NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is agreed between the Managing Dealer and the Broker as follows:

Relationship.

(a) Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Managing Dealer hereby retains the Broker to use its best efforts to effect offers and sales of all or any portion of the Shares pursuant to the Offering for the account of the Company (“Share Offers and Sales”). The Broker hereby accepts such retention and covenants, warrants and agrees to conduct Share Offers and Sales according to all of the terms and conditions of the Prospectus, all applicable state, federal and other jurisdictional laws, including the 1933 Act, and any and all regulations and rules pertaining thereto, heretofore or hereafter issued by the SEC and FINRA as well as all applicable laws and regulations of foreign jurisdictions. The Broker and its associated persons (as such term is defined under FINRA laws and regulations) shall have no authority to give any information or make any representations in connection with any offer or sale of the Shares other than as contained in the Prospectus, the Subscription Agreement (as defined below), and the Approved Sales Literature (as defined herein), each as amended and supplemented.

(b) The Broker shall use its best efforts, promptly following receipt of written notice from the Managing Dealer of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, to sell the Shares to such persons and according to all such terms as are contained in the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented. The Broker shall use and distribute, in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares, only the then current Prospectus, the Subscription Agreement, and such sales literature and advertising as shall have been approved in writing by the Company and/or the Managing Dealer (the “Approved Sales Literature”). The Managing Dealer reserves the right to establish such additional procedures as it may deem necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Registration Statement, and the Broker shall comply with all such additional procedures to the extent that it has received written notice thereof.

(c) In order to purchase Shares, the subscriber must complete and execute a subscription agreement substantially in the form attached as Appendix D to the Prospectus (a “Subscription Agreement”).

(d) Until such time (if any) that monies are deliverable to the Company pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (defined below), the Broker shall instruct subscribers to make checks payable to the order of “UMB Bank, N.A., Escrow Agent For Macquarie CNL Global Income Trust, Inc.” and shall return any check made payable to any other party directly to the subscriber who submitted such check. Checks shall be made payable for the full purchase price of the Shares, as described in the Prospectus, subject to certain discounts as set forth in the Prospectus. Until such time (if any) that monies are deliverable to the Company pursuant to the escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) among the Company, Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) and UMB Bank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”), all monies received for the purchase of Shares shall promptly be transmitted by the Broker to the Escrow Agent by noon of the next business day for deposit into an escrow account with the Escrow Agent established by the Company solely for such subscriptions. Once the Company has raised $2,000,000 (the “Minimum Offering”) and the escrowed funds have been released, subscription funds shall be made payable to the Company and delivered to the Transfer Agent, on behalf of, and for deposit into one or more accounts of, the Company.

(e) After such time, if any, as monies are deliverable to the Company pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Managing Dealer may authorize the Broker to withhold the selling commissions to which it is entitled from the purchase price for Shares and forward the balance to the Company if (i) the Broker is legally

permitted to do so, and (ii) (a) the Broker meets all applicable net capital requirements under the rules of FINRA or other applicable rules regarding such an arrangement; (b) the Broker forwards the Subscription Agreement to the Company and such Subscription Agreement is accepted prior to forwarding the purchase price for the Shares, net of commissions; and (c) the Broker verifies that there are sufficient funds in the investor’s account with them to cover the entire cost of the subscription.

(f) Subscription documents for the Offering (the “Subscription Documents”) will be executed as described in the Prospectus. The Company will accept or reject each subscription within thirty (30) days of breaking escrow and thereafter within thirty (30) days of receipt of a subscription. If a subscription solicited by the Broker is rejected, the Broker shall ensure that all related subscription funds plus any interest earned thereon, and without deduction for any expenses, are returned to the relevant subscriber within ten (10) business days following the date such subscription is rejected. A sale of a Share shall be deemed to be completed if and only if: (i) the Company has received a properly completed and executed Subscription Agreement, together with payment of the full purchase price of each purchased Share, from an investor who satisfies the applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Prospectus (the “Investor Standards and Requirements”) as determined by the Broker in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription; and (iii) such investor has been admitted as a stockholder of the Company. In addition, no sale of Shares shall be completed until at least five (5) business days after the date on which the subscriber receives a copy of the Prospectus.

(g) The Broker hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and no commission or marketing support fee will be paid to the Broker with respect to that portion of any subscription which is rejected.

(h) Until the Minimum Offering is raised and the escrowed funds have been released, subscriber Subscription Documents and funds shall be delivered and deposited or transmitted by the Broker to the Escrow Agent, and thereafter to the Transfer Agent, no later than noon on the first business day following their receipt by the Broker; provided, however, if the Broker receives Subscription Documents and funds at a branch office and final supervisory review is conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), then the branch office shall transmit the Subscription Documents and funds to the Final Review Office by the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the branch office and the Final Review Office shall review the Subscription Documents and check to ensure their proper execution and form and, if they are acceptable, deliver the Subscription Documents and deposit or transmit the funds to the Escrow Agent or Transfer Agent, as applicable, by the close of business on the first business day after their receipt by the Final Review Office.

Compensation of Broker.

(a) The Managing Dealer shall reallow to the Broker, as compensation for services to be rendered by the Broker hereunder, a commission of up to seven percent (7.0%) on completed sales of Shares by such Broker, including sales made under the automatic purchase plan of the Company (the “Automatic Purchase Plan”), subject to reduction as specified in this Section 2 and the Prospectus. In addition, the Managing Dealer may reallow a marketing support fee of up to three percent (3.0%) on completed sales of Shares, including sales under the Automatic Purchase Plan, to any Broker that agrees to use its internal marketing support personnel to assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team and their internal marketing communication tools to promote the Company as more specifically set forth in Section 2(g) herein. Such rates shall remain in effect during the full term of this Agreement unless otherwise changed by a written agreement between the parties hereto. Such compensation shall be payable to the Broker by the Managing Dealer after such acceptance of the Subscription Agreement; provided however, that compensation or commissions shall not be paid by the Managing Dealer: (i) other than from funds received as compensation or commissions from the Company for the sale of its Shares; (ii) until any and all compensation or commissions payable by the Company to the Managing Dealer have been received by the Managing Dealer; and (iii) to the extent the commission payable to any broker dealer or salesman exceeds the amount allowed by any regulatory agency. The Company (and the Managing Dealer) may pay reduced commissions and/or marketing support fees or may eliminate such compensation on certain sales of Shares, including the reduction or elimination of compensation in accordance with the following paragraphs of this Section 2. Any such reduction or elimination of compensation will not, however, change the net proceeds to the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2, in the event that the Managing Dealer reallows any commission and/or fees to the Broker for the sale of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded or rejected as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Managing Dealer shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Broker by the Managing Dealer under this Agreement by an amount equal to the applicable rate established in Section 2 of this Agreement, multiplied by the price of the Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded or rejected, as applicable. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the Broker after such withdrawal occurs, the Broker shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Managing Dealer within ten (10) days following mailing of notice to the Broker by the Managing Dealer stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded or rejected subscriptions.

(c) After such time (if any) that monies are deliverable to the Company by the Transfer Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Broker may withhold the selling commissions and marketing support fees to which it is entitled from the purchase price for the Shares in the Offering and forward the balance to the Company’s Transfer Agent if it represents to the Managing Dealer that: (i) the Broker is legally permitted to do so; and (ii) (A) the Broker meets all applicable net capital requirements under the rules of FINRA or other applicable rules regarding such an arrangement; (B) the Broker has forwarded the Subscription Agreement to the Company’s Transfer Agent and received the Company’s written acceptance of the subscription prior to forwarding the purchase price for the Shares, net of the commissions and marketing support fees to which the Broker is entitled, to the Company’s Transfer Agent; and (C) the Broker has verified that there are sufficient funds in the investor’s account with the Broker to cover the entire cost of the subscription.

(d) The following persons and entities may purchase Shares net of all or a portion of the seven percent (7.0%) commissions and the three percent (3.0%) marketing support fee (assuming no other discounts apply): (i) registered principals or representatives of the Managing Dealer or Broker (and immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons); (ii) employees, officers and directors of the Company or the advisor to the Company (the “Advisor”), or of the Affiliates of either of the foregoing entities (and the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons), any Plan established exclusively for the benefit of such persons or entities, (iii) if approved by the Company’s board of directors, joint venture partners, consultants and other service providers; (iv) a client of an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws (other than any registered investment adviser 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 adviser/ broker dealer); and (v) a person investing in a bank trust account with respect to which the decision-making authority for investments made has been delegated to the bank trust department. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family members” means such person’s spouse, parents, children, brothers, sisters, grandparents, grandchildren and any such person who is so related by marriage such that this includes “step” and “in-law” relations as well as such persons so related by adoption. The amount of proceeds to the Company will not be affected by reducing or eliminating commissions and marketing support fees payable in connection with sales to investors described in this paragraph. In addition, 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 selling commissions and the marketing support fee. Any reductions in commissions or the marketing support fee will reduce the compensation otherwise payable to the Broker.

(e) In accordance with the volume discounts schedule set forth in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the amount of selling commissions otherwise payable may be reduced or eliminated with respect to sales to a subscriber or group of subscribers based upon the aggregate of Shares purchased by such subscriber or group through the Broker. It is the Broker’s responsibility to determine which investors qualify for such volume purchase discounts. To the extent an investor qualifies for a volume discount on a particular purchase, such investor’s subsequent purchases, regardless of the Shares subscribed for in such purchases, will also qualify for: (i) that volume discount; or (ii) to the extent the subsequent purchase when aggregated with the prior purchases qualifies for a greater volume discount, such greater discounts. Any request to combine more than one subscription or to treat a subsequent purchase collectively for purposes of the volume discount must be made by the Broker in writing in a form satisfactory to the Managing Dealer and must set forth the basis of such request. Any such request will be subject to prior verification by the Broker that all of such subscriptions were made by a single “purchaser.”

For purposes of determining the applicability of discounts, a single “purchaser” means: (i) an individual, his or her spouse, and their children under the age of 21, who purchase our Shares for their own accounts; (ii) a corporation, partnership, association, joint-stock company, trust fund, or any organized group of persons, whether incorporated or not; (iii) an employee’s trust, pension, profit-sharing, or other employee benefit plan qualified under Section 401 of the Code; and (iv) all pension, trust, or other funds maintained by a given bank. For purposes of volume discounts, all such Shares must be purchased through the same Broker. Any such discounts will reduce the amount of compensation otherwise payable to the Broker. Purchases through the Automatic Purchase Plan shall be eligible for volume discounts but for none of the other discounts that are described in the Prospectus.

(f) No commissions or marketing support fees will be paid to the Broker in connection with any Shares purchased through the Distribution Reinvestment Plan.

(g) Eligibility to receive the marketing support fee is conditioned upon the Broker’s compliance with one or more of the following conditions. Any determination regarding the Broker’s compliance with the listed conditions will be made by the Managing Dealer, in its sole discretion.

(i) The Broker has internal marketing support personnel (such as telemarketers, or a marketing director) to assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team;

(ii) The Broker has and uses internal marketing communications vehicles, including, but not limited to, newsletters, conference calls, interactive CD-ROMs, and internal mail to promote the Company and the Offering;

(iii) The Broker will answer investors’ inquiries concerning monthly statements, valuations, distribution rates, tax information, annual reports, reinvestment and redemption rights and procedures, Automatic Purchase Plan procedures, the financial status of the Company and the real estate markets in which the Company has invested;

(iv) The Broker will assist investors with reinvestments, Automatic Purchase Plan purchases and redemptions;

(v) The Broker will maintain the technology necessary to adequately service the Company’s investors as otherwise associated with the Offering; and

(vi) The Broker will provide other services requested by investors from time to time.

(v) If the Broker relies upon the results of any inquiry conducted by another member of FINRA or any other third party with respect to the obligations set forth in subparagraphs (iii) or (iv) herein, the Broker shall have reasonable grounds to believe that such inquiry was conducted with due care, that the persons conducting or directing the inquiry consented to the disclosure of the results of the inquiry and that the person who participated in or conducted the inquiry is not the Managing Dealer or a sponsor or an Affiliate of the sponsor of the Company;

(vi) The Broker will assume exclusive responsibility for failures with respect to the calculation, offer, or omissions of investor qualifications for reduced commissions under discounts for volume purchases or otherwise, as described in the Prospectus;

(m) The Broker shall conduct solicitation and other activities only in accordance with this Agreement, the Prospectus, the 1933 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and FINRA.

(n) The Broker acknowledges receipt of copies of the Prospectus describing the terms of the Offering and the Shares offered thereby, including the Subscription Agreement as an attachment thereto.

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.
