covenant, condition, agreement or easement relating to any environmental matters and applicable to the Property and which is reasonably likely, in any such case, to result in a Material Adverse Effect; 

(j) Borrower shall promptly notify Lender as it becomes aware of (i) any presence of or Releases of
Hazardous Substances in, on, under, or from the Property; (ii) any material non-compliance with any Environmental Laws related in any way to the Property; (iii) any actual Environmental Lien; (iv) any Remediation of environmental

consultant satisfactory to Lender to conduct an environmental assessment or audit to assess any and all aspects of the condition giving rise to such belief (the scope of which shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of Lender) and take any
samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or building materials or any other invasive testing requested by Lender and promptly deliver the 

  
 ENVIRONMENTAL
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 3 

 
results of any such assessment, audit, sampling or other testing to Lender; provided, however, that, if such results are not delivered to Lender within a reasonable period, upon
reasonable notice to Indemnitor, Lender and any other Person designated by Lender, including but not limited to any receiver, any representative of a Governmental Authority, and any environmental consultant shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times (subject to the rights of tenants) to assess any and all aspects of the environmental condition of the applicable Property, including but not limited to, by conducting any environmental
assessment or audit (the scope of which shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of Lender) and taking samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or building materials, and reasonably conducting other invasive testing. Indemnitor
shall cooperate with and provide, upon advance notice to each of them, Lender and any such Person designated by Lender with such access to the Property. 
 4. Indemnification. Indemnitor covenants and agrees to protect defend, indemnify, release and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against, any and all Losses and costs of Remediation
(whether or not performed voluntarily), engineers’ fees, environmental consultants’ fees and costs of investigation (including but not limited to sampling, testing and analysis of soil, water, air, building materials and other materials

(e) any present non-compliance or violations of any Environmental Laws (or permits issued pursuant to any
Environmental Laws) in connection with the Property or operations thereon, including but not limited to any failure by Borrower, any Person affiliated with Borrower, or any tenant or other user of the Property to comply with any order of any

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 4 

 (h) any act of Borrower, any Person affiliated with
Borrower, or any tenant or other user of the Property in arranging for disposal or treatment, or arranging with a transporter for transport, disposal or treatment, of Hazardous Substances relating to the Property, which are owned or possessed by
Borrower, any Person affiliated with Borrower or any tenant or other user of the Property, in each case, at any disposal or treatment facilities, incineration vessels or sites owned or operated by another Person and containing such or any similar
Hazardous Substances; 
 (i) any act of Borrower, any Person affiliated with Borrower, or any
tenant or other user of the Property in accepting any Hazardous Substances for transport to disposal or treatment facilities, incineration vessels or sites selected by Borrower or such other users from which there is a Release, or a threatened
Release of any Hazardous Substance which causes the incurrence of costs for Remediation; 
 (j)
any personal injury, wrongful death, or property or other damage arising under any statutory or common law or tort law theory by reason of the wrongful acts or omissions of Borrower, any Person affiliated with Borrower or any tenant or other user of
the Property with respect to environmental matters, including but not limited to damages assessed for private or public nuisance or for the conducting of an abnormally dangerous activity on or near the Property;

actions required at the Property for purposes of addressing any medical or legal concerns resulting therefrom. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnity provided by this Section 4 shall not
apply to any Losses, costs of Remediation or other liabilities of any Indemnified Party in the circumstances described above if the Release or other environmental matter giving rise to same shall occur on, at or under the Property subsequent to the
time that Borrower ceases to be in possession of the Property as a result of the exercise by Lender of any remedies provided in the Loan Documents. 
 5. Duty to Defend and Attorneys’ and Other Fees and Expenses. Indemnitor agrees that, upon request by any Indemnified Party, the Indemnitor shall defend such Indemnified Party against any
claim for which Indemnitor is indemnifying the Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 4 above (if requested by any Indemnified Party, in the name of such Indemnified Party) by attorneys and other professionals reasonably approved by the
Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the defendants in a claim include Borrower and any Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that (A) there are legal defenses available to it that are materially different from
those available to Indemnitor, or (B) the use of the attorneys engaged by Indemnitor would present such attorneys with a conflict of interest, such Indemnified Party may, in its sole and absolute discretion, engage its own attorneys and other
professionals to assume its legal defenses and to defend or assist it, and, at the option of such Indemnified Party, 

  
 ENVIRONMENTAL

its attorneys shall control the resolution of any claim or proceeding against such Indemnified Party, provided that no compromise or settlement shall be entered without the Indemnitor’s
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Upon demand, Indemnitor shall be liable to, and shall, pay or, in the sole and absolute discretion of any Indemnified Party, reimburse, such Indemnified Party for the payment of reasonable
fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, environmental consultants, laboratories and other professionals in connection therewith.

 8. Enforcement. 

(a) The Indemnified Parties may enforce the obligations of Borrower without first resorting to or
exhausting any security or collateral or without first having recourse to the Note, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Documents, through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise. It is not necessary for an Event of Default to have occurred pursuant
to and as defined in the Loan Agreement for any Indemnified Party to exercise its rights pursuant to this Agreement. Indemnitor hereby acknowledges and agrees that Indemnitor is fully and personally liable for the obligations thereunder, and any
liability hereunder is not limited to the original or amortized principal balance of the Loan or the value of the Property. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, this Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be secured by the Security Instrument. Without limiting any of the remedies provided in the
Loan Documents, Indemnitor acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Agreement are environmental provisions made by Indemnitor relating to the Property (the “Environmental Provisions”). Indemnitor’s breach or a
failure to comply with the Environmental Provisions shall constitute a breach of contract entitling the Indemnified Parties to all remedies for the recovery of damages and for the enforcement of the Environmental Provisions. The Indemnified
Parties’ actions for recovery of damages or enforcement of the Environmental Provisions shall not constitute an action nor constitute a money judgment for a deficiency or a deficiency judgment. All remedies provided for by the Loan Documents
are separate and distinct causes of action that are not abrogated, modified, limited or otherwise affected by the remedies provided herein. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan Documents, the obligations pursuant to this Agreement are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provisions of the Loan Agreement. Indemnitor is fully
and personally liable for all such obligations. 
 9. Survival. The obligations and liabilities of
Indemnitor under this Agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Indebtedness. 
 10. Interest.
Any amounts payable to any Indemnified Parties under this Agreement shall become immediately due and payable on demand and, if not paid within thirty (30) days of such demand, shall bear interest at the lesser of (a) the Default Rate (as
defined in the Loan Agreement) or (b) the maximum interest rate which the Indemnitor may by law pay or the Indemnified Parties may charge and collect, from the date payment was due. 

11. Waivers. Indemnitor hereby waives (a) any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of its assets or
to cause Lender or the other Indemnified Parties to proceed against any of the security for the Loan before proceeding under this Agreement against Borrower; (b) all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to indemnitors or guarantors,
except any rights of subrogation which Borrower may have, provided that the indemnity provided for hereunder shall neither be contingent upon the existence of any such rights of subrogation nor

  
 ENVIRONMENTAL
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT – Page 8 

 
subject to any claims or defenses whatsoever which may be asserted in connection with the enforcement or attempted enforcement of such subrogation rights including, without limitation, any claim
that such subrogation rights were abrogated by any acts of any of the Indemnified Parties; (c) the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against or by any of the
Indemnified Parties; (d) notice of acceptance hereof and of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon; (e) presentment for payment, demand of payment, protest or (unless expressly required hereby) notice of nonpayment or failure to
perform or observe, or other proof, or notice or demand; and (f) all homestead exemption rights against the obligations hereunder and the benefits of any statutes of limitations or repose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Indemnitor shall postpone the exercise of any rights of subrogation with respect to any collateral securing the Loan until the Loan shall have been repaid in full. No delay by any Indemnified Party in exercising any right, power or privilege
under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right. 
 12. Subrogation.
Indemnitor shall take any and all reasonable actions, including institution of legal action against third parties, necessary or appropriate to obtain reimbursement, payment or compensation from such Persons responsible for any liability arising out
of the presence of any Hazardous Substances at, in, on or under the Property or otherwise obligated by law to bear the cost. The Indemnified Parties shall be and hereby are subrogated to all of the rights of Indemnitor now or hereafter in such
claims. 
 13. Representations and Warranties. Indemnitor jointly and severally represents and warrants
that: 
 (a) Indemnitor has the full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
and to perform its obligations hereunder; the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Indemnitor has been duly and validly authorized; and all requisite action has been taken by Indemnitor to make this Agreement valid and binding
upon Indemnitor; 
 (b) Indemnitor’s execution of, and compliance with, this Agreement is in
the ordinary course of business of Indemnitor and will not result in the breach of any term or provision of the certificate of limited liability company, certificate of incorporation, limited liability company agreement, charter, by-laws,
partnership or trust agreement, or other governing instrument of Indemnitor or result in the breach of any term or provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement,
indenture or loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which Borrower or the Property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which Borrower or the Property is subject; 

(c) to the best of Indemnitor’s knowledge, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or threatened against Borrower which, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, may result in a Material Adverse Effect, or which would draw into question the validity of this Agreement or of any action taken or to be taken in
connection with the obligations of Indemnitor contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of Borrower to perform under the terms of this Agreement; 

  
 ENVIRONMENTAL

or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every covenant contained in this Agreement;

(f) this Agreement constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of Indemnitor. 

14. No Waiver. No delay by any Indemnified Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement
shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right.

 (b) cooperate fully and in good faith with the preparation, completion,
execution and delivery of any Disclosure Document containing such information with respect to the Borrower Group, the Property and the Loan as may be customary for private or public offerings (as applicable) of securities similar to the Certificates

Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request (i) representation and warranty to the Lender if such Significant Obligor is an Affiliate of any of the parties specified under Item 1119(a) of Regulation AB or has an ongoing
relationship, agreement, arrangement, transaction or other understanding as specified in Item 1119(b) of Regulation AB and (ii) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating income, required under Item 1112(b)(1)
of Regulation AB, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together 

  
 MORTGAGE LOAN
COOPERATION AGREEMENT – Page 3 

 
with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization
and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or
expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization or (iii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans
as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a
Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization. Such financial data or financial statements shall be
furnished to Lender (A) within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Lender in connection with the preparation of Disclosure Documents for the Securitization, (B) not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal
quarter of Borrower and (C) not later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to furnish financial data or financial statements
pursuant to clauses (B) or (C) of this sentence with respect to any period for which a filing pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with or relating to the Securitization (an “Exchange Act Filing”) is not required. If
requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish to Lender financial data and/or financial statements for any tenant of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, with respect to such tenant or group of Affiliated
tenants, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization such that such tenant or group of Affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor. 

(ii) All financial data and financial statements provided by Borrower hereunder pursuant to
Section 2(b)(i) hereof shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, and shall meet the requirements of Regulation AB and other applicable legal requirements. All financial statements referred to in Section 2(b)(i) above
shall be audited by independent accountants of Borrower acceptable to Lender in accordance with Regulation AB and all other applicable legal requirements, shall be accompanied by the manually executed report of the independent accountants
thereon, which report shall meet the requirements of Regulation AB and all other applicable legal requirements, and shall be further accompanied by a manually executed written consent of the independent accountants, in form and substance
acceptable to Lender, to the inclusion of such financial statements in any Disclosure Document and any Exchange Act Filing and to the use of the name of such independent accountants and the reference to such independent accountants as
“experts” in any Disclosure Document and Exchange Act Filing, all of which shall be provided at the same time as the related financial statements are required to be provided. All financial data and financial statements (audited or
unaudited) provided by Borrower under Section 2(b)(i) shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate, which shall state that such financial statements meet the requirements set forth in the first sentence of this
Section 2(b)(ii). 

  
 MORTGAGE LOAN
COOPERATION AGREEMENT – Page 4 

 (iii) If requested by Lender, Borrower and Sponsor shall
provide Lender, promptly upon request, with any other or additional financial statements, or financial, statistical or operating information, as Lender shall determine to be required pursuant to Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or
replacement thereto or other legal requirements in connection with any Disclosure Document or any Exchange Act Filing or as shall otherwise be reasonably requested by Lender. 

(iv) In the event Lender determines, in connection with a Securitization, that the financial data and
financial statements required in order to comply with Regulation AB or any amendment, modification or replacement thereto or other legal requirements are other than as provided herein, then notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 2(b)(ii) hereof, Lender may request, and Borrower and Sponsor shall promptly provide, such other financial data and financial statements as Lender determines to be necessary or appropriate for such compliance. 

(v) Any reports, statements or other information required to be delivered under this Agreement shall be
delivered in electronic form, sent via e-mail or disk as a Microsoft Excel file or, in the case of predominantly text documents, in Adobe .pdf format. Borrower agrees that Lender may disclose information regarding the Property and Borrower that is
provided to Lender pursuant to this Section 2(b)(v) in connection with the Securitization or any syndication of the Loan to such parties requesting such information in connection with such Securitization or syndication. 

(c) cooperate fully and in good faith with the preparation, completion, execution and delivery of an
auditor’s comfort letter and/or an agreed-upon procedures letter issued by auditors engaged by Lender regarding such financial statements or other financial, operating and statistical data of the Borrower Group and the Property set forth in the
Disclosure Document; 
 (d) permit to be performed such site inspections, appraisals, market
studies, structural engineering reports and Phase II environmental reports (if existing Phase I environmental reports recommend Phase II environmental reports), and other due diligence investigations, in each case as Lender reasonably
determines is necessary for legal disclosure or marketing purposes or to satisfy Rating Agency Requirements; 
 (e) if requested by Lender, participate (including senior management of Borrower) in meetings with Rating Agencies and/or banks and potential investors; 

(f) exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain estoppel letters reasonably satisfactory to Lender
from such parties as Lender may reasonably request; 

  
 MORTGAGE LOAN
COOPERATION AGREEMENT – Page 5 

 (g) replace the initial Note with two or more replacement
Notes in accordance with the Loan Agreement; or recast a portion of the Note into a mezzanine loan evidenced by one or more Notes, made to one or more newly-formed single-purpose equityholders of Borrower and any Single-Purpose Equityholder, and
secured by a collateral assignment of all equity interests in Borrower and any Single-Purpose Equityholder; or if a mezzanine loan was originated in connection with the closing of the Loan, reallocate the respective principal amounts and/or interest
rates of the Loan and such mezzanine loan; provided in each case that the aggregate principal balance and weighted average interest rates of the Notes immediately following the consummation of any such transaction shall be the same as immediately
prior thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein requiring that cooperation with Lender not result in any adverse effect on Borrower or Sponsor, the parties agree that (i) prepayments shall be applied among the components of the
Loan, including any mezzanine loan, on a pro-rata basis, unless there is an event of default, casualty or condemnation, in which case Lender shall be permitted to require that such amounts be applied sequentially, starting with the most senior
tranche, which may have the effect of increasing the weighted average interest rate of the Loan; and (ii) any new mezzanine loan shall have the same nonrecourse carveouts as the initial Loan, except that each mezzanine loan shall become fully
recourse to Sponsor in the event of a voluntary or collusive involuntary bankruptcy of any Borrower or any prohibited transfer or encumbrance of the Property or the collateral for the mezzanine loan; and 

(h) in connection with any sale of an interest in the Loan to a foreign banking institution, provide such
information regarding Borrower and Sponsor (and the entities or persons ultimately controlling and/or signing for Borrower and Sponsor) as may be required for regulatory purposes, including organizational documents, organizational charts, certified
balance sheets, and copies of drivers’ licenses of signatories. 
 Section 3. Consent to Disclosure;
Indemnification. 
 (a) Upon request, Borrower and Sponsor shall provide Lender with any
information in their possession, or which can be obtained by them, regarding the Borrower Group and the Property (including financial statements and updated budgets) which can be disclosed without violating any applicable law or breaching any
applicable confidentiality agreement, that, in the reasonable opinion of Lender, is necessary (for legal disclosure or marketing purposes) to (i) include in any Disclosure Documents, (ii) provide to the Rating Agencies or potential
purchasers of interests in the Loan, or (iii) include in any other operative documents relating to a Securitization (including, without limitation, information required in order to comply with Regulation AB promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933), participation or assignment. Each of Borrower and Sponsor hereby consents (on behalf of itself and the Borrower Group) to the inclusion in any Disclosure Document of any information (including financial statements) relating to the
Borrower Group, the Property or the Loan obtained by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in connection with the origination of the Loan. Upon request, Borrower and Sponsor shall provide Lender and any underwriter or
placement agent for any Certificates with written confirmation of the origin and/or accuracy and completeness of any such information. 

  
 MORTGAGE LOAN
COOPERATION AGREEMENT – Page 6 

 (b) Borrower and Sponsor shall carefully examine those
portions of any Disclosure Document provided to Borrower by Lender specifically pertaining to Borrower, Sponsor and the Property including, without limitation, any information incorporated therein by reference (the “Examined
Sections”) and shall, within three Business Days of Borrower’s receipt thereof, advise Lender in writing of any misstatement of a material fact or omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make
the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that if Borrower and Sponsor shall fail to respond within such three Business Day period, each of Borrower and Sponsor shall be
deemed to have approved (for its respective self and the Borrower Group) such Examined Sections as sent by Lender. For this purpose, Borrower and Sponsor shall be entitled to reasonably rely on third-party reports delivered in connection with the
Closing, including, without limitation, the Environmental Reports, Engineering Reports and Appraisals. 
 (c) Each of Borrower and Sponsor (collectively, the “Indemnifying Parties”) hereby indemnifies, on a joint and several basis, with respect to each Examined Sections of any Disclosure
Documents (and any amendment or supplement thereto, provided that any such amendment or supplement has been provided to Borrower and Sponsor for their review pursuant to Section 3(b)) or the failure to provide any information required to
be provided hereunder, each of (1) Depositor, (2) Lender, (3) The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and each of their affiliates (collectively, “Goldman”), (4) any underwriter or placement
agent of the Certificates and each of their respective affiliates (collectively, “Underwriters”; and, together with Depositor, Lender, Goldman, and each of their (including each Underwriter’s) respective officers, directors and
each Person who controls any of them within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and each, an “Indemnified Party”) for any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities to which any of the Indemnified Parties become
subject insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Examined Sections, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein (or necessary in order to make the statements in such portions in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading) (collectively, the
“Liabilities”). Each of Borrower and Sponsor hereby agrees, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Indemnified Parties for any reasonable legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by any of the
Indemnified Parties, as they are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending against the Liabilities. 
 In connection with Exchange Act Filings, the Indemnifying Parties jointly and severally agree to (i) indemnify the Indemnified Parties for (a) Liabilities to which any such Indemnified Party may
become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in the information provided hereunder, or the omission or alleged omission to state in the information
provided hereunder a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the information provided hereunder, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (b) any failure to
provide information required to be provided hereunder, and (ii) reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party, as they are incurred, in connection with defending or investigating the
Liabilities. 

  
 MORTGAGE LOAN
COOPERATION AGREEMENT – Page 7 

 (d) The indemnification contained in
Section 3(c) is in addition to any liability which Borrower and/or Sponsor may otherwise have under the Loan Documents and shall be self-operative without any further act or instrument (but in no event shall such indemnification extend
to any matter with respect to which Borrower or Sponsor has timely submitted comments in accordance with Section 3(b) to the extent that any such comments are not incorporated into the applicable Disclosure Document). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, each of Borrower and Sponsor shall, if requested by Lender, deliver within three Business Days of request therefor an indemnification certificate (i) certifying that they have carefully examined the Examined Sections and that such
Examined Sections do not, as of the date of such certificate, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated in such portions or necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) indemnifying, jointly and severally, each of the Indemnified Parties from the Liabilities, and (iii) agreeing, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Indemnified Parties for
any reasonable legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties, as they are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending against the Liabilities. 

(e) If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which
indemnity may be sought against Borrower and/or Sponsor, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify Borrower. 
 (f) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided in this Section 3 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by any
Indemnified Party in respect of any Liabilities (or action in respect thereof), each of Borrower and Sponsor, jointly and severally, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities (or action
in respect thereof), including reasonable legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same; provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are
entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the relative knowledge of, and access to, information concerning the matter with respect to which a claim was asserted of the Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, and of the Borrower
Group on the other hand; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission; (iii) the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, and the Borrower Group, on the other, in connection with the statements
that resulted in such Liabilities, relative fault being determined by, among other things, whether the statement or omission with respect to which a claim was asserted relates to information provided by the Borrower Group or the Indemnified Parties;
and (iv) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. Each of Borrower and Sponsor hereby agrees that it may not be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation.

of such entity is equal to or greater than $2,000,000 (collectively, the criteria under subparagraphs (i) and (ii) sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Minimum Financial Criteria”) and (iii) such entity is

the Minimum Financial Criteria. At any point in time Carter Validus no longer satisfies the Minimum Financial Criteria, Carter and Associates shall again be liable hereunder. For purposes of this Section, (a) “Net Worth”
shall mean, as of a given date, (x) the total assets of Carter Validus as of such date less (y) Carter Validus’ total liabilities as of such date, determined in accordance with GAAP and (b) “Liquidity” shall mean
unencumbered cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of Carter Validus, each valued in accordance with GAAP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the determination of Carter Validus’ Net Worth and Liquidity shall specifically exclude the
value of the Property.

ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
