(ii) at the date hereof, Shares having an aggregate gross sales price of $78,700,000 remain unsold under the Equity Distribution Agreement; and

(b) The Company desires to increase the Maximum Amount for purposes of the Equity Distribution Agreement to $271,300,000 (which consists of (i) Shares having an aggregate gross sales price of $71,300,000 that were issued and sold prior to the date hereof and (ii) Shares having an aggregate gross sales price of $200,000,000 that may be issued and sold on or after the date hereof), and each of the Manager Parties (as defined in paragraph 2(a) below) agree with the Company to so increase the Maximum Amount accordingly.
