Credit Agreement
This Credit Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of September 30, 2024, by and among CTO Realty Growth, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), and each Material Subsidiary from time to time party to this Agreement, as Guarantors, the several financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement, as Lenders, and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent and KeyBank, as Sustainability Structuring Agent, as provided herein. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof.
Preliminary Statement
The Borrower has requested, and the Lenders have agreed to extend, certain credit facilities on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 1.11 hereof so that the Borrower will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.
Unless the Borrower otherwise directs, prepayments of Loans under this Section 1.8(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base Rate Loans until payment in full thereof, then to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans until payment in full thereof, with any balance applied to Borrowings of Term SOFR Rate Loans in the order in which their Interest Periods expire. Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 1.8(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Term SOFR Rate Loans, accrued interest thereon to
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders under Section 1.11 hereof (if any).
provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration, any adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.9 shall be made by the Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrower. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid on the demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.
The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s share thereof.
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
then, upon the demand of such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost or reasonable expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or reasonable expense in reasonable detail and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive if reasonably determined absent manifest error.
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
requested under Section 12.13 hereof at a time when the Required Lenders have approved such amendment or waiver (any such Lender referred to in clause (a), (b), (c), or (d) above being hereinafter referred to as an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may, in addition to any other rights the Borrower may have hereunder or under applicable law, require, at its expense, any such Affected Lender to assign, at par, without recourse (other than with respect to claims or Liens arising by, through or under such Affected Lender), all of its interest, rights, and obligations hereunder (including all of its Commitments, Loans and other amounts at any time owing to it hereunder and the other Loan Documents) to an Eligible Assignee specified by the Borrower, provided that (i) such assignment shall not conflict with or violate any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other governmental authority, (ii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Affected Lender all monies (together with amounts due such Affected Lender under Section 1.11 hereof as if the Loans owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned) other than such principal owing to it hereunder, and (iii) the assignment is entered into in accordance with, and subject to the consents required by, Section 12.12 hereof (provided any reimbursable expenses due thereunder shall be paid by the Borrower and any assignment fees shall be waived).
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
establishment of such Incremental Revolving Commitment providing for the advance of new revolving loans (individually an “Incremental Revolving Loan” and collectively for all the Incremental Revolving Lenders the “Incremental Revolving Loans”) or such Incremental Term Loan Commitment providing for the advance of new term loans (individually an “Incremental Term Loan” and collectively for all the Incremental Term Loan Lenders the “Incremental Term Loans”; each Commitment Amount Increase, Incremental Revolving Commitment, and Incremental Term Loan Commitment, a “Commitment Increase”), identifying one or more additional Lenders (or additional Commitments for existing Lenders, or by a combination of existing Lenders and additional Lenders, and the amount of each such Lender’s additional Commitment or Incremental Term Loan Commitment, as applicable); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not be increased to an amount in excess of $400,000,000, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the request or the effective date of the Commitment Increase, (iii) all representations and warranties contained in Section 6 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) at the time of such request and on the effective date of such Commitment Increase except for representations and warranties that relate to a prior date, which shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the applicable date on which they were made, and (iv) upon the reasonable request of any additional Lender made at least seven (7) days prior to the effective date of such Commitment Increase, the Borrower shall have provided to such additional Lender, and such additional Lender shall be reasonably satisfied with, the documentation and other information so requested in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money-laundering rules and regulations, including the Act, in each case at least three (3) days prior to the effective date of such Commitment Increase and, at least three (3) days prior to the effective date of such Commitment Increase, if the Borrower qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation shall have delivered, to each Lender that so requests, a Beneficial Ownership Certification. The effective date of the Commitment Increase shall be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness thereof, the new Lender(s) (or, if applicable, existing Lender(s)) shall advance Loans in an amount sufficient such that after giving effect to its advance each Lender shall have outstanding its Applicable Percentage of Loans. The Borrower agrees to pay any reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent relating to any Commitment Increase and arrangement fees related thereto as agreed upon in writing between Administrative Agent and the Borrower, if any. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment and no Lender’s Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and each Lender may at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to increase its Commitment or to provide any Incremental Commitment, (y) no declining Lender shall have any consent rights with respect to such Commitment Increase, and (z) any new Lender shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent (to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent would be required in connection with an assignment to such new Lender under Section 12.12(a)(iii) hereof) with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon the effectiveness thereof, Schedule I shall be deemed amended to reflect any Commitment Increase. Subject to Section 7.1 hereof, on the effective date of any new Incremental Term Loan Commitments, any new or existing Lender with an Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
advance in a single Borrowing an Incremental Term Loan in the amount of its new Incremental Term Loan Commitment. The Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction and consistent with Section 7.2 hereof.
Each request for a new Incremental Commitment may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or restatement (each, an “Incremental Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Incremental Lender participating in such tranche and the Administrative Agent. Each Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 1.15. All Incremental Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security, if any, with all other existing Loans and shall not be guaranteed by any additional Guarantors than the existing Loans, (b) shall be subject to covenants and events of default that are identical to or not materially more restrictive to the Borrower than those in the existing Loans (except to the extent such terms apply only after the latest maturity date of the existing Term Loans), and (c) shall have any mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 1.8(b) hereof allocated ratably between the existing Loans and the Incremental Loans (if any). All Incremental Term Loans shall have (i) a final maturity date no earlier than the latest Maturity Date for then-existing Term Loans and (ii) a weighted average life not less than the then remaining weighted average life to maturity of the existing Term Loans. Except as set forth above, the terms and conditions applicable to Incremental Commitments and Incremental Loans (including interest rates and amortization applicable thereto) shall be determined by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Incremental Commitments or Incremental Loans.
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]
Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding (including, without limitation, Section 1.8(b) hereof), all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders after acceleration or the final maturity of the
[Signature Page to First Amendment to Credit Agreement]

For purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any fiscal quarter of the Borrower, the last date on which the Borrower’s most recent Compliance Certificate and financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) for the fiscal quarter then ended are due, pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof. The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the Total Indebtedness to Total Asset Value ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Borrower has not delivered its Compliance Certificate and financial statements by the date the Compliance Certificate and financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 8.5 hereof, then until such Compliance Certificate and financial statements and/or audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level VI shall apply). If the Borrower subsequently delivers such Compliance Certificate and financial statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered Compliance Certificate and financial statements shall take effect from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date. In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin established by such Compliance Certificate and financial statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the fiscal quarter covered by such financial statements until the next Pricing Date. The Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders understand that the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders by the Borrower (the "Borrower Information"). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including, without limitation, because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information; provided that no recalculation shall be done for any period that is more than 2 years earlier than the date of recalculation. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's other rights under this Agreement.

Guarantors under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future Indemnified Taxes. If any such withholding is so required, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon, and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each Lender and the Administrative Agent free and clear of such taxes (including such taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the amount which that Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) would have received had such withholding not been made. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender pays any amount in respect of any such taxes, penalties or interest, the Borrower or such Guarantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Lender for that payment on demand in the currency in which such payment was made.

Thereafter and from time to time, each Lender shall submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or the other of such Forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) and such other certificates as may be (i) requested by the Borrower in a written notice, directly or through the Administrative Agent, to such Lender and (ii) required under then-current United States law or regulations to avoid or reduce United States withholding taxes on payments in respect of all amounts to be received by such Lender, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents or the Obligations.

The Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, or a Lender at any time, shall reimburse the Administrative Agent such Lender for any reasonable legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for any such Indemnitee) incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing) except to the extent the same is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.
