 RECITALS 

A.        All undefined capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning given them in the
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 12, 2014, among Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders defined therein (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have extended to
Borrower a credit facility (“Loan”) in a maximum principal amount not to exceed $100,000,000.00 at any time (subject to potential increases up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $750,000,000.00). 

B.        The Loan is secured by the property described in certain of the Loan Documents. 

C.        The Continuing Guaranty dated as of September 12, 2014, from Cole Real Estate
Income Strategy (Daily NAV), Inc., a Maryland corporation, and the Subsidiary Guarantors that are a party thereto (including each counterpart agreement and amendment thereto, the “Guaranty”) was delivered to Administrative Agent for
the benefit of the Lenders and guarantees the Loan. 
 D.        Borrower has requested
certain amendments to the Credit Agreement as described herein. The undersigned Lenders are willing to agree to such amendments pursuant to the terms and conditions of this First Modification Agreement (this “Agreement”). 

AGREEMENT 
 For
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree as follows: 

SECTION 1.    ACCURACY OF RECITALS. 

Borrower acknowledges the accuracy of the Recitals. 







 SECTION 2.    MODIFICATIONS. 

2.1        The Credit Agreement (including the Schedules thereto) is amended as needed to conform the
Credit Agreement to the blackline of the Credit Agreement attached hereto as Annex 1 (the “Conformed Credit Agreement”). The parties agree that after the date hereof, the Credit Agreement shall read as set forth in, and shall have
the terms, covenants, conditions and other provisions of, the Conformed Credit Agreement. The original signature pages and Exhibits to the Credit Agreement are deemed attached to the Conformed Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding that the cover page of
the Conformed Credit Agreement is dated “as of September 12, 2014”, the changes to the Credit Agreement effected by this Agreement shall be effective as of the date this Agreement. The conditions set forth in Section 4.01 of the
Conformed Credit Agreement were those conditions applicable to the initial Closing Date of September 12, 2014. The conditions to effectiveness applicable to this Agreement are those set forth in Section 6 hereof. 

2.2        Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Lender severally agrees to
make an additional disbursement under its portion of the Term Loan to the Borrower in Dollars on the date hereof, in an amount equal to the excess of such Lender’s Term Commitment as shown on Schedule 2.01 to the Conformed Credit Agreement over
such Lender’s Term Commitment immediately prior to giving effect hereto; provided, however, to the extent the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by such Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, such
excess shall be reallocated from such Lender’s Revolving Loans to the portion of the Term Loan held by such Lender. 
 SECTION
3.    RATIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS AND COLLATERAL. 
 The Loan Documents, including without limitations all
agreements, representations and warranties therein, are ratified and affirmed by Borrower and shall remain in full force and effect, as modified herein. Any property or rights to or interests in property granted as security in the Loan Documents
shall remain as security for the Loan and the obligations of Borrower in the Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 4.    BORROWER
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. 
 Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and the Lenders: 

4.1        No Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing. 

4.2        There has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower or any
other member of the Consolidated Group from the most recent financial statement received by Administrative Agent. 

4.3        All representations and warranties made by Borrower and set forth in the Loan Documents are
true and correct in all material respects on the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct, in all material respects, as of such earlier date.

Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms, subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and by
equitable principles of general application.
