Agreement


 


In consideration of the foregoing Recitals,
the conditions, terms, covenants and agreements set forth in this Amendment, and of other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and Purchaser agree that the Purchase Agreement is amended as
set forth in this Amendment:


 


1.          Defined
Terms. Each initially capitalized term used in this Amendment has the meaning set forth for that term in the Purchase Agreement,
unless it is otherwise defined in this Amendment.


 


2.          Development
Approvals Termination Notice. Solely regarding the Development Approvals for the Phase I Project, Section
2.4(d) of the Original Agreement is amended to provide that if Purchaser determines at any time that, in spite of the use
of its commercially reasonable and diligent efforts, it has been or will be unable to obtain Final Approval of the Development
Approvals for the Phase I Project by the Outside Closing Date for the Phase I Property, then Purchaser may, by delivering written
notice to Seller on or before October 10, 2015, (i) terminate the Purchaser Agreement (a “Development Approvals Termination
Notice”); or (ii) waive the condition for Final Approval of the Development Approvals for the Phase I Project and proceed
with the Closing for the Phase I Property on such date to which the parties may mutually agree, but in any event, no later than
the Outside Closing Date for the Phase I Property.


 


3.          Consent
to Assignment. Seller consents to the assignment of the Purchase Agreement, as amended, to an entity in which Purchaser
or Neil T. Brown holds a direct or indirect economic interest and which is controlled, directly or indirectly, by one or more of
Purchaser, Neil T. Brown, Bluerock Real Estate, LLC or Bluerock Residential Growth REIT, Inc.


 


4.          Counterparts.
This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together
shall be deemed to be one and the same Amendment when each party has signed one of the counterparts. This Amendment may be delivered
to the Escrow Agent and the other party by facsimile or in pdf format by email transmission.


 




     


     

    

 


5.          Entire
Agreement. The Purchase Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, constitutes the full and complete agreement and understanding
between Seller and Purchaser and shall supersede all prior communications, representations, understandings or agreements, if any,
whether oral or written, concerning the subject matter contained in the Purchase Agreement, as so amended, and no provision of
the Purchase Agreement, as so amended, may be modified, amended, waived or discharged, in whole or in part, except by a written
instrument executed by Seller and Purchaser.


 


6.          Full
Force and Effect; Incorporation. Except as modified by this Amendment, the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement are
hereby ratified and confirmed and are and shall remain in full force and effect. If any inconsistency arises between this Amendment
and the Purchase Agreement as to the specific matters which are the subject of this Amendment, the terms and conditions of this
Amendment shall control. This Amendment shall be construed to be a part of the Purchase Agreement and shall be deemed incorporated
in the Purchase Agreement by this reference.
