The appraised value of the Property shall be determined at DHCD's request by the method specified in the HIF Statute (as may be more fully described in the HIF Regulations) and in accordance with DHCD policies, and the costs of the appraisers shall be shared equally by DHCD and the Grantor (unless the HIF Regulations provide otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Restriction, the Grantor shall not be required to use its own funds to repay any debt secured by the Property in the event the appraised value of the Property is less than the aggregate of all permitted debt secured by the Property. E. The closing for the sale of the Property to DHCD shall take place in accordance with applicable provisions of the HIF Regulations, by or before the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the Option Exercise Deadline (i.e., on or before the date that is two hundred forty (240) days after the fiftieth anniversary of the date hereof), by the close of the business day, at the Registry of Deeds; provided, however, that if DHCD reasonably determines additional time is necessary to effect the closing due to delays of the Grantor in providing DHCD with the due diligence material described above or any other failure by the Grantor fully to cooperate with preparations for the sale, the closing date may be extended to a date reasonably determined by DHCD as necessary to redress the delays caused by the Grantor, which shall be specified in a written notice from DHCD setting forth the reasons for such extension, delivered to the Grantor by or before the date originally scheduled for the closing. The parties may also mutually agree to extend the date of the closing by written instrument. F. The transfer to DHCD pursuant to the Purchase Option shall be subject to such other requirements as may be more fully described in the HIF Regulations consistent with the HIF Statute. Adjustments in the purchase price for recording fees, deed stamps and other charges shall be made, and any other issues associated with the transfer shall be resolved, in accordance with standard conveyancing practice in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If either party so desires, the parties shall enter into a purchase and sale agreement memorializing the terms of the sale, consistent with the terms hereof and of the HIF Statute; provided, however, that the Purchase Option shall be binding regardless of whether the parties execute a purchase and sale agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, if, after delivering notice of its intention to exercise the Purchase Option, DHCD determines, in its sole discretion, that it is not in the best interests of DHCD to effect the purchase, DHCD may terminate the Purchase Option at any time, upon written notice to the Grantor recorded with the Registry of Deeds; provided, however, that such termination right shall apply to DHCD only and not to any assignee. G. Concurrently with its acquisition of the Property, DHCD shall cause to be recorded with the Registry of Deeds an affordable housing restriction, in compliance with the HIF Statute and any other applicable statutory requirements for the same (and, in the case of an assignee, in form acceptable to DHCD, in its discretion), which shall require that the Property shall 000 oho MaSSi)OCS AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION be used only for the purposes of preserving or providing affordable housing thereon, which housing shall remain affordable for a period of not less than fifty (50) years. 9. HIF First Refusal Right. A. If the Grantor intends at any time or from time to time prior to DHCD's exercise (or unconditional waiver) of the Purchase Option, as described in Section 8 above, to transfer all or any part of its interest in the Property, and the Grantor receives a bona fide offer for such transfer that the Grantor desires to accept (each, an "Offer"), the Grantor shall promptly deliver to DHCD written notice of the same (which shall not be deemed to have been duly delivered to DHCD unless it contains a copy of clause C. below), together with a copy of such Offer (the "Offer Notice"). The Grantor shall provide DHCD with such reasonable evidence as DHCD may require to satisfy DHCD as to the bona fide nature of the Offer. For purposes of this Section, a purchase by the Sponsor shall not be considered an Offer that triggers DHCD's First Refusal Right. A transfer of a member interest in the Grantor shall be considered an Offer that triggers the DHCD First Refusal Right if (x) such member interest is all or substantially all of the non-managing member interests in the Grantor(except for transfers to affiliates of the member) and (y) such transfer takes place within one year of a transfer of a managing member interest in the Grantor or of a controlling interest in a managing member of the Grantor to the transferee of the member interest or an affiliate of such transferee, provided that a removal of a managing member by a member pursuant to a removal provision in the operating agreement of the Grantor and the substitution of a new managing member that is an affiliate of such member shall not constitute a transfer of a managing member interest for purposes of this clause. B. DHCD shall have the right to purchase the Grantor's interest in the Property (or the portion(s) thereof to which the Offer relates), at the same price and on the same terms set forth in such Offer (the "First Refusal Right"), by delivering to the Grantor and recording with the Registry of Deeds written notice of its election to exercise such First Refusal Right, in accordance with the terms set forth below (the "Exercise Notice"), by or before the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after DHCD's receipt of such Offer Notice (such 120-day period, the "First Refusal Period"). If DHCD does not intend to exercise the First Refusal Right, DHCD may, but shall have no obligation to, notify the Grantor in writing that the First Refusal Right will not be exercised (a "Waiver Notice"). C. If, by the expiration of the First Refusal Period with respect to an Offer, DHCD shall have failed to deliver to the Grantor an Exercise Notice or a Waiver Notice, DHCD shall be deemed to have waived its First Refusal Right with respect to such Offer, subject to any revived First Refusal Right with respect to a modified Offer, as described below. However, DHCD shall retain a First Refusal Right for subsequent Offers and the Purchase Option as described above, notwithstanding any prior actual or deemed waiver of the First Refusal Right, or any intervening transfer of the Property or any portion(s) thereof. The First Refusal Right shall automatically expire upon the waiver, expiration or exercise of the Purchase Option. 000 oho MassDocs AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION D. If any of the terms of an Offer shall be revised from the terms reflected in the Offer Notice in such a manner as to be materially more favorable to the buyer or if a closing pursuant to the Offer has not occurred on or before the date six months after the date of the Offer Notice but the Grantor desires to continue pursuing a sale pursuant to such Offer, the Grantor shall promptly deliver to DHCD an Offer Notice with respect to such revised or continued Offer (which shall not be deemed to have been duly delivered to DHCD unless it contains a copy of clause C. above), and DHCD shall have a new First Refusal Right with respect to such modified or continued Offer. The First Refusal Period for such new First Refusal Right shall run for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of DHCD's receipt of the Offer Notice with respect to such revised or continued Offer. E. DHCD shall have the right at any time to assign its rights under the First Refusal Right to a qualified developer selected by DHCD in accordance with the HIF Statute and HIF Regulations and, effective as of any such assignment, the rights and obligations of DHCD with respect to such First Refusal Right shall automatically be deemed to apply to such assignee, and all references to "DHCD" in this Section shall automatically be deemed to refer to such assignee (except to the extent a provision explicitly provides otherwise). DHCD shall provide written notice of any such assignment to the Grantor. F. In accordance with the provisions of the HIF Statute: (i) An Offer Notice containing the required language as described above shall be deemed to have been duly delivered if sent by regular and certified mail, return receipt requested (or by such other method as may be authorized under the HIF Statute and HIF Regulations), addressed to DHCD (or to any assignee of DHCD, if DHCD has previously given the Grantor notice of such assignment, including the name and notice address of such assignee, in accordance with the notice provisions set forth herein) in the care of the keeper of records for DHCD, which for purposes hereof shall be deemed to be the General or Chief Counsel of DHCD (or in care of the keeper of records for such assignee of DHCD, as applicable). (ii) The Exercise Notice or Waiver Notice shall be duly signed by a designated representative of DHCD or of the assignee of DHCD, as the case may be, and (x) mailed to the Grantor by certified mail (or such other method as may be authorized under the HIF Statute) at the notice address set forth in the Offer Notice and (y) recorded with the Registry of Deeds by the expiration of the First Refusal Period. If DHCD shall have assigned the First Refusal Right to a qualified developer prior to delivery of the Exercise Notice, the Exercise Notice shall include the name and address of such assignee and the terms and conditions of such assignment. (iii)An affidavit acknowledged by a notary public that DHCD or its designated representative has mailed an Exercise Notice or a Waiver Notice (the "Affidavit") shall conclusively establish the manner and time of the giving of such notice. Any Affidavit may be recorded with the Registry of Deeds by either party. Each Affidavit shall have attached to it a copy of the Offer Notice to which it relates. 000 O�0 Mass0oc$ AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION (iv)Each Offer Notice, Exercise Notice and Waiver Notice shall contain the name of the record owner of the Property and a description of the premises to be transferred, in form adequate to identify the same. Each Affidavit shall have attached to it a copy of the Offer Notice to which relates. G. The closing for the sale of the Property (or, if applicable, the part thereof that is the subject of the Offer) to DHCD shall take place in accordance with applicable provisions of the HIF Regulations, by or before the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of the First Refusal Period (i.e., on or before the date that is two hundred forty (240) days after DHCD's receipt of the relevant Offer Notice), by the close of the business day, at the Registry of Deeds (such date, the "Closing Deadline"); provided, however, that if DHCD reasonably determines additional time is necessary to effect the closing, due to delays of the Grantor in providing DHCD with the due diligence material described below or any other failure by the Grantor fully to cooperate with preparations for the sale, the Closing Deadline may be extended to a date reasonably determined by DHCD as necessary to redress the delays caused by the Grantor, which shall be specified in a written notice from DHCD setting forth the reasons for such extension, delivered to the Grantor and recorded with the Registry of Deeds, by or before the date originally scheduled for the closing. The parties may also mutually agree to extend the Closing Deadline, by written instrument; provided, however, that in such event, the parties shall execute an instrument reflecting such extension, which shall be recorded with the Registry of Deeds by or before the date originally scheduled for the closing. H. Concurrently with the delivery of the Offer Notice, the Grantor shall provide DHCD with a copy of, or otherwise make available for DHCD's review at a mutually convenient time and location, all material relating to the Property (or the part thereof that is the subject of the Offer) and/or the proposed sale, transfer, or other disposition thereof that has been made available to the party making the Offer, and shall thereafter promptly make available to DHCD any additional material made available to such party. Promptly upon any request therefor by DHCD, the Grantor shall provide DHCD with a copy of, or otherwise make available for DHCD's review at a mutually convenient time and location, any and all other material owned by or readily available to the Grantor that an unrelated third-party buyer would reasonably request in connection with its due diligence for an acquisition of such Property, including, by way of example but not of limitation, deeds, title insurance policies, appraisals, studies, reports, or other materials relating to such Property and/or any encumbrance(s) subject to which the Property is to be conveyed, or otherwise reasonably necessary or appropriate for DHCD to review in connection with its exercise of the First Refusal Right. I. The transfer to DHCD pursuant to the First Refusal Right shall be subject to such other requirements as may be more fully described in the HIF Regulations consistent with the HIF Statute. Adjustments In the purchase price for recording fees, deed excise stamp taxes and other charges shall be made, and any other issues associated with the transfer shall be resolved, in accordance with standard conveyancing practice in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If either party so desires, the parties shall enter into a purchase and sale 000 oho MassDoCS AfifOROABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION agreement memorializing the terms of the sale, consistent with the terms hereof and of the HIF Statute; provided, however, that the First Refusal Right shall be binding regardless of whether the parties execute a purchase and sale agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, if, after delivering notice of its intention to exercise the First Refusal Right, DHCD determines, in its sole discretion, that it is not in the best interests of DHCD to effect the purchase, DHCD may terminate the First Refusal Right at any time, upon written notice delivered to the Grantor and recorded with the Registry of Deeds; provided, however, that such termination right shall apply to DHCD only, and not to any assignee. If DHCD exercises such termination right or if either DHCD or its assignee (other than the Sponsor) fails to perform hereunder on or before the Closing Deadline through no fault of the Grantor, then the First Refusal Right shall lapse and be of no further force or effect. J. Concurrently with its acquisition of the Property, DHCD shall cause to be recorded with the Registry of Deeds an affordable housing restriction, in compliance with the HIF Statute and any other applicable statutory requirements for the same (and, in the case of an assignee, in form acceptable to DHCD, in its discretion), which shall require that such Property shall be used only for the purposes of preserving or providing affordable housing thereon, which housing shall remain affordable for a period of not less than fifty (50) years. 10. Term of Restrictions; Covenants to Run with Land. The term of this Restriction shall be perpetual. The "Option Term" shall be the period from the fiftieth anniversary of the date hereof through the Option Exercise Deadline (as defined in Section 8 above) plus any additional period necessary for the consummation of a purchase of the Property under either the Purchase Option or the First Refusal Right described above, if applicable. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, this Restriction shall remain in full force for the full term set forth herein including any extension, notwithstanding any prepayment of the Loan. The restrictions contained herein shall run with the land, shall bind the successors and assigns of the Grantor, and shall inure to the benefit of the Holders and their successors and assigns as permitted herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the end of the term of affordability for a particular program, as set forth on Exhibit C, as it may have been extended, provided that all obligations under the loan provided by such Program have been satisfied in full at that time, as determined by the appropriate Holder, the Grantor may request that the Holders modify this Restriction to eliminate the requirements imposed by or otherwise relating to such Program set forth in this Restriction. The parties shall cooperate to prepare an appropriate amendment to this Restriction, which amendment shall be duly recorded with the Registry of Deeds by the Grantor at its cost and expense. 11. Subsequent Conveyances. Each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed conveying the Property or portion thereof shall expressly provide that such conveyance is subject to this Restriction, provided, however, that the covenants contained herein shall survive and be effective regardless of whether such contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed conveying the Property or portion thereof provides that such conveyance is subject to this Restriction. 000 o;o MassDocs AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION 12. Income Verification. The Grantor represents, warrants and covenants that the determination of whether a Family occupying a Restricted Unit meets the income requirements set forth herein shall be made by the Grantor at the time of leasing of a Restricted Unit and thereafter at least annually on the basis of the current income of such Family.

Reporting Requirements. A. DHCD Web-Based Report. Annually, no later than September 30, Grantor shall submit to DHCD, via the web-based annual reporting system located at https://hedhsgdevannualreport.azurewebsites.net, or as otherwise instructed, an annual report consisting of all data required by DHCD regulations at 760 CMR 61.00 promulgated pursuant to Chapter 334 of the Acts of 2006 and all applicable DHCD directives, guidelines and forms as may be amended from time to time.

The Holders and the Grantor shall treat as confidential any of the foregoing information relating to a specific Resident or Unit in compliance with all applicable state and federal statutes and regulations, including M.G.L. c. 66A, and shall implement adequate systems and procedures for maintaining the confidentiality of such information (but the Holders and the Grantor may release general statistical and other information about the Property, so long as the privacy rights and interests of the individual Residents are protected). The Holders and the Grantor shall not use any of the foregoing information in Paragraph A.(iii) for any purpose described in Section 603(d)(1) of the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681a(d)(1)) or in any manner that would cause a Holder or Grantor to be considered a "consumer reporting agency" under Section 603(f) of the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act(15 U.S.C. § 1681a(f)). D. Additional Reports. Grantor shall prepare and submit to the Holders such additional reports as any Holder may deem necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements of this Restriction and of the Programs. E.

The Grantor shall not demolish any part of the Improvements or substantially subtract from any real or personal property included within the Property except in conjunction with renovation or rehabilitation of the Units or construction of a new project on the Property, in either case subject to the prior written consent of all Holders, which consent may be granted or withheld in a Holder's sole judgment. 15. Casualty. The Grantor represents, warrants and agrees that if the Property, or any part thereof, shall be damaged or destroyed, the Grantor (subject to the approval of the lender(s) providing financing) will use its best efforts to repair and restore the Units to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the event causing such damage or destruction, and the Grantor represents, warrants and agrees that the Units shall thereafter continue to operate in accordance with the terms of this Restriction. 16. Inspection. The Grantor hereby grants to each Holder and its duly authorized representatives the right to enter the Property (a) at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspecting the Property to determine compliance with this Restriction or any other agreement between the Grantor and such Holder and (b) after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, to take any reasonable and appropriate action under the circumstances to cure any violation of the provisions of this Restriction. The notice referred to in clause (b) shall include a clear description of the course and approximate cost of the proposed cure. 17. Enforcement. Upon violation by the Grantor of any of the provisions of this Restriction that remains uncured for more than thirty (30) days after notice thereof from any Holder (or for oao_/�� MassOocs�.�' AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION such longer period not to exceed thirty (30) days as shall be reasonably required under the circumstances to cure such violation, provided that the Grantor has commenced the cure of such violation within the initial thirty (30) day period and is thereafter diligently pursuing the cure to completion), any Holder, at its option (without liability to any party for failure to do so), may apply to any court, state or federal, for specific performance of this Restriction or an injunction against any violation of this Restriction, or for such other relief as may be appropriate, since the injury arising from the default under any of the terms of this Restriction would be irreparable and the amount of damage would be difficult to ascertain and may not be compensable by money alone. In each such default notice, the Holder giving such notice shall specify the violation in question and the actions such Holder believes are necessary and feasible to remedy such violation. No waiver by a Holder of any breach of this Restriction shall be deemed a waiver of such breach by any other Holder or a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No act or omission by any Holder, other than a writing signed by it waiving a breach by the Grantor in accordance with the next Section hereof, shall constitute a waiver thereof. Any Holder shall be entitled to recover from the Grantor all of such Holder's reasonable costs of an action for enforcement of this Restriction, including reasonable attorneys' fees (including the time of any in- house counsel of a Holder charged at the same rate as comparable outside attorneys). By its acceptance of this Restriction, no Holder undertakes any liability or obligation relating to the condition of the Property. Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to a Holder, any transfer of all or any other portion of the Property in violation of the provisions hereof, in the absence of a certification from all Holders approving, or waiving any restrictions with respect to, the same, all as set forth above, shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be voidable by any Holder, by suit in equity to enforce the restrictions hereof. 18. Compliance Certification. Upon written request therefor, a Holder shall provide a statement in form acceptable for recording certifying that the Grantor is in full compliance with the provisions hereof as relate to that Holder, provided such Holder believes that the Grantor is so in compliance. Upon receipt of a written request therefor, if a Holder shall believe that the Grantor is not so in compliance, such Holder shall provide such a recordable certification specifying in detail the section or sections hereof with which such Holder believes the Grantor not to be in compliance. Any third party dealing with the Grantor may rely for all purposes on the truth and completeness of such a certification of a Holder. 19. Senior Lender Foreclosure. A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of this Section, if the holder of record of a first mortgage granted to a state or national bank, state or federal savings and loan association, cooperative bank, mortgage company, trust company, insurance company or other institutional or governmental lender shall acquire the Property by reason of foreclosure or similar remedial action under the provisions of such mortgage or upon conveyance of the Property in lieu of foreclosure, and provided that the holder of such mortgage has given the Holders not less than sixty (60) days' prior written notice of its intention to foreclose upon its mortgage or to accept a conveyance of the Property in lieu of foreclosure to attempt to structure a workout or other arrangement to avoid such foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, or similar remedial action, oao oho Massft s AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION then except as provided below, the rights and restrictions herein contained shall not apply to such mortgage holder upon such acquisition of the Property or to any purchaser of the Property from such mortgage holder, and such Property shall, subject to Paragraph B. below, thereafter be free from all such rights and restrictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights and restrictions contained herein shall terminate only to the extent it is financially infeasible to maintain the level of affordability required by this Restriction or some lesser level of affordability (i.e., fewer Restricted Units or Restricted Units affordable to Families with higher Household Incomes than those required by this Restriction). "Financially infeasible" shall mean (1) with respect to the operation of the Property, that the rent and other income from the Property is, or is reasonably projected to be, less than the reasonable expenses required (or reasonably projected to be required) to maintain and operate the Property and (11) with respect to a sale of the Property, that the restrictions would prevent (or be reasonably projected to prevent) the senior mortgage holder from recovering all amounts due and owing with respect to its financing of the Property, including without limitation, principal, interest, charges, costs, expenses, late fees and prepayment premiums. Financial infeasibility shall be determined by the senior mortgage holder in its sole discretion after consultation with the Holders. The senior mortgage holder shall notify the Holders of the extent to which the rights and restrictions contained herein shall be terminated and the Grantor agrees to execute any documents required to modify this Restriction to conform to the senior mortgage holder's determination. The Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints any senior mortgage holder and each of the Holders, its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any such documents on behalf of the Grantor should the Grantor fail or refuse to do so. B. The rights and restrictions contained herein shall not lapse if the Property is acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure by (i) the Grantor, (ii) any person with a direct or indirect financial interest in the Grantor, (iii) any person related to a person described in clause (ii) by blood, adoption or marriage, (iv) any person who is or at any time was a business associate of a person described in clause (ii), and (v) any entity in which any of the foregoing have a direct or indirect financial interest (each a "Related Party"). Furthermore, if the Property is subsequently acquired by a Related Party during the period in which this Restriction would have remained in effect but for the provisions of this Section, this Restriction shall be revived and shall apply to the Property as though it had never lapsed. C. In the event such mortgage holder conducts a foreclosure or other proceeding enforcing its rights under such mortgage and the Property is sold for a price in excess of the sum of the outstanding principal balances of all notes secured by mortgages of the Property plus all future advances, accrued interest and all reasonable costs and expenses which the holders thereof are entitled to recover pursuant to the terms of such mortgages, such excess shall be paid to the Holders in consideration of the loss of the value and benefit of the rights and restrictions herein contained and released by the Holders pursuant to this Section in connection with such proceeding, provided that in the event that such excess shall be so paid to the Holders by such mortgage holder, the Holders shall thereafter ono i Ma$$Doc$ AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION indemnify such mortgage holder against loss or damage to such mortgage holder resulting from any claim made by the mortgagor of such mortgage to the extent that such claim is based upon payment of such excess by such mortgage holder to the Holders in accordance herewith, provided that such mortgage holder shall give the prompt notice of any such claim and shall not object to intervention by the Holders in any proceeding relating thereto. The Holders shall share any such excess pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of principal and interest (if any) then outstanding on their portions of the Loan and the liability of a Holder under the foregoing indemnity shall be limited to the amount of such excess received by it. To the extent the Grantor possesses any interest in any amount which would otherwise be payable to the Holders under this Paragraph, to the full extent permissible by law, the Grantor hereby assigns its interest in such amount to said mortgage holder for payment to the Holders. 20. Notices. Except for any notice required under applicable law to be given in a different manner, any notice, request or other communication which any party hereto may be required or may desire to give hereunder shall be made in writing, and shall be deemed to have been properly given if hand delivered, if sent by recognized overnight courier, receipt confirmed, or if mailed by United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to the parties at their respective addresses first set forth above, or to such other address as the party to be served with notice may have furnished in writing to the party seeking or desiring to serve notice as a place for the service of notice. A notice sent by any of the foregoing methods shall be deemed given upon documented receipt or refusal. The Holders shall use reasonable efforts to send courtesy copies of all notices sent to the Grantor to the Grantor's investor at the address set forth below, provided that any failure to send such a courtesy copy shall not affect the validity of any notice: WNC Holding, LLC, c/o WNC & Associaates, Inc., 17782 Sky Park Circle, Irvine, California 92614-6404, Attention: Melanie Wenk. 21. Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Restriction shall be binding upon the Grantor and its successors and assigns and shall burden the Property as specified herein. This Restriction shall also be binding upon the Holders, and shall inure to the benefit of their successors and assigns, provided that a Holder shall not voluntarily assign its rights hereunder unless (a) such Holder believes in good faith that it is no longer reasonably capable of performing its duties hereunder, and (b) such assignment shall be to a governmental body or an entity of a similar character and purposes to such Holder which is reasonably capable of performing such duties hereunder (except that DHCD's rights with respect to the Purchase Option and First Refusal Right are assignable, as set forth herein). Notwithstanding the delegation of authority by DHCD to CEDAC for CEDAC to act as a Holder hereunder under the HIF Program and to CEDAC for CEDAC to act as Holder hereunder under the ARPA Program, DHCD shall also be a Holder hereunder and may act at any time in its own name to pursue any rights and remedies of a Holder hereunder; provided that as to the Grantor or any third party, any recorded instrument granting any approval or consent or otherwise affecting the Property under the HIF Program is duly executed by either CEDAC or DHCD and any recorded instrument granting any approval or consent or otherwise affecting the Property under the ARPA Program is duly executed by either CEDAC or DHCD, shall be binding on the other for all purposes. coo oho MBssDOcs AFFORDABLE HOUSING RESTRICTION 22. Severability; Construction. All rights, powers and remedies provided herein may be exercised only to the extent that exercise thereof does not violate any applicable law, and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Restriction invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under applicable law. If any provision or part hereof shall be affected by such holding, the validity of other provisions of this Restriction and of the balance of any provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in part only, shall in no way be affected thereby, and this Restriction shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or part hereof had not been contained herein. In the event of any actual or potential inconsistency between the terms of this Restriction and any of the Statutes and/or the Regulations, such terms shall be interpreted, to the extent reasonably possible, so as to reconcile any such inconsistencies. If such provisions cannot reasonably be reconciled, the provisions of the Statutes, the Regulations and this Restriction, in the foregoing order of priority, shall control. 23. Governing Law. This Restriction shall be governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Inasmuch as the restrictions contained herein have been imposed upon the Property in part to satisfy requirements of various governmental bodies referred to herein, Including, without limitation, DHCD, the restrictions contained herein are intended to be construed as a restriction held by a governmental body with the benefit of Section 26 of Chapter 184 of the Massachusetts General Laws as existing as of the date hereof, such that the restrictions contained herein shall not be limited in duration by any rule or operation of law, but rather shall run for the full term thereof. 24. Recording. The Grantor, at its cost and expense, shall cause this Restriction and any amendment hereto to be duly recorded with the Registry of Deeds (and if necessary or appropriate, re-recorded), shall pay or cause to be paid all recording, filing, or other taxes, fees and charges and shall comply with all such statutes and regulations as may be required by law in order to establish, preserve and protect the ability of the Holders and their successors and assigns to enforce this Restriction. 2S. Further Assurances. Each Holder is authorized to record or file any notices or instruments appropriate to assuring the enforceability of this Restriction; and the Grantor on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns appoints each Holder its attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any such instruments on its behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, the Grantor and its successors and assigns agrees to execute any such instruments upon request. The benefits of this Restriction shall be in gross and shall be assignable by any Holder.
