AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and conditions set forth below and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.Recitals; Representations; Reaffirmation of Loan. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference. As of the Effective Date (as defined in Section 6 below), each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Agent and the Lenders that, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and to such Borrower’s knowledge, no condition has occurred and is continuing that, with notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, except for facts and circumstances of which Administrative Agent has actual knowledge as of the date of this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby reaffirms all of its obligations under the Loan Documents and relating to any Lender-Provided Swap Transactions, and acknowledges that it has no claims, offsets or defenses with respect to the payment of sums due under the Loan Agreement, the Notes or under any Lender-
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-5-
0YWK-279636



Provided Swap Transactions. Without limiting the foregoing, each Borrower reaffirms Agent’s right, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to apply any and all payments made by a Borrower or otherwise received by Agent or the Lenders with respect to the Loan and any Lender-Provided Swap Transaction, including without limitation all proceeds received from the sale or liquidation of any collateral, to the obligations owing by a Borrower under the Loan Documents and Lender-Provided Swap Transactions in such order and manner deemed appropriate by Agent in Agent’s sole discretion, and each Borrower acknowledges that it shall have no right to direct Agent as to such application or designate the portion of the obligation to be satisfied.
2.Amendments to the Loan Documents. In addition to any other amendments provided for herein, the Loan Documents are hereby modified as follows (which modifications shall automatically become effective as of (but not before) the date of the satisfaction of the McEwen Release Conditions (defined below) (the “McEwen Release Effective Date”) without further action needed by any party (or shall be effective as of the Effective Date to the extent so expressly noted or if not conditioned upon the occurrence of the McEwen Release Effective Date, such as with respect to the extension of the Maturity Date to the Extended First Extended Maturity Date):
(a)Extension of Maturity Date. Borrower previously exercised its rights under Section 2.8 of the Loan Agreement (First Extension of Maturity Date) to extend the term of the Loan from the Initial Maturity Date to the First Extended Maturity Date (i.e., March 1, 2024). As a result, as of the date hereof but prior to effectiveness of this Agreement, the Maturity Date of the Loan is March 1, 2024 and Borrower has the option to extend the term of the Loan to the “Second Option Maturity Date” (i.e., March 1, 2025) subject to the satisfaction of the applicable extension conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the First Extended Maturity Date (and thereby, the Maturity Date) is hereby extended to April 15, 2024 (the “Extended First Extended Maturity Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any terms or conditions to the contrary in the Loan Documents, upon Borrower’s satisfaction of the McEwen Release Conditions, Borrower’s option to extend the term of the Loan to the “Second Option Maturity Date” is hereby cancelled and of no further force or effect. In lieu of the foregoing, Administrative Agent and Lenders have agreed that the Maturity Date shall be automatically extended to March 1, 2026 (the “Extended Maturity Date”) upon Administrative Agent’s determination that (1) no Default or Event of Default exists and (2) Borrower has satisfied the McEwen Release Conditions and consummated the sale of the McEwen Project to a third party purchaser pursuant to an arm’s-length transaction (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, if Borrower fails to satisfy the requirements of clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence, unless Administrative Agent and Lenders otherwise agree in writing, the term of the Loan shall not be extended to the Extended Maturity Date and the Maturity Date shall remain the Extended First Extended Maturity Date; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, if Borrower fails to cause the Maturity Date to be extended to the Extended Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, Borrower shall retain its rights to extend the term of the Loan to the “Second Option Maturity Date” (i.e., March 1, 2025) subject to its satisfaction of the terms and conditions of Section 2.9 (Second Extension of Maturity Date) of the Loan Agreement so long as such option is successfully exercised on or prior to the Extended First Extended Maturity Date. If Borrower successfully extends the Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date, the “Maturity Date” under the Loan Documents shall mean the Extended Maturity Date. Further,
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-6-
0YWK-279636



notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents, Borrower shall have no further options to extend the Maturity Date except as specifically set forth herein. Following the sale of the McEwen Project, Administrative Agent agrees, at the written request of Borrower, to confirm in writing that the Maturity Date has been extended to the Extended Maturity Date.
(b)Conversion of the Facility to a Non-Revolving Facility; Remargin Requirement. As of the McEwen Release Effective Date, the facility will automatically convert to a non-revolving term facility, such that such Revolving Debt is combined with the Non-Revolving Debt, availability under the Revolving Portion is reduced to zero, and amounts borrowed under the Loan Documents may not be reborrowed once repaid. Further, from and after the McEwen Release Effective Date, Borrower shall have no further rights or options to borrow Loan proceeds under the Revolving Portion, and any and all of Borrower’s rights relating to the Revolving Portion are hereby removed under the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the McEwen Release Effective Date, Borrower shall have no right or option to borrow any proceeds which may remain available under the Loan following the conversion described in this paragraph except as otherwise set forth in Section 2(h) of this Agreement below.
(c)Applicable Margin. On the McEwen Release Effective Date, but effective as of March 1, 2024 (even if retroactive), the definition of Applicable Margin set forth in Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
Applicable Margin”: Means, with respect to Advances at the Term SOFR Based Rate or the Base Rate, if applicable, three hundred (300) basis points.
For purposes of clarification, until the date set forth above, interest shall continue to accrue under the Notes at the applicable interest rate(s) in effect under the existing Loan Documents.
(d)Quarterly Amortization Payments. From and after the McEwen Release Effective Date hereof, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in addition to monthly installments of interest at the Loan Rate in accordance with the Loan Documents (and without limiting Borrower’s obligations to make any other payments under the Loan Documents), quarterly payments of principal in the amount of $880,900.00 (each a “Quarterly Principal Payment”). Borrower shall make a Quarterly Principal Payment on each March 1st, June 1st, September 1st and December 1st while the Loan is outstanding, commencing with the first such Quarterly Principal Payment due on June 1, 2024, and continuing on each applicable date going forward. Any amounts repaid in connection with a Quarterly Principal Payment may not be reborrowed.
(e)Elimination of Accordion Option. From and after the McEwen Release Effective Date, Borrower shall have no further rights or options to increase the Aggregate Commitment, and any and all related rights to do so shall be eliminated from the Loan and the Loan Documents (under Section 10.29 or otherwise). In connection therewith, from and after the McEwen Release Effective Date, Section 10.29 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated and replaced with the following:

SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-7-
0YWK-279636



Section 10.29    Reserved.
(f)Restrictions on Upper Tier Distributions. From and after the McEwen Release Effective Date, Borrower shall not permit KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc. (“KBS REIT III”) to make distributions, redemptions or dividends (collectively, “Distributions”) without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, other than any amounts that KBS REIT III is required to distribute to its shareholders in order for KBS REIT III (or any subsidiaries of KBS REIT III classified as a REIT) to maintain its REIT status pursuant to applicable law. Failure to comply with the foregoing covenant shall result in an immediate Event of Default; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall Borrower make any Distributions of proceeds from the McEwen Release (and any such Distribution shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder).
(g)McEwen Project Release.
(i)Elimination of General Project Release Option. Effective as of the McEwen Release Effective Date, Section 10.31 (Release of Projects) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
Section 10.31    Reserved.
(ii) McEwen Project Release Conditions. Effective as of the McEwen Release Effective Date (so that the existing provisions set forth in the Loan Agreement as of the date hereof (i.e., prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement) will remain in effect if the McEwen Release Conditions are not satisfied), except as expressly set forth below, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to release any of the Projects (or portions thereof) until the Loan and all other Obligations have been paid in full and all obligations of Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have terminated. Borrower shall only be entitled to obtain the release of the Project encumbered by the McEwen Deed of Trust (the “McEwen Project”) from the lien of the Loan Documents, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (the “McEwen Release Conditions”):
(a)    Concurrently with the closing of the sale of the McEwen Project, Borrower shall have paid (or caused to be paid) to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the greater of (x) $45,000,000.00 or (y) the Net Sales Proceeds (the “Required McEwen Payment”). As used herein, “Net Sales Proceeds” means the gross sales price generated by the sale of the McEwen Project to a third-party purchaser (the “Buyer”), less an amount equal to all prorated amounts credited towards the “Purchase Price” as set forth on a settlement statement prepared by the escrow company handling the closing and approved by Agent (which approval shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably) (“Settlement Statement”), and less the actual commissions and closing costs paid to third parties (i.e., not affiliates of any Borrower or Guarantor) as set forth on the Settlement Statement, and less the Extension Fee (to the extent the same has actually been paid to Administrative Agent). Additionally, Borrowers shall be required to deposit into the Cash Management Account any payments relating to the McEwen Project
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-8-
0YWK-279636



received in connection with the final adjustment or final prorations under the applicable purchase and sale agreement; provided, however, to the extent Borrower has actually deposited Net Sales Proceeds into the Cash Management Account, Borrower shall have the right to, thereafter, make withdrawals up to the amount of any such deposited Net Sales Proceeds (and not in excess of the same) from the Cash Management Account to the extent necessary to pay any additional post-closing prorations (if any) then due and payable under such purchase and sale agreement. Additionally, the Required McEwen Payment will be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2(h) below.
(b)    Borrower shall have submitted to Administrative Agent a written request for such release at least twenty (20) days prior to the proposed release date, together with (x) copies of any documents which Borrower requests Administrative Agent to execute in connection with such proposed release and (y) copies of any documents reasonably required by Agent with respect to the disposition of the McEwen Project (including, without limitation, the applicable purchase and sale agreement and any modifications or extensions thereof). Borrower and Agent hereby acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, Borrower has submitted the above described release request to Agent within the required time frame and the conditions in this clause (b) have been satisfied.
(c)    Such release shall apply to the entirety of the McEwen Project (i.e., Borrower shall not be entitled to request a release of a portion of the McEwen Project).
(d)    No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no event shall have occurred and be continuing that with the giving of notice and/or the lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default.
(e)    In addition to the amount set forth in subsection (i) above, Borrower shall have paid to Administrative Agent, for application to the principal balance of the Loan, an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the outstanding principal balance of the Loan exceeds the then current Maximum Support Threshold. In calculating the Maximum Support Threshold, the Maximum Supported Amount shall be determined based only on the Projects remaining after the proposed release (i.e., without regard to the McEwen Project).
(f)    Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent (1) a pro forma covenant compliance certificate demonstrating the continuing compliance with the Maximum Supported Amount and financial covenants on a pro forma basis based on the most recently available financial statements adjusted to reflect the proposed release of the McEwen Project and (2) such certifications from the Guarantor that, after giving effect to the proposed release, Guarantor shall be in compliance with its financial covenants under the Guaranty (as amended hereby).
(g)    Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent at Borrower’s sole cost and expense such title insurance endorsements to the Title Policies for the remaining Deeds of Trust as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request (including, without limitation, CLTA Form 111 Endorsements (or its equivalent), to the extent available and
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-9-
0YWK-279636



in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which shall insure that after such release, each remaining Security Instrument shall continue as a valid first position lien against the Project encumbered thereby, subject only to such new title exceptions as Administrative Agent shall approve in writing.
(h)    Borrower shall pay, or caused to be paid, to Administrative Agent all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such release, including without limitation all breakage fees, recording fees, transfer and other taxes, trustee’s fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraisal fees, escrow fees, and fees for title insurance and similar charges.
(i)    Following the release of the McEwen Project the McEwen Project shall no longer be included in the definition of “Project” except with respect to any indemnities and other provisions of the Loan Documents that expressly survive repayment of the Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any other term or condition to the contrary set forth in any of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall not be entitled to a release of any Project or Borrower other than the McEwen Project and the McEwen Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof (unless agreed to by Agent and the Lenders in Agent’s and the Lenders’ sole and absolute discretion).
(h)Conditional Additional Advance Following McEwen Release. If and when received, the entirety of the Required McEwen Payment shall be applied to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the provisions of this Section will automatically be implemented without further authorization or consent of the parties. Concurrently therewith, Administrative Agent shall establish each Holdback, consisting of (i) a holdback for the payment of, or reimbursement of the Borrower’s payment of, Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions and Capital Expenditures at the Improvements equal to $10,000,000.00 (the “Tenant Improvement Allocation”) and (ii) a holdback for the payment of, or reimbursement of the Borrower’s payment of, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and capital expenditures for real property and related improvements wholly-owned (directly or indirectly) by Guarantor (each a “Guarantor Portfolio Property” and collectively the “Guarantor Portfolio Properties”) in a to-be-determined amount equal to the lesser of (a) $7,000,000.00 and (b) an amount equal to the Required McEwen Payment minus $40,000,000.00 (the “General Use Allocation”); provided, in any event, Borrower may only request and apply disbursements of the General Use Allocation for tenant improvements, leasing commissions and capital expenditures at Guarantor Portfolio Properties to the extent such costs and expenses were incurred (or invoiced to the extent timely billed) after payment of the Required McEwen Payment in accordance with the terms hereof). In connection with the foregoing, Lenders agree to provide Borrowers, and Borrowers shall be deemed to have accepted (if and when disbursed), an additional advance in the principal sum equal to the sum of the Tenant Improvement Allocation and the General Use Allocation (such amount, as and when disbursed, if at all, shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Additional Advance”). The Additional Advance, together with the then existing principal amount of the Loan (collectively, the “Increased Aggregate Commitment”), shall be evidenced by the Notes, and shall be secured by the Deeds of Trust (subject to the limitations on the maximum amount of principal indebtedness secured by each Deed of Trust, if any, set forth therein) and the other applicable Loan Documents (except those Loan Documents specifically excluded or otherwise stated to be unsecured). The Loan shall be

-10-
0YWK-279636



deemed consolidated with the Additional Advance to form a single indebtedness in the principal amount of the Increased Aggregate Commitment. At no time during the term of the Loan shall the outstanding amounts owing under the Loan exceed the applicable Aggregate Commitment. If applicable, the Additional Advance shall be disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions for disbursements set forth in this Agreement; provided if the McEwen Release Conditions are not satisfied, and the Required McEwen Payment is not received by Administrative Agent, the Holdbacks will not be created and there will be no Tenant Improvement Allocation and General Use Allocation, and Lenders will have no further obligation to fund any Advances in connection with the Holdbacks.
(i)Holdbacks (Tenant Improvement Allocation and the General Use Allocation. For the purposes of the below provisions, the following capitalized terms shall be defined as set forth in this paragraph (and shall apply to the Tenant Improvement Allocation only): (1) “Capital Expenditures” means replacements and/or alterations to any Project, the expenditures for which are required to be capitalized according to GAAP and set forth in the most recent Operating Budget and Business Plan for the applicable Project or otherwise approved by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; (2) “Leasing Commissions” means market rate brokerage commissions paid by Borrower pursuant to an Approved Lease (as defined below); provided, however, that, unless otherwise approved in writing by Administrative Agent in its discretion, the amount of the Loan advanced by the Lenders for such Leasing Commissions may not exceed the amounts set forth in Schedule 1 attached hereto; (3) “Tenant Improvements” means all bona fide costs incurred for construction and related work to tenant spaces within the Improvements required by Approved Leases, including costs for demolition, permitting, design, construction, moving and related expenses; provided, however, that, unless otherwise approved in writing by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, the amount of the Loan advanced by the Lenders for such tenant improvements may not exceed the amounts set forth in Schedule 1 attached hereto; and (4) “Approved Lease”: Means (x) any lease entered into by Borrower prior to the Effective Date with respect to a Project, to the extent such lease was entered into in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 6.29 of the Loan Agreement at the time such lease was entered into and disclosed to Agent in writing and (y) any other lease entered into by Borrower with respect to a Project subject to and in accordance with the terms of Section 6.29 of the Loan Agreement or otherwise approved by Administrative Agent in writing and, in any event, satisfying the thresholds and standards set forth in the Leasing Criteria Schedule attached hereto as Schedule 1 (the “Leasing Criteria Schedule”).
Additionally, the definition of “Approved Lease” set forth in the Loan Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety with the definition of “Approved Lease” set forth in the foregoing paragraph.
Further, for purposes of clarification, if the McEwen Release Conditions are not satisfied, and the Required McEwen Payment is not received by Administrative Agent, the Holdbacks will not be created and there will be no Tenant Improvement Allocation and General Use Allocation, and Lenders will have no further obligation to fund any Advances in connection with the Holdbacks. Additionally, if Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion that any modifications or amendments to the Loan Documents (including the Deeds of Trust or otherwise) are necessary or advisable to address the foregoing (and any other revisions conditioned upon the occurrence of the McEwen Release Effective Date), Borrowers and

Guarantor hereby covenant and agree to cooperate with Administrative Agent and Lenders to timely effectuate any such modifications or amendments and to take appropriate actions with respect thereto.
(i)Conditions Precedent to Disbursements from the Tenant Improvement Allocation. In addition to all of the conditions and requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement and in any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 3.4 of the Loan Agreement), with respect to each Advance of Loan proceeds from the Tenant Improvement Allocation, such Advances shall be subject to satisfaction of the additional conditions set forth below (or deemed satisfaction or waiver as provided in Article II of the Loan Agreement):
(a)    Borrower shall submit a request for disbursement no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed funding date. Upon receipt of a request for a disbursement, Administrative Agent will send a copy thereof to each other Lender and will otherwise notify each Lender of the proposed disbursement and the proposed date of funding. Each Lender will make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank designated by Administrative Agent) the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement by wire transfer in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the proposed date of funding. Additionally, all funds advanced under this Agreement to date from the Tenant Improvement Allocation have been utilized exclusively to pay (or to reimburse Borrower for payment of) Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions or Capital Expenditures (collectively, “Leasing Costs”) incurred for or in connection with the Improvements, and no part of the Loan proceeds have been paid for labor, materials, equipment, work, services or supplies incorporated into or employed in connection with any project other than the Project or any other Lease other than for Approved Leases.
(b)    Each disbursement for Leasing Costs may be made in reimbursement for expenses paid by Borrower, or, at Borrower’s option (unless an uncured Event of Default then exists for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, in which case it shall be at Administrative Agent’s election to the extent Lenders have agreed to fund notwithstanding such Event of Default), to pay for said expenses directly and, in either case, Borrower shall provide invoices or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the applicable Leasing Costs to be reimbursed or paid, as applicable. If an uncured Event of Default then exists for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, Administrative Agent, at its option and without further direction from Borrower, may (but is under no obligation to) disburse any portion of the Loan funds to any Person to whom payment is due or through an escrow satisfactory to Administrative Agent (and for purposes of clarification, as between Administrative Agent and Lenders, such disbursements shall remain subject to the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement). All funds allocated to the Tenant Improvement Allocation shall solely be available in connection with Leasing Costs, and Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse funds in excess of (x) the amounts allocated under the applicable Approved Leases with respect to the Tenant Improvements and Leasing Commissions, as applicable and (y) the applicable Operating Budget and Business Plan, with respect to Capital Expenditures. Administrative Agent hereby acknowledges that it has received and approved the 2024 Operating Budget and Business Plan.

(c)    Borrower shall not use any portion of any advance from the Tenant Improvement Allocation for payment or reimbursement of any other cost except as specifically set forth in a request for advance approved by Administrative Agent in writing.
(d)    Borrower has obtained all permits and licenses which are required under applicable law for the construction of such Tenant Improvements and Capital Expenditures, as applicable.
(e)    As to any completed Tenant Improvements and Capital Expenditures for which advances from the Tenant Improvement Allocation have been made under this Agreement, if requested by Administrative Agent in writing and if reasonably determined to be necessary by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall have furnished Administrative Agent with (A) unconditional lien waivers or releases from all contractors and materialmen employed in furnishing labor or materials in connection with the construction of such Tenant Improvements, and (B) a true and correct copy of the final and unconditional certificate of occupancy for the space (or such other evidence reasonable acceptable to Administrative Agent that the space can be occupied under applicable law), issued without restriction by the appropriate Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Project.
(f)    With respect to the final disbursement for the space under any Approved Lease being improved, the tenant under the lease shall have accepted the leased premises and be paying rent under such Approved Lease (or is under a free rent period thereunder), without offset, credit or defense, and, in any event, no event of default (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods) shall be ongoing under such Approved Lease.
(g)    Disbursements of Loan proceeds from the Tenant Improvements Allocation that are allocated to Leasing Commissions shall be made to pay, or reimburse Borrower for payment of, Leasing Commissions relating to applicable Approved Leases in accordance with written leasing commission agreements in effect as of the date of this Agreement or otherwise, on market terms and such commission is due and payable under the applicable leasing commission agreement.
(h)    Taking into account the proposed Advance, Borrower will be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants hereunder (including Maximum Supported Amount).
For avoidance of doubt, the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allocation shall be reduced, in each case, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, as Borrower continues to draw on the same, in connection with any Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions or Capital Expenditures and such draws shall reduce the remaining available Tenant Improvement Allocation.
(ii)Conditions Precedent to Disbursements from the General Use Allocation. In addition to all of the conditions and requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement and in any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 3.4 thereof), with respect to each Advance of Loan proceeds from the General Use Allocation, such Advances shall be subject to satisfaction of the additional

-13-
0YWK-279636



conditions set forth below (or deemed satisfaction or waiver as provided in Article II of the Loan Agreement):
(a)    Borrower shall submit a request for disbursement no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed funding date. Upon receipt of a request for a disbursement, Administrative Agent will send a copy thereof to each other Lender and will otherwise notify each Lender of the proposed disbursement and the proposed date of funding. Each Lender will make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank designated by Administrative Agent) the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such disbursement by wire transfer in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the proposed date of funding. All funds advanced under this Agreement to date from the General Use Allocation have been utilized exclusively to pay (or to reimburse Guarantor or its wholly-owned subsidiary for payment of) tenant improvements, leasing commissions or capital expenditures (collectively, “Guarantor Property Costs”) incurred for or in connection with the Guarantor Portfolio Properties (or any of them), and no part of the Loan proceeds have been paid for labor, materials, equipment, work, services or supplies incorporated into or employed in connection with any project other than Guarantor Portfolio Properties.
(b)    Each disbursement for Guarantor Property Costs may be made in reimbursement for expenses paid by Guarantor or its wholly-owned subsidiary (directly or indirectly), or, at Guarantor’s option (unless an uncured Event of Default then exists for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower or Guarantor, in which case it shall be at Administrative Agent’s election to the extent Lenders have agreed to fund notwithstanding such Event of Default), to pay for said expenses directly and, in either case, Borrower or Guarantor shall provide invoices or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the applicable Leasing Costs to be reimbursed or paid, as applicable. All funds allocated to the General Use Allocation shall solely be available in connection with Guarantor Property Costs, and, Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to disburse funds in excess of the applicable amounts allocated under the applicable leases in effect at the Guarantor Portfolio Properties with respect to the tenant improvements and leasing commissions, as applicable or in excess of amounts that are permitted (or otherwise approved by the applicable lender) under any financing documents applicable to the Guarantor Portfolio Property (and the draw request for such Guarantor Property Costs shall contain a certification confirming same).
(c)    Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Guarantor to, use any portion of any advance from the General Use Allocation for payment or reimbursement of any cost not permitted under the terms of this Agreement except as specifically set forth in a request for advance approved by Administrative Agent and Lenders in writing (and, in any event, advances from the General Use Allocation shall not be used (x) to make any amortization payments due under this Loan or (y) to repay the debts of Guarantor or its Affiliates (except to the extent the same are applied to the repayment of the Loan in accordance with the Loan Documents).
(d)    Guarantor or the applicable property owner of the applicable Guarantor Portfolio Property has obtained all permits and licenses which are required under applicable law for the construction of the applicable tenant improvements and capital expenditures, as applicable.

(e)    Guarantor shall provide to Agent (x) such information and documentation as to the Guarantor Property Costs Guarantor intends to fund with any applicable requested advance from the General Use Allocation and (y) such evidence and documentation as to costs of such Guarantor Property Costs, in either case, as Agent may, in each case, reasonably require.
(f)    Taking into account the proposed Advance, Borrower will be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants hereunder (including the Maximum Supported Amount).
For avoidance of doubt, the amount of the remaining General Use Allocation shall be reduced, in each case, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, as Borrower continues to draw on the same, in connection with applicable uses permitted hereunder and such draws shall reduce the remaining General Use Allocation.
(j)Cash Management Account. The following provisions will automatically take effect as of the McEwen Release Effective Date (but shall have no force and effect unless and until the McEwen Release Effective Date occurs):
(i)Cash Management Provisions. Terms used and not otherwise defined in the Loan Documents will have the meanings set forth at the end of this Section.
(a)    Within twenty (20) days following the McEwen Release Effective Date and thereafter (and in all events prior to the date required for the first deposit), during the term of the Loan, Borrower must establish and maintain one segregated interest-bearing account (with the interest to accrue for the benefit of Borrower unless an Event of Default exists) (the “Cash Management Account”) to be held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders, which Cash Management Account will be under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent. The Cash Management Account must be entitled using the following paradigm: “KBSIII 515 CONGRESS, LLC, as Borrower and U.S. Bank National Association, as Administrative Agent, pursuant to KBSIII 515 CONGRESS, LLC - Cash Management Account.” Borrower may not in any way alter or modify the Cash Management Account. Administrative Agent will have the sole right to make withdrawals from the Cash Management Account, and all costs and expenses for establishing and maintaining the Cash Management Account will be paid by Borrower. All monies now or hereafter deposited into the Cash Management Account will be deemed additional security for the Obligations, and except as expressly provided in this Section, Administrative Agent is not obligated to make any funds in the Cash Management Account available to Borrower or for the Projects. Once established the Cash Management Account will remain in effect until the Loan has been repaid in full.
(b)    The insufficiency of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account will not relieve Borrower from the obligation to make any payments, as and when due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such obligations will be separate and independent, and not conditioned on any event or circumstance whatsoever. All funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account following the occurrence and during the
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-15-
0YWK-279636



continuance of an Event of Default may be applied by Administrative Agent in such order and priority as Administrative Agent determines.
(c)    Until the Loan is repaid in full (and the Lenders have no further obligations to advance any Loan proceeds), Borrower shall deposit all Excess Cash Flow generated each month into the Cash Management Account on or prior to the twentieth (20th) day of the following month; provided Borrower shall commence making such deposits on the first full calendar month that follows the McEwen Release Effective Date (i.e., the first such deposit shall occur on or prior to April 20, 2024) and shall continue making such deposits each month thereafter. Additionally, Borrower must, concurrently with Borrower’s deposit of Excess Cash Flow, deliver to Administrative Agent the Excess Cash Flow Certificate related to such Excess Cash Flow deposit.
(d)    So long as no Default or Event of Default exists for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower and provided Borrower has expended all cash on hand, any Borrower may request disbursements from the Cash Management Account for the payment of the debt service payments (including, without limitation, the amortization payments referenced in Section 2(d) above) and other payments then due and payable under the Loan as well as Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions and Capital Expenditures, any extension fees, and any operating shortfalls relating to any of the Projects, provided that any such disbursement from the Cash Management Account for Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions and/or Capital Expenditures shall be subject to the same conditions as an Advance of Loan proceeds as set forth in Section 3.4 of the Loan Agreement as if such disbursement were an Advance of Loan proceeds (other than Section 3.4(a)(ii) which shall not apply; provided, however, that in connection with any request for disbursement from the Cash Management Account, Agent shall have the right to request updated title reports (at Borrower’s expense) for the Projects and, to the extent any such title report reveals any liens or other matters, which in Agent's good faith reasonable judgment jeopardize or otherwise impair its security interest (and/or the first priority thereof) in any Project, Agent shall have no further obligation to make disbursement from the Cash Management Account until such liens or other matters have been waived by Agent or satisfied in a manner reasonably acceptable to Agent, and following Agent’s written demand, Borrower shall promptly cause any such liens or other matters to be satisfied or released, of record, or bonded around and removed from the Project encumbered thereby or affirmatively insured over by the Title Company to Agent's reasonable satisfaction (or addressed the same in a manner that is consistent with the terms of the Loan Documents), or shall make other arrangements with respect to the discharge thereof and the releases thereof from the Project encumbered thereby as are acceptable to Agent, in its reasonable discretion). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account may, at Borrower’s option, be disbursed prior to available Loan proceeds for the payment of Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions and/or Capital Expenditures.
(e)    So long as no Default or Event of Default exists for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, Borrower may request disbursements from the Cash Management Account for the payment of REIT Level Expenses, provided that any such disbursement from the Cash Management Account shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (i) all outstanding costs and expenses related to Tenant Improvements, Leasing Commissions and/or Capital Expenditures (for which Borrower has received invoices) then due
SMRH:4869-6734-5045.18
-16-
0YWK-279636



and payable shall have been paid in full (or there shall exist no such costs or expenses); and (ii) Borrower shall have complied with the requirements set forth in Section 3.4 of the Loan Agreement as if such disbursement were an Advance of Loan proceeds (other than Section 3.4(a)(ii) which shall not apply).
(f)    Borrower shall submit a request for disbursement from the Cash Management Account no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed disbursement date. Upon receipt of a request for a disbursement, Administrative Agent will send a copy thereof to each other Lender and will otherwise notify each Lender of the proposed disbursement and the proposed date of funding. Borrower may request a disbursement of funds on deposit in the Cash Management Account no more than twice per month. Notwithstanding any term or condition to the contrary set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disburse proceeds from the Cash Management Account for REIT Level Expenses in excess of the CMA Account Disbursement Limit (as defined below).
For the purposes of the above provisions, the following terms will have the ascribed meanings:
Excess Cash Flow”: Means, for each calendar month, the amount by which (a) the Gross Revenue received by each Borrower during such month exceeds (b) the sum of (i) debt service payments and reserve deposits actually made by such Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, (ii) Operating Expenses (Cash Management) incurred with respect to the Projects in accordance with historical managerial practices provided such management fee (other than the management fees under the existing Property Management Agreements) may not exceed (x) provided, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the actual fees under the applicable Property Management Agreements and (y) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, the lesser of the actual fees under the applicable Property Management Agreements or market rate fees as reasonably determined by Administrative Agent, and (iii) provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, REIT Level Expenses allocated to the Projects (not to exceed (x) the Monthly CMA Allocation per month and (y) in any event, $3,250,000 in any 12-month period) (the “CMA Account Disbursement Limit”)); provided, for purposes of clarification, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for which Administrative Agent has sent notice to Borrower, Borrower is not permitted to pay REIT Level Expenses without the prior written consent of Agent and Required Lenders in their sole discretion and Borrower shall not be permitted to deduct REIT Level Expenses from its Gross Revenue in calculating Excess Cash Flow.  Operating Expenses (Cash Management) excludes replacement reserves, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and non-recurring capital expenditures. For the avoidance of doubt, Excess Cash Flow shall be calculated with respect to each Project individually and aggregated (so that Excess Cash Flow attributable to each Project is identifiable on the Excess Cash Flow Certificate and/or information provided in connection therewith).  Additionally, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, for purposes of identifying Excess Cash Flow, except as expressly set forth above, Excess Cash Flow shall not be reduced by costs and expenses that are not directly related to the Projects or the operation thereof or any distributions or fees paid to any direct or indirect interest holders in, or managers of, any of the Borrowers or Guarantor or KBS REIT III (regardless of whether such fees are required pursuant to the organizational documents of such entities or otherwise).

Monthly CMA Allocation”: Means $270,833.33 plus any Monthly CMA Allocation Rollover then available.

Monthly CMA Allocation Savings”: Means, for any given month, the positive difference (if any) in subtracting the actual amount disbursed from the Cash Management Account during such month from $270,833.33.
Operating Expenses (Cash Management)”:  Shall mean any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Projects then remaining encumbered by the Security Instruments during the applicable time period in question, including without limitation (a) taxes and assessments imposed upon the Projects payable by Borrower which are reasonably allocable to such time period, (b) bond assessments which are reasonably allocable to such time period, (c) insurance premiums for casualty insurance and liability insurance carried in connection with the Projects which are reasonably allocable to such time period, and (d) operating expenses incurred by Borrower for the management, operation, cleaning, leasing, maintenance and repair of the Projects which are reasonably allocable to such time period.  Operating Expenses (Cash Management) shall not include any interest, principal, loan fees, extension fees or other payments actually made on the Loan or capital expenditures (such as building improvements, tenant improvements or leasing costs).
REIT Level Expenses”: Means any REIT-level general and administrative costs and expenses reasonably allocated to (x) real property wholly-owned (directly or indirectly by Guarantor) and (y) REIT-level asset management fees, which amounts described in clauses (x) and (y), in the aggregate, shall not exceed the CMA Account Disbursement Limit.

Each Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, a first lien security interest in each of the Required Accounts, whether now existing or hereafter established, and all funds from time to time on deposit therein. Each Borrower will maintain each Required Account free and clear of any claim, lien or other encumbrance other than the security interest granted to Administrative Agent hereunder. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, to the maximum extent permissible by law, apply any or all of the funds in the Required Accounts, including accrued interest on such funds, if any, toward the unpaid balance of the Loan and/or to any other amounts which may be due and owing under the Loan Documents. The parties acknowledge and agree that each of the Required Accounts is a “deposit account” within the meaning of Section 9104 of the UCC. The parties further acknowledge and agree that California constitutes the “Administrative Agent’s jurisdiction” with respect to the perfection, the effect of perfection or non-perfection, and the priority of a security interest in a deposit account maintained at a bank under Section 9304(b)(1) of the UCC. Administrative Agent will at all times have “control” of the Required Accounts and all assets now or hereafter credited thereto within the meaning of Section 9106 of the UCC or Section 9104(a) of the UCC for purposes of maintaining its first and prior perfected security interest therein.
(k)Deeds of Trust. Each of the Deeds of Trust is being amended upon the Effective Date pursuant to the applicable Short Form Agreements, each of which is incorporated herein.
(l)Deleted Terms (Elimination of Revolving Portion and Borrowing Base Availability). Effective as of the McEwen Release Effective Date, the following definitions are hereby deleted from Section 1.1 of the Loan Agreement and all references in the Loan Documents thereto are hereby deleted in their entirety and are of no further force or effect: “Availability Amount”; “Borrowing Base Amount”; “Borrowing Base Loan Constant”; “Borrowing Base Value”; “Non-Revolving Portion”; and “Revolving Portion”.

that Administrative Agent reappraise any Project and in connection therewith order new Appraisals from time to time (but in no event more than once in any six-month period). Borrower shall pay the costs of any and all such Appraisals within ten (10) days of written demand by Administrative Agent. In addition to any of the rights of Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder to order Appraisals (including under Section 6.22), Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time order new Appraisals of the Projects during the existence of an Event of Default, and Borrower shall pay the costs of any and all such Appraisals within ten days of written demand by Administrative Agent, provided, however, that such appraised values shall not be used for the purposes of the calculation of the Aggregate Appraised Project Value.
Aggregate Commitment”: Means, as of any date of determination, the aggregate Commitments of all the Lenders as required under the terms of this Agreement.
