WHEREAS the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have entered into that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 18, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), whereby the Lenders have agreed to provide certain financial accommodations to the Borrower; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders agree to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Lenders have agreed to so amend the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement as set forth herein;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.Incorporation of Terms and Conditions of Credit Agreement. Except as amended hereby, all of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all definitions set forth therein) are specifically incorporated herein by reference. Except as amended hereby, all capitalized terms used (including in the preamble hereto) but not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Credit Agreement, as applicable.

2. Representations and Warranties. Each Credit Party hereby represents and warrants that, as of the Amendment Effective Date, (i) no Default or Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document and (ii) all representations and warranties of such Credit Party set forth in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which event they were true and correct as of such earlier date.

3. Ratification of Loan Documents and Guaranties. The Credit Agreement, as hereby amended, and each other Loan Document, is hereby ratified, confirmed and re-affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Guarantor hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that its “Obligations” as a Guarantor under, and as defined in, the applicable Guaranty to which it is a party include, without limitation, all Obligations of the Credit Parties at any time and from time to time outstanding under the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and each other Loan Document.

4. Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 hereof, Article 1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows


(a)	by deleting and replacing the same as follows:


(i)	the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances” is hereby amended as by inserting the following additional subsection (g) in its appropriate alphabetical order:

“and (g) Liens in favor of the Borrower or a direct or indirect wholly-owned Lending Subsidiary of the Borrower securing JV Related Intercompany Debt;”


(ii)	the definition of “Permitted Investments” is hereby amended by inserting the following additional subsection (f) in its proper alphabetical order:

“and (f) Intercompany Debt.”


(b)	by inserting the following new definitions in appropriate alphabetical order:

“Amendment Effective Date” means September 14, 2017.

“Intercompany Debt” means indebtedness for borrowed money of any Subsidiary owed to the Guarantor or any other Lending Subsidiary that is eliminated in connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Guarantor in accordance with GAAP.

“JV Related Intercompany Debt” means any Intercompany Debt that is issued by a Property Subsidiary that is a joint venture (herein, a “JV Property Subsidiary”), one of the equity owners in which is the Borrower or one of its direct or indirect wholly-owned Lending Subsidiaries, which Intercompany Debt is evidenced by a physical note or notes, which note or notes shall be free and clear of any Lien, and held by the Borrower and/or one of its direct or indirect wholly-owned Lending Subsidiaries. For the avoidance of doubt, at any time after the Borrower and/or any of its direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries acquire all of the equity interests in a JV Property Subsidiary, the Intercompany Debt, if any, of such JV Property Subsidiary shall no longer be treated as JV Related Intercompany Debt.

The delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopier or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart.

9. Severability. Any determination that any provision of this Amendment or any application thereof is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect in any instance shall not affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of such provision in any other instance, or the validity, legality, or enforceability of any other provision of this Amendment.

10. Headings. The headings at various places in this Amendment are intended for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Amendment.
