Second Amendment to Revolving Credit Agreement

As previously reported, NexPoint Multifamily Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), the wholly-owned operating partnership of NexPoint Multifamily Capital Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), and Highland Capital Management, L.P. (the “Sponsor”), the Company’s sponsor, entered into that certain revolving credit agreement dated April 7, 2016, as borrowers (the “Borrowers”) of up to $15,000,000, with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”) as administrative agent and lender (the “Key Revolver”). On August 19, 2016 the Borrowers and KeyBank amended the Key Revolver (the “First Amendment”) to increase the credit limit (the “Commitment”) from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000, reduced to $17,000,000 as of October 31, 2016, and reduced to $15,000,000 as of December 31, 2016. Further, the First Amendment reflected that, to the extent any principal payments are made on the principal balance of the Key Revolver, including any mandatory prepayment, at any time that the principal balance of the Key Revolver exceeds $15,000,000, the Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of such prepayment and the amount prepaid shall not be available to be reborrowed.

On April 7, 2017, the scheduled maturity date of the Key Revolver, the Borrowers and KeyBank amended the Key Revolver (the “Second Amendment”) to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity date of the Key Revolver to June 30, 2017, (ii) cap the Commitment at $11,000,000 and (iii) prohibit any additional loans pursuant to the Key Revolver. In connection with the Second Amendment, the Borrowers agreed to pay KeyBank an amendment fee in the amount of $27,500.

The foregoing summary of the Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
