Accounts.


 


5.1           Initial
Capital Contributions; Mandatory Capital Contributions; Bluerock Supplemental Capital Contribution


 




    	-12-



    	 



    

  


(a)           As
of the date hereof, Bluerock and Bell have made the initial Capital Contributions set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.
$300,000 of the initial Capital Contributions has been used to fund (or to reimburse Bell Partners, Inc. for funding) the Earnest
Money pursuant to the Purchase Contract and $402,000 has been used to fund the Rate Lock Deposit pursuant to the Rate Lock Letter
Agreement and, in connection therewith, the Purchase Contract has been concurrently assigned to the Company. In the event that
(i) the Earnest Money or any portion thereof is forfeited to Seller pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract or as the result
of any litigation or settlement of litigation in connection thereto or (ii) the Rate Lock Deposit or any portion thereof is forfeited
to Lender pursuant to the terms of the Rate Lock Letter Agreement or as the result of any litigation or settlement of litigation
in connection thereto and such forfeiture under the preceding clauses (i) or (ii) is due to a Bluerock Pre-Closing Default, then
Bluerock shall solely bear such forfeiture, with Bluerock being required to reimburse Bell for forty percent (40%) of all amounts
so forfeited and 100% of any Pre-Closing Costs incurred by Bell or its Affiliates. Conversely, in the event that (i) the Earnest
Money or any portion thereof is forfeited to Seller pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract or as the result of any litigation
or settlement of litigation in connection thereto or (ii) the Rate Lock Deposit or any portion thereof is forfeited to Lender pursuant
to the terms of the Rate Lock Letter Agreement or as the result of any litigation or settlement of litigation in connection thereto
and such forfeiture under the preceding clauses (i) or (ii) is due to a Bell Pre-Closing Default, then Bell shall solely bear such
forfeiture, with Bell being required to reimburse Bluerock for sixty percent (60%) of all amounts so forfeited and 100% of any
Pre-Closing Costs incurred by Bluerock or its Affiliates. The obligations of Bluerock pursuant to this section are guaranteed by
Bluerock Real Estate, L.L.C. and the obligations of Bell pursuant to this section are guaranteed by Bell Partners Inc. Any sums
due by any party hereunder that are not received within five (5) days of when same are owing shall bear interest at an annual rate
equal to the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%) or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Each party shall be entitled
to maintain an action at law or equity to enforce the other party’s obligations hereunder and shall be entitled to recover
past due amounts, including interest as provided above, together with all attorneys’ fees incurred in seeking recovery and
collection of amounts due hereunder and enforcing each party’s respective obligations hereunder.


 


(b)           Subject
to the conditions set forth in Section 4, Bluerock and Bell shall each make their respective Mandatory Bluerock Capital
Contribution and Mandatory Bell Capital Contribution.


 


5.2           Additional
Capital Contributions.


 


(a)           Additional
Capital Contributions may be called for from the Members by the Managers by written notice to the Members from time to time as
and to the extent capital is necessary to effect an investment or expenditures approved by the Managers. Except as otherwise agreed
by the Members, such subsequent and additional Capital Contributions shall be in an amount for each Member equal to the product
of the amount of the aggregate Capital Contribution called for multiplied by such Member’s Percentage Interest, and shall
be payable by the Members to the Company upon the earlier of (i) twenty (20) days after written request from the Company, or (ii)
the date when the Capital Contribution is required, as set forth in a written request from the Company.


 


(b)           If
a Member (a “Defaulting Member”) fails to make a Capital Contribution that is required as provided in Section
5.2(a) within the time frame required therein (the amount of the failed contribution and related loan shall be the “Default
Amount”), the other Member, provided that it has made the Capital Contribution required to be made by it, in addition
to any other remedies it may have hereunder or at law, shall have one or more of the following remedies:


 




    	-13-



    	 



    

  


(i)          to
advance to the Company on behalf of, and as a loan to the Defaulting Member, an amount equal to the Default Amount to be evidenced
by a promissory note in form reasonably satisfactory to the non-failing Member (each such loan, a “Default Loan”).
The Capital Account of the Defaulting Member shall be credited with the amount of such Default Amount attributable to a Capital
Contribution and the aggregate of such amounts shall constitute a debt owed by the Defaulting Member to the non-failing Member.
Any Default Loan shall bear interest at the rate of twenty (20%) percent per annum, but in no event in excess of the highest rate
permitted by applicable laws (the “Default Loan Rate”), and shall be payable by the Defaulting Member on demand
from the non-failing Member and from any Distributions due to the Defaulting Member hereunder. Interest on a Default Loan to the
extent unpaid, shall accrue and compound on a quarterly basis. A Default Loan shall be prepayable, in whole or in part, at any
time or from time to time without penalty. Any such Default Loan shall be with full recourse to the Defaulting Member and shall
be secured by the Defaulting Member’s interest in the Company including, without limitation, such Defaulting Member’s
right to Distributions. In furtherance thereof, upon the making of such Default Loan, the Defaulting Member hereby pledges, assigns
and grants a security interest in its Interest to the non-failing Member and agrees to promptly execute such documents and statements
reasonably requested by the non-failing Member to further evidence and secure such security interest. Any advance by the non-failing
Member on behalf of a Defaulting Member pursuant to this Section 5.2(b)(i) shall be deemed to be a Capital Contribution
made by the Defaulting Member except as otherwise expressly provided herein. All Distributions to the Defaulting Member hereunder
shall be applied first to payment of any interest due under any Default Loan and then to principal until all amounts due thereunder
are paid in full. While any Default Loan is outstanding, the Company shall be obligated to pay directly to the non-failing Member,
for application to and until all Default Loans have been paid in full, the amount of (x) any Distributions payable to the Defaulting
Member, and (y) any proceeds of the sale of the Defaulting Member’s Interest in the Company;


 


(ii)         subject
to any applicable thin capitalization limitations on indebtedness of the Company, to treat its portion of such Capital Contribution
as a loan to the Company (rather than a Capital Contribution) and to advance to the Company as a loan to the Company an amount
equal to the Default Amount, which loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note in form reasonably satisfactory to the non-failing
Member and which loan shall bear interest at the Default Loan Rate and be payable on a first priority basis by the Company from
available Cash from Operations and Cash from Sale or Refinancing, prior to any Distributions made to the Defaulting Member. If
each Member has loans outstanding to the Company under this provision, such loans shall be payable to each Member in proportion
to the outstanding balances of such loans to each Member at the time of payment. Any advance to the Company pursuant to this Section
5.2(b)(ii) shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution made by the Defaulting Member;


 


(iii)        in
lieu of the remedies set forth in subparagraphs (i) or (ii), revoke its portion of such additional Capital Contribution, whereupon
the portion of the Capital Contribution made by the non-failing Member shall be returned within ten (10) days with interest computed
at the Default Loan Rate by the Company.


 




    	-14-



    	 



    

  


(c)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2, no additional Capital Contributions shall be required under Section 5.2
from any Member if (i) the Company or any other Person shall be in default (or with notice or the passage of time or both, would
be in default) in any material respect under any loan, indenture, mortgage, lease, agreement or instrument to which the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or any of its properties or assets is
or may be bound; provided, however, if such additional Capital Contribution is required to cure a monetary default thereunder then
this subsection (i) exception shall not apply, (ii) any other Member, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be insolvent
or bankrupt or in the process of liquidation, termination or dissolution, (iii) any other Member, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
shall be subjected to any pending litigation (x) in which the amount in controversy exceeds $500,000, (y) which litigation is not
being defended by an insurance company who would be responsible for the payment of any judgment in such litigation, and (z) which
litigation if adversely determined could have a material adverse effect on such other Member and/or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
and/or could interfere with their ability to perform their obligations hereunder or under any Collateral Agreement, or (iv) there
has been a material adverse change in (including, but not limited to, the financial condition of) any other Member (and/or its
Affiliates) which, in Member’s reasonable judgment, prevents such other Member (and/or its Affiliates) from performing, or
substantially interferes with their ability to perform, their obligations hereunder or under any Collateral Agreement. If any of
the foregoing events shall have occurred and any Member elects not to make a Capital Contribution on account thereof, then any
other Member which has made its pro rata share of such Capital Contribution shall be entitled to a return of such Capital Contribution
from the Company.


 


5.3           Percentage
Ownership Interest. The Members shall have the initial percentage ownership interests (as the same are adjusted as provided
in this Agreement, a “Percentage Interest”) in the Company set forth on Exhibit A immediately following
the Capital Contributions provided for in Section 5.1. The Percentage Interests of the Members in the Company shall be adjusted
monthly so that the respective Percentage Interests of the Members at any time shall be in proportion to their respective cumulative
Total Investment made (or deemed to be made) pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2. Percentage Interests shall not be
adjusted by Distributions made (or deemed made) to a Member.


 


5.4           Return
of Capital Contribution. Except as approved by each of the Members, no Member shall have any right to withdraw or make a demand
for withdrawal of the balance reflected in such Member’s Capital Account (as determined under Section 5.6) until the
full and complete winding up and liquidation of the business of the Company.


 


5.5           No
Interest on Capital. Interest earned on Company funds shall inure solely to the benefit of the Company, and no interest shall
be paid upon any Capital Contributions nor upon any undistributed or reinvested income or profits of the Company.


 




    	-15-



    	 



    

  


5.6           Capital
Accounts. A separate capital account (the “Capital Account”) shall be maintained for each Member in accordance
with Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, the Capital Account of each Member shall be
increased by (i) the amount of any Capital Contributions made by such Member, (ii) the amount of income allocated to such
Member and (iii) the amount of income or profits, if any, allocated to such Member not otherwise taken into account in this Section
5.6. The Capital Account of each Member shall be reduced by (i) the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any property
distributed to the Member by the Company (net of liabilities secured by such distributed property that the Member is considered
to assume or take subject to), (ii) the amount of Loss allocated to the Member and (iii) the amount of expenses or losses, if any,
allocated to such Member not otherwise taken into account in this Section 5.6. The Capital Accounts of the Members shall
not be increased or decreased pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect a revaluation of the Company’s
assets on the Company’s books in connection with any contribution of money or other property to the Company pursuant to Section
5.2 by existing Members. If any property other than cash is distributed to a Member, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall
be adjusted as if such property had instead been sold by the Company for a price equal to its fair market value, the gain or loss
allocated pursuant to Section 7, and the proceeds distributed in the manner set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 or
Section 13.3(d)(iii). No Member shall be obligated to restore any negative balance in its Capital Account. No Member shall
be compensated for any positive balance in its Capital Account except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The foregoing provisions
and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with the provisions
of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations.


 


5.7           New
Members. The Company may issue additional Interests and thereby admit a new Member or Members, as the case may be, to the Company,
only if such new Member (i) has delivered to the Company its Capital Contribution, (ii) has agreed in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement by becoming a party hereto, and (iii) has delivered such additional documentation as the Company shall
reasonably require to so admit such new Member to the Company. Without the prior written consent of each then-current Member, a
new Member may not be admitted to the Company if the Company would, or may, have in the aggregate more than one hundred (100) members.
For purposes of determining the number of members under this Section 5.7, a Person (the “Beneficial Owner”)
indirectly owning an interest in the Company through a partnership, grantor trust or S corporation (as such terms are used
in the Code) (the “Flow-Through Entity”) shall be considered a member, but only if (i) substantially all of
the value of the Beneficial Owner’s interest in the Flow-Through Entity is attributable to the Flow-Through Entity’s
interest (direct or indirect) in the Company and (ii) in the sole discretion of the Managers, a principal purpose of the use of
the Flow-Through Entity is to permit the Company to satisfy the 100-member limitation.


 


Section
6.            Distributions.


 


The Managers shall calculate
and determine the amount of Distributable Funds for each applicable period. Except as provided in Sections 5.2(b), 6.3 or
13.3 or otherwise provided in this Agreement, Distributable Funds, if any, shall be distributed to the Members (or, as to
the Disposition Commission, to Bell Partners Inc.) as set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 below, in proportion to their Percentage
Interests, on the 15th day of the month following each calendar quarter or from time to time as determined by the Managers
(or in the case of the Disposition Commission to Bell Partners Inc. on or promptly following the date of the disposition of the
Property).

6.1          Cash
from Operations. Distributable Funds arising from Cash from Operations shall be distributed to the Members in proportion to
their Percentage Interests.


 


6.2          Cash
from Sale or Refinancing.. Distributable Funds arising from Cash from Sale or Refinancing shall be distributed as follows:


 


(a)           First,
to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests until the Members have been distributed (under this Section 6.2(a) and
Section 6.1) an amount equal to their accrued but undistributed Preferred Return;


 


(b)           Second,
Disposition Commissions payable to Bell Partners Inc. under Section 9.6(c); and


 


(c)           Third,
100% to the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests.


 


6.3           Indemnity
Obligations Any distributions otherwise payable to a Member under this Agreement shall be applied first to satisfy amounts
due and payable on account of the indemnity and/or contribution obligations of such Member under this Agreement and/or any other
agreement delivered by such Member to the Company or any other Member (including but not limited to the Backstop Agreement) but
shall be deemed distributed to such Member for purposes of this Agreement.


 


6.4           Distributions
in Kind. In the discretion of the Managers, Distributable Funds may be distributed to the Members in cash or in kind; provided,
however, that no Member may be compelled to accept from the Company a distribution of any asset in kind unless each Member receives
at the same time a distribution of an interest in the property being distributed that is proportionate to such Member’s Percentage
Interest. In the case of all assets to be distributed in kind, the amount of the distribution shall equal the fair market value
of the asset distributed as determined by the Managers. In the case of a distribution of publicly traded property, the fair market
value of such property shall be deemed to be the average closing price for such property for the thirty (30) day period immediately
prior to the distribution, or if such property has not yet been publicly traded for thirty (30) days, the average closing price
of such property for the period prior to the distribution in which the property has been publicly traded.


 


Section
7.            Allocations.


 


7.1           Allocation
of Net Income and Net Losses Other than in Liquidation. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Net Income and Net
Losses of the Company for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that, as of the end of such Fiscal
Year and taking into account all prior allocations of Net Income and Net Losses of the Company and all distributions made by the
Company through such date, the Capital Account of each Member is, as nearly as possible, equal to the distributions that would
be made to such Member pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and assets sold
for cash equal to their tax basis (or book value in the case of assets that have been revalued in accordance with Section 704(b)
of the Code), all Company liabilities were satisfied, and the net assets of the Company were distributed in accordance with Sections 6.1
and 6.2 immediately after such allocation.

7.2          Allocation
of Net Income and Net Losses in Liquidation. Net Income and Net Losses realized by the Company in connection with the liquidation
of the Company pursuant to Section 13 shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that, taking into account all
prior allocations of Net Income and Net Losses of the Company and all distributions made by the Company through such date, the
Capital Account of each Member is, as nearly as possible, equal to the amount which such Member is entitled to receive pursuant
to Section 13.3(d)(iii).


 


7.3          U.S.
Tax Allocations.


 


(a)           Subject
to Section 704(c) of the Code, for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, all items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction
and credit shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as the corresponding item of income, gain, loss, deduction or
credit was allocated pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7.


 


(b)           In
accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, income and loss with respect to any property contributed
to the capital of the Company (including, if the property so contributed constitutes a partnership interest, the applicable distributive
share of each item of income, gain, loss, expense and other items attributable to such partnership interest whether expressly so
allocated or reflected in partnership allocations) shall, solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be allocated among the Members
so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes
and its Agreed Upon Value at the time of contribution. Such allocation shall be made in accordance with such method set forth in
Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) as the Managers in their reasonable discretion approve.


 


Any elections or other
decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Managers in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention
of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 7.3. are solely for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income
taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s share of Net Income, Net Loss,
other items or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

8.             Books, Records, Tax Matters and Bank Accounts.

such Member’s sole cost and expense, during normal business hours on at least twenty-four (24) hours prior notice. In connection
with such review, investigation or audit, such Member (and its representatives and agents) shall have the unfettered right to meet
and consult with any and all employees of Property Manager (or any of their respective Affiliates) and to attend meetings and independently
meet and consult with any and all third parties having dealings or any other relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or with Property Manager in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

information as requested by Bluerock as is necessary for any REIT Member (whether a direct or indirect owner) to determine its
qualification as a REIT and its compliance with REIT Requirements as shall be requested by Bluerock. Further, the Property Manager
shall cooperate in a reasonable manner at the request of any Member to work in good faith with any designated accountants or auditors
of such Member or its Affiliates so that such Member or its Affiliate is able to comply with its public reporting, attestation,
certification and other requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, applicable to such entity, and to work
in good faith with the designated accountants or auditors of the Member or any of its Affiliates in connection therewith, including
for purposes of testing internal controls and procedures of such Member or its Affiliates.

accounting statements under the terms of the Management Agreement (the “Property Manager Reports”). Managers
shall be entitled to rely on the Property Manager Reports with respect to their obligations under this Section 8, and the
Members acknowledge that the reports to be furnished shall be based on the Property Manager Reports, without any duty on the part
of the Managers to further investigate the completeness, accuracy or adequacy of the Property Manager Reports.

by the Company and the Subsidiaries under the Code or state tax law shall be timely determined and made by the Tax Matters Member;

liability, action or damage resulting from its acting or its failure to take any action as the “tax matters partner”
of the Company and the Subsidiaries, provided that any such action or failure to act does not constitute gross negligence
or willful misconduct. The Company shall reimburse and otherwise bear all costs incurred by a Tax Matters Member in connection
with serving in that position, including without limitation, the fees of any accountants and/or lawyers retained by the Tax Matters
Member in connection with any Internal Revenue Service audit of the Company.

extensions). No later than the due date or extended due date, the Managers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Member

Section
9.            Management and Operations.


 


9.1           Management.


 


(a)            The
Company shall be managed by one or more managers (each, a “Manager,” and collectively, the “Managers”.
The Managers may also be referred to collectively as the “Co-Managers,” and individually as a “Co-Manager”).
Bluerock shall have the power and authority to appoint one (1) Manager without any further action or approval by any Member, and
Bluerock hereby appoints Bluerock as its initial Manager. Bell shall have the power and authority to appoint one (1) Manager without
any further action or approval by any Member, and Bell hereby appoints Bell Partners Inc. as its initial Manager. A Member may
only remove and replace a Manager appointed by that Member. Each Manager may appoint one or more of its officers to act on its
behalf.


 


(b)            The
Managers acting jointly, and each of them if acting with the approval of the other, shall have the authority to exercise all of
the powers and privileges granted by the Act, any other law or this Agreement, together with any powers incidental thereto, and
to take any other action not prohibited under the Act or other applicable law, so far as such powers or actions are necessary or
convenient or related to the conduct, promotion or attainment of the business, purposes or activities of the Company.


 


(c)            Intentionally
Omitted


 


(d)            The
signature of any Manager (or other individual to whom the Managers have delegated the appropriate authority) is sufficient to constitute
execution of a document on behalf of the Company, including the Loan Documents and any other promissory notes with respect to indebtedness
for borrowed money and related trust deeds, mortgages and other security instruments. A copy or extract of this Agreement may be
shown to the relevant parties in order to confirm such authority.


 


(e)            The
Managers shall meet once every quarter (unless waived by mutual agreement of the Members) and at such other times as may be necessary
for the conduct of the Company’s business on at least five (5) days prior written notice of the time and place of such meeting
given by any Manager. Notice of regular meetings of the Managers is not required. Managers may waive in writing the requirement
for notice before, at or after a special meeting, and attendance at such a meeting without objection by a Manager shall be deemed
a waiver of such notice requirement. Notice of any special meeting shall also be sent by Bluerock to each of the managers of Bluerock
(the “Bluerock Managers”). The Bluerock Managers shall be invited by Bluerock to attend any quarterly meeting
of the Managers, and be provided the right to substantially participate at such meetings in discussions regarding the affairs of
the Company, including the operation, management and potential refinancing or sale or other transfer of the Property. The Managers
shall consider any matters raised by the Bluerock Managers in good faith, and shall provide, if requested, direct and substantial
access to the Property Manager so that the Bluerock Managers are able, subject to the terms of the Management Agreement,
to substantially and directly participate in decisions regarding the management of the Property. Any meeting of the Managers may
be held by conference telephone call, video conference or through similar communications equipment by means of which all persons
participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation in a telephonic and/or video conference meeting held
pursuant to this Section 9.1(e) shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

(f)            Except
as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no Member will act for, deal on behalf of, or bind the Company in any way,
other than in its capacity as a Manager of the Company, if any.


 


9.2           Annual
Business Plan. No later than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current Fiscal Year (except for the 2012 Annual
Business Plan, a copy of which shall be attached hereto as Exhibit B), Property Manager shall prepare (or cause to be prepared)
and shall deliver to the Managers for approval pursuant to Section 9.1 the proposed capital expenditures plan for the next
Fiscal Year. If Property Manager fails to deliver a proposed capital expenditures plan or if the plan proposed is unacceptable
to the Managers, the Managers shall have the right to prepare a proposed capital expenditures plan (a plan approved by the Managers,
is referred to herein as the “Annual Business Plan”). No material changes or departures from any item in an
Annual Business Plan approved by the Managers shall be made by Property Manager without the prior approval of the Managers.


 


9.3           Implementation
of Plan by Property Manager. Property
Manager shall, subject to the limitations contained herein, the availability of operating revenues and other cash flow and any
other matters outside of the reasonable control of Property Manager, implement and shall not vary or modify the then applicable
Annual Business Plan without the prior written approval of the Managers. Property Manager shall promptly advise and inform the
Managers of any transaction, notice, event or proposal directly relating to the management and operation of the Property, other
assets of the Company or the Company or any Subsidiary which does or is likely to significantly affect, either adversely or favorably,
such Property, other assets of the Company or the Company or such Subsidiary or cause a significant deviation from the Annual Business
Plan. Nothing contained herein shall in any way diminish the obligations or duties of Property Manager hereunder.


 


9.4           Affiliate
Transactions. No agreement shall be entered into by the Company or any Subsidiary with a Member or any Affiliate of a Member
and no decision shall be made in respect of any such agreement (including, without limitation, the enforcement or termination thereof)
unless such agreement or related decision shall have been approved in writing by the Managers. Without limiting the foregoing,
any such agreement shall be on arm’s length terms and conditions, and unless otherwise specified or otherwise provided by
Section 9.6 below, shall be terminable on fifteen (15) days’ notice without penalty and the terms and conditions of such
agreement shall be disclosed to the Managers prior to the execution and delivery thereof. Further, the written approval of Bluerock
shall be required prior to the use of the name “Bluerock” in connection with any matter or transaction. Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, the Management Agreement is deemed to be approved by the Managers.

9.5           Other
Activities.


 


(a)            Right
to Participation in Other Member Ventures. Neither the Company nor any Member (or any Affiliate of any Member) shall have any
right by virtue of this Agreement either to participate in or to share in any other now existing or future ventures, activities
or opportunities of any of the other Members or their Affiliates, or in the income or proceeds derived from such ventures, activities
or opportunities.


 


(b)            Limitation
on Actions of Members; Binding Authority. No Member shall, without the prior written consent of the other Members, take any
action on behalf of, or in the name of, the Company, or enter into any contract, agreement, commitment or obligation binding upon
the Company, or, in its capacity as a Member or Manager of the Company, perform any act in any way relating to the Company or the
Company’s assets, except in a manner and to the extent consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
any provision in this Agreement to the contrary and without the need for any additional consent from any Person, the Company is
hereby authorized to execute, deliver and perform that certain Consent and Agreement of the Company attached to each of the Bell
Pledge Agreement and Bluerock Pledge Agreement.


 


9.6           Management
Agreement.


 


(a)            The
Company shall enter into the Management Agreement for the Property with Property Manager (which Management Agreement shall be updated
and supplemented from time to time) pursuant to which Property Manager will provide the management services described therein to
the Company.


 


(b)            The
Management Agreement shall be terminable in the event of an exercise of rights under Section 15, or by the Company and/or
Bluerock only “for cause,” as defined in the Management Agreement on written notice from the Managers or Bluerock to
Property Manager (for the avoidance of doubt, a termination “for cause” or in the event of an exercise of rights by
either party under Section 15 shall not be a Major Decision). The Managers acknowledge that a third party lender may require
the Management Agreement to be terminable on thirty (30) days notice but neither the Managers or Bluerock shall exercise such right
except (i) for cause; or (ii) as required by such lender. Any delegation of the responsibilities of Property Manager or the subcontracting
for such services will be subject to Bluerock’s prior written consent. Separate agreements may also be entered into with
Bell, Bluerock, their respective Affiliates, or with third parties for certain services to be provided to the Company, including
leasing, construction management, property management, asset management, technology services, etc. Such arrangements shall be at
market rates, and shall be entered into only with the prior written approval of the Managers and Bluerock, consistent with an approved
budget and business plan for each asset. Unless otherwise agreed, all such contracts will be payable on a monthly basis and will
be terminable upon thirty (30) day’s notice for any reason or no reason.


 


(c)            On
the date the Company or its Subsidiary shall acquire the Property (the “Acquisition Date”), Bell Partners Inc.
shall earn and the Company shall pay (or cause its Subsidiary to pay) an Acquisition Commission to Bell Partners Inc. The cost
to the Company of the Acquisition Commission shall be borne equally by Bluerock and Bell, and shall be included in their respective
Capital Contributions. Upon the sale of the Property by the Company, Bell Partners Inc. shall earn and the Company shall pay to
Bell Partners Inc. a real estate commission (the “Disposition Commission”) in an amount equal to the contract
sales price of the Property multiplied by one percent (1.0%).

9.7           Operation
in Accordance with REOC/REIT Requirements.


 


(a)           The
Members acknowledge that Bluerock or one or more of its Affiliates (an “BR Affiliate”) intends to qualify as
a “real estate operating company” or “venture capital operating company” within the meaning of U.S. Department
of Labor Regulation 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101 (a “REOC”), and agree that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall
be operated in a manner that will enable Bluerock and such BR Affiliate to so qualify. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not take, or refrain from taking, any action that Bluerock notifies the Company would result
in Bluerock or a BR Affiliate from failing to qualify as a REOC. The Members acknowledge and agree that Bluerock may assign any
or all of its rights or powers under this Agreement as Manager, to designate committee representatives, to provide consents and
approvals, or any other rights or powers to one or more of its BR Affiliates as it deems appropriate, and the exercise of any such
rights or powers by a BR Affiliate shall have full force and effect under this Agreement without the need for any further consent
or approval. Except as disclosed to Bluerock, Bell (a) shall not fund any Capital Contribution "with the 'plan assets' of
any 'employee benefit plan' within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended or any 'plan' as defined by Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended", and (b) shall comply with
any requirements specified by Bluerock in order to ensure compliance with this Section 9.7.


 


(b)           Except
for the Property, neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries shall hold any investment, incur any indebtedness or otherwise take
any action that would cause any Member of the Company (or any Person holding an indirect interest in the Company through an entity
or series of entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to realize any “unrelated business taxable
income” as such term is defined in Code Sections 511 through 514, unless specifically agreed to by the Managers in writing.
No Manager or Member shall be liable for any income or other taxes, damages, costs or expenses incurred by the Company or any Member
by reason of the recognition by the Company of UBTI, unless caused by its own willful misconduct or gross negligence.


 


(c)           The
Company (and any direct or indirect
Subsidiary of the Company) may not engage in any activities or hold any assets that would constitute or result in the occurrence
of a REIT Prohibited Transaction as defined herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during
the time a REIT Member is a Member of the Company, neither the Company, any direct or indirect
Subsidiary of the Company, nor any Member of the Company shall take or refrain from taking any action which, or the effect
of which, would constitute or result in the occurrence of a REIT Prohibited Transaction by the Company or any direct
or indirect Subsidiary thereof, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but in amplification
thereof:


 


(i)          Entering
into any lease, license, concession or other agreement or permitting any sublease, license, concession or other agreement that
provides for rent or other payment based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person, excluding for this purpose
a lease that provides for rent based in whole or in part on a fixed percentage or percentages of gross receipts or gross sales
of any person without reduction for any costs of the lessee (and in the case of a sublease, without reduction for any sublessor
costs);


 




    	-24-



    	 



    

  


(ii)         Leasing
personal property, excluding for this purpose a lease of personal property that is entered into in connection with a lease of real
property where the rent attributable to the personal property is less than 15% of the total rent provided for under the lease;


 


(iii)        Acquiring
or holding any debt investments, excluding for these purposes “debt” solely between wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the
Company, unless (I) the amount of interest income received or accrued by the Company under such loan does not, directly or indirectly,
depend in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person, and (II) the debt is fully secured by mortgages on real property
or on interests in real property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the case of debt issued to the Company by
a Subsidiary which is treated as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” of the REIT Member, such debt shall be secured by a mortgage
or similar security interest, or by a pledge of the equity ownership of a subsidiary of such taxable REIT subsidiary;


 


(iv)        Acquiring
or holding, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the outstanding securities of any one issuer (by vote or value) other than
an entity which either (i) is taxable as a partnership or a disregarded entity for United States federal income tax purposes, (ii)
has properly elected to be a taxable REIT subsidiary of the REIT Member by jointly filing with REIT, IRS Form 8875, or (iii) has
properly elected to be a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes;


 


(v)         Entering
into any agreement where the Company receives amounts, directly or indirectly, for rendering services to the tenants of any property
that is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company other than (i) amounts received for services that are customarily furnished
or rendered in connection with the rental of real property of a similar class in the geographic areas in which the Property is
located where such services are either provided by (A) an Independent Contractor (as defined in Section 856(d)(3) of the Code)
who is adequately compensated for such services and from which the Company or REIT Member do not, directly or indirectly, derive
revenue or (B) a taxable REIT subsidiary of REIT Member who is adequately compensated for such services or (ii) amounts received
for services that are customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of space for occupancy only (as opposed to
being rendered primarily for the convenience of the Property’s tenants);


 


(vi)        Entering
into any agreement where a material amount of income received or accrued by the Company under such agreement, directly or indirectly,
does not qualify as either (i) “rents from real property” or (ii) “interest on obligations secured by mortgages
on real property or on interests in real property,” in each case as such terms are defined in Section 856(c) of the Code;


 


(vii)       Holding
cash of the Company available for operations or distribution in any manner other than a traditional bank checking or savings account;


 


(viii)      Selling
or disposing of any property, subsidiary or other asset of the Company prior to (i) the
completion of a two (2) year holding
period with such period to begin on the date the Company acquires a direct or indirect interest in such property
and begins to hold such property, subsidiary or asset for the production of rental income, and (ii) the satisfaction of any other
requirements under Section 857 of the Code necessary for the avoidance of a prohibited transaction tax on the REIT;
or


 




    	-25-



    	 



    

  


(ix)         Failing
to make current cash distributions to REIT Member each year in an amount which does not at least equal the taxable income
allocable to REIT Member for such year. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.7(c), the Company may
enter into a REIT Prohibited Transaction if it receives the prior written approval of the REIT Member specifically
acknowledging that the REIT Member is approving a REIT Prohibited Transaction pursuant to this Section 9.7(c). For purposes
of this Section 9.7(c), “REIT Prohibited Transactions” shall mean any of the actions specifically set forth in
Sections 9.7(c)(i) through (c)(ix) as well as any action of which the Company receives notice from BR or a REIT Member that
such action would result in a REIT Member losing its REIT status under IRC Section 856 or would cause such REIT Member to be
subject to any punitive taxation pursuant to IRC Section 857(b)(6). The Loan or any loan contemplated by Section 5.2(b)(ii)
shall not be considered a REIT Prohibited Transaction.


 


9.8           FCPA.


 


(a)           In
compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, each Member will not, and will ensure that its officers, directors, employees,
shareholders, members, agents and Affiliates, acting on its behalf or on the behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
Affiliates do not, for a corrupt purpose, offer, directly or indirectly, promise to pay, pay, promise to give, give or authorize
the paying or giving of anything of value to any official representative or employee of any government agency or instrumentality,
any political party or officer thereof or any candidate for office in any jurisdiction, except for any facilitating or expediting
payments to government officials, political parties or political party officials the purpose of which is to expedite or secure
the performance of a routine governmental action by such government officials or political parties or party officials. The term
“routine governmental action” for purposes of this provision shall mean an action which is ordinarily and commonly
performed by the applicable government official in (i) obtaining permits, licenses, or other such official documents which such
Person is otherwise legally entitled to; (ii) processing governmental papers; (iii) providing police protection, mail pick-up and
delivery or scheduling inspections associated with contract performance or inspections related to transit of goods across country;
(iv) providing phone service, power and water supply, loading and unloading of cargo, or protecting perishable products or commodities
from deterioration; or (v) actions of a similar nature.


 


The term routine governmental
action does not include any decision by a government official whether, or on what terms, to award new business to or to continue
business with a particular party, or any action taken by an official involved in the decision making process to encourage a decision
to award new business to or continue business with a particular party.


 


(b)           Each
Member agrees to notify immediately the other Member of any request that such Member or any of its officers, directors, employees,
shareholders, members, agents or Affiliates, acting on its behalf, receives to take any action that may constitute a violation
of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

a Member are hereinafter referred to as “Confidential Information”. All Confidential Information in tangible form (plans,
writings, drawings, computer software and programs, etc.) or provided to or conveyed orally or visually to a receiving Member,
shall be presumed to be Confidential Information at the time of delivery to the receiving Member. All such Confidential Information
shall be protected by the receiving Member from disclosure with the same degree of care with which the receiving Member protects
its own Confidential Information from disclosure. Each Member agrees: (i) not to disclose such Confidential Information to any
Person except to those of its employees or representatives who need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the
conduct of the business of the Company and who have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information and
(ii) neither it nor any of its employees or representatives will use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than in
connection with the conduct of the business of the Company; provided that such restrictions shall not apply if such Confidential
Information:


 


(a)            is
or hereafter becomes public, other than by breach of this Agreement;


 


(b)           was
already in the receiving Member’s possession prior to any disclosure of the Confidential Information to the receiving Member
by the divulging Member; or


 


(c)            has
been or is hereafter obtained by the receiving Member from a third party not bound by any confidentiality obligation with respect
to the Confidential Information; provided, further, that nothing herein shall prevent any Member from disclosing
any portion of such Confidential Information (1) to the Company and allowing the Company to use such Confidential Information
in connection with the Company’s business, (2) pursuant to judicial order or in response to a governmental inquiry, by subpoena
or other legal process, but only to the extent required by such order, inquiry, subpoena or process, and only after reasonable
notice to the original divulging Member, (3) as necessary or appropriate in connection with or to prevent the audit by a governmental
agency of the accounts of Bell or Bluerock, (4) in order to initiate, defend or otherwise pursue legal proceedings between the
parties regarding this Agreement, (5) necessary in connection with a Transfer of an Interest permitted hereunder or (6) to a Member’s
respective attorneys or accountants or other representative.


 


10.2         The
Members and their Affiliates shall each act to safeguard the secrecy and confidentiality of, and any proprietary rights to, any
non-public information relating to the Company and its business, except to the extent such information is required to be disclosed
by law or reasonably necessary to be disclosed in order to carry out the business of the Company. Each Member may, from time to
time, provide the other Members written notice of its non-public information which is subject to this Section 10.2.

10.3         Without
limiting any of the other terms and provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.5), to the extent
a Member (the “Pursuer”) provides the other Member with information relating to a possible investment opportunity
then being actively pursued by the Pursuer on behalf of the Company, the other Member receiving such information shall not use
such information to pursue such investment opportunity for its own account to the exclusion of the Pursuer so long as the Pursuer
is actively pursuing such opportunity on behalf of the Company and shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person
(except as expressly permitted hereunder) or take any other action in connection therewith that is reasonably likely to cause damage
to the Pursuer.

domestic or foreign, or any arbitrator which could, if adversely determined (or, in the case of an investigation could lead to
any action, suit or proceeding which if adversely determined could) reasonably be expected to materially impair such Member’s

of such Member; such Member or any of its Affiliates has not received any currently effective notice of any default, and such Member
or any of its Affiliates is not in default, under any applicable order, writ, injunction, decree, permit, determination or award

under this Agreement or to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of such Member.


 


(e)            Investigation.
Such Member is acquiring its Interest based upon its own investigation, and the exercise by such Member of its rights and the performance
of its obligations under this Agreement will be based upon its own investigation, analysis and expertise. Such Member is a sophisticated
investor possessing an expertise in analyzing the benefits and risks associated with acquiring investments that are similar to
the acquisition of its Interest.


 


(f)            Broker.
No broker, agent or other person acting as such on behalf of such Member was instrumental in consummating this transaction and
no conversations or prior negotiations were had by such party with any broker, agent or other such person concerning the transaction

(h)           Securities
Matters.


 


(i)          None
of the Interests are registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Such Member understands that the offering,
issuance and sale of the Interests are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, based, in part, upon the
representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement. Such Member is an “accredited investor” as
such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.


 


(ii)         Neither
the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved the Interests or passed upon or endorsed
the merits of the offer or sale of the Interests. Such Member is acquiring the Interests solely for such Member’s own account
for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act.


 


(iii)        Such
Member is unaware of, and is in no way relying on, any form of general solicitation or general advertising in connection with the
offer and sale of the Interests, and no Member has taken any action which could give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage
commissions, finders’ fees (without regard to any finders’ fees payable by the Company directly) or the like relating
to the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


(iv)        Such
Member is not relying on the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees, advisors or representatives with regard to the
tax and other economic considerations of an investment in the Interests, and such Member has relied on the advice of only such
Member’s advisors.


 


(v)         Such
Member understands that the Interests may not be sold, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless subsequently registered under
the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from registration is available. Such Member agrees that
it will not attempt to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Interests in violation
of this Agreement.


 


(vi)        Such
Member has adequate means for providing for its current financial needs and anticipated future needs and possible contingencies
and emergencies and has no need for liquidity in the investment in the Interests.


 


(vii)       Such
Member has significant prior investment experience, including investment in non-listed and non-registered securities. Such Member
is knowledgeable about investment considerations and has a sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of such Member’s entire
investment in the Company in the event such a loss should occur. Such Member’s overall commitment to investments which are
not readily marketable is not excessive in view of such Member’s net worth and financial circumstances and the purchase of
the Interests will not cause such commitment to become excessive. The investment in the Interests is suitable for such Member.

(viii)      Such
Member represents to the Company that the information contained in this subparagraph (h) and in all other writings, if any, furnished
to the Company with regard to such Member (to the extent such writings relate to its exemption from registration under the Securities
Act) is complete and accurate and may be relied upon by the Company in determining the availability of an exemption from registration
under federal and state securities laws in connection with the sale of the Interests.


 


Section
12.          Sale, Assignment, Transfer or other Disposition.


 


12.1         Prohibited
Transfers. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 12, Section 5.2(b), Section 14.5 or Section
14.6, as approved by the Managers, no Member shall Transfer all or any part of its Interest, whether legal or beneficial, in
the Company, and any attempt to so Transfer such Interest (and such Transfer) shall be null and void and of no effect. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, either Member shall have the right, with the consent of the other Member, at any time to pledge to a lender or creditor,
directly or indirectly, all or any part of its Interest in the Company for such purposes as it deems necessary in the ordinary
cause of its business and operations. Further, no Transfer shall be permitted and shall be void ab initio if it shall violate
any “Transfer” provision of any applicable Collateral Agreement with third party lenders.


 


12.2         Affiliate
Transfers.


 


(a)           Subject
to the provisions of Section 12.2(b) hereof, and subject in each case to the prior written approval of each Member (such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld), any Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Interest in the Company at any time to an Affiliate
of such Member, provided that such Affiliate shall remain an Affiliate of such Member at all times that such Affiliate holds such
Interest. If such Affiliate shall thereafter cease being an Affiliate of such Member while such Affiliate holds such Interest,
such cessation shall be a non-permitted Transfer and shall be deemed void ab initio, whereupon the Member having made the
Transfer shall, at its own and sole expense, cause such putative transferee to disgorge all economic benefits and otherwise indemnify
the Company and the other Member(s) against loss or damage under any Collateral Agreement. Further, no Transfer shall be permitted
and shall be void ab initio if it shall violate any “Transfer” provision of any applicable Collateral Agreement
with third party lenders.


 


(b)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the following Transfers shall not require the approval set forth in Section
12.2(a):


 


(i)          Any
Transfer by Bell or a Bell Transferee of up to one hundred percent (100%) of its Interest to any Affiliate of Bell (a “Bell
Transferee”); and


 


(ii)         Any
Transfer by Bluerock or a Bluerock Transferee of up to one hundred percent (100%) of its Interest to any Affiliate of Bluerock,
including but not limited to (A) Bluerock Enhanced Multifamily Trust, Inc. (“BR REIT”) or any Person that is
directly or indirectly owned by BR REIT; (B) Bluerock Special Opportunity + Income Fund, LLC (“BR SOIF”), or
any Person that is directly or indirectly owned by BR SOIF; (C) Bluerock Special Opportunity + Income Fund II, LLC (“BR
SOIF II”) or any Person that is directly or indirectly owned by BR SOIF II and/or (D) Bluerock Special Opportunity +
Income Fund III, LLC (“BR SOIF III”) (collectively, a “Bluerock Transferee”); provided however, as to subparagraphs (b)(i)
and (b)(ii), and as to subparagraph (a), no Transfer shall be permitted and shall be void ab initio if it shall violate
any “Transfer” provision of any applicable Collateral Agreement with third party lenders.


 




    	-31-



    	 



    




 


(c)           Upon
the execution by any such Bell Transferee or Bluerock Transferee of such documents necessary to admit such party into the Company
and to cause the Bell Transferee or Bluerock Transferee (as applicable) to become bound by this Agreement, the Bell Transferee
or Bluerock Transferee (as applicable) shall become a Member, without any further action or authorization by any Member.


 


(d)          The
Transfer of any interest in any Manager and any transferee of an interest in any Manager shall be recognized and permitted under
this Agreement and by the Members, without any further action or authorization by any Member; provided, however, that no Transfer
shall be permitted and shall be void ab initio if it shall violate any “Transfer” provision of any applicable
Collateral Agreement with third party lenders.


 


12.3         Admission
of Transferee; Partial Transfers. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12 to the contrary and except as provided
in Section 5.2(b), Section 14.5 and Section 14.6, no Transfer of Interests in the Company shall be permitted
unless the potential transferee is admitted as a Member under this Section 12.3:


 


(a)           If
a Member Transfers all or any portion of its Interest in the Company, such transferee may become a Member if (i) such transferee
executes and agrees to be bound by this Agreement, (ii) the transferor and/or transferee pays all reasonable legal and other fees
and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such assignment and substitution and (iii) the transferor and transferee
execute such documents and deliver such certificates to the Company and the remaining Members as may be required by applicable
law or otherwise advisable; and


 


(b)         Notwithstanding
12.3(a) above, any Transfer or purported Transfer of any Interest, whether to another Member or to a third party, shall be of no
effect and void ab initio, and such transferee shall not become a Member or an owner of the purportedly transferred Interest,
if the Managers determine in their sole discretion that:


 


(i)          the
Transfer would require registration of any Interest under, or result in a violation of, any federal or state securities laws;


 


(ii)         the
Transfer would result in a termination of the Company under Code Section 708(b) (except for Transfers specifically approved
by the Managers or Affiliate Transfers pursuant to 12.2);


 


(iii)        as
a result of such Transfer the Company would be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder;


 




    	-32-



    	 



    

  


(iv)        if
as a result of such Transfer the aggregate value of Interests held by “benefit plan investors” including at least one
benefit plan investor that is subject to ERISA, could be “significant” (as such terms are defined in U.S. Department
of Labor Regulation 29 C.F.R. 2510.3-101(f)(2)) with the result that the assets of the Company could be deemed to be “plan
assets” for purposes of ERISA;


 


(v)         as
a result of such Transfer, the Company would or may have in the aggregate more than one hundred (100) members and material adverse
federal income tax consequences would result to a Member. For purposes of determining the number of members under this Section
12.3(b)(v), a Beneficial Owner indirectly owning an interest in the Company through a Flow-Through Entity shall be considered
a member, but only if (i) substantially all of the value of the Beneficial Owner’s interest in the Flow-Through Entity is
attributable to the Flow-Through Entity’s interest (direct or indirect) in the Company and (ii) in the sole discretion of
the Managers, a principal purpose of the use of the Flow-Through Entity is to permit the Company to satisfy the 100-member limitation;
or


 


(vi)        the
transferor failed to comply with the provisions of Sections 12.2(a) or (b). The Managers may require the provision of a
certificate as to the legal nature and composition of a proposed transferee of an Interest of a Member and from any Member as
to its legal nature and composition and shall be entitled to rely on any such certificate in making such determinations under
this Section 12.3.


 


12.4         Withdrawals.
Each of the Members does hereby covenant and agree that it will not withdraw, resign, retire or disassociate from the Company,
except as a result of a Transfer of its entire Interest in the Company permitted under the terms of this Agreement and that it
will carry out its duties and responsibilities hereunder until the Company is terminated, liquidated and dissolved under Section
13. No Member shall be entitled to receive any distribution or otherwise receive the fair market value of its Interest in compensation
for any purported resignation or withdrawal not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


Section
13          Dissolution.


 


13.1         Limitations.
The Company may be dissolved, liquidated and terminated only pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13, and, to the
fullest extent permitted by law but subject to the terms of this Agreement, the parties hereto do hereby irrevocably waive any
and all other rights they may have to cause a dissolution of the Company or a sale or partition of any or all of the Company’s
assets.


 


13.2         Exclusive
Events Requiring Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved only upon the earliest to occur of the following events (a “Dissolution
Event”):


 


(a)            the
expiration of the specific term set forth in Section 2.5;


 


(b)            in
the event the conditions set forth in Section 4 are not fulfilled;


 




    	-33-



    	 



    

  


(c)           at
any time at the election of the Managers in writing;


 


(d)           at
any time there are no Members (unless otherwise continued in accordance with the Act); or


 


(e)           the
entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act.


 


13.3         Liquidation.
Upon the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the business of the Company shall be continued to the extent necessary to allow an
orderly winding up of its affairs, including the liquidation of the assets of the Company pursuant to the provisions of this Section
13.3, as promptly as practicable thereafter, and each of the following shall be accomplished:


 


(a)            The
Managers shall cause to be prepared a statement setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Company as of the date of dissolution,
a copy of which statement shall be furnished to all of the Members.


 


(b)           The
property and assets of the Company shall be liquidated or distributed in kind under the supervision of the Managers as promptly
as possible, but in an orderly, businesslike and commercially reasonable manner.


 


(c)           Any
gain or loss realized by the Company upon the sale of its property shall be deemed recognized and allocated to the Members in the
manner set forth in Section 7.2. To the extent that an asset is to be distributed in kind, such asset shall be deemed to
have been sold at its fair market value on the date of distribution, the gain or loss deemed realized upon such deemed sale shall
be allocated in accordance with Section 7.2 and the amount of the distribution shall be considered to be such fair market
value of the asset. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless all of the Members otherwise agree, no Member may be compelled to
accept from the Company a distribution of any asset in kind unless each Member receives at the same time a distribution of any
interest in the property distributed that is proportionate to such Member’s Percentage Interest.


 


(d)          The
proceeds of sale and all other assets of the Company shall be applied and distributed as follows and in the following order of
priority:


 


(i)          to
the satisfaction of the debts and liabilities of the Company (contingent or otherwise) and the expenses of liquidation or distribution
(whether by payment or reasonable provision for payment), other than liabilities to Members or former Members for distributions;


 


(ii)         to
the satisfaction of loans made pursuant to Section 5.2(b) in proportion to the outstanding balances of such loans at the
time of payment;


 


(iii)        the
balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with Sections 6.2.

13.4         Continuation
of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy,
dissolution or removal of a Member shall not in and of itself cause the dissolution of the Company, and the Members are expressly
authorized to continue the business of the Company in such event, without any further action on the part of the Members.


 


Section
14.          Indemnification.


 


14.1         Exculpation
of Members, Managers and Their Representatives. No Member or Manager shall be liable to the Company or to the other Members
for damages or otherwise with respect to any actions or failures to act taken or not taken relating to the Company, except to the
extent any related loss results from fraud, gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct on the part of such Member or Manager.
For purposes of this Section 14, officers, directors, employees, agents, appointees and other representatives of the Member
or of the Manager, or of their respective Affiliates, who are functioning on behalf of such Member or Manager in connection with
this Agreement (collectively, “Representatives”) shall receive the same benefits of exculpation from liability
and of indemnification, as provided to Members and Managers as set forth herein.

an “Indemnitee”) from and against any loss, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by them (including
but not limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs or expenses incurred in connection
with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim) by reason of or arising out of (a)(i) their activities
on behalf of the Company or in furtherance of the interests of the Company, including, without limitation, the provision of guaranties
to third party lenders in respect of financings relating to the Company or any of its assets (but specifically excluding from such
indemnity by the Company any liability under Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranties triggered as a result of such Indemnitee’s
breach thereof), (ii) their status as Members, Managers or Representatives of the Company, or (iii) the Company’s assets,
property, business or affairs (including, without limitation, the actions of any officer, director, member or employee of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries), if (b) the Indemnitee’s acts or omissions were not performed or omitted fraudulently or as a
result of gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct. Reasonable expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any
such proceeding relating to the foregoing matters shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company in advance of the final disposition
of such proceeding upon receipt by the Company of (x) written affirmation by the Person requesting indemnification of its good
faith belief that it has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company and (y) a written undertaking
by or on behalf of such Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
such Person has not met such standard of conduct, which undertaking shall be an unlimited general obligation of the indemnified
party but need not be secured.

to have acquired from Bell such portion of the Indemnity Collateral as shall be equal in value to the amount of the judgment; provided,

the Interests and Percentage Interests of the Members.

rights provided in this Section 14.5 shall not be available to any Member and shall be unenforceable to the extent that
the exercise of rights and attendant Transfer of Interest violate any applicable Collateral Agreement, and any such Transfer, if
made, shall be void ab initio.

(c)           In
the event an Indemnified Party obtains a judgment on account of an Inducement Obligation, then Bell shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, be deemed, without payment of further consideration or the taking of further action by Bluerock or any of its

(a)           Availability
of Rights. At any time that the Managers are unable to agree on a Major Decision and such failure to agree has continued for
fifteen (15) days after written notice from one Member to the other Member indicating an intention to exercise rights under this
Section 15.1, either Member has the right to initiate the provisions of this Section 15.1. Further, at any time that
the Managers are unable to agree on a decision to terminate the Management Agreement pursuant to its terms, and such failure to
agree has continued for fifteen (15) days after written notice from Bluerock to Bell, Bluerock, and only Bluerock, has the right
to initiate the provisions of this Section 15.1. The rights provided in this Section 15.1 shall not be available
to any Member and shall be unenforceable to the extent that the exercise of rights and attendant Transfer of Interest violate any
applicable Collateral Agreement, and any such Transfer, if made, shall be void ab initio.


 


(b)           Exercise.
The Member wishing to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 15.1 (the “Offeror”) shall do so by
giving notice to the other Member (the “Offeree”) setting forth a statement of intent to invoke its rights under
this Section 15.1, stating therein the aggregate dollar amount (the “Valuation Amount”) that the Offeror
would be willing to pay for the assets of the Company as of the Closing Date (as defined below) free and clear of all liabilities,
and setting forth all oral or written offers and inquiries received by the Offeror during the previous twelve-month period relating
to the financing, disposition or leasing of any Company property (including proposals for the formation of a new entity for the
ownership and operation of the Property).


 


(c)           Offeree
Response. After receipt of such notice, the Offeree shall elect to either (i) sell its entire Interest to the Offeror for an
amount equal to the amount the Offeree would have been entitled to receive if the Company had sold its assets for the Valuation
Amount on the Closing Date and the Company had immediately paid all Company liabilities and Imputed Closing Costs and distributed
the net proceeds of sale to the Members in satisfaction of their Interests pursuant to Section 13.3, or (ii) purchase the
entire Interest of the Offeror for an amount equal to the amount the Offeror would have been entitled to receive if the Company
had sold all of its assets for the Valuation Amount on the Closing Date and the Company had immediately paid all Company liabilities
and Imputed Closing Costs and distributed the net proceeds of the sale to the Members in satisfaction of their Interests pursuant
to Section 13.3. The Offeree shall have thirty (30) days from the giving of the Offeror’s notice in which to exercise
either of its options by giving written notice to the Offeror. If the Offeree does not elect to acquire the Offeror’s Interest
within such time period, the Offeree shall be deemed to have elected to sell its Interest to the Offeror as provided in subsection
(i) above.


 




    	-38-



    	 



    

  


(d)           Earnest
Money. Within five (5) business days after an election has been made or deemed made under Section 15.1(c), the acquiring
Member shall deposit with a mutually acceptable third-party escrow agent a non-refundable earnest money deposit in the amount
of five percent (5%) of the amount the selling Member is entitled to receive for its Interest under this Section 15.1,
which amount shall be applied to the purchase price at closing. If the acquiring Member should thereafter fail to consummate the
transaction for any reason other than a default by the selling Member or a refusal by any lender
of the Company who has a right under its loan documents to consent to such transfer to so consent, (i) (A) the earnest
money deposit shall be distributed from escrow to the selling Member, free of all claims of the acquiring Member, as liquidated
damages and constituting the sole and exclusive remedy available to the selling Member because of a default by the acquiring Member
or (B) the selling Member may, by delivering to the acquiring Member written notice thereof, elect to buy the acquiring Member’s
entire Interest for an amount equal to the amount the acquiring Member would have been entitled to receive if the Company had
sold all of its assets for the Valuation Amount and the Company had immediately paid all Company liabilities and Imputed Closing
Costs and distributed the net proceeds of the sale to the Members in satisfaction of their Interests pursuant to Section 13.3,
in which case, the Closing Date therefor shall be the date specified in the selling Member’s notice, and (ii) if the acquiring
Member was the Offeror, the non-refundable earnest money deposit for any future election by the acquiring Member to buy the selling
Member’s Interest shall be twenty percent (20%) of the amount the selling Member is entitled to receive for its Interest
in connection with such future election.


 


(e)           Closing.
The closing of an acquisition pursuant to this Section 15.1 shall be held at the principal place of business of the Company
on a mutually acceptable date (the “Closing Date”) not later than sixty (60) days (or, if the Offeree is the
acquiring Member, ninety (90) days) after an election has been made or deemed made under Section 15.1(c). As a precondition
to the closing, (A) the acquiring Member shall work in good faith with the selling Member to remove completely the selling Member
or any Affiliate of the selling Member that is a party to any Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty (a “Selling Member Carveout
Guarantor”) from that Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty contemporaneously with the closing, including by means of substituting
a replacement for the Selling Member Carveout Guarantor and (B) to the extent that the acquiring Member and selling Member are
not able to remove the Selling Member Carveout Guarantor completely from the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty contemporaneously with
the closing, the acquiring Member or an affiliate of the acquiring Member (in either case whose financial strength and creditworthiness
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Selling Member Carveout Guarantor) shall provide an indemnity to the Selling Member Carveout
Guarantor commensurate with the Selling Member Carveout Guarantor’s remaining exposure under the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty
for liabilities and losses that are the result of the acts or omissions of the acquiring Member or any Affiliates of the Acquiring
Member; provided, however, that in any event, the Selling Member Carveout Guarantor shall remain liable for any liabilities or
losses arising under the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty for acts or omissions prior to the closing other than those liabilities
or losses caused by the acts or omissions of the acquiring Member or its Affiliates (“Prior Acts”), and if the
Selling Member Carveout Guarantor is removed from the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty with respect to Prior Acts, then the Selling
Member Carveout Guarantor shall execute a backstop indemnity agreement acceptable to the acquiring Member and any Affiliate of
the acquiring Member that is a party to the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty (the “Acquiring Indemnitees”) indemnifying
each of the Acquiring Indemnitees from liabilities and losses arising from Prior Acts.


 




    	-39-



    	 



    

  


At such closing,
the following shall occur:


 


(i)          The
selling Member shall assign to the acquiring Member or its designee the selling Member’s Interest in accordance with the
instructions of the acquiring Member, and shall execute and deliver to the acquiring Member all documents which may be required
to give effect to the disposition and acquisition of such interests, in each case free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances,
with covenants of general warranty; and


 


(ii)         The
acquiring Member shall pay to the selling Member the consideration therefor in cash.


 


(f)            Enforcement.
It is expressly agreed that the remedy at law for breach of the obligations of the Members set forth in this Section 15.1
is inadequate in view of (i) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damage to be sustained by reason of the
failure of a Member to comply fully with such obligations, and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company’s business and the Members’
relationships. Accordingly and except as provided in Section 15.1(a), each of such obligations shall be, and is hereby expressly
made, enforceable by an order of specific performance.


 


15.2         Forced
Sale Rights.


 


(a)           Offers.
If, at any time following the third anniversary of the date that the Property is acquired by the Company, (i) either Member desires
to offer the Property for sale on specified terms, or (ii) receives from an unaffiliated purchaser a bona fide written
cash offer (i.e., not seller financed) for the purchase of such Property on terms that such Member desires for the Company, or
the Subsidiaries that own such Property (individually or collectively, the “Ownership Entity”) to accept (such
specified terms or bona fide offer being herein called the “Offer”), then the Member desiring
to make or accept the Offer (the “Initiating Member”) shall provide written notice of the terms of such Offer
(the “Sale Notice”) to the other Member (the “Non-Initiating Member”). Any offer must be
in an amount at least equal to the amount of any indebtedness secured by such Property plus the aggregate unreturned investment
amount of such Member.


 


(b)           Response.
The Non-Initiating Member shall have thirty (30) days from the date of the Sale Notice (the “Response Period”)
to provide written notice to the Initiating Member of whether the Ownership Entity should make or accept the Offer; the failure
to timely deliver such notice shall be deemed to constitute an election to accept the Offer and sell such Property on the terms
of the Offer.


 




    	-40-



    	 



    

  


(c)           Offer
Unacceptable. If the Non-Initiating Member does not wish for the Company, or the Ownership Entity, to make or accept the Offer,
the Initiating Member may elect to sell its Interest to the Non-Initiating Member, in which case the Non-Initiating Member must
purchase the Initiating Member’s Interest for an amount equal to the amount that would be distributable to the Initiating
Member if the Company had accepted the Offer, closed the sale pursuant to such Offer and wound up its affairs pursuant to Section
13.


 


For purposes of the
foregoing calculations, the purchase price for a sale shall be reduced by Imputed Closing Costs therefor. The Initiating Member
must exercise this option, if at all, by delivering written notice thereof to the Non-Initiating Member within twenty (20) days
after the end of the Response Period. The Non-Initiating Member shall pay the Company cash for each Ownership Entity or the Initiating
Member cash for its Interest, as the case may be. Closing shall take place on or before the date specified in the Sale Notice,
but if the Non-Initiating Member is purchasing the Initiating Member’s Interest or one or more Ownership Entities, the Non-Initiating
Member shall have until 120 days after the Sale Notice in which to close. If the Initiating Member or the Non-Initiating Member
defaults at closing, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to bring suit for damages, for specific performance, or exercise
any other remedy available at law or in equity. Upon payment at closing, the Initiating Member shall execute and deliver all documents
reasonably required to transfer the interest being sold. As a precondition to the closing, (A) the Non-Initiating Member shall
work in good faith with the Initiating Member to remove completely the Initiating Member and any Affiliate of the Initiating Member
that is a party to any Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty (an “Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor”) from that
Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty contemporaneously with the closing, including by means of substituting a replacement for the Initiating
Member Carveout Guarantor and (B) to the extent that the Non-Initiating Member and Initiating Member are not able to remove the
Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor completely from the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty contemporaneously with the closing, the
Non-Initiating Member or an Affiliate of the Non-Initiating Member (in either case whose financial strength and creditworthiness
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor) shall provide an indemnity to the Initiating Member
Carveout Guarantor commensurate with the Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor’s remaining exposure under the Non-Recourse
Carveout Guaranty for liabilities and losses that are the result of the acts or omissions of the Non-Initiating Member or any Affiliates
of the Non-Initiating Member; provided, however, that in any event, the Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor shall remain liable
for any liabilities or losses arising under the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty for acts or omissions prior to the closing other
than those liabilities or losses caused by the acts or omissions of the non-Initiating Member or its Affiliates (“Prior
Acts”), and if the Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor is removed from the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty with respect
to Prior Acts, then the Initiating Member Carveout Guarantor shall execute a backstop indemnity agreement acceptable to the Non-Initiating
Member and any Affiliate of the Non-Initiating Member that is a party to the Non-Recourse Carveout Guaranty (the “Non-Initiating
Indemnitees”) indemnifying each of the Non-Initiating Indemnitees from liabilities and losses arising from Prior Acts.


 




    	-41-



    	 



    

  


(d)           Offer
Acceptable. If the Non-Initiating Member consents (or is deemed to have consented) to the Company or the Ownership Entities
selling the Property on the terms of the Offer, then the Initiating Member shall be allowed to sell such Property for cash on the
terms of the Offer for a period of up to one hundred eighty (180) days following the expiration of the Response Period. If the
Initiating Member obtains a bona fide third party contract to sell any such Property on the terms of the offer within
such one hundred eighty (180) day period, the Initiating Member shall have an additional period of ninety (90) days after the date
of such contract (that is, not to exceed 270 days after the expiration of the Response Period) in which to consummate the sale.
If after having received the consent (or deemed consent) of the Non-Initiating Member to the sale of such Property on the terms
of the Offer, the Initiating Member is unable to obtain a bona fide contract within such one hundred eighty (180)
day period, or if after having obtained such bona fide contract, the Initiating Member is unable to consummate such
sale within 270 days after the expiration of the Response Period, then the Initiating Member must again submit an Offer to the
Non-Initiating Member under the terms of this Section 15.2 before it may sell such Property.


 


(e)            The
rights provided in this Section 15.2 shall not be available to any Member and shall be unenforceable to the extent that
the exercise of rights and attendant Transfer of Interest or sale of the Property violate any applicable Collateral Agreement with
third party lenders, and any such Transfer or sale, if made, shall be void ab initio.


 


15.3         Buy
Sell in the event of a Pre-Closing Default. In the event of either a Bell Pre-Closing Default or a Bluerock Pre-Closing Default
then the non-defaulting party may elect to acquire the entire Membership Interest of the defaulting party (including its rights
with respect to any initial Capital Contribution made by such defaulting party) for the sum of One Dollar ($1) in lieu of any other
remedy for such default, including the rights set forth under Section 5.1 (a) hereof. Such election must be made in writing and
delivered to the defaulting party within ten (10) business days after the non-defaulting party learns of the Pre-Closing Default.
The Closing of an acquisition pursuant to this Section 15.3 shall be held in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.1(e).


 


Section
16.          Mediation of Disputes.


 


16.1         Events
Giving Rise To Mediation. In the event that there is a dispute between the Managers as to any action or issue, then and in
such event all of the Managers agree, upon the written request of any one Manager, to submit to mediation within ten (10) days
of receipt of the request for mediation for the purpose of resolving the dispute.


 




    	-42-



    	 



    

  


16.2         Selection
of Mediator. Within ten (10) days of the date upon which the written request is sent pursuant to Section 16.1, the Managers
shall meet for the purpose of selecting one (1) natural person to act as mediator for the Company for such dispute. In the event
that the Managers are unable to agree upon the selection of the mediator at such meeting, then within ten (10) days following such
meeting, the Manager requesting such mediation shall select one (1) qualified mediator and the remaining Manager shall select one
(1) qualified mediator and, within five (5) days of the date of their selection, the two persons so selected shall select a third
qualified mediator who will serve as the sole mediator for the dispute. In the event that the Manager requesting such mediation
selects one such natural person within such ten (10) day period, but the remaining Manager fails to select one such natural person
within such ten (10) day period, or vice versa, then the natural person selected shall serve as the sole mediator for the dispute.
No natural person selected by the Managers and/or by the mediators may be employed by, doing substantial business with or otherwise
affiliated with any of the Managers (including, but not limited to, acting as an attorney or accountant for any one or more of
the Managers or for the Company). The term “qualified mediator” as used herein shall mean a natural person experienced
in mediating disputes between businesses similar to the business in which the Company is engaged.


 


16.3         Mediation.
Not later than fifteen (15) days following the selection of the sole mediator, the mediation shall be convened by the mediator
at a mutually agreeable site. Such mediation shall take place in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association
as in effect on the date of commencement of the mediation. The mediator’s only authority hereunder shall be to assist the
Managers in mediating a dispute. The mediator’s fees shall be paid by the Company. If the mediation is unsuccessful, then
the Managers shall have such rights and remedies as may be provided at law or in equity. Nothing in this Section 16 shall
require the parties to submit to arbitration.

17.6         Severability.

17.13        Remedies
Cumulative. The rights and remedies given in this Agreement and by law to a Member shall be deemed cumulative, and the exercise
of one of such remedies shall not operate to bar the exercise of any other rights and remedies reserved to a Member under the provisions

be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in connection therewith.


 


17.14        No
Waiver. One or more waivers of the breach of any provision of this Agreement by any Member shall not be construed as a waiver
of a subsequent breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any delay or omission by a Member to seek a remedy for any
breach of this Agreement or to exercise the rights accruing to a Member by reason of such breach be deemed a waiver by a Member
of its remedies and rights with respect to such breach.


 


17.15        Limitation
On Use of Names. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or otherwise to the contrary, each of Bluerock and Bell
as to itself agree that neither it nor any of its Affiliates, agents, or representatives is granted a license to use or shall use

but only as and to the extent unanimously approved by the Members. Any change in the Name of the Property must be approved by Managers.


 


17.16        Publicly
Traded Partnership Provision. Each Member hereby severally covenants and agrees with the other Members for the benefit of such
Members, that (i) it is not currently making a market in Interests in the Company and will not in the future make such a market

or the substantial equivalent thereof within the meaning of Code Section 7704 and the Regulations, rulings and other pronouncements
of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or the Department of the Treasury thereunder. Each Member further agrees that it will not
assign any Interest in the Company to any assignee unless such assignee agrees to be bound by this Section and to assign
such Interest only to such Persons who agree to be similarly bound.

press release or making such public disclosure.


 


17.19       No
Construction Against Drafter. This Agreement has been negotiated and prepared by Bluerock and Bell and their respective attorneys
and, should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, the court interpreting or construing such provision
shall not apply the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against one party.

to include the Project in signage advertising rentals available to be placed at the Project during any lease-up period. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Project name contains the trade names and/or trademarks “Bell Partners”

(a) Attached hereto as Exhibit
A is the Budget approved by the Owner for the stated portion of the current Fiscal Year. For subsequent Fiscal Years, Manager
shall submit the Budget for the ensuing Fiscal Year for Owner's approval no later than ninety (90) days prior to the beginning
of each successive Fiscal Year. The Budget shall be reasonably approved by Owner prior to December 31. In the event Owner disapproves
the Budget, in whole or in part, Owner will provide edits for the Manager to make as may be reasonably practicable. Until
a complete new Budget is approved, Manager shall operate on the Budget or part thereof which is approved and the disapproved items
shall be governed by the like item approved for the prior Fiscal Year, with the exception of expenses for personnel which may be
reasonably increased based on existing competitive conditions unless the increase for personnel is the item that is being disputed,
in which case expenses for personnel will not be increased. The Budget shall reflect the schedule of monthly rents proposed for
the new Fiscal Year. It shall also constitute a major control under which Manager shall operate the Project, and Manager shall
make all reasonable efforts to ensure there are no substantial variances therefrom except for any variations which are in compliance
with this Section and Section 2.07(a). Consequently, no expenses may be incurred or commitments made by Manager in connection with
the maintenance and operation of the Project which exceed the amounts allocated to any particular operating expense category (i.e.

by more than the lesser of (x) $5,000 or (y) ten percent (10%); provided, however, that the foregoing limitation with
respect to incurring any expense not covered by the Budget shall not apply to expenses relating to taxes, insurance or utilities.

the Project, such being intended as estimates only. Manager will use its commercially reasonable efforts to develop the Budget
and manage the Project in accordance with the Budget.


 


(b) In the event there shall
be a substantial variance of greater than 10% between the actual results of operations for any month and the estimated results
of operations for such month as set forth in the Budget, Manager shall furnish to Owner, within fifteen (15) days after the expiration
of such month, a written explanation as to reasons for such variance. If substantial variances have occurred or are anticipated
by Manager during the remainder of any Fiscal Year, Manager shall prepare and submit to Owner a revised Budget covering the remainder
of the Fiscal Year with an explanation for the revision which revised Budget shall be subject to Owner’s approval, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

will be required to cover all actions of Manager such that the Owner's insurer agrees to provide Owner and Manager a defense

this Section 6.03 is in addition to any other indemnification obligations of Owner contained in this Agreement, and is not limited

Insurance with respect to all Claims hereunder.


 


6.04 INDEMNIFICATION
BY MANAGER


Manager shall indemnify Owner
from and against all Claims for bodily injury and property damage which (i) arise out of or are a result of the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of Manager except where attributable to actions or policies approved or required by Owner and (ii) result
in liability to Owner, including but not limited to, liability to Owner as a result of a final adjudication or judgment on the
merits by a court or arbitration proceeding and liability to Owner as a result of a good faith settlement by Owner of such Claims.
Manager shall have no obligation to furnish Owner with a defense or with counsel to defend any Claims which may be asserted or
made against Owner, regardless of the nature of the allegations. If, however, any such Claims result in liability to Owner, Manager
shall reimburse Owner for any attorneys' fees and costs actually and reasonably incurred by Owner to defend the portion or portions
of such Claims against Owner which arise out of or are a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Manager (except
actions or policies approved or required by Owner).

Owner shall cause to be placed

INSURANCE

in form and substance satisfactory to Manager), with limits of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence
(the “Owner's Liability Insurance”). The Owner's Liability Insurance shall include coverage for losses arising from

actions or policies specifically approved or required by Owner) or willful misconduct (except actions or policies specifically
approved or required by Owner) on the part of Manager or Manager's employees.

insurance and all others named as insureds. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, Owner and Manager
hereby release each other from and waive all rights of recovery and claims under or through subrogation or otherwise for any and
all losses and damages to property to the extent caused by a peril insured or insurable under the policies of insurance required
to be maintained under this Agreement by the waiving party and agree that no insurer shall have a right to recover any amounts

reimburse Manager for the increased amount.

guaranties provided by such parties in connection with any financing secured by the Project or any organizational documents related
