“SIR” means Select Income REIT, a real estate investment trust organized under the laws of the State of Maryland.
(b) The Credit Agreement is amended by restating the definitions of “EBITDA”, “Funds From Operations”, “Tangible Net Worth”, “Total Asset Value”, “Unconsolidated Affiliate”, “Unencumbered Asset Value” and “Unencumbered Net Operating Income” set forth in Section 1.1. thereof in their entirety as follows:
“EBITDA” means, with respect to a Person for a given period and without duplication, the sum of (a) net income (or loss) of such Person for such period determined on a consolidated basis exclusive of the following (but only to the extent included in the determination of such net income (loss) for such period): (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) interest expense; (iii) income tax expense; (iv) extraordinary or nonrecurring items, including without limitation, gains and losses from the sale of operating Properties (but not from the sale of Properties developed for the purpose of sale); and (v) in the case of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, equity in the earnings (or loss) of Unconsolidated Affiliates and each of GOV and SIR (but only in the case of GOV
and, after it ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower, SIR, if such Person would be an Unconsolidated Affiliate but for the last sentence of the definition of that term); plus (b) in the case of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries cash dividends (other than extraordinary cash dividends or distributions) received by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries from GOV or SIR during such period; plus (c) such Person’s pro rata share of EBITDA of its Unconsolidated Affiliates. Straight line rent leveling adjustments required under GAAP and amortization of intangibles pursuant to FASB ASC 805 shall be disregarded in the determination of EBITDA (to the extent such adjustments would otherwise have been included in the determination of EBITDA). For purposes of this definition, nonrecurring items shall be deemed to include (x) gains and losses on early extinguishment of Indebtedness, (y) non-cash severance and other non-cash restructuring charges and (z) transaction costs of acquisitions not permitted to be capitalized pursuant to GAAP.

“Tangible Net Worth” means, as of any given time: (a) the unallocated gross book value (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) of all real estate assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries that constitute Properties at such time; plus (b) the book value of other assets (excluding any real estate assets) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; less (c) the book value of the Borrower’s Investment in GOV and SIR; less (d) all amounts appearing on the assets side of a consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower for assets separately classified as intangible assets under GAAP (except for allocations of property purchase prices pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards number 141 and the like); less (e) all Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis; less (f) all other liabilities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis (except liabilities resulting from allocations of property purchase prices pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards number 141 and the like).

reserve, or other similar arrangements and prior to allocations of property purchase prices pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards number 141 and the like); (c) the value of the Borrower’s equity Investments in GOV and SIR as of the end of such fiscal quarter, such value determined at the lower of cost or Fair Market Value; (d) all Marketable Securities, cash and cash equivalents; (e) accounts receivable that are not (i) owing in excess of 90 days (or one year in the case of any Governmental Authority of the United States of America (but not political subdivisions thereof)) as of the end of such fiscal quarter or (ii) being contested in writing by the obligor in respect thereof (in which case only such portion being contested shall be excluded from Total Asset Value); (f) prepaid taxes and operating expenses as of the end of such fiscal quarter; (g) the book value of all Developable Property as of the end of such fiscal quarter; (h) the book value of all other tangible assets (excluding land or other real property) as of the end of such fiscal quarter; (i) the book value of all Unencumbered Mortgage Notes as of the end of such fiscal quarter; and (j) the Borrower’s pro rata share of the preceding items (other than those referred to in clause (c)) of any Unconsolidated Affiliate of the Borrower.
“Unconsolidated Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any other Person in whom such Person holds an Investment, which Investment is accounted for in the financial statements of such Person on an equity basis of accounting and whose financial results would not be consolidated under GAAP with the financial results of such Person on the consolidated financial statements of such Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing (a) GOV shall not be considered to be an Unconsolidated Affiliate and (b) if at any time after the Second Amendment Date, SIR ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower, then in no event shall SIR be considered to be an Unconsolidated Affiliate.
“Unencumbered Asset Value” means, at any given time, the sum of: (a)(i) Net Operating Income from all Unencumbered Assets for the fiscal quarter most recently ending times (ii) 4 divided by (iii) the Capitalization Rate; and (b) the value of the Equity Interests in GOV and SIR owned by the Borrower, such value determined at the lower of cost or Fair Market Value, so long as such Equity Interests are not subject to any Liens (other than Permitted Liens of the types described in clauses (a) through (c) or (e) through (i) of the definition thereof) or to any Negative Pledge; and (c) unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents of the Borrower so long as such cash and Cash Equivalents are not subject to any Liens (other than Permitted Liens of the types described in clauses (a) through (c) or (e) through (i) of the definition thereof) or to any Negative Pledge. To the extent that Equity Interests of GOV and SIR owned by the Borrower would in the aggregate account for more than 20.0% of Unencumbered Asset Value, such excess shall be excluded. To the extent that Properties leased by the Borrower or a Guarantor pursuant to a ground lease would, in the aggregate, account for more than 5.0% of Unencumbered Asset Value, such excess shall be excluded. To the extent that the Net Operating Income of Unencumbered Non-Domestic Properties would account for more than 20.0% of Unencumbered Net Operating Income, such excess shall be excluded. With respect to any Unencumbered Asset acquired during such fiscal quarter, Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset shall be included in the calculation of Unencumbered Asset Value on a pro forma basis reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. Net Operating Income attributable to an Unencumbered Asset disposed of during the applicable fiscal quarter shall be excluded from the calculation of Unencumbered Asset Value.
“Unencumbered Net Operating Income” means the sum of (a) Net Operating Income from all Unencumbered Assets for the fiscal quarter most recently ending and (b) cash dividends received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from GOV or SIR during the fiscal quarter most recently ending.
(c) The Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following sentence to the end of the defined term “Excluded Subsidiary”:
In addition, each of SIR and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be an Excluded Subsidiary so long as (A) any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower owns any Equity Interest in SIR and (B) in the case of a Subsidiary of SIR, neither the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates (other than SIR and its Subsidiaries) owns any Equity Interest in such Subsidiary.
(d) The Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following sentence to the end of Section 1.2.:
For purposes of the definitions of “Adjusted EDITDA”, “EBITDA”, “Fixed Charges”, Funds From Operations”, “Tangible Net Worth”, “Total Asset Value”, “Total Indebtedness”, “Unsecured Debt Service” and “Unsecured Indebtedness”, and when determining compliance with the financial covenants in Sections 9.1.(a), 9.1.(b), 9.1.(c), 9.1.(d), 9.1.(e), and 9.1.(f), none of SIR and its Subsidiaries shall be considered to be Subsidiaries of the Borrower so long as (A) any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower owns any Equity Interest in SIR and (B) in the case of a Subsidiary of SIR, neither the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates (other than SIR and its Subsidiaries) owns any Equity Interest in such Subsidiary.
(e) The Credit Agreement is amended by restating Section 9.1.(f) in its entirety as follows:
(f) Minimum Tangible Net Worth. The Borrower shall not permit Tangible Net Worth at any time to be less than (i) $3,000,000,000 plus (ii) 75% of the Net Proceeds of all Equity Issuances effected by the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than Equity Issuances to the Borrower or any Subsidiary) after March 31, 2012.
(f) The Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following parenthetical to the end of Section 9.1.(g)(ii):
(provided that any Investments in Foreign Subsidiaries that are Subsidiaries of SIR will not be treated as Investments for the purposes of this clause (ii))
(g) The Credit Agreement is amended by (i) replacing the period at the end of clause (iv) of Section 9.1.(h) with a semicolon and (ii) adding a new proviso to the end of Section 9.1.(h) to read as follows:
provided that Investments by SIR and its Subsidiaries in Assets Under Development, Mortgage Receivables and Unimproved Land will not be treated as Investments for the purposes of subsection (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 9.1(h).
(h) The Credit Agreement is amended by amending Section 9.1.(i) in full to read as follows:
(i) Dividends and Other Restricted Payments. If an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, declare or make any Restricted Payments except that (i) the Borrower may declare and make cash distributions to its shareholders in an aggregate amount not to exceed the minimum amount necessary for the Borrower to remain in compliance with Section 7.11. and Subsidiaries may pay Restricted Payments to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary; provided that if an Event of Default specified in Section 10.1.(a), Section 10.1.(e) or Section 10.1.(f) shall exist, or if as a result of the occurrence of any other Event of Default any of the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 10.2.(a), the Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, make any Restricted Payments to any Person (except that Subsidiaries may pay Restricted Payments to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary); and (ii) SIR may declare and make Restricted Payments to its shareholders.
