C. Original Borrower is liable for the payment and performance of all of its obligations under the Note, the Mortgage, and all other documents evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or otherwise pertaining to the Loan (collectively, together with all of the other documents evidencing and securing the Loan, as the same are modified by this Agreement and any other agreement with Lender and HUD in connection with the Assumption (as defined below), are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the “Loan Documents”). The Loan Documents include, without limitation, (a) that certain Security Agreement dated July 1, 2010 by and between Original Borrower and Lender (the “Borrower Security Agreement”) and (b) that certain Regulatory Agreement for Multifamily Housing Projects dated July 1, 2010 by and between Original Borrower and the Secretary and recorded on July 9, 2010 as Instrument No. 10070215 in the Records (the “Regulatory Agreement”).

To Lender’s knowledge, no monetary defaults or events of default exist under the Loan Documents, and Lender has not delivered notice to Original Borrower of any defaults, events of defaults, or events or conditions that have occurred which after the passage of time or giving of notice will constitute a default or an event of default under the Loan Documents.

5. Representations and Warranties of New Borrower. New Borrower represents and warrants to Original Borrower, Lender and HUD that:

(b) This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of New Borrower, enforceable against New Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject only to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity.

6. Representations and Warranties of Original Borrower. Original Borrower represents and warrants to New Borrower, Lender and HUD that:

Effective as of the recordation of this Agreement, Original Borrower is released by Lender and HUD from its obligations as set forth in the Loan Documents arising after the date of hereof, except for recourse obligations for which it expressly has personal liability under the Note and other Loan Documents (“Recourse Obligations”), if any, to the extent such Recourse Obligations arise out of acts or events occurring or obligations arising prior to or on the date hereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall waive, compromise, impair or prejudice any right that the Lender or the Secretary might have to seek judicial, administrative or other recourse for any breach of the Loan Documents that may have occurred or accrued prior to or may occur subsequent to the date of this Agreement.

8. No Impairment of Liens. The Project is and shall remain in all respects subject to the lien, charge or encumbrance of the Mortgage and other Loan Documents and/or the conveyance of title contained in the Loan Documents.

Nothing in this Agreement shall affect or be construed to affect any other security or instrument, if any, held by Lender in connection with or to evidence the Loan.

9. Consent to Transfer and Assumption. Lender and the Secretary hereby consent to the Transfer and Assumption and agree that such Transfer and Assumption shall not constitute a default under the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. However, neither Lender nor the Secretary waives any other default, whether now in existence or occurring hereafter, whether known or unknown. This waiver applies only to this particular Transfer and not to any future transfer or sale. New Borrower and Original Borrower agree that they will not sell or attempt to sell or transfer or otherwise dispose of the Project without the written consent of Lender and Secretary, their respective successors or assigns, except for the sale and leaseback referred to herein.

10. Amendments to Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are hereby modified and amended (and no further amendment document shall be required) to reflect the Transfer and Assumption provided for herein. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Loan Documents are hereby amended effective as of the date hereof as follows:

(a) The term “Owners” as used in the Regulatory Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents means New Borrower and its successors, heirs and assigns.

(b) The address of New Borrower is c/o Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc., 1551 N. Tustin Avenue, Suite 300, Santa Ana, CA 92705, Attention: President and Chief Operating Officer.

(d) All references in the Loan Documents to the master lease and the sublease shall be hereby amended to mean and refer to the New Master Lease and the new sublease by and between Master Tenant and the current operator of the Project.

(e) The following is added to the end of Section 7 of the Security Agreement:

“(d) Debtor violates any provision of (i) this Security Agreement; or (ii) any other instrument related to the indebtedness evidenced by the HUD Loan Documents to which Debtor is a party; provided, however, that an event of default shall not occur unless such violation is not cured within applicable cure periods, if any, as may be provided in said documents; or

(e) There occurs any actual or threatened demolition of or injury or waste to the Project, not covered by insurance, or not replaced or restored by Debtor, which may impair the value of the Collateral; or

(f) A receiver is appointed for or a petition in bankruptcy is filed by or against Debtor, its successors or its assigns, which receiver or involuntary bankruptcy petition is not removed, vacated or stayed within sixty (60) days from the first date of appointment or filing thereof; or

(g) Debtor is dissolved and liquidation of Debtor is commenced in accordance with Debtor’s organizational documents and/or the law of the state.”

11. Reaffirmation. Except as expressly modified by this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents remain unchanged and are reaffirmed, ratified and confirmed by all of the parties hereto, and remain in full force and effect. New Borrower acknowledges that, as of the date hereof and subject to the terms hereof, it has no defenses, rights of set off or counterclaims of any type to the Loan or the Loan Documents.

12. Indemnification.

(a) Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, Original Borrower hereby reaffirms to New Borrower and its affiliates any and all indemnity obligations by Original Borrower, Master Tenant or any of their affiliates arising in favor of New Borrower or its affiliates in connection with the Transfer and the Assumption and Original Borrower, HUD and Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any such additional indemnity obligations.

(b) Nothing in this Section 12 shall be construed to constitute a waiver by any party of the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

13. No Satisfaction or Release of Loan Documents. All parties to this Agreement specifically confirm and agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be understood or construed to amount to a satisfaction or release in whole or in part of any of the Loan Documents or of the Project.

14. No Waiver. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution of this Agreement by the Lender and Secretary does not and shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies to which Lender and Secretary is entitled pursuant to the Loan Documents, nor shall the same constitute a waiver of any default which may have heretofore occurred or which may hereafter occur with respect to the Loan Documents.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart.

16. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement are for any reason invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained in this Agreement.

17. Governing Law. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be governed by the applicable internal laws of the State where the Project is located, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.

18. Interpretation of Agreement. Within this Agreement, words of any gender shall be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held and construed to include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.

19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the assumption of the Loan and fully supersedes all prior agreements and understanding between the parties pertaining to such subject matter.

20. Binding Provisions. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns.

21. Equal Opportunity in Housing. New Borrower agrees that it shall fully comply with the provisions of (1) any laws prohibiting discrimination in housing on the basis of race, color, creed or national origin; and (2) with the Regulations of the Department of Housing and Urban Development providing for nondiscrimination and equal opportunity in housing. New Borrower understands and agrees that New Borrower’s failure or refusal to comply with any such provisions shall be a proper basis for the Secretary to take any corrective action he may deem necessary, including, but not limited to, the rejection of future applications for FHA mortgage insurance and the refusal to enter into future contracts of any kind with which New Borrower is identified; and further, the Secretary shall have a similar right to corrective action (1) with respect to any individuals who are officers, directors, principal stockholders, trustees, manager, partners or associates of New Borrower and (2) with respect to any corporation or any other type of business association or organization with which the officers, directors, principal stockholders, trustees, manager, partners, or associates of New Borrower may be identified.
