NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10), and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
| 1. | Capitalized Terms. The capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Partnership Agreement. |
| 2. | Rejection of Proposed Investments; Investment Period. The Partners acknowledge that as of May 16, 2018, the QuadReal Representative has rejected at least three (3) Proposed Investments presented pursuant to Sections 4.1 and 6.6(c), and that the Identification Period has terminated.

| a. | Notwithstanding anything in the Partnership Agreement, including Sections 4.1(b), 4.1(c) or 6.3(c) to the contrary, but subject to Section 2(b) above, the Partners agree that so long as the General Partner has not given an End of Formal Allocation Notice or a Cessation Notice, the General Partner shall be permitted to incur pursuit costs and expenses, including without limitation, costs and expenses of due diligence, legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with pursuing a Proposed Investment as a Partnership Expense, in an amount not to exceed $150,000.00 per Proposed Investment prior to it becoming an Approved Investment; provided, however, the aggregate amount of pursuit costs incurred with respect to Proposed Investments that do not subsequently become Approved Investments in a particular year may not exceed the amount allocated to dead deal costs in the then-current Approved Partnership Budget for such year; provided, further, the General Partner shall only be reimbursed for pursuit costs for a Proposed Investment if the initial underwriting for the Proposed Investment provides for a LAFIRR equal to at least the Minimum LAFIRR.

| b. | If the Partnership incurs pursuit costs for a Proposed Investment, and the Executive Committee rejects such Proposed Investment pursuant to Section 4.1, then the Proposed Investment may be offered to an Applicable Vehicle in accordance with the Allocation Policy; provided, however, if such Applicable Vehicle pursues such Proposed Investment, then (i) the Partnership shall assign all contracts and other due diligence materials in its possession or control with respect to such Proposed Investment to such Applicable Vehicle, and (ii) such Applicable Vehicle shall reimburse the Partnership for any pursuit costs actually incurred with respect to such Proposed Investment. |
