(g)Qualified Government Debt. Notwithstanding the restrictions in subsection (f) above, consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall not be required for the Loan Parties to incur Debt for borrowed money to a Governmental Authority under the CARES Act or any other federal or state governmental program intended to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic so long as the Borrowing Base Assets and the Equity Interests in the Initial Grantors (as defined below) do not become subject to any Liens in connection with such Debt (“Qualified Government Debt”); provided, however, that 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Qualified Government Debt shall be used, in the Borrower’s discretion, only for Permitted Uses or to repay the Obligations (as such term is defined in each of the Facility and the Other Facilities) under the Facility and the Other Facilities.

For purposes of this Amendment, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Equity Offering” means the issuance of any public common Equity Interests, 144A Equity Interests or Preferred Interests (including Preferred Interests convertible into common Equity Interests) by the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor.

“Permitted Debt Transaction” means the incurrence of Debt for borrowed money by any Loan Party consented to under Section 2(f)(i) above or expressly permitted under this Amendment during the Waiver Period.

Any breach by any Loan Party of subsections (d), (e) or (f) of this Section 2 shall be an immediate Event of Default under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement.

SECTION 3.Reporting. Notwithstanding the limited waiver of the Subject Provisions pursuant to Section 2(a) above, nothing in this Amendment shall modify, affect or waive the Borrower’s continuing obligation to comply with the reporting requirements set forth in Section 5.03 of the 2019 Term Loan Agreement during the Waiver Period (as if the Subject Provisions had not been waived) or otherwise (including, without limitation, the Borrower’s obligation to provide a schedule of the computations used by the Parent Guarantor in determining compliance with the covenants contained in Section 5.04 (as if the Subject Provisions had not been waived) under Section 5.03(c)); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties notice of Defaults relating to the Section 5.04 financial covenants during the Waiver Period. In addition to the existing reporting requirements in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement, during the Waiver Period the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties, on or before the last day of each of April 2020, May 2020 and June 2020, and thereafter on or before the last day of each calendar quarter commencing with the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2020, (i) forecasted balance sheets and statements of cash flows of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries for the immediately following three month period along with comparisons against the same period for the prior year (the “Forecasts”) and (ii) historical balance sheets and statements of cash flows of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries for the immediately prior twelve calendar month

period along with comparisons to any Forecasts previously delivered for such period pursuant to clause (i) or otherwise available. Further, together with the Forecasts, balance sheets and cash flow statements furnished pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Borrower will provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties summary reports of (x) any application made by the Borrower, the Parent Guarantor or their respective Subsidiaries for funding under the CARES Act or any other federal or state governmental program intended to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (each, a “Stimulus Program”) and (y) amounts received by the Borrower, the Parent Guarantor or their respective Subsidiaries under any Stimulus Program, and reasonably detailed accountings of the uses thereof.

SECTION 4.Equity Interests. Within 30 days after the date hereof (subject to extension by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion for up to 30 additional days), the Borrower will cause the applicable Loan Parties to (i) modify the organizational documents of each of the fee owners and TRS Lessees of each of the existing Borrowing Base Assets described on Schedule I hereto (the “Initial Grantors”) to opt-in to Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the state of its jurisdiction of formation in a manner satisfactory to the Agents and (ii) deliver to the Agents certificated Equity Interests for each of the Initial Grantors and stock powers and membership interest powers (as the case may be) with respect thereto executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agents.

SECTION 5.Real Property Collateral. Within 15 days after the date hereof the Borrower will provide to the Agents updated property addresses and legal descriptions for each Borrowing Base Asset and evidence of flood insurance for any Borrowing Base Asset that is a Flood Hazard Property. The Borrower will also promptly provide to the Agents, and in any event not later than 15 days after the date on which the same shall be requested in writing to the Borrower from the Agent or a Lender, such other information reasonably requested by a Lender to complete its flood review and approval process. Within 60 days after the date hereof (subject to extension by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), the Borrower will (a) cause those Initial Grantors holding fee and leasehold interests in the Borrowing Base Assets described on Schedule II hereto (the “Initial Mortgaged Properties”) to provide to the Agents, for each Borrowing Base Asset, those items required by subsection (d) of the definition of Collateral Deliverables, Section 3.01(a)(vi), Section 3.01(a)(vii)(C), Section 3.01(a)(viii), Section 3.01(a)(ix) and Section 3.01(a)(x), in each case as set forth in the 2017 Credit Agreement (as amended pursuant to Section 1 of this Amendment), (b) provide evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, of the recordation in the applicable local recording or filing office of a memorandum of lease for each Operating Lease relating to the Borrowing Base Assets and (c) provide to the Agents reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment in full of any all title insurance premiums, title company service charges, record and lien search charges, filing fees and charges, mortgage recording taxes and intangible taxes incurred in connection with the Mortgage Policies, Collateral diligence and the recordation of the Approved Real Estate Documents (as defined below). To the extent the Borrower is unable to either (x) obtain a Mortgage Policy for a Borrowing Base Asset or (y) record the Approved Real Estate Documents within such 60 day period due to the closure of the applicable local recording or filing office, the Administrative Agent shall grant one or more extensions of such 60 day period for the delivery of such Mortgage Policy and/or to record such Approved Real Estate Documents as reasonably required to account for such closure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Arrangers, in consultation with the Required Lenders, are reasonably satisfied that the record owner and lien searches for a Borrowing Base Asset confirm fee and leasehold ownership thereof in the proper Loan Parties and show no Liens of record other than Permitted Liens, the Arrangers may waive the requirement in subsection (d)(ii) of the definition of Collateral Deliverables that the Borrower provide a Mortgage Policy for such Borrowing Base Asset.

SECTION 8.Intercreditor Agreement.

The terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement that refer to the Secured Parties shall be binding on all Secured Parties to the same extent as if each Secured Party were a party thereto. As among the Lender Parties, the Intercreditor Agreement shall be treated as a Loan Document. The Borrower and each of the Guarantors acknowledge that the Agents are entering into the Intercreditor Agreement as of the Amendment Effective Date and that the Intercreditor Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time, governs the relationships among the Agents with respect to the Collateral and use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 9.Reserved.

SECTION 10.Representations and Warranties. Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants that:

(a)The representations and warranties contained in each of the Loan Documents (as amended or supplemented to date, including pursuant to this Amendment) to which it is a party are, other than with respect to the Subject Provisions, true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Amendment Effective Date, before and after giving effect to this Amendment, as though made on and as of such date (except for any such representation and warranty that, by its terms, refers to an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date); provided, however, that this clause (a) shall exclude the representations contained in Section 5.01(bb) of the 2019 Term Loan Agreement to the extent the perfection of any security interest in Collateral is intended by the terms of this Amendment to occur after the Amendment Effective Date.

(b)Such Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate and other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment.

(c)This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitutes such Loan Party’s legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

(d)The execution and delivery of this Amendment does not (i) contravene any provision of the organizational documents of such Loan Party or its general partner or managing member or

(ii) violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award applicable to such Loan Party.

(e)Other than any Default or Event of Default that would exist absent the limited waiver of the Subject Provisions pursuant to Section 2(a) above, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the entering into of this Amendment by any Loan Party.
