At the Effective Time (as defined below), and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with applicable Laws, YIP and each SAE Entity Member shall be merged with and into the Operating Partnership in the order specified in Exhibit D, whereby the separate existence of YIP and each SAE Entity Member shall cease, and the Operating Partnership shall continue its existence under Maryland law as the surviving entity (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Entity”).

Section 1.02 EFFECTIVE TIME. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, concurrently with or as soon as practicable after (i) the execution by the REIT and the Operating Partnership of the Underwriting Agreement and (ii) following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the Operating Partnership, YIP and each of the SAE Entity Members shall file articles of merger or similar documents with respect to each Merger (the “Certificates of Merger”) as may be required by applicable Laws, with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (“SDAT”), the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and each other jurisdiction applicable to each SAE Entity Member providing that each Merger shall become effective upon filing or at such later date and time set forth in the Certificate of Merger with respect to such Merger that is not more than thirty (30) days after the acceptance of the Certificate of Merger by the SDAT for record (the “Effective Time”), together with any certificates and other filings or recordings related thereto, in such forms as are required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable Laws.

Section 1.03 EFFECT OF THE MERGERS. At the Effective Times, which shall be in the order specified in Exhibit D, the effect of the Mergers shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificates of Merger and applicable Laws.

Section 1.05 CONVERSION OF YIP INTERESTS AND SAE ENTITY MEMBER INTERESTS.

(a) Under and subject to the terms and conditions of the respective Formation Transaction Documentation, as the result of an irrevocable election indicated on a Consent Form submitted by a Pre-Formation Participant or as a result of the failure of a Pre-Formation Participant to submit a Consent Form, each Pre-Formation Participant is irrevocably bound to accept and entitled to receive, as a result of and upon consummation of the Mergers or other Formation Transactions, a specified share of the sponsors’ value of the Younan Entities as a

whole in the form of the right to receive cash, REIT Shares and/or OP Units as calculated in Section 1.05(b).

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Mergers and without any action on the part of the parties hereto, except as set forth in Section 1.05(b), each YIP Interest and each SAE Entity Member Interest shall be converted automatically into the right to receive cash, OP Units and/or REIT Shares with an aggregate value equal to the Allocated Share of the Entity Value represented by such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable (collectively referred to as the “Merger Consideration”) and each holder that receives OP Units in the Mergers shall, upon receipt of such OP Units, be admitted as a limited partner of the Operating Partnership in accordance with the MLPA and the Operating Partnership Agreement.

Subject to Section 1.07 and Section 2.02(c), the form of payment of the Merger Consideration for each YIP Interest and SAE Entity Member Interest so converted shall be as follows:

(i) Cash: 100% of the Allocated Share of Entity Value for each YIP Interest and SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, held by a Pre-Formation Participant who is not an Accredited Investor shall be paid in cash.

(ii) OP Units. The Elected OP Unit Percentage of the Allocated Share of Entity Value for each YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, or portion thereof held by a Pre-Formation Participant who is an Accredited Investor shall be distributed in the form of a number of OP Units equal to the applicable portion of such Allocated Share divided by the IPO Price.

(iii) REIT Shares. The Elected REIT Shares Percentage of the Allocated Share of Entity Value for each YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest or portion thereof held by a Pre-Formation Participant who is an Accredited Investor shall be distributed in the form of a number of REIT Shares equal to the applicable portion of such Allocated Share divided by the IPO Price; provided that, to the extent such distribution of REIT Shares to the holder of the YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, would result in a violation of the restrictions on ownership and transfer set forth in Section 6.2.1(a) of the REIT’s charter (the “Ownership Limits”), such holder shall receive (x) the maximum number of REIT Shares that would not result in a violation of the Ownership Limits, and (y) that number of OP Units equal to the remaining number of REIT Shares included in the Elected REIT Shares Percentage for such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable.

(b) Each YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by the REIT, the Operating Partnership or any of their direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries (having been previously acquired by the REIT, the Operating Partnership or any such Subsidiary thereof pursuant to the other Formation Transactions) shall remain issued and outstanding, and no consideration shall be delivered hereunder in exchange therefor.

Section 1.06 CANCELLATION AND RETIREMENT OF YIP INTEREST AND SAE ENTITY MEMBER INTEREST. Each YIP Interest and SAE Entity Member Interest converted

into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.05(a) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, so converted shall thereafter cease to have any rights as a partner or member of YIP or any SAE Entity Member, as applicable, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration applicable thereto.

Section 1.07 FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. No fractional OP Units or REIT Shares shall be issued in the Mergers. All fractional OP Units or REIT Shares that a holder of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Mergers and the other Formation Transactions shall be aggregated, and each holder shall receive the number of whole OP Units or REIT Shares resulting from such aggregation and, in lieu of any fractional OP Unit or REIT Share resulting from such aggregation, an amount in cash determined by multiplying that fraction of an OP Unit or REIT Share, as applicable, to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled, by the IPO Price. No interest will be paid or will accrue on any cash paid or payable in lieu of any fractional OP Unit or REIT Share.

Section 1.08 CALCULATION OF MERGER CONSIDERATION. As soon as practicable following the determination of the IPO Price and prior to the Effective Time, all calculations relating to the Merger Consideration shall be performed in good faith by, or under the direction of, the REIT, and shall be final and binding upon the holders of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest.

Section 1.09 TRANSACTION COSTS. If the Closing occurs, the REIT and the Operating Partnership shall be solely responsible for all transaction costs and expenses of the REIT, the Operating Partnership and the Younan Entities in connection with the Formation Transactions and the IPO, which include, but are not limited to, the underwriting discounts and commissions.

Section 2.01 CLOSING. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 2.05, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in Article VII, the filing of the Certificates of Merger, the Effective Time and the closing of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be the day on which the REIT receives the proceeds from the IPO from the underwriters (the “Closing” or the “Closing Date”) in the order set forth on Exhibit D.

Section 2.02 PAYMENT OF MERGER CONSIDERATION.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity (or its successor in interest) shall deliver to each holder of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, whose YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, have been

converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.05(a) hereof, the Merger Consideration payable to such holder in the amounts and form provided in Section 1.05(a) hereof. The issuance of the OP Units and admission of the recipients thereof as limited partners of the Operating Partnership pursuant to Section 1.05(a) shall be evidenced by an amendment to Exhibit A of the Operating Partnership Agreement, and the Operating Partnership shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, an executed copy of such amendment to each Pre-Formation Participant receiving OP Units hereunder. Each certificate representing REIT Shares issuable as Merger Consideration shall bear the following legend:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE TRANSFEROR DELIVERS TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE PROPOSED SALE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS.

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON BENEFICIAL AND CONSTRUCTIVE OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFER FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE CORPORATION’S MAINTENANCE OF ITS STATUS AS A REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (THE “CODE”). SUBJECT TO CERTAIN FURTHER RESTRICTIONS AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THE CORPORATION’S CHARTER, (I) NO PERSON MAY BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN SHARES OF THE CORPORATION’S COMMON STOCK IN EXCESS OF % (IN VALUE OR NUMBER OF SHARES) OF THE OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF THE CORPORATION UNLESS SUCH PERSON IS AN EXCEPTED HOLDER (IN WHICH CASE THE EXCEPTED HOLDER LIMIT SHALL BE APPLICABLE); (II) NO PERSON MAY BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATION IN EXCESS OF % OF THE VALUE OF THE TOTAL OUTSTANDING SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATION, UNLESS SUCH PERSON IS AN EXCEPTED HOLDER (IN WHICH CASE THE EXCEPTED HOLDER LIMIT SHALL BE APPLICABLE); (III) NO PERSON MAY BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN CAPITAL STOCK THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE CORPORATION BEING “CLOSELY HELD” UNDER SECTION 856(h) OF THE CODE OR OTHERWISE CAUSE THE CORPORATION TO FAIL TO QUALIFY AS A REIT; AND (IV) NO PERSON MAY TRANSFER SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK IF SUCH TRANSFER WOULD RESULT IN THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATION BEING OWNED BY FEWER THAN 100 PERSONS. ANY PERSON WHO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWNS OR ATTEMPTS TO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN

SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK WHICH CAUSES OR WILL CAUSE A PERSON TO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK IN EXCESS OR IN VIOLATION OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MUST IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY THE CORPORATION. IF ANY OF THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OR OWNERSHIP SET FORTH IN (I) THROUGH (III) ABOVE ARE VIOLATED, THE SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY TRANSFERRED TO A TRUSTEE OF A TRUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF ONE OR MORE CHARITABLE BENEFICIARIES. IN ADDITION, THE CORPORATION MAY TAKE OTHER ACTIONS, INCLUDING REDEEMING SHARES UPON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPECIFIED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION IF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DETERMINES THAT OWNERSHIP OR A TRANSFER OR OTHER EVENT MAY VIOLATE THE RESTRICTIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE. FURTHERMORE, UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF CERTAIN EVENTS, ATTEMPTED TRANSFERS IN VIOLATION OF THE RESTRICTIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE MAY BE VOID AB INITIO. ALL CAPITALIZED TERMS IN THIS LEGEND HAVE THE MEANINGS DEFINED IN THE CHARTER OF THE CORPORATION, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH, INCLUDING THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OWNERSHIP, WILL BE FURNISHED TO EACH HOLDER OF CAPITAL STOCK OF THE CORPORATION ON REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE. REQUESTS FOR SUCH A COPY MAY BE DIRECTED TO THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION AT ITS PRINCIPAL OFFICE.

(b) The Surviving Entity (or its successor in interest) shall not be liable to any holder of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, for any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(c) So long as some portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to a Younan Entity is in the form of OP Units, the parties hereto intend and agree that, for United States federal income tax purposes, the Merger of each such entity shall constitute an “assets-over” partnership merger within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(3)(i), and, as a result, that (i) any payment of cash or REIT Shares for the YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, of such holder in such entity shall be treated as a sale of such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, by the holder and a purchase of such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, by the Operating Partnership for the cash and/or REIT Shares so paid under the terms of this Agreement in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.708-1(c)(4), and (ii) each such holder of the YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, who accepts cash and/or REIT Shares shall explicitly agree and consent (the “Sale Consent”) to such treatment in their Consent Form as a condition to electing such consideration. To the extent the Operating Partnership acquires any YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest as described above, or previously acquired such interest, for United States federal income tax purposes the receipt by the Operating Partnership of the portion of property attributable to such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, shall be treated as a distribution by YIP or a SAE Entity Member, as applicable, in redemption of such YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as

applicable. Notwithstanding Section 1.05(b) and any holder’s election as to the form of their Merger Consideration, if any holder (other than a non-accredited investor), fails to execute a Sale Consent prior to the Closing, such holder’s Merger Consideration shall consist solely of OP Units. Any cash paid as the Merger Consideration to a non-accredited investor for a YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest shall be paid only after the receipt of a Sale Consent from such holder.

Section 2.03 TAX WITHHOLDING. The Operating Partnership, YIP and each SAE Entity Member as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, such amounts required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of YIP Interest or SAE Entity Member Interest, as applicable, in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 2.04 FURTHER ACTION. If, at any time after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall determine or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Entity the right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of YIP or any SAE Entity Member, as applicable, acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Entity as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers or otherwise to carry out this Agreement, the Surviving Entity shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of YIP or any SAE Entity Member, as applicable, or otherwise, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of YIP or any SAE Entity Member, as applicable, or otherwise, all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Surviving Entity or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

Section 2.05 TERM OF THE AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall terminate automatically if (i) the initial registration statement of the REIT for the IPO (the “Registration Statement”) has not been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by August 31, 2010, or (ii) the Mergers shall not have been consummated on or prior to March 31, 2011 (such date is hereinafter referred to as the “Outside Date”).

Section 2.06 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. In the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason, all obligations on the part of the Operating Partnership, YIP and each SAE Entity Member under this Agreement shall terminate, except that the obligations set forth in Article VIII shall survive; it being understood and agreed, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that if this Agreement is terminated because one or more of the conditions to a non-breaching party’s obligations under this Agreement are not satisfied by the Outside Date as a result of the other party’s material breach of a covenant, representation, warranty or other obligation under this Agreement or any other Formation Transaction Documentation, the non-breaching party’s

right to pursue all legal remedies with respect to such breach will survive such termination unimpaired.

If this Agreement shall terminate for any reason prior to completion of the Formation Transactions, the Younan Entities shall bear all transaction costs and expenses related thereto in proportion to their Allocable Percentage (as defined in Schedule II hereto).

ARTICLE III

Section 3.02 DUE AUTHORIZATION. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Formation Transaction Documentation (including each agreement, document and instrument executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement or the other Formation Transaction Documentation) by the Operating Partnership has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary actions required of the Operating Partnership.

Section 8.09 SEVERABILITY. Each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted so as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included herein.

SCHEDULE II

Calculation of Target Entity Value

For purposes of each Merger Agreement, “Entity Value” of the particular target entity subject to such Merger Agreement shall be calculated pursuant to the formula set forth below. Capitalized terms used in this Schedule II shall have the meanings set forth below and capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.

EV = AP x [TIV/(1-COP) –AA] + EA;

provided, however, that if the resulting Entity Value for a target entity subject to a Merger Agreement is a negative amount (a “Net Deficit”), then the REIT shall exercise one of the following options, as determined by the REIT in its sole and absolute discretion: (A) reduction of the Entity Value attributable to either YIP or YPI, or any combination of the two, by an aggregate amount equal to the Net Deficit plus $100,000, with the net effect that the recalculated Entity Value for such target entity is at least $100,000, or (B) selection of the target entity to which the Net Deficit is attributable as an Eliminated Entity,

where:

EV = Entity Value;
AP = Allocable Percentage;
TIV = Total Inside Value;
COP = Cash Out Percentage;
AA = Aggregate Adjustment; and
EA = Entity Adjustment.

“Actual Balance” shall mean: (i) with respect to each Existing Loan to be assumed in connection with the IPO, the principal amount of and past due unpaid interest on such Existing Loan as of the IPO Closing Date; (ii) with respect to each Existing Loan to be prepaid, repaid or refinanced in connection with the IPO, the principal amount of and past due unpaid interest on such Existing Loan to be prepaid, repaid or refinanced; (iii) the actual amount of cash to be paid to Passco Younan Fund I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Passco”), or an affiliated entity as of the IPO Closing Date pursuant to the Passco Agreement; and (iv) the actual amount of cash to be paid to Chung Hsien International LP, a Texas limited partnership (“CHI”), or an affiliated entity as of the IPO Closing Date pursuant to the CHI Agreement.

“Aggregate Adjustment” shall mean the sum (which may be a positive or negative number) of all Entity Adjustments for every target entity, excluding Eliminated Entities.

“Allocable Percentage” shall mean with respect to each target entity subject to a Merger Agreement, the percentage set forth opposite its name in Appendix B to this Schedule II; provided, however, that in the event a target entity is selected as or otherwise becomes for any reason an Eliminated Entity, then: (i) the Allocable Percentage for each remaining target entity subject to a Merger Agreement shall be recalculated as a fraction, the numerator of which is the

original Allocable Percentage for such target entity and the denominator of which is (A) 100 minus (B) the Allocable Percentage of the Eliminated Entity; and (ii) the Allocable Percentage of the Eliminated Entity shall be zero and provided, further, that in the event a target entity is not included in the Formation Transactions pursuant to a merger but a portion of the Pre-Formation Interests in such entity is contributed to the Operating Partnership or a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership (such entity, a “Contribution Target Entity”), then the Allocable Percentage for the Contribution Target Entity and for each remaining target entity subject to a Merger Agreement shall be proportionately adjusted to take into account the portion of the Pre-Formation Interests in the Contribution Target Entity that will not be so contributed.

“Base Balance” shall mean: (i) with respect to each Existing Loan, the principal amount of such Existing Loan set forth on Appendix C to this Schedule II; (ii) with respect to the Passco Agreement $13,835,000; and (iii) with respect to the CHI Agreement $15,568,039.

“Cash Out Percentage” shall mean the sum (with such sum of percentages expressed as a decimal) for all target entities of a percentage calculated for each target entity as follows: multiply the aggregate Allocated Shares with respect to such target entity held by all non-accredited investors in such target entity by the Allocable Percentage for such target entity.
