corporation (“Triple Net” or “Manager”) and TRANSAMERICA OCCIDENTAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, an Iowa

W I T N E S S E T H:




WHEREAS, Borrower, as the owner, and Triple Net, as the property manager, entered into that
certain Management Agreement dated as of June 29, 2007 (the “Management Agreement”), with respect
to a parcel of improved real property in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (the “Property”),
containing 160 multi-family apartment units and related amenities, the address of the rental office
for which is located at 8010 Woodsedge Drive, Charlotte, North Carolina 28216;



WHEREAS, Lender made a loan (hereinafter referred to as the “Loan”) to Braemar Housing Limited
Partnership, an Ohio limited partnership (“Original Borrower”), evidenced by a Secured Promissory
Note in the principal face amount of $10,000,000.00 dated May 25, 2005, which Borrower, as the
successor in title of Original Borrower, is assuming pursuant to the terms of a certain Loan
Assumption and Modification Agreement of even date herewith among Borrower, Original Borrower,
Lender and others (the “Assumption Agreement”; such Secured Promissory Note, as affected by the
Assumption Agreement, collectively referred to as the “Note”),



WHEREAS, the Loan is secured by, inter alia, a Deed of Trust dated May 25, 2005, recorded in
Deed Book 18849, Page 135, Registry of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, encumbering the
Property, as modified by that certain Loan Assumption and Modification Agreement dated of even date
herewith (hereinafter referred to as the “Security Instrument”); and



WHEREAS, it is a condition of Lender’s execution of the Assumption Agreement that the
Management Agreement be subordinated to the lien of the Security Instrument and be collaterally
assigned to Lender;



NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as
follows:



1. Borrower hereby collaterally assigns and transfers to Lender all of Borrower’s right,
title, interest and privileges in the Management Agreement, together with any extensions or
renewals thereof and subcontracts thereunder.



2. The assignment herein granted is given for the purpose of securing the performance by
Borrower of all of its obligations and liabilities to Lender created or incurred under the Note,
the Security Instrument or under any other instrument or document given to evidence, secure or
support the Loan, whether now existing or hereafter arising, contracted or incurred (hereinafter
collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”).



3. Borrower will not terminate the Management Agreement, or modify or amend any material terms
of the Management Agreement without the written consent of Lender.



4. Notwithstanding any presumption to the contrary, (i) so long as Lender has not succeeded to
the interest of Borrower under the Management Agreement as herein provided, Lender shall not be
obligated by reason of acceptance of the assignment herein granted to perform any obligation of
Borrower under the Management Agreement, and (ii) Lender shall have no duty or obligation under the
Management Agreement until such time as Lender gives Manager written notice of its election not to
terminate the Management Agreement.



5. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender, as a material inducement to Lender to
accept the assignment, that:



(a) The Management Agreement is in full force and effect, free from any default, and has not
been amended or modified;



(b) Borrower has made no prior assignment of any of Borrower’s rights under the Management
Agreement and Borrower shall not make any such assignment; and



(c) Borrower has not done anything which might prevent Lender from or limit Lender in
operating under any of the provisions hereof.



6. A “Default” under the Security Instrument or the Note shall constitute a “Default”
hereunder.



7. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to give written notice
to Manager of Borrower’s default, and, if Lender gives affirmative notice that it desires the
benefits hereof, Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of Borrower under the Management
Agreement.



8. The Management Agreement and any extension, renewal, replacement or modification thereof,
and all of the right, title and interest (if any) of Manager in and to the Property are and shall
be subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument and to any renewals, modifications or
extensions thereof, and all rights of Manager, including but not limited to any right to collect
any management fees, leasing fees or other amounts accrued prior to any foreclosure under the
Security Instrument, are and shall be subject and subordinate to the rights and claims of Lender
under the Security Instrument.



9. In the event of the acceleration of the Note or the foreclosure of the Security Instrument,
or in the event Lender comes into possession of or acquires title to the Property by any other
means arising out of a Default by Borrower, Lender may, at its option, upon notice to Manager,
terminate the Management Agreement without obligation to Manager including, without limitation,
liability for any management, leasing or other fees or other amounts claimed by Manager; provided,
however, that at the option of Lender, Manager shall continue for a period determined by Lender, to
perform all of its obligations under the Management Agreement and shall receive compensation as
provided therein (excluding any compensation for or in connection with termination of the
Management Agreement) until such time as Lender terminates the Management Agreement or a substitute
manager shall have been approved by Lender and shall have commenced to manage the Property.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event Lender continues the Management
Agreement, Lender shall be responsible only for obligations which first arise thereunder during the
period Lender keeps the Management Agreement in force. Under no circumstances will Lender have any
liability for any obligations under the Management Agreement accruing prior to or after the period
during which Lender retains Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement or for any termination or
similar charges provided for in the Management Agreement.



10. In the event Lender comes into possession of or acquires title to the Property as
described in Paragraph 9 above and elects in writing not to terminate the Management Agreement as
described in Paragraph 9 above, Manager agrees to attorn to Lender and be bound to Lender under all
of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement for the period commencing on the
date when Lender succeeds to the interest of Borrower under the Management Agreement and ending
with Lender’s termination thereof, with the same force and effect as if Lender were a party to the
Management Agreement. Any such attornment shall be effective and self-operative as an agreement
between Manager and Lender without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any
party hereto. Nevertheless, Manager and Lender agree, upon the election of and written demand of
Lender, to execute an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provision.



11. Manager hereby certifies to Lender that the Management Agreement is in full force and
effect, free from any default, and has not been amended or modified except to the extent, if any,
described herein. Without limiting the foregoing, Manager warrants that it has received payment in
full of all leasing commissions and similar compensation due in connection with all leases executed
with respect to the Property.



12. Manager hereby agrees with Lender as follows:



(a) Manager shall serve upon Lender notice of (i) any alleged default by Borrower under the
Management Agreement, (ii) any intention to terminate the Management Agreement pursuant to any of
the provisions set forth therein, or (iii) any proposed amendment of the Management Agreement,
along with a copy of such amendment.



(b) In the event Borrower defaults under any of the terms and conditions of the Management
Agreement, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default. Manager
shall not take any action with respect to such default under the Management Agreement, including
without limitation any action in order to terminate, rescind or void the Management Agreement or to
withhold any payments thereunder, for a period of thirty days after the receipt of such written
notice from Manager to Lender (provided that in the case of any default which cannot be cured by
the payment of money and cannot with diligence be cured within such thirty-day period, if Lender
shall proceed promptly to cure the same and thereafter shall prosecute the curing of such default
with diligence and continuity, then the time within which such default may be cured shall be
extended for such period as may be necessary to complete the curing of the same).



(c) In no event shall Manager terminate the Management Agreement while Lender is proceeding
with the foreclosure of the Security Instrument or otherwise exercising its rights and/or remedies
as a result of a default of Borrower under the Security Instrument, the Note or any related
security instruments, except for the failure of Lender to perform its obligations pursuant to
Paragraph 9 above.



(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Management Agreement, from and
after the occurrence of any Default by Borrower under any Loan Document, and for as long as such
Default continues uncured, Manager shall not retain any sums in excess of the amount due and owing
Manager as compensation to Manager under the Management Agreement. Any such excess sums received
by Manager attributable to the period during which a Default exists shall be held by Manager in
trust for Lender, and Manager shall deliver such excess sums to Lender immediately upon Manger’s
receipt of notice from Lender of Borrower’s default.



13. Manager hereby agrees with Lender that if Lender shall succeed to the interest of Borrower
under the Management Agreement, or if Lender shall give Manager notice of its intention to
foreclose the Security Instrument and to come into possession of the Property, as provided above,
Lender shall not be:



(a) liable for any omission of Borrower under the Management Agreement; or



(b) subject to any offsets or defenses which Manager might have against Borrower; or



(c) liable for any management fees or other amounts due to Manager from Borrower for any
period prior to the date when Lender succeeds to the interest of Borrower under the Management
Agreement; or



(d) bound by any amendment or modification of the Management Agreement made without Lender’s
prior written consent.



14. All rights and remedies of Lender expressed herein are in addition to all other rights and
remedies possessed by it, including those under any other Loan Document. No delay on the part of
Lender in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or
partial exercise by Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude other or future exercises thereof
or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No action of Lender permitted hereunder shall impair
or affect the rights of Lender in and to the Management Agreement.



15. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors
and assigns. The words “foreclosure” and “foreclosure sale” as used herein shall be deemed to
include the acquisition of Borrower’s estate in the Property by voluntary deed (or assignment) in
lieu of foreclosure, by power of sale, or otherwise. The word “Lender” shall include Lender as
herein specifically named and any of its successors and assigns, including any person or entity who
shall have succeeded to Borrower’s interest in the Property by, through or under foreclosure of the
Security Instrument. The word “Borrower” shall include Borrower as herein specifically named and
any of its successors and assigns.



16. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except in a writing signed by all parties
hereto. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter herein contained.



17. The use of the neuter gender in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any other
gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to include the plural, when the context
requires.
