Section 1.Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the same meanings when used herein unless otherwise defined herein.
Section 2.Trust hereby becomes a party to the Loan Documents in place of the REIT with the same force and effect as if originally named therein, and as a Guarantor under the Guaranty, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally assumes and agrees to timely and faithfully pay and perform all of the obligations of the REIT under the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents. All references in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the REIT shall be deemed to be references to the Trust.
Section 3.The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a) Section 6.06(d) and Section 6.07(d) are hereby deleted.
Section 4.Borrower represents and warrants that, except as qualified in this Section, (a) the representations and warranties contained in Article III of the Credit Agreement are true

Section 5.Except as expressly amended hereby, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect. The Credit Agreement, as hereby amended, and all rights and powers created thereby or thereunder and under the other Loan Documents are in all respects ratified and confirmed and remain in full force and effect.
Section 6.The term “Credit Agreement” as used in the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument, document or writing furnished to Agent or Lenders by Borrower shall mean the Credit Agreement as hereby amended.

Section 8.THIS AMENDMENT AND ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES BEFORE OR SUBSTANTIALLY CONTEMPORANEOUSLY WITH THE EXECUTION HEREOF TOGETHER CONSTITUTE A WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT WHICH REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. Borrower, Trust and Guarantors each hereby releases, discharges and acquits forever Agent, Lenders and their respective officers, directors, trustees, agents, employees and counsel (in each case, past, present and future) from any and all Claims existing as of the date of actual execution hereof by the
