	$25,000,000.00	  	December 2, 2011

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Resource Real Estate Opportunity OP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Borrower”),
hereby, promises to pay to the order of Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, together with any and all of its successors and assigns and/or any other holder of this Note, “Lender”), without offset, in immediately
available funds in lawful money of the United States of America, at 4 Penn Center, 1600 JFK Boulevard, Suite 1100, Philadelphia, PA 19103, the principal sum of Twenty Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) (or the unpaid balance of all
principal advanced against this Note, if that amount is less), together with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding as hereinafter provided. 

Section 1 Payment Schedule and Maturity Date. Prior to maturity, accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable in arrears
on the first day of each month commencing on January 1, 2012. The entire principal balance of this Note then unpaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (as
hereinafter defined), shall be due and payable in full on December 2, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”), the final maturity of this Note. 
 Section 1A Extension Option. Lender shall grant a request by Borrower to extend the Maturity Date of this Note to December 2, 2015 (the “Extended Maturity Date”), upon and
subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Basic Conditions. Unless otherwise agreed by Lender in writing:

 (i) Borrower shall request the extension, if at all, by written notice to Lender not more than 180 days, and not less than
45 days, prior to the Maturity Date. 
 (ii) At the time of the request and at the Maturity Date, any construction or other
improvements to be made to the Improvements (as defined in the Loan Agreement) which Borrower agreed to make to an Eligible Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) which is part of the Collateral Pool (as defined in the Loan Agreement) shall
have been completed as scheduled, and all conditions to the final Advance of proceeds of the Loan with respect to all such Eligible Properties which are scheduled to have been satisfied by such dates shall have been satisfied. 

(iii) At the time of the request, and at the time of the extension, there shall not exist any Event of Default, nor any condition or
state of facts which after notice and/or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default. 
 (iv) Current financial
statements regarding Borrower and each Guarantor (as defined in the Loan Agreement) (dated not earlier than forty five (45) days prior to the request for extension) and all other financial statements and other information as may be required
under the Loan Documents regarding Borrower, each Guarantor and each Eligible Property which is part of the Collateral Pool, shall have been submitted promptly to Lender, and there shall not have occurred, in the opinion of Lender, in the exercise
of its sole discretion, any material adverse change in the business or financial condition of Borrower or any Guarantor or any Eligible Property which is part of the Collateral Pool or in any other state of facts submitted to Lender in connection
with the Loan Documents, from that which existed on the date of this Note. 
 (v) Whether or not the extension becomes
effective, Borrower shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the proposed extension (pre- and post-closing), including without limitation, appraisal fees, environmental audit and reasonable attorneys’
fees actually incurred by Lender; all such costs and expenses incurred up to the time of Lender’s written agreement to the extension shall be due and payable prior to Lender’s execution of that agreement (or if the proposed extension does
not become effective, then upon demand by Lender), and any future failure to pay such amounts shall constitute a default under the Loan Documents. 







 (vi) All applicable regulatory requirements, including appraisal requirements, shall have
been satisfied with respect to the extension. 
 (vii) Not later than the Maturity Date, (A) the extension shall have been
consented to and documented to Lender’s satisfaction by each Borrower, Guarantor and Lender; (B) Lender shall have been provided with an updated title report and judgment and lien searches, and appropriate title insurance endorsements
shall have been issued as required by Lender; and (C) Borrower shall have paid to Lender a non-refundable extension fee in an amount equal to 25 basis points of the sum of (I) the outstanding principal balance of the Note plus (II) the
undisbursed amount of the Loan budgeted by Lender and Borrower to be advanced with respect to any and all Eligible Properties which are part of the Collateral Pool. 
 If all of the foregoing conditions are not satisfied strictly in accordance with their terms, the extension shall not be or become effective. 

(b) Changes in Loan Terms. All terms and conditions of the Loan Documents shall continue to apply to the extended term.

 Section 2 Security; Loan Documents. This Note is entered into pursuant to the terms of that certain Loan Agreement of
even date herewith by and among Borrowers and Lender (as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, the “Loan Agreement”). The security for this Note, from time to time, includes any and all
“Mortgages” (as that term is defined in the Loan Agreement). This Note, the Mortgages, the Loan Agreement and all other documents now or hereafter securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note (the
“Loan”), as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, modified or supplemented, are herein sometimes called individually a “Loan Document” and together the “Loan Documents.” 

Section 3 Interest Rate. 
 (a) BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate. The unpaid principal balance of this Note from day to day outstanding which is not past due, shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate of interest per annum (the
Floating Rate”) equal to the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate for that day plus Three Hundred (300) basis points per annum. The “BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate” shall mean a fluctuating rate of interest per annum equal to the
British Bankers’ Association LIBOR Rate (“BBA LIBOR”), as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source providing quotations of BBA LIBOR as selected by Lender from time to time) as determined for each Business Day at
approximately 11:00 a.m. London time two (2) London Banking Days prior to the date in question, for U.S. Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a one month term, as adjusted from time to time in
Lender’s sole discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. A “London Banking Day” is a day on which banks in London are open for business and dealing in offshore dollars. Interest
shall be computed for the actual number of days which have elapsed, on the basis of a 360-day year. 
 (b) Alternative
Rates. Lender may notify Borrower if the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating rate is not available for any reason, or if Lender determines that no adequate basis exists for determining the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate, or that any applicable Law or
regulation or compliance therewith by Lender prohibits or restricts or makes impossible the charging of interest based on the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate. If Lender so notifies Borrower, then interest shall accrue and be payable on the unpaid
principal balance of this Note at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate of Lender, from the date of such notification by Lender until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, or
until the Maturity Date of this Note (whether by acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise), whichever is earlier to occur. The term “Prime Rate” means, on any day, the rate of interest per annum then most recently
established by Lender as its “prime rate.” Any such rate is a general reference rate of interest, may not be related to any other rate, and may not be the lowest or best rate actually charged by Lender to any customer or a favored rate and
may not correspond with future increases or decreases in interest rates 

  
 2 








 
charged by other lenders or market rates in general, and that Lender may make various business or other loans at rates of interest having no relationship to such rate. Any change in the Prime
Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of a change in Lender’s Prime Rate. If Lender (including any subsequent holder of this Note) ceases to exist or to establish or publish a prime
rate from which the Prime Rate is then determined, the applicable variable rate from which the Prime Rate is determined thereafter shall be instead the prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal (or the average prime rate if a high and a
low prime rate are therein reported), and the Prime Rate shall change without notice with each change in such prime rate as of the date such change is reported. 
 (c) Default Rate. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender, in the Lender’s sole discretion and without notice or demand, may raise the rate of
interest accruing on the outstanding principal balance of this Note by three hundred (300) basis points above the rate of interest otherwise applicable (“Default Rate”), independent of whether the Lender elects to accelerate the
outstanding principal balance of this Note. Notwithstanding the provisions of 42 Pa. C.S.A. §8101 to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums outstanding under the Loan after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Borrower (whether by confession of judgment under a warrant of attorney, in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Section 6.10
of the Loan Agreement has occurred. Said judgment(s) shall bear interest at the Default Rate until satisfied in full. 
 Section
4 Prepayment. 
 (a) Borrower may prepay the principal balance of this Note, in full at any time or in part from time to
time, without fee, premium or penalty, provided that: (i) Lender shall have actually received from Borrower prior written notice of (A) Borrower’s intent to prepay, (B) the amount of principal which will be prepaid (the
“Prepaid Principal”), and (C) the date on which the prepayment will be made; (ii) each prepayment shall be in the amount of $1,000 or a larger integral multiple of $1,000 (unless the prepayment retires the outstanding balance of
this Note in full); and (iii) each prepayment shall be in the amount of 100% of the Prepaid Principal, plus accrued unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, plus any termination fee, breakage fee or other early payment penalty payable
in connection with any Swap Contract (as defined in the Loan Agreement), plus any other sums which have become due to Lender under the Loan Documents on or before the date of prepayment but have not been paid. 

(b) The terms of Section 8.20 of the Loan Agreement regarding the release of an Eligible Property which is part of the Collateral
Pool are incorporated into this Section 4. 
 (c) The terms of Section 2.1(a)(ii) of the Loan Agreement regarding the
Loan being a revolving credit facility are incorporated in to this Section. 
 Section 5 Late Charges. If Borrower shall
fail to make any payment under the terms of this Note (other than the payment due at maturity) within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of
the amount of such payment. Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed as in any way extending the due date of any payment. The late charge is imposed for the purpose of defraying the expenses of Lender incident to handling such
delinquent payment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other amount that Lender may be entitled to receive or action that Lender may be authorized to take as a result of such late payment. 

Section 6 Certain Provisions Regarding Payments. All payments made under this Note shall be applied, to the extent thereof, to
late charges, to accrued but unpaid interest, to unpaid principal, and to any other sums due and unpaid to Lender under the Loan Documents, in such manner and order as Lender may elect in its sole discretion, any instructions from Borrower or anyone
else to the contrary notwithstanding. Remittances shall be made without offset, demand, counterclaim, deduction, or recoupment (each of which is hereby waived) and shall be accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for
collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or 

  
 3 








 
banks. Acceptance by Lender of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due on any indebtedness shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, notwithstanding any notation on or
accompanying such partial payment to the contrary, and shall not in any way (a) waive or excuse the existence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), (b) waive, impair or extinguish any right or remedy available to Lender
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or (c) waive the requirement of punctual payment and performance or constitute a novation in any respect. Payments received after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to be received on, and shall be posted as
of, the following Business Day. Whenever any payment under this Note or any other Loan Document falls due on day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day. 

Section 7 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default”
under this Note: 
 (a) Borrower fails to pay as and when first due and payable any amount payable by Borrower to Lender under
the terms of this Note and such failure continues uncured for ten (10) days after the date such amount is first due and payable, except no such ten (10) day cure period shall be applicable at the maturity of this Note, whether such
maturity is the scheduled Maturity Date or Extended Maturity Date, if applicable, or by earlier acceleration. 
 (b) Any
covenant, agreement or condition in this Note is not fully and timely performed, observed or kept, subject to any applicable grace or cure period. 
 (c) An Event of Default (as therein defined) occurs under any of the Loan Documents other than this Note (subject to any applicable grace or cure period). 

Section 8 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may at any time thereafter exercise any one or more of the
following rights, powers and remedies: 
 (a) Lender may accelerate the Maturity Date and declare the unpaid principal balance
and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, at once due and payable, and upon such declaration the same shall at once be due and payable. 

(b) Lender may set off the amount due against any and all accounts, credits, money, securities or other property now or hereafter on
deposit with, held by or in the possession of Lender to the credit or for the account of Borrower, without notice to or the consent of Borrower. 
 (c) Lender may foreclose any liens or security interests securing payment hereof. 

(d) Lender may exercise any of its other rights, powers and remedies under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity. 

Section 9 Remedies Cumulative. All of the rights and remedies of Lender under this Note and the other Loan Documents are
cumulative of each other and of any and all other rights at law or in equity, and the exercise by Lender of any one or more of such rights and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Lender of any or all such other rights
and remedies. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall exhaust it or preclude any other or further exercise thereof, and every right and remedy may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No failure by Lender to exercise,
nor delay in exercising, any right or remedy, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the maturity of this Note, shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or as a waiver of any Event of Default. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing provisions, the acceptance by Lender from time to time of any payment under this Note which is past due or which is less than the payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment, shall not
(i) constitute a waiver of or impair or extinguish the right of Lender to accelerate the maturity of this Note or to exercise any other Right at the time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such Right, or
(ii) constitute a waiver of the requirement of punctual payment and performance or a novation in any respect.

 Section 10 Costs and Expenses of Enforcement. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender on
demand all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in seeking to collect this Note or to enforce any of Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether or not
suit is filed hereon, or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal. 
 Section 11 Commercial
Purpose. Borrower warrants that the Loan is being made solely to acquire or carry on a business or commercial enterprise, and/or Borrower is a business or commercial organization. Borrower further warrants that all of the proceeds of
this Note shall be used for commercial purposes and stipulates that the Loan shall be construed for all purposes as a commercial loan, and is made for other than personal, family, household, or agricultural purposes. 

Section 12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER, AND LENDER BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THIS NOTE, WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY

SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.

 6 








 
any manner otherwise permitted by law and nothing in this Note will limit the right of Lender otherwise to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any jurisdiction in which an
Eligible Property which is part of the Collateral Pool is located, subject to any provision or agreement for arbitration or dispute resolution set forth in the Loan Agreement. 
 Section 15 Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Note and of the other Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns
of the parties. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit Borrower to assign the Loan except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents. 
 Section 16 General Provisions. Time is of the essence with respect to Borrower’s obligations under this Note. If more than one person or entity executes this Note as Borrower, all of said
parties shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the indebtedness evidenced hereby. Borrower and each party executing this Note as Borrower hereby severally (a) waive demand, presentment for payment, notice of dishonor and of
nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices (except any notices which are specifically required by this Note or any other Loan Document), filing of suit and diligence in
collecting this Note or enforcing any of the security herefor; (b) agree to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any such security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon; (c) agree that Lender
shall not be required first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against Borrower or others liable or to become liable hereon or to perfect or enforce its rights against them or any security herefor; (d) consent to any extensions or
postponements of time of payment of this Note for any period or periods of time and to any partial payments, before or after maturity, and to any other indulgences with respect hereto, without notice thereof to any of them; and (e) submit (and
waive all rights to object) to non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the enforcement of any and all obligations under this Note and the other Loan Documents, except with
respect to any of the Mortgages which shall be enforced in the jurisdiction where the Eligible Property encumbered thereby is situated; (f) agree that their liability under this Note shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that
any title, security interest or lien taken by Lender to secure this Note is invalid or unperfected; and (g) hereby subordinate to the Loan and the Loan Documents any and all rights against Borrower and any security for the payment of this Note,
whether by subrogation, agreement or otherwise, until this Note is paid in full. A determination that any provision of this Note is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision and the determination
that the application of any provision of this Note to any person or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances. This Note may not be
amended except in a writing specifically intended for such purpose and executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment is sought. Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it.
This Note and its validity, enforcement and interpretation shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (without regard to any principles of conflicts of laws) and applicable United States federal law. Whenever a time of day is
referred to herein, unless otherwise specified such time shall be the local time of the place where payment of this Note is to be made. The term “Business Day” shall mean a day on which Lender is open for the conduct of substantially all
of its banking business at its office in the city in which this Note is payable (excluding Saturdays and Sundays). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement. The words
“include” and “including” shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation.” 

Section 17 Notices. Any notice, request, or demand to or upon Borrower or Lender shall be deemed to have been properly given or
made when delivered in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement regarding notices. 
 Section 18 No Usury. It is
expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Borrower and Lender at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve, or receive
a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this Section shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note and the other Loan Documents. If applicable state or federal law should at any time be judicially interpreted so
as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received with respect to the Loan, or if Lender’s


  
 7 








 
exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is
Lender’s express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, and the provisions of this Note and the other Loan
Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the
recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use or forbearance of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and
spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan. 
 Section 19 Joint and Several Liability. 

(a) As used in this Section 19, the term “Co-Borrower” shall mean Borrower and any other Person who becomes
a “Borrower” (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in the future pursuant to the Loan Agreement. 
 (b) Each Co-Borrower
agrees that it is jointly and severally liable to Lender for the payment of all obligations arising under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and that such liability is independent of the obligations of the other Co-Borrowers. Lender may bring
an action against any Co-Borrower, whether an action is brought against the other Co-Borrowers. 
 (c) Each Co-Borrower agrees
that any release which may be given by Lender to the other Co-Borrowers or any Guarantor will not release such Co-Borrower from its obligations under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents. 

(d) Each Co-Borrower waives any right to assert against Lender any defense, setoff, counterclaim or claim that such Co-Borrower may have
against the other Co-Borrowers or any other party liable to Lender for the obligations of the Co-Borrowers under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 (e) Each Co-Borrower agrees that it is solely responsible for keeping itself informed as to the financial condition of the other Co-Borrowers and of all circumstances which bear upon the risk of
nonpayment, including, without limitation, the condition of each and all of the Eligible Properties. Each Co-Borrower waives any right it may have to require Lender to disclose to such Co-Borrower any information that Lender may now or hereafter
acquire concerning the financial condition of the other Co-Borrowers. 
 (f) Each Co-Borrower waives all rights to notices of
default or nonperformance by any other Co-Borrower under this Note and the other Loan Documents. Each Co-Borrower further waives all rights to notices of the existence or the creation of new indebtedness by any other Co-Borrower. 

(g) Co-Borrowers represent and warrant to Lender that each will derive benefit, directly and indirectly, from the collective
administration and availability of the Loan under this Note and the other Loan Documents. Co-Borrowers agree that Lender will not be required to inquire as to the disposition by any Co-Borrower of funds disbursed in accordance with the terms of this
Note or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 (h) Until all obligations of Co-Borrowers to Lender under this Note and the other
Loan Documents have been paid in full, each Co-Borrower waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution (contractual, statutory or otherwise), including any claim or right of subrogation under the Bankruptcy Code
(Title 11, United States Code) or any successor statute, that such Co-Borrower may now or hereafter have against any other Co-Borrower with respect to the indebtedness incurred under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents. Each Co-Borrower
waives any right to enforce any remedy which Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other Co-Borrower, and waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Lender. 

  
 8 








 (i) Each Co-Borrower hereby waives any election of remedies by Lender that impairs any
subrogation or other right of such Co-Borrower to proceed against any other Co-Borrower or other person, including any loss of rights resulting from any applicable anti-deficiency laws relating to nonjudicial foreclosures of real property or other
laws limiting, qualifying or discharging obligations or remedies. 
 Section 20. Limitation of Liability.

 (a) The liability of Resource Real Estate Opportunity OP, LP is limited as provided for in Section 4.26 of the Loan
Agreement, the terms of which are hereby incorporated by this reference. 
 (b) The liability of each owner of an Eligible
Property which is added to the Collateral Pool and which becomes a Borrower for the unpaid principal amount due and payable under this Note shall be limited as provided for in Section 4.27 of the Loan Agreement, the terms of which are hereby
incorporated by this reference. 
 (c) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the
maximum liability of each Borrower hereunder shall in no event exceed the amount which under applicable federal and state laws relate to the insolvency of debtors. 
 THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. 

THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 
 BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS NOTE CONTAINS AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONFESS JUDGMENT, THAT IT HAS CONSULTED LEGAL COUNSEL WITH RESPECT THERETO (OR KNOWINGLY WAIVED ITS RIGHT TO DO SO), AND THAT IT
UNDERSTANDS THAT THE EXERCISE BY LENDER OF THE CONFESSION WILL RESULT IN THE ENTRY OF JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER AND THE SALE OR ATTACHMENT OF, OR EXECUTION UPON BORROWER’S PROPERTY (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION PERSONAL PROPERTY AND REAL
PROPERTY) WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE OR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A HEARING.
