maintain an internal control environment that is customary and consistent with the size and complexity of Owner’s business. At Owner’s expense, Owner may hire consultants and other advisors to further develop and refine Manager’s
internal controls. Manager agrees, at Owner’s expense, to implement all reasonable suggestions Owner makes to modify internal controls and agrees to periodic testing and remediation of any identified deficiencies. Manager also agrees to assist
in an audit of the internal controls if requested by Owner, to be completed at Owner’s expense and in accordance with Section 4.05 herein. 

SECTION 4.04 Required Financial Reports. Manager shall furnish as listed on Schedule C monthly reports of collections,
disbursements, and other accounting matters. These reports will be received by Owner not later than the 15th day of the first month in which these reports are due and the 10th day of each month thereafter. To support the monthly financial reports, Manager shall maintain at Manager’s premises copies of the following: (a) bank statements, bank deposit slips, and
cancelled checks; (b) comprehensive bank reconciliations; (c) detailed cash receipt records; (d) summaries of adjusting journal entries, and (e) supporting documentation for payroll, payroll taxes, and employee benefits. 

SECTION 4.05 Owner’s Right to Audit and Test. Manager, in the conduct of its responsibilities and obligations to
Owner hereunder, shall maintain complete, accurate, and separate books and records for the Properties, the entries to which shall be supported by sufficient documentation to ascertain that said entries are properly and accurately recorded with
regard to each Property. Such books and records shall be maintained in accordance with Owner’s financial information requirements and shall at all times be the property of Owner. Manager shall maintain such books and records for a period of not
less than 12 months after the date of expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, except that upon any termination of this Agreement by Owner, Manager shall immediately deliver to Owner all such books and records. Owner reserves the right
to conduct an examination of the books and records maintained by Manager for Owner or that relate to the calculation of the fees, expenses, or other compensation paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement, and to perform any and all audit tests
(whether conducted by the external auditors or Owner’s internal audit team) relating to Manager’s activities, either at the Properties, or at the office of Manager; provided such examination and tests are related to those activities
performed by Manager for Owner or the calculation of the fees, expenses, or other compensation paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement. Owner may also conduct periodic testing of Manager’s internal controls. For purposes of clarity and not
limitation, Owner shall have the right to exam and audit Manager’s books and records in order to verify the accuracy of the Profit Cap, as defined in Section 6.03. Owner shall give Manager not less than forty-eight (48) hours
written notice of any such audit, examination or testing. Any and all such audits conducted either by Owner’s employees or appointees will be at the sole expense of Owner.

 ARTICLE VII 

INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION 

SECTION 7.01 Property and Liability Insurance. Manager shall, at Owner’s sole cost and expense, promptly obtain and
keep in force at all times adequate insurance against physical damage (e.g., fire with extended coverage endorsement) and against liability for loss, damage, or injury to property or persons which might arise out of the occupancy, management,
operation, or maintenance of the Properties and in accordance with Schedule D. If flood insurance coverage is required by any applicable law or Lender, separate policies shall be procured at Owner’s sole cost and expense. Liability
insurance must include a Commercial General Liability Policy and shall have bodily injury and property damage combined single limits of $1,000,000 each occurrence/$1,000,000 aggregate. Such liability insurance shall be deemed to be primary coverage
over Manager’s general liability insurance and must cover claims asserted by reason of alleged wrongful actions, fault, or negligence on the part of third-parties and independent contractors, including persons employed by or acting on behalf of
the Properties and Owner. Such insurance shall include Manager as an “Additional Insured” and provide for the payment of all costs of defense of any claims. Any deductible required under such insurance policies shall be Owner’s
expense. Liability insurance shall be written by a nationally recognized and reputable carrier licensed to do business in the state in which such Property is located. Manager shall furnish Owner with certificates evidencing such insurance and
duplicate copies of such policies. The certificates evidencing insurance shall have attached thereto an endorsement from the actual policy that Manager, Owner, and any Lender shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior written notice (by
certified mail) of cancellation, non-renewal, or any material change in the subject policy. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that as of the date of this Agreement,
Manager has procured the foregoing policies of insurance on behalf of Owner. 
 SECTION 7.02 Workers’ Compensation
Insurance. Manager shall, at Owner’s expense, maintain workers’ compensation insurance covering all employees of Manager employed in, on, or about the Properties so as to provide statutory benefits required by state and federal
laws. Manager shall be reimbursed by Owner for the cost of providing workers’ compensation insurance according to the Approved Operating Budget. 

SECTION 7.03 Fidelity Bond. Manager will maintain, at Manager’s expense, a comprehensive fidelity bond covering all
employees of Manager who handle or are responsible for the safekeeping of any monies of Owner. 
 SECTION 7.04
Indemnification. Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Manager and its agents and employees from and against all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, and/or expenses arising out of (i) Manager’s performance under
this Agreement, or (ii) facts, occurrences, or matters first arising prior to the date of this Agreement. Owner, at its own cost and expense, shall defend any action or proceeding against Manager arising therefrom. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Owner shall not be 

  
 16 













 
required to indemnify Manager against damages or expenses suffered as a result of the gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud on the part of Manager, its agents or employees. Manager shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Owner and its agents from and against all claims, liabilities, losses, damages and/or expenses arising out of the gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud on the part of Manager, its agents, or employees,
and shall at its own cost and expense defend any action or proceeding against Owner arising therefrom. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

TERMINATION 
 SECTION
8.01 Termination. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article II above, this Agreement may also be terminated as follows: 

(a) Automatically, in the event (i) Owner sells or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the Properties (which for
purposes of clarification may include the sale of all or substantially all of the REIT’s or the OP’s direct or indirect ownership interests in Owner) or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to Manager; or 

(b) by Manager, in the event Owner defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure such
default within fifteen (15) days after its receipt from Manager of a notice of default (specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the default complained of); provided, however, with respect to any
non-monetary default that cannot be cured within fifteen (15) days, Owner shall have such additional period as shall be reasonable, provided that Owner has commenced to cure such default within such
fifteen (15) day period, has proceeded to prosecute such cure with due diligence, and such cure is completed within sixty (60) days after Owner’s receipt of the notice of default (provided, however, that the extended cure period shall
not be applicable in the event of a failure to deliver the OP Units timely); or 
 (c) by Owner, in the event Manager defaults in the
performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure such default within fifteen (15) days after its receipt from Owner of a notice of default (specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the default complained of);
provided, however, that if such default cannot be cured within fifteen (15) days, then such additional period as shall be reasonable, provided that Manager has commenced to cure such default within such fifteen (15) day period, has
proceeded to prosecute such cure with due diligence and such cure is completed within sixty (60) days after Manager’s receipt of the notice of default; or 

(d) by either Owner or Manager, if a Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to the other party, or if any involuntary bankruptcy petition
shall be filed against the other party and is not dismissed within sixty (60) days of the date of such filing, or in the event the other party shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take advantage of any insolvency statute or
similar law, in any such event, termination to become effective upon written notice to the other party; 
 (e) by Owner, (i) in
the event Owner sells or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the Properties, or (ii) without cause upon not less than ninety (90) days prior written notice to Manager; 

  
 17 













 (f) by Owner, in the event that either Dana Sprong or Ryan McGarry ceases to lead the
activities of Manager or provide day-to-day management services to Owner (each, a “Key-Man Event”), unless
within thirty (30) days thereafter Manager presents one or more substitute key persons in the place of Messrs. Sprong and McGarry who are acceptable to Owner, in its sole discretion. Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
immediately and for cause after the expiration of the foregoing cure period following the occurrence of a Key-Man Event if Manager does not present a replacement acceptable to Owner, in its sole discretion; or

 Any amounts accruing to Manager prior to such termination shall be due and payable upon termination of this Agreement; provided, however,
that in the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01(c), no further fees or expenses shall be payable to Manager thereafter, other than reimbursement of expenses properly documented and supported by invoices or
receipts. 
 SECTION 8.02 Termination Fee. If Owner terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(e) before
the end of the Term or any subsequent term year, then Owner shall be obligated to pay Manager an amount equal to three times the sum of the annual Property Management Fee for the trailing 12-month period;
provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated prior to the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, (a) Owner shall pay Manager $1,000,000.00, in addition to the amount otherwise payable under this paragraph, and (b) the
Property Management Fee will be annualized for such 12-month period based on such Property Management Fee earned by Manager during such period. Any amounts accruing to Manager prior to such termination, shall
be due and payable upon termination of this Agreement. To the extent funds are available, such sums shall be payable from the Operating Account. Any amount due in excess of the funds available from the Operating Account shall be paid by Owner to
Manager upon demand. For the avoidance of doubt, Acquisition Fees, Construction Fees, and fees attributable to Additional Services are not considered in the calculation of the Termination Fee. 

SECTION 8.03 Owner Responsible for Payments. Owner will be responsible for the direct handling and payment of invoices
received after notice of termination. Upon notice of termination, Manager will submit to Owner written notice of all obligations payable with respect to the Properties through the termination date. 

SECTION 8.04 Final Accounting. Within sixty (60) days after termination, Manager shall deliver to Owner: (a) a
final accounting, reflecting the balance of income and expenses on the Properties as of the date of termination; (b) all records, contracts, leases, receipts, deposits, unpaid bills, and other papers or documents which pertain to the
Properties; and (c) all remaining funds held by Manager with respect to the Properties. In consideration of performing the services contemplated under the preceding sentence during such post-termination period, provided this Agreement is not
terminated pursuant to Section 8.01(c), Owner shall pay Manager an accounting fee equal to $75,000.00 per month. 
 SECTION
8.05 Manager’s Retention of Copies. Manager shall be entitled to retain copies of all documents referred to in Section 8.04. 

  
 18 













 SECTION 8.06 Survival of Obligations. All obligations of the parties
hereunder, as to which performance is contemplated to occur after termination, shall survive termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all representations and warranties of the parties contained herein and all
provisions of this Agreement that require Owner to have insured or to defend, reimburse, or indemnify Manager shall survive the termination of this Agreement; and if Manager is or becomes involved in any proceeding or litigation by reason of having
been Owner’s agent, such provisions shall apply as if this Agreement were still in effect. 
 ARTICLE IX 

SECTION 9.01Transition Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the property management company(ies)
for the Properties prior to Owner’s acquisition of the Properties (the “Prior Manager”) shall continue to manage the Properties under the applicable property management agreement(s) (the “Prior Agreement”) for
a reasonable period of time after the Effective Date of this Agreement in order to effectuate the orderly transition of management services to Manager (the “Transition Period”). Management of the Properties, including any
operational guidelines and any fees paid to the Prior Manager, shall be governed by the Prior Agreement during the Transition Period.
