In addition, under the Side Letter and that certain participation agreement, dated March 25, 2026, as amended, between NREF and The Ohio State Life Insurance Company (“OSL), the OP, OSL and each Other NSP Note Purchaser has the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any future advance under the NSP Note up to its then-current pro rata share, with NREF remaining obligated to fund any amount of future advances under the NSP Note not funded by the OP, OSL or the Other NSP Note Purchasers. Under the NSP Note, the NSP OC may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $40 million, with $22.7 million outstanding as of April 3, 2026. The NSP Note bears interest at a rate of 14% per annum, which is payable in kind, is interest only during the term of the NSP Note and matures on January 16, 2031.
