Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 30, 2025, The Saint June, L.P. (the Partnership), a Texas limited partnership and 34.13% owned subsidiary of Stratus Properties Inc. (Stratus), as borrower, Stratus, as guarantor, Texas Capital Bank, as administrative agent, and each of the lenders party thereto, entered into an Amendment to Loan Agreement and related agreements effective as of September 30, 2025 (the Amendments), which amend that certain Loan Agreement dated June 2, 2021 by and between the Partnership, Texas Capital Bank and each of the lenders party thereto, each as previously amended (collectively and as amended, the Loan Agreements) and the related Guaranty Agreement by Stratus. The Loan Agreements provide for a construction loan (as amended, the Loan) to finance a portion of the cost of the development and construction of The Saint June, a 182-unit luxury garden-style multi-family project within the Amarra development in Barton Creek, located in Austin, Texas. Construction of The Saint June was completed in fourth-quarter 2023.
The Amendments (i) extend the maturity date of the Loan to October 2, 2027; (ii) provide for advances of an additional $1.5 million, bringing the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to $32.9 million with no funds remaining available for additional principal advances; (iii) decrease the interest rate applicable margin from 2.35% to 2.00%; (iv) eliminate the requirement to make monthly principal payments prior to maturity; and (v) add a new property-level minimum debt yield financial covenant, which replaces the existing property-level debt service coverage ratio. If the debt yield financial covenant is not met, the principal balance of the Loan must be paid down in an amount sufficient to achieve the minimum debt yield. The Amendments permit the Partnership to distribute up to $1.5 million to the partners.
Accordingly, the Loan bears interest at the one-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 2.00%, subject to a 3.50% floor. Payments of interest only on the Loan are due monthly with the outstanding principal due at maturity. After closing costs, the Partnership intends to use the remaining portion of the $1.5 million proceeds of the Loan to establish reserves for Partnership expenses and make cash distributions to the partners.
The Loan is secured by The Saint June project and was fully guaranteed by Stratus. However, the guaranty converted to a 50% repayment guaranty upon completion of construction of The Saint June and, as amended, will remain in effect for the duration of the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stratus will remain liable for customary carve-out obligations and environmental indemnity.
The foregoing description of the Amendments is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendments, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed, Stratus and the Class B limited partner in the Partnership have made operating loans to the Partnership. In connection with the Amendments, the partners entered into an amendment to the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership to allow for up to $3.0 million of distributions to the partners between September 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027 prior to the Partnership’s repayment of the operating loans.

5.Loan Agreement - Commitment Increase. As evidenced and secured by the Third Lien Note, the parties hereto agree to increase the Aggregate Commitment from $32,320,000.00 to $33,320,000.00.

“Loan Amount” means the amount of $33,320,000.00.
6.Loan Agreement - Decrease in Applicable Margin. The parties hereto agree to decrease the Applicable Margin to 2.00%. Therefore, as of the Effective Date, the defined term “Applicable Margin” in the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the below definition.

7.Loan Agreement - Extension of Maturity Date; Deletion of Extension Periods. The parties hereto agree to extend the Maturity Date of the Loan to October 2, 2027 and delete Borrower’s right and option to extend under Section 2.11 of the Loan Agreement. Therefore, as of the Effective Date, (i) Section 2.11 of the Loan Agreement along with the definitions, and all occurrences, of “Extension Period”, “Extension Period (Second)”, and “Maturity Date (Second Extended)” are deleted in their entireties, and Borrower acknowledges it has no additional Extension Periods available under the Loan Documents; and (ii) the definition of Maturity Date in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:
““Maturity Date” means October 2, 2027, subject, however, to the right of acceleration as herein provided and as provided elsewhere in the Loan Documents.”
8.Loan Agreement – Deletion of DSCR Covenant; New Debt Yield Covenant. The parties hereto agree to add a new debt yield covenant to the Loan Agreement in replacement of the existing Debt Service Coverage Ratio covenant. Therefore, as of the Effective Date, (i) a new definition of “Debt Yield” is added in alphabetical order to Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement; (ii) a modified Section 6.9(a) is added to the Loan Agreement in replacement of the existing Section 6.9(a) of the Loan Agreement as shown below; and (iii) Exhibit J to the Loan Agreement is replaced with a new Exhibit J attached hereto:
““Debt Yield” means the fraction, expressed as a percentage, (a) the numerator of which is the annualized Net Operating Income from the Property for the trailing three (3) month period ending September 30, 2026, and (b) the denominator of which is the outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of the determination date. The calculation of Debt Yield is subject to Administrative Agent’s reasonable approval.”
“(a) On October 31, 2026, if Borrower has not delivered to Administrative Agent a compliance certificate (the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit J) that the Debt Yield is at least eight percent (8.00%) (the “Minimum Debt Yield”), Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, to be applied as a principal paydown on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, an amount determined by Administrative Agent which, when applied against the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, is sufficient to achieve such Minimum Debt Yield.”
9.Depository Requirement. Borrower agrees to cause Guarantor to open a money market deposit account with Administrative Agent with an initial balance of at least $5,000,000.00 but is not required to maintain a minimum balance thereafter.

10.Guaranty – Deletion of Burn-Off. The parties hereto agree that the liability of Guarantor with respect to the Indebtedness will not be terminated during the Loan term. Therefore, as of the Effective Date, Section 2(c) of the Guaranty is deleted in its entirety. All other provisions of the Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect.

$1,000,000.00 Effective Date: September 30, 2025
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, THE SAINT JUNE, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of TEXAS CAPITAL BANK, a Texas state bank, formerly known as Texas Capital Bank, National Association, a national banking association (together with its successors and assigns and any subsequent holders of this Note, “Lender”), as hereinafter provided, the principal sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) or so much thereof as may be advanced by Lender pursuant to the terms of that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of June 2, 2021 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”; the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined), by and among Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Texas Capital Bank, a Texas state bank, as Administrative Agent for the lenders (in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”).
Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note (this “Note”) from the date hereof until the Loans made by Lender are paid in full, at such interest rates and at such times as provided in the Loan Agreement. All payments of principal and interest shall be made to Administrative Agent for the account of Lender in Dollars in immediately available funds at Administrative Agent’s principal office. If any amount is not paid in full when due hereunder, then such unpaid amount shall bear interest, to be paid upon demand, from the due date thereof until the date of actual payment (and before as well as after judgment) computed at the per annum rate set forth in the Loan Agreement.
