Grapevine,

On

shareholders at an annualized rate of 8.0% per share with respect to each day of
the period commencing on December 18, 2009 and ending on March 31,

The
distributions will be calculated based on the number of days each shareholder
has been a shareholder of record based on 365 days in the calendar year, and
will be equal to $0.0043836 per common share of beneficial interest, which is
equal to an annualized distribution rate of 8.0%, assuming a purchase price of
$20.00 per share. These distributions will be aggregated and paid in cash
monthly in arrears. Therefore, the distributions declared for each record date
in the December 2009, January 2010, February 2010 and March 2010 periods will be
paid in January 2010, February 2010, March 2010 and April 2010,
respectively. Distributions will be paid on or about the 25th day
of the respective month or, if the 25th day
of the month falls on a weekend or bank holiday, on the next business day
following the 25th day
of the month. Distributions for shareholders participating in United
Development Funding IV’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan will be reinvested into
shares of United Development Funding IV on the payment date of each
distribution.
