PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.5

This PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of May 6, 2021, is by and between Roseland residential Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Pledgor”), and jpmorgan chase bank, n.a., in its capacity as administrative agent (together with its successors and permitted assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), for the benefit of itself and the Lenders (as defined below) (the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are referred to herein collectively as the “Secured Parties” and each a “Secured Party”) under the Credit Agreement described below.

RECITALS:

Xxxx-Xxxx Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”) has entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the lenders and letter of credit issuing banks party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement (including the recitals) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement, and, except as otherwise expressly provided, the rules of interpretation set forth in the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, mutatis mutandis, as if fully set forth herein.

The Borrower owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the equity interests in the Pledgor. The Pledgor will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement.

It is a condition precedent to the making of loans and the issuance of letters of credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement that the Pledgor pledge and grant the security interests described in this Agreement, and the Pledgor wishes to pledge and grant a security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as herein provided.

Therefore, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.
ASSIGNMENT AND PLEDGE

1.1. Grant. As security for the prompt and complete payment of the Obligations, and to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrower, the Pledgor hereby collaterally assigns, conveys, mortgages, pledges, hypothecates and transfers to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and grants to the Administrative Agent a continuing Lien on and security interest in the following:

(a) the Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to the deposit account described on Annex A hereto, including all cash and other assets on deposit therein and all proceeds thereof; and

(b) all of the Pledgor’s present and future rights to receive distributions and other Restricted Payments from Roseland Residential L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“RRLP”), whether arising under the governing documents of RRLP, at law or otherwise (clauses (a) and (b) collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”).

1.2. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement creates a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and will remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and all Commitments have terminated. If, at any time for any reason (including the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower, the Pledgor or any other Person or the appointment of any intervenor or conservator of, or agent or similar official for the Borrower, the Pledgor or any other Person or any of their respective properties), any payment received by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by such Person, this Agreement will continue to be effective or will be reinstated, if necessary, as if such payment had not been made.

1.3. Authorization to File Statements. The Pledgor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file in any Uniform Commercial Code filing office financing statements and amendments naming the Administrative Agent as the secured party and indicating the Pledged Collateral as the collateral and certain other information required by the Uniform Commercial Code for the sufficiency and acceptance for filings of any financing statement or amendment, in each case as is necessary or required by applicable law in order to create, perfect, maintain and preserve first priority Liens on the Pledged Collateral (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances having priority over such Liens of the Administrative Agent by operation of law) in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to file financing statements or continuation statements, or be responsible for maintaining the security interests purported to be created as described herein. The financing statements may indicate some or all of the Pledged Collateral on the financing statement, whether specifically or generally. The Pledgor also ratifies its authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed in any UCC jurisdiction any like financing statements or amendments thereto as set forth in this Section 1.3 if filed prior to the date hereof.

(f) exercise any or all other rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent under applicable law or the Loan Documents or any other agreement between the parties.

3.2. Power of Attorney. The Pledgor irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, each with full power of substitution, as the Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and proxy with respect to the Pledged Collateral, in the Pledgor’s name or in such Person’s name or otherwise, and at the Pledgor’s expense, to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without notice to or the consent of the Pledgor to the extent permitted by applicable law:

The Pledgor ratifies and confirms all actions taken by the Administrative Agent or its agents pursuant to this power of attorney in accordance herewith.

3.3. Other Rights of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent will have, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement: (i) all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under applicable law, as if such rights and remedies were fully set forth in this Agreement, and (ii) all of the rights, protections and indemnities set forth in the Credit Agreement, which provisions are incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement.

(b) The Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time release or relinquish any right, remedy or Lien it has with respect to a particular item of Pledged Collateral without thereby releasing, relinquishing or in any way affecting its rights, remedies or Lien with respect to any other item of Pledged Collateral.

3.4. Disposition of Pledged Collateral. Upon the written request by the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) The Pledgor agrees, promptly and at its own expense, to assemble any or all of the Pledged Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Administrative Agent will be entitled to sell the Pledged Collateral on any commercially reasonable terms, and the Pledgor agrees that a private sale or a sale on extended payment terms, or in exchange for property, stock or other consideration will not in and of itself be deemed to be commercially unreasonable. The Pledged Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels. Any Secured Party may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral sold at any public sale and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral sold at any private sale, including by a credit bid.

(c) The Administrative Agent may restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers at any sale as to their number, nature of business, financial or business expertise, net worth or financial resources and investment intention or on the basis of any other factors that are commercially reasonable.

(d) The Pledgor expressly agrees that the Administrative Agent need not give more than 10 days’ prior written notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale of Pledged Collateral or of the time after which a private sale of the Pledged Collateral may take place, and that such notice will constitute reasonable notice under all circumstances. The Administrative Agent will not be obligated to hold any sale pursuant to any such notice and may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and a subsequent sale may be held at the time and place designated in such announcement without further notice or publication. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor irrevocably waives any right it may have to make a demand of performance or other demand, advertisement, judicial hearing or notice to it or any other Person in connection with the collection, sale or other disposition of, or realization upon, any or all of the Pledged Collateral.

- 6 -

(e) The Administrative Agent may settle, pay or discharge any or all taxes, Liens, claims and other charges with respect to the Pledged Collateral. All sums expended by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.4(e) will constitute Obligations secured by the Liens created by the Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent, nor any other Secured Party will have any duty to take any action authorized by this Section 3.4(e), and no sale of Pledged Collateral will be deemed to have been commercially unreasonable by reason of the Administrative Agent’s decision not to take any such action.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Administrative Agent has commenced exercise of the foregoing rights and remedies, upon the cessation of any and all Events of Default, the Administrative Agent may continue or suspend its exercise of the foregoing rights and remedies.

3.5. No Marshaling or Right of Redemption.

(a) Except to the extent required by applicable law, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party will be required to marshal any Pledged Collateral or any guaranties of the Obligations, or to resort to any item of Pledged Collateral or any guaranty in any particular order, and the Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral and any guaranties will be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor irrevocably waives, and agrees that it will not invoke or assert, any law requiring or relating to the marshaling of collateral or any other law which could reasonably be expected to cause a delay in or impede the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor irrevocably waives, and agrees that it will not invoke or assert, any rights to equity of redemption or other rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium that it may have in equity, at law, or otherwise with respect to any Pledged Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the sale or other transfer pursuant to this Agreement of any right, title or interest of the Pledgor in any item of Pledged Collateral will operate to permanently divest the Pledgor and all Persons claiming under or through the Pledgor of such right, title or interest, and will be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, to any and all claims by the Pledgor or any such Person with respect to such item of Pledged Collateral.

3.6. Application of Proceeds. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, or after an exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent, any cash held by the Administrative Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Administrative Agent from any realization upon the Pledged Collateral may be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for the payment of the Obligations and applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

- 7 -

3.7. Administrative Agent’s Duties.

(a) The grant to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement of any right or power does not impose upon the Administrative Agent any duty to exercise such right or power. The Administrative Agent will have no obligation to take any steps to preserve any claim or other right against any Person or with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives all claims against the Administrative Agent or its agents arising out of the repossession, taking, retention, storage, operation or sale of the Pledged Collateral except to the extent such actions shall be determined to amount to gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives any claim it may have based on the allegation or fact that the price obtained for Pledged Collateral sold at a private sale made in accordance with this Agreement was less than could have been obtained for the same Pledged Collateral at a public sale. Subject to the following sentence, all risk of loss, damage, diminution in value, or destruction of the Pledged Collateral will be borne by the Pledgor. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent will have no responsibility to the Pledgor for any act or omission of the Administrative Agent or its agents, except to the extent such act or failure to act shall be determined to be gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Person as determined in a final non-appealable judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable for special, punitive indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Administrative Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(c) The Administrative Agent does not and will not make any express or implied representations or warranties with respect to any Pledged Collateral or other property released to the Pledgor or its successors and assigns.

(d) The Administrative Agent will be accountable only for such proceeds as the Administrative Agent actually receives as a result of the exercise of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and delivery or other accounting of such proceeds or the Pledged Collateral by the Administrative Agent to the Pledgor or the assignee of the Obligations will discharge the Administrative Agent of all liability therefor.

(e) Except as expressly set forth herein or as required under applicable law, the Administrative Agent will have no other duties or obligations under this Agreement or with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

3.8. Indemnity and Expenses. The Pledgor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, its directors, officers, employees, agents and their respective Affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities (including environmental liabilities), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (“Losses”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent or its directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates by any Person (including any Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of (a) this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, any amendments, waivers or releases, and any enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or (b) any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that the Borrower will not be liable to the Administrative Agent, its directors, officers, employees, agents and their respective Affiliates for any portion of such Losses resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 3.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the earlier resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.
