Item 1.01
 
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 10, 2010, Sun Home Services, Inc. (“SHS”), an indirect subsidiary of  Sun Communities, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Company entered into a Twenty Million Dollar ($20,000,000) Convertible Secured Revolving Credit Line Agreement with 21st Mortgage Corporation (the “Agreement”).  The Agreement establishes a convertible secured line of credit (the “Loan”) for SHS which allows SHS to borrow, repay and re-borrow amounts until May 15, 2015 (the “Conversion Date”).  Interest only payments at a rate of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus Two Percent (2%) as in effect on the first business day of the month, with a minimum rate of 5.5% and a maximum rate of 9%, are due monthly prior to the Conversion Date.  On the Conversion Date, the outstanding Loan balance will be converted to a five (5) year term loan bearing interest at a fixed rate of 5.15% over the 5-year U.S. Treasury rate in effect on the Conversion Date with equal payments of principal and interest based upon a ten (10) year amortization period.  The term loan is to be fully repaid on or before May 15, 2020.  Interest is computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.  The Loan is secured by a potion of SHS’ portfolio of rental manufactured home units. The total value of the rental units pledged by SHS under the Agreement as security for repayment of the Loan must be equal to or greater than 200% of the outstanding Loan balance.  The Company has guaranteed repayment of the Loan.  This brief description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement attached as Exhibits 10.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
