WHEREAS, during the course of Operating Partnership and Contributor closing the Contributor has proposed a cash shortfall, restricting its ability to timely Close;

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.Capitalization. All capitalized terms used herein will have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the Agreement, unless otherwise specified herein.

a. Title. Any amounts needed to ensure conveyance of clean, unencumbered, lien free title to both the Fixtures and Personal Property and real Property as submitted by any such vendor, contractor, or sub-contractor in due course of construction or preparation for opening; items will be repaid from Lender to such claimant promptly after submission.
