Any principal balance reduction shall reduce Lender’s commitment by a like amount. Any amount repaid may not be re-borrowed. |
(e) | The Debt Yield shall be not less than fourteen and one-half of one percent (14.50%); provided, however, that Borrower shall have the right to pay down the outstanding principal balance of the Loan such that said Debt Yield may be met.

(f) | At Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the issuance by the Title Company, and Lender’s receipt, of any endorsements reasonably deemed necessary by Lender for attachment to the Title Policy, insuring the priority and validity of the Deeds of Trust as a first and valid lien upon the applicable Property subject only to such exceptions as have been approved by Lender in writing. |
(g) | On or before the Original Maturity Date, Lender shall have received an extension fee in an amount equal to fourteen-hundredths of a percent (0.14%) of the then commitment amount of the Loan (as of the Original Maturity Date), as may be reduced in accordance with Sections (d) and (e) above. |
Commencing on the first day of the first full calendar month following the Original Maturity Date, and continuing on a monthly basis thereafter, Borrower shall repay principal outstanding under the Loan in equal monthly payments determined by Lender based upon the total commitment amount of the Loan on the Original Maturity Date, a thirty (30) year amortization schedule, and a five percent (5.00%) interest rate (the “Amortization Payments”). Except as modified by this Option to Extend, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents as modified and approved by Lender from time to time shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.”

A. | Pursuant to the terms of that certain Loan Agreement by and among Borrower and Lender, dated February 11, 2011 (the “Loan Agreement”), Lender made a loan to Borrower in the original principal amount of $92,000,000 (“Loan”). The Loan is evidenced by that certain Promissory Note Secured by Deeds of Trust, dated February 11, 2011, executed by Borrower payable to the order of Lender, in the principal amount of the Loan (the “Existing Note”) and is further evidenced and secured by certain other documents described in the Loan Agreement as Loan Documents. |

NON-BORROWER TRUSTORS’ CONSENT
The undersigned (collectively, "Non-Borrower Trustor") consents to the foregoing First Modification and Additional Advance Agreement (the “Modification Agreement”) and the transactions contemplated thereby and reaffirms its obligations under the applicable Deed of Trust. Each capitalized term used herein and not defined shall have the meaning given to such term in the Modification Agreement.
The Aggregate Loan shall be secured by the Deeds of Trust.
Without limitation of the foregoing, Non-Borrower Trustor confirms that the Deeds of Trust continue to secure the Loan as modified and amended by the Modification Agreement, including, but not limited to, the payment to Lender of all liability, whether liquidated or unliquidated, defined, contingent, conditional or of any other nature whatsoever, and performance of all covenants and obligations, arising under any Swap Agreement and/or the Amended and Restated Note, together with interest and other charges thereon and any and all amendments, modifications, extensions and renewals thereof, whether or not any such amendment, modification, extension or renewal is evidenced by a new or additional promissory note or notes.
Non-Borrower Trustor acknowledges and represents that Deeds of Trust are in full force and effect without any defense, counterclaim, right or claim of set-off; and that all necessary action to authorize the execution and delivery of this consent has been taken. Non-Borrower Trustor hereby represents and warrants that, to the Non-Borrower Trustor’s knowledge, no Default, breach or failure of condition has occurred, or would exist with notice or the lapse of time or both, under the Deeds of Trust, and that all representations and warranties in the Deeds of Trust remain true and correct in all material respects, as modified hereby. Since the recordation date of the Deeds of Trust, Non-Borrower Trustor has not further encumbered the Existing Property or any portion thereof in a manner prohibited by the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, by entering into any deed of trust, deed to secure debt or mortgage, ground lease, and/or any option to purchase or right of first refusal with respect to the Existing Property or any portion thereof. Non-Borrower Trustor represents and warrants that the lien of the Deeds of Trust are a first lien on the applicable Property and that the Modification Agreement will not cause intervening liens to become prior to the lien of the Deeds of Trust. If any intervening lien exists or hereafter arises, Non-Borrower Trustor shall cause the same to be released or subordinated to the lien of the Deeds of Trust without limiting any other right or remedy available to Lender. Non-Borrower Trustor further warrants that Non-Borrower Trustor has no legal or equitable claim which would be prior to the lien of the Deeds of Trust, or which would entitle Non-Borrower Trustor to a judgment entitling Non-Borrower Trustor to an equitable lien on all or any portion of that property prior in lien to the Deeds of Trust.
Non-Borrower Trustor further agrees, if requested by Lender, to execute and deliver, in recordable form, an additional document modifying or supplementing the Deeds of Trust, in form and content acceptable to Lender, to be recorded in the applicable land records and evidencing of record the matters set forth herein.
Non-Borrower Trustor understands that the Lender's exercise of a non-judicial foreclosure sale under any of the Deeds of Trust will, by virtue of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580d, result in the destruction of any subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights which Non-Borrower Trustor may have against the Borrower. Non-Borrower Trustor further understands that such exercise by Lender and the consequent destruction of subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights would constitute a defense to the enforcement of the Guaranty by Lender. With this explicit understanding, Non-Borrower Trustor nevertheless specifically waives any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has or may have destroyed Non-Borrower Trustor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise. Non-Borrower Trustor further specifically waives any and all rights and defenses that Non-Borrower Trustor may have because Borrower's debt is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (1) Lender may collect from Non-Borrower Trustor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property
collateral pledged by Borrower; (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Lender may collect from Non-Borrower Trustor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Non-Borrower Trustor may have to collect from Borrower. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Non-Borrower Trustor may have because Borrower's debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses being waived by Non-Borrower Trustor include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. This understanding and waiver is made in addition to, and not in limitation of, any of the existing terms and conditions of the Non-Borrower Trustor rider attached to the Deeds of Trust, as applicable.
