                                         may incur (including, without limitation, incremental tax liabilities, legal fees, accounting
                                         fees and other expenses) to the extent that such costs, liabilities and damages exceed
                                         the amount of the same that such other parties would have incurred pursuant to the terms
                                         of the Operating Agreement as a consequence of such failure to comply.



 


		c.	The
                                         Parties shall cooperate to make all necessary reports and file all necessary tax returns,
                                         in connection with the Redemption substantially in accordance with the agreements relating
                                         to tax matters attached hereto as Exhibit D.



 


5.           Property
Management and Development. In connection with the transfer of the TIC Interest, BRGF SPE has assumed, on a joint and
several basis with the Company, (i) the rights and obligations of the owner of the Property under the existing Management Agreement
(as amended and assigned contemporaneously herewith, the “Property Management Agreement”) with Matrix Residential,
LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, and (ii) the rights and obligations of the owner of the Property under the existing
Development Agreement (as amended and assigned contemporaneously herewith, the “Development Agreement”) with
Stonehenge Real Estate Group, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company. BRGF SPE and the Company agree to execute any reasonably
necessary amendments to the Property Management Agreement and the Development Agreement as may be requested by any of the parties
thereto, to reflect the transfer of the TIC Interest and the assumption of the Property Management Agreement and the Development
Agreement by BRGF SPE.

		a.	BRGF
                                         hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows: (a) BRGF is the sole owner
                                         of the Redeemed Interest; (b) the Redeemed Interest is free and clear of any and all
                                         liens, claims and encumbrances of any nature, (c) BRGF has full power and authority to
                                         transfer said Redeemed Interest and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and
                                         (d) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by and constitutes the valid
                                         and binding obligation of BRGF, enforceable against BRGF in accordance with its terms.
                                         Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(a), BRGF makes no representation or
                                         warranty to the Company or any other person relating to the Company's right to cause
                                         the transfer of the TIC Interest in redemption of the Redeemed Interest without the prior
                                         consent of any lender holding a security interest in the Property (including the holder
                                         of the Existing Loan) or the other Members' limited liability company interests.

                                         authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
                                         This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by and constitutes the valid and
                                         binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with
                                         its terms. The Company is not required to obtain any consent that has not been obtained
                                         from any person or entity in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
                                         the consummation or performance of any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or the
                                         purchase of the Redeemed Interest.



 


7.          Consents

Interest described herein and the withdrawal and cessation of BRGF as a member of the Company, and (ii) each other action effected
pursuant to this Agreement, and (b) waives in all capacities any and all rights such party may have as a result of such actions
(i) to receive notice of assignment and transfer of the Redeemed Interests or any other action effected pursuant to this Agreement,
(ii) to purchase the Redeemed Interests, (iii) to exercise any right of first refusal or other purchase right or option or buy-sell
provision arising under or with respect to the Operating Agreement, or (iv) to claim that any action effected pursuant to this

9.            Costs

in calculating the TIC Interest to be conveyed to the BRGF SPE pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise reimbursed by the Company
as part of the transfer of the TIC Interest, such costs and expenses shall be payable after the closing of the transfer of the
TIC Interest promptly upon receipt by the Company of a written statement from BRGF setting forth in reasonable detail the costs
and expenses to be paid pursuant to this Section 9. Subject to the foregoing, each party shall pay all costs and expenses
incurred by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

		a.	This Agreement and the transactions
                                         contemplated herein, and all disputes between the parties arising out of or related to
                                         this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or the facts and circumstances leading
                                         to its or their execution or performance, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall
                                         be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to conflict of laws
                                         principles.



 


		b.	The
                                         parties hereby agree not to elect a trial by jury of any issue triable of right by jury,
                                         and waive any right to trial by jury fully to the extent that any such right shall now
                                         or hereafter exist with regard to this agreement or any claim, counterclaim or other
                                         action arising in connection herewith. This waiver of right to trial by jury is given
                                         knowingly and voluntarily by the parties, and is intended to encompass individually each
                                         instance and each issue as to which the right to a trial by jury would otherwise accrue.
                                         Each party is hereby authorized to file a copy of this section in any proceeding as conclusive
                                         evidence of this waiver by each other party, as applicable.



 


		c.	The
                                         parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of any State or Federal court located within
                                         the State of New York, Borough of Manhattan or the State of Tennessee and irrevocably
                                         agree that all actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to this agreement shall
                                         be litigated in such courts. The parties accept for themselves and in connection with
                                         their properties, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts
                                         and waive any defense of forum non conveniens, and irrevocably agree to be bound by any
                                         judgment rendered thereby in connection with this agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably
                                         waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection it may now or hereafter
                                         have to such venue as being an inconvenient forum.



 


13.          Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the remaining provisions
of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

understandings, or agreements, oral or otherwise, except as stated herein. This Agreement amends the Operating Agreement with

15.         Counterparts;
Signature Pages. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall constitute
