2.Commitment to Increase Availability Under Note C and Note D. Lender hereby commits to increase the amount of credit available to Borrower under Note C to an original principal amount of up to One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000), and under Note D to an original principal amount of up to Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000) (such increases, the “Credit Facility Expansion”), subject to the full and complete satisfaction, as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, of the following conditions precedent:

(a) Borrower executes and delivers to Lender (i) an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (Note C - Term Facility) in the original principal amount of up to One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000) amending and restating Note C in its entirety (“Amended and Restated Note C”), and (ii) an Amended and Restated Promissory Note D (Note D - RELOC) in the original principal amount of up to Fifty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000,000) amending and restating Note D in its entirety (“Amended and Restated Note D”), each in substantially the same form and content as Note C and Note D, respectively, except as otherwise provided herein.

(b) Each Property Owner executes and delivers to Lender an amendment to the respective Security Instrument of which it is grantor or trustor, in form and content acceptable to Lender, providing that such Security Instrument secures Amended and Restated Note C and Amended and Restated Note D.

(c) Borrower provides to Lender, at Borrower’s cost, such endorsements to Lender’s ALTA loan policies of title insurance insuring Lender as to the continued first lien priority of all of the Security Instruments as security for the Loan, as modified to secure the Credit Facility Expansion, as Lender deems necessary or appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion, showing title to be subject to no matters other than the Permitted Encumbrances and those which may otherwise be approved in writing by Lender.

(d) Borrower, Property Owners and Guarantor execute and deliver to Lender such other documents, agreements, reaffirmations, guaranties and amendments as Lender may deem necessary to document the Credit Facility Expansion in a manner consistent with the balance of the Loan Documents.

(e) No Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Security Instruments, or any of the Loan Documents exists at the time of or shall have existed prior to the

completion of the Credit Facility Expansion, and no event or condition exists which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default.

(f) Borrower pays all costs incurred by Lender, including title insurance premiums and endorsement costs, reasonable legal fees of outside counsel, escrow fees, recording fees and any other third party costs relating to the Credit Facility Increase and the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions.

The date on which the Credit Facility Expansion is complete, including all conditions precedent thereto, is herein referred to as the “Effective Date”.

3.Unused Commitment Fee. As of the Effective Date, the Unused Commitment Fee currently payable in Note C and Note D shall be adjusted in Amended and Restated Note C and in Amended and Restated Note D, respectively, as follows:

(a) Amended and Restated Note C shall contain the following provision with respect to the Unused Commitment Fee:

“Borrower shall pay to Lender an unused commitment fee payable in arrears with each interest payment payable on an Interest Payment Date under the terms of this Note, in an amount equal to (i) if the outstanding principal balance under this Note is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the maximum amount available to be borrowed under this Note (initially $100,000,000, as may be reduced by any permitted prepayments of principal that may not be reborrowed), twenty (20) basis points per annum, or (ii) if the outstanding principal balance under this Note is greater than fifty percent (50%) of such maximum amount available to be borrowed under this Note, ten (10) basis points per annum, in each case times the average daily difference between such maximum amount and the actual advanced and outstanding balance of this Note for the immediately preceding interest accrual period (i.e., the semiannual period). Borrower may elect in its discretion, and Lender may elect upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in the Loan Agreement, to cancel any portion of the commitment to continue to make or draw funds available under this Note. Upon any such cancellation, Borrower’s future obligation to pay any unused commitment fees that have yet to accrue will be relieved. Borrower’s obligation to pay any Unused Commitment Fees that has not then accrued shall cease upon the expiration of Borrower’s ability to request Subsequent Disbursements under this Note, as established in the Loan Agreement.”

(b) Amended and Restated Note D shall contain the following provision with respect to the Unused Commitment Fee:

“Borrower shall pay to Lender an unused commitment fee payable in arrears with each interest payment payable on an Interest Payment Date under the terms of this Note in an amount equal to (i) if the outstanding principal balance under this Note is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the maximum amount available to be borrowed under this Note, twenty (20) basis points per annum, or (ii) if the outstanding principal balance under this Note is greater than fifty percent (50%) of the maximum amount available to be borrowed under this Note, ten (10) basis points per annum, in each case times the average daily difference between the maximum available amount under this Note ($50,000,000.00) and the actual advanced and outstanding balance of this Note for the immediately preceding quarter. Borrower may elect in its discretion, and Lender may elect upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in the Loan Agreement, to cancel

any portion of the commitment to continue to make or draw funds available under this Note. Upon any such cancellation, Borrower’s future obligation to pay any unused commitment fees that have yet to accrue will be relieved.”
