SECTION
5.                     
CERTAIN TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS


5.1            
All Awards. All Awards shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:


(a)             
Changes in Capital Structure. If the number of outstanding Shares is increased by means of a stock dividend payable
in Shares, a stock split or other subdivision or a reclassification of Shares, then, from and after the record date for such dividend,
split, subdivision or reclassification, the number and class of Shares subject to this Plan shall be increased or adjusted, as
applicable, in proportion to such increase in outstanding Shares. If the number of outstanding Shares is decreased by means of
a reverse stock split or other combination or a reclassification of Shares, then, from and after the record date for such reverse
split, combination or reclassification, the number and class of Shares subject to this Plan shall be decreased or adjusted, as
applicable, in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Shares.


(b)            
Certain Corporate Transactions. In the event of any change in the capital structure or business of the Company by
reason of any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, subdivision, combination, exchange of Shares or
any similar change affecting the Company’s capital structure or business, then the aggregate number and kind of Shares which
thereafter may be issued under this Plan shall be appropriately adjusted consistent with such change in such manner as the Board
may deem equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under
this Plan, and any such adjustment determined by the Board in good faith shall be binding and conclusive on the Company and all
Participants and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.


(c)             
Grant Date. Each Award Agreement shall specify the date of issuance of the Award (the “Grant Date”).


(d)            
Vesting. Each Award shall vest, and any restrictions thereunder shall lapse, as the case may be, at such times and
in such amounts as may be specified by the Board in the applicable Award Agreement.


(e)             
Nonassignability of Rights. Awards shall not be transferable during the period or periods set by the Board (the “Restricted
Period”) commencing on the Grant Date of such Award, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.


(f)             
Termination from the Company, the Business Manager or any Affiliate of the Company or Termination of the Business Management
Agreement. The Board shall establish, in respect of each Award when granted, the effect of a Termination or, if applicable,
the termination of the Business Management Agreement, on the rights and benefits thereunder and in so doing may, but need not,
make distinctions based upon the cause of Termination (such as retirement, death, disability or other factors) or which party effected
the Termination.


(g)             
Minimum Purchase Price. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if authorized but previously
unissued Shares are issued under this Plan, such Shares shall not be issued for a consideration which is less than as permitted
under Applicable Laws, and in no event shall such consideration be less than the par value per Share multiplied by the number of
Shares to be issued.


(h)            
Other Provisions. Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms, provisions, legends and conditions not inconsistent
with this Plan, as may be determined by the Board.




    5 


     


    

 


5.2            
Restricted Shares. Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:


(a)             
Grant. The Board may grant one or more Awards of Restricted Shares to any Participant. Each Award of Restricted Shares
shall specify the number of Shares to be issued to the Participant, the Grant Date and the restrictions imposed on the Shares including
the conditions of release or lapse of such restrictions. Upon the issuance of Restricted Shares, the Participant may be required
to furnish such additional documentation or other assurances as the Board may require to enforce the restrictions applicable thereto.


(b)            
Restrictions. Except as specifically provided elsewhere in this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, Restricted
Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily,
until the restrictions have lapsed and the rights to the Shares have vested. The Board may in its sole discretion provide for the
lapse of such restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions, in whole or in part, based on service,
performance or such other factors or criteria as the Board may determine.


(c)             
Rights as a Stockholder. Except as provided in this Section 5 and as otherwise determined by the Board, the
Participant shall have, with respect to Restricted Shares, all of the rights of a holder of Shares including, without limitation,
the right to receive any dividends, the right to vote such Shares and, subject to and conditioned upon the full vesting of shares
of the Restricted Shares, the right to tender such Shares. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine at the time of grant
that the payment of dividends or distributions shall be deferred until, and conditioned upon, the expiration of the applicable
Restricted Period.


(d)            
Forfeiture of Restricted Shares. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, upon
a Participant’s Termination or, if applicable, the termination of the Business Management Agreement, the Participant shall
automatically forfeit all Restricted Shares still subject to restriction.


5.3            
Restricted Share Units. Restricted Share Units shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:


(a)             
Grant. The Board may grant one or more Awards of Restricted Share Units to any Participant. Each Award of Restricted
Share Units represents a bookkeeping entry representing a right granted to a Participant under this Section 5.3 to receive
one Share, a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of one Share, or a combination thereof, as determined in the sole discretion
of the Board. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify the number of Awards to be granted to the Participant, the Grant Date
and the restrictions imposed on the Restricted Share Units including the conditions of release, vesting and/or the lapse of such
restrictions, and terms relating to settlement of Awards.


(b)            
Restrictions. Except as specifically provided elsewhere in this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, Restricted
Share Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily,
until the restrictions have lapsed and the rights to the Shares (or cash, as applicable) have vested. Furthermore, a Participant’s
right, if any, to receive cash or Shares upon termination of the Restricted Period may not be assigned or transferred except by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The Board may in its sole discretion provide for the lapse of such restrictions
in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions, in whole or in part, based on service, performance or such other
factors or criteria as the Board may determine.




    6 


     


    

 


(c)             
Rights as a Stockholder. Holders of Restricted Share Units shall have none of the rights of a Stockholder with respect
to such Restricted Share Units, or any Shares underlying any Award of Restricted Share Units. Holders of Restricted Share Units
are not entitled to receive distribution of rights in respect of such Shares, or to vote such Shares as the record owner thereof;
provided, however, that unless otherwise determined by the Board, (i) during the Restricted Period, Participants will be credited
with dividend equivalents equal in value to those declared and paid on Shares, on all Restricted Share Units granted to them, (ii) these
dividend equivalents will be regarded as having been reinvested in Restricted Share Units on the date of the Share dividend payments
based on the then Fair Market Value of the Shares thereby increasing the number of Restricted Share Units held by a Participant,
and (iii) such dividend equivalents will be paid only to the extent the underlying Awards vest.


(d)            
Forfeiture of Restricted Share Units. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement,
upon a Participant’s Termination or, if applicable, the termination of the Business Management Agreement, the Participant
shall automatically forfeit all Restricted Share Units still subject to restriction.


(e)             
Payment of Restricted Share Units. The payment of Restricted Share Units shall be made in Shares, unless otherwise
determined by the Board. The payment of Restricted Share Units shall be made as soon as practicable after vesting (but in any event
within two-and-one-half (2.5) months following the calendar year in which vesting occurs), except as otherwise provided in the
applicable Award Agreement and unless payment is deferred pursuant to a timely election permitted by the Board in compliance with
Code Section 409A.


SECTION
6.                     
DIRECTOR SHARES


6.1            
Automatic Grant. Without further action of the Board and except as otherwise determined by election of the Board
and/or a Non-Employee Director in accordance with a non-qualified deferred compensation program that complies with Code Section
409A, each Non-Employee Director shall receive an Award of Restricted Shares effective on the date of each annual Stockholders’
meeting, or in July of each year if no such meeting is held, in respect of a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value as of
the Grant Date equal to Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000); provided, however, that if the Board and/or a Non-Employee Director makes
a timely deferral election under a non-qualified deferred compensation program that complies with Code Section 409A, then in lieu
of Restricted Shares, the automatic grant may be in the form of Restricted Share Units. Notwithstanding Section 5.1(c), each such
date of receipt of Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units will be the Grant Date of such Award.


6.2            
Vesting. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1(d), automatic grants of Restricted Shares (or Restricted
Share Units, in accordance with a permitted deferral of the automatic grant) to Non-Employee Directors pursuant to Section 6.1
shall vest over a three-year period following the Grant Date in increments of 33-1/3% per annum. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
100% of any then unvested Restricted Shares (or Restricted Share Units, if applicable) issued to Non-Employee Directors pursuant
to Section 6.1 shall become fully vested upon the Company’s consummation of a Liquidity Event.


6.3            
Election. The Company shall pay to each individual who is a Non-Employee Director an annual fee in the amount set
from time to time by the Board (the “Retainer”). Each Non-Employee Director shall be entitled to receive
his or her Retainer exclusively in cash, exclusively in unrestricted Shares (“Director Shares”) or any
portion in cash and Director Shares, or on such other terms and conditions as may be authorized by the Company and permitted, without
penalty, under Code Section 409A. Each Non-Employee Director shall be given the opportunity, during the month in which the Non-Employee
Director first becomes a Non-Employee Director, and during each December thereafter, to elect among these choices for the balance
of the calendar year (in the case of the election made during the month the Non-Employee Director first becomes a Non-Employee
Director) and for the ensuing calendar year (in the case of a subsequent election made during any December). If the Non-Employee
Director chooses to receive at least some of his or her Retainer in Director Shares, the election shall also indicate the percentage
of the Retainer to be paid in Director Shares. If a Non-Employee Director makes no election during his or her first opportunity
to make an election, the Non-Employee Director shall be assumed to have elected to receive his or her entire Retainer in cash.




    7 


     


    

 


6.4            
Issuance. The Company shall make the first issuance of Director Shares to electing Directors on the first business
day following the last day of the full calendar quarter following such election. Subsequent issuances of Director Shares shall
be made on the first business day of each subsequent calendar quarter and shall be made to all persons who are Non-Employee Directors
on that day, except for any Non-Employee Director whose Retainer is to be paid entirely in cash. The number of Shares issuable
to those Non-Employee Directors on the relevant date indicated above shall equal:


(% x R/4)/P, where:


% = the percentage of the Non-Employee
Director’s Retainer that the Non-Employee Director elected or is deemed to have elected to receive in the form of Director
Shares, expressed as a decimal;


R = the Non-Employee Director’s
Retainer for the year during which the issuance occurs; and


P = the Fair Market Value.


SECTION
7.                     
SECURITIES LAWS


Nothing in this Plan or in any Award
or Award Agreement shall require the Company to issue any Shares with respect to any Award if, in the opinion of counsel for the
Company, that issuance could constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws. As a condition to the grant of any Award, the Company
may require the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s legal representatives,
heirs, legatees or distributees) to provide written representations concerning the Participant’s (or such other person’s)
intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the Shares covered by the Award and written covenants as to the manner
of disposal of such Shares as may be necessary or useful to ensure that the grant or disposition thereof will not violate the Securities
Act, any other law or any rule of any applicable securities exchange or securities association then in effect. The Company shall
not be required to register any Shares under the Securities Act or register or qualify any Shares under any state or other securities
laws.


SECTION
8.                     
EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER RELATIONSHIP


Nothing in this Plan or any Award shall
in any way interfere with or limit the right of the Company, the Business Manager or any Affiliate of the Company to terminate
any Participant’s employment or status as an officer, director or employee at any time, as applicable, or confer upon any
Participant any right to continue in the service of, the Company, the Business Manager or any Affiliate of the Company. Nothing
in this Plan shall interfere with the Company’s ability to terminate the Business Management Agreement in accordance with
its terms.

SECTION
9.                     
AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION OF THIS PLAN


The Board may at any time amend, suspend
or discontinue this Plan, provided that such amendment, suspension or discontinuance meets the requirements of Applicable Laws,
including without limitation, any applicable requirements for stockholder approval. Notwithstanding the above, an amendment, suspension
or discontinuation shall not be made if it would substantially impair the rights of any Participant under any Award previously
granted, without the Participant’s consent, except to conform this Plan and Awards granted to the requirements of Applicable
Laws. The provisions of this Plan relating to Awards for Non-Employee Directors may not be amended more than once each six months.
The Board may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Sections 5.1(a)
and 5.1(b) or as otherwise specifically provided herein, no such amendment or other action by the Board shall substantially
impair the rights of any Participant without the Participant’s consent. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the
contrary, if the Board determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Board may adopt such amendment
to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures
with retroactive effect), or take any other actions that the Board determines are necessary or appropriate, without the consent
of the Participant, to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits
provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.


SECTION
10.                  
LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE BOARD


No person constituting, or member of
the group constituting, the Board shall be liable for any act or omission on such person’s part, including but not limited
to the exercise of any power or discretion given to such member under this Plan, except for those acts or omissions resulting from
such member’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company shall indemnify each present and future person constituting,
or member of the group constituting, the Board against, and each person or member of the group constituting the Board shall be
entitled without further act on his or her part to indemnity from the Company for, all expenses (including the amount of judgments
and the amount of approved settlements made with a view to the curtailment of costs of litigation) reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with or arising out of any action, suit or proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by law and by the Charter
and Bylaws of the Company.


SECTION
11.                  
SEVERABILITY


If any provision of this Plan is held
to be illegal or invalid for any reason, that illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining portions of this Plan, but
such provision shall be fully severable and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had
never been included in this Plan. Such an illegal or invalid provision shall be replaced by a revised provision that most nearly
comports to the substance of the illegal or invalid provision. If any of the terms or provisions of this Plan or any Award Agreement
conflict with the requirements of Applicable Laws, those conflicting terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent
they conflict with Applicable Law.


SECTION
12.                  
SECTION 409A OF THE CODE


Awards granted under the Plan are intended
to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that the Plan or an Award is not exempt from the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, the Plan and such Award is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and, in each
case, the Plan and Awards shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on a Participant
by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

SECTION
13.                  
WITHHOLDING


The Company shall have the right to deduct
from any payment to be made to a Participant, or to otherwise require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any Shares or the payment
of any cash hereunder, payment by the Participant of, any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld. In addition,
