A. Borrower and Lender entered into that certain Master Credit Facility Agreement dated as of August 22, 2002 (the “Original Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender agreed to make credit available to Borrower under the terms and conditions set forth in the Original Agreement.

B. Borrower and Lender amended and restated the Original Agreement in its entirety as set forth in that certain Amended and Restated Master Credit Facility Agreement dated as of December 10, 2003 (the “First Amended and Restated Agreement”), which First Amended and Restated Agreement was subsequently amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in that certain Second Amended and Restated Master Credit Facility Agreement dated as of March 30, 2004 (the “Second Amended and Restated Agreement”).

C. All of the Lender’s right, title and interest in the Original Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Agreement have been assigned to Fannie Mae pursuant to those certain Assignments of Collateral Agreements and Other Loan Documents, dated as of August 22, 2002, December 10, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively (together, the “Assignment”). Fannie Mae has not assumed any of the obligations of the Lender under the First Amended and Restated Agreement, the Second Amended and Restated Agreement or the Loan Documents as a result of the Assignment. Fannie Mae has designated the Lender as the servicer of the loans made under the Original Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Agreement. Lender is entering into this Agreement in its capacity as the originator of any Future Advances made hereunder and as the servicer of the loans set forth herein.

D. Pursuant to various amendments to the Original Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Agreement, among other things various Mortgaged Properties (each capitalized term used but not defined has the meaning ascribed to such term in Article 1 of this Agreement) were added to the Collateral Pool.

E. Borrower has requested that various terms and conditions of the Second Amended and Restated Agreement be modified. Borrower and Lender now wish to amend and restate the Second Amended and Restated Agreement in its entirety.

F. The REIT owns, directly and indirectly, ninety percent (90%) of the voting interests in OP.

G. Borrower owns Multifamily Residential Properties as more particularly described in Exhibit A to this Agreement.

J. Borrower intends to convert $50,000,000 of the Variable Facility Commitment to the Fixed Facility Commitment on March 1, 2010, which shall be reflected herein below.

M. The provisions herein shall become effective as of March 1, 2010, on which date each MBS backed by a Variable Advance Outstanding as of January 4, 2010 shall have rolled over. The Second Amended and Restated Agreement shall remain in effect until March 1, 2010.

Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, Lender agrees to make Variable Advances to Borrower from time to time during the applicable Variable Facility Availability Period. The aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Variable Advances Outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Variable Facility Commitment. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, Borrower may re-borrow any amounts under the Variable Facility which it has previously borrowed and repaid under the Variable Facility.

Section 2.02. Requests for Variable Advances.

Borrower shall request a Variable Advance by giving Lender a Future Advance Request in accordance with Section 5.02.

Section 2.03. Maturity Date of Variable Advances.

Regardless of the date on which a Variable Advance is made, the maturity date of each Variable Advance shall be a date selected by Borrower in its Request for the Variable Advance, which date shall be the last day of a calendar month occurring:

(a) no earlier than the date which completes three (3) full months after the Closing Date for the Variable Advance; and

(b) no later than the date which completes nine (9) full months after the Closing Date for the Variable Advance; provided that Borrower may request, and Lender may in its discretion consent, to an MBS term of one (1) or two (2) full months in order to facilitate a release, substitution or addition of Mortgaged Properties to the Collateral Pool (for a fee to be determined by Lender at the time of the maturity date of the Outstanding MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance). The entire unpaid amount of each Variable Advance shall be due and payable by the Borrower to the Lender on the maturity date of any Outstanding MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance unless, not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the maturity date of the Outstanding MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance, the Borrower has requested in writing either (i) that the maturing MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance be refinanced with a new MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance using the Rate Form or (ii) that the Variable Advance relating to the maturing MBS “backed” by the Variable Advance be converted to a Fixed Facility Advance pursuant to Section 3.07.

The proceeds of the Variable Advance made available by Lender to Borrower will equal the Price of the Variable Advance. Borrower shall pay to Lender, in advance of Lender making a Variable Advance requested by Borrower, the entire Discount for the Variable Advance.

(b) Partial Month Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.04, if a Variable Advance is not made on the first (1st) day of a calendar month, and the related MBS Issue Date for the MBS backed by the Variable Advance is the first (1st) day of the month following the month in which the Variable Advance is made, Borrower shall pay interest on the original stated principal amount of the Variable Advance for the partial month period commencing on the Closing Date for the Variable Advance and ending on the last day of the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the Coupon Rate for the Variable Advance as determined in accordance with Section 2.05(b) and (ii) a rate determined by Lender, based on Lender’s cost of funds and approved in advance, in writing, by Borrower, pursuant to the procedures mutually agreed upon by Borrower and Lender.

The Variable Facility Fee shall be payable in advance, in accordance with the terms of the Variable Facility Note. The first installment shall be payable on or prior to the Closing Date for the Variable Advance and shall apply to the first full calendar month of the MBS backed by the Variable Advance. Subsequent installments shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first day of the second full calendar month of such MBS, until the maturity of such MBS. Each installment of the Variable Facility Fee shall be in an amount equal to the product of multiplying (i) the Variable Facility Fee, by (ii) the amount of the Variable Advance, by (iii) one-twelfth (1/12).

Section 2.05. Coupon Rates for Variable Advances.

The Coupon Rate for a Variable Advance shall be a rate, per annum, as follows:

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.05, if a Variable Advance is not made on the first day of a calendar month, and the MBS Issue Date for the MBS backed by the Variable Advance is the first day of the month following the month in which the Variable Advance is made, the Coupon Rate for such Variable Advance for such period shall be the greater of (i) the rate for the Variable Advance determined in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.05 and (ii) a rate determined by Lender, based on Lender’s cost of funds, and approved in advance, in writing, by Borrower, pursuant to procedures mutually agreed upon by Borrower and Lender.

Section 2.06. Variable Facility Note.

The obligation of Borrower to repay the Variable Advances will be evidenced by the Variable Facility Note. The Variable Facility Note shall be payable to the order of Lender and shall be made in the amount of the Variable Facility Commitment.

Lender’s quote shall be based on (i) a solicitation of bids from institutional investors selected by Lender, in the case of a proposed Variable Advance or a Fixed Facility Advance with an MBS execution, or the rate quoted by Fannie Mae, in the case of a proposed Fixed Facility Advance with a cash execution, and (ii) the proposed terms and amount of the Advance selected by Borrower. The quote shall not be binding upon Lender.

(b) Rate Setting. If Borrower satisfies all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make the Advance in accordance with Article 5, then Borrower may request that Lender submit to Borrower a completed draft Rate Form in the form attached as Exhibit M to this Agreement (“Rate Form”). The draft Rate Form shall specify the proposed maximum interest rate for such Advance (“Maximum Annual Interest Rate”) and other terms set forth therein. If the draft Rate Form is approved by Borrower, Borrower shall execute and return the approved Rate Form to Lender before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Savings Time, as applicable, on any Business Day (“Rate Setting Date”).

(i) Variable Advances. In the case of Variable Advances, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of the Rate Form approved and executed by Borrower and upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make the Variable Advance, Lender shall solicit bids from institutional investors selected by Lender, based on the information in the Rate Form and, provided the actual Coupon Rate would be at or below the Maximum Annual Interest Rate, shall obtain a commitment (“MBS Commitment”) for the purchase of an MBS having the bid terms described in the related Rate Form. Lender shall then complete and sign the Rate Form thereby confirming the terms set forth therein and shall immediately deliver the Rate Form to Borrower to be countersigned.

(ii) Fixed Facility Advances with Cash Execution. In the case of Fixed Facility Advances with a cash execution, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of the draft Rate Form executed by Borrower and upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make such Advance (or for conversion, as applicable), Lender shall seek to obtain a commitment from Fannie Mae (“Cash Commitment”) for the purchase of the proposed Fixed Facility Advance having the terms described in the related draft Rate Form. If Lender obtains a Cash Commitment on terms equivalent (or better than) the terms in the draft Rate Form, Lender shall then complete and sign the Rate Form thereby confirming the terms set forth therein and shall immediately deliver the confirmed Rate Form to Borrower to be countersigned.

(iii) Fixed Facility Advances with MBS Execution. In the case of Fixed Facility Advances with an MBS execution, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of the Rate Form and upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to Lender’s obligation to make such Fixed Facility Advance (or for conversion, as applicable), Lender shall solicit bids from institutional investors selected by Lender based on the information in the Rate Form. If Lender obtains an MBS Commitment on terms equivalent (or better than) the terms in the draft Rate Form, Lender shall then complete and countersign the Rate Form thereby confirming the terms set forth therein, and shall immediately deliver by facsimile transmission the Rate Form to Borrower to be countersigned.

Section 4.02. Advance Confirmation Instrument for Variable Advances.

On or before the Closing Date for a Variable Advance, Borrower executes and delivers to Lender an instrument (“Advance Confirmation Instrument”), in the form attached as Exhibit O to this Agreement, confirming the amount, term, MBS Issue Date, MBS Delivery Date, MBS Imputed Interest Rate, Variable Facility Fee, Coupon Rate, Discount, Price and Closing Date for the Advance, and Borrower’s obligation to repay the Advance in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Agreement. Upon the funding of the Variable Advance, Lender shall note the date of funding in the appropriate space at the foot of the Advance Confirmation Instrument and deliver a copy of the completed Advance Confirmation Instrument to Borrower. Lender’s failure to do so shall not invalidate the Advance Confirmation Instrument or otherwise affect in any way any obligation of Borrower to repay Variable Advances in accordance with the Advance Confirmation Instrument, the Variable Facility Note or the other Loan Documents, but is merely meant to facilitate evidencing the date of funding and to confirm that the Advance Confirmation Instrument is not effective until the date of funding.

Section 4.03. Breakage and Other Costs.

In the event that Lender obtains an MBS Commitment or Cash Commitment and Lender fails to fulfill the MBS Commitment or Cash Commitment because the Advance is not made (or the conversion does not occur, as applicable) for a reason other than the default of Lender to make the Advance, Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs payable to the potential investor and other reasonable costs, fees and damages incurred by Lender in connection with its failure to fulfill the MBS Commitment or Cash Commitment. Lender reserves the right to require that Borrower post a deposit at the time the MBS Commitment or Cash Commitment is obtained.

(f) If required by Lender, for any Title Insurance Policy not containing a Revolving Credit Endorsement, the receipt by Lender of an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy, amending the effective date of the Title Insurance Policy to the Closing Date and showing no additional exceptions to coverage other than the exceptions shown on the last Closing Date with respect to which the Title Insurance Policy was endorsed, Permitted Liens, and other exceptions approved by Lender;

(g) If the Advance is a Variable Advance, the receipt by Lender of the first installment of Variable Facility Fee for the Variable Advance and the entire Discount for the Variable Advance payable by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.04;

(h) Receipt by Lender of a Cash Commitment or MBS Commitment, as applicable;

(j) If the Advance is a Variable Advance requiring a Hedge pursuant to the terms of Article 21, receipt by Lender at least five (5) days prior to the Closing Date for such Advance, of the confirmation of a Hedge commitment with respect to such Advance;

(k) If applicable, receipt by Lender of Hedge Documents effective as of the Closing Date;

(l) The satisfaction of all applicable General Conditions set forth in Article 11.

Section 5.04. Determination of Allocable Facility Amount and Valuations.

Lender has determined the initial Allocable Facility Amount and initial Valuation for each Initial Mortgaged Property on the Closing Date such Mortgaged Property was added to the Collateral Pool. Once each Calendar Quarter, within twenty (20) Business Days after Borrower has delivered to Lender the reports required in Section 13.04, Lender shall determine the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio. If Lender reasonably decides that changed market or property conditions warrant, Lender may (a) request an Appraisal of the relevant Mortgaged Properties and/or (b) determine new Allocable Facility Amounts and Valuations at any other times. Lender shall also redetermine Allocable Facility Amounts as necessary to take account of any addition, release or substitution of Collateral or other event which invalidates the outstanding determinations. Lender shall determine Cap Rates when determining Valuations on the basis of its internal survey and analysis of cap rates for comparable sales in the vicinity of the Mortgaged Property, with such adjustments as Lender deems appropriate and shall not be obligated to use any information provided by Borrower. Lender shall promptly disclose its determinations to Borrower. Until redetermined, the Allocable Facility Amounts and Valuations determined by Lender shall remain in effect. In performing a Valuation of a Multifamily Residential Property to be added to the Collateral Pool, Lender shall be entitled to obtain an Appraisal. Lender shall also have the right to obtain an Appraisal in connection with the redetermination of a Valuation of a Mortgaged Property, but only if Lender is unable to determine a Cap Rate for such Mortgaged Property and then only if Lender has not obtained an Appraisal for such Mortgaged Property within the prior year.

Section 5.05. Limitation on Advances.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Future Advance (other than a rollover of an MBS backed by a Variable Advance), whether a Variable Advance or a Fixed Facility Advance, and any conversion of an Advance or any refinance of an Advance shall be subject to the precondition that the Lender must confirm with Fannie Mae that Fannie Mae is generally offering to purchase in the marketplace Advances of the execution type requested by Borrower at the time of the Request and at the time of the Rate Setting Date for the requested Advance. In the event Fannie Mae is not purchasing Advances of the type requested by Borrower, Fannie Mae agrees to offer, to the extent available from Fannie Mae, alternative Advance executions based on the types of executions Fannie Mae is generally offering to purchase in the marketplace at that time. Any alternative execution offered would be subject to mutually agreeable documentation necessary to implement the terms and conditions of such alternative execution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the tests set forth above in Section 6.03(a) or the Geographical Diversification Requirements or Concentration Test are not satisfied after the addition of a proposed Additional Mortgaged Property, such addition may be permitted by Lender if the addition improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and results in improvement in one or both of the following areas: the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio exceed ninety percent (90%).

(b) The receipt by Lender of the Collateral Addition Fee, except as provided in Section 16.02(b), and all legal fees and expenses payable by Borrower in connection with the Collateral Addition pursuant to Section 16.04(b);

ARTICLE 7

RELEASES OF COLLATERAL

Section 7.01. Right to Obtain Releases of Collateral.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 7, Borrower shall have the right to obtain a release of Collateral from the Collateral Pool in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7.

Section 7.02. Procedure for Obtaining Releases of Collateral.

(a) Request. In order to obtain a release of Collateral from the Collateral Pool, Borrower may, not more than once each calendar month, deliver a written request for the release of Collateral from the Collateral Pool (“Collateral Release Request”) to Lender, in the form attached as Exhibit T to this Agreement. The Collateral Release Request shall not result in a termination of all or any part of the Credit Facility. Borrower may only terminate all or any part of the Credit Facility by delivering a Variable Facility Termination Request or Credit Facility Termination Request pursuant to Article 9 or Article 10. The Collateral Release Request shall be accompanied by (and shall not be effective unless it is accompanied by) the name, address and location of the Mortgaged Property to be released from the Collateral Pool (“Collateral Release Property”).

(b) Closing. If all conditions contained in Section 7.03 are satisfied, Lender shall cause the Collateral Release Property to be released from the Collateral Pool, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, and occurring within thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt of the Collateral Release Request (or on such other date to which Borrower and Lender may agree, by executing and delivering, and causing all applicable parties to execute and deliver, all at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, instruments, in the form customarily used by Lender for releases in the jurisdiction governing the perfection of the security interest being released, releasing the applicable Security Instrument as a Lien on the Collateral Release Property, and UCC-3 Termination Statements terminating the UCC-1 Financing Statements perfecting a Lien on the portion of the Collateral Release Property comprised of personal property and such other documents and instruments as Borrower may reasonably request evidencing the release of the applicable Collateral from any lien securing the Obligations (including a termination of any restriction on the use of any accounts relating to the Collateral Release Property) and the release and return to Borrower of any and all escrowed amounts relating thereto. The instruments referred to in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Article 7 as the “Collateral Release Documents.” At Lender’s option, Borrower shall prepare the Collateral Release Documents and submit them to Lender for its review.

(c) Release Price. The “Release Price” for each Mortgaged Property means (i) during the period Section 22.01(a) of this Agreement is in effect the greater of (A) the Allocable Facility Amount for the Mortgaged Property to be released and (B) the amount, if any, of Advances Outstanding which are required to be repaid by Borrower to Lender in connection with the proposed release of the Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool, so that, immediately after the release, subject to the provisions of Section 7.03(a), the Coverage and LTV Tests will be satisfied and neither the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratios for the Trailing 12 Month Period will be reduced nor the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period will be increased as a result of such release and (ii) at all times after Section 22.01(a) of this Agreement is no longer in effect the greater of (A) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Allocable Facility Amount for the Mortgaged Property to be released and (B) the amount, if any, of Advances Outstanding which are required to be repaid by Borrower to Lender in connection with the proposed release of the Mortgaged Property from the Collateral Pool, so that, immediately after the release, subject to the provisions of Section 7.03(a), the Coverage and LTV Tests will be satisfied and neither the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratios for the Trailing 12 Month Period will be reduced nor the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period will be increased as a result of such release. In addition to the Release Price, Borrower shall pay to Lender all associated prepayment premiums and other amounts due under the Notes and any Advance Confirmation Instruments evidencing the Advances being repaid.

(d) Application of Release Price. Notwithstanding the terms in any Note, the application of any amount received from Borrower that is less than all amounts due and payable shall be applied as follows:

(i) The Release Price for the Collateral Release Property shall be applied in the order selected by Borrower, provided that (A) any amount of the Outstanding Advances which Borrower elects to prepay must be prepaid in full, or if the Release Price is not sufficient to do so, the amount of the Outstanding Advances shall be only partially prepaid; (B) any prepayment is permitted under the applicable Note; (C) any prepayment premium due and owing is paid; and (D) interest must be paid through the end of the month for a Fixed Facility Advance Outstanding and further, with respect to a Variable Advance Outstanding, for the entire term of the Variable Advance Outstanding.

(ii) If Borrower does not give Lender direction with respect to the application of the Release Price or if such direction does not comply with the provisions of 7.02(d)(i) above, then the Release Price shall be applied:

(A) First, against any Variable Advance Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the Variable Facility Note and this Agreement (and any prepayment premium due and owing is paid), until any Variable Advance is no longer Outstanding (provided that, in the event there are multiple Variable Advances Outstanding, Lender shall determine the order of application of the Release Price taking into account factors including the unpaid principal balance of the Variable Advance, and which Variable Advance Outstanding has the lowest prepayment costs or highest interest rate); and

(B) then against any Fixed Facility Advance Outstanding so long as the prepayment is permitted under the applicable Fixed Note (and any prepayment premium due and owing is paid) (provided that, in the event there are multiple Fixed Facility Advances Outstanding, Lender shall determine the order of application of the Release Price taking into account factors including the unpaid principal balances of the Fixed Notes, and which Fixed Note Outstanding has the lowest prepayment costs or the highest interest rate).

(iii) In the event Borrower desires to release a Collateral Release Property on a date other than the last Business Day of the month and apply the Release Price to a Fixed Facility Advance Outstanding, or on a date other than a rollover date for the Variable Advance Outstanding and apply the Release Price to the Variable Advance Outstanding, the Release Price or the remainder of the Release Price, if any, shall be held by Lender (or its appointed collateral agent) in an interest bearing account in the name of Lender in Permitted Investments as substitute Collateral (“Substitute Cash Collateral”), in accordance with a security agreement (if required by Lender) and other documents in form and substance acceptable to Lender. Any portion of the Release Price held as Substitute Cash Collateral may be released if, immediately after giving effect to the release, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7.03(a) below shall have been satisfied. Any Substitute Cash Collateral shall be applied, as applicable, on the last Business Day of the month or the rollover date as described above, in the order provided in Section 7.02(d) above.

Section 7.03. Conditions Precedent to Release of Collateral Release Property from the Collateral.

The obligation of Lender to release a Collateral Release Property from the Collateral Pool by executing and delivering the Collateral Release Documents on the Closing Date, are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on or before the Closing Date:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the tests set forth above in this (a) or the Geographical Diversification Requirements or Concentration Test are not satisfied after the release of a Mortgaged Property, such release may be permitted by Lender if the release improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and results in improvement in one or both of the following areas: the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio.

(b) Receipt by Lender of the Release Price;

(c) Receipt by Lender of the Release Fee for the Collateral Release Property and all legal fees and expenses payable by Borrower in connection with the release pursuant to Section 16.04(b);

(f) If Lender determines the Collateral Release Property to be one phase of a project, and one or more other phases of the project are Mortgaged Properties which will remain in the Collateral Pool (“Remaining Mortgaged Properties”), Lender must determine that the Remaining Mortgaged Properties can be operated separately from the Collateral Release Property and any other phases of the project which are not Mortgaged Properties. In making this determination, Lender shall evaluate whether the Remaining Mortgaged Properties comply with the Lender’s Underwriting Requirements, which, as of the date of this Agreement, require, among other things, that a phase which constitutes collateral for a loan made in accordance with the Underwriting Requirements (i) have adequate ingress and egress to existing public roadways, either by location of the phase on a dedicated, all-weather road or by access to such a road by means of a satisfactory easement, (ii) have access which is sufficiently attractive and direct from major thoroughfares to be conducive to continued good marketing, (iii) have a location which is not (A) inferior to other phases, (B) such that inadequate maintenance of other phases would have a significant negative impact on the phase, and (C) such that the phase is visible only after passing through the other phases of the project and (iv) comply with such other issues as are dictated by prudent practice;

(g) Receipt by Lender of endorsements to the Tie-In Endorsements of the Title Insurance Policies, if deemed necessary by Lender, to reflect the release;

(h) Receipt by Lender on the Closing Date of a writing, dated as of the Closing Date, signed by Borrower, in the form attached as Exhibit U to this Agreement, pursuant to which Borrower confirms that its obligations under the Loan Documents are not adversely affected by the release of the Collateral Release Property from the Collateral;

(j) The satisfaction of all applicable General Conditions set forth in Article 11;

(k) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 7.03, no release of any of the Mortgaged Properties shall be made unless Borrower has provided title insurance, taking into account Tie-In Endorsements, to Lender in respect of each of the remaining Mortgaged Properties in the Collateral Pool in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Initial Valuation of each of such remaining Mortgaged Properties;

(l) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 7.03, at no time shall the Collateral Pool consist solely of the Mortgaged Property commonly known as Brier Creek Phase I.

Section 7.04. Substitutions.

(a) Right to Substitute Collateral. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Section 7.04 and Article 7, Borrower shall have the right, from time to time during the Term of this Agreement, to add one (1) or more Multifamily Residential Properties to the Collateral Pool in substitution of one (1) or more Mortgaged Properties then in the Collateral Pool in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.04 (“Substituted Mortgaged Property”).

(b) Procedure for Substituting Collateral.

(i) Request. Borrower may deliver a written request (“Collateral Substitution Request”) to Lender, in the form attached as Exhibit Z to this Agreement, to add one (1) or more Multifamily Residential Properties to the Collateral Pool in substitution of one (1) or more Mortgaged Properties then in the Collateral Pool. Each Collateral Substitution Request shall be accompanied by the following:

(A) The information relating to the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property required by the form attached as Exhibit DD to this Agreement (“Collateral Substitution Description Package”), as amended from time to time to comply with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements;

(B) The payment of all Additional Collateral Due Diligence Fees pursuant to Section 16.03(b).

(C) A statement whether the addition of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property will occur simultaneously with the release of the proposed Collateral Release Property and, if not, Borrower shall specify the proposed date on which the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property will be added to the Collateral Pool which, in no event, shall be a date which is more than ninety (90) days after the proposed date of the release of the proposed Collateral Release Property.

(ii) Additional Information. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender any additional information concerning the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property and the proposed Collateral Release Property that Lender may from time to time reasonably request.

(iii) Underwriting.

(A) Lender shall evaluate the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, and shall make underwriting determinations as to (1) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratios and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to the proposed substitution, and (2) the Valuation and the Net Operating Income for the Trailing 12 Month Period for both the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property and the proposed Collateral Release Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of making such underwriting determinations with respect to the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, such determinations shall be made on the basis of a Valuation made with respect to the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, and otherwise in accordance with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements, including applicable underwriting floors.

(B) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of (1) the Collateral Substitution Request for the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property and the proposed Collateral Release Property and (2) all reports, certificates and documents set forth on Exhibit EE to this Agreement, including a zoning analysis undertaken in accordance with the Underwriting Requirements, Lender shall notify Borrower whether or not the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property meets the Coverage and LTV Tests and Underwriting Requirements required by this Section 7.04(b)(iii), and therefore whether or not it shall consent to the addition of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool in substitution of the proposed Collateral Release Property and, if it shall so consent, shall set forth the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratios and the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio which it estimates shall result from the substitution of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Collateral Release Property.

(C) If the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property does not meet the Coverage and LTV Tests and Underwriting Requirements required by this Section 7.04(b)(iii), and therefore Lender does not consent to the substitution of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Collateral Release Property, Lender shall include, in its notice, a brief statement of the reasons for doing so. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Lender’s notice that it shall consent to the substitution of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Collateral Release Property, Borrower shall notify Lender whether or not they elect to cause such substitution to occur. If Borrower fails to respond within the period of five (5) Business Days, they shall be conclusively deemed to have elected not to cause the proposed substitution to occur.

(iv) Closing. If, pursuant to this Section 7.04, Lender consents to the substitution of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Collateral Release Property, Borrower timely elects to cause such substitution to occur and all conditions contained in Section 7.04(c) are satisfied, Lender shall permit the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property to be substituted into the Collateral Pool in replacement of the proposed Collateral Release Property, at a closing to be held at offices designated by Lender on a Closing Date selected by Lender, and occurring —

(A) if the substitution of the proposed Substituted Collateral Property is to occur simultaneously with the release of the proposed Collateral Release Property, within thirty (30) days after Lender’s receipt of Borrower’s election (or on such other date to which Borrower and Lender may agree); or

(B) if the substitution of the proposed Substituted Collateral Property is to occur subsequent to the release of the Collateral Release Property, within ninety (90) days after the release of the Collateral Release Property (the “Property Delivery Deadline”) (provided such date may be extended an additional ninety (90) days if Borrower provides evidence satisfactory to Lender of Borrower’s diligent efforts in finding a suitable proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property) in accordance with Section 7.02(c).

If, in the case of clause (B), the addition of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool does not occur within ninety (90) days or such longer period as approved by Lender, in its sole discretion, after the release of the Collateral Release Property in accordance with such clause (B), then Borrower shall have waived its right to substitute such Collateral Release Property with the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, the Release Price shall be determined pursuant to Section 7.02(c) and Borrower shall comply with the requirement set forth in Section 7.03. Such Release Price, or the applicable portion thereof, shall be credited under this Agreement and/or be immediately due and payable by Borrower to Lender to reduce the Advances Outstanding as required by, and in the manner set forth in, Section 7.02(d).

(c) Conditions Precedent to Substitution of a Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool. The substitution of a Substituted Mortgaged Property into the Collateral Pool in replacement of a Collateral Release Property on the Closing Date is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the tests set forth above in this Section 7.04(c)(i) or the Geographical Diversification Requirements or Concentration Test are not satisfied after the substitution of a proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, such substitution may be permitted by Lender if the substitution improves the Collateral Pool based on factors that are consistent with Lender’s Underwriting Requirements and results in improvement in one or more of the following areas: the then current Valuation of the Mortgaged Properties, the then current Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio, or the then current Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio.

(ii) Lender shall have made the determination, as a part of the underwriting evaluations made in accordance with Section 7.04(b)(iii), that provided that the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period immediately prior to and after the substitution is less than one hundred sixty-five percent (165%), (A) the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period immediately after giving effect to the proposed substitution will be equal to or higher than the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period immediately prior to the proposed substitution, and (B) the Aggregate Loan to Value Ratio immediately after giving effect to the proposed substitution will be equal to or less than the Aggregate Loan to Ratio immediately prior to giving effect to the proposed substitution;

(iii) With respect to the release of the proposed Collateral Release Property, Borrower shall have complied with Section 7.03 (other than clause (b) with respect to the requirement pertaining to Release Price);

(iv) The receipt by Lender of the Collateral Substitution Fee and all legal fees and expenses payable by Borrower in connection with the substitution pursuant to Section 16.04(b);

(v) The delivery to the Title Company, with fully executed instructions directing the Title Company to file and/or record in all applicable jurisdictions, all applicable Collateral Substitution Loan Documents required by Lender, including duly executed and delivered original copies of any Security Instruments and UCC-1 Financing Statements covering the portion of the Substituted Mortgaged Property comprised of personal property, and other appropriate documents, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender and in form proper for recordation, as may be necessary in the opinion of Lender to perfect the Lien created by the applicable additional Security Instrument, and any other Collateral Substitution Loan Document creating a Lien in favor of Lender, and the payment of all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection with such execution, delivery, recording and filing;

(vi) If required by Lender, amendments to the Notes and the Security Instruments, reflecting the addition of the Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool and, as to any Security Instrument so amended, the receipt by Lender of an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the Security Instrument, amending the effective date of the Title Insurance Policy to the Closing Date and showing no additional exceptions to coverage other than Permitted Liens;

(vii) If the Title Insurance Policy for the Substituted Mortgaged Property contains a Tie-In Endorsement, and endorsement to each other Title Insurance Policy containing a Tie-In Endorsement, adding a reference to the Substituted Mortgaged Property;

(viii) The delivery to Lender of additional collateral or the repayment of Advances Outstanding to the extent required pursuant to Section 7.04(d); and

(ix) The satisfaction of all General Conditions set forth in Article 11.

(d) Substitution Deposit.

(i) The Deposit. If the Addition of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property is to occur subsequent to the release of the Collateral Release Property pursuant to Section 7.04(b), at the Closing Date of the release of the Collateral Release Property, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the “Substitution Deposit” described in Section 7.04(d)(ii) in the form of cash or, in lieu of (and/or in addition to) depositing cash for the Substitution Deposit, Borrower may post a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of Section 7.05 of this Agreement, having a face amount equal to the Substitution Deposit (or such lesser amount that has been deposited in cash). Funds deposited in cash shall be invested and reinvested by it in the name of Lender in Permitted Investments.

(ii) Substitution Deposit Amount. The “Substitution Deposit” for each proposed Substitution shall be an amount equal to the sum of:

(A) the Release Price relating to the Collateral Release Property, plus

(B) any and all of the yield maintenance, fee maintenance or the prepayment premium, as applicable, through (1) for Fixed Facility Advances, the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs as if the Release Price relating to the Collateral Release Property were to be prepaid in such month and (2) for Variable Advances, the next rollover date for such Variable Advance (provided that a Variable Facility Note for a Variable Advance shall be deemed paid or partially paid, as applicable, as of the next maturity date of the MBS backed by a Variable Advance after the Property Delivery Deadline) as if the Release Price relating to the Collateral Release Property were to be prepaid at the next rollover date, plus

(C) for any Fixed Facility Advance, interest on all or a portion of the applicable Advance relating to the Release Price through the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline occurs. Borrower shall also be obligated to make any regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due under all Notes Outstanding during any period between the closing of the Collateral Release Property and the earlier of the closing of the Substituted Mortgaged Property and the date of prepayment of all or a portion of the Note relating to the Release Price, plus

(D) costs, expenses and fees of Lender pertaining to the substitution (the “Substitution Cost Deposit”). The Substitution Cost Deposit shall be used by Lender to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Fannie Mae, including any out-of-pocket reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Fannie Mae and Lender in connection with such substitution whether or not such substitution actually closes.

If a substitution of the last remaining asset is taking place and the amounts in (A), (B) and (C) above are not sufficient to pay off the full amount owing under the Notes Outstanding, then the cash collateral or Letter of Credit must include (1) any yield maintenance that would be due to the extent that the Fixed Facility Notes must be prepaid to effect a release at that time, and (2) the Facility Termination Fee that would be due to the extent that the Variable Facility Note must be prepaid to effect a release at that time, and (3) the full amount of the principal and interest owing under all Notes Outstanding;

With respect to the Substitution Deposit, in determining which Notes shall be prepaid, the order of application shall be governed by Section 7.02(d).

(iii) Failure to Close Substitution. If the Addition of the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property does not occur by the Property Delivery Deadline in accordance with Section 7.04(b), then such Borrower shall have irrevocably waived its right to substitute such Collateral Release Property with the proposed Substituted Mortgaged Property, and the release of the Collateral Release Property shall be deemed to be a release pursuant to Section 7.02 and shall trigger a prepayment of the Notes, together with all yield maintenance, fee maintenance or prepayment premium then due in connection with such payment. Any Advances being prepaid shall be deemed to be prepaid (A) as of the end of the month in which the Property Delivery Deadline falls with respect to a Fixed Facility Advance, and (B) as of the next rollover date with respect to a Variable Advance. In such event, Borrower shall pay Lender all amounts that would be payable under Section 7.02 upon such a release and prepayment, and such payment shall be applied in the manner prescribed for Release Prices pursuant to Section 7.02(c). The Substitution Deposit shall be retained by Lender and applied against such payment. Any portion of the Substitution Deposit not needed to make such payment shall be promptly refunded to the applicable Borrower after the Property Delivery Deadline.

(iv) Substitution Deposit Disbursement. At closing of the substitution, Lender shall disburse or return the Substitution Deposit, as applicable (less any portion of the Substitution Cost Deposit used by Lender to cover all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender and Fannie Mae, including any out-of-pocket reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Fannie Mae and Lender in connection with such substitution), directly to Borrower at such time as the conditions precedent for the Substitution have been satisfied, which must occur no later than the Property Delivery Deadline. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower adds a Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool prior to the Property Delivery Deadline but the Addition of such Additional Mortgaged Property has not in and of itself satisfied the requirements of Section 7.04(b), the Substitution Deposit shall be reduced by the Allocable Credit Facility Amount of such Additional Mortgaged Property as determined by Lender, and such reduction in the Substitution Deposit shall be returned to Borrower, or in the case of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall be reduced by such reduction in the Substitution Deposit. If Borrower has not completely satisfied the requirements to close the substitution by the Property Delivery Deadline, the terms of Section 7.04(d)(iii) shall apply with respect to the remaining Substitution Deposit.

(e) Restriction on Borrowings. If the Addition of the Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool and the release of the Collateral Release Property from the Collateral Pool do not occur simultaneously (i.e., within thirty (30) days), then, until the Addition of the Substituted Mortgaged Property to the Collateral Pool, no Future Advance will be permitted except and unless after the release of the Collateral Release Property all conditions of Section 7.03 have been satisfied.

(iii) upon the downgrading of the ratings of the long-term or short-term debt obligations of the Issuer below a level satisfactory to Fannie Mae; provided that Borrower shall have fifteen (15) days after written notice of such downgrading to deliver to Lender either (A) an acceptable replacement Letter of Credit or (B) Substitute Cash Collateral in the amount required by Lender.

Section 12.02. Representations and Warranties of Borrower.

Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender as follows with respect to each of the Mortgaged Properties:

(a) Title. Borrower has good, valid, marketable and indefeasible title to each Mortgaged Property (either in fee simple or as tenant under a ground lease meeting all of Lender’s Underwriting Requirements), free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Liens. Each Security Instrument, if and when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create a valid, perfected first lien on the Mortgaged Property intended to be encumbered thereby (including the Leases related to such Mortgaged Property and the rents and all rights to collect rents under such Leases), subject only to Permitted Liens. Except for any Permitted Liens, there are no Liens or claims for work, labor or materials affecting any Mortgaged Property which are or may be prior to, subordinate to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Permitted Liens do not have, and may not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Impositions. Borrower has filed all property and similar tax returns required to have been filed by it with respect to each Mortgaged Property and has paid and discharged, or caused to be paid and discharged, all installments for the payment of all Taxes due to date, and all other material Impositions imposed against, affecting or relating to each Mortgaged Property other than those which have not become due, together with any fine, penalty, interest or cost for nonpayment pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by it, provided, however, that if Borrower contests in good faith and by appropriate proceeding the validity or applicability of any Imposition, provides to Lender security in such amount and in such form as Lender may reasonably require, then compliance with the Imposition in question shall be suspended during the pendency of such contest. Borrower has no knowledge of any new proposed Tax, levy or other governmental or private assessment or charge in respect of any Mortgaged Property which has not been disclosed in writing to Lender.

(c) Zoning. Each Mortgaged Property complies in all material respects with all Applicable Laws affecting such Mortgaged Property. Without limiting the foregoing, all material Permits, including certificates of occupancy, to the extent issued by the relevant jurisdiction, have been issued and are in full force and effect. Neither Borrower nor, to the knowledge of Borrower, any former owner of any Mortgaged Property, has received any written notification or threat of any actions or proceedings regarding the noncompliance or nonconformity of any Mortgaged Property with any Applicable Laws or Permits, nor is Borrower otherwise aware of any such pending actions or proceedings.

(d) Leases. Borrower has delivered to Lender a true and correct copy of their form apartment lease for each Mortgaged Property (and, with respect to leases executed prior to the date on which Borrower first owned the Mortgaged Property, the form apartment lease used for such leases), and each Lease with respect to such Mortgaged Property is in the form thereof, with no material modifications thereto, except as previously disclosed in writing to Lender. Except as set forth in a Rent Roll, no Lease for any unit in any Mortgaged Property (i) is for a term in excess of one (1) year, including any renewal or extension period unless such renewal or extension period is subject to termination by Borrower upon not more than thirty (30) days’ written notice, (ii) provides for prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, or (iii) was entered into in other than the ordinary course of business.

(e) Rent Roll. Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender a Rent Roll for each Mortgaged Property, each dated as of and delivered within thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date. Each Rent Roll sets forth each and every unit subject to a Lease which is in full force and effect as of the date of such Rent Roll. The information set forth on each Rent Roll is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of its date and there has occurred no material adverse change in the information shown on any Rent Roll from the date of each such Rent Roll to the Closing Date. Except as disclosed in the Rent Roll with respect to each Mortgaged Property or otherwise previously disclosed in writing to Lender, no Lease is in effect as of the date of the Rent Roll with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(f) Status of Landlord under Leases. Except for any assignment of leases and rents which is a Permitted Lien or which is to be released in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Borrower is the owner and holder of the landlord’s interest under each of the Leases of units in each Mortgaged Property and there are no prior outstanding assignments of any such Lease, or any portion of the rents, additional rents, charges, issues or profits due and payable or to become due and payable thereunder.

(g) Enforceability of Leases. Each Lease constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower and, to the knowledge of Borrower, of each of the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject only to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally, and equitable principles, and except as disclosed in writing to Lender, no notice of any default by Borrower which remains uncured has been sent by any tenant under any such Lease, other than defaults which do not have, and are not reasonably expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect on the Mortgaged Property subject to the Lease.

(h) No Lease Options. All premises demised to tenants under Leases are occupied by such tenants as tenants only. No Lease contains any option or right to purchase, right of first refusal or any other similar provisions. No option or right to purchase, right of first refusal, purchase contract or similar right exists with respect to any Mortgaged Property.

(i) Insurance. Borrower has delivered to Lender true and correct certified copies of all Insurance Policies currently in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to the Mortgaged Property which it owns. Each such Insurance Policy complies in all material respects with the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents.

(j) Tax Parcels. Each Mortgaged Property is on one (1) or more separate tax parcels, and each such parcel (or parcels) is (or are) separate and apart from any other property.

(k) Encroachments. Except as disclosed on the Survey with respect to each Mortgaged Property, none of the improvements located on any Mortgaged Property encroaches upon the property of any other Person or upon any easement encumbering the Mortgaged Property, nor lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of such Mortgaged Property and no improvement located on property adjoining such Mortgaged Property lies within the boundaries of or in any way encroaches upon such Mortgaged Property.

(l) Independent Unit. Except for Permitted Liens and as disclosed on Exhibit BB to this Agreement, or as disclosed in a Title Insurance Policy or Survey for the Mortgaged Property, each Mortgaged Property is an independent unit which does not rely on any drainage, sewer, access, parking, structural or other facilities located on any Property not included either in such Mortgaged Property or on public or utility easements for the (i) fulfillment of any zoning, building code or other requirement of any Governmental Authority that has jurisdiction over such Mortgaged Property, (ii) structural support, or (iii) the fulfillment of the requirements of any Lease or other agreement affecting such Mortgaged Property. Borrower, directly or indirectly, has the right to use all amenities, easements, public or private utilities, parking, access routes or other items necessary or currently used for the operation of each Mortgaged Property. All public utilities are installed and operating at each Mortgaged Property and all billed installation and connection charges have been paid in full. Each Mortgaged Property is either (A) contiguous to or (B) benefits from an irrevocable unsubordinated easement permitting access from such Mortgaged Property to a physically open, dedicated public street, and has all necessary permits for ingress and egress and is adequately serviced by public water, sewer systems and utilities. No building or other improvement not located on a Mortgaged Property relies on any part of the Mortgaged Property to fulfill any zoning requirements, building code or other requirement of any Governmental Authority that has jurisdiction over the Mortgaged Property, for structural support or to furnish to such building or improvement any essential building systems or utilities.

(m) Condition of the Mortgaged Properties. Except as disclosed in any third party report delivered to Lender prior to the date on which Borrower’s Mortgaged Property is added to the Collateral Pool, or otherwise disclosed in writing by Borrower to Lender prior to such date, each Mortgaged Property is in good condition, order and repair, there exist no structural or other material defects in such Mortgaged Property (whether patent or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, latent or otherwise) and Borrower has not received notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in such Mortgaged Property, or any part of it, which would adversely affect the insurability of such Mortgaged Property or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges for insurance or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond. No claims have been made against any contractor, architect or other party with respect to the condition of any Mortgaged Property or the existence of any structural or other material defect therein. No Mortgaged Property has been materially damaged by casualty which has not been fully repaired or for which insurance proceeds have not been received or are not expected to be received except as previously disclosed in writing to Lender. There are no proceedings pending for partial or total condemnation of any Mortgaged Property except as disclosed in writing to Lender.

(a) by written notice to Borrower, to be effective upon dispatch, terminate the Commitment and declare the principal of, and interest on, the Advances and all other sums owing by Borrower to Lender under any of the Loan Documents forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Commitment will terminate and the principal of, and interest on, the Advances and all other sums owing by Borrower to Lender under any of the Loan Documents will become forthwith due and payable.

(b) Lender shall have the right to pursue any other remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents.

(c) Lender shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity, including obtaining specific performance and injunctive relief.

Lender shall have the right, to be exercised in its complete discretion, to waive any breach hereunder (including the occurrence of an Event of Default), by a writing setting forth the terms, conditions, and extent of such waiver signed by Lender and delivered to Borrower. Unless such writing expressly provides to the contrary, any waiver so granted shall extend only to the specific event or occurrence which gave rise to the waiver and not to any other similar event or occurrence which occurs subsequent to the date of such waiver.

Section 18.03. Lender’s Right to Protect Collateral and Perform Covenants and Other Obligations.

Section 21.01. Interest Rate Protection.

(a) Hedge Requirement. To protect against fluctuations in interest rates, Borrower shall make arrangements for a Hedge to be in place and maintained at all times with respect to the Hedge Requirement Amount. The Hedge for the Hedge Requirement Amount shall be in place for a period beginning on the date of the first Variable Advance from the Hedge Requirement Amount and ending not earlier than the date which is the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Initial Closing Date (the “Initial Hedge Period”).

Subject to the terms of Article 21, additional Hedges (each a “Subsequent Hedge”) shall be required (i) upon the expiration of the Hedge in place for the Initial Hedge Period and (ii) if and at such times as a new Variable Advance is funded that is part of the Hedge Requirement Amount, such Subsequent Hedge to be in effect for a period beginning on the day of the expiration of the Hedge in place for the Initial Hedge Period or on the Closing Date of the Future Advance Request, as the case may be, and ending on a date acceptable to the Lender. It is the intention of the parties that the Borrower shall obtain, and shall maintain at all times during the term of this Agreement so long as any Variable Advance is Outstanding with respect to the Hedge Requirement Amount, a Hedge or Hedges in an aggregate notional principal amount equal to the Variable Advances Outstanding that are part of the Hedge Requirement Amount and covering the entire term of the Variable Facility Commitment as set forth on the Summary of Credit Facility Structure and meeting the conditions set forth in Section 21.02.

Section 21.02. Hedge Terms.

Each Hedge shall:

(a) provide for a notional principal amount at all times equal to or greater than the Variable Advances Outstanding that are part of the Hedge Requirement Amount;

(b) [intentionally deleted];

(c) in the case of Swaps, provide for a notional interest rate required to achieve a 1.40 Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period based upon a thirty (30) year amortization period equal to the Three-Month Libor Rate in effect from time to time (the “Swap Rate”);

(d) in the case of Caps, provide for a notional interest rate not greater than the lowest interest rate that would result in an Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period for the Variable Advances subject to the Cap of not less than 1.10 to 1 (the “Cap Interest Rate”), provided that the Aggregate Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the Trailing 12 Month Period shall be calculated based on an interest rate equal to (i) the then current Three-Month LIBOR Rate, plus (ii) the Variable Facility Fee, plus (iii) 300 basis points, and including any amortization payments in respect of such Loan;

(e) in the case of Swaps, require the counterparty to make interest payments on the notional principal amount at a rate equal to the amount by which Coupon Rate exceeds the Swap Rate;

(f) in the case of Caps, require the counterparty to make interest payments on the notional principal amount at a rate equal to the amount by which the then applicable Coupon Rate exceeds the Cap Interest Rate;

Section 21.03. Hedge Security Agreement; Delivery of Hedge Payments.

Pursuant to a Hedge Security Agreement, Lender shall be granted an enforceable, perfected, first priority lien on and security interest in each Hedge and payments due under the Hedge (including scheduled and termination payments) in order to secure Borrower’s obligations to Lender under this Agreement. With respect to each Hedge, the Hedge Security Agreement must be delivered by Borrower to Lender no later than the effective date of the Hedge.

Section 21.04. Termination.

Borrower shall not terminate, transfer or consent to any transfer of any existing Hedge without Lender’s prior written consent as long as Borrower is required to maintain a Hedge pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that if, and at such time as, there are no Variable Advances Outstanding that are part of the Hedge Requirement Amount, Borrower shall have the right to terminate the existing Hedge and the proceeds of any such termination shall be paid to Borrower.

Section 21.05. Performance Under Hedge Documents.

Borrower agrees to comply fully with, and to otherwise perform when due, its obligations under, all applicable Hedge Documents and all other agreements evidencing, governing and/or securing any Hedge arrangement contemplated under this Article 21. Borrower shall not exercise, without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall exercise, at Lender’s direction, any rights or remedies under any Hedge Document, including without limitation the right of termination.

Section 21.06. Approved Swaps.

Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the parties hereby acknowledge that the Hedge Documents evidencing the LIBOR Swaps set forth on Schedule II attached hereto have been approved by Fannie Mae as acceptable Swaps under this Agreement (the “Approved Swaps”). Borrower Parties agree to assign to Lender all right, title and interest in all payments received (but not the obligation for any payments due) under the Approved Swaps in a form acceptable to Lender. Lender’s approval of the documents evidencing an Approved Swap shall pertain to those Hedge Documents in effect as of the date of such Lender approval. No amendments or modifications to the Hedge Documents of an Approved Swap shall be permitted without Lender’s prior written consent. An Approved Swap may no longer satisfy the Hedge requirements set forth in this Article 21 upon the first to occur of:

(a) any Termination Event or any Event of Default (as each term is defined in the documents evidencing the Approved Swap) under an Approved Swap, including any “Cross Default” with respect to the swap provider, or

(b) [Intentionally Deleted]

(c) any modification or amendment to the Hedge Documents evidencing the Approved Swap without prior written Lender consent. Additional requirements may be imposed by Lender upon review of the applicable Hedge Documents submitted for review as Approved Swaps.

In the event that an Approved Swap is transferred by a Swap provider to another Swap provider (by merger, transfer, assignment or otherwise), Borrower shall notify Lender immediately upon receipt of knowledge of such transfer and Lender hereby reserves the right to re-evaluate its approval of such Approved Swap.

Section 21.07. Approved Caps.

Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the parties hereby acknowledge that the Hedge Documents evidencing the LIBOR Caps set forth on Schedule III attached hereto have been approved by Fannie Mae as acceptable Caps under this Agreement (the “Approved Caps”). Borrower Parties agree to assign to Lender all right, title and interest in all payments received (but not the obligation for any payments due) under the Approved Caps in a form acceptable to Lender. Lender’s approval of the documents evidencing an Approved Cap shall pertain to those Hedge Documents in effect as of the date of such Lender approval. No amendments or modifications to the Hedge Documents of an Approved Cap shall be permitted without Lender’s prior written consent. An Approved Cap may no longer satisfy the Hedge requirements set forth in this Article 21 upon the first to occur of:

(a) any Termination Event or any Event of Default (as each term is defined in the documents evidencing the Approved Cap) under an Approved Cap, including any “Cross Default” with respect to the Cap provider, or

(b) any modification or amendment to the Hedge Documents evidencing the Approved Cap without prior written Lender consent. Additional requirements may be imposed by Lender upon review of the applicable Hedge Documents submitted for review as Approved Caps.

In the event that an Approved Cap is transferred by a Cap provider to another Cap provider (by merger, transfer, assignment or otherwise), Borrower shall notify Lender immediately upon receipt of knowledge of such transfer and Lender hereby reserves the right to re-evaluate its approval of such Approved Cap.
