarantor. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Buyers and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees, and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall have been satisfied by payment in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Repurchase Agreement the Seller may be free from any Obligations.

(b)               Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby agrees, acknowledges, and represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Buyers as follows:

(i)                 Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of, and any and all right to assert against the Administrative Agent and Buyers any claim or defense based upon, an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent and Buyers which in any manner impairs, affects, reduces, releases, destroys, and/or extinguishes Guarantor’s subrogation rights, rights to proceed against the Seller or any other guarantor for reimbursement or contribution, and/or any other rights of the Guarantor to proceed against the Seller, against any other guarantor, or against any other person or security.

5 

 

 

(ii)               Guarantor is presently informed of the financial condition of the Seller and of all other circumstances which diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. The Guarantor hereby covenants that it will make its own investigation and will continue to keep itself informed of the Seller’s financial condition, the status of other guarantors, if any, of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment and that it will continue to rely upon sources other than the Administrative Agent for such information and will not rely upon the Administrative Agent for any such information. Absent a written request for such information by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, Guarantor hereby waives its right, if any, to require the Administrative Agent to disclose to Guarantor any information which the Administrative Agent may now or hereafter acquire concerning such condition or circumstances including, but not limited to, the release of or revocation by any other guarantor.

(iii)             Guarantor has independently reviewed the Repurchase Agreement and related agreements and has made an independent determination as to the validity and enforceability thereof, and in executing and delivering this Guaranty to the Administrative Agent, Guarantor is not in any manner relying upon the validity, and/or enforceability, and/or attachment, and/or perfection of any Liens or security interests of any kind or nature granted by the Seller or any other guarantor to the Administrative Agent, now or at any time and from time to time in the future.

7.                  Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation, or reorganization of the Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Seller or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

8.                  Payments. Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in U.S. Dollars.

9.                  Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Buyers as of the date hereof and as of each Purchase Date and at all times while the Program Agreements are in full force and effect and/or any Transaction under the Repurchase Agreement is outstanding that:

(a)                Guarantor Existence. Guarantor has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

6 

 

 

(b)               Licenses. Guarantor is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in any instance, the failure to take such action or to so comply or such default is not reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect. Guarantor has the requisite power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of, this Guaranty and each Program Agreement.

(c)                Power. Guarantor has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)               Due Authorization. Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements, as applicable. This Guaranty and the Program Agreements have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed, and delivered by Guarantor, all requisite or other action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(e)                Financial Statements. The Guarantor has heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent a copy of (a) its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the Guarantor ended December 31, 2016 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year, with the opinion thereon of KPMG LLP and (b) its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the quarterly fiscal periods of the Guarantor ended March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017, and September 30, 2017 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such quarterly fiscal periods, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year. All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations as at such dates and for such fiscal periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Since December 31, 2016, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Guarantor aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change. The Guarantor has, on the date of the statements delivered pursuant to this subparagraph no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases

or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Guarantor except as heretofore disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing.

(f)                Solvency. Guarantor is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent and, after giving effect to this Guaranty, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business. Guarantor neither intends to incur, nor believes that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature and is not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of such entity or any of its assets.

(g)               No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty and the Program Agreements do not conflict with any term or provision of the organizational documents of Guarantor or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction, or decree applicable to Guarantor of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over Guarantor, which conflict would have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in any violation of any such mortgage, instrument, agreement or obligation to which Guarantor is a party.

(h)               True and Complete Disclosure. All information, reports, exhibits, schedules, financial statements, or certificates of Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof or any of their officers furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent or Buyers in connection with the initial or any ongoing due diligence of Guarantor or any Affiliate or officer thereof, or the negotiation, preparation, or delivery of this Guaranty and the Program Agreements are true and complete and do not omit to disclose any material facts necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. All financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(i)                 Approvals. No consent, approval, authorizations or order of, registration or filing with, or notice to any governmental authority or court is required under applicable law in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty and the Program Agreements.

(j)                 Litigation. There is no action, proceeding or investigation pending with respect to which Guarantor has received service of process or, to the best of Guarantor’s knowledge threatened against it before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (A) asserting the invalidity of this Guaranty or any Program Agreement; (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty or any Program Agreement; (C) makes a claim individually in an amount greater than $1,000,000 or in an aggregate amount greater than $1,000,000; (D) which requires filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the 1934 Act or any rules thereunder; or (E) which might materially and adversely affect the performance by it of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Guaranty or any Program Agreement.
