2.1 Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Bank hereby extends to the Borrower a line of credit facility (the “Facility”) under which the Bank may make loans to the Borrower for the benefit of a Fund during the term of this Agreement in such amounts as the Borrower may from time to time request (the “Loans” and each, a “Loan”), up to an aggregate principal amount equal to the Maximum Amount, provided, however, that the Bank will not make a Loan to the Borrower for the benefit of a Fund if, after giving effect to such Loan, (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding for the Fund would exceed the Maximum Amount or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding for the benefit of any Fund would exceed the Borrowing Limit with respect to such Fund. Borrower may borrow and reborrow hereunder, provided that the principal amount of all Loans outstanding at any one time to Borrower shall not exceed the Maximum Amount. The Bank shall have sole and absolute discretion at all times as to whether or not to make any Loans.

(b) The Borrower must give, or cause its Investment Adviser or its authorized agent, including without limitation the Custodian pursuant to the terms of the Authorization Letter, to give the Bank irrevocable written or telephonic notice of Borrower’s intention to borrow under this Agreement by 2:00 p.m. local Columbus, Ohio time on the proposed Loan date (“Borrowing Date”). The Bank is authorized to make Loans based on the instructions received from any authorized representative of the Borrower, its Investment Adviser or authorized agent as listed on Exhibit 2.1 attached hereto, which list may be modified by the Borrower from time to time by written notice to the Bank. Provided that all conditions precedent to the making of any Loan as set forth in Section 6 have been satisfied, the Bank will make Loans by crediting the amount thereof to the appropriate demand deposit account at the Bank established by the Borrower for the Funds in accordance with Section 6.1(g) or such other account as the Bank and the Borrower may agree in writing. Each request for a Loan shall include the following:

(i) the proposed Borrowing Date;

(ii) the Fund for whom the Borrower is requesting the Loan and the amount of such requested Loan; and

(iii) a certification to the Bank, or other evidence satisfactory to the Bank, that, after giving effect to the requested Loan, (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding does not exceed the Maximum Amount and (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding for the benefit of the Fund for which the Loan has been requested does not exceed the Borrowing Limit for such Fund.

(c) Each written notice shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower as of the date thereof that the conditions contained in Section 6 have been satisfied with respect to the Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Bank may rely on telephonic instructions which it reasonably believes to be genuine. Telephonic requests shall be confirmed in writing or by other mutually acceptable electronic means no later than the Borrowing Date in a form satisfactory to the Bank. Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless for any reasonable action taken in reliance upon such telephonic notice; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for any such action, loss or expense to the extent such action, loss or expense results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank.

2.2 Promissory Note.

(a) On or before the Closing Date, the Borrower shall duly issue and deliver to the Bank a Promissory Note in the form of Exhibit 2.2 hereto (the “Note”), payable to the Bank in the Maximum Amount.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sole source of payment of the obligations of the Borrower hereunder with respect to any Fund, including, without limitation, the principal of and interest on each Loan made hereunder for the benefit of any Fund and any other amounts attributable to the Loans made hereunder to the Borrower for the benefit of any Fund, shall be the revenues and assets of such Fund, and not the revenues and assets of any other Fund (except as provided in Section 7.2(b)).

2.3 Repayment of Principal.

(a) Repayment of Principal. All outstanding principal and accrued interest with respect to a Loan, and any other fees and charges hereunder, shall be payable on the Maturity Date, or such earlier date on which a Loan becomes due and payable pursuant to Sections 2.3(b) and 7.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower agrees that if the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding exceeds the Maximum Amount at any time, such excess shall be immediately due and payable to the Bank. The Borrower further agrees that if the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding for the benefit of any Fund exceeds the Borrowing Limit with to respect to such Fund at any time, such excess shall be immediately due and payable to the Bank.

(c) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may prepay a Loan and accrued interest in whole or in part at any time prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that each prepayment shall be in an amount equal to, or greater than, $1,000.00 or, if less, the entire outstanding principal balance of such Loan, and shall be made with interest accrued thereon.

(d) Prepayment. The Borrower may repay principal and accrued interest on the Loans by directing the Custodian to apply cash held by the Custodian for a Fund, on the Borrower’s behalf, to the repayment of such amounts. This Section 2.3(d) shall in no way limit the obligation of Borrower to pay the Loans nor shall the sources of funds from which the Borrower may repay the Loans be limited to the Trust Custody Accounts of the Fund for which the Loans were made. In the event that any prepayment of a loan accruing interest on a variable rate based on a LIBO Rate is made on a date other than the last Banking Day of then current LIBO Rate Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any increase costs to the Bank resulting from such prepayment.

2.4 Payment of Interest. Interest will accrue on the balance owing under each outstanding Loan until repaid in full at a variable Interest Rate per annum, which shall change in the manner provided in this Agreement. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of each outstanding Loan is computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Any reference in this Agreement to a “per annum” rate shall be based on a year of 360 days. Interest due on an outstanding Loan shall be payable monthly in arrears on the fifth (5^th) day of each consecutive calendar month for the month just ended, with the first such payment due on the First Payment Date, as specified on Exhibit 1.3. If the due date of any payment under a Note shall be a day that is not a Business Day, the due date will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. Those amounts, if not timely paid, shall thereupon constitute Obligations hereunder and shall thereafter accrue interest as provided in this Agreement. If not sooner paid, the outstanding principal balance of the [Revolving Loan] shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Loans shall bear interest at a rate of three percent (3%) above the Interest Rate then in effect; this provision does not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or an agreement by the Bank to permit any late payments whatsoever.

2.5 Term of Facility. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.5, with respect to a Fund, the term of the Facility shall expire on the Maturity Date, and the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loans and all accrued interest, with respect to such Fund, shall become due and payable not later than that date in the event that any principal or accrued interest has not been previously repaid. The Maturity Date may be extended for successive 364 day terms upon (a) the Bank’s executive committee (or similar committee established from time to time) approving an extension of the Facility, (b) the Bank giving written notice of such extension to Borrower prior to the end of the current or extended term, (c) the payment of the Annual Fee, and (d) the execution of a Note; provided, however, that the Borrower may elect not to renew the Facility by giving written notice to the Bank no less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the current or extended term. This Facility shall automatically terminate upon the termination of the Custody Agreement, except upon the simultaneous execution by the Bank and Borrower of a substantially identical custody agreement in replacement thereof. Until all Obligations have been fully repaid and this Agreement has terminated, the Bank shall retain its security interest in all Collateral, then existing or arising thereafter, pledged to the Bank pursuant to the Pledge Agreement.

2.6 Unused Fee. In addition to interest on each Loan, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank an unused fee for each partial or full calendar quarter during which the Facility is outstanding equal to the amount set forth on Exhibit 1.3. Unused fees for each calendar quarter shall be due and payable within ten (10) days following the submission by the Bank or its administrative agent of a statement to the Borrower of the amount due. Such fees may be debited when due from any account of the Borrower carried with the Bank without further authority. Whenever any payment of the unused fee is due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day. It is expressly understood that the unused fee herein described shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

2.7 Accounting. After the end of each calendar month, the Bank will render to the Borrower a statement of the Borrower’s loan account with the Bank hereunder, which statement shall be considered correct and to have been accepted by the Borrower and shall be conclusively binding upon Borrower unless the Borrower notifies the Bank in writing of any discrepancy within ten (10) Business Days from the mailing of such statement. Such monthly statement shall reflect all Loans incurred by the Borrower for the benefit of any Fund under the Facility during the calendar month to which such statement relates.

2.8 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall cause each Fund to use the proceeds of the Loans made to the Borrower for the benefit of such Fund for any purposes permitted under such Fund’s then current prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.

2.9 Increased Costs.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to a Borrowing Date shall subject the Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the Note or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Bank in respect thereof and the result is to increase the cost to the Bank, by an amount which Bank deems to be material, of making or maintaining the Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then the Borrower shall promptly pay the Bank, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Bank for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If the Bank shall have determined that the adoption of, or any change in, any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by the Bank or any corporation controlling Bank with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to a Borrowing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Bank to be material, then from time to time, after submission by Bank to the Borrower of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such reduction.

(c) If, due to (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other public authority (whether or not having the force of law), or (iii) the failure of the Borrower to pay any amount when required by the terms of this Agreement, there shall be any loss or increase in the cost to the Bank of accruing interest on the Obligation based upon the LIBO Rate, then the Borrower agrees that the Borrower shall, from time to time, upon demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for such loss or increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such loss or increase cost, submitted to the Borrower by the Bank, shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest error, of the correctness of such amount.

(d) A certificate as to any amounts of such loss or increase cost, submitted to the submitted by Bank to the Borrower shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, of the correctness of such amount.

2.10 Taxes. All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Bank hereunder or under the Note, such amounts shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Bank (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and the Note.

2.11 Special Provisions Relating to the LIBO Rate.

(a) In the event that Bank reasonably determines that by reason of (i) any change arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank euro currency market or affecting the position of the Bank with respect to such market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to which the LIBO Rate then being determined is to be fixed, (ii) any change arising after the date of this Agreement in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation or order (or any interpretation thereof, including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation or order), or (iii) any other circumstance affecting the Bank or the interbank euro currency market (such as, but not limited to, official reserve requirements required by Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), the LIBO Rate plus the applicable spread shall not represent the effective pricing to the Bank of accruing interest hereunder based upon the LIBO Rate, then, and in any such event, the accruing of interest hereunder based upon the LIBO Rate shall be suspended until Bank shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. In such case, beginning on the date of such suspension, interest shall accrue hereunder at a variable rate of interest per annum, which shall change in the manner set forth below, equal to zero percentage points (0%) in excess of the Prime Commercial Rate (as defined hereafter).

(b) In the event that on any date Bank shall have reasonably determined that accruing interest hereunder based upon the LIBO Rate has become unlawful by compliance by Bank in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order, then, and in any such event, Bank shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower In such case, when required by law, interest shall accrue hereunder at a variable rate of interest per annum, which shall change in the manner set forth below, equal to zero percentage points (0%) in excess of the Prime Commercial Rate. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the circumstances of the first sentence of this paragraph occur and the Borrower has the ability to request advances hereunder based on interest rates other than the LIBO Rate, then the Borrower shall repay any advances based on the LIBO Rate with advances under one of the other rates available to the Borrower hereunder. As used herein, “Prime Commercial Rate” shall mean the rate established by Bank from time to time based on its consideration of economic, money market, business and competitive factors, and it is not necessarily the Lender’s most favored rate. Subject to any maximum or minimum interest rate limitation specified herein or by applicable law, any variable rate of interest on the Obligation evidenced hereby based upon the Prime Commercial Rate shall change automatically without notice to the Borrower immediately with each change in the Prime Commercial Rate. If during any period of time while interest is accruing based upon the Prime Commercial Rate, the Obligation evidenced by any Note is not paid at maturity, whether maturity occurs by lapse of time, demand, acceleration or otherwise, the unpaid principal balance and any unpaid interest thereon shall, thereafter until paid, bear interest at a rate equal to three percentage points (3%) in excess of the rate indicated in the immediately preceding two paragraphs

PROMISSORY NOTE

Spirit of America Investment Fund, Inc., on behalf and for the benefit
of its Participating Funds

	Indianapolis, IN
$3,000,000	May 28, 2014

Spirit of America Investment Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), on behalf and for the benefit of those investment series set forth on Schedule 1 (the “Funds” and each a “Fund”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK (the “Bank”) at its offices, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum of THREE MILLION AND/100 DOLLARS ($3,000,000) or the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans made by the Bank to the Borrower, whichever is less, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Borrower and the Bank (as the same may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.

The Borrower covenants that the funds borrowed by it from the Bank as evidenced by this Note shall be used solely for the benefit of the Funds.

The principal balance hereof outstanding from time to time shall bear interest at the Interest Rate in effect from time to time. Interest on each Loan will accrue daily, will be calculated based on a 360-day year and charged for the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. All outstanding principal and interest shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, this Note shall bear interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest hereon prior to maturity), at a rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) above the Interest Rate, until paid, and whether before or after the entry of judgment hereon.

The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the loan evidenced by this Note is payable on the Bank's demand at any time at the Bank's sole option and discretion. The inclusion of specific default provisions, financial reporting requirements, financial covenants, other terms, conditions or covenants, or other rights of the Bank in this Note or in any documents or instruments securing or relating to this Note, and/or the inclusion of or references to terms such as a "maturity date," a periodic loan - line of credit "review date", an “annual fee”, or any other similar references or terms in (a) any of the Bank's data or books and records related to the loan evidenced by this Note, or (b) any future correspondence or communication between the Bank and the Borrower pertaining to the loan evidenced by this Note, does not and shall not hereafter preclude, affect or waive the Bank's right to declare the loan evidenced by this Note due and payable, in full, on the Bank's demand at any time at [Lender]'s sole option and discretion.

The principal amount of each loan made by the Bank and the amount of each payment or prepayment made by the Borrower shall be recorded by the Bank on the schedules attached hereto or in the regularly maintained data processing records of the Bank. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans set forth in such schedules or in such records shall be presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing and unpaid on this Note. However, failure by the Bank to make any such entry shall not limit or otherwise affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Note or the Agreement.

This Note is the Note referred to in the Agreement, and is entitled to the benefits, and is subject to the terms of the Agreement. This Note and the obligations evidenced hereby are secured by the Collateral described in the Pledge Agreement and are entitled to the benefits of the Pledge Agreement. The principal of this Note is payable and/or prepayable in the amounts and under the circumstances, and its maturity is subject to acceleration upon the terms, set forth in the Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement, if any payment on this Note becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day, and interest shall be payable at the rate specified herein during such extension period.

In no event shall the interest rate on this Note exceed the highest rate permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that a court determines that the Bank has received interest and other charges under this Note in excess of the highest permissible rate applicable hereto, such excess shall be deemed received on account of the Borrower, and shall automatically be applied to reduce the amounts due to the Bank from the Borrower under this Note, other than interest, and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for the highest permissible rate. If there are no such amounts outstanding, the Bank shall refund to the Borrower such excess.

The Borrower and all endorsers, sureties, guarantors and other persons liable on this Note, if any, hereby waive notice of non-payment, demand, presentment or protest in connection with the delivery, performance and enforcement of this Note; consent to one or more renewals or extensions of this Note; and generally waive any and all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof.

This Note may not be changed orally, but only by an instrument in writing.

This Note is being delivered in, is intended to be performed in, shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and be governed by the laws of, the State of Ohio without regard to principles of conflict of laws. The Borrower agrees that the State and federal courts in Franklin County, Ohio or any other court in which the Bank initiates proceedings have exclusive jurisdiction over all matters arising out of this Note, and that service of process in any such proceeding shall be effective if mailed to the Borrower at its address described in the Notices section of the Agreement.

BANK AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER BANK OR BORROWER AGAINST THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE.

Borrower authorizes any attorney at law to appear in any court of record in the State of Ohio or in any other state or territory of the United States of America after the loan evidenced by this Note becomes due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, to waive the issuing and service of process, and to confess judgment against the Borrower in favor of the Bank for the amount then appearing due on this Note, together with costs of suit, and thereupon to waive all errors and all rights of appeal and stays of execution. The Borrower waives any conflict of interest that an attorney hired by the Bank may have in acting on the Borrower’s behalf in confessing judgment against the Borrower while such attorney is retained by the Bank. The Borrower expressly consents to such attorney acting for Borrower in confessing judgment and to such attorney’s fee being paid by the Bank or deducted from the proceeds of collection of this Note or Collateral security therefor.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then or at any time thereafter, and in addition to the rights and remedies of Bank pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Note, the Bank (itself or through an agent) is hereby authorized and empowered at its election, to sell in one or more public or private sales after seven days’ notice (which notice the Trust agrees is commercially reasonable) but without any previous notice or advertisement, the whole or any part of the Securities. Any sale may be either for cash or upon credit or for future delivery, and the Bank may be the purchaser of the whole or any part of the Securities so sold and hold the same thereafter in its own right free from any claim of the Trust or any right of redemption. The Bank reserves the right to reject any and all bids at such sale which, in its sole discretion, it shall deem inadequate. Demands of performance, except as otherwise herein specifically provided for, notices of sale, advertisements and the presence of property at sale are hereby waived and any sale hereunder may be conducted by any officer or agent of the Bank.

(b) If, at the original time or times appointed for the sale of the whole or any part of the Securities, the then current market price is inadequate to discharge in full all the Obligations, or if the Securities be offered for sale in lots, if at any of such sales, the highest bid for the lot offered for sale would indicate to the Bank, in its discretion, the unlikelihood of the proceeds of the sales of all of the Securities being sufficient to discharge all the Obligations, the Bank may, on one or more occasions, postpone any of said sales by public announcement at the time of sale or the time of previous postponement of sale, and no other notice of such postponement or postponements of sale need be given, any other notice being hereby waived; provided, however, that any sale or sales made after such postponement shall be after seven days’ notice to the Trust.

(c) In the event of any sale(s) hereunder the Bank shall, after deducting all costs or expenses of every kind (including, to the full extent permitted by law, attorney’s fees and disbursements) for care, safekeeping, collection, sale, delivery or otherwise, apply the residue of the proceeds of the sale(s) to the payment or reduction, either in whole or in part, of the Obligations returning the surplus, if any, to the Trust.

(d) If, at any time when the Bank shall determine to exercise its right to sell the whole or any part of the Securities hereunder, such Securities or the part thereof to be sold shall not be effectively registered, for any reason whatsoever, under the Securities Act of 1933, as then in effect (or any similar statute then in effect) (the “Securities Act”), the Bank may, in its discretion (subject only to applicable Requirements of Law), sell such Securities or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Bank may deem necessary or advisable, but subject to the other requirements of this Section 9, and shall not be required to effect such registration or to cause the same to be effected. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Bank in its discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Securities or part thereof could be or shall have been filed under said Securities Act (or similar statute), (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Securities or part thereof. In addition to a private sale as provided above in this Section 9, if any of the Securities shall not be freely distributable to the public without registration under the Securities Act (or similar statute) at the time of any proposed sale pursuant to this Section 9, then the Bank shall not be required to effect such registration or cause the same to be effected but, in its discretion (subject only to applicable Requirements of Law), may require that any sale hereunder (including a sale at auction) be conducted subject to restrictions (i) as to the financial sophistication and ability of any person permitted to bid or purchase at sale, (ii) as to the content of legends to be placed upon any certificates representing the Securities sold in such sale, including restrictions on future transfer thereof, (iii) as to the representations required to be made by each person bidding or purchasing at such sale relating to that person’s access to financial information about the Trust and such person’s intentions as to the holding of the Securities so sold for investment, for its own account, and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and (iv) as to such other matters as the Bank may, in its discretion, deem necessary or appropriate in order that such sale (notwithstanding any failure so to register) may be effected in compliance with laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the Securities Act and all applicable state or other jurisdictions’ securities laws.

(e) The Trust acknowledges that any sale under the circumstances described in this Section 9 shall be deemed to have been held in a manner which is commercially reasonable. In the event of any such sale under the circumstances described in this Section 9, the Bank shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Securities at a price which the Bank may deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sales were deferred until after registration as aforesaid.

(f) The Trust agrees that it will not at any time plead, claim or take the benefit of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption law now or hereafter in force in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of the whole or any part of the Securities or the possession thereof by any purchaser at any sale hereunder, and the Trust waives the benefit of all such laws to the extent it lawfully may do so. The Trust agrees that it will not interfere with any right, power and remedy of the Bank provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Bank of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Bank to exercise any such right, power or remedy and no notice or demand which may be given to or made upon the Trust by the Bank with respect to any such remedies shall operate as a waiver hereof, or limit or impair the Bank’s right to take any action or to exercise any power or remedy hereunder, without notice or demand, or prejudice its rights as against the Trust in any respect.

10.

Waiver.

(a) The Trust waives any right to require Bank to: (i) proceed against or exhaust any security held for the Obligations, or (ii) pursue any other remedy in Bank’s power whatsoever. The Trust hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Agreement, and also presentment, demand, protest and notice of dishonor of any and all of the Obligations, and promptness in commencing suit against any party thereto or liable thereon, and in giving notice to or of making any claim or demand hereunder upon the Trust.

(b) No delay on the Bank’s part in exercising any power of sale, lien, option or other right hereunder, and no notice or demand which may be given to or made upon the Trust by the Bank with respect to any power of sale, lien, option or other right hereunder, shall constitute a waiver thereof, or limit or impair the Bank’s right to take any action or to exercise any power of sale, lien, option, or any other right hereunder, without notice or demand, or prejudice the Bank’s rights as against the Trust in any respect. No act or omission of any kind on Bank’s part shall in any event affect or impair this Agreement.

11. Indemnification. The Trust agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from and against any taxes, liabilities, claims and damages, including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, and other expenses incurred or arising by reason of the taking or the failure to take action by the Bank, in good faith, under this Agreement and in respect of any transactions effected in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes payable in connection with the delivery or registration of any of the Securities as provided herein. The obligations of the Trust under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.

Miscellaneous.

(a) The Trust agrees to promptly reimburse Bank for actual out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, incurred by the Bank in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement and/or the Note and/or the Loan Agreement; provided, however, that this Section 12(a) shall not be construed as granting the Bank a security interest in any Securities for the purpose of paying such counsel fees.

(b) This Agreement shall be binding upon the Trust and the Trust’s assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Bank and its successors, transferees and assigns. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or amended except in writing duly signed for and on behalf of the Bank and the Trust.

ANNEX 1
TO PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
BETWEEN

SPIRIT OF AMERICA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.

AND

THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK

CONTROL AGREEMENT

This Control Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated May 28, 2014 is by and among SPIRIT OF AMERICA INVESTMENT FUND, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Trust”) executing this Agreement on behalf of itself and on behalf and for the benefit of those investment series set forth in Exhibit A (the “Funds” and each, a “Fund”), THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK, a national bank (“Bank”), and THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK, a national bank (the “Custodian”).

WHEREAS, the Trust and the Custodian are parties to a certain Custody Agreement(s) whereunder Custodian holds custody of various assets of Borrower, which include the Collateral Account(s), as defined and listed below; and

WHEREAS, the Trust and Lender have entered into the Pledge Agreement dated as of May 28, 2014; and

WHEREAS, Bank, the Trust and the Custodian are entering into this Agreement to provide for Lender’s control of the Collateral Account(s) and the financial assets and other property held in the Collateral Account(s).

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Establishment of Collateral Account(s). The Custodian hereby confirms and agrees that:

1.1 Custodian has established the following account(s) (the “Collateral Account(s)”), in the name of the Trust.

Fund	Collateral Account Numbers
Spirit of America Real Estate Income and Growth Fund	▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Spirit of America Large Cap Value Fund	1041004553
Spirit of America High Yield Tax Free Bond Fund	1041004526
Spirit of America Income Fund	1041004535
Spirit of America Income and Opportunity Fund	1041006524

1.2 The Custodian is, and at all times hereafter will be, acting in the capacity of “Securities Intermediary” (as such term is defined in Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of Ohio (the “UCC”)) in respect of all Securities or other property credited to the Collateral Account(s).

1.3 All securities or other property underlying any financial assets credited to the Collateral Account(s) shall be registered in the name of the Custodian, indorsed to the Custodian or in blank and in no case, will any financial asset credited to a Collateral Account be registered in the name of the Borrower, payable to the order of the Borrower or specially indorsed to the Trust except to the extent the foregoing have been specially indorsed to the Custodian or in blank.

Collateral Account Control.

2.1 Bank Security Interest. The Trust has granted Bank a security interest in the Collateral and Collateral Account(s).

2.2 Control. Custodian will comply with the entitlement order(s) (as defined in the UCC) or other instruction(s) received from the Trust until Custodian receives a written notice from Bank instructing Custodian that Bank is exercising its right to exclusive control over the Collateral Account(s). Such notice, which shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, is referred to herein as a “Notice of Exclusive Control”. After Custodian receives a Notice of Exclusive Control and Custodian has a reasonable time to act thereon, Custodian shall thereafter comply only with the entitlement order(s) (as defined in the UCC) or other instruction(s) received from Bank with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral Account(s) without further consent of Trust or any other person. If the Custodian receives conflicting entitlement orders or instructions from the Trust and the Bank, the Custodian shall follow the instructions or entitlement orders originated by the Bank.

Limited Responsibility of Custodian.

3.1 The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to Bank for complying with entitlement orders or other instructions originated by the Trust concerning the Collateral Account(s) or any Collateral, prior to Custodian receiving a Notice of Exclusive Control and Custodian having had a reasonable time to act thereon.

3.2 The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Trust, for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or complying with entitlement orders or other instructions originated by Bank concerning the Collateral Accounts or any Collateral. The Custodian shall have no duty to investigate or make any determination as to whether any entitlement order or Notice of Exclusive Control is appropriate whether or not the Trust may allege that such entitlement order or Notice of Control is inappropriate. Upon Bank issuing a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Trust agrees not to issue any request or instructions to Custodian to make trades of securities held in the Collateral Account(s) or to transfer or withdraw any financial assets, cash or other property from the Collateral Account(s) without the prior written consent of Bank.

3.3 Notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in any other document or instrument to the contrary, Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken at the instruction of Bank or the Trust, as applicable, or any action taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement, except for Custodian’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in carrying out such instructions.

4. Distributions; Tax Reporting. Custodian shall credit to the Trust’s custodial account(s) all interest, dividends and other income received by Custodian on the Collateral, unless Custodian has received a Notice of Exclusive Control and has had a reasonable time to act thereon. All items of income, gain, expense and loss recognized in the Collateral Account(s) shall be reported to the Internal Revenue Service and all state and local taxing authorities under the name and taxpayer identification number of Trust.

Duties and Services of Custodian.

5.1 The Custodian shall have no duties, obligations, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to the Collateral or the Collateral Account(s) except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement (and as between the Trust and Custodian the Custody Agreement), and no implied duties of any kind shall be read into this Agreement against Custodian including, without limitation, the duty to preserve, exercise or enforce rights in the Collateral and Collateral Account(s).

5.2 Instructions under this Agreement from the Trust’s authorized representative given in accordance with the terms of the Custody Agreement shall also constitute proper instructions under the Custody Agreement.

5.3 Bank agrees to provide to Custodian, on Exhibit C attached hereto, the names and signatures of authorized parties who may give written notices, instructions or entitlement orders concerning the Collateral Account(s).

5.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Bank and the Trust hereby further acknowledge and agree that any Collateral issued outside the United States (“Foreign Security System Assets”) which may be held by Custodian, a sub-custodian within Custodian’s network of sub-custodians (each a “Sub-Custodian”) or a depository or book-entry system for the central handling of securities and other financial assets in which Custodian or the Sub-Custodian are participants may not permit the Trust to have a security entitlement under the UCC with respect to such Foreign Security System Assets (and such property shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement not to be a financial asset held within the Collateral Account(s)). The parties hereby further acknowledge that Custodian gives no assurance that a security entitlement is created under the UCC with respect to any assets held in Euroclear or Cedelbank or their successors.

Indemnification of the Custodian.

6.1 The Trust and Bank hereby agree that Custodian is released from any and all liabilities to the Trust and Bank arising from the terms of this Agreement and the compliance of Custodian with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from Custodian’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall Custodian be liable under this Agreement to the Trust or Bank or any person claiming by through or under the Trust or Bank for consequential or special damages, even if Custodian has been advised of the possibility or likelihood of such damages. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

6.2 As between the Trust and Custodian, Custodian shall be and remains entitled to all of the rights, indemnities, powers, and protections in its favor under the Custody Agreement, which shall apply fully to Custodian’s actions and omissions hereunder. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. In addition to such the rights, indemnities, powers, and protections set forth in the Custody Agreement, Trust hereby agrees to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Custodian, and its affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees, and agents, against all losses, liabilities, claims, litigation, demands, suits, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), disbursements, or expenses incurred as a result of the assertion of any claim by any person or entity arising out of or otherwise arising from or in connection with or related to this Agreement, including any that may be incurred in performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, except to the extent the losses, liabilities, claims, litigation, demands, suits, costs, disbursements, or expenses are a direct result of Custodian’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

6.3 As between Custodian and Bank, Bank will hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Custodian, and its affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees, and agents, against all losses, liabilities, claims, litigation, demands, suits, costs, disbursements, or expenses arising out of entitlement orders and any other instructions given by Bank to Custodian under this Agreement or actions taken by Custodian in compliance with entitlement orders originated by Bank, or otherwise following instructions of Bank hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, except to the extent the losses, liabilities, claims, litigation, demands, suits, costs, disbursements, or expenses are a direct result of Custodian’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

7. Custodian Representations. The Custodian agrees and confirms, as of the date hereof, and at all times until the termination of this Agreement that it has not entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement (other than the Custody Agreement) with any other person or entity relating to the Collateral or the Collateral Account(s) under which it has agreed to comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) of such other person or entity.

8. Access To Reports. The Custodian will provide to Bank a copy of a statement of the Collateral Account(s) on each business day; provided, however, that Custodian’s failure to forward a copy of such statement to Bank shall not give rise to any liability hereunder.

9. Fees and Expenses of Custodian. In addition to the terms of the Custody Agreement, the Trust hereby agrees to pay and reimburse Custodian for any advances, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) and disbursements that may be paid or incurred by Custodian in connection with this Agreement or the arrangement contemplated hereby, including any that may be incurred in performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

10. Liens; Advances; Right of Offset. Any fees, expenses or other amounts that may be owing to Custodian from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof or of the Custody Agreement shall be secured by any lien, encumbrance and other rights that Custodian may have under the Custody Agreement or applicable law; and Custodian shall be entitled to exercise such rights and interests against the Collateral and Collateral Account(s) in accordance with the terms of the Custody Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Bank furthermore agrees that (a) if Custodian, at its option without any liability or obligation to do so, advances cash or investments to the Collateral Account(s) for any purpose (including but not limited to securities settlements, foreign exchange contracts, assumed settlement or account overdraft) for the benefit of the Trust, any property at any time held pursuant to this Agreement shall be security therefor and, should Trust fail to repay Custodian promptly, Custodian shall be entitled to utilize available cash and/or to liquidate assets in the Collateral Account(s) to the extent necessary to obtain reimbursement; and (b) Custodian shall be entitled to utilize available cash and/or to liquidate assets in the Collateral Account(s) for the payment of fees, cost and expenses owing to Custodian with respect to the Collateral Account(s), and all costs and expenses that may be paid or incurred by Custodian in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any that may be incurred in performing Custodian’s duties under this Agreement pertaining to instructions or entitlement orders or a Notice of Exclusive Control issued by Bank.

11. Notices. Any notice, instruction or other instrument required to be given hereunder requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto shall be in writing and may be sent by hand, or by facsimile transmission, telex, or delivery by any recognized delivery service, prepaid or, by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and addressed as follows, or to such other address as any party may hereafter notify the other respective parties hereto in writing:

(the “Investment Advisor”) have the power and authority to request and enter into borrowings on behalf of those investment services set forth on Exhibit 1.1 (the “Funds” and each a “Fund”) pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between the Trust and The Huntington National Bank dated as of even date herewith (“Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). The Trust is the Borrower referenced in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Adviser is the investment adviser for the Trust registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 with SEC registration number 801-54782.

The Trust and the Investment Adviser hereby expressly authorize The Huntington National Bank (the “Custodian”) as the Borrower’s designated representative on behalf of the Funds, without any further oral or written instruction, (a) to request advances from The Huntington National Bank (the “Bank”) under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for the purposes set forth therein on each occasion where a Fund has daily cash needs in excess of the amount of cash then available in the Fund’s Trust Custody Account, and (b) to immediately apply when available the cash held by the Custodian on behalf of the Fund to the repayment of principal and interest of the amounts due by the Fund under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

The Trust and the Investment Adviser hereby acknowledge and agree that all securities of a Fund are to be pledged as security for any and all advances made to the Fund under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Pledge and Security Agreement to be entered into between the Lender and the Borrower (the Pledge Agreement”) and upon the delivery of a Report of Pledged Securities to the Lender. The Trust and the Investment Adviser hereby authorize and direct the Custodian to execute on behalf of the Fund, a Report of Pledged Securities granting to the Bank a security interest in securities owned by the Fund in an amount equal to the Loan.

Notwithstanding the authority granted to the Custodian in this Authorization Letter, the Trust and the Investment Adviser shall be at all times responsible for ensuring that the borrowings made by a Fund under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement do not violate the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any of the rules and regulations thereunder. A Fund shall from time to time promptly inform the Custodian of any applicable limitations, restrictions and/or prohibitions on borrowings by the Fund under any agreement binding upon or affecting the Fund.

Nothing in this Authorization Letter shall obligate the Custodian to request any advances under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. To the extent that the Custodian takes any actions contemplated by this Authorization Letter, the Custodian shall be held to the exercise of reasonable care and shall be without liability to a Fund for any loss, damage, cost, expense (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), liability or claim unless arising from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Custodian. The Custodian shall not be under any obligation at any time to ascertain whether a Fund is in compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, the rules and regulations thereunder, any other laws, rules or regulations applicable to the Trust or the Fund, the provisions of the Trust’s charter documents or by-laws, or the Fund’s investment objectives and policies as then in effect.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to modify or amend the Custody Agreement in effect between the Custodian and the Borrower. The obligations and liabilities of the Bank and the Borrower shall be as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and related loan documents.

The Trust and the Investment Adviser hereby expressly authorize the Bank to act upon the oral and/or written instructions of the Custodian as the Funds’ authorized designated representative, in making advances to the Fund under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The authorizations and designations set forth in this Authorization Letter shall remain in force as to a Fund until delivery to the Custodian and the Bank of written notice by Trust revoking such authorizations and designations.

AMENDMENT NO. 6

AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

between

SPIRIT OF AMERICA INVESTMENT FUND, INC.,

on behalf and for the benefit of each of its series

and

THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK

DATED AS OF MAY 22, 2018

AMENDMENT NO. 6

AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

This AMENDMENT TO THE AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT (“Amendment”) is entered into as of the 22nd day of May 2018 by and between SPIRIT OF AMERICA INVESTMENT FUND, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), executing this Agreement on behalf of itself, and, if applicable, on behalf and for the benefit of those investment series set forth on Exhibit 1.1 (the “Fund(s)” and each, a “Fund”) and THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK, a national banking association (the “Bank”).

WHEREAS, the Borrower is an open-end registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the Funds are investment series of the Borrower;

WHEREAS, the Borrower and Bank have previously entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2014, (as said Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Agreement”) pursuant to which the Bank makes Loans to the Borrower, for the benefit of certain of its investment series, including the Funds, and makes available a credit facility for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Borrower wishes renew the Agreement for an additional 364 days.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties to this Amendment agree as follows:

Section 1

Amendments

(a) Effective as of the date of this Amendment, the following definitions in Section 1.1 of the Agreement are deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

“LIBO Rate” shall mean the rate obtained by dividing: (a) the actual or estimated per annum rate, or the arithmetic mean of the per annum rates, of interest for deposits in U.S. dollars in the London interbank market for the related LIBO Rate Interest Period, as determined by Bank in its discretion based upon reference to information which appears on page LIBOR01, captioned British Bankers Assoc. Interest Settlement Rates, of the Reuters America Network, a service of Reuters America Inc. (or such other page that may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates; or, if such service ceases to be available or ceases to be used by Bank, such other reasonably comparable money rate service as Bank may select) or upon information obtained from any other reasonable procedure, as of two Banking Days prior to the first day of a LIBO Rate Interest Period; by (b) an amount equal to one minus the stated maximum rate (expressed as a decimal), if any, of all reserve requirements (including, without limitation, any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserves) that is specified on the first day of each LIBO Rate Interest Period by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor agency thereto) for determining the maximum reserve requirement with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as "Eurocurrency liabilities" in Regulation D of such Board) maintained by a member bank of such System, or any other regulations of any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto as conclusively determined by Bank. Subject to any maximum or minimum interest rate limitation specified herein or by applicable law, any variable rate of interest on the obligation evidenced hereby shall change automatically, without notice to the Borrower, on the first day of each LIBO Rate Interest Period. The interest rate change will not occur more often than monthly. If the LIBO Rate becomes unavailable, Bank may designate a substitute index after notifying Borrower.

Exhibit 1.3 of this Agreement expresses an initial interest rate and an initial index value to five places to the right of the decimal point. This expression is done solely for convenience. The reference sources for the index used by Bank, as stated in this Agreement, may actually quote the index on any given day to as many as 5 places to the right of the decimal point. Therefore, the actual index value used to calculate the interest rate on and the amount of interest due under this Agreement will be to 5 places to the right of the decimal point.”

(b) Effective May 22, 2018, the following Exhibits relating to the Funds, each of which is attached hereto, are made part of the Agreement and replace, those currently in effect:

Exhibit 1.1 - Participating Funds

Exhibit 1.3 - Specific Terms

Exhibit 3.1 - Certificate of Borrower

Section 2.

Miscellaneous.

(a) This Amendment supplements and amends the Agreement. The provisions set forth in this Amendment supersede all prior negotiations, understandings and agreements bearing upon the subject matter covered herein, including any conflicting provisions of the Agreement or any provisions of the Agreement that directly cover or indirectly bear upon matters covered under this Amendment.

(b) Each reference to the “Agreement” in the Agreement (as it existed prior to this Amendment) and in every other agreement, contract or instrument to which the parties are bound, shall hereafter be construed as a reference to the Agreement as amended by this Amendment. Except as provided in this Amendment, the provisions of the Agreement remain in full force and effect. No amendment or modification to this Amendment shall be valid unless made in writing and executed by all parties hereto.

(d) Paragraph headings in this Amendment are included for convenience only and are not to be used to construe or interpret this Amendment.

(e) This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower and the Bank have executed this Amendment by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.
