	1.
	Amendment to Article 1.  The definition of “Gross Asset Value” in Article 1 of the Third Amended and Restated Agreement is hereby amended by: (A) deleting the word “or” at the end of clauses (b)(i) and (ii); (B) inserting the word “and” at the end of clause (b)(iii); and (C) inserting a new clause (b)(iv) as follows:
