 Share Redemption Program 
 While you should view your investment as long
term with limited liquidity, we have adopted this limited share redemption program, whereby stockholders may request that we redeem all or any portion of their shares in accordance with the procedures and subject to certain conditions and
limitations described below. Because the volume limitations described below are based, in part, on the NAV of each class as of the last day of the quarter preceding the redemption request, the availability of redemptions in any quarter will be
dependent upon, among other things, the success of the Offering. 







 Only those stockholders who received their shares directly from us (including through our
distribution reinvestment plan, except as set forth below) or received their shares through one or more transactions that were not for cash or other consideration are eligible to participate in our share redemption program. Once our shares are
transferred, directly or indirectly, for value by a stockholder (other than transfers which occur in connection with a non-taxable transaction, such as a gift or contribution to a family trust), the transferee and all subsequent holders of the
shares are not eligible, unless otherwise approved by our management in its sole discretion, to participate in the share redemption program with respect to such shares that were transferred for value and any additional shares acquired by such
transferee through our distribution reinvestment program. 
 Due to the illiquid nature of investments in real property, we may
not have sufficient liquid resources to fund redemption requests. In addition, we have established limitations on the amount of funds we may use for redemptions during any calendar quarter. See “Redemption Limitations” below. Further, our
board of directors has the right to modify, suspend or terminate the share redemption program if it deems such action to be in the best interest of our stockholders. 
 A stockholder’s request for redemption in accordance with any of the special treatment described below in the event of the death or disability of a stockholder must be submitted within 18 months of
the death of the stockholder or the initial determination of the stockholder’s disability (which we define as such term is defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code), as further described below. 

You may request that we redeem shares of our common stock through your financial advisor or directly with our transfer agent. We will
generally adhere to the following procedures relating to the redeeming of shares of our common stock: 
  

	 	•	 	 Under our share redemption program, on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading (a business day), stockholders may request that we
redeem all or any portion of their shares. Redemption requests received in good order by our transfer agent or a fund intermediary on a business day and before the close of business (4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on that day will be effected at a
redemption price equal to our NAV per share for the class of shares being redeemed calculated after the close of business on that day (subject to price changes in the event a stockholder elects to have an unsatisfied redemption request automatically
resubmitted at the start of the next quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable). 


  

	 	•	 	 Redemption requests received in good order by our transfer agent or a fund intermediary on a business day, but after the close of business on that day,
will be effected at our NAV per share for the class of shares being redeemed calculated after the close of business on the next business day. The redemption price per share on any business day will be our NAV per share for the class of shares being
redeemed, less any applicable short-term trading discounts. As a result of this process, you will not know the redemption price at the time you submit your redemption request. The price at which your redemption is executed could be higher or lower
than our NAV per share at the time you submit your redemption request. Although a stockholder will not know at the time he or she requests the redemption of shares the exact price at which such redemption request will be processed, the stockholder
may cancel the redemption request before it has been processed by notifying a customer service representative available on our toll-free, automated telephone line, (888) 310-9352. The line is open on each business day between the hours of 9:00
a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (Eastern time). Redemption requests received in good order before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on a business day must be cancelled before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the same day. Redemption requests received in good order after 4:00
p.m. (Eastern time) on a business day, or at any time on a day that is not a business day, must be cancelled before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the next business day. In the event a stockholder elects to have an unsatisfied redemption request
automatically resubmitted at the start of the next quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable, the stockholder may withdraw the redemption request up to 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the business day that the request
would otherwise be automatically resubmitted. If the redemption request is not cancelled before the applicable time described above, the stockholder will be contractually bound to redemption of the shares and will not be permitted to cancel the
request prior to the payment of redemption proceeds. 


  

	 	•	 	 Redemption requests may generally be made by phone at (888) 310-9352 or in writing by submitting a completed redemption form, which we will
provide to you at no charge, to: 


  

			
	 For regular mail:
 DST Systems, Inc.
 PO Box 219079

Kansas City, Missouri 64121-9079
	  	 For overnight deliveries:

DST Systems, Inc.
 430 West 7th Street, Suite
219079
 Kansas City, Missouri 64105


 Corporate investors and other non-individual entities must have an appropriate certification on file
authorizing redemptions. A signature guarantee may be required. 
 With respect to retirement accounts or other investment
accounts registered through custodians, trustees or fiduciaries, redemption requests can only be made by the authorized custodian, trustee or fiduciary, as applicable. Redemption requests with respect to such accounts or in connection with the death
or disability of a stockholder must be made in writing. 

  
 2 









	 	•	 	 For processed redemptions, stockholders may request that redemption proceeds are paid by mailed check provided that the amount is less than $100,000
and the check is mailed to an address on file with the transfer agent for at least 30 days. 


  

	 	•	 	 Processed redemptions of more than $100,000 will be paid only via ACH or wire transfer. For this reason, stockholders who own more than $100,000 of our
common stock must provide bank instructions for their brokerage account or designated U.S. bank account. Stockholders who own less than $100,000 of our common stock may also receive redemption proceeds via ACH or wire transfer, provided the payment
amount is at least $5,000. For all redemptions paid via wire transfer, the funds will be wired to the account on file with the transfer agent or, upon instructions made with a medallion signature guarantee, to another financial institution provided
that the stockholder has made the necessary funds transfer arrangements. The customer service representative can provide detailed instructions on establishing funding arrangements and designating your bank or brokerage account on file. Funds will be
sent only to U.S. financial institutions (ACH network members). 


  

	 	•	 	 A medallion signature guarantee will be required in certain circumstances. The medallion signature process protects stockholders by verifying the
authenticity of a signature and limiting unauthorized fraudulent transactions. A medallion signature guarantee may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker-dealer, clearing agency, savings association, or other financial institution
which participates in a medallion program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. The three recognized medallion programs are the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP), the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (SEMP) and the
New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program (NYSE MSP). Signature guarantees from financial institutions which are not participating in any of these medallion programs will not be accepted. A notary public cannot provide signature
guarantees. We reserve the right to amend, waive or discontinue this policy at any time and establish other criteria for verifying the authenticity of any redemption or transaction request. We may require a medallion signature guarantee if, among
other reasons: (1) the amount of the redemption request is over $100,000; (2) you wish to have redemption proceeds transferred to an account other than the designated bank or brokerage account on file for at least 30 days or sent to an
address other than your address of record for the past 30 days; or (3) our transfer agent cannot confirm your identity or suspects fraudulent activity. 


 Because we intend to accrue distributions with daily record dates, we expect that your redemption price will reflect an impact or adjustment in NAV from the distribution accrued since the most recent
quarter-end, to which you will be entitled. However, we reserve the right to adjust the periods during which distributions accrue and are paid. 
 Minimum Account Redemptions 
 In the event that any stockholder fails to
maintain the minimum balance of $2,000 of shares of our common stock, we may redeem all of the shares held by that stockholder at the redemption price in effect on the date we determine that the stockholder has failed to meet the minimum balance,
less any applicable short-term trading discounts unless waived. Minimum account redemptions will apply even in the event that the failure to meet the minimum balance is caused solely by a decline in our NAV. Minimum account redemptions are subject
to short-term trading discount discussed below to the extent the redeemed shares were purchased within 365 days of redemption. 

Available Liquidity 
 We may, in the Advisor’s discretion, after taking the interests of our company as a whole and the interests of our remaining stockholders into consideration, use proceeds from any available sources
at our disposal to satisfy redemption requests, subject to the limitation on the amount of funds we may use described below under “Redemption Limitations.” Potential sources of funding redemptions include, but are not limited to, cash on
hand, cash available from borrowings, cash from the sale of shares of our common stock, and cash from liquidations of investments, to the extent that such funds are not otherwise dedicated to a particular use, such as working capital, cash
distributions to stockholders, purchases of real property, debt related or other investments, or redemption of OP Units. Our board of directors has no obligation to use other sources to redeem shares of our common stock in any circumstances. In
order to maintain a reasonable level of liquidity, we intend to generally maintain under normal circumstances the following aggregate allocation to liquid assets: (1) 10% of the aggregate NAV of our outstanding Class A, Class W and Class I
shares up to $1 billion of collective Class A, Class W and Class I share NAV and (2) 5% of the aggregate NAV of our outstanding Class A, Class W and Class I shares in excess of $1 billion of collective Class A, Class W and Class
I share NAV.

 Payment of Redemption Proceeds 

Under normal market conditions, we will pay redemption proceeds, less any applicable short-term trading discounts and any applicable tax
or other withholding required by law, by the third business day following receipt by our transfer agent or a fund intermediary of a redemption request in good order. However, when you request to redeem shares for which the purchase money for the
shares being redeemed has not yet been collected, the request will be executed at the next determined NAV, but the transfer agent will not release the proceeds until your purchase payment clears. This may take up to 15 days or more. Because our NAV
per share for each class of common stock will be calculated at the close of each business day, the redemption price may fluctuate between the date we receive the redemption request and the date on which redemption proceeds are paid. As a result, the
redemption price that a stockholder will receive may be different from the redemption price on the day the redemption proceeds are paid. 
 Redemption Limitations 
 Currently, our share redemption program imposes a
quarterly cap on the “net redemptions” of each share class equal to the amount of shares of such class with an aggregate value (based on the redemption price per share on the day the redemption is effected) of up to 5% of the NAV of such
class as of the last day of the previous calendar quarter (the “Quarterly Cap”). We use the term “net redemptions” to mean, for any class and any quarter, the excess of our share redemptions (capital outflows) of such class over
the share purchases (capital inflows) of such class in the Offering. As a result, the Quarterly Cap will be relevant during a calendar quarter only to the extent the aggregate value of share redemptions of such class during the quarter exceeds the
aggregate value of share purchases of such class in the same quarter. Measuring redemptions on a net basis will allow us to provide our stockholders with more liquidity during quarters when we are experiencing inflows of capital. On any business day
during a calendar quarter, the maximum amount available for redemptions of any class will be equal to (1) 5% of the NAV of such class of shares, calculated as of the last day of the previous calendar quarter, plus (2) proceeds from sales
of new shares of such class in the Offering (including reinvestment of distributions) since the beginning of the current calendar quarter, less (3) proceeds paid to redeem shares of such class since the beginning of the current calendar
quarter. The Quarterly Cap will be monitored each business day by us based on reports from our transfer agent, which will provide daily updated information on the proceeds from sales of new shares and the redemption proceeds paid by us. If the
Quarterly Cap is reached during a given day for any class of shares, redemptions of that share class will be satisfied pro rata on that day and we will no longer redeem shares of such class for the remainder of the quarter, regardless of additional
share purchases of such class by investors for the remainder of such quarter. 
 However, for each future quarter, our board of
directors reserves the right to choose whether the Quarterly Cap will be applied to “gross redemptions,” meaning, for any class and any quarter, amounts paid to redeem shares of such class since the beginning of such calendar quarter, or
“net redemptions.” In order for the board of directors to change the application of the Quarterly Cap from net redemptions to gross redemptions or vice versa, we will notify stockholders through a prospectus supplement and/or a special or
periodic report filed with the Commission, as well as in a press release or on our website, at least 10 days before the first business day of the quarter for which the new test will apply. 

In addition, except for Class E redemption requests following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder, or in the event that a
Class E stockholder’s shares are redeemed because the stockholder has failed to maintain the $2,000 minimum account balance, our share redemption program limits redemptions of Class E shares in any quarter to an amount equal to (i) funds
received from the sale of Class E shares under our distribution reinvestment plan during the most recently completed calendar quarter, less (ii) funds used for redemptions of Class E shares following the death or qualifying disability of a
stockholder during the most recently completed calendar quarter, plus (iii) 50% of the difference between (a) the proceeds (net of sales commissions) received by us from the sale of Class A, Class W and Class I shares in the Offering
during the most recently completed calendar quarter, and (b) the dollar amount used to redeem Class A, Class W and Class I shares during the most recently completed calendar quarter. However, subject to the Quarterly Cap described above
that applies to all classes of our common stock, our board of directors may from time to time authorize funds for redemptions of Class E shares in excess of the additional Class E specific limit described above, in its sole discretion. The
additional Class E redemption limitation described in this paragraph is referred to as the “Additional Class E Limitation.” The Quarterly Cap limitation for each class and the Additional Class E Limitation are collectively referred to as
the “Volume Limitations.” 
 On the first business day during any quarter in which we have reached that quarter’s
redemption Volume Limitation with respect to any class of our common stock, we will promptly publicly disclose such fact through a filing with the Commission and a posting to our website in order to notify stockholders of such class that the Volume
Limitation has been reached and when redemptions will resume. Unless our board of directors determines to modify, suspend or terminate our share redemption program, our share redemption program with respect to such class of shares will automatically
and without stockholder notification resume normal operation on the first day of the calendar quarter following the quarter in which the quarterly Volume Limitation was reached. 

  
 4 








 
After the Volume Limitation has been reached in a quarter with respect to any class of our common stock, any unsatisfied portion of a redemption request must be resubmitted at the start of the
next quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable, unless the stockholder has elected on the redemption form for us to consider any unsatisfied potion of the request automatically resubmitted at the start of the next
quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable. 
 Even when redemption requests do not exceed
the quarterly Volume Limitation with respect to any class, we may not have a sufficient amount of liquid assets to satisfy redemption requests because our assets will consist primarily of properties and types of real estate-related assets that
cannot be readily liquidated. 
 Our board of directors may modify, suspend or terminate our share redemption program if it
deems such action to be in the best interest of our stockholders. Events that may cause our board of directors to decide to modify, suspend or terminate the share redemption program include, but are not limited to, unavailability of sufficient
liquidity to fund redemption requests, adverse developments in financial markets, regulatory changes, changes in law or if our board of directors becomes aware of undisclosed material information that it believes should be publicly disclosed before
shares are redeemed. Accordingly, stockholders cannot be assured that all of the shares in their redemption requests will be redeemed. Any suspension or termination of, or material modification to, the share redemption program will be disclosed to
stockholders. If the share redemption program is suspended by our board of directors other than as a result of reaching the quarterly Volume Limitation of a particular class of shares, our board of directors must affirmatively authorize the
recommencement of the program before stockholder requests will be considered again. The start of a new calendar quarter will not automatically trigger the recommencement of the share redemption program. We will provide notice to stockholders of any
recommencement of the share redemption program following such a suspension due to action of our board of directors. Any modification, suspension or termination of the share redemption program will not affect the rights of holders of OP Units to
cause us to redeem their OP Units for, at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock, cash, or a combination of both pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement. 
 If the full amount of shares of any class of our common stock requested to be redeemed as of any given date cannot be redeemed due to the Volume Limitation for such class or lack of readily available
funds, available funds will be allocated pro rata taking into consideration the total number of shares requested to be redeemed and the NAV of our classes of common stock on that date, subject to the Volume Limitation. With respect to any pro rata
treatment, redemption requests following the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder will be considered first, as a group, with any remaining available funds allocated pro rata among all other redemption requests. Such determinations
regarding our share redemption program will not affect any determinations that may be made by the board of directors regarding requests by holders of OP Units for redemption of their OP Units pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement.

 All unsatisfied redemption requests (including the unsatisfied portion of any request not satisfied in full) due to any of
the limitations described above must be resubmitted at the start of the next quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable, unless the stockholder has elected on the redemption form for us to consider any unsatisfied
portion of the request automatically resubmitted at the start of the next quarter or upon recommencement of the share redemption program, as applicable. At the start of the next quarter, or when normal operation of the program otherwise recommences,
available funds will be allocated pro rata based on the total number of shares of such class subject to pending redemption requests, subject to the Volume Limitation (with priority given to redemption requests following the death or qualifying
disability of a stockholder, as described in the paragraph above). Redemption requests that are considered resubmitted pursuant to this paragraph and satisfied on a date other than the date of the original redemption request will be effected at a
redemption price equal to our NAV per share for the class of shares being redeemed calculated after the close of business on the date the redemption is actually made, not the date the request was originally submitted. 

To avoid certain issues related to our ability to comply with the distribution requirements applicable to us as a company that has
elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust and utilize the deficiency dividend procedure, we have implemented procedures designed to track our stockholders’ percentage interests in our common stock in order to identify any such
dividend equivalent redemptions and will decline to effect a redemption to the extent that we believe that it would constitute a dividend equivalent redemption. 
 Short-Term Trading Discounts 
 There is no minimum holding period for
shares of our common stock and stockholders can request that we redeem their shares at any time. However, subject to limited exceptions, shares redeemed within 365 days of the date of purchase will be redeemed at NAV per share for the class of
shares being redeemed less a short-term trading discount equal to 2% of the gross proceeds otherwise payable with respect to the redemption. This short-term trading discount will also generally apply to minimum account


  
 5 








 
redemptions that occur during the 365 day period following the purchase of the shares. The short-term trading discount will inure indirectly to the benefit of our remaining stockholders and is
intended to offset the trading costs, market impact and other costs associated with short-term trading in our common stock. We may, from time to time, waive the short-term trading discount in the following circumstances: 

 

	 	•	 	 redemptions resulting from death or qualifying disability; 



 

	 	•	 	 in the event that a stockholder’s shares are redeemed because the stockholder has failed to maintain the $2,000 minimum account balance; or



  

	 	•	 	 with respect to shares purchased through our distribution reinvestment plan. 



Shares of our common stock may be sold to certain 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, bank or trust company accounts and accounts of certain
financial institutions or intermediaries for which we may not apply the redemption discount to underlying stockholders, often because of administrative or systems limitations. 
 Other 
 When you make a request to have shares redeemed, you should note
the following: 
  

	 	•	 	 any short-term trading discount will be applied, on a first in-first out basis unless otherwise specified by the stockholder or the stockholder’s
representative; for this purpose, shares held for the longest period of time will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held for the shortest period of time as being redeemed last; 



 

	 	•	 	 if you are requesting that some but not all of your shares be redeemed, keep your balance above $2,000 to avoid minimum account redemption, if
applicable; 


  

	 	•	 	 you will not receive interest on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks; and 



 

	 	•	 	 under applicable anti-money laundering regulations and other federal regulations, redemption requests may be suspended, restricted or canceled and the
proceeds may be withheld. 


 Internal Revenue Service regulations require us to determine and disclose on Form
1099-B the adjusted cost basis for shares of our stock sold or redeemed. Although there are several available methods for determining the adjusted cost basis, unless you elect otherwise, which you may do by calling our customer service number at
(888) 310-9352, we will utilize the first-in-first-out method. The tax treatment of stockholders whose shares of our common stock are redeemed by us under the share redemption program will depend on the specific circumstances of the
stockholder, and each stockholder should consult his or her own tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of redemptions. 
 As
previously described, our share redemption program, including redemption upon the death or disability of a stockholder, is not intended to provide liquidity to any stockholder (and any subsequent transferee of such stockholder) who acquired,
directly or indirectly, his or her shares by purchase or other taxable transaction from another stockholder, unless shares acquired in such transactions are approved for redemption by our management in its sole discretion. In connection with a
request for redemption, the requesting stockholder or his or her estate, heir or beneficiary will be required to certify to us that the stockholder either (1) acquired the shares to be repurchased directly from us and no direct or indirect
transfer of the shares has occurred since the stockholder acquired the shares from us, or (2) acquired the shares from the original stockholder, directly or indirectly, by way of one or more transactions that were not for cash (or other
consideration) in connection with a non-taxable transaction, including transactions for the benefit of a member of the original stockholder’s immediate or extended family (including the original stockholder’s spouse, parents, siblings,
children or grandchildren and including relatives by marriage) through a transfer to a custodian, trustee or other fiduciary for the account of the original stockholder or members of the original stockholder’s immediate or extended family in
connection with an estate planning transaction, including by bequest or inheritance upon death or operation of law. 
 Moreover,
all shares of our common stock requested to be repurchased must be beneficially owned by the stockholder of record making the request or his or her estate, heir or beneficiary, or the party requesting the repurchase must be authorized to do so by
the stockholder of record of the shares or his or her estate, heir or beneficiary, and such shares of common stock must be fully transferable and not subject to any liens or encumbrances. In certain cases, we may ask the requesting party provide
evidence satisfactory to us that the shares requested for repurchase are not subject to any liens or encumbrances. If we determine that a lien exists against the shares, we will not be obligated to redeem any shares subject to the lien. 

  
 6 








 As set forth above, we will redeem shares upon the death of a stockholder who is a natural
person, subject to the conditions and limitations described above, including shares held by such stockholder through a revocable grantor trust, or an IRA or other retirement or profit-sharing plan, after receiving written notice from the estate of
the stockholder, the recipient of the shares through bequest or inheritance, or, in the case of a revocable grantor trust, the trustee of such trust, who shall have the sole ability to request redemption on behalf of the trust. We must receive the
written redemption request within 18 months after the death of the stockholder in order for the requesting party to rely on any of the special treatment described above that may be afforded in the event of the death of a stockholder. Such a written
request must be accompanied by a certified copy of the official death certificate of the stockholder. If spouses are joint registered holders of shares, the request to redeem the shares may be made if either of the registered holders dies. If the
stockholder is not a natural person, such as certain trusts or a partnership, corporation or other similar entity, the right of redemption upon death does not apply. 
 Furthermore, as set forth above, we will redeem shares held by a stockholder who is a natural person who is deemed to have a qualifying disability (which we define as such term is defined in
Section 72(m)(7) of the Code), subject to the conditions and limitations described above, including shares held by such stockholder through a revocable grantor trust, or an IRA or other retirement or profit-sharing plan, after receiving written
notice from such stockholder, provided that the condition causing the qualifying disability was not pre-existing on the date that the stockholder became a stockholder. We must receive the written redemption request within 18 months of the initial
determination of the stockholder’s disability in order for the stockholder to rely on any of the waivers described above that may be granted in the event of the disability of a stockholder. If spouses are joint registered holders of shares, the
request to redeem the shares may be made if either of the registered holders acquires a Qualifying Disability. If the stockholder is not a natural person, such as certain trusts or a partnership, corporation or other similar entity, the right of
redemption upon disability does not apply.
