Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 20, 2018, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Lex-Gen Woodlands, L.P. (“Lex-Gen Woodlands”), entered into a Seventh Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement and to Other Loan Documents (the “Amendment”) with iStar Lex Lender LLC (“Lender”), amending the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, dated April 21, 2004, between Lex-Gen Woodlands and iStar Financial, Inc. (“iStar”), as previously amended (the “Loan Agreement”) and certain other related agreements. The rights and obligations of iStar under the Loan Agreement had previously been assigned to Lender.
The Amendment (a) extends the maturity date of the mortgage on our facilities in The Woodlands, Texas from April 2018 to October 2018 and (b) provides that we will maintain liquid assets of at least $75 million. Under the Amendment, the mortgage loan’s monthly payment amount and fixed interest rate are each unchanged and a balloon payment of $12.2 million will be due in October 2018 in lieu of the balloon payment of $13.4 million which would have been due in April 2018.
