The Distribution Fee will accrue daily based on the Company’s most recently published per Share NAV applicable to the Class and be paid monthly or quarterly in arrears, as provided in the Prospectus. All determinations regarding the reallowance of the Distribution Fee will be made in good faith by the Managing Dealer in its sole discretion.

The Company shall cease paying the Distribution Fee with respect to Shares upon the earlier to occur of the following: (i) after termination of the Offering, the date when the aggregate underwriting compensation as defined in accordance with applicable FINRA rules, equals ten percent (10.0%) of the gross proceeds from Shares sold in the Offering, as determined in good faith by the Managing Dealer in its sole discretion, excluding Shares issued through the Reinvestment Plan, (ii) if the Company has adopted a shareholder distribution and servicing plan in a manner consistent with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the date such plan terminates or is not continued, (iii) the date of a Liquidity Event, as described in the Prospectus, or (iv) the date that the Share is redeemed or is no longer outstanding.

Except as may be provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, which may be amended and supplemented from time to time, if a shareholder tenders Shares for repurchase by the Company prior to the fourth anniversary of the date such Shares were purchased by the shareholder, such Shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge in the amounts for such Share Class, if any, set forth in the table on Schedule I. If such contingent deferred sales charge is payable, the Company shall promptly remit any such charges to the Managing Dealer. All determinations regarding the reallowance of the contingent deferred sales charge will be made in good faith by the Managing Dealer in its sole discretion. The Managing Dealer may reallow some or all of the contingent deferred sales charge to one or more Participating Broker(s) acting as broker-dealer of record or otherwise providing shareholder or account maintenance services with respect to the Shares as permitted in the Participating Broker Agreement or other servicing agreement with the Managing Dealer. The Company represents that it, or its designated agent, has the capability to track and account for any such fees or charges.

4.2 Reduced Fees and Other Fee Matters.

(a) Subject to availability of such discounts in the Prospectus for a particular Class and notwithstanding Section 4.1 herein, the following persons and entities may purchase Shares net of the upfront selling commission and the upfront dealer manager fee (assuming no other discounts apply): (i) the Advisor or an affiliate of the Advisor, the Company’s officers and trustees and their immediate family members; (ii) officers and associated persons of the Advisor and its affiliates and their immediate family; (iii) a registered principal or representative of the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker and their immediate family members; (iv) other individuals designated by the Company’s executive management; (v) if approved by the Company’s board of trustees, joint venture partners, consultants and other service providers to the Company; (vi) a client of an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws (other than any registered investment advisor that is also registered as a broker-dealer, with the exception of clients who have “wrap” accounts which have asset based fees with such dually registered investment advisor/broker-dealer); and (vii) a person investing in a bank trust account with respect to which the decision-making authority for investments has been delegated to the bank trust department. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family members” shall have the same meaning as in the Prospectus. In addition, Participating Brokers that have a contractual arrangement with their clients for the payment of fees on terms that are inconsistent with the acceptance of all or a portion of the commissions and the marketing support fee may elect not to accept all or a portion of their compensation in the form of commissions and the marketing support fees offered by the Company for Shares that they sell. In that event, such Shares shall be sold to the investor net of all or a portion of the commission and all or a portion of the marketing support fee. The amount of proceeds at the time of purchase paid to the Company shall not be affected by reducing or eliminating commissions and marketing support fees payable in connection with sales to investors described in this paragraph.

(b) Subject to the availability of a volume discounts schedule set forth in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus for a particular Class, the amount of selling commissions otherwise payable shall be reduced or eliminated with respect to sales to a subscriber or group of subscribers based upon the aggregate number of Shares purchased by such subscriber or group through the same Participating Broker. Participating Brokers and/or subscribers are responsible for requesting that subscriptions be combined, if applicable, for the purpose of determining whether such subscriptions qualify for volume discounts.

(c) No selling upfront selling commissions, upfront dealer manager fees or Distribution Fee shall be paid on Shares purchased through the Reinvestment Plan.

4.3 Due Diligence.

(a) The Company shall accept or reject each subscription within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof. If a subscription is rejected, all related subscription funds, without deduction for any expenses, shall be returned to the subscriber within ten (10) business days following the date such subscription is rejected. A sale of a Share shall be deemed by the Company to be completed for purposes of Section 4.1 herein if and only if (i) the Company has received a properly completed and executed Subscription Agreement, together with check or wire transfer, from an investor who satisfies the applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Prospectus as determined by the Participating Broker (or Managing Dealer, if applicable) in accordance with Section 2.3 of this Agreement; (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription; and (iii) such investor has been admitted as a stockholder of the Company.

4.5 Payment. Except as otherwise provided herein, the upfront commissions and dealer manager fees specified in Section 4.1 herein for the sale of any Shares shall be payable in cash by the Company, as specified in Section 4.1 herein, no later than seven (7) days after the investor subscribing for the Shares is admitted as a stockholder of the Company. Investors whose subscriptions for Shares are accepted shall be admitted no later than the end of the calendar month following the month in which such subscriptions are accepted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Company pays any commission or fees to the Managing Dealer for a sale by it or a Participating Broker of one or more Shares and the subscription is subsequently rescinded as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the applicable rate established in Section 4.1 of this Agreement, multiplied by the price of the Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the Managing Dealer after such rescinded subscription occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Company within seven (7) days following receipt of notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded subscriptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no commissions, payments or amounts whatsoever will be paid to the Managing Dealer under this Article 4 unless or until the Minimum Proceeds (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) have been raised. Until the Minimum Proceeds have been raised, investments will be held in escrow. If the Minimum Proceeds are not raised within the time period specified in the Escrow Agreement, investments will be promptly returned to investors in accordance with the Prospectus. The Company will not be liable or responsible to any Participating Broker for direct payment of commissions, dealer manager fees, distribution and shareholder servicing fees or contingent deferred sales charges to such Participating Broker; it is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Managing Dealer for payment of commissions, reallowance of dealer manager fees, distribution and shareholder servicing fees and contingent deferred sales charges to Participating Brokers.

4.6 Sales Incentives. The Company or its affiliates may provide incentive items for registered representatives of the Managing Dealer and the Participating Brokers, which in no event shall exceed an aggregate of $100 per annum per participating registered representative. In the event other incentives are provided to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers, they shall be paid only in cash, and such payments shall be made only to the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers rather than to their registered representatives. Sales incentive programs offered to the Managing Dealer or to Participating Brokers must first have been submitted for review by FINRA, and must comply with FINRA Rule 5110 or 2310, as applicable. Costs incurred in connection with such sales incentive programs, if any, shall be considered underwriting compensation.

4.7 FINRA Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Company pay or give or cause to be paid or given any compensation or incentives in excess of amounts permitted under applicable FINRA rules or published guidance.

(e) In the event the Company learns of any circumstances or facts, the existence of which causes the Company to believe that such circumstances or facts: (i) render the Registration Statement or Prospectus materially inaccurate or misleading as to any material facts; or (ii) should under applicable law otherwise be disclosed in a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or any Approved Sales Literature, it shall file an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or to any Approved Sales Literature as soon as practicable.

For purposes of this Article 9, “control person” means, with respect to any particular person, any other person who possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such particular person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. For purposes of this Article 9, “associated persons” shall be as defined under FINRA laws and regulations.

(b) The Company shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person from or against any Loss suffered by the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker unless: (i) such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person has determined, in good faith, that its course of conduct was in the best interests of the Company; (ii) such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person was acting on behalf of or performing services on behalf of the Company; (iii) such Loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct on the part of such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person or any other Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person; and (iv) such Loss is recoverable only out of the net assets of the Company and not from the personal assets of its stockholders.

-13-

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.1(a), a Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person shall not be indemnified by the Company for any Loss arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities laws violations as to such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person; or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against such Broker-Dealer Indemnified Person and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.

(d) The Managing Dealer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all Losses to which the Company may become subject, insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) a breach or alleged breach by the Managing Dealer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact made by the Managing Dealer or any of its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons, to any offeree or purchaser of any of Shares (other than any statement contained in the Prospectus or any Approved Sales Literature, or any amendment or supplement thereto, unless such statement was based on information supplied by the Managing Dealer), or (iii) any omission or alleged omission by the Managing Dealer or any of its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons, to state to any offeree or purchaser of any Shares a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made to such offeree or purchaser not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made (other than any such material fact omitted from Approved Sales Literature, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, unless such omission was based on information supplied by the Managing Dealer); and shall reimburse each Company Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such Company Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any Proceeding, whether or not resulting in any liability.

(e) The Participating Broker Agreements shall contain a provision by which each Participating Broker agrees indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against certain Losses resulting from specified acts or omissions of such Participating Broker, and designates the Company as a third-party beneficiary empowered to enforce such provision.

9.2 Contribution and Notices.

(a) If the rights to indemnification provided for in Section 9.1 would by their terms be available to a person hereunder (each, an “Indemnified Party”), but is held to be unavailable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then the Company, the Managing Dealer and the Participating Brokers, to the extent an indemnifying party with respect to an Indemnified Party (each, to such extent, an “Indemnifying Party”), shall contribute to the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as are contemplated in those paragraphs (including, but not limited to, any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any claim, action, suit or proceeding) in the ratio in which the net proceeds of the Offering of Shares have been actually received and retained by such Indemnifying Party. However, the right of contribution described in the preceding sentences is subject to the following limitation: No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(b) Any Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification under this Article 9 shall, promptly after receipt of such notice of commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or claim against him or it in respect of which a claim for contribution or indemnification may be made against another Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties, notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties. Failure to so notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise, unless the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced in its ability to defend the action as a result of such delay. If such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties are so notified, such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim at its or their own expense or in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to all parties who may be required to contribute. After notice from such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification of its or their acknowledgement of its or their obligations hereunder and its or their election to assume its or their own defense, the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties so electing shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses of litigation subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification or contribution in connection with the defense thereof, other than the reasonable costs of investigation. No party shall be required to contribute to the settlement amount of any action or claim settled without its consent.
