Pursuant
to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from
time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) between IREIT CORAL SPRINGS NORTH HILLS L.L.C. (“Borrower”)
and Lender, Lender has agreed to make a loan (the “Loan”) to Borrower in an aggregate principal amount not to
exceed $5,525,000.00, subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement;


As

to be deemed satisfied.

12.               
Unconditional Character of Obligations of Guarantor.


12.1.          
The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability, in whole or in part, of the other Loan Documents or any provision thereof, or the absence
of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against
Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of the obligations
of Borrower under the other Loan Documents or Guarantor under this Guaranty, or any setoff, counterclaim, and irrespective of any
other circumstances which might otherwise limit recourse against Guarantor by Lender or constitute a legal or equitable discharge
or defense of a guarantor or surety. Lender may enforce the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty by a proceeding at law,
in equity or otherwise, independent of any loan foreclosure or similar proceeding or any deficiency action against Borrower or
any other Person at any time, either before or after an action against the Property or any part thereof, Borrower or any other
Person. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection. Guarantor waives
diligence, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, filing of claims with any court, any proceeding to enforce any provision of any
other Loan Document, against Guarantor, Borrower or any other Person, any right to require a proceeding first against Borrower
or any other Person, or to exhaust any security (including, without limitation, the Property) for the performance of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any other obligations of Borrower or any other Person, or any protest, presentment, notice of default or other notice
or demand whatsoever (except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary in this Guaranty).


12.2.          
The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the rights of Lender to enforce the same by proceedings,
whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be in any way affected by any of the following:




    	4



    	 



    

 


(i)                  
any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship,
winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting Borrower, the Property or any part thereof, Guarantor or any other
Person;


(ii)                
any failure by Lender or any other Person, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the
terms of the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or any document or instrument relating thereto;


(iii)               
except as permitted in the Loan Agreement, the sale, transfer or conveyance of the Property or any interest therein to any
Person, whether now or hereafter having or acquiring an interest in the Property or any interest therein and whether or not pursuant
to any foreclosure, trustee sale or similar proceeding against Borrower or the Property or any interest therein;


(iv)              
the conveyance to Lender, any Affiliate of Lender or Lender’s nominee of the Property or any interest therein by a
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure (i.e. dation en paiement);


(v)                
the release of Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms
or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law or otherwise; or


(vi)              
the release in whole or in part of any collateral for any or all Guaranteed Obligations or for the Loan or any portion thereof.


12.3.          
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives
all defenses in an action brought by Lender to enforce this Guaranty based on claims of waiver, release, surrender, alteration
or compromise and all setoffs, reductions, or impairments, whether arising hereunder or otherwise.


12.4.          
Lender may deal with Borrower and Affiliates of Borrower in the same manner and as freely as if this Guaranty
did not exist and shall be entitled, among other things, to grant Borrower or any other Person such extension or extensions of
time to perform any act or acts as may be deemed advisable by Lender, at any time and from time to time, without terminating, affecting
or impairing the validity of this Guaranty or the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.


12.5.          
No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal, release or other change of, or waiver,
consent, delay, omission, failure to act or other action with respect to, any liability or obligation under or with respect to,
or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of, the Loan Documents shall in any way alter, impair or affect any of the obligations
of Guarantor hereunder, and Guarantor agrees that if any Loan Document are modified with Lender’s consent, the Guaranteed
Obligations shall automatically be deemed modified to include such modifications.


12.6.          
Lender may proceed to protect and enforce any or all of its rights under this Guaranty by suit in equity or action
at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenants or agreements contained in this Guaranty or otherwise, or to take
any action authorized or permitted under applicable law, and shall be entitled to require and enforce the performance of all acts
and things required to be performed hereunder by Guarantor. Each and every remedy of Lender shall, to the extent permitted by law,
be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.


12.7.          
No waiver shall be deemed to have been made by Lender of any rights hereunder unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by Lender, and any such waiver shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific matter involved and shall in no way
impair the rights of Lender or the obligations of Guarantor to Lender in any other respect or at any other time.




    	5



    	 



    

 


12.8.          
At the option of Lender, Guarantor may be joined in any action or proceeding commenced by Lender against Borrower
in connection with or based upon any other Loan Documents and recovery may be had against Guarantor in such action or proceeding
or in any independent action or proceeding against Guarantor to the extent of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, without any
requirement that Lender first assert, prosecute or exhaust any remedy or claim against Borrower or any other Person, or any security
for the obligations of Borrower or any other Person.


12.9.          
Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be,
if at any time any payment is made by Borrower or Guarantor to Lender and such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned
by Lender (as determined by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion) upon insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization,
readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting
Borrower or Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made.


12.10.      
In the event that Guarantor shall advance or become obligated to pay any sums under this Guaranty or in connection
with the Guaranteed Obligations or in the event that for any reason whatsoever Borrower or any subsequent owner of the Property
or any part thereof is now, or shall hereafter become, indebted to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees that (i) the amount of such
sums and of such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at all times be subordinate as to lien, the time of payment and in
all other respects to all sums, including principal and interest and other amounts, at any time owed to Lender under the Loan Documents,
and (ii) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all principal, Interest and other sums
due pursuant to the Loan Documents have been paid in full. Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give Guarantor
any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or any right to participate in any way therein, or in the right, title
or interest of Lender in or to any collateral for the Loan, notwithstanding any payments made by Guarantor under this Guaranty,
until the actual and irrevocable receipt by Lender of payment in full of all principal, Interest and other sums due with respect
to the Loan or otherwise payable under the Loan Documents. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation
rights at any time when any such sums due and owing to Lender shall not have been fully paid, such amount shall be paid by Guarantor
to Lender for credit and application against such sums due and owing to Lender.


12.11.      
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall survive a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure (dation en paiement)
or similar proceeding involving the Property and the exercise by Lender of any of all of its remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents.


13.               
Intentionally Not Used.


14.               
Entire Agreement/Amendments. This instrument represents the entire agreement between the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof. The terms of this Guaranty shall not be waived, altered, modified, amended, supplemented
or terminated in any manner whatsoever except by written instrument signed by Lender and Guarantor.


15.               
Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor, and Guarantor’s estate, heirs,
personal representatives, successors and assigns, may not be assigned or delegated by Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit
of Lender and its successors and assigns.

prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
Guarantor hereby waives any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.


19.
