(e) A new definition of “Amendment Date” is hereby added to the “Definitions” section of the Loan Agreement in alphabetical order, as follows: “Amendment Date” shall mean November 8, 2016.

1.2. Amendment to Section 3.11(a). Section 3.11(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“(a) (i) Lender will establish and maintain an Eligible Account (which may be a subaccount of the Cash Management Account) for the purpose of reserving amounts in respect of Approved Redevelopment Costs of Redevelopment Projects (the “Redevelopment Project Reserve Account”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except with respect to any amounts deposited into the Redevelopment Project Reserve Account pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) below and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in lieu of making any required deposit into the Redevelopment Project Reserve Account, Borrower may elect in writing by notice to Lender, in Borrower’s sole discretion, to designate all or any portion of the undrawn balance of the Future Advance Amount (to the extent not previously designated for use on any other Redevelopment Project) for application to one or more Redevelopment Projects, and such election, unless revoked by written notice from Borrower to Lender (which notice Borrower may elect to give in Borrower’s sole discretion) shall be deemed to constitute available funds in the Redevelopment Project Reserve Account; provided that such revocation by Borrower shall only be permitted so long as Borrower has not incurred any costs in respect of such Redevelopment Project that have been or are expected to be funded by advances by Future Advance Lender of the Future Advance Amount or has otherwise demonstrated to Lender’s reasonable satisfaction that the conditions set forth in Section 5.22(b)(ii) are satisfied as of the date of such revocation.

(ii) On or prior to the Amendment Date Borrower shall have deposited into the Redevelopment Project Reserve Account an amount equal to $30,000,000 (the “Lump Sum Redevelopment Deposit”). Commencing on and including the

Payment Date occurring in December 2016 and on each Payment Date thereafter for so long as Third Party In-Place NOI as of the most recently ended Test Period does not exceed the Third Party In-Place NOI Threshold, Borrower shall deposit into the Redevelopment Project Reserve Account an amount equal to $3,300,000 (the “Monthly Redevelopment Reserve Deposit”); provided; however that the Monthly Redevelopment Reserve Deposits will not be required at any time (x) during which a Cash Flow Sweep Period (other than a Cash Flow Sweep Period caused by a Cash Flow Sweep Trigger Event pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition thereof) is in effect or (y) the SHLD EBITDAR Rent Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.50(x).”

1.3. Amendment to Section 5.22(a). Section 5.22(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following sentences to the end of such clause (a):

“From and after the Amendment Date and for so long as there are undrawn amounts of the Future Advance Amount (to the extent not previously designated by Borrower to fund a specific Redevelopment Project), all new Redevelopment Plans and Budgets submitted by Borrower to Lender shall provide that the source of funding of such Redevelopment Projects shall be the Future Advance Amount and the costs shall be funded from the Future Advance Amount for so long as such amounts are available and subject to the satisfaction of all conditions for the advance of such funds (it being understood that with respect to any Redevelopment Project that has been approved by Lender and the conditions set forth in Section 5.22(b) have been satisfied, if the conditions of Section 5.22(c)(ii) or (vi) are not satisfied despite Borrower’s good faith efforts to satisfy such conditions or such conditions are waived by Lender, then Borrower shall be permitted to pay the costs related to such Redevelopment Project with unrestricted cash; provided that in such circumstances Borrower shall diligently pursue the satisfaction of such conditions and cause Property Owner to request a draw of the Future Advance Amount promptly following satisfaction of such conditions). Notwithstanding anything in this clause (a) to the contrary, with respect to the first $80,000,000 of new Redevelopment Plans and Budgets submitted to Lender from and after the Amendment Date, all references to $5,000,000 in this clause (a) shall mean $15,000,000 and all references to $7,500,000 in this clause (a) shall mean $15,000,000, in each case, for the purposes of Section 5.22(a) only, and shall not modify the definition of “Major Redevelopment Project” or the amounts referenced therein with respect to any other provision of the Loan Documents.”
