 Exhibit 4.6 
  
 AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO 
 WELLS REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST II, INC. ESCROW 
 AGREEMENT FOR PENNSYLVANIA SUBSCRIBERS 
  
 THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO WELLS REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST II, INC. ESCROW
AGREEMENT FOR PENNSYLVANIA SUBSCRIBERS (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into as of February 4, 2004 between WELLS REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST II, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and
SOUTHTRUST BANK, a state banking institution organized and existing under the laws of the State of Alabama (“Escrow Agent”). 
  
 RECITALS: 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company and Escrow Agent entered into that certain Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. Escrow Agreement for Pennsylvania
Subscribers dated October 29, 2003 (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Escrow Agent was appointed escrow agent for purposes of holding the proceeds from an offering of up to 785,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01
per share (the “Shares) in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania., subject to certain terms and conditions, as further set forth in the Escrow Agreement; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company and Escrow Agent desire to amend the Escrow Agreement as set forth herein; and 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 
  
 Section 1. Section 3. The first paragraph of Section 3 of the
Escrow Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
  
 3. In the event that at the close of business on the date exactly 120 days from the date of receipt of the first instruments of payment
from an investor in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Initial Expiration Date”), which date will be communicated to the Escrow Agent in writing as soon as possible after determination, the Company will, within 10 days of the end of
the Initial Expiration Date, notify the investors whose funds are held in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account of their right to receive a refund, with interest. If a Pennsylvania investor requests a refund within 10 days of receiving the notice, the
Company shall so notify the Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent shall promptly return by check the funds deposited in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account with the appropriate interest, or shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent if
such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time, directly to each subscriber at the address given to the Company, but in any event within 15 calendar days from the date the Company received the refund request, as notified
by the Company to Escrow Agent. Amounts held in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account from Pennsylvania investors not requesting a refund will continue to be held for subsequent 120-day periods (the “Subsequent Escrow Periods”) until the

 Pennsylvania Minimum is received; provided that at the end of each Subsequent Escrow Period (each, a
“Subsequent Expiration Date”), the Company will again notify investors of their right to receive refunds with interest subject to the same time periods enumerated above. With respect to any Pennsylvania investor requesting a refund after
any Subsequent Escrow Period, Escrow Agent agrees to use its best efforts to obtain an executed IRS Form W-9 from such subscriber. Promptly following each Subsequent Expiration Date, and in any event no later than the next business day after each
Subsequent Expiration Date or as soon as possible thereafter, Escrow Agent shall promptly return by check the funds deposited in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account, or shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent if such
instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time, directly to each subscriber so requesting a refund at the address given to the Company. Included in the remittance shall be a proportionate share of the income earned in the
account and allocable to each such subscriber’s investment in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in paragraph 7 hereof, except that in the case of subscribers who have not provided to Escrow Agent an executed Form W-9, Escrow
Agent shall withhold a portion of the earnings attributable to those subscribers at the applicable rate in accordance with Section 3406 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall not be
required to remit any payments until funds represented by such payments have been collected by Escrow Agent. 
  
 Section 2. Section 7. Section 7 of the Escrow Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
  
 7. In the event the offering of Shares terminates prior to
the Company’s receipt of the Pennsylvania Minimum, income earned on subscription proceeds deposited in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account (“Escrow Income”) shall be remitted to subscribers in compliance with paragraph 3. Each
subscriber’s pro rata portion of Escrow Income shall be determined by the Company as follows: The total amount of Escrow Income shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is determined by multiplying the number of Shares
purchased by said subscriber times the number of days, if any, said subscriber’s proceeds are invested prior to termination of the offering, and the denominator of which is the total of the numerators for all such subscribers. The Company shall
reimburse Escrow Agent for escrow expenses attributable to subscribers who are Pennsylvania investors. Escrow Agent shall promptly remit all such Escrow Income in accordance with paragraph 3. Income earned that is not required to be remitted to
subscribers shall first be used to offset any fees or expenses of Escrow Agent and then be remitted to the Company. 
  
 Section 3. No Other Amendments. Except as amended as set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 above, the Escrow Agreement remains in full force and
effect, unamended.

annum, based upon the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Administrative Agent from time to time based on information provided to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof:

 ARTICLE II 
 THE COMMITMENTS AND BORROWINGS 
  
 2.01 Loans. 
  
 (a)
Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability
Period and in connection with the Credit Parties’ acquisition costs incurred in connection with the purchase of Real Properties constituting Approved Properties as of the date on which such Loans are made; provided, however, that
after giving effect to any Borrowing of Loans, (i) each Lender’s Aggregate Lender Advances shall not, in any case, exceed the amount of such Lender’s Initial Commitment; (ii) the Total Advances shall not, in any case, exceed the Aggregate
Advance Limit, and (iii) the Outstanding Amount shall not exceed the Aggregate Approved Property Balances. The Loans are not revolving. Amounts borrowed hereunder and subsequently repaid may not be reborrowed. The Borrower shall execute and
deliver to each Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a promissory note which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note shall be in the form of Exhibit B (a
“Note”). 
  
 (b) Interest Rate and
Payments. Commencing as of the first Interest Payment Date immediately following the Closing Date and continuing until the Loans and all other obligations under the Credit Documents are paid in full, the Borrower shall make monthly payments, on
each Interest Payment Date, of all accrued interest on the Loans. Subject to the provisions of clause (e) of this Section 2.01, all Loans shall bear interest at the LIBOR Rate, plus the Applicable Spread. All computations of interest
and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day
on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for such day. The determination of the LIBOR Rate by the Administrative Agent from time to time shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 

 
 (c) Maximum Interest Rate. Regardless of any provision of any
Credit Document, if for any reason the effective interest hereunder should exceed the maximum lawful interest, the effective interest hereunder shall be deemed reduced to, and shall be, such maximum lawful interest, and (i) the amount which would be
excessive 
  

 19 

 interest shall be deemed applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and not to the payment of
interest, and (ii) if the Loans have been or are thereby paid in full, the excess shall be returned to the party paying same, such application to the principal amount of the Loans or the refunding of excess to be a complete settlement and
acquittance thereof. 
  
 (d) Repayment of Loans; Maturity
Date. The Borrower shall, on the date occurring ninety (90) calendar days from date hereof (the “Maturity Date”), cause the Obligations (including, without limitation, all outstanding principal and interest on the Loans and all
fees, costs and expenses due and owing under the Credit Documents) to be Fully Satisfied; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Credit Document to the contrary, to the extent any of the
Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof (including, without limitation, Section 9.02 hereof), the Borrower shall, immediately upon the occurrence of such acceleration, cause such accelerated Obligations to be Fully Satisfied.

  
 (e) Application of Default Rate. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any amount payable by the Borrower under any Credit Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at
a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Furthermore, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay
interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due
amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 
  
 2.02 Borrowings of Loans. 
  
 (a) Each
Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable written notice (in the form of a Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and with respect to the acquisition costs incurred in connection
with a duly-approved Approved Property) to the Administrative Agent; provided, that the Borrower will provide telephonic confirmation of each such notice to the Administrative Agent immediately following the delivery thereof (although Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice received by it from the Borrower regardless of whether such telephonic notice is delivered). Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. two (2)
Business Days (or, to the extent there exists more than one (1) Lender as of the date of such notice, three (3) Business Days) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing. Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) the
requested date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, (iii) the Approved Property or Proposed Approved Property with respect to which such Borrowing is requested, and (iv) the Total
Advances which will have been made as of the date of such Borrowing (taking into account such Borrowing). 
  
 (b) Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable
Loans. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice.
Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Borrowing, Section 5.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds
as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to
(and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, that to the extent the Borrower does not specifically identify a different account, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to assume that any Borrowing is to be
funded to the account identified in the Borrowing Letter. 
  
 2.03
Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Prepayments of
Loans. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. one Business Day prior to the prepayment of such Loans; and (ii) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the
entire principal amount thereof then outstanding). Each 
  

 20 

 such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each
Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice
shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. 
  
 (b)
Mandatory Prepayments. 
  
 (i)
Outstanding Amount in Excess of Aggregate Approved Property Balances. If, for any reason, the Outstanding Amount as calculated on any given date, exceeds the Aggregate Approved Property Balances as of such date, the Borrower shall immediately
prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 
  
 (ii) Leverage Ratio Reductions. If, for any reason, the Total Leverage Ratio of the Borrower, as calculated as of any date following the date occurring forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, is
greater than 0.85 to 1.00, the Borrower shall (to the extent there exists an Outstanding Amount as of such date) immediately prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount required to cause the Total Leverage Ratio to be less than or equal to 0.85 to 1.00.

  
 (iii) Disposition Proceeds. The Credit
Parties shall, prior to or concurrently with (A) any Disposition of any Real Property/ies with outstanding Approved Property Balances, (B) any Disposition of any Credit Party owning any Approved Property/ies, or (C) any removal of one or more
Approved Properties with outstanding Approved Property Balances from qualification as “Approved Properties” hereunder, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to not less than one hundred percent (100.0%) of the then-applicable Approved
Property Balance(s) with respect to such Approved Property/ies. 
  
 (iv) Equity Contributions. The Credit Parties shall, as of the first Business Day of each calendar week, pay to the Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) an amount equal to (i) one hundred percent (100.0%) of
all equity contributions made by any person or entity to the REIT Guarantor, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries during the immediately prior calendar week, less (ii) costs and expenses of the Credit Parties and their
affiliates for such week related to equity raising activities, to the extent such costs and expenses are less than or equal to 13.5% of the gross equity contributions received, less (iii) at the option of the Credit Parties, all other costs and
expenses of the Credit Parties, to the extent (A) approved by the Agent, in its sole discretion (provided, that the Agent shall have the right to review such costs and expenses following application of any applicable prepayment) and (B) the Credit
Parties do not have on hand, as of each required prepayment date, funds from operations sufficient to cover such costs and expenses. 
  
 (v) REIT I Entity Activities. If the REIT I Entities amend or otherwise modify their offering prospectus in a manner which alters
the amount or timing of their required or permitted procurement of equity investments (other than as related to dividend reinvestment), the Credit Parties shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Agent’s request, prepay the outstanding
Obligations such that the Outstanding Amount is less than fifty percent (50.0%) of the Aggregate Approved Property Balances as of the date of prepayment. The Agent shall have the right to make a request pursuant to this subclause (v) following the
date on which such amendment or modification is made and following Agent’s review of any information provided to it prior to such date concerning the status of Borrower’s equity-raising activities and the impact of such amendments or
modifications thereon; provided, that the making of such request shall ultimately be in the sole discretion of the Agent and the Agent’s right to request prepayment pursuant to this subclause (v) may not be triggered by the investment by any
REIT I Entities in any unconsolidated joint ventures. 
  
 (vi) Application of Prepayments from Equity Contributions. The Credit Parties shall not be permitted to credit prepayments required to be made by them pursuant to subclause (iv) of this Section 2.03(b) against prepayments
required to be made in connection with subclause (iii) of this Section 2.03(b) (although such prepayments may be credited against any prepayments which might otherwise be required in connection with subclauses (i) and (ii) of this Section
2.03(b)). 
  

 21 

 (c) Application of Prepayments. All amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be
applied (i) first, to the repayment of all outstanding fees, costs and expenses due and payable by any Credit Party to the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents; (ii) second, to the repayment of accrued interest with
respect to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans; (iii) third, to the repayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans; (iv) fourth, to the payment of any other Obligations due and owing under the Credit Documents and
(v) fifth, to the Borrower (for application or distribution in accordance with the Credit Documents); provided, that (A) principal payments made with respect to the Loan shall, for purposes of determining outstanding Approved Property
Balances with respect to existing Approved Properties, be allocated to the outstanding Approved Property Balances in the order in which the applicable Approved Properties were acquired by the Borrower (with application of such prepayments continuing
with respect to each Approved Property Balance until such Approved Property Balance is equal to zero (0)); and (B) each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be applied to the interest accrued with respect to and the principal
of the Loans of the respective Lenders in accordance with such Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares. 
  
 2.04 Termination or Reduction of Aggregate Commitments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Reductions. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate
Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate
amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Outstanding
Amount would exceed the Aggregate Approved Property Balances. 
  
 (b) General. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each
Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. 
  
 2.05 Unused Fee.

  
 In addition to any and all other fees payable in
connection herewith, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) a daily fee in connection with the unused amount of the Commitments (the “Unused Fee”). The Unused Fee shall be payable as of
the first day of each calendar month and as of the Maturity Date in arrears in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Unused Fees accrued during the applicable calendar month period (or portion thereof). All Unused Fees shall be fully earned when
paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.  
  
 2.06
Evidence of Debt. 
  
 The Borrowings made by each
Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Borrowings made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the
obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect
of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with
respect thereto. 
  
 2.07 Payments Generally. 
  
 (a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition
or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which
such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later 
  

 22 

 than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of
such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office; provided that to the extent the Administrative Agent does not send such wire transfers to which the Lenders are entitled pursuant to this clause (a) prior
to the completion of the Business Day immediately following the date on which it receives any applicable payment from the Borrower, the amount distributed to the Lenders shall be accompanied by interest, calculated at the Federal Funds Rate, on the
amount to which each Lender was initially entitled. 
  
 (b) If any
payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

  
 (c) Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the
Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment is
not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then: 
  
 (i) if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of
such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender
to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and 
  
 (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof
in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the
“Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included
in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the
Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to
fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
  
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection
(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
  
 (d) If any
Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent
because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such
Lender, with interest calculated at the Federal Funds Rate (which interest shall begin to accrue on the second Business Day following the date of the requested Borrowing). 
  
 (e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any
Loan on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan. 
  

 23 

 (f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any
particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
  
 2.08 Sharing of Payments. 
  
 If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary,
involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all
or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion),
such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i)
the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered,
without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to
Section 11.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in
the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and
after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the
original owner of the Obligations purchased. 
  
 ARTICLE III

 TAXES AND YIELD PROTECTION 
  
 3.01 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Any and all payments by any Credit Party to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Credit Document shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Credit Party shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Credit Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), each of the Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Credit Party shall make such deductions, (iii) such Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with
applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, such Credit Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and
all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Credit Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or
registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
  

 24 

 (c) If the Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any
sum payable under any Credit Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative Agent or to such Lender, as the case may be, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that the
Administrative Agent or such Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have received if such
Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed. 
  
 (d) The Borrower
agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the
Administrative Agent and such Lender, (ii) amounts payable under Section 3.01(c) and (iii) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not
such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a demand
therefor. 
  
 3.02 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy;
Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. 
  
 (a) If any Lender
reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making,
funding or maintaining Loans based on the LIBOR Rate or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this subsection (a) any such increased costs or reduction in
amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern), and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political
subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Lending Office (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such
Lender for such increased cost or reduction; provided, that a Lender’s request for payment of such additional amounts may not extend to increased costs to such Lender which were incurred more than one (1) calendar year prior to such request.

  
 (b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law
regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided, that a Lender’s request for payment of such

 Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and
severally guarantees to each Lender, each Affiliate of a Lender that enters into a Swap Contract with respect to the Indebtedness evidenced by the Credit Documents, and the Administrative Agent as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as
surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors
hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and
severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity,
as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
  
 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Credit Documents or Swap Contracts, the obligations of each
Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions
of any applicable state law. 
  
 4.02 Obligations Unconditional.

  
 The obligations of the Guarantors under Section

therein, or any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the
Obligations have been Fully Satisfied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any
Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: 
  
 (a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the
Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
  
 (b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Credit Documents, any applicable Swap Contract between any Credit
Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Credit Documents or such Swap Contracts shall be done or omitted; 
  
 (c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be
modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Credit Documents, any applicable Swap Contract between any Credit Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in
the Credit Documents or such Swap Contracts shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; 
  

 26 

 (d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or
Lenders as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected (including, without limitation, any Lien granted in connection with the Mortgage Instruments); or 
  
 (e) any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for
the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor). 
  
 With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment,
protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Credit Documents, any applicable Swap Contract between any Credit
Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Credit Documents or such Swap Contracts, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.

  
 4.03 Reinstatement. 
  
 The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article IV shall be
automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any
proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference,
fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
  
 4.04 Certain Additional Waivers. 
  
 Each
Guarantor hereby agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of recourse to security for the Obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 4.02 and through the exercise of rights of contribution
pursuant to Section 4.06. 
  
 4.05 Remedies. 
  
 The Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as
between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 9.02 (and shall be deemed to have become
automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 9.02) for purposes of Section 4.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from
becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any
other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 4.01. 
  
 4.06 Rights of Contribution. 
  
 The Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves that, if any Guarantor shall make an Excess Payment (as defined below), such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to
such other Guarantor’s Contribution Share (as defined below) of such Excess Payment. The payment obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 4.06 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until such time
as the Obligations have been Fully Satisfied, and none of the Guarantors shall exercise any right or remedy under this Section 4.06 against any other Guarantor until such Obligations have been Fully Satisfied. For purposes of this Section
4.06, (a) ”Excess Payment” shall mean the amount paid by any Guarantor in excess of its Ratable Share of any Credit Document Guaranteed Obligations; (b) ”Ratable Share” shall mean, for any Guarantor in respect of any payment
of Obligations, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such payment of Credit Document Guaranteed Obligations of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount

 unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by which the
aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of all of the Credit Parties exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding
the obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder) of the Credit Parties; provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the Ratable Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any payment of Obligations, any Guarantor that became a
Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such
Guarantor in connection with such payment; (c) ”Contribution Share” shall mean, for any Guarantor in respect of any Excess Payment made by any other Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such Excess Payment of
(i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but
excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of the Credit Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment exceeds the amount of
all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Credit Parties) of the Credit Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment; provided,
however, that, for purposes of calculating the Contribution Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any Excess Payment, any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such Excess Payment shall be deemed to have been a
Guarantor on the date of such Excess Payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such Guarantor in connection with such Excess Payment; and (d) ” Credit
Document Guaranteed Obligations” shall mean the Obligations guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant to this Article IV. This Section 4.06 shall not be deemed to affect any right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or
contribution that any Guarantor may have under Law against the Borrower in respect of any payment of Credit Document Guaranteed Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights of contribution against any Guarantor shall terminate from and
after such time, if ever, that such Guarantor shall be relieved of its obligations shall be relieved of its obligations in accordance with Section 10.11.

manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Credit Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document, or for any failure of any Credit Party or any other party to any Credit Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Credit Party or any Affiliate
thereof. 
  
 10.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or
conversation reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Credit Party), independent accountants
and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required
Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of
Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 
  
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.01, each Lender that has signed
this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto. 
  
 10.05 Notice of Default. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment
of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing
such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default
as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article IX; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 
  

 52 

 10.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. 
  
 Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any
representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent
that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into
this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative
Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness
of any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person. 
  
 10.07 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. 
  
 Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not
reimbursed by or on behalf of any Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any Credit Party to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it;
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to
constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise)
of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by
or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.08 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. 
  
 Bank of America and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of
credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates as
though Bank of America were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any
Credit Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Credit Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such
information to them. With respect to its Loans, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms
“Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America in its individual capacity. 
  

 53 

 10.09 Successor Administrative Agent. 
  
 The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders. In addition, the
Administrative Agent may be removed at the written direction of the Required Lenders to the extent the Administrative Agent is shown to be grossly negligent in the performance of its material obligations and/or duties hereunder or to have engaged in
willful misconduct in the performance of such obligations and/or duties. 
  
 If the Administrative Agent resigns or is otherwise removed as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders,
which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If no
successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor administrative
agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent. Upon such retirement or removal, the retiring/removed Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative
Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Administrative Agent or any other Lender. After any former Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the
provisions of this Article X and Sections 11.04 and 11.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative
agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or the removal of an Administrative Agent by the Lenders, the retiring/removed Administrative
Agent’s resignation or removal (as applicable) shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor agent as provided for above. 
  
 10.10 Administrative Agent May
File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then
be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

  
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole
amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and (j), 2.08 and 11.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
  
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar
official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to
pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections
2.08 and 11.04. 
  
 Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to
authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
  

 54 

 10.11 Credit Document Guaranty Matters. 
  
 The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion: 
  
 (a) to release any Guarantor (other than the REIT Guarantor)
from its obligations hereunder and under any of the other Credit Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of any Credit Party as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; 
  
 (b) to release the other Credit Parties hereunder from any obligations under the Collateral Documents with
respect to the Capital Stock of or any other interests in any Guarantor released pursuant to clause (a) above; and 
  
 (c) to terminate and release any Mortgage Instrument or Assignment of Leases with respect to any Real Property for which a prepayment of
100% of the Approved Property Balance related to such Real Property is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03(b)(iii) hereof and which is to be disposed of by the applicable Credit Party. 
  
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders
will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to grant releases and terminations pursuant to this Section 10.11. 
  
 10.12 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. 
  
 None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,”
“documentation agent,” “co-agent,” “book manager,” “lead manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility
or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

 
 ARTICLE XI 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 11.01 Amendments, Etc. 
  
 No amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Credit Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower or the
applicable Credit Party, as the case may be, and delivered to the Administrative Agent at its address set forth on Schedule 11.02 or unless approval or consent of such matter is deemed to have occurred pursuant to Section 11.02(d)
hereof, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 
  
 (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or
reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 9.02) without the written consent (or deemed approval) of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 5.02 or of any
Default or Event of Default or mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender); 
  
 (b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Credit Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts
due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the written consent (or deemed approval) of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
  

 55 

 (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or any
fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the written consent (or deemed approval) of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders
shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate; 
  
 (d) change Section 2.12 or Section 9.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby
without the written consent (or deemed approval) of each Lender; 
  
 (e) change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any
rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent (or deemed approval) of each Lender; 
  
 (f) except as the result of or in connection with a dissolution, merger or disposition of a Credit Party not prohibited by Section
8.04 or Section 8.05, release the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or substantially all of the other Credit Parties from its or their obligations under the Credit Documents without the written consent (or deemed approval) of each Lender;

  
 and, provided further, that no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall
have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender. 
  
 Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in
certain circumstances as set forth above, (x) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy
Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein and (y) the Required Lenders shall determine whether or not to allow a Credit Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding and such
determination shall be binding on all of the Lenders. 
  
 11.02 Notices and
Other Communications; Facsimile Copies. 
  
 (a)
General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed, faxed or delivered to the
applicable address, facsimile number or (subject to subsection (c) below) electronic mail address, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as
follows: 
  
 (i) if to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 11.02 (as the same may be updated by the Borrower from time to time by notice to the Administrative
Agent) or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties; and 
  
 (ii) if to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number
specified in its Administrative Questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  

 56 

 All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur
of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage
prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below), when delivered; provided,
however, that notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by such Person. In no event shall a voicemail message be effective as a notice,
communication or confirmation hereunder. 
  
 (b) Effectiveness
of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Credit Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed
originals and shall be binding on all Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided,
however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 
  
 (c) Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and Internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications, such
as financial statements and other information as provided in Section 7.02, and to distribute Credit Documents for execution by the parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose. 
  
 (d) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative
Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or
were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from
all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded
by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. To the extent a Lender or any Credit Party is given written notice of any request for an approval, consent or other decision from the Administrative Agent
and such Person fails to reply to any such request within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt (or deemed receipt) thereof, such Lender or Credit Party shall be deemed to have approved the requested action, amendment, waiver or other matter.

  
 11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
  
 No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no
delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

 
 11.04 Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes. 
  
 The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree (a) to pay or reimburse the
Administrative Agent for all reasonable and actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or other
modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all reasonable
and actual Attorney Costs, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or
remedies under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law), including all reasonable and actual Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the 
  

 57 

 Administrative Agent and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 11.04 shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and
repayment of all other Obligations. 
  
 11.05 Indemnification by the Credit
Parties. 
  
 Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby are consummated, the Credit Parties jointly and severally shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact
(collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind
or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of
any Credit Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed use
of the proceeds therefrom, (c) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Credit Party, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Credit
Party, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending
or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), in all cases, whether or not caused by or
arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. No Indemnitee
shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee have any
liability for any indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). All amounts due under this
Section 11.05 shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
  
 11.06 Payments Set Aside. 
  
 To the
extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Credit Party is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part
thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
  
 11.07 Successors and Assigns. 
  
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Credit Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent
of each Lender (other than in connection with a transaction not prohibited by Section 8.04) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the

  

 58 

 provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) or (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and
void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of
this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans
at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined in subsection (g) of this Section) with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this
purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is
specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $2,500,000.00 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to
the Loans or the Commitment assigned; (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify
as an Eligible Assignee); (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (v) no party that is, immediately
following such assignment, a Lender under this Agreement shall have, immediately following such assignment, a Commitment that is less than $5,000,000.00 in the aggregate. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 11.04 and 11.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver
a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation
in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section. 
  
 (c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  
 (d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such
Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant 
  

 59 

 to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s
prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 11.15 as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if
any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
  
 (g) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: 
  
 “Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and (d) any other Person
(other than a natural person) approved by (i) the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (ii) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, “Eligible Assignee” shall not include the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
  
 “Fund” means any Person (other than a
natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business. 
  
 “Approved Fund” means any Fund that is
administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
  
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans
owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a
Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 11.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Credit Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of
the rights of a Lender under the Credit Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. 
  
 11.08 Confidentiality. 
  
 Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may
be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by 
  

 60 

 applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e)
in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an
agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or to any credit derivative transaction relating to the Credit Parties and their obligations; (g) with the consent of the Borrower; and (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Credit Parties. For purposes of this Section,
“Information” means all information received from any Credit Party relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential
basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party, provided that, in the case of information received from a Credit Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as
such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
  
 11.09
Set-off. 
  
 In addition to any rights and remedies of
the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Credit Party, any such notice being waived by each Credit
Party to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or
the account of the respective Credit Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender hereunder or under any other Credit Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall
have made demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly
to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be entitled to set-off or apply any deposits in a property specific operating account or reserve account established by a Credit Party for any Real Properties encumbered by mortgage liens in favor of
another financial institution to the extent such financial institution expressly requires such agreement by the Lenders hereunder and provided such Lender and the Administrative Agent has received notice of the interest of such other financial
institution prior to such set-off or application. The list of accounts as of the Closing Date (and as of each date on which such schedule is subsequently updated pursuant to the terms hereof) which are not subject to set-off is set forth on
Schedule 11.09 attached hereto. 
  
 11.10 Interest Rate
Limitation. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative
Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or
premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations
hereunder. 
  
 11.11 Counterparts. 
  
 This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
  

 61 

 11.12 Integration. 
  
 This Agreement, together with the other Credit Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on
the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Credit Document, the provisions of this
Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Credit Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Credit Document
was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 
  
 11.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. 
  
 All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Credit
Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default
at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. 
  
 11.14 Severability. 
  
 If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 11.15 Tax
Forms. 
  
 (a) (i) Each Lender that is not a “United
States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code
(or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein), a duly signed completed copy of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all
payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or such other
evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from
time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to
time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available
exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, (B) promptly notify each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of any
change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary
(including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. 
  

 62 

 (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own
account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Credit Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (in
the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) a duly signed completed copy of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such
Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) a duly signed completed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any
other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender. 
  
 (iii) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any
additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 3.01 (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an IRS Form
W-8IMY pursuant to this Section 11.15(a) or (B) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.15(a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this Section
11.15(a) on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Credit Documents, nothing in this Section 11.15(a) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay any
amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is
no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Credit Documents
is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate. 
  
 (iv) The Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Credit Documents with respect to which the Borrower is not required to
pay additional amounts under this Section 11.15(a). 
  
 (b)
Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a duly signed
completed copy of IRS Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed
by the Code, without reduction. 
  
 (c) If any Governmental
Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent or the Borrower did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower under this Section, and costs and expenses (including
Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and the resignation of the
Administrative Agent. 
  
 11.16 Replacement of Lenders. 

 
 Under any circumstances set forth herein providing that the Borrower
shall have the right to replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment and outstanding Loans (with the
assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) pursuant to Section 11.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by the Borrower; provided, however, that if the Borrower elects to exercise
such right with respect to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(b), it shall be obligated to replace all Lenders that have made 
  

 63 

 similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04. The Borrower shall (a) pay in full all
principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of replacement (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05) and (b) release such Lender from its obligations under the Credit Documents. Any Lender
being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans. 
  
 11.17 Governing Law. 
  
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE
PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 
  
 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA
SITTING IN FULTON COUNTY OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN
RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON
THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE
GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE. 
  
 11.18 Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. 
  
 EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR THE
TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE
DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY. 
  
 11.19 USA Patriot Act. 
  
 Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender)
hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
  
 11.20 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT
AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.
