 B. All of the Lender’s right, title and interest in the Master Agreement and the Loan Documents executed in connection
with the Master Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement have been assigned to Fannie Mae pursuant to that certain Assignment of Collateral Agreements and Other Loan Documents, dated as of May 2, 2003 (the
“Assignment”). Fannie Mae has not assumed any of the obligations of the Lender under the Master Agreement or the Loan Documents as a result of the Assignment. Fannie Mae has designated the Lender as the servicer of the
Advances contemplated by the Master Agreement. 
  
 C. The parties
are executing this Amendment pursuant to the Master Agreement to reflect (i) the addition of four (4) Mortgaged Properties commonly known as (a) Summerwind Townhome Apartments, (b) Regency Palm Court Apartments, (c) Windsor Court Apartments, and (d)
Tiffany Court Apartments, each in California, to the Collateral Pool, (ii) an increase in the Variable Facility Commitment as set forth herein after, (iii) a decrease in the maximum amount by which the Commitment may be increased, and (iv) to modify
the notice provisions as set forth hereinafter. 
  
 NOW,
THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained in this Amendment and the Master Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged,
hereby agree as follows: 
  
 Section 1. Addition of
Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Properties commonly known as (a) Summerwind Townhome Apartments, (b) Regency Palm Court Apartments, (c) Windsor Court Apartments, and (d) Tiffany Court Apartments, are hereby added to the Collateral Pool
under the Master Agreement. 
  
 Section 2. Exhibit
A. Exhibit A to the Master Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the Exhibit A attached to this Amendment. 






 Section 3. Expansion. The Variable Facility Commitment shall be increased by $40,000,000
and the definition of Variable Facility Commitment is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following new definition: 
  
 “Variable Facility Commitment” means an aggregate amount of $140,000,000, which shall be evidenced by the Variable
Facility Note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, plus such amount as Borrower may elect to add to the Variable Facility Commitment in accordance with Article 4, less such amount as Borrower may elect to convert from the Variable
Facility Commitment to the Fixed Facility Commitment in accordance with Section 1.08, and less such amount by which Borrower may elect to reduce the Variable Facility Commitment in accordance with Article 5. 
  
 Section 4. Maximum Amount of Increase in Commitment. The
increase in the Commitment will decrease the maximum amount of increase as set forth in Section 4.01(a) of the Master Agreement and that provision is hereby deleted from the Master Agreement and replaced in its entirety by the following: 

 
 Section 4.01(a). Maximum Amount of Increase in Commitment. The
maximum amount by which the Commitment may be increased is $110,000,000, for a maximum total Commitment of $250,000,000. 
  
 Section 5. Redemption of Bonds; Termination of Regulatory Agreements. Borrower hereby represents to Lender that the proceeds from certain
Series K bonds (the “Bonds”) had been lent to the then owners, and Borrower’s predecessors in interest (collectively, the “Owners”), of Summerwind Townhome Apartments, Regency Palm Court
Apartments, and Windsor Court Apartments (collectively, the “Bond Properties”). In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, certain Regulatory Agreements dated as of July 1, 1985 (the “Regulatory
Agreements”) were executed, delivered and recorded as encumbrances against the Bond Properties, as applicable. 
  
 Prior to the acquisition of the Bond Properties by Borrower, the Owners entered into that certain Payoff Procedures Agreement dated as of February 1, 2004
(the “Payoff Procedures Agreement”) whereby an escrow account was established to defease and redeem the Bonds, and the liens and mortgages securing the proceeds from the Bonds and encumbering the Bond Properties were
released. Pursuant to the express terms of the Payoff Procedures Agreement, the Bonds shall be redeemed on or about April 1, 2004. Upon the redemption of the Bonds, Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that the Regulatory Agreements will
terminate as to the Bond Properties, as applicable. 
  
 On or
before April 15, 2004, Borrower shall cause the title company to remove the Regulatory Agreements from Lender’s title policy issued in connection with the closing of the Loan by an appropriate 110.1 endorsement. If Borrower shall fail to cause
the removal of the Regulatory Agreements from Lender’s title policy as aforesaid, the same immediately shall constitute an Event of Default under the Master Agreement and the Loan Documents, thereby entitling Lender to any and all remedies
available to Lender pursuant to the Master Agreement and the Loan Documents.
