Section
5.               
Capital Contributions, Loans, Percentage Interests
and Capital Accounts.


 


5.1             
Initial Capital Contributions. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4, upon execution
of this Agreement, Bluerock and Carroll shall each make an initial Capital Contribution to the Company of cash in an amount equal
to the respective amounts set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto; provided, however, any funds advanced by Bluerock or Carroll
(or their respective affiliates) pursuant to the terms of the Cost Sharing Agreement shall be


 




    	 	13	 



     


    

credited against the applicable Member’s
obligation and provided, further, in the case of Carroll, its initial Capital Contribution to the Company shall be credited with
$372,500 for the agreed value of certain contractual rights and intangibles contributed to the Company, including the assignment
of the Purchase Agreement to acquire the Property to the Company or its Subsidiary.1
The initial Capital Contribution of the Members to the Company may include amounts for working capital.


 


5.2             
Additional Capital Contributions.


 


(a)               
Additional Capital Contributions may be called for from the Members (i) by either Member if the same is a Protective
Capital Call, or (ii) as reasonably determined by the Management Committee, by written notice to the Members from time to
time as and to the extent capital is necessary to effect an investment or expenditures for the Property, the Company, or its subsidiary.
Except as otherwise agreed by the Members, such additional Capital Contributions shall be in an amount for each Member equal to
the product of the amount of the aggregate Capital Contribution called multiplied by each Member’s then current Percentage
Interest. Such additional Capital Contributions 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:


 


(1)              
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 percent (20%) 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 Loans 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


 


 


 




1
At closing of the acquisition of the Property, $372,500 shall be added to the required equity for closing and each Member shall
be responsible for funding its pro-rata share of such amount at the closing as part of its Initial Capital Contribution according
to its Percentage Interest; provided, Carroll’s required Initial Capital Contribution shall be net of the credit amount provided
in Section 5.1.


 




    	 	14	 



     


    

the making of any 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)(1) 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;


 


(2)              
subject to any applicable thin capitalization limitations on indebtedness of the Company for U.S. federal income
tax purposes, to treat the non-failing Member’s 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 Flow and prior to any Distributions
made to any 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)(2) shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution made by the Defaulting Member;


 


(3)              
to make an additional Capital Contribution to the Company equal to the Default Amount whereupon the Percentage Interests
of the Members shall be recalculated to (i) increase the non-defaulting Member’s Percentage Interest by the percentage (“Applicable
Adjustment Percentage”) determined by dividing one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Default Amount by the sum of the
Members’ Total Investment (taking into account the actual amount of such additional Capital Contribution) and by increasing
its Total Investment solely for purposes of determining the Member’s Percentage Interest, by one and one-half of the amount
of the Default Amount, and (ii) to reduce the Defaulting Member’s Percentage Interest by the Applicable Adjustment Percentage
and by decreasing its Total Investment solely for purposes of determining the Member’s Percentage Interest by one-half of
the amount of the Default Amount; or


 


(4)              
in lieu of the remedies set forth in subparagraphs (1), (2) or (3), 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.


 


(c)               
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2, no additional Capital Contributions shall be
required 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, non-residential lease, agreement or


 




    	 	15	 



     


    

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, (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 such 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, and if appropriate to reflect any pending adjustments that have been determined but not
yet effected, prior to any request for Additional Capital Contributions pursuant to Section 5.2 or any distributions to
Members pursuant to Section 6.1, 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, as
the same may be further adjusted pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(3). 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.


 


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


 




    	 	16	 



     


    

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 Section 6.1 or Section 13.3(d)(3). 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. Upon approval by Bluerock and Carroll, 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 any Collateral Agreements (including the Backstop
Agreement) and 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 Management Committee, 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.


 


6.1             
Distribution of Distributable Funds


 


(a)               
The Management Committee shall calculate and determine the amount of Distributable Funds for each applicable period.
Except as provided in Sections 5.2(b), 6.1 or 13.3 or otherwise provided hereunder, Distributable Funds, if any,
shall be distributed to the Members, on a monthly basis based on a calendar year, so
long as the Loan is outstanding. Thereafter, such distributions shall be made on the 15th day of each month or from
time to time as determined by the Management Committee.


 


(b)              
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


 




    	 	17	 



     


    

delivered by such Member to the Company
or any other Member but shall be deemed distributed to such Member for purposes of this Agreement.


 


(c)               
Distributable Funds available other than from the proceeds of a Sale shall be distributed to the Members in proportion
to their respective Percentage Interests.


 


(d)              
Distributable Funds available from the proceeds of a Sale shall be distributed in the following order and priority:


 


(1)              
First, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests until Bluerock shall realize through
Distributions (including, without limitation, any Distribution received by such Member pursuant to Section 6.1(c) above), and actually
receive, the First Tier Preferred Return; and


 


(2)              
Second, to Carroll, in an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Contract Sale Price; and


 


(3)              
Third, to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests until Bluerock shall realize through
Distributions (including, without limitation, any Distribution received by such Member pursuant to Section 6.1(c), (d)(1) and (d)(2)
above), and actually receive, the Second Tier Preferred Return; and


 


(4)              
Fourth, to Carroll, in an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Contract Sale Price; and


 


(5)              
Fifth, the balance, if any, of such Distributable Funds remaining after Distributions (1) through (4) above shall
be to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.


 


6.2             
Distributions in Kind. In the discretion of the Management Committee, Distributable Funds may be distributed
to the Members in cash or in kind and Members may be compelled to accept a distribution of any asset in kind even if the percentage
of that asset distributed to it exceeds a percentage of that asset that is equal to the percentage in which such Member shares
in Distributions from the Company. 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 Management Committee. 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.

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


 




    	 	18	 



     


    

each Member is, as nearly as possible,
equal to the Distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 6.1 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 Section 6.1 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)(3).


 


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 Treasury 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 the “traditional method” set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) unless the Members unanimously agree to another
permissible method under such Regulations.


 


(c)               
Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Members 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.


 


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


 


8.1             
Books and Records. The books and records of account of the Company shall be maintained in accordance with
industry standards and shall be based on the Property Manager Reports. The books and records shall be maintained at the Company’s
principal office or at a location designated by the Management Committee, and all such books and records (and the dealings and
other affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall be available to any


 




    	 	19	 



     


    

Member at such location for review, investigation,
audit and copying, at 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.


 


8.2             
Reports and Financial Statements.


 


(a)               
Within thirty (30) days of the end of each Fiscal Year, the Manager shall cause each Member to be furnished with
two sets of the following additional annual reports computed as of the last day of the Fiscal Year:


 


(1)              
An unaudited balance sheet of the Company;


 


(2)              
An unaudited statement of the Company’s profit and loss; and


 


(3)              
A statement of the Members’ Capital Accounts and changes therein for such Fiscal Year.


 


(b)              
Within fifteen (15) days of the end of each quarter of each Fiscal Year, and provided that any such request was made
prior to the end of the quarter, the Property Manager shall cause to be furnished to Bluerock such information as requested by
Bluerock as is necessary for any reporting requirements of the SOIFs, BR Growth, or BR Growth II (to the extent any of such affiliates
of Bluerock are hereafter a Member or direct or indirect owner of a Member of the Company) and any reporting requirements of 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 reasonably 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.


 


(c)               
The Members acknowledge that the Property Manager is obligated to perform Property-related accounting and furnish
Property-related accounting statements under the terms of the Management Agreement (the “Property Manager Reports”).
Manager shall be entitled to rely on the Property Manager Reports with respect to its 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 Manager to further investigate the completeness, accuracy or adequacy of the Property Manager Reports.


 


8.3             
Tax Matters Member. Bluerock is hereby designated as the “tax matters partner” of the Company
and the Subsidiaries, as defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the


 




    	 	20	 



     


    

“Tax Matters Member”)
and shall prepare or cause to be prepared all income and other tax returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to the
terms and conditions of Section 8.5. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all elections required or permitted
to be made by the Company and its Subsidiaries under the Code or state tax law shall be timely determined and made by Bluerock
after consultation with Carroll. The Members intend that the Company be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal, state and local
tax purposes, and the Members will not elect or authorize any person to elect to change the status of the Company from that of
a partnership for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes. Bluerock agrees to consult with Carroll with respect to any
written notice of any material tax elections and any material inquiries, claims, assessments, audits, controversies or similar
events received from any taxing authority. In addition, upon the request of any Member, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries
shall make an election pursuant to Code Section 754 to adjust the basis of the Company’s property in the manner provided
in Code Sections 734(b) and 743(b). The Company hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Bluerock from and against any claim, loss,
expense, liability, action or damage resulting from its acting or its failure to take any action as the “tax matters partner”
of the Company and its Subsidiaries, provided that any such action or failure to act does not constitute gross negligence
or willful misconduct by Bluerock.


 


8.4             
Bank Accounts. All funds of the Company are to be deposited in the Company’s name in such bank account
or accounts as may be designated by the Management Committee or in the Management Agreement and shall be withdrawn on the signature
of such Person or Persons as the Management Committee may authorize.


 


8.5             
Tax Returns. Bluerock shall cause to be prepared all income and other tax returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries
required by applicable law and shall submit such returns to the Management Committee for its review, comment and approval at least
twenty (20) days prior to the due date or extended due date thereof and shall thereafter cause the same to be filed in a timely
manner (including extensions). No later than the due date or extended due date, Manager shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to each Member a copy of the tax returns for the Company and such Subsidiaries with respect to such Fiscal Year, together with
such information with respect to the Company and such Subsidiaries as shall be necessary for the preparation by such Member of
its U.S. federal and state income or other tax and information returns.

the reasonable expenses and charges incurred directly or indirectly by or on behalf of the Manager, Bluerock, Carroll or the Property
Manager in connection with its obligations under this Section 8 will be reimbursed by the Company to the applicable party.
Further, it is expressly understood and agreed that all reasonable expenses of Bluerock, Carroll and their principals and Affiliates

Section 9.             Management and Operations.


 


9.1             
Management.


 


(a)               
The Company shall be managed by Bluerock (“Manager”), who 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. Manager
shall manage the operations and affairs of the Company, subject to the oversight of the Management Committee. To the extent that
Bluerock or a Bluerock Transferee Transfers all or a portion of its Interest in accordance with Section 12 to a Bluerock
Transferee, such Bluerock Transferee may be appointed as the Manager under this Section 9.1(a) by Bluerock or a Bluerock
Transferee then holding all or a portion of an Interest without any further action or authorization by any Member.


 


(b)              
The Management Committee may appoint individuals to act on behalf of the Company with such titles and authority as
determined from time to time by the Management Committee.


 


(c)               
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Major Decisions shall require the consent of both Members.


 


9.2             
Management Committee.


 


(a)               
Bluerock and Carroll hereby establish a management committee (the “Management Committee”). The
Management Committee shall consist of four (4) individuals appointed to act as “representatives” of the Member that
appointed him or her (the “Representatives”) as follows: (i) Bluerock shall be entitled to designate two (2)
Representatives to represent Bluerock; and (ii) Carroll shall be entitled to designate two (2) Representatives to represent Carroll.
The initial members of the Management Committee are set forth on Exhibit A. Bluerock and Carroll each represents, warrants
and covenants that the Representatives designated by them on Exhibit A have, and shall at all times have, the full power
and authority to make decisions and vote as a member of the Management Committee, and that such Representatives’ votes as
members of the Management Committee will be binding on each of them and any transferee of all or a portion of their Interest;
unless and until such time as Bluerock or Carroll or their transferee notifies the other Member of a change in a Representative,
after which time this sentence shall apply only with respect to the replacement Representative.


 


(b)              
Each member of the Management Committee shall hold office until death, resignation or removal at the pleasure of
the Member that appointed him or her. If a vacancy occurs on the Management Committee, the Person with the right to appoint and
remove such vacating Representative shall appoint his or her successor. A Member shall lose its right to have Representatives on
the Management Committee, and its Representatives on the Management Committee shall be deemed to be automatically removed, as of
the date on which such Member ceases to be a Member or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. If Bluerock or a Bluerock Transferee
Transfers all or a portion of its Interest to a Bluerock Transferee pursuant to Section


 




    	 	22	 



     


    

12.2, such Bluerock Transferee shall
automatically, and without any further action or authorization by any Member, succeed to the rights and powers of Bluerock under
this Section 9 as may be agreed to between Bluerock or the Bluerock Transferee which is transferring the Interest, on the one hand,
and the Bluerock Transferee to which the Interest is being transferred, on the other hand, including the shared or unilateral right
to appoint the Representatives that Bluerock was theretofore entitled to appoint pursuant to Section 9.2(a).


 


(c)               
The Management Committee 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 Representative. Notice of regular meetings of the Management Committee is not
required. Representatives may waive in writing the requirements for notice before, at or after a special meeting, and attendance
at such a meeting without objection by a Representative shall be deemed a waiver of such notice requirement.


 


(d)              
The Management Committee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect one of the Representatives or another
person to serve as Secretary of the Management Committee. Such person shall hold office until his or her death, resignation or
removal by a vote of the Management Committee. The Secretary or a person designated by him or her shall take written minutes of
the proceedings of the meetings of the Management Committee, and such minutes shall be filed with the records of the Company.


 


(e)               
The only Representatives required to constitute a quorum for a meeting of the Management Committee shall be one (1)
Representative appointed by Bluerock and one (1) Representative appointed by Carroll; provided, however, that if Carroll has not
appointed at least one (1) Representative to the Management Committee at the time of such meeting (for example, if each Carroll
Representative has been removed and not replaced), then a quorum for a meeting of the Management Committee shall be one (1) Representative
appointed by Bluerock. Each of the two (2) Representatives appointed by Bluerock shall be entitled to cast two (2) votes on any
matter that comes before the Management Committee and each of the Representatives appointed by Carroll shall be entitled to cast
one (1) vote on any matter that comes before the Management Committee. Approval by the Management Committee of any matter shall
require the affirmative vote (including votes cast by proxy) of at least a majority of the votes of the Representatives then in
office voting at a duly held meeting of the Management Committee.


 


(f)               
Any meeting of the Management Committee 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 shall constitute presence in person at such
meeting.


 


(g)              
Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Management Committee may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed
by the Representatives having not less than the minimum of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a
meeting at which all Representatives entitled to vote thereon were present


 




    	 	23	 



     


    

and voted. All consents shall be filed
with the minutes of the proceedings of the Management Committee.


 


(h)              
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, none of the Members or their Representatives (in their
capacities as members of the Management Committee) only, shall have any duties or liabilities to the Company or any other Member
(including any fiduciary duties), whether or not such duties or liabilities otherwise arise or exist in law or in equity, and each
Member hereby expressly waives any such duties or liabilities; provided, however, that this Section 9.2(h)
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of such Representatives or the Members (A) for acts or omissions that involve fraud,
intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, or (B) for any transaction not permitted or authorized under
or pursuant to this Agreement from which such Representative or Member derived a personal benefit unless the Management Committee
has approved in writing such transaction in accordance with this Agreement; provided, further, however, that
the duty of care of each of such Representatives and the Members is to not act with fraud, intentional misconduct or a knowing
and culpable violation of law. Except as provided in this Agreement, whenever in this Agreement a Representative of a Member and/or
a Member is permitted or required to make a decision affecting or involving the Company, any Member or any other Person, such Representative
and/or such Member shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as he, she or it desires, including a particular
Member’s interests, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have no duty or obligation to give any
consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Company or any Member.


 


9.3             
Annual Business Plan.


 


(a)               
The initial Annual Business Plan for the balance of calendar year 2016 with respect to the Property is attached hereto as
Exhibit D and is incorporated herein for all intents and purposes under this Agreement (the “Initial Business Plan”).


 


(b)              
For Annual Business Plans for calendar years 2017 and 2018, respectively, Property Manager shall prepare the Annual Business
Plan for the operation of the Property for the Owner’s review and approval, no later than September 15 of the immediately
preceding year for the 2017 calendar year Annual Business Plan and September 15 of the immediately preceding year for the 2018
calendar year (and any subsequent) Annual Business Plan. If final approval of an Annual Business Plan by Owner has not been given
by the beginning of the year to which such proposed Annual Business Plan relates, Property Manager shall operate the Property on
the basis of the previous year’s approved Annual Business Plan adjusted by (i) assuming that the revenue from the Property
will increase to 103% of the revenues collected in the prior year, (ii) assuming that the Controllable Expenses will increase to
103% of the amount of the actual Controllable Expenses incurred in the prior year, (iii) increasing all Uncontrollable Expenses
by any anticipated or known increases in such Uncontrollable Expenses, and (iv) including any Emergency Expenditure. Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, if, prior to the commencement of calendar year 2017, the parties have not agreed on the budget for
capital expenditures at the Property in the Annual Business Plan for calendar year 2017, there shall be no budgeted capital expenditures
for calendar year 2017; provided, however, that any incomplete capital projects commenced in calendar year 2016 and contemplated
in the Initial Business Plan shall be funded as provided in the Initial Business Plan until such capital projects are completed.




    	 	24	 



     


    

 


(c)               
If Property Manager and Owner agreed to the Annual Business Plan for calendar year 2018 in accordance with subsection (b)
above, then the Annual Business Plan for calendar year 2019 shall also be determined in accordance with the applicable provisions
of subsection (b) above. If, however, Property Manager and Owner were unable to agree to the Annual Business Plan for calendar
year 2018, then Owner may establish the Annual Business Plan for calendar year 2019, without Property Manager’s consent.


 


(d)              
For Annual Business Plans for calendar years 2020 and all subsequent calendar years, if applicable, Property Manager shall
have the right to prepare and propose an Annual Business Plan for such calendar year on or prior to September 15 of the immediately
preceding year (without obligation to do so), and Owner may, regardless of the information contained in Property Manager’s
proposal, establish the Annual Business Plan for the applicable calendar year, without Property Manager’s consent.


 


(e)               
Property Manager and the Company, on behalf of Owner, each acknowledge and agree that, in establishing the Annual Business
Plans in accordance with this Section 9.3, each shall be obligated to act reasonably and in good faith, taking into account
past performance of the Property, leasing trends and competitive properties within the market where the Property is located, the
age of the Property and the units at the time such Annual Business Plan is established, and such other factors as reasonably prudent
owners and managers of multifamily and retail assets substantially similar to the Property would take into account in order to
maximize revenue therefrom.


 


(f)               
No Material Deviations (as defined herein) from any item in an Annual Business Plan approved in accordance with the terms
herein shall be made by Property Manager without the prior approval of the Management Committee, to the extent required hereunder.
The Property Manager shall provide quarterly updates to the Annual Business Plan, solely for informational purposes. Each Annual
Business Plan shall include the information set forth in Exhibit B. The Company, for itself and on behalf of the Owner,
will consider the proposed Annual Business Plan in accordance with the terms hereof and will consult with Property Manager prior
to the commencement of the forthcoming calendar year in order to agree on an Annual Business Plan for such calendar year. In no
event shall the Company, acting on behalf of Owner, have the right to modify the Annual Business Plan to reduce the Property Management
Fee or Reimbursable Expenses otherwise due. In no event shall Property Manager be deemed in default under the Management Agreement
if such changes by the Company, acting on behalf of Owner, to the Annual Business Plan cause Property Manager to have insufficient
funds to perform its obligations thereunder. Property Manager agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the
actual costs of maintaining and operating the Property shall not exceed the amount reasonably necessary and, in any event, will
not exceed the Annual Business Plan either in total amount or in any one accounting category. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
Property Manager shall secure the Company’s, on behalf of Owner, prior written approval for any expenditure that will result
in an excess of the annual budgeted amount set forth in the Annual Business Plan in any one accounting category by more than the
lesser of ten percent (10%) or $10,000, or $25,000.00 in the aggregate for all categories (a “Material Deviation”).
Property Manager shall promptly advise and inform the Company, acting on behalf of Owner, of any transaction, notice, event or
proposal




    	 	25	 



     


    

directly relating to the management and
operation of the Property which does or is likely to significantly affect, either adversely or favorably, the Property, other assets
of the Owner or cause a Material Deviation from the Annual Business Plan. Nothing contained herein shall in any way diminish the
obligations or duties of Property Manager hereunder.


 


(g)              
Notwithstanding the terms of Section 9.3(a) through Section 9.3(f) above, (i) the Annual Business Plan may,
at any time, be amended upon unanimous approval by the Members, and (ii) failure on the part of the Members to agree on any such
Annual Business Plan (or any amendment thereto) shall not constitute the failure to obtain agreement on a Major Decision and shall
not entitle either Member to exercise the rights under Section 15 applicable to a failure to obtain agreement on Major Decisions.


 


(h)              
For all purposes of this Section 9.3, decisions on behalf of Owner or the Company shall be made by the Management
Committee.


 


9.4             
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 Management Committee. Property Manager shall promptly advise and inform the Management Committee 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 of the Company 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. 


 


9.5             
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 all Members.
Without limiting the foregoing, any such agreement shall be on arm’s length terms and conditions, be terminable on fifteen
(15) days’ notice without penalty and the terms and conditions of such agreement shall be disclosed to all Representatives
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.


 


9.6             
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


 




    	 	26	 



     


    

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.


 


9.7             
Management Agreement.


 


(a)               
Independent Contractor. CMG, as Property Manager, has agreed to provide management services to the Company
(or a Subsidiary of the Company) with respect to the Property on the terms set forth in the Management Agreement; and it is agreed
that Property Manager shall provide such management services to the Company (or a Subsidiary of the Company) as an independent
contractor.


 


(b)              
Management and Oversight Fees. The Company (or a Subsidiary of the Company) has entered 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 (or a Subsidiary of the
Company). Pursuant to the Management Agreement and subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, Property Manager will be entitled
to receive a net property management fee equal to two and one half percent (2.50%) of Monthly Gross Receipts (as defined in the
Management Agreement) (the “Property Management Fee”) and an asset management fee equal to one half of one percent
(0.50%) of Monthly Gross Receipts (the “Asset Management Fee”).
The foregoing notwithstanding, if at any time the Company elects to hire a separate property management company solely with respect
to the property management activities related to the retail commercial spaces, then the Property Management Fee and the Asset Management
Fee shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis to offset the corresponding fees payable to such replacement retail property
manager. CMG, as Property Manager, shall also be entitled to a construction management fee of five percent (5.0%) of any expenses
incurred in connection with certain interior renovation projects and capital expenditures for the Property, as set forth and described
in the Management Agreement and in the Annual Business Plan. The foregoing notwithstanding, with respect to the retail commercial
spaces, the construction management fee shall only be paid to CMG, as Property Manager, in connection with any work performed to
upgrade any currently vacant retail space from its current condition to a white box condition, the cost of which work is not expected
to exceed $120,000. For purposes hereof, white box condition will include applicable framing and sheet rock installation, pre-painting
preparatory work and painting of the units and the installation of applicable ceiling grid. Finally, for the avoidance of doubt,
the parties acknowledge and agree that no construction management fee shall be paid or be payable in connection with any tenant
improvement work or other tenant specific work with respect to any retail space. If CMG has been terminated as the Property Manager
for Cause, then Bluerock will be entitled to retain a new Property Manager and receive an oversight fee equal to one percent (1.00%)
of the Monthly Gross Receipts (the “Oversight Fee”).
It is understood that if CMG is terminated as the Property Manager without Cause, Bluerock shall not be entitled to the Oversight
Fee, unless Bluerock purchases the Interest of Carroll pursuant to Section 15
or otherwise by agreement of the parties. The foregoing shall not be deemed to imply that Bluerock will have any unilateral right
to purchase the Interest of Carroll solely on account of the termination of CMG as Property Manager.


 




    	 	27	 



     


    

(c)               
Termination of Management Agreement.


 


(1)              
The Management Agreement shall be terminable as provided under its terms and conditions by the Company or Bluerock
or, as long as the Property Manager is CMG, by Property Manager.


 


(2)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.7(c), no termination of the Management Agreement or buyout
of the other party’s Interest in the Company shall be permitted unless permitted or approved under any applicable Collateral
Agreement or under the Loan Documents.


 


(d)              
Delegation. Any delegation of the responsibilities of Property Manager or the subcontracting for such services
will be subject to the prior written consent of the Management Committee. Separate agreements may also be entered into with Carroll,
Bluerock, their respective Affiliates, or with third parties for certain services to be provided to the Company (or a Subsidiary
of 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 Management Committee,
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) days’ notice for any reason or no reason.


 


9.8             
Operation in Accordance with REOC/REIT Requirements.


 


(a)            The Members
acknowledge that Bluerock or one or more of its Affiliates (a “BR Affiliate”) intends or may intend 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 in such case 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, Carroll (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 reasonable requirements specified by Bluerock in order to ensure compliance with this Section 9.8.


 


(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


 




    	 	28	 



     


    

any “unrelated business taxable income”
as such term is defined in Code Sections 511 through 514, unless specifically agreed to by the Manager 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.


 


(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);


 


(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


 




    	 	29	 



     


    

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


 


(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; provided, however, any such cash distributions shall be made in accordance with the priorities set
forth in Section 6.1(c).


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 9.8(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 9.8(c). For purposes of this Section 9.8(c), “REIT Prohibited Transactions” shall mean any
of the actions specifically set forth in Sections 9.8(c)(i) through (c)(ix) as well as any action of which the Company receives
notice from Bluerock 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) shall not be considered a REIT Prohibited Transaction.

Section
10.           
Confidentiality.


 


10.1         
Any information relating to a Member’s business, operation or finances which are proprietary to, or considered
proprietary by, 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 is or hereafter becomes public, other than by breach of this Agreement; 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 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


 




    	 	31	 



     


    

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 Carroll 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 representatives.


 


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
9.6), 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.

assets or businesses in any court or before or by any governmental department, board, agency or instrumentality, 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 ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition 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 of any court, any governmental

a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of such Member.


 




    	 	33	 



     


    

(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 that no conversations or prior negotiations were had by such party with any broker, agent or other such person
concerning the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement.


 


(g)              
Investment Company Act. Neither such Member nor any of its Affiliates is, nor will the Company as a result
of such Member holding an interest therein be, an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under,
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 


(h)              
Securities Matters.


 


(1)              
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.


 


(2)              
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.


 


(3)              
Such Member is unaware of, and 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.


 


(4)              
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.


 


(5)              
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.


 




    	 	34	 



     


    

(6)              
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.


 


(7)              
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.


 


(8)              
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, Sections 5.2(b), 15.1
and 15.2, or as approved by the Management Committee, 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 course of its business and operations.


 


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.


 


(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):


 




    	 	35	 



     


    

(1)              
Any Transfer by Carroll of up to one hundred percent (100%) of its Interest to any Affiliate of Carroll Parent (a
“Carroll Transferee”), it being expressly understood and agreed that transfers of ownership interests in Carroll
shall not be prohibited as long as at least one of the Key Individuals (collectively or individually) remains actively involved
in the operation and management of Carroll (to the extent that it continues to hold, or control, any interest in the Company),
Carroll Parent and any Carroll Transferee; and


 


(2)              
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) BR Growth or any Person that is directly or indirectly owned by BR Growth; (B) BR
SOIF II or any Person that is directly or indirectly owned by BR SOIF II; (C) BR SOIF III or any Person that is directly or indirectly
owned by BR SOIF III; (D) BR REIT or any Person that is directly or indirectly owned by BR REIT; or (E) BR Growth II, or any Person
that is directly or indirectly owned by BR Growth II (collectively, a “Bluerock Transferee”);


 


provided however, as to subparagraphs (b)(1)
and (b)(2), and as to subparagraph (a), no Transfer shall be permitted and shall be void ab initio if it shall violate any
“Transfer” provision of the Loan Documents or any applicable Collateral Agreement with third party lenders.


 


(c)               
Upon the execution by any such Carroll Transferee or Bluerock Transferee of such documents necessary to admit such
party into the Company and to cause the Carroll Transferee or Bluerock Transferee (as applicable) to become bound by this Agreement,
the Carroll 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 Manager and any transferee of an interest in Manager shall be recognized and permitted
under this Agreement and by the Members, without any further action or authorization by any Member.


 


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), 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 the foregoing, 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 Management Committee determines in its sole discretion that:


 




    	 	36	 



     


    

(1)              
the Transfer would require registration of any Interest under, or result in a violation of, any federal or state
securities laws;


 


(2)              
the Transfer would result in a termination of the Company under Code Section 708(b); provided, however, that
any such determination under this Section 12.3(b)(2) shall require the reasonable determination and approval of at
least one (1) Representative appointed by Carroll.


 


(3)              
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;


 


(4)              
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;


 


(5)              
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)(5), 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 Management Committee, a principal purpose of the use of the flow-through entity is to permit
the Company to satisfy the 100-member limitation; or


 


(6)              
the transferor failed to comply with the provisions of Sections 12.2(a) or (b).


 


The Management Committee
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.


 



    	 	37	 



     


    

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

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


 


(d)              
the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act; or


 


(e)               
the Purchase Agreement has not been closed by July 14, 2016.


 


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 Management Committee 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 Management
Committee 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.


 


(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:


 




    	 	38	 



     


    

(1)              
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;


 


(2)              
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;


 


(3)              
the balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with Section 6.1.


 


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. No Member, Manager, Representative or officer of the Company 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, Manager, Representative or officer or the willful breach of any obligation under this Agreement.


 


14.2         
Indemnification by Company. The Company hereby indemnifies, holds harmless and defends the Members, the Manager,
the Representatives, the officers and each of their respective agents, officers, directors, members, managers, partners, shareholders
and employees 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 (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 so called “bad boy” guaranties or similar agreements which provide for recourse as a result of failure to comply
with covenants, willful misconduct or gross negligence), (ii) their status as Members, Managers, Representatives, employees or
officers of the Company, or (iii) the Company’s assets, property, business or affairs (including, without limitation, the
actions of any officer, director, member, manager or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), if the acts or omissions
were not performed or omitted fraudulently or as a result of gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct by the indemnified
party or as a result of the willful breach of any obligation under this Agreement by the indemnified party. For the purposes of
this Section 14.2, officers, directors, members, managers, employees and other representatives of Affiliates of a Member
who are functioning as representatives of such Member in connection with this Agreement shall be considered representatives of
such Member for the purposes of this Section 14. Reasonable expenses incurred by the indemnified party in connection with
any such proceeding relating to the


 




    	 	39	 



     


    

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.


 


14.3

(a)

out of any fraud, gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct on the part of, or by, Carroll, the Key Individual, any entity
controlled directly or indirectly by the Key Individual that directly or indirectly controls Carroll, or any Representative appointed
by Carroll.


 


(b)              
Bluerock hereby indemnifies, defends and holds harmless the Company, Carroll, each Carroll Transferee and each of
their subsidiaries and their agents, officers, directors, members, managers, partners, shareholders and employees from and against
all losses, costs, expenses, damages, claims and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) as a result of or arising
out of any fraud, gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct on the part of, or by, Bluerock or any entity controlled directly
or indirectly by Bluerock, or any Representative appointed by Bluerock.


 


14.4         
General Indemnification by the Members.


 


(a)               
Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, each Member (the “Indemnifying Party”) hereby
indemnifies and holds harmless the other Members, the Company and each of their subsidiaries and their agents, officers, directors,
members, managers, partners, shareholders and employees (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against all
losses, costs, expenses, damages, claims and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) as a result of or arising
out of (i) any breach of any obligation of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement, or (ii) any breach of any obligation by
or any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates, whether in this
Agreement or in any other agreement with respect to the conveyance, assignment, contribution or other transfer of the Property
(or interests therein), assets, agreements, rights or other interests conveyed, assigned, contributed or otherwise transferred
to the Company (collectively, the “Inducement Agreements”).


 


(b)              
Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other agreement, recourse for the indemnity obligation of the Members
under this Section 14.4 shall be limited to such Indemnifying Party’s Interest in the Company; provided, however,
that recourse against either Member under its indemnity obligations under this Agreement or otherwise shall be further limited
to an aggregate amount equal to the value of such Member’s Interest as determined by and being limited to the then current
liquidation value of such Member’s Interest assuming the Company


 




    	 	40	 



     


    

were liquidated in an orderly fashion and
all net proceeds thereof were distributed in accordance with Section 6.


 


(c)               
The indemnities, contributions and other obligations under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights that
any Indemnified Party may have at law, in equity or otherwise. The terms of this Section 14 shall survive termination of
this Agreement.


 


Section
15.           
Sale Rights.


 


15.1         
Push / Pull Rights.


 


(a)               
Availability of Rights. If, at any time following the second anniversary of the date that the Property is
initially acquired, the Members 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 may exercise its right to initiate the provisions of this Section 15.1.


 


(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.


 


(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 two percent (2%) 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


 




    	 	41	 



     


    

by the selling Member or
a refusal by any lender of the Company (or any Subsidiary 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 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). At such closing, the following shall occur:


 


(1)              
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


 


(2)              
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, 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 second anniversary of the date that the Property is initially acquired,
either Member (i) 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 the Property at a price in excess of
the then-pending balance due under the Loan and otherwise on terms that such Member desires for the Company, or any Subsidiary
that owns the 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


 




    	 	42	 



     


    

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”).


 


(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.


 


(c)               
Offer Unacceptable.


 


(1)              
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.


 


(2)              
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.


 


(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 the
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 the 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.

16.6         
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
or in any respect, then the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any
way be affected or impaired, and the Members shall use their best efforts to amend or substitute such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision with enforceable and valid provisions which would produce as nearly as possible the rights and obligations previously
intended by the Members without renegotiation of any material terms and conditions stipulated herein.


 


16.7

16.12

forth in Section 5.2(b), the Members shall not be bound by, or be personally liable for, by reason of being a Member, a
judgment, decree or order of a court or in any other manner, for the expenses, liabilities or obligations of the Company, and the
liability of each Member shall be limited solely to the amount of its Capital Contributions as provided under Section 5.
Except as set forth in Section 14.3 and with respect to a Default Loan as set forth in Section 5.2(b), any claim
against any Member (the “Member in Question”) which may arise under


 




    	 	46	 



     


    

this Agreement shall be made only against,
and shall be limited to, such Member in Question’s Interest, the proceeds of the sale by the Member in Question of such Interest
or the undivided interest in the assets of the Company distributed to the Member in Question pursuant to Section 13.3(d)
hereof. Except as set forth in Section 14.3 and with respect to a Default Loan as set forth in Section 5.2(b), any
right to proceed against (i) any other assets of the Member in Question or (ii) any agent, officer, director, member, manager,
partner, shareholder or employee of the Member in Question or the assets of any such Person, as a result of such a claim against
the Member in Question arising under this Agreement or otherwise, is hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waived.


 


16.13     
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 of this Agreement or given to a Member by law. In the event of any dispute between the parties
hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred
in connection therewith.


 


16.14     
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.


 


16.15     
Limitation On Use of Names. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or otherwise to the contrary,
each of Bluerock and Carroll as to itself agree that neither it nor any of its Affiliates, agents, or representatives is granted
a license to use or shall use the name of the other under any circumstances whatsoever, except such name may be used in furtherance
of the business of the Company but only as and to the extent unanimously approved by the Members. Any change in the name of the
Property must be approved by the Management Committee.


 


16.16     
Publicly Traded Partnership Provision. Each Member hereby severally covenants and agrees with the other Members
for the benefit of such Members, that (a) it is not currently making a market in Interests in the Company and will not in the future
make such a market and (b) it will not Transfer its Interest on an established securities market, a secondary market or an over-the-counter
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 16.16 and to
assign such Interest only to such Persons who agree to be similarly bound.


 


16.17     
Uniform Commercial Code. The interest of each Member in the Company shall be an “uncertificated security”
governed by Article 8 of the Delaware UCC and the UCC as enacted in the State of New York (the “New York UCC”),
including, without limitation, (i) for purposes of the definition of a “security” thereunder, the interest of each
Member in the Company


 




    	 	47	 



     


    

shall be a security governed by Article
8 of the Delaware UCC and the New York UCC and (ii) for purposes of the definition of an “uncertificated security”
thereunder.


 


16.18     
Public Announcements. Neither Carroll nor any of its Affiliates shall, without the prior approval of Bluerock,
issue any press releases or otherwise make any public statements with respect to the Company or the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with
any national securities exchange so long as Carroll or such Affiliate has used reasonable efforts to obtain the approval of Bluerock
prior to issuing such press release or making such public disclosure.


 


16.19     
No Construction Against Drafter. This Agreement has been negotiated and prepared by Bluerock and Carroll 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.


 


Section
17.           
Insurance. During the Term, Property Manager, pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement,
shall procure and maintain insurance as is determined to be appropriate by the Management Committee (in form and with endorsements,
waivers and deductibles and with insurance companies, designated or approved by Bluerock) naming the Company (and the Subsidiary
owning the Property), Bluerock and Carroll as insureds thereunder.
